[Bug 637889] Re: bacula-director-mysql : debconf: Unknown template field '_description'
I've never done this before, so I hope I'm using the forum correctly. I have the same scenario Chris, but I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. Now I'm not able to install any other packages as this failed installation is retried with every other install I do. Was there an update to the bacula-director-mysql package to correct this? Is there a work around by setting up the database and user in mysql before installing Bacula Director? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/637889 Title: bacula-director-mysql : debconf: Unknown template field '_description' -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Dianne: If I remember correctly, this warning didn't actually cause the package install to fail. Maybe you have another problem?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I've tried to install the bacula-directory-mysql package on lucid and it worked as expected. Could you outline which steps you've taken to install the package? ** Changed in: bacula (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: bacula (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- bacula-director-mysql : debconf: Unknown template field '_description' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/637889 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Hello Chris... I cannot tell how much I appreciate your willingness to give this a look with me!! I've been in network technologies since 1992, but I'm just starting with Linux. I have attached a txt file of the complete output from my attempt to install Bacula. Maybe that will help you help ME to identify where the problem is.. Thanks so MUCH!!
