Hello Maryse, 

Before following the provided steps in configuring monitoring to monitor MySQL, did you already installed the "Monitoring Agent"? If yes and you still don't see any logs, you can use the following command to check the agent status: $ sudo service stackdriver-agent status. Also try to restarting the agent: $ sudo service stackdriver-agent restart.

If the restart fails, reinstall the agent. See the following section for details on reinstalling the agent. 

I will also recommend checking syslogs to see if the agent daemon has written error messages to the logs. The Monitoring agent on Linux is a collectd package and it logs messages to /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages. The log messages are prefixed by collectd or stackdriver-agent. Also see the troubleshooting guide for common error you may see in the logs, the meaning and how to resolve it. 

I hope this information is helpful.
