Cannot install mysql-server (5.5.22) on clean ubuntu 12.04 LTS server
- by Christian
I have a clean minimal install of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server 64-bit (just a root user and nothing alse installed). I tried to install the mysql-server with the following command:
apt-get install mysql-server
The installation aborts with the following error:
The following NEW packages will be installed:

I am completely lost because I have tried everything on the web to solve my problem (clearning the install, reconfiguring with dpkg, manually editing the my.cnf). I also set up a new clean install but nothing helped. What am I doing wrong?
New information: The file /var/log/upstart/mysql.log contains the following error after the installation:
AppArmor parser error for /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld in /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/global at line 17: Could not open 'tunables/proc'
