| flyingparchment | i'm having problems install 7.10 on a sparc enterprise T5120 - it's hung twice during package installation. is this a known issue? | 00:47 |
| Deeps | urr | 01:06 |
| Deeps | i dont think sparc is supported, only x86 and 64bit amd/intel | 01:06 |
| flyingparchment | if it wasn't supported i think the installation would stop a little bit earlier than that ;) | 01:07 |
| flyingparchment | it's not supported in 8.04, but 7.10 is | 01:07 |
| Deeps | true | 01:08 |
| flyingparchment | hmm.. maybe this time it didn't hang, it just took an hour to get past whatever it was doing | 01:23 |
| Deeps | alt+f4 | 01:24 |
| Deeps | switches you to the logging vt | 01:24 |
| flyingparchment | serial console | 01:24 |
| Deeps | oh, heh | 01:25 |
| flyingparchment | the system doesn't even have a graphics card ;) | 01:25 |
| === RoAk is now known as RoAkSoAx | ||
| flyingparchment | heh, managed to install it, now i get segfaults while compiling php. guess the T2 isn't quite supported yet ;) | 03:02 |
| cody-somerville | Woot. :) | 03:19 |
| cody-somerville | I got work to use Ubuntu on its two new servers. <g> | 03:19 |
| cyris| | Hey everyone. I've just finished installing cups. I've added a printer and now want to push drivers to windows clients. i'm running the command cupsaddsmb -a but it seems to just hang after I enter my root password, any ideas? | 03:23 |
| cyris| | The server is a p3 900mhz | 03:24 |
| cyris| | running 8.04 | 03:24 |
| cody-somerville | cyris|, I've never set that up before but I found a pretty comprehensive tutorial: http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netsysm/article.php/3621876 | 03:30 |
| cyris| | cody-someville thanks I will take a look. | 03:40 |
| cody-somerville | Where is the survey described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/Survey/Launch ? | 03:48 |
| * nealmcb hopes atomicsparc doesn't run into avahi problems with his own .local domain.... | 05:14 | |
| osmosis | what time would /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 run? | 06:22 |
| hads | osmosis: It's run from /etc/cron.daily/ which is defined in /etc/crontab as 25 6 * * * | 06:49 |
| hads | (it being logrotate) | 06:49 |
| hads | In case you arent familiar with cron, that means 0625 every day. | 06:50 |
| hads | What's the way to keep guests clocks in sync with KVM? | 06:54 |
| hads | s/the way/the recommended way/ | 06:54 |
| osmosis | hads: can you tell me what this means? | 06:55 |
| osmosis | 0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * www-data [ -x /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -a -f /etc/awstats/awstats.conf -a -r /var/log/apache/access.log ] && /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=awstats -update >/dev/null | 06:55 |
| osmosis | I dont understand what the whole part in brackets is for. | 06:56 |
| hads | osmosis: [ is an alias for the test command (a builting in bash or executable in sh). You can get information about builtin commands by using help, e.g. help [ or help test | 06:58 |
| hads | Basically it's doing a bunch of tests before it runs the script (after the &&). Making sure files exist and are executable etc. | 06:59 |
| osmosis | hads: I had to remove that block because it was stopping it from working. | 07:00 |
| hads | I assume one of the tests was failing then. They're probably there for a reason :) | 07:01 |
| osmosis | hads: good point | 07:04 |
| osmosis | hads: it was just bugging me that it wasnt working, but now that I know it works, maybe ill reinvestigate | 07:05 |
| osmosis | hads: one of the issues im having right now is if the first cron process doesnt finish within 10 min, it launches another and they start overlaping. | 07:05 |
| hads | osmosis: I don't know that much about awstats really. | 07:16 |
| sten_ | Hi. anyone here? | 07:55 |
| LMJ | question around fetchmail/procmail : fetchmail pick up my emails from a remote pop3 server but delivery them on /var/mail/~ instead of the rule i've put in /etc/procmailrc to put them in ~/mail/INBOX do you know where could be the issue ? | 08:57 |
| _ruben | LMJ: apparently fetchmail is doing the local delivery itself, and not using procmail to do so, its probably a configuration setting somewhere (in fetchmail) | 09:12 |
