问题
My server is running on Ubuntu 16.04 I hade some issue with my MySQL configuration, so I've decided to clean up and reinstall the MySQL server.
After this command:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
This is what i got at the end of the process:
update-alternatives: using /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf to provide /etc/mysql/my.cnf (my.cnf) in auto mode
Renaming removed key_buffer and myisam-recover options (if present)
Job for mysql.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed.

I meet same problem today, and finally I found out this is because in my.cnf there is something like that:
log_slow_queries = /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log
But in Mysql 5.7, log_slow_queries is deprecated, change to
slow_query_log_file = /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log
solved my problem.

Make sure there is no other mysql process running. I had an dead mysql process running, which caused in a conflict / upgrade error.
ps -aux | grep 3306 If there are any "dead" mysql processes, kill them like this `sudo kill -15 {pid here}.
Then run the upgrade again.

You may want to try installing from source so you can try to pinpoint what is exactly causing the problem.
First remove all partially installed mysql packages using:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql\*
Then follow this guide:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/source-installation.html
Alternatively, you could install MariaDB which is a drop-in replacement for mysql:
$ sudo apt-get install mariadb-server
I have started using MariaDB on Ubuntu instead of MySQL and it works well for me.
