I upgraded my VPS with the provider Contabo, and since then, I have been experiencing issues. Unfortunately, they have not been responsive or provided any support.
when i do command : service mysql start, it return
The full MySQL error message was : DBI connect failed : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) ?
Command : sudo systemctl status mysql , gives:
mysql.service - MySQL Community Server

I tried restart "sudo systemctl start mysql ", but shows:
sudo systemctl start mysql
Job for mysql.service failed because the
control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status
mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
the systemctl status mysql.service gives the same mentioned before. if any one know how to fix this without losing my websites in the VPS, please help i have like 6 domians in this VPN and the service provider (Contabo) not helping. its been 48 hours and the financial losses continue to mount with each passing hour.
