[Bug 513151] Re: package mysql-server-5.0 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
I have just had this same problem, I think, installing 10.04 beta from 9.04. I believe that apport reported it twice today but those are anonymous as far as I can tell. I did try to save some other output data but looking at the report it appears that everything relevant is there. One symptom that may not show in the report - when dpkg tries to either install or remove mysql-server, the program 'start mysql' hangs This is also true of manually running 'service mysql start' (I think - I just ran manually again and it returned 'mysql is already running' ). As a result, dpkg never ends until I kill the start program, at which point dpkg will finish some things and then end with errors. Here are some things I copied early in the process, when I first started trying to make this work: Error message from the GUI (IIRC): E: /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-5.1_5.1.41-3ubuntu7_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Contents of the Terminal window: debconf: DbDriver config: /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable (Reading database ... 572304 files and directories currently installed.)

Hi Peroli, Due to you having mysql-server5.0 installed, the log file does not contain any information relevant to your problem. All of the information in that log file relates to that working package, not the package that was causing your problem. As such, I am closing this bug report. If you wish to install the package that was causing your problem attach a log file for that version of the package, please feel free to re-open this bug report. Thank you again for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please submit any future bugs you may find. ** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- package mysql-server-5.0 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/513151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.0 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

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it without more information. Could you please attach the file /var/log/daemon.log it may contains useful informations to track down your problem. You need admin privileges in order to read that file.

Hi Mitch, I have attached the file you requested. I selected mysql-server5.0 instead of 5.1 from synaptic package manager, and restarted the system later. It was working since then.
