Hi guys, I do know why is the error and what to do for the fix it. However, the reason why I filed the Bug is because there should be a message or any hint saying that the installation failed and it might be because of AppArmor. This was discussed with Jos as follows:
19:36 < jiboumans_> RoAkSoAx: at the very least, the error should say something about 'not allowed because of apparmor settings in $file' or something 19:37 < jiboumans_> RoAkSoAx: LP bug it :) If you guys think that's something that should not be this way, please close the bug again since I'm reopening. Thanks. ** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix => New ** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Undecided -- [lucid] MySQL fails to install db (mysql_install_db) in specified directory due to AppArmor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597490 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.1 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
