Opening a new thread because the OP of another thread describing the same issue marked it as resolved, even though it was not. I’m trying to avoid a re-install; I and others use this server every day.

My YunoHost server

Hardware: VPS bought online
YunoHost version: 4.4.2.13 (stable)
I have access to my server : Through SSH & through the webadmin
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : No

Description of my issue

I am attempting to migrate to 11.x, but receive the following error, per the full log: Migration 0021_migrate_to_bullseye did not complete, aborting. Error: Failed to reinstall mariadb-common ?

Hmokay I’m not quite sure to understand why slapd is failing as it seems to have no relation with the rest of the issue …

First I would try to clean as much mess as we can by simply removing python(2) which seems problematic:

apt remove python

Hi Aleks, thanks for your reply. I managed to get the migration to work before I saw your response; I think the failure may have something with an incomplete removal of firefly-iii causing issues. In addition to a couple reboot cycles, I did the following:

  • sudo dpkg --configure -a
  • Delete /etc/php/7.4/fpm/pool.d/firefly-iii.conf
  • Install php7.4-fpm
  • run sudo apt --fix-broken install
  • run sudo yunohost tools migrations run --accept-disclaimer

after which the migration was successfully completed.

For context: I have had strange issues ever since installing firefly-iii (such as being unable to install or update apps), which was many updates ago. When experiencing these issues some time ago, I removed php7.4-fpm after finding this thread, which appeared to resolve them for a while.

Thank you Nathan, your solution helped me recover after a failed bullseye migration that also showed the slapd error message.
