[Bug 1584234] Re: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory
Perhaps we could have mysql-server.postinst follow some heuristic to determine if the system has lower-than-will-work-by-default memory, and if so, then enable a (/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/lowmem.cnf -> /usr/share/mysql/lowmem.cnf) symlink or something. We could have a low priority debconf option to permit (no heuristic/always lowmem/never lowmem/use heuristic) overrides. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584234 Title: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1584234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1584234] Re: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory
I had a look at the other bug report. I think the significance in this report is that the mysql-server package can fail to install altogether (if the installation misjudges how much memory to assign to mysql), requiring the administrator to use package management commands in order to fix. I got this problem when trying out Juju on the LXD provider. The server had 2GB RAM, shared among the containers. The installed mysql-server package got (auto?)configured to allocate 1.6GB of memory, thus failing to start, and failing to complete the installation. This is my recollection of what happened. I had a look at the packaging of "mysql-server" and did not see any "autoconfiguration" for the memory. Therefore, it might just be Juju that configured the 1.6GB. I'll try again to install Juju and get a better picture of what is happening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584234 Title: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1584234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

FYI - We discussed if that would be a dup to bug 1571865. While a fix to the former one will help the situation a bit (by hopefully providing a better error message right away) it is intentionally not flagged as duplicate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584234 Title: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1584234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Attempt for installation of mysql-server, which fails due to not enough memory. The messages do not give a clue that the problem is memory-related. The commands (systemctl, journalctl) that are mentioned, do not provide a hint. ** Attachment added: "mysql-error.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1584234/+attachment/4667214/+files/mysql-error.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584234 Title: mysql-server fails to install if it cannot start due to not enough memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1584234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
