[Bug 613683] Re: package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1

2010-08-06 Thread Clint Byrum
Norbert, thank you for reporting this issue and working with us to make
Ubuntu better!

This bug in mysql-server-5.1.preinst, is mostly due to misleading error
messages. The script assumes because the mysqld init script exists, that
mysqld is in fact running, when it may very well not be.

The fix is to only try to stop mysqld if it is running, though its not
entirely clear how to reliably determine that it is running (possibly
with the pid file)

Marking Triaged and setting Importance to Low, as most users who have
installed mysql-server will in fact have it running.

** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu)
   Status: New = Triaged

** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided = Low
