MySQL Upgrade Errors

Ubuntu releases new MySQL packages periodically as needed. If you have a Security Onion 16.04 installation and run soup to install these new MySQL packages, you may see a few error messages as described below.

Error messages regarding MySQL upgrade process

If your installation has MySQL disabled (because you haven't yet run Setup or you've run Setup and chosen Forward Node or Storage Node), then you may also see error messages like the following:

mysql_upgrade: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) while connecting to the MySQL server
Upgrade process encountered error and will not continue.
mysql_upgrade failed with exit status 11
dpkg: error processing package mysql-server-5.7 (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
                                                                                                          dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server:
 mysql-server depends on mysql-server-5.7; however:
  Package mysql-server-5.7 is not configured yet.

dpkg: error processing package mysql-server (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

Errors were encountered while processing:
 mysql-server-5.7
 mysql-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

You can resolve this issue using the following one-liner:

sudo systemctl enable mysql.service && sudo apt -f install && sudo systemctl stop mysql.service && sudo systemctl disable mysql.service

Error message regarding MySQL 5.5

Older versions of soup may result in error messages regarding MySQL 5.5. Newer versions of soup have been updated to correct this. If you are running an older version of soup and see error messages like this, they can be ignored as Security Onion 16.04 uses MySQL 5.7:
