| ajmitch | ok, and is this not working? | 12:12 |
| mpathy | if it would I wouldnt write anything ;) | 12:12 |
| ajmitch | but you haven't written what it is doing | 12:13 |
| mpathy | (00:07:25) mpathy: ajmitch: I changed it and he puts out the help text on sudo apt-get -f install | 12:13 |
| mpathy | the help text of lilo, as it would run wrong configured | 12:14 |
| mpathy | but lilo doesnt need parameters | 12:14 |

| ajmitch | pastebin, I don't know what you're referring to | 12:14 |
| ajmitch | I haven't seriously used lilo for years | 12:15 |
| mpathy | http://pastie.caboo.se/72501.txt | 12:15 |
| ajmitch | ok, try dropping the postinst_hook line, and changing do_bootloader = no to do_bootloader = yes | 12:16 |
| mpathy | dropping? you mean commenting out? | 12:17 |
| ajmitch | yeah, that should work | 12:17 |
| mpathy | its a server who is somewhere other.. if it wont boot it would be bad.. | 12:18 |
| ajmitch | I know that feeling | 12:19 |
| ajmitch | is there a reason to use lilo, apart from that it usually just works? | 12:19 |
| mpathy | ajmitch: yeah it was because of some weird kind of config of the partitions and filesystems where my colleague said I HAVE to use it, because Grub doesnt work properly there.. I dont remember what exactly the problem was.. | 12:20 |
| ajmitch | exciting | 12:21 |
| mpathy | what means do_bootloader? shouldnt it do it every time? | 12:22 |
| mpathy | but it worked. i try to restart it now.. | 12:22 |
| ajmitch | do_bootloader is just an option for the complicated perl script that makes up the postinst | 12:23 |
| ajmitch | I don't follow most of it | 12:23 |
| mpathy | or, if I have solved the other weird things.. I have two mdadm.conf in two different places.. /etc/mdadm.conf and /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf | 12:23 |
| mpathy | oh okay | 12:23 |
| ajmitch | iirc it's been replaced in gutsy | 12:23 |
| mpathy | will gutsy be a LTR? | 12:24 |
| ajmitch | nope | 12:24 |
| ajmitch | (and nope, the same postinst is still used, just other parts of the build system replaced) | 12:24 |
| ajmitch | gutsy+1 may be LTS | 12:24 |
| mpathy | okay, than it was a good idea to upgrade to feisty.. need some new stuff on the server.. | 12:24 |
| === fernando [n=fernando@unaffiliated/musb] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| mpathy | ajmitch: do you know why I have two mdadm.conf? what is the redundant one and why its there? ;) | 12:26 |
| ajmitch | I only have one (/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf) | 12:26 |
| ajmitch | and this has been upgraded from somewhere near dapper to current gutsy | 12:26 |
| ajmitch | same file on the debian box here | 12:27 |
| mpathy | near dapper? | 12:27 |
| ajmitch | yeah, I installed initially from a daily testing iso of dapper | 12:28 |
| mpathy | okay.. I will note it.. if I got a not working system perhaps it was written in the wrong place | 12:28 |
| ajmitch | it appears that /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf takes priority if both exist | 12:29 |
| mpathy | yeah | 12:30 |
| mpathy | I will reboot.. Wish me luck.. | 12:30 |
| ajmitch | heh | 12:30 |

| mpathy | ajmitch: another funny thing.. dist-upgrade installed apache2! I didnt wanted that because I use now fat apache on my server | 12:40 |
| mpathy | perhaps some meta-package did it.. but it shouldnt be | 12:40 |
| ajmitch | if something wanted apache2 | httpd, and you didn't have another webserver installed that provides 'httpd', it'd install it | 12:41 |
| mpathy | ajmitch: But today, the thoughts have changed, and people know that Apache isnt the only httpd ;) so I wonder why Lighttpd isnt in this metapackage | 12:48 |
| mpathy | however.. I deinstalled Apache | 12:48 |
| ajmitch | because any httpd package can provide the virtual package 'httpd', and lighttpd does | 12:48 |

| gejr | I've lost connection to my ubuntu server. It was connected through wireless (doh..)..my question is..is ifplugd loaded by default on ubuntu servers? | 02:45 |
| gejr | cause then i should be able to get in touch with it just by plugging in a network cable, right? | 02:45 |
| gejr | i reaaally don't want to reboot it, and i haven't got a monitor for it | 02:46 |
| gejr | so ssh'ing in is my only option | 02:46 |
| gejr | but for some odd reason it's gone offline :/ | 02:46 |
| gejr | it's been on for 4 months straight now | 02:46 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@32-190.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| gejr | can't anyone please take a look at their ubuntu-server's and see if ifplugd is running and if it's running as default. | 02:50 |
| ivoks | not running | 02:51 |
| gejr | I have a problem if it isn't...i'll have to get a new monitor and hope it'll be detected as soon as i plug it in.. | 02:51 |
| gejr | doh :S | 02:51 |
| gejr | thanks ivoks | 02:51 |
| ivoks | ? | 02:51 |
| ivoks | monitor? | 02:51 |
| ivoks | ifplugd is just for ethernet devices | 02:51 |
| gejr | yea..i've lost connection to my server..it was connected with wireless and has been up for 4 months | 02:51 |
| gejr | it doesn't have a monitor, so i can't connect to it and see what's causing the error | 02:52 |
| ivoks | ah... | 02:52 |
| gejr | but if ifplugd was running it'd be easy to just plug in a network cable and check it out | 02:52 |
| ivoks | connections are automaticaly brought up, if it's so configured | 02:52 |
| gejr | now i'll need to pass some commands to it to get it up&running.. | 02:52 |
| gejr | i guess i'll need to carry a monitor around :( | 02:53 |
| gejr | which log file is most likely to reveal the reason why the wireless net went down? | 02:53 |
| ivoks | syslog | 02:53 |
| gejr | i thought i needed ifplugd to get wired network working instantly? | 02:54 |
| gejr | syslog..ok thanks:* | 02:54 |
| ivoks | if your ethernet is configured as auto and dhcp in /etc/network/interfaces, then you just need to plug in cable | 02:55 |
| ivoks | i'm not sure for static... | 02:55 |
| gejr | i haven't touched the /etc/network/interfaces i think..so if default is to have it running with dhcp then i guess i'm in luck | 02:55 |
| ivoks | default is how you set it up during installation | 02:56 |
| gejr | if i only could remember ;) | 02:56 |
| gejr | i tried plugging in a usb keyboard this morning..and running things like "dhclient ath0" | 02:57 |
| gejr | but i'm not really sure what state it's in at all | 02:57 |
| gejr | didn't seem to bring it up at least | 02:57 |
| gejr | it's weird..none of the other computers in the vicinity has lost their connection | 02:57 |
| ivoks | you have to log in first :) | 02:58 |
| ivoks | you can do one simple test; | 02:58 |
| ivoks | log in | 02:58 |
| ivoks | and run find / | 02:58 |
| gejr | i started by typing in username and password.. | 02:59 |
| ivoks | if your hear disk working or led blinking, then your computer is running | 02:59 |
| ivoks | if not, it's dead | 02:59 |
| gejr | good idea | 02:59 |
| gejr | is find / the most resource intensive command i could run?:) | 03:00 |
| ivoks | it's easiest to type :) | 03:00 |
| gejr | hehe great stuff..i'll try it as soon as i get home :) | 03:01 |
| gejr | thanks a lot for your help mr. | 03:01 |
