Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.
This is the error reported in the logs:
ERROR: Unable to start MySQL server:
mysqld: [ERROR] Found option without preceding group in config file
/etc/mysql/my.cnf at line 23!
mysqld: [ERROR] Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted!
All config options need to be inside (after) a group definition, that
starts like "[somename]" and then the option.
The mysql config is built pulling together other files via the include
directives. Could you please check your configuration files for such a
scenario as outlined above?
** Changed in: mysql-5.7 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
