Description

Not a fog bug, but I’m putting this here so we can track it and others can find it.

During installation of any branch (working, dev-branch, master), FOG installer hangs at Setting up and starting MySQL

Looking deeper into it, MariaDB is crashing. Errors:

WARNING: The host 'Arch' could not be looked up with resolveip.
This probably means that your libc libraries are not 100 % compatible
with this binary MariaDB version. The MariaDB daemon, mysqld, should work
normally with the exception that host name resolving will not work.
This means that you should use IP addresses instead of hostnames
when specifying MariaDB privileges !

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.

To report this bug, see https://mariadb.com/kb/en/reporting-bugs

We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, 
something is definitely wrong and this may fail.

Server version: 10.1.24-MariaDB
key_buffer_size=16777216
read_buffer_size=262144
max_used_connections=0
max_threads=153
thread_count=0
It is possible that mysqld could use up to 
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 137013 K  bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Thread pointer: 0x0
Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out
where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went
terribly wrong...
stack_bottom = 0x0 thread_stack 0x48400

I’ve created an issue with the MariaDB team here:
https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-13116

You can also monitor the issue on the fog testing dashboard here:

@Wayne-Workman Maybe this is related? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=227344

This appears to be resolved now.
I’m going to guess that someone over at Arch Linux botched a build of some package & didn’t know until a day later & fixed it.
