[Bug 420366] Re: package mysql-server-5.0 5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

Hello,
Yes, I know it was running because I was using it to test trouble ticket and
hardware management systems when I was running 9.04.  Since upgrading to
9.10, I've been getting the error when upgrading packages.  Going to
/etc/init.d and starting mysql, I get the following error:

./mysql start
 * Starting MySQL database server mysqld
                                         [ OK ]
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using
password: YES)'
