MySQL Server 8.0.13 won't start: unrecognized service












0















I just installed MySQL Server 8.0.13 on Ubuntu 18.04 and everything seemed to go fine until I tried to start the server. I have an identical installation that is working fine, and I followed the exact same installation procedure, but it just won't start. More detail below--any help appreciated!



doctor@ED-Workstation:~$ sudo service mysql start
mysql: unrecognized service
doctor@ED-Workstation:~$ sudo service mysql-server start
mysql-server: unrecognized service
doctor@ED-Workstation:~$ apt policy mysql-server
mysql-server:
Installed: 8.0.13-1ubuntu18.04
Candidate: 8.0.13-1ubuntu18.04
Version table:
*** 8.0.13-1ubuntu18.04 500
500 http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu bionic/mysql-8.0 amd64 Packages

500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/main amd64 Packages
5.7.21-1ubuntu1 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages


What am I missing?



This is a Windows 10 computer with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS installed from the Microsoft Store. I have an identical installation that's working fine. I've tried a fresh install of Ubuntu and MySQL again, but something is preventing MySQL from starting.



Help! Thanks.