| LMJ | hum, let me see _ruben , thanks | 09:13 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | \o/ got anonftparchive syncing | 09:13 |
| LMJ | strance _ruben, I can't see any fetchmail information to configure it on that way | 09:25 |
| _ruben | http://www.ilkertemir.com/document/fetchmail-procmail.html .. first link on google for "fetchmail procmail" | 09:26 |
| _ruben | the "mda" option seems to be what you're looking for | 09:27 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | is packages.u.c running like treakle for anyone else? | 09:29 |
| nrpil | hello people, i'm trying to install ubuntu server edition but the installer cannot find the package efi-modules | 11:18 |
| nrpil | i've looked on the cdrom and it's indeed not there, it's not even an ubuntu package, it is however a debian package | 11:18 |
| nrpil | could someone help me ? | 11:21 |
| Deeps | !info efi-modules | 11:23 |
| ubottu | Package efi-modules does not exist in hardy | 11:23 |
| Deeps | sounds like it could be a bug assuming you're attempting to install a hardy server | 11:23 |
| Deeps | have you looked on launchpad to see if there are any other reports of thi? | 11:24 |
| nrpil | Deeps: yes i did, one moment | 11:25 |
| nrpil | Deeps: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/144207 | 11:26 |
| uvirtbot | Launchpad bug 144207 in debian-installer "gusty installation failed with "Hash Sum mismatch"" [Undecided,Invalid] | 11:26 |
| nrpil | Deeps: same error so i can conferm it's still valid | 11:26 |
| nrpil | confirm | 11:26 |
| Deeps | same error? "DEBUG: resoluver (efi-modules): package doesn't exist (ignored)" ? | 11:27 |
| Deeps | that's not actually the error being reported btw | 11:27 |
| Deeps | and infact, that's not a show-stopping error | 11:28 |
| Deeps | "Failed to fetch cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)/pool/main/x/auth/xauth_1.0.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Hash Sum mismatch" is the error being reported here, and chances are that's due to a defect on the CD | 11:28 |
| Deeps | (the physical media) | 11:28 |
| nrpil | Deeps: i've tested the cdrom | 11:28 |
| Deeps | you need to find your actual error | 11:28 |
| nrpil | Deeps: and it is a showstopper, since i cannot continue | 11:28 |
| Deeps | as that efi-modules line, if it's as mentioned in the bug report you've listed, is not an error | 11:29 |
| Deeps | but rather some debug output (notice the "ignored" at the end of the line) | 11:29 |
| Deeps | look higher up for what's stopping you | 11:29 |
| nrpil | ok, one moment | 11:29 |
| nrpil | i also see a bad md5sum but i tested the cd ? | 11:31 |
| Deeps | it's all about context, if the md5sum error results in more significant failures, then i'd recommend reburning | 11:32 |
| Deeps | compare the md5 of the iso with that listed on the download page | 11:32 |
| Deeps | before reburning | 11:32 |
| nrpil | Deeps: ok, i'll download it again, md5sum it and burn it, seems like the cd test isn't doing what i expected | 11:34 |
| nrpil | Deeps: thanks ! | 11:49 |

| digitalspaghetti | Hey folks, I'm trying to upgrade my remote server to 8.04, but at the moment I keep getting this issue: http://dpaste.com/48175/ | 11:59 |
| digitalspaghetti | i've run aptitude clean and i also ran dpkg --configure -a | 12:00 |
| ogra | did you use th eupdate-manager as recommended ? | 12:00 |
| digitalspaghetti | orga, i used do-release-update, as it's a CLI server, no X on it | 12:00 |
| ogra | apt and aptitude wont do the right thing here, its expected that you have to install stuff manually alongside and work aournd probs | 12:00 |
| ogra | right | 12:00 |
| ogra | thats the cli variant | 12:01 |
| ogra | (still update-manager though :) ) | 12:01 |
| digitalspaghetti | i did try that first, but when i broke, i tried to use aptitude full-upgrade | 12:01 |
| digitalspaghetti | when i do update manager, i get a different, but similar error: | 12:02 |
| ogra | did you update to the patest packages before starting (from gutsy-updates) ? | 12:02 |
| ogra | *latest | 12:02 |
| digitalspaghetti | http://dpaste.com/48176/ | 12:02 |
| digitalspaghetti | yes | 12:02 |
