[05:58] greggman: Why do you care? What problem are you trying to solve? [05:58] ScottK, since I'm using the box for wifi gator..so I need it to change to eth0 [06:01] ScottK, how would I change it? any idea? [06:02] What I would do is run grep -r eth2 * in /etc and see where that's used. Carefully consider making changes. It'll be quite easy to end up with no networking at all. Also figure out what's using eth0 now.

I don't understand why I get different values in Windows explorer and with "find * -type f | du --apparent-size -b -c" for the same folder and it does not contain any hidden files.

[17:55] smultron: www-data [17:55] sommer: thanks [17:55] np [17:56] just curious, is there a file that says that somewhere? wondering how to figure that out on other systems, too [17:57] probably /etc/init.d/apache2 [17:57] but doing ps -ef | grep apache will show you as well [17:57] ah, thanks [18:10] nijaba: is there a reason why the default suite selected in vmbuilder is hardy? [18:10] nijaba: I'd expect it to be intrepid for the version in intrepid [18:12] mathiaz: hmm, good question. not that I know of. Maybe soren preferred to do an LTS by default? [18:12] mathiaz: if you feel it should be changed, I can do that in a snap [18:13] nijaba: well - I think it makes sense to install intrepid by default for intrepid [18:14] mathiaz: allright, on my way [18:14] nijaba: it's a change in the distro plugin [18:14] mathiaz: I know, in the set_defaults [18:15] mathiaz: actually in register_settings [18:16] nijaba: group.add_option('--suite', default='hardy', [18:16] mathiaz: already done [18:17] mathiaz: and pushed [18:17] * mathiaz pulls [18:20] is the default vmbuilder in intrepid the one in bash or python? [18:21] yann2: python [18:21] nice :) [18:33] how do I install and/or enable SSL in hardy (or python maybe?) I'm getting 'unknown url type: https' errors in zope/plone [18:36] nijaba: hmmm. not good. The image created by vmbuilder with an intrepid suite doesn't boot [18:36] nijaba: it seems that the kernel is not found at boot. [18:37] nijaba: a hardy image works though. [18:39] mathiaz: hmmm... doing the test.... [18:43] mathiaz: I'll work on this after returning from dinner. [18:55] nijaba: it seems that the dest argument isn't supported in the configuration file.

[19:58] i'm not running the 64-bit OS [19:58] its only showing 3GB but I know I can enable PAE or something like that in the kernel [19:58] but not sure how [19:58] install the server kernel should do it [20:04] Anyone using "dfree command" in Samba config under hardy to change the reporting of free space? [20:06] nijaba: it may be related to the grub changes outlined in this email: http://www.nabble.com/GRUB-now-supports-specifying-the-root-by-UUID.-Please-help-test.-td19987017.html [20:07] with proftpd, is it possible to instead of using the user as owner let files they upload be owned by www-data? [20:10] mathiaz: yep, looks like there is now an additional uuid line that we do not update. easy fix. Thanks for the pointer [20:16] mathiaz: fix done, now testing. Have you opened a bug? [20:16] nijaba: nope [20:16] mathiaz: np, I'll do it [20:16] nijaba: why? [20:16] mathiaz: just for tracking purposes, thought it would be a good idea, am I wrong? [20:17] nijaba: well - IMO it's just unecessary overhead [20:17] nijaba: we're not tracking *every* bug we fix in LP [20:17] mathiaz: ok, I'll skip that then [20:17] nijaba: as long as the change/fix is documented in the changelog entry that's ok IMO [20:18] mathiaz: fine, you are way ahead of me on this type of process [20:19] nijaba: so instead of filing a bug report for a bug you've just fixed, you could work on figuring out why dest isn't support in the configuration file :D [20:20] mathiaz: I m on it too [20:40] hi all [20:40] people, why this "01 00 * * * root /etc/scripts/clock/shour.sh" not works in crontab? If I execute in shell /etc/scripts/clock/shour.sh works. why ? [20:42] J_P: did you wait until one minute after midnight? [20:42] greenfly: sure! [20:42] I wait 10 minutes [20:43] and nothing :-( [20:43] and you intend this script to run only once per day at 00:01 ? [20:44] also, did you get any interesting error messages sent to your root email account, or alternatively, anything intersting in /var/log/ ? [20:44] greenfly: ahh sorry, what is woring.. I need that that run each minute.. [20:45] you want that script to run every minute? [20:46] greenfly: yes [20:46] then you need the line to read: [20:46] * * * * * root /etc/scripts/clock/shour.sh [20:46] the way your cron entry was set up, the script would only run once a day at 00:01 [20:47] if it still doesn't work, make sure that /etc/scripts/clock/shour.sh is executable [20:47] ok, I will change that [20:53] mathiaz: my grub fix did not work. It seems that update-grub pushes a modifcation later on. As I did not write this part, it may take a while for me to understand the full process... [20:54] nijaba: you may wanna ask kirkland for some helkp [20:54] nijaba: he worked on grub-install lately [20:55] mathiaz: I think I should leave kirkland alone for a bit, as he is knee deep in ecryptfs [20:55] nijaba: i'm getting the counter right [20:55] nijaba: but i'm happy to help with grub after [20:55] kirkland: that's a very good news [20:55] nijaba: post your questions here and i'll answer when i can [20:55] nijaba: well - of all the bug I've found this is probably the most important [20:56] nijaba: as of know, vmbuilder doesn't produce a functionning intrepid vm [20:56] kirkland: sure. I'll try to move forward in the mean time. [20:58] mathiaz: agreed. simple work around would be for me to update the menu.lst at the very end, but I am unsure this would be proper. [20:58] nijaba: does the partition plugin/code generate UUID? [20:59] nijaba: I mean generate a UUID for the block devices that are created? [20:59] mathiaz: nope. we set groot as (hd0,0) but it is modified by ??? later on in the process, and this is what I am trying to figure out [20:59] I'm trying to share a printer, via samba.

