updating RC1

[christian]

Arriving back from my motorbike week-end, I noticed 16 updates were available for RC1. I clicked on "select all" then "update" but nothing happened. Tried twice, just in case I made something wrong. Nothing again.
Suspecting something wrong, I unselected and then click for each and every package: bingo, once all packages were selected, I click on "update" and this launched the next step. So it looks like there is something strange here.

Next step: I got a nice window showing list of packages "to be installed" (sic).
Unfortunately, I was not able to click, at least using the mouse on any button because both were to low although I had scrolled down to the max already... another small itch or something wrong with my own firefox ?

not really blocked because of above behaviour, I launch this update but this is was I got:

Code: [Select]

The packages installation has not finished correctly . More information on the logs in /var/log/zentyal/
Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

but zentyal.log is so verbose that finding error triggering above message os quite difficult    I'm investigating

Samba related error. When you go back to package management, the is a message clearly stating that Samba was faulty.

I tried

Code: [Select]

sudo dpkg --configure -a
and got this:

Code: [Select]

sudo dpkg --configure -a
[sudo] password for rcadmin:

Notice this was solved after I applied system updates 
What I mean to say is that "Zentyal packages update" can not be launched before system updates

See if I understand correctly; Samba 4 is part of the system updates and not part of Zentyal updates?
Perhaps the Samba 4 on RC1 is a different version, so that could mean it has to be updated first by means of the system updates.
Thanks a lot for finding this Christian, from now on I will first install the system updates, and after that the Zentyal updates. 

Cheers.

Yes Escorpiom, zentyal-samba on RC1 depends on samba 4 beta5 and on RC2 depends on beta8.

I ran into this when upgrading RC1 as well. Submitted the bug report 5022.

nomad64, did you solve the problem?

I got the same problem after upgrading from samba4_4.0.0~beta8+dfsg1-1+zentyal5_amd64.deb to samba4_4.0.0~rc2+dfsg1-1+zentyal2_amd64.deb :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/samba-tool", line 26, in <module>
    from samba.netcmd.main import cmd_sambatool
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/__init__.py", line 27, in <module>
    import samba.param
ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libserver-role.so: version `SAMBA_4.0.0RC2' not found (required by /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/param.so)

After that I can't start bind9 and all system stops working. What can I do for restore working configuration?
