initial situation: Ubuntu 16.04 with 7 Package updates en 7 security updates waiting After clean boot Ubuntu suggests to update to 16.04.2 with do-release-upgrade
from sudo-user I did sudo update sudo do-release-update during release update Ubuntu asked me to use the new file for release-update Old file: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades root.root 0644 New File: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades.ucftmp root.root 0644 I accepted the new file after release-update Ubuntu finished with errors; "Errors were encountered while processing: mysql-server-5.7 mysql-server Error in function:" After clean reboot the Zabbix frontend (webGUI) didn't work anymore and gave the following error: "Configuration error -------------------- DB type "MYSQL" is not supported by current setup Possible values." Logging into mysql gave a lot of errors when reading config so I tried to stop mysql service, which took very long. I then stopped the zabbix-server service, apache2 service and then again mysql service. After a few min it stopped. Then I started the previous mentioned services again but the same problem. Then I logged into mysql and tried to repair database. After that I could succesfully read config. Zabbix frontend still gave the same error. After that my collegue did the following to correct the problem: as sudo-user: sudo apt-get install php-mysql (which according to him installed php7 for mysql upgrade). After that he also fixed some more things (sorry don't know details) Problem is solved now -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1683345 Title: package mysql-server-5.7 5.7.17-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1683345/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
