I would suggest you try: sudo passwd -u mysql to straighten that out, and then try again. -- package mysql-server-5.0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/302939 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
