officepack destroys mysql after uninstalling

[TitanLV]

Hi, I have Newest OCS Inventory 2.4 server installed. 1) Tried to install several plugins. 2) Ony on plugin officepack whn I pressed install - webbrovser tab were working on something wery long - so long my session in OCS ended. 3) after I testes plugins I noticed officepack plugins wasnt working, there wasnt any sign office keys on OCS DB (I testes VBA stript on client pcs worked ) 4) After several weeks I decided to remove plugin 5) pressed that X to remove plugin and my browsers tab started to woring again. Waited more than 30 minutes and afcourse OCS session was ennded. 6) tried to log in OCS web console- none of my user accounts was able to log in OCS - no error shown. 7) restarted apache - no success 8) restarted whole OCS server 9) when tried to open OCS web console got error, ERROR: MySql connection problem 2002 No such file or directory 9.1) tried to restart mysql - sql could not be restarted: Job for mysql.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. 10) I am not an expert in MySql so I restored OCS server from backup. 11) after server restore tried to remove plugin again and same thing web browsers tab starts to spin like working on something. This time I didnt waited so long and tried to close and reopen OCs web console 12) Console wasnt working again. 13) Restarted apache and console worked 14) loged in OCS web console and went to plugins manager - officepack plugin still present (steps 11-14 tried several times)

Wanted to mention that others (up to date plugins are working) and can be uninstalled fast and easy.

My Servers parameters: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS PHP Version :7.0.22 Web Server : Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Database Server: (Ubuntu) version 5.7.20-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 Version OCSReports: 2.4

If you are interested in this issue I could give you more intel. Probably could make another server clone to experiment on.

P.S. Sorry for bad English.

So MySQL server could not be started:

I found reason why MySQL wasnt working. When started uninstalling officepack plugin Apache error logs grown indefinitely filling up whole hard drive in about 15 minutes.

[TitanLV]

So far I understood that plugins.class.php in line 255 and 256 is looking for those two files english.txt and english.tmp which doesnt exists. and probalby next sript lines 260, 261, 266 depends on those two files.

Anyway... Happy New Year!

So what I did: Created New folder "english" in folder "language" and copied file "en_GB.txt" from "plugins\language\" and renamed it to "english.txt" Now plugin is uninstalled from OCS, with some MySQL error notification

Confirm the problem. I faced it after update OCS 2.4 to 2.4.1.

I installed OCS from scratch to newest version 2.4.1(without db migration) and now plugin is working like a charm.
