Error during samba update

[JackTheKnife]

I'm getting that error during update process:



Can't exec "/tmp/libssl0.9.8.config.296591": Permission denied at /usr/share/perl/5.10/IPC/Open3.pm line 168.
open2: exec of /tmp/libssl0.9.8.config.296591 configure 0.9.8k-7ubuntu8.8 failed at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/ConfModule.pm line 59

Any clue what is going on?

Thanks

How were you trying to update Samba? What version of Ubuntu do you have?

[JackTheKnife]

Ubuntu 10.04 and using Update Manager

PS.

I looks like common update issue. Now I have problem with MySQL update:



Preconfiguring packages ...
Can't exec "/tmp/mysql-server-5.1.config.24401": Permission denied at /usr/share/perl/5.10/IPC/Open3.pm line 168.

Are you using Ubuntu or one of the derivatives, such as Xubuntu?
Are you using WUBI or a native installation?

Please open a terminal (Accessories > Terminal if I remember correctly, or Ctrl-Alt-T), and enter the following commands. Please post the results here.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
