[00:25] <a13x> summary of my problem: i am trying to install ubuntu server.  i run check CD for defects multiple times and every time it tells me some random file is corrupted (different files most of the time).

[00:25] <a13x> elp
[00:26] <ScottK2> Are you using the same burning software every time?
[00:26] <a13x> no
[00:26] <nxvl> mathiaz: i update the wu-ftpd debdiff, are this the changes you wanted? i'm kind of confused about the Vcs-* fields
[00:26] <a13x> k3b on my linux machine, cdburnerxp on windows vista
[00:26] <mathiaz> nxvl: yeah - I've asked around and changing the Vcs-* are not mandatory
[00:27] <mathiaz> nxvl: there was discussion about how to handle them, but no final decision has been taken
[00:27] <mathiaz> nxvl: so for now, I'd leave them as is (ie not change them).
[00:28] <a13x> i also tested memory which was fine
[00:30] <nxvl> mathiaz: i have already change them
[00:30] <nxvl> :S
[00:30]  * nxvl reverts the change & uploads
[00:32] <nxvl> mathiaz: done
[00:37] <mathiaz> nxvl: ok - sorry for the trouble - I'll have a look at your diff later

[00:38] <nxvl> i find it really usefull

[02:09] <a13x> I am trying to install ubuntu server.  I ran check CD for defects # of times and every time it tells me some random file is corrupted (different files most of the time).

[02:11] <slimjim8094> do a md5sum on the file (iso)
[02:19] <a13x> doing md5sum...
[02:20] <a13x> there something interesting which i didn't mention: i have a raid card that supposed to create a raid 1 out of two hard drives
[02:20] <a13x> and i have created it in its bios util
[02:20] <a13x> but ubuntu still shows 2 hard drives

[02:28] <soulc> is there a way to upgrade to 8.04 server using apt-get?  I did it on my desktop
[02:29] <a13x> not sure, it i am sure i will shoot myself very soon
[02:30] <a13x> it almost seems like there is a bug in ubuntu that makes it read corrupt files
[02:30] <a13x> random on-the-fly corruption

[04:07] <Jberg88> hello anyone still awake?
[04:08] <hads> Yes, it's the middle of the afternoon :)
[04:09] <Jberg88> ah great sorry about that... I need help installing mysql on my server
[04:09] <hads> `sudo aptitude install mysql-server` :)
[04:10] <Jberg88> everytime i run it sudo aptitude install mysql-server everything goes fine and then when it is time to start it up it [fail]
[04:10] <hads> Look in the log files, there's quite possibly an error there.
[04:11] <Jberg88> i dont know how to do that?
[04:12] <hads> Well traditionally logs are in /var/log
[04:13] <Jberg88> ok thanks
[04:13] <Jberg88> brb
[04:18] <ergyJB> looked into the mysql.err and mysql.log they are blank
[04:20] <ergyJB> hello?
[04:21] <ergyJB> sorry hads my name changed
[04:23] <hads> How about syslog
[04:23] <ergyJB> ok looking
[04:24] <ergyJB> I don't know what I am looking for in here
[04:25] <hads> Open a console session and run `tail -f /var/log/syslog`
[04:25] <ergyJB> done
[04:25] <hads> Then open another one and run sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[04:26] <hads> You should hopefully get some output in the syslog
[04:27] <ergyJB> yeah that worked
[04:27] <hads> Pastebin the output so we can take a look
[04:27] <hads> !pastebin

[04:56] <Jberg88> Oh i was started mysql
[04:56] <Jberg88> i was told to do it to see what was causing mysql to fail
[04:57] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, and how did you installed it?? after installation was that message showed?
[04:58] <Jberg88> it never finished installing there was some problem with mysql-server-5
[04:59] <Jberg88> after everytime i try to install it says there is an error processing and it stops
[05:04] <SeaPhor> i want to build a proxy caching server/firewall for internal network, but also be a proxy for authenticated wan ppl too, any help?
[05:04] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.0
[05:04] <RoAkSoAx> and install it again
[05:07] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: it failed :-(
[05:08] <jber1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/17799/
[05:08] <Jberg88> this is what happened^
[05:08] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, uninstallit again
[05:08] <RoAkSoAx> and show me your repos file

