I tried it about 2-3 times, before confirming that it won't go away by itself.
Basically the sequence of events was: apt full-upgrade, it failed, then dpkg --configure -a which of course failed too, apt full-upgrade again, it failed again, then I scrolled up to read the error, I ran mysql_upgrade manually, it ran without error, so I tried the configure again, but it failed. Then I confirmed that I have 5.7 up and running, but the postinst is just not having it. So then I just did the usual strace -f -e execve -s 300 dpkg --configure -a, and then I edited the postinst file, and filed the bug after it worked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670629 Title: postinst runs mysql_upgrade before server is properly started To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1670629/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
