Package: webcalendar
Version: 1.0.5-15
Severity: normal
The webcalendar debconf script offers the user a choice between mysql
and postgres, but it doesn't actually work with postgres. When it tries
to create the database it runs into an error because it tries to create
a table that already exists:
creating postgres user webcalendar: already exists.
resetting password: success.
creating database webcalendar: already exists.
populating database via sql... warning: ident method specified but local
account doesn't exist.
warning: ident method specified but local account doesn't exist.
error encountered populating database:
ERROR: relation "webcal_user" already exists
Worse, if you reconfigure after this and select mysql instead, it
tries to use its postgres credentials to log into mysql and gets
totally confused:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'postgres'@'localhost' (using
password: NO).
unable to connect to mysql server.
error encountered creating user:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'postgres'@'localhost' (using
password: NO)
Apparently it stored my selection of postgres somewhere persistent and
refused to forget it. I ended up having to purge both webcalendar and
the "dbconfig-common" package it depends on; when I reinstalled them
both and selected "mysql", the installation succeeded without errors.