| ogra | hmm, that looks like the volid package was corrupted during download or so | 12:02 |
| digitalspaghetti | i've cleared out the package cache | 12:03 |
| ogra | (the locale warnings are ok) | 12:03 |
| ogra | well, the package cache only hodls the debs | 12:03 |
| ogra | *holds | 12:03 |
| digitalspaghetti | also, i had issues yesterday because my server is only 256mb, and i kept getting a seg fault when running it | 12:03 |
| digitalspaghetti | i had my server upgraded to 1gb today to run the upgrade | 12:04 |
| ogra | what you look for is the .list file for volumeid in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ | 12:04 |
| digitalspaghetti | ok | 12:04 |
| ogra | hmm | 12:04 |
| cody-somerville | If there is a website that has register globals enabled and there is a page that checks to see if "sql" is set in $_GET and if so doesn't set $sql but later executes $sql, what is the quantified risk acknowledging that there are no form inputs that pass sql via GET to this page? | 12:05 |
| ogra | but such a package doesnt even exist | 12:05 |
| digitalspaghetti | you want me to remove it? | 12:05 |
| ogra | i wonder where it comes from first place | 12:05 |
| ogra | apt-cache madison volumeid | 12:06 |
| ogra | what does that give you ? | 12:06 |
| digitalspaghetti | nothing | 12:07 |
| ogra | weird | 12:09 |
| ogra | do you get it as well if you try to remove evms-ncurses manually ? | 12:10 |
| digitalspaghetti | yes :/ | 12:11 |
| ogra | grep volumeid /var/lib/dpkg/info/evms-ncurses.list | 12:12 |
| ogra | ? | 12:12 |
| digitalspaghetti | nope, nothing - the file just contains some paths, thats it | 12:12 |
| ogra | dpkg -l evms-ncurses ? | 12:14 |
| ogra | grab the package with the right version from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/evms/ and manually install it with dpkg -i, then try again | 12:14 |
| digitalspaghetti | http://dpaste.com/48177/ | 12:14 |
| ogra | could it be that you ran out of diskspace or so during the upgrade ? that would explain the corruption | 12:15 |
| digitalspaghetti | no, got unlimited diskspace | 12:16 |
| digitalspaghetti | i downloaded the .deb for my system, still getting the error | 12:16 |
| digitalspaghetti | http://dpaste.com/48178/ | 12:17 |
| ogra | the thing is that there is never been a package like "volumeid" ever in ubuntu, i dont understand why it looks for it | 12:18 |
| ogra | do you have any non ubuntu entries in your sources.list ? | 12:19 |
| digitalspaghetti | i'll check | 12:30 |
| digitalspaghetti | nope, just standard hh updates | 12:30 |
| ogra | hmm, could be realted to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager-core/+bug/217574 | 12:34 |
| digitalspaghetti | i just pointed my sources back to gutsy, and tried aptitude update && aptitude upgrade, and now i get the same error with a different package :/ | 12:34 |
| uvirtbot | Launchpad bug 217574 in update-manager-core "Could not calculate the upgrade" [Undecided,New] | 12:34 |
| digitalspaghetti | removing /var/lib/dpgk/info seemed to do it | 12:50 |

| dmnd | are there vserver kernel images for 64 bit cpu's available? | 13:15 |
| dmnd | hi | 14:07 |
| ctx144k | hello all | 14:58 |
| ctx144k | is there a way to start own scripts while startup/shutdown in ubuntu-server? | 14:59 |
| ctx144k | something like autoexec.bat under dos | 14:59 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | crons @reboot option? | 14:59 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | or create an init script | 14:59 |
| ctx144k | is there existing a ready script for that? | 15:00 |
| ctx144k | cause, i dont want create something what is already existing | 15:00 |
| AlexC_ | hey all | 15:00 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | yes. .. crontab | 15:01 |
| AlexC_ | if I get something like this in my logs: 'su[28535]: Successful su for tangocms by root' that means that 'root' switched user to 'tangocms' correct? | 15:02 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | and perhaps /etc/rc.local | 15:02 |
| mralphabet | AlexC_: yes | 15:06 |
| AlexC_ | mralphabet, thanks | 15:07 |
| ctx144k | Kamping_Kaiser, thx | 15:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ctx144k, np | 15:29 |
