What to do with --force?
3
I'm trying to do sudo apt upgrade and I get:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
Then do sudo dpkg --configure -a and I get:
Setting up mysql-server-5.7 (5.7.25-0ubuntu0.18.04.2) ...
Checking if update is needed.
This installation of MySQL is already upgraded to 5.7.25, use --force if you still need to run mysql_upgrade
that stays there for a long time. I have never used --force nor encounter a problem of upgrading mysql so I do not know what to do. Help please
UPDATE: using sudo dpkg -C I get:
The following packages are only half configured, probably due to problems
configuring them the first time. The configuration should be retried using
dpkg --configure <package> or the configure menu option in dselect:
mysql-server-5.7 MySQL database server binaries and system database setup
So, something is wrong with mysql, but I don't know why because I have used it normally before...
