I’m attempting to upgrade my mysql server from 5.7 to 8.0 on ubuntu but I am getting an error on the install. I followed the instructions in the comments here: How do I update MySQL 5.7 to the new MySQL 8.0?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Here’s what I’ve done.
wget http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-apt-config_0.8.27-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.27-1_all.deb
- selected "MySQL Server & Cluster"
- selected "mysql-8.0"
- selected “Ok"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
