Fresh install of Plesk 12.5 on Debian 8 broken

Hello,

I've just reinstalled my server with Debian 8 and tried to install Plesk 12.5 with typical installation option, and the install fails with this error :

===> Cumulative APS controller upgrade (final stage) has been started.
Trying to set up APS controller database... APS db accessibility check was skipped.
/opt/psa/bootstrapper/pp12.5.30-bootstrapper/bootstrapper.sh: line 4506: 29526 Segmentation fault $PRODUCT_ROOT_D/bin/sw-engine-pleskrun "$@"

ERROR while trying to store APS controller db connection parameters into product db
Check the error reason(see log file: /var/log/plesk/install/plesk_12.5.30_installation.log), fix and try again

What can I do ?

I've tried to use "/usr/local/psa/bin/repair --help" and I get a Segmentation fault

I've done the micro updates

Thank you
 
Segmentation fault usually related to lack of resources or problem with hardware. Have you tested RAM and HDD at least?

I've just asked my server to be tested, and the hardware works fine. Also, Mysql fails to start.

I've tried to reinstall Debian 8 and immediately after Plesk 12.5, and it still doesn't work :

http://pastie.org/10516631

I've looked at " /var/log/plesk/install/plesk_12.5.30_installation.log", but I see no clue in it on how to solve this problem. Perhaps should I try to reinstall Plesk but with Ubuntu instead of Debian ? I haven't installed any program besides Plesk, so I can't see what isn't working. Until yesterday, my server was running fine with Debian 7. I just wanted to upgrade to Debian 8 because of the end of support of the PHP version shipped with Debian 7.
 
I've finally reinstalled my server with Ubuntu 14 and Plesk install went fine. I don't know why Debian 8 had so much errors.
 
Hi LaurentR2D2,

could you please provide information about your source list?

Such an error can as well appear, if the "libmysqlclient" package isn't the correct one for your database - server. Try to re-install your "libmysqlclient" package.

Thank you for your help, but as I told above, I've switched to Ubuntu. What I don't understand is why Plesk installer don't check the dependencies problem. I'm thinking at the libmysqlclient version you tell me appearing as not correct. I haven't installed it myself. The Plesk installer has installed everything (Apache, Php, Mysql, ...) on my server. Now I can't install any extension with Ubuntu. I had this problem before, that's why I've tried Debian 7, but now I can't use this distribution, since PHP is not maintained anymore on it, so it won't get any security upgrade.
 
Hi LaurentR2D2,

if you now experience issues with another operating system, consider to open a NEW thread, because it will confuse forum - users, if they search for Debian - related issues/problems/errors and their suggestions and find a thread where Ubuntu - related issues/investigations are discussed.
