Hi Reinhold!

Hi Reinhold!

You have to replace Mysql with MariaDB.

In command terminal type:
sudo apt install mariadb-client mariadb-server mairiadb-common

Once installed Mysql should have been replaced with MariaDB. Then try to start Cqrlog again.
IF it does not start remove folder ~/.config/cqrlog to get clean start. I assume you do not have any qsos yet in Cqrlog.

If you have qsos in log DO NOT DO REMOVE as it will remove all your qsos.

You can remove folder while in command terminal typing:
rm -rf ~/.config/cqrlog

After remove you can make fresh start for Cqrlog (but it might be you do not need this, just the MariaDB install may be enough)
