Package: cacti
Version: 0.6.8a-13.1
Followup-For: Bug #206600
As Gaetan wrote, there is a mismatch of variables in the cacti.postinst script,
which stops installation with "Cacti is not configured due to wrong mysql
hostname/credential".
With a hotfix I could repeat the installation successfully by running
dpkg-reconfigure cacti. I had to add the following 3 lines in the function
get_config():
dbname="$RET"
dbuser="$RET"
dbpass="$RET"
...now it looks like this:
get_config()
{
db_get cacti/mysql_server
mysql_server="$RET"
db_get cacti/database
database="$RET"
dbname="$RET"
db_get cacti/root_mysql
root_mysql="$RET"
db_get cacti/root_password
root_passwd="$RET"
db_get cacti/username
username="$RET"
dbuser="$RET"
db_get cacti/password
password="$RET"
dbpass="$RET"
db_get cacti/webserver
webserver="$RET"
db_get cacti/no_mysql
no_mysql="$RET"
}
