uvirtbotNew bug: #307437 in mysql-dfsg-5.0 (main) "mysql has to autostart later" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/30743700:32
xp_prgoh cool, hi everyone, I just installed 8.04 on my virtual host, want to upgrade to 8.10 but not clear how to do that using only command line, can anyone assist?02:09
xp_prghi anyone here?02:10
xp_prgI want to user ubuntu server02:10
xp_prguser = use02:11
ScottK-laptopxp_prg: sudo do-release-upgrade02:20
xp_prgdo-release-upgrade02:21
xp_prgChecking for a new ubuntu release02:21
xp_prgNo new release found02:21
xp_prgshould that happen ScottK-laptop?02:21
ScottK-laptopThere's a flag you need to use.  Let me look (this is because 8.04 is LTS).  Hang on.02:22
xp_prgok many thanks02:22
xp_prgis it:  do-release-upgrade -d02:22
xp_prg?02:22
ScottK-laptopI think so.02:23
ScottK-laptopWorst case it won't find anything either.02:24
hadsYeah -d02:25
zoopsterdid you already apt-get install update-manager-core?02:25
xp_prgya just did that02:25
xp_prgthat will bring me up to 8.10 right?02:25
ScottK-laptopShould.02:25
hadsYeah02:25
xp_prgnice! what are the benefits of 8.10 compared to 8.04?02:25
hadsSome things02:25
hadsDepends what services you use etc.02:26
xp_prgwell I am hoping to make this a django/postgres type server02:26
hadsNot a lot of difference then I'd say.02:26
ScottK-laptop8.10 has django 1.0 for starters then.02:26
hadsUnless you use django from packages I guess, heh.02:27
* hads doesn't use django02:27
xp_prgI guess everyone loves php02:27
ScottK-laptopNow that it's 1.0 that's a pretty reasonable thing to do.02:27
hadsScottK-laptop: True02:27
* ScottK-laptop wouldn't touch php with a 10 foot pole.02:27
hadsxp_prg: I wouldn't guess that02:27
xp_prgwhat do you like Scott?02:27
xp_prgjsp?02:27
* ScottK-laptop is more of a mail server guy than a web server guy, so I tend to hand write python scripts when I need non-static web stuff.02:28
ScottK-laptopBut I'd do Perl before I'd do PHP.02:28
hadsI do websites in Python, not django though.02:28
xp_prgwhat do you use hads?02:29
ScottK-laptopI know a number of people who really like Pylons.02:29
ScottK-laptopI haven't tried it myself.02:29
ScottKI'm also experimenting with different IRC clients right now.02:30
hadsI use Werkzeug/Jinja/SQLAlchemy mostly.02:30
xp_prgI wish perl had a good backend, only thing you can use is like catalyst but that is not very turnkey02:30
xp_prgif I do the do-release command and disconnect from the terminal does it stop running?02:34
hadsOf course, unless you're running in screen.02:41
xp_prgwell if I exit in the middle can it restart ok or not?02:45
xp_prganyone know the answer to that, I need to know please02:53
zoopsterxp_prg: not a good idea, you may be left with a non-functional system depending on where it is left02:54
xp_prgoops ok02:54
hadsPatience is a virtue02:55
ScottKIf you run do-release-upgrade via ssh it'll start a second instance of ssh you can connect to02:55
ScottKIt's not recommended, but I've never had a problem with it.02:55
hadsAnd print several warnings telling you all about it.02:55
ScottKYes.02:55
xp_prgyes I ran it via ssh02:55
ScottKIt's not clear to me how else one is supposed to do a remote upgrade.02:55
hadsYeah, I do it too.02:55
hadsIn screen of course02:56
xp_prgso it is ok to disconnect if it I did that way?02:56
xp_prgScottK ?02:57
ScottKI suppose.02:58
* xp_prg wishes he would have used screen02:58
ScottKI actually don't generally bother with that as my ssh connections are very reliable.02:58
* hads has dodgy NZ ADSL02:59
xp_prgwow the upgrade is done!03:00
zoopstermy upgrade went quick as well, but then again I don't have much on it!03:02
alex_21I want to set up my own equivilant to dyndns for my users. I run a service where people can use hard drive space on their home hdd to store stuff and access it via username.vipbc.org instead of ipaddress. How to do this, is what I am after03:52

axisys_is there a pkg for lustre filesystem?06:29
KapliHey, I've used apt-get install eggdrop to install the eggdrop bot but i cant find out where it was installed11:12

