Again, ssh into the docker and in this case, removing the mysqld.pid solved the problem:

 

 

[~] # docker exec -it e2de9fa5c446 /bin/bash
user@e2de9fa5c446:/# cd /var/run
user@e2de9fa5c446:/var/run# cd mysqld
user@e2de9fa5c446:/var/run/mysqld# ls
mysqld.pid  mysqld.sock
user@e2de9fa5c446:/var/run/mysqld# rm mysqld.pid
