This is preventing mysql from starting.<br>

I suspect you have a file named mythtv-tweaks.cnf in

Edit this file and comment out (just put # at start of

table_cache=128 was deprecated a long time ago around mysql version
5.5, mythbuntu 16.04 (and orher *buntu variants) now has mysql
version 5.7. It was replaced with table_open_cache - I have never
tested with this, hence just commented out. <br>
