Package: webcalendar
Version: 1.0.2-2
Severity: grave
When I installed webcalendar, I got the option "Let debconf manage
settings.php?"
- Choosing "yes" led to a permissions error trying to execute
/usr/share/webcalendar/tools/dbconfig_oldconf.sh (which had
permissions 644)
- Choosing "no" led to an error starting with "sanity check failed for
dbc_dbtype".
- Both errors left the package in a "broken" dpkg state
- chmod a+x .../dbconfig_oldconf.sh and dpkg-reconfigure led to a string
of errors "no such file /etc/webcalendar/settings.php", as it tried to
detect my settings from a nonexistant "previous installation"
So, I tried to just ignore the post-install script and use the
instructions in /usr/share/doc/webcalendar/README.gz for postgresql,
namely:
createuser --no-adduser --no-createdb webcalendar
createdb --owner webcalendar webcalendar
pgsql -U webcalendar webcalendar
\i /usr/share/webcalendar/sql/tables-postgres.sql
Then I added "Include /etc/webcalendar/apache.conf" to my Apache
site-config, which according to README.gz should be enough to get the
initial setup page at http://localhost/webcalendar, which will create
the settings.php file. But whenever I go to that URL, I get "Could not
read /etc/webcalendar/settings.conf".
Indeed, settings.conf doesn't exist. I've tried commenting in the
SetEnv line in apache.conf and giving it the name "settings.php" instead
(which also doesn't exist, but it's the filename mentioned in
README.gz), and against my own instincts I did "chmod -R 777
/etc/webcalendar" and "chmod -R 777 /usr/share/webcalendar" - the README
says to chmod 777 some directory, but I can't figure out which.
Since this didn't work, I went looking for more docs, and found that
/usr/share/webcalendar/www is a broken symlink (to
"../../../webcalendar/docs").
Since the post-install script doesn't work, the install contains
dangling symlinks, and the only docs (README.gz) don't seem to match
reality, I conclude that this package is completely broken.
