[Bug 781478] Re: package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[muddymind]

I'm also having trouble upgrading samba. I'm getting the following
output:


Setting up samba (2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2) ...
start: Job failed to start
invoke-rc.d: initscript nmbd, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing samba (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 samba
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


The funny thing is that samba is currently working! I tried to remove with purge but after reinstall the same thing happens again when installing (it installs but ends with the same error)
