it's ok, this is really testing my knowledge on server maintenance though 😅

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 mysql
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-8.0

And finger crossed will be running!
sudo systemctl status mysql

Such relief... great! btw, maybe previous database now lost. But I assume you have still a backup/snapshot from the initial state.

Let's try again with cloudPanel

is mysql running? sudo systemctl status mysql?

Let's also clean previous cloudpanel installation:
sudo dpkg --remove --force-all cloudpanel

Then
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo dpkg --configure -a
to repair possible broken packages

and remove cp
sudo rm -rf /etc/cloudpanel /opt/cloudpanel

no, it's inactive; and curious how to active it again?

sudo systemctl start mysql

Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-server-8.0

it keep saying there's an error there, so annoying with this one.

then:
sudo systemctl unmask mysql.service

and again:
sudo systemctl start mysql
