MySQL failed to restart on Ubuntu 16.04

I'm trying to restart MySQL after saving a script. The error states

Job for mysql.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

When running systemctl status mysql.service here's what I get:

Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mysql.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: activating (start-post) (Result: exit-code) since Isn 2016-09-26 17:15:28 MYT; 17s ago
  Process: 17478 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/mysqld (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
  Process: 17474 ExecStartPre=/usr/share/mysql/mysql-systemd-start pre (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
 Main PID: 17478 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE);         : 17479 (mysql-systemd-s)
   CGroup: /system.slice/mysql.service

             ├─17479 /bin/bash /usr/share/mysql/mysql-systemd-start post
             └─17516 sleep 1

I'm not sure where to start fixing this.

This is the script I saved prior to restarting mysql:

[mysqld]
innodb_rollback_on_timeout=1
innodb_lock_wait_timeout=600
max_connections=350
log-bin=mysql-bin
binlog-format = 'ROW'

Running journalctl -xe | tail -20 gives me this:

Fatal Error:

MYQL is failing to start because as the Journalctl output indicates, but you haven't provided the mandatory server-id. Add the mandatory id as indicated in the code below.

/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
Change from:

log-bin=mysql-bin
binlog-format = 'ROW'

Change to:

server-id=master-01
log-bin=mysql-bin
binlog-format = 'ROW'

This will get your server running while you address the proper formatting of your desired logging.

non-fatal warnings:

For the open files limit of your error you will have to either decrease the demand in the configuration you edited or increase the system's limits with:

/etc/security/limits.conf

* soft nofile [new number]
* hard nofile [new number]

The first column describes WHO the limit is to apply for. '' is a wildcard, meaning all users. To raise the limits for root, you have to explicitly enter 'root' instead of ''.

Got the same error, but in my case simply the disk was full. Make also sure to check this.

df -h --total
