[Bug 1036043] Re: package mysql-server-5.5 5.5.24-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit code 1

[diegotc]

This problem appears after a mysql update. I suppose I got problems
during the installation.

This is the solution for solving this problem.
sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common mysql-client-5.5 mysql-server-5.5
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean

sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql

sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-common mysql-client

This answer I got it thanks to askubuntu.com.
