2012-10-22 Thread Noah Meyerhans
Ok, good news, and an apology. The good news is that this isn't mysql's fault at all. The network-manager package is breaking /etc/network/interfaces, causing the lo interface to not get an IP address. The SQL syntax error was a red herring, and is not actually related to the server not starting.

The desktop tasks install various mysql related packages (libmysqlclient18, mysql-server-core-5.5, etc). I've been trying to test installations on a base system (no desktop task) to see if one of these packages, when installed before the 'mysql-server' package, breaks installation of mysql-server.

Hi. I've just experienced this problem on a fresh wheezy install using the beta3 installer. The installation was performed using the netboot image (that is, PXE and downloading the installer components from a TFTP server) on a physical, non-virtual host. I haven't put in a lot of time to investiga

tag 688792 +moreinfo thanks Ross, Thanks for the report. First of all whenever I play with mysql inside a chroot I have to bring down the real mysql server as otherwise there is a port clash. (I'm not sure how piuparts avoids this issue.) And that certainly causes upgrade failures
