| kshah | command line cmd for the active processes? i need to kill mysql, it just crapped itself | 12:59 |
|---|---|---|
| Kamping_Kaiser | whats your question? | 12:59 |
| kshah | I need to kill mysql and restart | 01:00 |
| kshah | it just went nuts | 01:00 |
| kshah | lspci I thought listed processes | 01:00 |
| kshah | when I try it, I get input / output error | 01:00 |
| ajmitch | no, 'ps aux' would give you a list of active processes | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | but you don't need to kill mysql that way | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | sudo invoke-rc.d mysql restart | 01:01 |
| kshah | unable to execute | 01:01 |
| kshah | (i just tried it, thats what i got) | 01:01 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ajmitch, is that a upstartism or a way of restarting i havent seen before? | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | Kamping_Kaiser: no, it's a debianism way of running the initscripts | 01:02 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ajmitch, neat. never seen it before | 01:02 |
| kshah | nor had I | 01:02 |
| ajmitch | kshah: what did you try & run? | 01:02 |
| kshah | sudo invoke-rc.d mysql restartt | 01:03 |
| kshah | won't work | 01:03 |
| ajmitch | I hope that 'restartt' was a typo | 01:04 |
| kshah | it was :) | 01:04 |
| kshah | I'm using drupal (a LAMP based CMS) and I just started getting mysql errors, someone told me to repair the table | 01:05 |
| kshah | but I can't even restart mysql, or shut it down, or apparently anything | 01:05 |
| ajmitch | mysql from ubuntu packages? | 01:05 |
| kshah | yeah, I used the Ubuntu Server 7 guide to install everything | 01:06 |
| kshah | so it came pre installed i guess | 01:06 |
| ajmitch | ok, and what did you say you got when you tried to run that? | 01:07 |
| ajmitch | and what do you mean by mysql going nuts, also? | 01:08 |
| kshah | the error was: | 01:09 |
| kshah | unable to execute /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: Input/output error | 01:09 |
| ajmitch | sigh, I'm being called away, I'll let Kamping_Kaiser help :) | 01:09 |
| ajmitch | back later | 01:09 |
| kshah | k thx | 01:09 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gah. i'm only here for 10 more min :S *reads up* | 01:09 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ajmitch, catch you later | 01:09 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | pity i almost never use mysql. | 01:11 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | kshah, can you stop it? | 01:11 |
| kshah | don't think so | 01:11 |
| kshah | kill -9 mysql ? | 01:11 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | /etc/init.d/mysql-server stop | 01:11 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ouch, my RSI is kicking in :S | 01:11 |
| kshah | lol | 01:12 |
| kshah | uh oh | 01:12 |
| kshah | you may have been right | 01:12 |
| kshah | well, scorpking might have been | 01:12 |
| kshah | Read-only file system | 01:12 |
| kshah | how can I check diskspace? | 01:12 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | df -h | 01:12 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | and df | 01:13 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | (-h is human readable, but the rounding may confuse things) | 01:13 |
| kshah | no, less than 1% of everything is used | 01:13 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | what about `mount` | 01:13 |
| kshah | I just logged in, it said new mail, I wrote mail, it says 'read only' | 01:13 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | check if anythings marked ro | 01:13 |
| kshah | oh the TEMP folder maybe | 01:13 |
| kshah | could that be it? | 01:13 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | temp is ro?? | 01:13 |
| kshah | a memory leak, causing the temp folder to be filled, unemptied | 01:13 |
| kshah | causing other bad shit to go down? | 01:14 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | if temp is full, thats a bad look | 01:14 |
| kshah | temp is ro?? I don't know what you mean | 01:14 |
| kshah | I'm new to linux | 01:14 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ro=read only | 01:14 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | kshah, can you put the output of `df -h && mount` in pastebin for me to look at? | 01:14 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | !paste | 01:14 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 01:14 |
| kshah | yes, temp is RO in that case, the error returned from the 'mail' command was /tmp/mail.Rx(some other chars here): Read only file system | 01:14 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | temp being read only is a bad thing | 01:15 |
| kshah | I can't run mount command | 01:15 |
| kshah | Input / output error | 01:15 |
| kshah | df -h works | 01:15 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | give me the df -h output then | 01:15 |
| mathiaz | kshah: do you see any hardware problems ? | 01:15 |
| kshah | I don't believe there, this is a server running off of a laptop thought | 01:16 |
