Package: ipplan
Version: 4.92a-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

New install: Configured mysql via debconf ok but needed to amend
/etc/ipplan.apache.conf to re-enable aliases to /usr/share/ipplan before the
ipplan web page could be accessed, contrary to instructions in
/usr/share/doc/ipplan/README.Debian which says that the alias has been disabled
only to prevent it from affecting every virtual host.

As mysql was configured via debconf skipped to step 2, as per instuctions.
Details in /etc/ipplan/local_conf.php appeared to be correct but web page login
required user 'admin' & pw 'admin' which don't appear to be documented anywhere.

Then when trying to display the sql to apply to the mysql db to complete the
 installation I got the "Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial
communication packet', system error: 111" error message.

mysql server running ok for other packages i.e. nagios & cacti.

Unable to complete installation, therefore package unusable.

I suspect that the problem is due to ambiguities and omissions in the
instructions detailed in /usr/share/ipplan/README.Debian file e.g. step 2)
"...and maybe the username..."  How is anyone to know whether this needs to be
modified or not because no criterion is given?
