Public bug reported: during intrepid to jaunty upgrade,
if you have configured non hdb databases (for eg a "ldap" database using the ldap backend), the preinstallation script tries to dump this remote DB and of course fails : Preparing to replace slapd 2.4.11-0ubuntu6.1 (using .../slapd_2.4.15-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb) ... Stopping OpenLDAP: slapd. Dumping to /var/backups/slapd-2.4.11-0ubuntu6.1: - directory $mylocaldatabase... done. - directory dc=some,dc=remote,dc=org... slapcat: database doesn't support necessary operations. failed. dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/slapd_2.4.15-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 Backing up /etc/ldap/slapd.d/ in /var/backups/slapd-2.4.15-1ubuntu3... done. Starting OpenLDAP: slapd. Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/slapd_2.4.15-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) solution: the upgrade script should check that dumped databases are local ;) Cheers, Mik ** Affects: openldap (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- slapd upgrade to jaunty tries to dump non local databases https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364716 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openldap 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
