gecko89wondering if anyone can help with a LAMP server?03:26
gecko89I only have the LA03:26
gecko89i've installed the php module, it doesn't seem to be working... phpinfo() yields a blank page03:28
ajmitchwhat did you install? libapache2-mod-php5 ?03:29
gecko89yes03:29
=== Felarin [n=sean@ntsvr1.abs.org.sg] has joined #Ubuntu-server
ajmitchdo you have php5.conf & php5.load symlinks in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled ?03:29
gecko89let me check03:29
gecko89I added the files.. is there some special way to handle them?03:30
ajmitchadded, how?03:30
gecko89cp03:30
ajmitchdid you just create the symlinks?03:30
gecko89no, what's a symlink?03:31
ajmitchuh oh03:31
ajmitchbest to just remove the files you copied, and use a2enmod03:31
ajmitchspecifically, a2enmod php503:32
gecko89how do i use a2enmod03:32
gecko89oh its just a command03:32
gecko89alright lemme try restarting apache03:33
ajmitchonce you restart apache, check /var/log/apache2/error.log03:33
ajmitchyou'd see a line similar to:03:34
ajmitch[Wed May 30 07:36:43 2007]  [notice]  Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) PHP/4.4.4-8+etch1 configured -- resuming normal operations03:34

ajmitchinteresting03:35
gecko89still getting a blank page03:36
ajmitchyou've installed php5 only from ubuntu repositories?03:36
ajmitchnot using getdeb.net or similar?03:36
gecko89i did apt-get install php5-common03:36
gecko89this is all a little different, i previously ran an apache 1 server with php 4 on windows03:39
ajmitchare you trying to load an xmlrpc extension in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini ?03:41
gecko89let's see here03:41
gecko89i don't think so, the only reference to xmlrpc in php.ini is:    [xmlrpc] 03:42
gecko89;xmlrpc_error_number = 003:42
gecko89;xmlrpc_errors = 003:42
ajmitchinteresting, I wonder why it's trying to load it. anyway, it's in the php5-xmlrpc package03:45
ajmitchand your sample phpinfo page, where is it?03:45
gecko89/var/www/03:45
gecko89document root03:45
ajmitchright, using long tags? 03:46
=== ajmitch would assume short opening tags is turned on anyway
gecko89this is what it is...03:46
gecko89<html>03:47
gecko89<body>03:47
gecko89<?php phpinfo();03:47
gecko89?>03:47
gecko89</body>03:47
gecko89</html>03:47
ajmitchok, which works fine for me03:48
ajmitchit does have a .php extension?03:48
gecko89yes03:48
=== ajmitch has to check the obvious first :)
gecko89at first firefox wouldn't recognize it, but i added the file type to apache2.conf03:49
ajmitchright, how did you add it?03:49
gecko89i just installed the php5-xmlrpc package, it no longer does the same error03:49
ajmitchthat addition should probably be removed now03:49
ajmitchsince php5.conf in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled has the right configuration syntax to use03:50
gecko89AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml03:50
gecko89took it out, still getting just a blank page03:52
gecko89apache gives an error apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName03:52
gecko89i dont think that has anything to do with it though03:52
ajmitchno, it shouldn't03:52
ajmitchnothing else in error.log?03:52
gecko89 nothing03:53

gecko89alright, i removed webmin04:03
gecko89still blank, heh04:03
gecko89is there any special change i need to make to apache2.conf, or did the add-module part take care of everything?04:04
gecko89er, mods-enabled04:04
ajmitchno, unless webmin broke the config :)04:05
gecko89well im checking paths and stuff, it's pointing to the right place04:06
gecko89php5.load:  LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so04:06
gecko89and libphp5.so is there04:06
gecko89i see php5.conf took care of the file types04:06
hadsIs phpinfo showing anything? The source file?04:06
ajmitchand does /etc/apache2/apache2.conf have these 2 lines?04:06
ajmitchInclude /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load04:06
ajmitchInclude /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf04:06
gecko89ajmitch, lemme check04:07
gecko89hads, the source file is showing the php script...04:07
gecko89yeah, that's screwed up04:08
gecko89ajmitch, it has both those lines just like that04:08
ajmitchhads: we know from apache's error.log that php is loaded at least04:09
hadsis php5.conf linked in? That will give it the filetypes to process.04:09
gecko89yup, linked it04:10
gecko89i first had that part wrong04:10
hadsIt could be that the module is loaded but no file types are assigned so they aren't being processed.04:10
gecko89<IfModule mod_php5.c>04:10
gecko89  AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php304:10