[21:23] mathiaz: am I glad you are doing some real testing [21:24] nijaba: ok - so now dapper and gutsy fail to load with a grub error 2 [21:24] acemo: you could try using umask: http://www.tech-faq.com/umask.shtml [21:24] nijaba: that means: Selected disk doesn't exist" [21:25] nijaba: http://www.uruk.org/orig-grub/errors.html [21:25] sommer: great thanks! [21:25] np [21:26] nijaba: what was the issue with intrepid? [21:27] mathiaz: we were setting groot (hd0,0) but update-grub was trying to be smart and was trying to guess the UUID from a loop device. a mess [21:28] mathiaz: fix pushed to trunk if you want to look [21:28] * mathiaz pulls [21:28] * nijaba take a brief pause before looking at error 2 [21:31] nijaba: could you be more explicit in your changelog entries? [21:31] nijaba: intrepid guest now boot -> explain why that has been done (mention UUID) [21:35] mathiaz: oui prof [21:37] mathiaz: would "intrepid needs groot=uuid, else update-grub tries to outsmart us later on [21:37] and it wont boot." be proper? [21:37] nijaba: ok [21:38] Hi guys. Can anyone help me out with an Ubuntu-Server 8.04 installation? It's about aptitude/apt-get. I've managed to install a minimal system and try to update the backages. I am getting Segfault when procps installs and dpkg exits with exit status 139 and the package remains unconfigured... [21:38] nijaba: but this may be a bug in grub though. [21:38] nijaba: it seems that update-grub doesn't handle loopback device correctly. [21:39] mathiaz: well, would grub be tested for loopback device? [21:39] nijaba: apparently not [21:39] nijaba: I don't actually know [21:39] mathiaz: I certainly would not expect it to [21:40] nijaba: well - here is a valid use case [21:40] nijaba: so this may need to be fixed in grub [21:40] nijaba: I'm sure kirkland would love to investigate that issue [21:41] mathiaz: once he is done fixing other urgent issues, I am sure he would [21:42] on with your error #2 now [21:44] nijaba: great - intrepid boots now :D [21:44] mathiaz: glad you can confirm it :) [21:46] * nijaba grumbles: his cache did not include dapper, so I am downloading every package.... [21:55] I am getting Segfault, when I try to configure some allready installed packages with dpkg on a fresh install of the ubuntu-server 8.04. It concerns random packages like procps and screen. These packages just stay unconfigured... Does anyone have some Ideas about this? [21:56] now also apache won't install because of segfaults on the configure stage. Another packages are installed without problems. [21:57] I have googled about that problem, but nobody seem to have a solution and all forums questions are unsolved :-( [22:04] nijaba: I don't understant what is the FS image setup [22:04] nijaba: when is that used? [22:04] mathiaz: for Xen [22:04] mathiaz: xen wants one file per partition, not per disk.... really weird stuff [22:10] madyogi: what I do not understand is that procps being part of the ubuntu-minimal seed, you should not have to install it afterward. How did you install your "minimal" system? [22:13] nijaba: yes, I've installed my system twice allready. Becaus first time I thought, that it's just some installation bug [22:13] nijaba: and procps was installed and configured from the begonning [22:14] nijaba: when I tried to uptade-upgrade the packages, procps configuration threw a segfault [22:14] madyogi: if you get random segfault you may wanna check your memory [22:14] nijaba: then I tried to degrade the package back and I've had the same result [22:15] mathiaz: ok. I'll try it right away... [22:15] mathiaz: but the packages I am getting segfault are always the same. [22:16] mathiaz: solved one pb for dapper, but there seem to be another one [22:20] mathiaz: did you test edgy? [22:23] yes [22:24] mathiaz: oh. no, sorry. I've tested etch [22:24] but that's not ubuntu... [22:24] :-) [22:26] nijaba: nope - edgy is not longer supported [22:27] nijaba: I haven't tested feisty either [22:27] nijaba: as it won't be supported when intrepid is released :) [22:27] ah. I've forgot the main part I suppose. This ubuntu is running on a Xen as domU [22:27] and dom0 is debian etch [22:28] and now while I've started to test memory ssh threw me out. Have to talk to our sysadmin tomorrow I think :-) I can't get it back any more...

Anyway thanx for help. I'll let you know if I've found out something [22:52] what's a simple way to make a backup of a server that allows for bare metal restore, and also allows use of the system during the backup? for my windows desktop i used to acronis... [22:55] nxmehta: backups are never simple, but I would combine a disk image (done once, cold) and bacula... [23:04] nxmehta: backuppc is simpler than most others. [23:05] nxmehta: i'd also recommend rdiff-backup [23:09] nijaba: I've pushed a branch to fix the templates option: lp:~mathiaz/vmbuilder/fix-templates-option [23:14] mathiaz: ok, great.
