Bug Description

Binary package hint: moodle

I run sudo dpkg --configure -a in terminal and all it says is: "Setting up moodle (1.9.4. dfsh-θubuntu1.1)"
I have let it work overnight and there is no change. When I cancel it, I get:

^Cdpkg: error processing moodle (--configure):

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of edubuntu-server:
edubuntu-server depends on moodle; however:
Package moodle is not configured yet.

Thanks for reporting this bug. This bug appears to be a duplicate of 463381.

I believe the easiest fix for you would be to:

Install php5-mysql and re-install moodle. When asked during installation which database server to use, pick mysql.
