Thank you for reply.. I'm not sure witch steps Synaptic or "gpk-application" takes to install or upgrade a package. in my case i have "update-notifier" installed, witch executes "update-manager" package witch shows witch updates there are and install them, if you choose to... but whether you use Synaptic or "gpk-application" or apt within a terminal, its usually done with root permissions, or else you cant install/upgrade packages. So in theory you should have permissions to install/upgrade so the question is, why does all these packages have a problem with starting or stopping MySQL-server? on the other hand the MySQL script is still looking for “mysqladmin” witch is replaced by MySQL-workbench.. -- ./var/log/debug (.log) Aug 26 15:43:40 Debian-Wheezy /etc/init.d/mysql[2699]: /etc/init.d/mysql: line 75: /usr/bin/mysqladmin: No such file or directory --- but I don’t think this is the reason why the installation/upgrade packages have a problem to start/stop MySQL-server, reporting it anyway...
I don’t have any other log files or clues to narrow down the bug, maybe other users have thoughts on how to solve it.... but if I happen to find more info, I will add it here... Thank you André