| kshah | *though | 01:16 |
| kshah | so... | 01:16 |
| ajmitch | I/O errors like that generally aren't good | 01:16 |
| ajmitch | usually dmesg will have more info in that case | 01:16 |
| kshah | going to pastebin in a sec | 01:16 |
| kshah | http://pastebin.com/m72ef7083 | 01:18 |
| kshah | Kamping_Kaiser: ^^ | 01:18 |
| === pschulz01 [n=pschulz0@ubuntu/member/pschulz01] has joined #ubuntu-server | ||
| Kamping_Kaiser | kshah, i'd look in dmesg like ajmitch suggests - `dmesg | tail -n 30` | 01:18 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser tried to tab complete dmesg *slap* | ||
| ajmitch | if dmesg will run :) | 01:19 |
| kshah | I can't run that command | 01:19 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ajmitch, quite *heh* | 01:19 |
| kshah | I've already tried at scorpkings behest | 01:19 |
| ajmitch | sounds like you have some far more serious issues there | 01:19 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | what about `tail -f /var/log/syslog` | 01:19 |
| kshah | that works | 01:19 |
| kshah | ill pastebin | 01:19 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | when i started getting errors like that i put the drive in the fridge and started data recovery stuff.. :| | 01:20 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | that was a laptop hdd too | 01:20 |
| kshah | http://pastebin.com/m6853111d | 01:20 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | could you run with -n 30? `tail -n 30 -f /var/log/syslog` | 01:21 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | er, no -f | 01:21 |
| mathiaz | kshah: yeah.. it seems that your hd is dead | 01:21 |
| kshah | shut it down ? | 01:21 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | kshah, what season is it where you are? | 01:22 |
| kshah | summer, i'm in in NJ | 01:22 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | summer, your going to have trouble finding somewhere cold then *heh* | 01:22 |
| kshah | http://pastebin.com/m245a3225 | 01:22 |
| kshah | it is in an air conditioned office, I guess its just too old and too much of a over heating laptop to handle it all | 01:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | drive doesnt look good | 01:23 |
| kshah | how can I shut it down? | 01:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | halt | 01:23 |
| kshah | sudo halt? | 01:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | or the power button | 01:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | yea | 01:23 |
| kshah | lol input output error | 01:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | try method B | 01:23 |
| kshah | I'm not there | 01:23 |
| ajmitch | looks like it can't run anything not in the cache | 01:23 |
| kshah | it's about 20 miles away | 01:23 |
| ajmitch | oops | 01:23 |
| kshah | yeah... | 01:24 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ah | 01:24 |
| kshah | init 6? | 01:24 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | you can try it | 01:24 |
| kshah | init: not being executed as init | 01:25 |
| kshah | I don't know what that means | 01:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | it means you need to get on the phone :) | 01:25 |
| kshah | oh NOs lol | 01:25 |
| kshah | oh jeez... this is going to suck | 01:25 |
| kshah | kill -9 kills a process right? | 01:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | yes. term, iirc | 01:26 |
| ajmitch | echo O > /proc/sysrq-trigger | 01:26 |
| ajmitch | a truly evil way of shutting down | 01:26 |
| kshah | if it works.. | 01:27 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | its still evil. | 01:27 |
| kshah | why is that? | 01:27 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ajmitch, is that 'shut down' or 'die now' | 01:27 |
| kshah | permission denied (ran as sudo) | 01:28 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser wonders if `kill -15 `pidof init`` counts as 'shut down' (as i think about it, no it doesnt) | ||
| jdstrand | kshah: sudo sh -c 'echo O > /proc/sysrq-trigger' | 01:28 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser debates this as a reason to look into ramdiscs again | ||
| kshah | command didn't do anythin jdstrand | 01:29 |
| kshah | well, it may have.. | 01:30 |
| kshah | but.. | 01:30 |
| kshah | i'm still connected ssh | 01:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i'm heading out | 01:30 |
| ajmitch | there's always the option of getting in a car & going there | 01:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | catch you all later on | 01:30 |
| kshah | that is what is going to happen it looks like | 01:30 |
| kshah | thank you all for the help | 01:30 |
| ajmitch | always a nice time for a scenic drive | 01:30 |
| jdstrand | kshah: I was addressing only the 'permission denied' error. try 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' and see if stuff is shutting down. I looked at your errors in pastebin-- my sympathies... | 01:31 |
| ajmitch | jdstrand: triggering a shutdown that way should just do a poweroff, no gentle shutdown | 01:32 |

