Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 Mysql 5.6 install not working
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I read a lot about the issues here with mysql server and client 5.6 on ubuntu 14.04 and tried all the things but I cannot get it to work.
Following steps I already took
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql
sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.6
error from installation
Setting up mysql-common (5.6.25-3+deb.sury.org~trusty+1) ...
update-alternatives: error: alternative path /etc/mysql/my.cnf.fallback doesn't
exist
dpkg: error processing package mysql-common (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-common
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Can anyone help here?
thanks a lot

Your problem is very similar to the one mentioned in the thread - askubuntu.com/questions/643251/… You might want to try the solution listed in it.

yep I already tried this, but this does not work for me either. I found another discussion where it was mentioned that a VM needs more RAM, I also increased it to 2048 but without success nvm I'm now bootstrapped a container with debian then :/

file that was missing

IMPORTANT NOTE
AFTER PURGING AND REMOVING MYSQL. RESTART THE MACHINE.
I REPEAT "RESTART THE MACHINE"
RESTART IS THE FINAL SOLUTION. I have spent sleepless nights figuring why it's not solving.
