Package: mysql-server-5.5 Version: 5.5.23+dfsg-2 Severity: normal Hi,
I run into this bug today: Setting up mysql-server-5.5 (5.5.23+dfsg-2) ... /lib/lsb/init-functions: line 428: FANCYTTY: unbound variable invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "stop" failed. /lib/lsb/init-functions: line 428: FANCYTTY: unbound variable invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.5 (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server: mysql-server depends on mysql-server-5.5; however: Package mysql-server-5.5 is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing mysql-server (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: mysql-server-5.5 mysql-server E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) In /lib/lsb/init-functions, at line 428, there is: FANCYTTY=$([ -e /etc/default/rcS ] && . /etc/default/rcS && echo $FANCYTTY) As FANCYTTY is not defined in my /etc/default/rcS and init script is called with "set -e", the init script fails. I will raise the severity because this bug does not only happen when console is not working (as reported initially) Regards, Vincent -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages mysql-server-5.5 depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.43 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.13-32 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbi-perl 1.612-1 Perl Database Interface (DBI) ii libgcc1 1:4.7.0-10 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.7.0-10 GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian5 Linux Standard Base 4.1 init scrip ii mysql-client-5.5 5.5.23+dfsg-2 MySQL database client binaries ii mysql-common 5.5.23+dfsg-2 MySQL database common files, e.g. ii mysql-server-core-5.5 5.5.23+dfsg-2 MySQL database server binaries ii passwd 1:4.1.5.1-1 change and administer password and ii perl 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii psmisc 22.16-1 utilities that use the proc file s Versions of packages mysql-server-5.5 recommends: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1 simple mail user agent ii libhtml-template-p 2.91-1 module for using HTML templates wi Versions of packages mysql-server-5.5 suggests: pn tinyca <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid/mysql-server-5_5 [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.paranoid/mysql-server-5_5' /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/mysql-server-5_5 [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/mysql-server-5_5' /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/mysql-server-5_5 [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/mysql-server-5_5' -- debconf information: mysql-server/error_setting_password: mysql-server-5.5/postrm_remove_databases: false mysql-server-5.5/nis_warning: mysql-server-5.5/really_downgrade: false mysql-server-5.5/start_on_boot: true mysql-server/password_mismatch: mysql-server/no_upgrade_when_using_ndb: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
