Public bug reported: Trying to install bugzilla on Dapper results with these errors:
Setting up bugzilla (2.20-1) ... Creating a new default bugzilla database... DBD::mysql::db do failed: Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' to database 'bugzilla' at /usr/share/bugzilla/debian/postinst-db.pl line 357, <STDIN> line 2. DBD::mysql::db do failed: Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' to database 'bugzilla' at /usr/share/bugzilla/debian/postinst-db.pl line 357, <STDIN> line 2. dpkg: error processing bugzilla (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 I don't know why this happens, since from the bugzilla changelog, I find this: bugzilla (2.16.7-1) unstable; urgency=low * Major rewriting of the postinst. Better process, for the automatic mode, we now create a default bugzilla user instead of using debian-sys-maint. Changelog suggests that this user (debian-sys-maint) isn't needed anymore. This error was stumbled upon by choosing the Automatic installation routine in debconf. Will have to check the code, next... ** Affects: bugzilla (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Installation fails to create a database https://launchpad.net/bugs/55747 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
