Let's force it!sudo apt-get purge mysql-* mariadb-*sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql /var/log/mysql /tmp/mysql.sock
Then continue with reinstalling mysqlsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install mysql-server-8.0

is mysql running? sudo systemctl status mysql?
Let's also clean previous cloudpanel installation:sudo dpkg --remove --force-all cloudpanel
Thensudo apt-get install -fsudo dpkg --configure -a
to repair possible broken packages
and remove cpsudo rm -rf /etc/cloudpanel /opt/cloudpanel
no, it's inactive; and curious how to active it again?
sudo systemctl start mysql
is mysql still running?
sudo systemctl stop mysqlsudo apt-get purge mysql-server-8.0 mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server-core-8.0sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql /var/log/mysqlsudo apt-get autoremovesudo apt-get autocleanThen let's try to reinstall MySQL
