I'd like mysql to start on boot but it does not.

Now in order to run it I need to run:

sudo service mysql start

Each time that I power on my computer, which is annoying.

How to resolve this?

a) This did not help

 sudo update-rc.d mysql remove
 sudo update-rc.d mysql defaults

b) It did not help to change

bind-address= 0.0.0.0

in mysql.cnf

c) It did not help to copy a new mysql file from this thread mysql does not start automatically

None of the solutions helped. mysql does not start after boot. But it works fine when starting by hand.
