Description
Upgrading from 11.10.4 to 12.10.6 with xinit set up to manage tomcat's lifecycle:
... Setting up xwiki-tomcat9-mysql (12.10.6) ... dpkg: error processing package xwiki-tomcat9-mysql (--configure): installed xwiki-tomcat9-mysql package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 3 Errors were encountered while processing: xwiki-tomcat9-mysql E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) W: Operation was interrupted before it could finish
Investigating, I get to:
root@host:/home/user# less /var/lib/dpkg/info/xwiki-tomcat9-mysql.postinst
root@host:/home/user# systemctl -q is-active tomcat9.service
root@host:/home/user# echo $?
3
root@host:/home/user# systemctl status tomcat9
● tomcat9.service - Apache Tomcat 9 Web Application Server
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tomcat9.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/tomcat9.service.d
└─xwiki-tomcat9-systemd.conf
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/index.html
Possibly the solution is to replace the oneliner with an if that never ends up in an exit code other than 0.
Looks related or caused by XWIKI-17883.
Workaround:
# systemctl start tomcat9 # dpkg --configure xwiki-tomcat9-mysql
