My windows box blew its motherboard so I switched to my Ubuntu 6.06 machine today. Fairly easy - just moved the drive over, mounted it and rescanned.
I haven't used the Linux box since September so there were 172 updates. The Ubuntu box downloaded them all but as it was installing them I couldn't resist and accessed the SlimServer GUI over my Windows laptop. Suddenly the Ubuntu box came up with an error when installing either samba or one of the "386" files (smb386? smb-lib386?) Something about MySQL in use and returning an error code. The update process aborted with ~60 packages left to install. My update manager is now broken and the Synaptic Package Manager can't resolve the error. It says samba is broken and that the update script returns an error. (I have the exact text, but it's not relevant here.) Provided the Ubuntu forum can help me resolve the broken package, my question is, was this caused by SlimServer's MySQL? If so, should I stop SlimServer and MySQL when updating? (and noob question here) how do I stop SlimServer and MySQL in Linux? -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34317 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
