From mysql log:

2018-10-27T12:00:06.932543Z 0 [ERROR] Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use
2018-10-27T12:00:06.932547Z 0 [ERROR] Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 3306 ?
2018-10-27T12:00:06.932559Z 0 [ERROR] Aborting

[Joshua Powers (powersj)]

Can you check that you do not have another server already running? Based on the error message it looks like something is already using port 3306.

Marking incomplete.

[Nitin Bodke (nitin.bodke)]

Yes, will check n let you know.
