Package: mariadb-server-10.1 Version: 10.1.22-4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Upgrade from 1 month old version failed. Installation says: There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop it. Stop it yourself and try again! and fails. When looking at: /var/lib/dpkg/info/mariadb-server-10.1.prerm one can see: invoke-rc.d mysql stop pidof -c /usr/sbin/mysqld Executing those lines myself, I get: # invoke-rc.d mysql stop; pidof -c /usr/sbin/mysqld 3174 Similarly: # systemctl stop mariadb.service; pidof -c /usr/sbin/mysqld 3174 However I could stop the sever as a plain user: $ akonadictl stop Verify it is stopped: # pidof -c /usr/sbin/mysqld Then the upgrade worked flawlessly: # apt-get upgrade A very verbose description can be found there: https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2017/05/msg00000.html Best, Chris -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.1 depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.60 ii galera-3 25.3.20-1 ii gawk 1:4.1.4+dfsg-1 ii init-system-helpers 1.48 ii iproute2 4.9.0-1 ii libaio1 0.3.110-3 ii libc6 2.24-10 ii libdbi-perl 1.636-1+b1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.5 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-16 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 ii lsof 4.89+dfsg-0.1 ii mariadb-client-10.1 10.1.22-4 ii mariadb-common 10.1.22-4 ii mariadb-server-core-10.1 10.1.22-4 ii passwd 1:4.4-4 ii perl 5.24.1-2 ii psmisc 22.21-2.1+b2 ii rsync 3.1.2-2 ii socat 1.7.3.1-2+b1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.1 recommends: ii libhtml-template-perl 2.95-2 Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.1 suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20160123cvs-4 pn mariadb-test <none> pn netcat-openbsd <none> pn tinyca <none> -- debconf information: mariadb-server-10.1/postrm_remove_databases: false mariadb-server-10.1/nis_warning: mariadb-server-10.1/old_data_directory_saved:
