I have installed apache2 web-server and I want to install php, mysql and phpmyadmin in ubuntu 12.04
I followed this link
but I got this error
start: Job failed to start invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action
"start" failed. No apport report written because the error message
indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.5 (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned
error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of
mysql-server: mysql-server depends on mysql-server-5.5; however:
Package mysql-server-5.5 is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing
mysql-server (--configure): dependency problems - leaving
unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-server-5.5 mysql-server
I tried again and again but I didn't get any solution please help me
I have seen these kind of errors when other things have been installed but the machine not rebooted. I suggest you try:
1) reboot 2) sudo apt-get update 3) sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ 4) sudo apt-get install phpadmin
you are using 12.04. The third step may not work - I forget when they brought in the caret syntax. If it doesn't work install tasksel and use that to install the lamp server.