gecko89indubitably04:17
hadsOf course apache has been restarted? :)04:17
gecko89quite a bit yeah04:18
ajmitchhads: even checked that it's a file with a .php extension in /var/www :)04:18

gecko89just how you wrote it04:20
hadsWell I'm out of ideas.04:20
ajmitchhads: which is why I called for ideas :)04:20
gecko89i haven't actually restarted the PC, but honestly that shouldn't be needed on linux, right?04:21
ajmitchcertainly not04:21
gecko89two pieces of software made to go together, won't go together04:22
ibeardsleeI have the full path in the link if that would make a difference?04:26

=== ajmitch just has /var/www/php.php, and it works at http://localhost/php.php
gecko89that's the exact same filepath and even filename i've got04:28
gecko89the apache portion of the server works fine, its just the php isn't taking04:29

ajmitchcould be something like bad symlinks, edgy had some interesting things with the move to a more modular X05:01
ajmitchhm, a fresh install should never break like that05:01
ajmitchhave you asked in #ubuntu? it's not really something serverish 05:01

citybirdhi all. i am looking for a step by step guide to installing a mail gateway server using ubuntu. 11:25
ivoksinstall ubuntu-server, install postifx and add relayhost to postfix11:26
citybirdthanks looking that up11:27
citybirdi have part 1 and 2 done11:27
ivokswhen you install OS, you can come here for help11:27
ivoksoh, you did already :)11:28
citybirdyep11:28
ivoksopen /etc/postfix/main.cf and add relayhost = your_ISP_MX11:28
citybirdthought about doing it with gentoo but then thought better of it. I already deal with 2 gentoo web servers and dont want to expand that upgrade headache.11:29
citybirdivoks: this server only recieves email and forwards it to our exchange server. I will be adding clamav to it after i get that part working.11:30
ivoksok then11:30
ivoksinstead ISP_MX add exchange IP11:30
citybirdkool11:30
citybirdmain.cf iis a short file11:31
ivoksnext, add your domain to mydestination11:31
mpathyivoks: So I have to dist-upgrade to edgy.. then restart.. then dist-upgrade to feisty.. then restart?11:31
ivoksmpathy: dist-update to edgy, then yo feisty, then restart cause of new kernel11:32
ivokscitybird: you also need clamav-daemon, clamav-freshclam and amavisd-new11:33
ivoksfor content filtering11:34
citybirdright. sorry, im slow. first i want to make sure this box is forwarding emails11:34
ivoksok11:34
ivoksit's probably not yet :)11:34
citybirdwhat is the syntax of the mydestination line? mydestenation = domainname.com11:35
nrpilivoks: sorry, got called away from my computer11:36
ivokscitybird: just append your domain11:36
ivokscitybird: mydestination = localhost.localdomain, localhost.localdomain, localhost, your_domain11:36
nrpilivoks: users are also going to use ssh to login to the machine11:40
nrpilivoks: my idea was to use ldap for that11:40
ivoksso you want local users + domain users?11:41
ivoksor only domain users via AD?11:41
nrpilivoks: i want to use the domain users as local user logins11:42
ivoksdo you have AD already?11:42
nrpilyes11:42
ivoksyou can auth ssh (and all other) users trough samba11:42
ivoksso, once you connect samba to AD/kerberos11:43
ivoksjust set up pam to auth over samba11:43
nrpiloke11:44
ivoksso you don't need ldap :)11:44

