package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.37-1ubuntu5 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
new pre-installation script returned error exit
I cannot stop the server by hand either. I found out the script must run

The problem was the mysql server wouldn't stop. I killed all mysqld
processed and then tried again; it worked.

AFAIK and Understand the installation or upgrade script must first check
for the running instance of the program, prompt for closing it or
close/kill it forcibly. I used to write RPM scripts and hope that must
have been done in .deb too. The issue was last time when the upgrade