[05:19] <jber1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/17800/
[05:20] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: thank you for being so patient with me
[05:21] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, haha no prob, could you change us to it??
[05:21] <RoAkSoAx> in the repos?? instead of us.archive, change it to it.archive etc etc
[05:22] <Jberg88> ok
[05:22] <Jberg88> done
[05:23] <SeaPhor> i was sent here from #ubuntu by Flannel because i asked a server based question, if no one here can answer the question i asked, where do i go? or should i be more patient?
[05:25] <Jberg88> SeaPhor: this is the place to be for server questions but it doesn't seem like there are enough helpers here
[05:26] <SeaPhor> Jberg88, then i will learn more and offer he;p where i can, thank you for the reply
[05:26] <SeaPhor> *help
[05:27] <Jberg88> SeaPhor: no problem man.
[05:28] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sudo apt-get update and try to install mysql againg
[05:29] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: you might want to check out squid for the proxy and iptables for the firewall
[05:29] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: what kind of authentication do you have on the wan currently
[05:31] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/squid.html that might be helpful for squid
[05:31] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: it failed yet again :-(
[05:31] <SeaPhor> well thats what i'm looking at,, seems i only know how to protect the local and deny the wan, but if its a wan connection as a proxy,,, cant wrap my head around both at same time?
[05:31] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/firewall-configuration.html
[05:32] <specialKevin> that might help with the firewall
[05:34] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, could you show me please?
[05:34] <SeaPhor> i know how to set up for a local, had 350 boxes to go thru 1 machine,,, but then to allow any from wan (non local) that would have to be ,,, well different, almost a vpn?
[05:36] <jber1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/17804/
[05:36] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.0 then: sudo apt-get autoremove and then sudo apt-get autoclean
[05:37] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, also try sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop just in case... and then install it again.. and it should download mysql again and not install it from the cache
[05:37] <Jberg88> ok
[05:37] <Jberg88> I already started on the first
[05:42] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: I think I might have to do a fresh install again. it didn't work
[05:42] <jber1> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:42] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, could you show the complete log please?
[05:44] <jber1> RoAkSoAx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17805/
[05:46] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, ok frist, sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.0 then,sudo apt-get autoremove, then: sudo apt-get autoclean then verify that /var/cache/apt/archives is clean... if not erase all the .debs from there... and then install it again.. the thing is that apt-get should download mysql-server again instead of installing it from the cache
[05:47] <Jberg88> oh ok
[05:52] <Jberg88> woah var/cache/apt/archives is full! delete everything, i tried rm *.deb but they didn't work
[05:52] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sudo rm *.deb
[05:52] <Jberg88> oh ok thanks that's done
[05:53] <RoAkSoAx> ok now try installing mysql-server-5.0 again
[05:53] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: yea a VPN would probably be your best bet
[05:54] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, it should download it again now
[05:54] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: yeah it is I am putting in the password for mysql
[05:55] <Jberg88> it is continuing now
[05:55] <SeaPhor> can that connect to a proxy caching server /firewall ?if si,,, the acl's would have to be ,,, tough?
[05:56] <specialKevin> SeaPhor: not sure, I haven't setup a proxy or anything like that before
[05:56] <SeaPhor> specialKevin, can that connect to a proxy caching server /firewall ?if si,,, the acl's would have to be ,,, tough?
[05:56] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: :-( it is not working at all
[05:56] <Jberg88> same error as before
[05:57] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, can you show it to me again
[05:57] <Jberg88> yes
[05:59] <SeaPhor> specialKevin, ok, well at least thank you for the response,,, i have built internal proxy cache server/firewalls, and have heard of proxy ip servers, but never heard of how to combine the 2
[05:59] <jber1> RoAkSoAx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17807/
[06:03] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, try invoke.rc-d mysql-server
[06:03] <Jberg88> don't know how to do that
[06:04] <Jberg88> that command by itself did not work
[06:06] <RoAkSoAx> sudo invoke-rc.d --force mysql-server
[06:08] <Jberg88> nope
[06:08] <Jberg88> syntax error
[06:08] <Jberg88> and his gone
[06:11] <Jberg88> hi RoAkSoAx, there was a syntax error

[06:14] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sudo invoke-rc.d --force mysql start then :P
[06:14] <Jberg88> yeah sorry i figured that a little too late
[06:15] <jber1> invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed
[06:18] <Jberg88> if there is nothing else you can think of I'll just do a complete reinstall tomorrow
[06:23] <RoAkSoAx> Jberg88, sorry i wasn't able to help ya
[06:25] <Jberg88> RoAkSoAx: you helped me a lot! thank you
[06:25] <Jberg88> I am going to sleep now I spent a lot of time on these computers good night :-p

