apt-get moodle ERRO 1045

Question

Quando no Ubuntu e tento instalar um programa não relacionado ao Moodle, recebo uma mensagem de erro referente a erros de processamento do Moodle:

# apt-get install screen

dpkg: error processing moodle (--configure):

No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already

Errors were encountered while processing:
  moodle

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Por que isso acontece e como instalar o software sem esse erro / referência ao Moodle?

Eu tentei usar o apt-get para remover o Moodle

Answer 1

Isso acontece porque o banco de dados MySQL com o qual o Moodle está tentando se conectar não reconhece o root como um usuário autorizado. É provável que você precise configurar o MySQL corretamente antes de continuar.
