Version '5.7.26*' for 'mysql-server' was not found in ubuntu:bionic-20190612

[shakaib-arif]

It seems there is an issue with the mysql-server current version in the docker file because building an image give the following error.

E: Version '5.7.26*' for 'mysql-server' was not found

I have found on the official website that 5.7.26 is not available to download rather 5.7.28 is available. So, I have changed the version to MYSQL_VERSION=5.7.28 it worked flawlessly.

Just change the third command in Dockerfile

ENV MYSQL_USER=mysql \
    MYSQL_VERSION=8.0 \
    MYSQL_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/mysql \
    MYSQL_RUN_DIR=/run/mysqld \
    MYSQL_LOG_DIR=/var/log/mysql

This is basically using the 8.0 version of mysql

@KriAga I have changed the same command to 5.7.28 back then to make it work as 5.7.26 was not available to download at that time. Also, I did try the change which you have suggested but it doesn't work either unfortunately.

Currently, I have tried to build again with 5.7.28 but it failed because now it's not available to download.
So, I think whoever is going to build the image from Dockerfile first needs to verify the currently available version to download. Then change the value of MYSQL_VERSION version accordingly.
