[Bug 1860388] Re: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement
www-data has id 33, so belongs to the first class described at https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#uid-and-gid- classes It's therefore reasonable for packaging to assume that it always exists, so this is not a bug in nginx packaging. In the general case it's not reasonable for packaging to accommodate arbitrary situations that cannot arise by policy, since that would make packaging complexity explode. I don't think this case warrants an exception. I believe that the root cause of your problem is your hacked image. Removing the www-data user or group can be expected to have exactly these consequences. ** Changed in: nginx (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1860388 Title: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1860388/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1860388] Re: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement
This said, `www-data` is created by the *system* even if you don't have any web server installed - the removal of something in the predefined system users group is potentially 'non-standard' and could introduce some breakage of things, as seen here. Digging deeper because I'm not entirely certain that this is something the nginx package should handle - user creation - but it needs more discussion among server team first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1860388 Title: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1860388/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1860388] Re: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement
We require more data to determine if this is actually an nginx *bug* or something else. We need to see the logs regarding the packages not installing, which are in apt console logs or syslog. Usually the issue isn't one of it not *installing* but more that it installed but couldn't complete configuration. Without more details surrounding why nginx failed to install/run, it's impossible to diagnose this deeper. ** Changed in: nginx (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1860388 Title: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1860388/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1860388] Re: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement
This is not a maas bug. Since nginx fails to install and it's a maas dependency, install is interrupted and can't complete instaling maas. ** Also affects: nginx (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: maas Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1860388 Title: MAAS fails clean install www-data user does not exist due to nginx requirement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1860388/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
