One problem seems to be the samba4 postinst script is getting some
values (realm, domain, netbios name, server role) from samba-common, and
samba-common doesnt seem to use the values in smb.conf, particularly for
domain.
My workaround is to
sudo apt-get install samba4-common-bin
then create replace the smb.conf file with a samba4 one, e.g. generated from a
working samba4 installation, such as:
# Global parameters
[global]
server role = domain controller
workgroup = EXAMPLE
realm = example.com
netbios name = SERVER
[netlogon]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/example.com/scripts
read only = No
[sysvol]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
read only = No
Then run
sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/samba-common.config
If you don't do the step above, then when samba4 installs, the postinst
script attempts to provision the server, but debconf returns the domain
as WORKGROUP instead of EXAMPLE and the provision fails - I don't know
if this means the bug is in samba-common rather than samba4?
Then run
sudo apt-get install samba4
and it should all work correctly
