Can't start mysql service [closed]
I can't restart my mysql service from my ubuntu server. Here is the error :

I've tried to restart the mysql service (sudo service mysql restart). The socket seem to be missing, so I looked for how to create it and all the solutions I find is to restart the mysql service... How can I fix this error?
Run mysqld --help
and check, if it reports any problems with config
Check logs in /var/log/mysql
Try runnig it directly and check errors:
mkdir /var/run/mysqld/
chown mysql: /var/run/mysqld/
mysqld --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
