Public bug reported: Hi,
I needed to upgrade the server where my mediawiki runs to to get unison working from our laptops to it. Therefore I ran 'do-release-upgrade -d' to upgrade to focal - I've already done so for a couple of other things including my laptops where this worked well. But, the mediawiki database schema was not upgraded afterwards causing error on login. The interweb suggests running Update.php - but this does not seem to be included in the mediawiki package. $ dpkg -l mediawiki Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============-============-============-===================================== ii mediawiki 1:1.31.7-1 all website engine for collaborative work janl@mediawiki:~$ apt policy mediawiki mediawiki: Installed: 1:1.31.7-1 Candidate: 1:1.31.7-1 Version table: *** 1:1.31.7-1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: ubuntu-release-upgrader-core 1:20.04.23 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-42.46-generic 5.4.44 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-42-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.4 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CrashDB: ubuntu Date: Mon Aug 3 20:18:03 2020 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ubuntu-release-upgrader Symptom: dist-upgrade UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to focal on 2020-08-03 (0 days ago) VarLogDistupgradeAptclonesystemstate.tar.gz: Error: command ['pkexec', 'cat', '/var/log/dist-upgrade/apt-clone_system_state.tar.gz'] failed with exit code 127: polkit-agent-helper-1: pam_authenticate failed: Authentication failure Error executing command as another user: Not authorized This incident has been reported.
