Hey there I’ trying to re-install MySQL server and facing this kind of error
The problem you are facing may be as a result of you installing both mysql-common
and mysql-community-client-plugins
individually hence showing that the other one was not installed and is required.Example when you run sudo apt install mysql-common
it showes
Depends: mysql-community-client-plugins
and vice versa.
Therefore, to solve this problem install both using a single command like
sudo apt install mysql-community-client-plugins mysql-common
@jwnasambu i have tried this several times and the results are not helping as u can see==>my sql server installation - Pastebin.com
Kindly is this the entire log after running sudo apt install mysql-community-client-plugins mysql-common
? am not seeing the exact error thrown.
@jwnasambu it doesnt bring any errors as such but when when i type in the command it stops from there showing
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Blockquote
thats the last line it shows meaning both
mysql-common
and
mysql-community-client-plugin
have not been installed …
