package bacula-director-mysql (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Hi David,

Thank you for reporting bugs and trying to make Ubuntu better.

Now, for what I can see in DpkgTerminalLog, the issue appears to be with MySQL. The log shows the following:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES).
unable to connect to mysql server.

Which leads me to believe that you don't have MySQL installed, it has not started, or simply you input the incorrect password when requested. Could you please confirm that:

 - MySQL has been installed.
 - MySQL is running and password has been set correctly and you can log into the database with it.
 - That you Input the correct password for bacula. To retry I believe that the following command should work:

    sudo dpkg --configure -a

You could also provide an step-by-step to be able to reproduce this issue correctly if possible.

I'm marking this bug as Incomplete until more information is provided.

Best Regards,

I have given up on bacula and am not using it.
