[Bug 516437] Re: Try to install mysql-server and get hundreds of blocking 'logger: [-x] [-p log_facility] [-t tag] message' messages.
If /usr/bin/logger has always been an ELF executable I guess my version had been locally modified as you presume. Unfortunately I don't know how and why it was modified. What's sure is that my Ubuntu 8.04 has packages from other unofficial sources. -- Try to install mysql-server and get hundreds of blocking 'logger: [-x] [-p log_facility] [-t tag] message' messages. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516437 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.1 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 516437] [NEW] Try to install mysql-server and get hundreds of blocking 'logger: [-x] [-p log_facility] [-t tag] message' messages.
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mysql-server Release: Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) Package: mysql-server, 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4 Expected: usual installation process Command run: sudo apt-get install mysql-server What happened instead: The installation hangs and hundreds of identical messages appear on the terminal: 'logger: [-x] [-p log_facility] [-t tag] message' Without the command 'killall logger' that must be run quickly and several times, the system finally hangs (drawn by all these new logger processes) and the only solution is a manual reboot or reset. My OS is up to date.

I finally found waht the problem is: the script '/usr/bin/logger'. In a brand new Ubuntu 8.04 installation this is actually an ELF executable. But on my old Ubuntu 8.04 (but regularly updated) OS is was a shell script. I simply inserted on the first line the command 'exit' to avoid the script to run its bugs. It solved the problem. Finally I copied the executable from another and fresher Ubuntu 8.04 installation. Yet I don't know why '/usr/bin/logger' hadn't been updated correctly... -- Try to install mysql-server and get hundreds of blocking 'logger: [-x] [-p log_facility] [-t tag] message' messages. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516437 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.1 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
