1.5.7, 1.5.8 & DEV Install issues

Hi Sebastian,
Is “password” in red supposed to be my password or is password the password?
-
Here’s what I got after running those commands. You’re not going to hurt my feelings if you suggest I remove or default mysql and associated users
Thank you for your help.

It’s supposed to be written like this. Don’t put in your password as command parameter as it will ask you on the console when calling it. You will see.
Sorry, I forgot to mention you need to run those as root!
sudo -i systemctl stop mysql mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables & mysqladmin -u root password mysqladmin -u root shutdown systemctl start mysql mysql -u root -p

Hello, sorry for the delay here’s what I got:

Here’s the rest of the command string:

@Sharo Seems like you are not able to stop the mysql service. Please run
sudo -i ps ax | grep -i -e mysql -e mariadb systemctl stop mysql systemctl stop mysqld systemctl stop mariadb ps ax | grep -i -e mysql -e mariadb
to see if we can shut it down properly this way.

@Sharo Well, database seems to be down now, so try:
sudo -i mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables & mysqladmin -u root password ... mysqladmin -u root shutdown systemctl start mysql mysql -u root -p

I’m just going to reinstall Ubuntu 16.04 followed by creating a timeshift restore point pre 1.5.7 fog installation.
Could you point me to an updated install guide?
Thank you for your help.

@Sharo It’s not that hard to get this back up. No need to reinstall just because of that. Shall we do a shared desktop session? See speak bubble in the top right corner.
