* Stopping MySQL database server

Mysqld [ OK ]

* Starting MySQL database server

mysqld [fail]

invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed.

dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.1 (--configure):

subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server:

mysql-server depends on mysql-server-5.1; however:

Package mysql-server-5.1 is not configured yet.

dpkg: error processing mysql-server (--configure):

dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.

我无法在任何地方找到满意的解决方案.

许多网站告诉重新安装它,但它无法正常工作.

任何帮助将不胜感激.

谢谢..

这对我有用：

apt-get purge mysql-server

apt-get purge mysql-common

rm -rf /var/log/mysql

rm -rf /var/log/mysql.*

rm -rf /var/lib/mysql

rm -rf /etc/mysql

# and then:

apt-get install mysql-server --fix-missing --fix-broken

虽然它也会删除mysql上的所有依赖项.

它还将删除现有数据库,先备份！
