Erros do debconf ao configurar o mysql-server

Question

Quando tento executar o sudo apt-get upgrade, recebo o erro abaixo.

Eu também recebo um erro semelhante ao executar o sudo reconfigure postfix, que eu preciso executar rapidamente, já que o email de saída não está mais funcionando. Eu também executei sudo apt-get autoclean, sudo apt-getclean, sudo apt-get install debconf --reinstall e sudo apt-get install -f sem sucesso.

magento@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install debconf --reinstall

Executando o Ubuntu 12.10.

O comando df dá:

Eu pareço post onde sugeriu não usar tmpfs para / var / cahce, se este é o problema, como eu posso configurar o Ubuntu para usar meu disco rígido (e SSD) para / var / cache.

Agradecemos antecipadamente por qualquer ajuda e me perdoe por minha novidade ..

Answer 1

Acho que estou um pouco atrasado ... mas vou postar mesmo assim, caso alguém venha aqui procurando a solução do mesmo problema.

debconf: DbDriver "config": mkdir :No such file or directory significa debconf está faltando seu diretório em /var/cache que foi removido de alguma forma (ainda não consigo descobrir como, considerando que funcionou ok antes).

Uma solução óbvia seria recriá-lo ( sudo mkdir /var/cache/debconf ), ou reinstalar o debconf do pacote (realmente não há necessidade disso).

    

Answer 2

Eu tive esse problema (Ubuntu 13.04), foi porque eu delatei (acidentalmente) / var / cache / debconf Eu apenas recriei e tudo ficou bom novamente ... então: / var / cache / debconf:    missing = bad    presente = bom

PS: recorte e cole se você é preguiçoso como eu:

 sudo mkdir /var/cache/debconf

e descobri que algumas ferramentas que pretendem limpar discos rígidos eliminam pastas vazias em lugares como / var / cache, de modo que ...

sudo touch /var/cache/debconf/.dont-delete-this-directory

qual é claro então o rmdir será bloqueado quando alguém / alguma coisa entrar e tentar se livrar dele ... é claro que o usuário experiente sabe NUNCA usar ferramentas de otimização, especialmente em sistemas baseados em nix, esse tipo de porcaria é melhor deixar para a multidão de sombras e seus novatos, então a maioria das pessoas lendo isso provavelmente estará rindo com o pensamento de fazê-lo ... eu mesmo incluído (apenas entediado eu acho). Espero que isso ajude.

Tente executar:

sudo apt-get update --fix-missing
sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install -f
