Why do you continue to post in this thread when it is obvious everyone here uses the standard and supported method of installing MySQL and no one uses VirtualMin?

Other than continuing to ask the same question and being too stubborn to admit you've screwed up, you have done nothing but complain.

There are very good reasons no one here uses VirtualMin to install MySQL. VirtualMin doesn't do anything you can't do with standard and supported tools. And the latter almost always do it better.
