[Bug 1312936] Re: Post-installation script fails
I ran into this problem when I fired up an AWS EC2 micro instance (which provides 512MB) with trusty and, on my brand spanking new server, tried to run sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.6. I tried Arnaud's suggestion on another brand spanking new micro trusty server, but no luck. However, when I fired up a trusy VM with 2GB of memory using Oracle VM Virtualbox, the MySQL 5.6 installation sailed through without a hitch. So memory certainly does appear to be the issue. In practice this sure does suggest that there's no longer a way to load the latest LTS version of Ubuntu Server onto an EC2 micro instance and then install the latest version of MySQL that's available via apt- get -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1312936 Title: Post-installation script fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.6/+bug/1312936/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks, Arnaud, squishing down max_connections before attempting to install did the trick! I took the conf.d route and put a .cnf file in /etc/mysql/conf.d that contained two lines: [mysqld] max_connections = 20 Installing MySQL was the first thing I did on the first login to a new EC2 micro instance, so I definitely find it interesting that there are 512MB environments where the default MySQL 5.6 installation sails through and 512MB environments (AWS EC2!) where it crashes and burns. Obviously something is different. (I have lots of Windows experience, but I'm a Linux newbie. So I haven't a clue) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1312936 Title: Post-installation script fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.6/+bug/1312936/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
