[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
OK - i just uninstalled mtop altogether using: apt-get purge mtop - complained a bit but seems to have worked and nothing appears broken as a result (so far). installed mytop instead - which works ( uses a password protected mysql user id!). all other apt-get install's now seem to work ok as well, including apt-get install fail2ban - which mtop was breaking before. hope this helps someone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 Title: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mtop/+bug/77980/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
Please can someone give me at leaast a work around for this problem. I am currently lumbered with Ubuntu 10.04 by my ISP ( cannot upgrade to 12.04 without completely redepolying my server) - and this issue is preventing me installing ANY packages it seems. ie. renders whole server pretty useless. I have tried workarounds as suggested here - http://www.pkdavies.co.uk/66-mtop-access-denied-for-user-root.html - and elsewhere - creating mysql root user with (temporarily) NO password and limted privileges (PROCESS only). But, when i run: apt-get install mtop it says now: ... Setting up mtop (0.6.6-1.3) ... ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to database 'mysql' ERROR 1044 (42000) at line 2: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to database 'mysql' dpkg: error processing mtop (--configure): ... (whereas previously it was saying: ... Setting up mtop (0.6.6-1.3) ... ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) dpkg: error processing mtop (--configure): ... ) - does this mean: a) i also have to create a (dummy) database named 'mysql' (as well as 'root' user)? b) i have to set mysql root password to NULL EVERY time i want to use apt-get? - this all looks as if its getting pretty diabolical to even attempt a work around in this way. (My original objective was simply to install fail2ban in order to thwart aggressive brute-force attacks brning my server down - and that failing install has led in turn to this can of worms). My (customer) system is rendered useless as it is. Please could someone give me some guidance here as to the best way to get over this problem? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 Title: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mtop/+bug/77980/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Charles, Please note that this platform is for the discussion and resolution of technical issues regarding this Linux distribution ONLY so please refrain from flaming if at all possible. There seems to be a lot of frustration on your side regarding an installation of Ubuntu on a computer which I fully appreciate in difficult technical circumstances. Excellent support places where to look for your issues are ubuntuforums.org, and help.ubuntu.com (the official docs site from Canonical) to name but a few. www.ubuntu.com/support/community also is a good starting point for technical support from the community. And last but not least google - given the right query terms - often yields surprisingly concise pointers to information for issue resolution as well. Hope that helps!

[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
This bug was first reported six and a half years ago on the Debian tracker. The mtop package was removed from Debian unstable in late 2010, so if this is going to be fixed, it probably needs to be fixed in Ubuntu as it doesn't look like we're going to get a fix from upstream. This probably also means that there IS no maintainer for this package right now. I'm not sure what the correct process is for resolving that, though.

Hmm, I've just looked at this patch with the intent of sponsoring it, but have some remaining concerns. Using the debian-sys-maint account (and therefore forcing root) , which is what --local does, seems sub-par; this user has more permissions than are actually needed to run mtop and therefore there are potential security risks. Is there any reason why dbconfig-common[0] can't be used properly to create the user? From a brief reading it seems like there's just a problem with the way dbconfig-common is used that could be fixed. You removed the --idle option from the help output. Was that intentional?

Attached file changes the versionnumber to 0.6.6-1.2ubuntu1 and release-name to jaunty. ** Attachment added: mtop.debdiff for jaunty http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21527535/mtop.debdiff ** Changed in: mtop (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Committed -- mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
I've made a small change to the previous uploaded debdiff. The new version is attached. Unfortunately Launchpad PPA seems to be down, so I can't rebuild the package. I will rebuild the package when PPA is available again. MOTU, could you please review and sponsor the attached debdiff? Once it is in jaunty, I'll request SRU (severe regressions: uninstallable) Of course, I'll inform the Debian guys afterwards. ** Attachment added: mtop.debdiff http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21306661/mtop.debdiff -- mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
I've marked some bugs as a duplicate of this one, because the source of the issues are the same: a user is created when the package is installed. I've used Launchpad's PPA to build a new version of the package. Changelog: * New feature --local for mkill and mtop (to use /etc/mysql/debian.cnf) - Depend on libconfig-ini-simple-perl * Removed --idle option from mkill's documentation (isn't implemented) * Stripped create_user (postinst) because it was broken. There was also no need because mtop can be used non-local as well (LP: #77980) * Rewrote postrm * Satisfy lintian - Fixed debian-rules-ignores-make-clean-error - Fixed debian-rules-sets-DH_COMPAT - Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.0 The debdiff is attached. I would appreciate it if some of you test the package and add the outcome of your testing to this bug. If all is ok, I'll provide Debian (and upstream) with the changes I've made. Instructions to install this new version (intrepid only): $ sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/petski/ubuntu intrepid main /etc/apt/sources.list.d/LP77980.list' $ sudo sh -c 'echo deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/petski/ubuntu intrepid main /etc/apt/sources.list.d/LP77980.list' $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get upgrade # Ignore warning about the unauthenticated mtop package $ sudo mtop --local If you see the two lines below, please ignore them while testing.

Thanks petski :)
I removed mtop on my system (I'd previously set the root pw to '' as a
temporary workaround)

[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
The installer still fails on hardy! From the man file: The most convenient way to setup your system to use mtop is to create a database user called mysqltop which has no password. For security pur‐ poses, this user should have all privileges set to N except Process_priv which must be set to Y. To grant these privileges, execute the following from the MySQL command prompt For mysql 4.0.2 and greater: mysql grant super, reload, process on *.* to mysqltop; mysql grant super, reload, process on *.* to [EMAIL PROTECTED]; mysql flush privileges; -- mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
Package mtop acts well even when no account specified - it asks username and password interactively. Hence I see two ways: 1. Use debian-sys-maint account by default 2. Try to use root record with no password. If fails - leave it blank, mtop will ask username and password interactively during each launch. Actually, I'm installing it with a little hack - adding exit 0 in the head of post-install script. -- mtop failed to install (wrong/no password) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 77980] Re: mtop failed to install (wrong/no password)
For those who are facing this issue and until a package dealing with it is
released, a workaround is reset MySQL root password during install then
reenable it:
$ mysql -u root -p
* Enter the following MySQL command:
SET PASSWORD FOR [EMAIL PROTECTED]('');QUIT;
* install mtop
apt-get install mtop
* Set MySQL root password to irs previous value:
$ mysql -u root -p
SET PASSWORD FOR [EMAIL PROTECTED]('YOURROOTPASSWORD');QUIT;
