Bug#439372: ocsinventory-server: fresh installation -- complete failure
Package: ocsinventory-server Version: 1.01-2 Severity: serious Trying to install ocs-inventory from scratch. The database is on a different computer. Several bugs cropped up, and I still not haven't gotting things working: 1) Debconf asked whether I wanted to use dbconfig for database installation or that I should check the ocsinventory /usr/share/doc directory otherwise. Well, there is no info in the ocsinventory-server documentation on how to prepare a database (which I would have preferred personally) 2) Choosing dbconfig prompted for a database administrator password. But it did not ask for the dbadmin username. The mysql root user does not have remote access on that particular server... 3) Continuing as is, debconf complained that a mysql server would be needed and if I wanted to abort/retry/ignore. As far as I could tell, it had not even done anything yet so the retry made no sense at all. And the database was to be on another host... Ignoring, things failed completely, because, well, there was no mysql running on the host ocsinventory was configuring on. 4) dpkg-reconfigure -plow could not run at this point because the package had not been configured yet. I had to dpkg-reconfigure debconf and set priority to low there in order to retry. The package could have failed gracefully and allowed reconfiguration instead. 5) I prepared a dbadmin user on the mysql server so that the package configuration could do what it had to, remotely. Trying dpkg --configure -a: this time I was prompted for host and username. Great. Still complaining about a mysql server requirement, ignore. Configuration then failed because the mysql-client command was not installed! 6) After installing the mysql-client package, configuration finally succeeded. Trying to browse http://localhost/ocsinventory/ I got an internal server error... The apache error logs showed that the application could not connect to mysql; it turned out the configuration had not granted itself permission to connect to the server remotely. 7) Fixing remote connectivity on the mysql server, the next browse attempt resulted in a "bad request" error. Apache error logs listed this: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'ocsweb.config' doesn't exist at /usr/share/perl5/Apache/Ocsinventory/Server/System.pm line 85. Now I'm stuck...

Bug#389683: xen-utils-common: bridging script breaks networking
Package: xen-utils-common Version: 3.0+hg11292-2 Severity: serious Justification: breaks unrelated services Freshly installed amd64 etch system. When running /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start, the system becomes completely unreachable from the network. Running ifconfig, I can see eth0 (which is the virtual interface now if I am correct), having the mac and IP address of the real eth0, and a peth0 and xenbr0 both having no IP address and a mac address of FE+(5 times :FF). When I set the IP address of xenbr0 manually to the eth0 address, networking works again. But I am not sure whether that's how it is supposed to be.

Bug#347584: Bug#347585: Bug#308812: winbind should depend on samba (smbclient)?
Hi all, On Thu, Jan 12, 2006 at 06:47:09AM +0100, Christian Perrier wrote: > > > > So, I hereby propose: > > > > > 1) close #308812 and #347584 with "Version: 3.0.20b-3 > > > > Yes, closing 308812 since this dependency has now been added. > > And also close 347584 which is the samedoing so right now. (I had already closed #347584 which I mistakenly cloned, but that does not really matter anyway) Both #308812 and #347585 still affect sarge, which is currently our official release. Under normal circumstances I don't usually care about bugs being closed if they are in stable but fixed in unstable (and possibly testing). However, both of these simply make the software plain unusable. I'd suggest reopening #308812 and then tagging sarge and fixed, so it stays documented in BTS. And perhaps rebuild for sarge with necessary dependency and upload to proposed-updates, though I'm not sure without checking what qualifications are these days for non-security issues to still get through to stable point releases. > > > 2) lower #347585 to important > > > > > I don't do it right now because I really want to understand why you > > > cloned the bug. > > > > I believe this one should still be left open, and at the present severity. > > Well, my rationale is that #347585 is not about a missing dependency > but about a missing directory, which only affects those people who use > winbind without samba. Which is a perfectly fine use case. Winbind is about authenticating (anything) to AD. As I wanted pppd on a VPN gateway to do so, I had no need for samba on this machine, at all. If I want squid to use NTLM auth, I have no need for samba. If I want cyrus to use NTLM auth, ... You can guess it. Heck, even on a workstation where I would want to use NTLM auth I probably would not want to install samba or possibly even a samba client (be it smbmount or smbclient). Additionally, while the ntlm_auth binary complains when it is affected by #308812, winbind just dies with no explanation whatsoever because of #347585 - even when using debuglevel up to 2048. It took an invocation with strace to find it out why. > The solution to #347585 is not another dependency but rather > /var/run/samba included in winbind so one may argue that, seen this > way, the bug is something that "has a major effect on the > usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to > everyone".:-) I'd argue it makes winbind completely unusable in the use case which is according to the description of the package the reason why it exists. > Anyway, this is arguing: fixing this give us an opportunity to upload > a new version which I was already considering given that the former > one has reached testing. Ack :) However, as explained above, just closing (by whatever method) the bugs is IMHO inappropriate given that they both affect stable.

Bug#314364: tomcat4 - does not work with jdk1.3
Package: tomcat4 Version: 4.1.31-3 Severity: serious Hi, I installed tomcat4 with jdk/jre 1.3 from blackdown packages. Tomcat did not start and this was the top output from catalina_*.log: [ERROR] Digester - Begin event threw error java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/apache/commons/modeler/BaseModelMBean (Unsupported major.minor version 48.0) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass0(Native Method) ... Looking around for the "Unsupported major.minor" error message turned up that this was for classes compiled with jdk 1.4 which are trying to be loaded by jdk 1.3 or earlier. Installing blackdown jdk 1.4 packages (which need an "unstable" dist line in apt sources.list, other dists don't have them) makes the error go away. Off course, there is still the missing -webapps startup issue then, but that's another bug (which has been filed by others already) Since tomcat dependencies state jdk 1.3 is sufficient, those dependencies are clearly wrong :) Regards, Filip -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-2-686-smp Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages tomcat4 depends on: ii adduser 3.63Add and remove users and groups ii apache2-common 2.0.54-4next generation, scalable, extenda ii apache2-utils [apache-utils] 2.0.54-4utility programs for webservers ii j2re1.3 [java-virtual-machin 1.3.1.02b-2 Blackdown Java(TM) 2 Runtime Envir ii j2sdk1.3 [java-compiler] 1.3.1.02b-2 Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard ii libcommons-beanutils-java1.6.1-4 utility for manipulating JavaBeans ii libcommons-collections-java 2.1.1-3 A set of abstract data type interf ii libcommons-digester-java 1.5.0.1-4 Rule based XML Java object mapping ii libcommons-logging-java 1.0.4-2 The commmon wrapper interface for ii libtomcat4-java 4.1.31-3Java Servlet engine -- core librar -- no debconf information -- [ The C functions select() and pselect() ] "Their function is identical, with three differences: ..." -- Linux select (2) manpage -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