[09:21] <AnRkey> why would my 8.04 server take nearly a minute to authenticate my password when i login?
[09:27] <InsomniaCity> AnRkey: I had that on a fedora box with a dying hard drive, there was a bad sector where auth.log was being stored
[09:29] <InsomniaCity> (so the login was successful, but it didn't run my shell until it finished writing the log entry, which meaned waiting for the drive to timeout)
[09:32] <AnRkey> crap it's my ebox trying to integrate ldap
[09:32] <AnRkey> it eventually authenticates from the unix account
[09:32] <AnRkey> InsomniaCity, i have had some strange hdd problems before too
[09:33] <AnRkey> about three months ago i had a server that was making me lose hair
[09:33] <AnRkey> it turned out that the one drive had a fault and only the seagate tools would show it

[13:57] <XpoMa> hi. When I type df -a it tells me df: `none`: No such file or directory. Any thoughts on this one plaesE?
[16:31] <dstagg> Question Please: I have modified the control-alt-delete file to prevent that and it logs to syslog but it doesn't display the message to the console. How do I make that happen?

[18:14] <lamont> ScottK: I'm looking at debian bug 311812 and wondering if I care enough anymore...  if I just stop chrooting postfix by default, then I can close that bug...
[18:14] <uvirtbot> Debian bug 311812 in postfix "postfix: syslog reconnection" [Grave,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/311812
[18:14] <lamont> and ubuntu we can fix the syslog daemon, and postfix can stay chrooted
[18:15] <lamont> thoughts?
[18:16] <lamont> now that's just funny
[18:16] <lamont> ScottK-laptop: you have scrollback there, or shall I paste you the last 4 lines before you joined?
[18:17] <ScottK-laptop> Please paste it.
[18:17] <ScottK-laptop> Scrollback is at home and I'm not.
[18:17] <lamont> ScottK-laptop: and here is fine for the continuing discussion
[18:17] <ScottK-laptop> Thanks.
[18:18] <ScottK-laptop> There's always file a serious bug on syslog for not providing the right API and make that bug block yours.
[18:18] <lamont> given that debian isn't going to fix syslog to do what I need for the postfix fix, I'm inclined to just make that a slightly larger ubuntu-fork
[18:19] <ScottK-laptop> That or play chicken and dare them to remove it from Testing.
[18:20] <ScottK-laptop> You could unchroot it in Debian and then I could file a grave bug about security regression from Etch?
[18:20] <lamont> that'd be debian bug 462739
[18:20] <uvirtbot> Debian bug 462739 in inetutils-syslogd "postfix: syslog reconnection" [Grave,Fixed] http://bugs.debian.org/462739
[18:21] <lamont> heh.  which is closed
[18:22] <lamont> OTOH, syslogd comes from sysklogd on my system
[18:23] <lamont> ScottK-laptop: yeah, that was my thinking (regression from etch)
[18:23] <ScottK-laptop> There was some discussion about switching the default syslog for Lenny.
[18:23] <lamont> I'll fix postfix to deliver the hook file, and then file a bug against sysklogd for not doing things right.
[18:23] <ScottK-laptop> I don't recall how it came out
[18:23] <lamont> (for the new definition of "right" :)
[18:24] <ScottK-laptop> lamont: Sounds like a plan.
[18:24] <lamont> ok.  plan for the evening is complete. :)
[18:25] <lamont> any other postfix bugs you want to see dead in lenny?  the current 2.5.2-2 upload is nothing but debconf translations atm
[18:25] <ScottK-laptop> So I just spent 5 hours driving to Pittsburgh, PA to deliver my wifew and 3 daughters to a baby shower with the promise of no men allowed, go have fun while we're there.
[18:25] <lamont> lol
[18:26] <lamont> feel free to dump here or /query for several hours - I'll poke you when I get permission to be online again.
[18:26] <ScottK-laptop> I'm just getting settled in with my free WiFi at Panera Bread when I get a call that there's a separate party for the men that I have to go to.
[18:26] <ScottK-laptop> Ugh.
[18:26] <lamont> LOL
[18:26] <ScottK-laptop> I should be back home before I get online again.
[18:26] <lamont> "have to" is a bit of a strong term..
[18:26] <ScottK-laptop> Yes, but only a bit.
[18:27] <lamont> and what if any choice have we made about sysklogd vs inetutils-syslog for intrepid, I wonder?
[18:27] <lamont> and afk.  enjoy the party
[18:27] <ScottK-laptop> I doubt we've thought about it.
