mysql Unable to connect to ZM db

[Baylink]

Wait; an install script to jack MySQL up and slide Maria underneath?

Where's that at?

I just did a clean install of Ubuntu Server 16.04 and Zoneminder 1.31.1 from the iconner repository and am still receiving this error. I used the Easy Way instructions for Ubuntu 16.04. Is the repository still pushing the error or is this a new error?

I have had the error "the mysql has disappeared"......still and for a while now. I then built ZM from source from the master branch on github. that worked.