| jordi | my initial idea was to make the necessary changes tp the installer | 02:59 |

| jordi | which is good, specially network | 02:59 |
| jordi | aha | 02:59 |

| BenC | I'm not asking for a lecture on firewalls, I'm trying to answer a customers question :) | 04:00 |
| nealmcb | what sort of firewall needs do you have? | 04:00 |
| BenC | like a local firewall, like windows offers | 04:00 |
| kshah | my temp folder has become read only, something bad happened and I may have a hardware failure, how can I clear the cache by the command line? | 04:01 |
| BenC | kshah: sudo sync | 04:01 |
| nealmcb | BenC: you may get a better answer on that in #ubuntu | 04:02 |
| BenC | kshah: but that may fail if you already have a failure in hw | 04:02 |
| kshah | BenC: it did indeed fail | 04:02 |
| BenC | nealmcb: I'm not trying real scroll through on #ubuntu, I'm hoping the server team can answer a question for the kernel team :) | 04:02 |
| mathiaz | BenC: there are a couple of GUI that exists, but I don't remember them right now. | 04:03 |
| nealmcb | I've heard of firestarter, kraal (mentioned in an old note from a blueprint I have), etc | 04:04 |
| nealmcb | but I can't recommend anything personally | 04:04 |
| mathiaz | nealmcb: are these in main ? | 04:04 |
| nealmcb | no idea. I don't use them :-) | 04:04 |
| nealmcb | BenC: moving up the stack, I see :-) | 04:04 |
| BenC | nealmcb: yes, but basically it's reality already matching title though :) | 04:05 |
| nealmcb | i've uses shorewall years ago and liked it, but it may be more complicated than they want | 04:05 |
| nealmcb | wasn't gui as I recall | 04:06 |
| mathiaz | nealmcb: correct. shorewall has a set of text files | 04:06 |
| BenC | yeah, this customer is looking for a desktop solution, and even though I agree it's a "warm fuzzy" sort of thing, it is a selling point for getting users to switch from os-competitor to ubuntu | 04:07 |
| mathiaz | nealmcb: to describe your network. It's then translated into iptables rules. | 04:07 |
| mathiaz | BenC: you could point him to firestarter | 04:07 |
| mathiaz | BenC: it's in universe | 04:07 |
| BenC | mathiaz: ok, thanks | 04:07 |
| mathiaz | BenC: and it seems to be maintained upstream | 04:07 |
| mathiaz | BenC: However I've never used it - so I don't know how simple it is | 04:07 |
| BenC | mathiaz: customer mentioned that program, so I'll let them know it's in universe | 04:10 |

| Yahooadam | ive got a problem with my server (again) | 10:50 |
| Yahooadam | getting grub error 24 (again i think) | 10:51 |
| Yahooadam | How would i go about fixing it, if i do a sudo mount hda1 /mnt/temp | 10:52 |
| Yahooadam | i get a wrong FS type error | 10:52 |
| Yahooadam | and dmesg logs - "[ 843.992000] EXT3-fs: hda1: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (1000100)." | 10:52 |
| sommer | Yahooadam: not sure if this applies to you but: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-330229.html | 10:57 |
| sommer | looks like the grub 24 error is bad news for your hard drive. | 10:57 |
| sommer | more from the grub manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Stage1-errors | 10:59 |
| Yahooadam | dang :( | 11:07 |
| Yahooadam | u mean i have to re-install again :'( | 11:07 |
| sommer | Yahooadam: possibly. You might try booting from a CD and seeing if you can access the partition. | 11:11 |
| Yahooadam | im on a booted CD :p | 11:12 |
| Yahooadam | and when i try and mount, thats the error | 11:12 |
| Yahooadam | no way to repair ? | 11:15 |
| Yahooadam | or atleast recover my hda1 ... | 11:15 |

| Fibres | Does not have anything in it. | 11:29 |
| Fibres | Do I need to install them via apt-get. If so what do i need to install. Name of package would be good. | 11:29 |
| mathiaz | Fibres: linux-source | 11:30 |
| soren | Fibres: linux-source-2.6.15 | 11:31 |

| Yahooadam | 700mb :( | 11:32 |
| Yahooadam | dang | 11:32 |
| Fibres | Which would I be better installing linux-source or linux-source-2.6.15? | 11:32 |
| soren | Fibres: Either. | 11:32 |
| soren | Fibres: :) | 11:32 |

| Yahooadam | :( | 12:09 |
| soren | I've never done it, really. I usually have my data stored in /home (and /var/lib/mysql) and all my config is in /etc, so I just grab the list of installed packages and install them on a fresh system. | 12:09 |
| Yahooadam | you can grab a list of installed packages ? | 12:10 |
| Yahooadam | dang i need to learn linux :p | 12:10 |
| soren | But moving it to a new disk isn't really that hard. Install the new disk, partition it, mount the filesystems where they should be and restore from the old system. | 12:10 |
| soren | Yahooadam: dpkg --get-selections | 12:10 |
| soren | Yahooadam: That's the machine-readable version. | 12:10 |
| soren | Yahooadam: ...which you can feed to dpkg --set-selections. | 12:10 |
| soren | Yahooadam: 'dpkg -l' is more human readable. | 12:11 |
| Yahooadam | wow | 12:14 |
| Yahooadam | i just fixed my problem :o | 12:14 |