| AlexC_ | how can I get the disk-space usage via CLI? | 16:14 |
| Nafallo | df -h | 16:23 |
| AlexC_ | thanks, | 16:24 |
| osmosis | how do I get the uuid for a disk, for the fstab ? | 19:14 |
| blue-frog | vol_id /dev/sda1 | 19:18 |
| AlexC_ | guys, I've got a really weird problem with 'tar'. I am running this as root: # tar -xzf php-5.2.6.tar.gz and I am getting an error similar to this for every single file in the archive: tar: php-5.2.6/CREDITS: Cannot change ownership to uid 1002, gid 1002: Disk quota exceeded | 19:40 |
| AlexC_ | why on earth is it trying to change the ownership to 1002? | 19:40 |
| hattrick | why is your disk quota exceeded? | 19:41 |
| hattrick | guys...is munin not working out of the box on ubuntu 8.04? | 19:41 |
| AlexC_ | hattrick, no, it is no where near. I am using 2.1gb out of 30gb | 19:41 |
| hattrick | usermod -u 1002 | 19:42 |
| hattrick | usermod: user 1002 does not exist | 19:42 |
| AlexC_ | ... | 19:43 |
| hattrick | anyone using munin? | 19:43 |
| blue-frog | AlexC_: what is quota saying? | 19:48 |
| AlexC_ | blue-frog, Disk quotas for user root (uid 0): none | 19:49 |
| AlexC_ | blue-frog, this is on a VPS, I have contacted them and they are looking into the issue. I just thought I'd ask here to see if I can help solve it | 19:49 |
| Deeps | AlexC_: any quotas for uid 1002 and/or gid 1002? | 20:10 |
| AlexC_ | /dev/simfs 51200* 51200 51200 5619 0 0 | 20:10 |
| Deeps | that'll be the problem then | 20:11 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | anyone here used anonftpsync? i was wondering if you'd customised it to only mirror selected releases | 20:11 |
| fromport | kamping_kaiser: i'm using anonsync. But it's all in the script itself, isn't it ? I'm basically mirroring only i386/amd64. | 20:15 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | fromport, my problem is i only want to mirror dapper+hardy, but it seems i can only filter out arches, not releases | 20:16 |
| * Kamping_Kaiser is trying to think of the best way to hack around it | 20:16 | |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i think i have one, but it'll be ugly :) | 20:17 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | fromport, i assume your mirroring all releases? | 20:18 |
| AlexC_ | hey, | 20:20 |
| AlexC_ | Deeps, sorry, lightning took out my router. Did you get my message? | 20:20 |
| Deeps | nope | 20:20 |
| AlexC_ | Deeps, I said that is only half the problem - why is it trying to change ownership to 1002? | 20:21 |
| Deeps | that'll be defined within the tar file | 20:21 |
| Deeps | and being root, it's able to do that | 20:21 |
| AlexC_ | wait, what? The tar file can specify what ownerships the files should have, if it can do? | 20:22 |
| Deeps | i believe so | 20:22 |
| AlexC_ | O_o | 20:23 |
| Deeps | there'll be a flag (archive i guess) to preserve ownership and permission settings | 20:23 |
| AlexC_ | ah | 20:23 |
| AlexC_ | ok, that makes sense - going to work with that now | 20:27 |
| fromport | kamping_kaiser: yes all releases: 125G /archive/pub/mirror/ubuntu/ | 20:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | fromport, ok. thanks for that :) | 20:29 |
| AlexC_ | Deeps, thank you so much, this was the cause. Applying the --no-same-owner flag worked great on the tar command | 20:37 |
| Deeps | :) | 20:37 |
| _ruben | Kamping_Kaiser: dunno about anonftpsync, but debmirror can filter on arch/release/pool/etc | 20:49 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | _ruben, thats what i've used so far, but i need all the extra dirs like /tools/ /doc/ etc for cd building | 20:50 |
| _ruben | ah | 20:50 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | so i'm going to try and leetly haxor (read: ugly hack) anonftpsync so it only downloads the releases i want | 20:51 |
| _ruben | ;) | 20:53 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ;) | 20:57 |
| AlexC_ | where would be the best place to put PHP 5.2.6 in? /usr/local/php-cgi and /usr/local/php-cli ? | 21:21 |
| mouser25 | Hello, Im looking at setting up an e-mail server to replace microsoft exchange and was wondering what my options where on keeping personal address books synced to the server? | 22:38 |
