When I try to find a solution to this problem, I usually find something related to libmysqlclient18 but I don't think it has anything to do with this problem. At least the solutions don't work here.
Currently the server is on a VPS with Ubuntu 14.04 and Ajenti control panel (nginx, php-fpm, mysql 5.5).
