I installed CQRLOG from the library available in the Synaptic package manager that comes with Ubuntu MATE. It installed OK, but when I attempt to run it, I get an error message saying "Error during connection to database: Server Connect failed", then a second dialogue box that says:

"* Database Problem
MySQL could not be started. Please check to see if the MySQL server is installed properly"

Hi
Just made first release (and pull request) of alternative remote fldigi.
It uses XmlRpc with communication between fldigi and cqrlog.

Biggest differences are:
1) you can see worked_before/DXCC status and QRZ/HamQth data like in normal cqrlogging
2) you can run fldigi on different computer than cqrlog (both must be networked)

Anybody there out who is using K3 with CQRlog and is experienced in RTTY and digimodes? I want to return to these modes after a very long pause. Also wanted to use true FSK (not AFSK) for RTTY. My rig is the Elecraft K-line (K3, P3, KPA500 and KAT500). It seems that fldigi would be not the right choice because of FSK mode absence (they also don't appear to implement FSK, also stock excuses on timing issues ... but Makoto JE3HHT did it in his MMTTY) - so what program?

I have a computer that dual boots Xubuntu 16.04 & Kubuntu 16.10. I had all my ham programs on the Kubuntu partition. This morning KDE would not start. I decided to move everything to the Xubuntu partition. Everything worked except CQRLOG. I get the same errors at startup that DDOWNS described in his post of 3/23. Here is the mysql.err file from ~/.config/database:
