is mysql still running?
sudo systemctl stop mysql
sudo apt-get purge mysql-server-8.0 mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server-core-8.0 sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql /var/log/mysql sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get autoclean
Then let's try to reinstall MySQL sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install mysql-server-8.0
Hopefully ithis succeeds! Verify with: sudo systemctl status mysql

it's ok, this is really testing my knowledge on server maintenance though 😅
Let's force it! sudo apt-get purge mysql-* mariadb-* sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql /var/log/mysql /tmp/mysql.sock
Then continue with reinstalling mysql sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install mysql-server-8.0
And finger crossed will be running! sudo systemctl status mysql

Such relief... great! btw, maybe previous database now lost. But I assume you have still a backup/snapshot from the initial state.
Let's try again with cloudPanel

Let's also clean previous cloudpanel installation: sudo dpkg --remove --force-all cloudpanel
Then sudo apt-get install -f sudo dpkg --configure -a to repair possible broken packages
and remove cp sudo rm -rf /etc/cloudpanel /opt/cloudpanel
