After many wasted hours and tens of re-installs I finally have it
working. The problem was AppArmor ("tail
/var/log/squeezecenter/server.log" and "tail /var/log/syslog" showed
the problem).
I did a few things to fix it (not sure if they're all necessary).
First I removed the broken squeezecenter and made sure its database
wasn't left hanging around:
Code:
--------------------
sudo aptitude remove --purge squeezecenter
sudo rm -r /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/
--------------------
Then I installed mysql-server-5 before installing squeezecenter, so I
could define apparmor's settings for it before the squeezecenter
installation started its configuration.
Then I followed the instructions here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor#head-9861068c03e997d5a693610565bcb2abc15295c9
to disable the mysqld profile:
Code:
--------------------
sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name /etc/apparmor.d/disable/
apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name
--------------------
But this wasn't enough. The squeezecenter install renames the existing
apparmor profile to .squeezecenter.orig which I think then becomes
active during the install and prevents connection to mysql. So I also
did this before installing squeezecenter:
Code:
--------------------
sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.orig
/etc/apparmor.d/disable
--------------------
So that when the install creates the .orig it is immediately found to
be disabled.
Installing squeezecenter finally worked after this.
Hopefully this is helpful.
