[Bug 791944] Re: package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Clint Byrum]

dallaswv, The relevant error is here:

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

This means nmbd is failing to start.

Can you try

sudo start nmbd

and provide the output? Also the output of

sudo grep nmbd /var/log/syslog

Would be helpful. And finally, if you can include
/var/log/samba/nmbd.log , we can take a look at it to see why nmbd is
failing to start.

Marking Incomplete pending response.
