Package: mariadb-server-10.0 Version: 10.0.32-0+deb8u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Not sure whether it's the proper place to report this but anyway, let's go. I've been using linux since v 0.93 and I'm used to the init.d script system. The new service system since debian 7 or 8, I'm a total newbie and don't understand it fully. All I know is that it starts deamons in parallel instead of one after another. The problem I have is that nginx, apache, mythserver, exim among others rely on mysql and require that mysql (mariadb-server here) is fully loaded and running before those packages are even started. That is not the case. Each one reports errors mysql related until mariadb-server is finally completely ready. How could I remedy to that once and for all? Still using debian 8 BTW. Past experiences with Debian upgrades always break exim, samba, dovecot among others which requires a lot of time to fix. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.9 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (990, 'oldstable-updates'), (990, 'oldstable'), (500, 'oldoldstable-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.0 depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.56+deb8u1 ii libaio1 0.3.110-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u10 ii libdbi-perl 1.631-3+b1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u2+b1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.2-10 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 ii mariadb-client-10.0 10.0.32-0+deb8u1 ii mariadb-common 10.0.32-0+deb8u1 ii mariadb-server-core-10.0 10.0.32-0+deb8u1 ii passwd 1:4.2-3+deb8u4 ii perl 5.20.2-3+deb8u9 ii psmisc 22.21-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.0 recommends: ii libhtml-template-perl 2.95-1 Versions of packages mariadb-server-10.0 suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20141216cvs-2 ii mariadb-test 10.0.32-0+deb8u1 pn tinyca <none> -- debconf information: mysql-server/password_mismatch: mariadb-server-10.0/really_downgrade: false * mariadb-server/oneway_migration: true mysql-server/no_upgrade_when_using_ndb: mysql-server-10.0/nis_warning: mysql-server-10.0/postrm_remove_databases: false * mysql-server/error_setting_password:
