Mysql сървър спря неочаквано на моя нов екземпляр на Ubuntu 18.04 и получи същата грешка при опит за стартиране.
Job for mysql.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
При изпълнение на командата systemctl status mysql.service
● mysql.service - MySQL Community Server

След почти 6 часа търсене в интернет най-накрая намерих решението.
sudo chmod -R u+rwx /etc/mysql/
sudo chown -R mysql.mysql /etc/mysql/
