I just hit this bug while installing 12.04 from a flashdrive basically it was a simple case of user error, however it is also a program error too, because it is not effective for a program to crash as a means to tell the user that they did something wrong. if a program has a choice between crashing or checking to see if a file is locked, then it should certainly do the check... this allows the program to exit gracefully and clean-up and most especially it allows for proper informational notices. The alternative is that the user is left perplexed, the bug database gets flooded, and users are forced to reboot because of a simple error Steps to Repro (this is only one of many possible scenarios) 1) Start the Installer (ubiquity) 2) While on the Welcome choose language screen, open a terminal 3) sudo apt-get install lm-sensors (or any other not currently installed program) result: crash expected: error message telling me the resource is locked note: after quiting the installer... find that system is in unusable state and must reboot someone needs to give that program a dose of Ubuntu Community Spirit :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
Hopefully another data point: I accidentally started an install of the ppm package using sudo apt-get install ppm (I had the wrong package name), and it appeared to try to install kexec-tools. It hung during setup of kexec-tools (similar to http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1214718.html), so I interrupted the process.

Interesting. So this looks like processes hanging around because they're waiting for users or other machines/network interaction. We probably need to handle this failure with a dpkg frontend that shows the user the current lock holder and gives them the option to break the lock and/or kill the holder. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
Colin points out this is probably related to bug #469354: dpkg- preconfigure doesn't take the dpkg lock, so if there's an aptd hanging around waiting for debconf answers, we'll get a collision on the debconf lock. So there seem to be two parts to this bug: - we need to figure out why there's an aptd hanging around waiting for debconf answers (possibly a UI bug?) - we need to do more graceful error handling when there *is* something else holding the lock, since this may be legitimate - possibly by having dpkg-preconfigure try to take the dpkg lock instead and then recognizing this as a valid condition instead of crashing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
Excerpts from Thomas Hood's message of Wed Mar 21 21:12:53 UTC 2012: There is no shortage of duplicates of this report. I am inclined to guess that in many cases faulty package scripts are leaving processes around which fail to release the config.dat lock under some circumstances. In order to test this hypothesis I'd like to go back in time and in each of the 400-odd cases find the rogue process and then figure out why it's running on the user's system. Obviously that's impossible. But perhaps we will have chances to do this in the future. I certainly don't think that the *majority* of cases has arisen from a package management command being run from a terminal while another package management process runs. I was just asking in #30 whether or not there are higher-level locks that should be taken by such commands, resulting in earlier and more useful error messages. It seems not. In that case I'd say that for now the error message (debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable) should be extended to give some advice about how to fix the problem... and possibly also to ask for information to be contributed here. Perhaps an apport bug pattern could be written which would look for what processes are holding the locks? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

* In one of the dupes (#380491) the submitter says that running tasksel (not as root) simultaneously with dpkg --configure --pending (as root) results in the error message. * In #419100 the submitter suggests that update-manager is conflicting with itself when spawned in Automatic update / Install security updates without confirmation mode. * In #482523 the submitter says that the installer was also running. * I am able to trigger the message (debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable) by doing the following: while : ; do dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical package-that-calls- debconf ; done update-manager # Then agree to Install Updates #434286 also mentions use of dpkg-reconfigure. (So far I have read the dupes up through the six hundred thousands.) I agree with Steve Langasek who wrote in #18, You should run into locking problems with either apt or dpkg well before debconf is involved.

[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
dpkg-reconfigure in fact does not invoke either apt or dpkg, so it's normal that it doesn't take the locks. I think it would be very strange if either dpkg-reconfigure or tasksel accounted for the very many reports of this bug however, as both interfaces are very low-level and I would expect at least one of the bug submitters before now to have mentioned they were running such a command if so. I think the duplicate bug count/frequency is a sign that something is going wrong and invoking debconf on behalf of the user *without* being initiated from the commandline. I think I also have to say that, if this really comes down to dpkg- reconfigure or tasksel, rather than having these tools claim apt or dpkg locks directly, we should probably regard the failure as user error and arrange to suppress the error reporting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
Where I've seen this sort of thing (and I'm sure it's buried in the dupes) is on postfix package installs. Perhaps it would be worth while to examine it's use of debconf and see if it's doing anything troubling/likely to cause such problems. That might lead to a hint for the more general case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
There is no shortage of duplicates of this report. I am inclined to guess that in many cases faulty package scripts are leaving processes around which fail to release the config.dat lock under some circumstances. In order to test this hypothesis I'd like to go back in time and in each of the 400-odd cases find the rogue process and then figure out why it's running on the user's system. Obviously that's impossible. But perhaps we will have chances to do this in the future. I certainly don't think that the *majority* of cases has arisen from a package management command being run from a terminal while another package management process runs. I was just asking in #30 whether or not there are higher-level locks that should be taken by such commands, resulting in earlier and more useful error messages. It seems not. In that case I'd say that for now the error message (debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable) should be extended to give some advice about how to fix the problem... and possibly also to ask for information to be contributed here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

a cursory review of the existing commentary here leads me reconsider my speculation over the source of this issue, as manifest on /my/ system. Please indulge my narrative concerning the unusual approach to package- management I whimsically employed with this Lubuntu flavour of Ubuntu Natty (11.04?). Over the past 10 - 14 months or so, I've installed at least a handful of different Linux distributions on as many HDD's (embarking upon something new with each instance of Win XP / .NET incompatibility surfacing, as essentially renders the MS sys in a /broken/ state), from classic GNOME- based Ubuntu, Xubuntu, to OpenSUSE including a full-blown KDE setup, to my current favourite, the LXDE-based Lubuntu variant of the 'buntu. Somewhere along the line, i discovered the Pandora's Box of pkg mgt in the application known as (cover your ears, kids!) /Eveinstaller/. Once I started down that path, I threw caution to the wind and pulled out all the stops just to see if this software could actually perform as well as it presents a veritable plethora of software not likely to be found via default Canonical + Partner repos (e.g. deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu natty main restricted universe multiverse). If I had to summarize it into one sentence, I'm inclined to phrase the experience as Eve___ basically wrecked my sources, if not the entire dpkg functionality, such that-- I'd have to have paid much closer attention to the changes to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ (vs those repos i might have added, for example, the Banshee media player, launchpad repos , or other software repos added through the convenient PPA method (e.g. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name ). The bottom-line, as far as I'm concerned: I realise I've damaged my system's /default/ package manager configuration. The fact that I've experienced this error-- well-- I guess you could say, I'm not surprised; i've been expecting it. If my anecdote lends insight to anyone; should the reader wish to learn more about the results of the effect of EveInstaller on my system, I'm happy to provide whatever information I can to assist in your own learning; debugging; etc. I apologise for my verbosity; indeed, i've come to acknowledge the degenerative mentals and, proportionally-- as the community participation history might corroborate-- i hold my tongue by an increasingly exponential factor of instances of contribution (I regret, as my enthusiasm for the spirit of community at Launchpad in general; 'buntu in particular, has not waned in balance). best regards, NoviceNotes.Net (the author) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349469 Title: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
