This question has been asked verbatim about a dozen times on this forum, and yet none of the solutions have worked for me.
I'm trying to install mysql and everytime I try to install I get this message shortly, after being asked to provide a password for mysql root, while setting up mysql-server-5.5:

I'm trying to setup Simple Machines Forum which uses MySQL, which I had installed but it wasn't being used for anything.I forgot the passwords and what not and figured it would be easiest to just start fresh, so I purged all mysql stuff and installed again.It won't start now. It says "Starting MySQL database server: mysqld . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hi guys!
I appear to have an issue with a broken package. I'm using 12.04 LTS on an MSI netbook and every time I install a new package I get this error:
Setting up isc-dhcp-server (4.1.ESV-R4-0ubuntu5.2) ...

invoke-rc.d: initscript isc-dhcp-server, action "start" failed.
I have been having trouble with my MySql setup. This morning it was a working mysql server I added a database and some data with phpMyAdmin then things started to go wrong.
I became unable to connect getting ERROR 2002 unable to connect to socket.
I have completley unistalled mysql server (as best I can) and deleted database files. And now I cannot reinstall it.
I think yum is having problems installing MySQL 5.1 because there is already a pre-existing MySQL 5.5 installation.
I wanted to cleanly remove MySQL 5.5 (I had problems with 5.5 with PHP and Python).
