Well i figure it out...
I added the path in the LXC apparmor and I reloaded app armor... but nothing. I was missing this:
sudo apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld
After I added the path and put this in... presto! it started up...
I have done a ton of research and killed this container more times than I'd like to admit... so I'm giving up and asking for help! I have an LXC running ubuntu 22.04.5 with MySQL installed... this thing has been rock solid for months... now...
