Public bug reported: See bug 1567695. In 5.7.11-0ubuntu4 (and ubuntu5), we're using mysqld --init-file with a SHUTDOWN at the end. But it seems that if a previous command fails, the SHUTDOWN never runs and the postinst hangs.
Is there a better way to do this so that the postinst will correctly fail on an SQL command error, instead of hanging? ** Affects: mysql-5.7 (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Tags: mysql-5.7-transition -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567701 Title: postinst is fragile, hanging on error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1567701/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
