Setting status to confirmed as i am able to replicate it (Test case A). (not sure if test case B produce the same result though. )
Dependency is an either-or type (php5-pgsql | php5-mysql). Therefore when user has either one installed, but has chosen a option that required the other to be needed, the webpage could not load. There was no warning from the postinst script as it uses perl (DBI) to connect to the database. Test case: (A) mysql 0) Ensure mysql is installed and running and php5-mysql is not installed 1) sudo apt-get install moodle 2) Select mysql and enter database details (B) pgsql 0) Ensure pgsql is installed and running and php5-pgsql is not installed 1) sudo apt-get install moodle 2) Select mysql and enter database details Actual result The postinst script created a table in the database (correct behaviour). However when going to the moodle webpage (http://localhost/moodle/admin), php error occurs. The error is caused by missing php5-mysql. Expected result. The postinst script created a table in the database Moodle webpage works. ** Changed in: moodle (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- Blank pages in Moodle after install - failed to install php5-mysql https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234609 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
