[Bug 1405501] Re: preinst script fails when /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax is too big

 

Hello Stefan,

Thanks for the update, I tried to edit the file but since the default
Docker apt configuration removes packages if they fail (both from the
cache archive and the dpkg database) I couldn't edit that file. I did
try to do it.

Ultimately I'm using lxc, however Docker is a lot more convenient for
port redirection, now I have to do iptables stuff manually which I hate.
You guys should really consider uploading an openbravo instance to the
official docker registry that is capable of linking with a postgresql
container.

However, besides my personal problem, I really think you should fix the
script, I am sure I am not the only one who has encouentered this and
not everybody knows how to work around things or file bugs :-)

Title:
  preinst script fails when  /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax is too big

Status in Openbravo ERP:
  New

Bug description:
  I am trying to install Openbravo in a Ubuntu Precise Docker container.
  The value of /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax is 18446744073692774399 which
  Dash/Bash fails to compare to the minimum SHMMAX value and makes the
  preinst script abort the package installation.

  This prevents the package from being installable as /proc is mounted
  read-only
