I tried the following, but neither solved my problem: Post #24: Remove --skip-bdb. In my case, this setting isn't in /etc/mysql/my.cnf. I wasn't getting any errors related to bdb.
Post #25: Starting mysql while apparmor is off. Mysql still fails to start. When I uninstall and reinstall mysql, the installation fails every time. The workaround I used was to install VirtualBox with Ubuntu inside of it and mysql running in it. This means I don't have mysql running on my localhost and need to connect to an IP, but its working for now. Would sure like to get it running on my system though.
