Question
After upgrading to Ubuntu20 from Ubuntu18, mysql is not working.
I upgraded from Ubuntu 18 to Ubuntu 20. mySQL upgrade failed during the upgrade.
After the upgrade, I again tried to install mysql-server. I’m getting the below error:
Error while setting value 'STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION' to 'sql_mode'.
Command used:
sudo apt install mysql-server
I used the above command after upgrade to Ubuntu20.
I even tried to edit the configuration, but that didn’t help.
[mysqld]
sql_mode="STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"
Added the above two lines in /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf.

Hi there,
It looks like that the
sql_modevalue might already be specified in some of your configuration files already.I could suggest using the
grepcommand to search for any references ofsql_modeand update them accordingly:The values are mostlikely specified in the `/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf file.
I was able to replicate the problem on Ubuntu 20.x with the
sql_modevalues from the error.Regards, Bobby