Stonekeeperhi ivoks. Just to let you know, the server has been working great :) thanks again12:52
ivoksnp12:53
Stonekeeperapparently the bug has been open for years, and ubuntu devs aren't sorting it out :(12:53
ivokskhm, khm... :)12:53
Stonekeeperit's not even assigned!12:53
Stonekeeperout of interest, do you know if canonical is developing a GUI admin tool for ubuntu server?12:53
ivoksubuntu isn't just canonical12:54
Stonekeeperi know. however, that sounds like a story.12:54
ivoksafaik, shawarma is working on something...12:54
ivoksbut he would know better12:54
shawarmahm?12:54
Stonekeeperi'd really like to contribute to that12:54
ivoks:)12:54
=== ivoks hides
shawarmaWhich bug are we talking about?12:54
Stonekeeper(please tell me it's a python app!)12:54
Stonekeepershawarma: the bug was for the DAC960 driver12:55
StonekeeperI'll find it now12:55
ivoksshawarma: DAC960 modules isn't in initrd after install12:55
shawarmaivoks: Right.12:55
Stonekeeperhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/3103512:56
Stonekeeperit was reported over a year ago12:56
Stonekeeperthe fix has worked no problem so it's ok for me right now :) I was talking to ivoks about a GUI for ubuntu server though. He mentioned your name12:57
shawarmaRight. It's going to be a web based application. 12:57
Stonekeeperpython?12:57
shawarmaUnfortunately, no, I think.12:57
Stonekeeper:(12:57
Stonekeepermajor :(12:57
shawarmaI would have wished for it to be python, but:12:58
shawarmawww.ebox-platform.com  is in perl and it's just too complete to be ignored.12:58
ivoksi agree12:58
shawarmaIt's hard to justify building something new just to have it in another programming language.12:58
Stonekeepersure12:58
Stonekeeperbut think of the maintainability nightmare!12:59
shawarmaI'll just have to get myself some protective goggles so my eyes won't start to bleed to badly from looking at perl code. :(12:59
shawarmaStonekeeper: Well, maintainability is not entirely that simle.12:59
shawarmaStonekeeper: Upstream is alive and well, which moves a huge chunk of the maintainability problems away from us.12:59
Stonekeeperright01:00
Stonekeeperi was thinking of a utility for users used to the win server 200X interface01:00
shawarmaStonekeeper: Also, teaching the software to be python is harder and more time-consuming than to teach me to be more of a perl wizard.01:00
Stonekeeper"teaching the software to be python" <- ?01:01
shawarmato be perfectly honest, I'm not terribly interested in looking like something else for no othper purpose that for it to look like something else.01:01
Stonekeepersure01:01
shawarma"teaching the software to be python" == porting it to python.01:01
Stonekeeperi think the problem is, it's very easy to get windows admins. If the UI was the same, they could manage linux servers without retraining. It makes ubuntu server a viable option for places that think it's too much of a support risk.01:02
StonekeeperI'll be working soon for a place like this01:02
shawarmaif think that trying to obtain usability by looking like something else that some - *only* because of experience with it - find easy to use, is a failing strategy altogether.01:04
shawarma"I think"*01:04
Stonekeeperi agree01:04
Stonekeeperthis isn't my thinking, but i understand where they are coming from01:05
=== ||arifaX [n=||arifaX@inetpop1.witron.de] has joined #ubuntu-server
shawarmaYou can obtain ease of use in two major ways:01:05
shawarma1) Being easy01:05
shawarma2) Look like something that your users are used to01:05
shawarmaI aim for 1).01:05
Stonekeeperyeah. me too :D01:05
Stonekeeperthere isn't currently a decent samba/ldap/user management gui though is there?01:06
shawarmaI've just poked the kernel guys about including DAC960 into the default initramfs.01:16
shawarmaThey're all in Canada or USA, so they'll probably not respond just yet.01:17
Stonekeeperthanks shawarma01:27
Stonekeeperout of interest, is the initrd static and not based on your install preferences?01:28
shawarmaStonekeeper: It's already fixed, actually.01:28
shawarmaEven in Edgy.01:28
Stonekeeperah right, of scourse LTs is dapper :D01:29
shawarmaI didn't notice anything about LTS. Sorry.01:29
Stonekeeperat least the next LTS will have 3rd party support option which will mean you could get this in initrd by stealth01:30
