--- Begin Message ---Package: dbconfig-common Version: 1.8.11 Severity: important I was trying to debug a problem i had with simba and ended up looking at this code: ---- ### ### perform a few sanity checks on the data ### # if dbserver is unset, that means localhost. if [ -z "$dbc_dbserver" ]; then # if the server is local, only allow connections from localhost dbc_dballow="localhost" else # otherwise, only tell the remote database to allow from us dbc_dballow=`hostname` fi ---- I see two bugs here. The first one, and the one i am getting: if i tell dbserver to use "localhost" dbc_dballow gets set to my hostname ("stark"). "Stark" hostname resolves to my real ip address, on which, by default, mysql does not listen to. The second bug: if i would actually write the data to a remote server, that machine may or may not be in the same domain name as me (search field in /etc/resolv.conf), so it should be "hostname -f", or even better an ip address. This is how i think the code should look like: ---- ### ### perform a few sanity checks on the data ### # if dbserver is unset, that means localhost. if [ -z "$dbc_dbserver" ] || [ "$dbc_dbserver" = "localhost" ]; then # if the server is local, only allow connections from localhost dbc_dballow="localhost" else # otherwise, only tell the remote database to allow from us dbc_dballow=`hostname -f` fi ---- -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages dbconfig-common depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.72 Debian configuration management sy ii pwgen 2.05-1 Automatic Password generation ii ucf 2.007 Update Configuration File: preserv dbconfig-common recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded

[sean finney] * dbconfig-common is now migrated to svn.debian.org. * two fixes for GRANT command construction from Radu Spineanu: - if dbc_dbserver is localhost, then dbc_dballow should also be set to localhost (currently it's set to the output of `hostname`, just like with remote connections) - if connecting to a remote host, use the fqdn (`hostname -f`) instead of the node name. (closes: #362571). * the source package in ./examples is now split into several smaller source packages, one per binary. this should hopefully make things much easier to understand for developers interested in using dbconfig-common. thanks to Jelle Boomstra for the suggestion (closes: #350588). * fix a documentation bug on where installation files should be placed. thanks to Uwe Steinmann for pointing this out (closes: #348720). * Cameron Dale noticed that a mix of script/sql/admin sql upgrades would not necessarily be applied in sorted order with respect to each other. this *should* be fixed now, but i'm sure i'll hear if it isn't. * added missing build-depend on gs. * added a debugging and logging function, and started using it in various places as i add more code. to get a little more info on what goes on, export dbc_debug=1 before installing a dbc-using package. * logic fix for install/upgrades in postinst that would otherwise result in installation code being run when it shouldn't, which can be really annoying. now everything *should* work the way it ought to...