Kaplithanks11:20
stefgHi, i'm about to set up a backup server and find contradicting info about wether a mdadm raid 1 takes advantage of the combined read speed of the participating disk. The mdadm wiki says yes, some benchmarkers say no... any mdadm expert in here who can shed light on this?12:22
Kamping_Kaiserits supposed to, wether you see a noticeable difference on the other hand ... (note, not an expert on mdadm)12:23
stefgHmm... my problem is that it the server needs to be a drop in replacemant for the actual file server in case of failure. As you can imagine the budget only paid a backup machine whose I/O performance will get my users angry, should the actual server ever fail ... so if raid 1 does not increase read speeds over a single disk i might beg for some more disks to setup a raid 10 instead12:29
_rubentoo many factors involved, run benchmarks to make sure, also depends on the type of workload and everything .. tho the global rule of thumb is that raid1 has better read performance over single disk12:35
_rubenraid10 gives even more read performance, and also increased write performance12:35
stefgYeah, i was hoping to get around of doing benchmarking myself... workload is just files erving (samba) in a 30 user network. but as all users have all their files on the samba server it's quite busy12:39

refnumzxi am getting the following error in the kernel log from my ubuntu 8.10 server [236776.421342] console-kit-dae[9983]: segfault at 1a0 ip 00007fa54526ee09 sp 000000004091d090 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.1800.2[7fa545242000+c3000]15:30
refnumzxany advice on how to stop this error? or what is causing this?15:31
refnumzxgoogle doesn't help15:31
ScottK-laptoprefnumzx: That's related to the consolekit package, which isn't normallly a part of Ubuntu Server installs.15:36
refnumzxi did not install it on my own the only packages i select during install was the virtualization package and openssh-server. can i remove this package with out harm, and if so what is the package name?15:38
ScottK-laptopconsolekit is the package name.  You can try to remove it and see what else is removed too (it'll ask for confirmation).  If you don't care about the other stuff it wants to remove, then go ahead.15:39
refnumzxconsolekit is the name.15:39
refnumzxuhh dbus and dbus-x1115:40
refnumzxdo you know wha they do?15:40
ScottK-laptopThose are things consolekit needs, not things that need consolekit, so if that's it, it's safe to remove.15:41
refnumzxah right, thanks man appreciate it15:41
ScottK-laptopDbus is more commonly found in desktop installations.15:41
ScottK-laptophttp://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus15:42
refnumzxwhy would it install for this server? strange.15:42
refnumzxi tried to be minimal when it comes to this instal as i am going to be using it for virtual machines15:42
refnumzxusing the kvm builder that ships with this version15:42
ScottK-laptopDunno.  I checked and I don't have it installed in my Intrepid server, but it was also an upgrade from Hardy, so it's possible a new install would bring in more packages.15:43
refnumzxah. ok15:43
refnumzxare you sing VM on your server? if so, do you use the built in ubuntu tools? do you like them? how is network performance? any problems with USB storage?15:49
ScottK-laptopI've experimented a bit, but not really and not recently, so i don't have much to offer.15:50
ScottK-laptopI know that Ubuntu is putting a lot of effort into it, so I'd expect the supported tools to work reasonably well.15:51
refnumzxyeah, i would as well.  how do you use your server?  i mostly use my servers for file storage over samba/nfs, mail and other database tasks so i think virtualizing will be a good approach?15:52
ScottK-laptopSorry, need to run off ....15:54
refnumzxseeya15:54
Miscc hello is there some program or script to allow only some countries make connection into my server and prevent other countries from connecting to my server in deffirent ports ??16:15
lianimatorhow do I make a local server accessible from the outside (e.g. Internet)?16:28
lianimatorI have installed apache server on Ubuntu. it's works locally. I am behind a router.16:29
lianimatorso if I access my external IP, the it goes to my router config page by default.. what do I do from here?16:30
lianimatorI tried adding port 8080 to NameVirtualHost and Listen in the file etc/apache2/ports.conf16:31
lianimatorbut when I restart apache, it says NameVirtualHost takes one argument.. I'm trying to adapt http://www.groovypost.com/howto/apache/configure-apache-web-site-to-use-multiple-ports/ to Ubuntu16:31
Miscc hello is there some program or script to allow only some countries make connection into my server and prevent other countries from connecting to my server in deffirent ports ??16:39
lianimatorMiscc: what do you mean by different ports?16:53
Miscclianimator : all public ports like 22 80 21 ...17:15
Crystalliblaae ! :S18:28
Crystalli+tnc18:28
ChipzzMiscc: for apache, you can try geoip18:40
Chipzzbut that doesn't work for arbitrary ports18:41
* Chipzz is having some troubles with the crap called UUID18:41
Chipzzfindfs only finds my root partition, not the other partitions18:42
ChipzzI'm thinking it's because some symlinks (/dev/md-*) are not created18:42
Chipzzwhat would be responsible for that? udev I suppose?18:43
Hawkeyhi, im looking for some mysql diagnostic tool for ubuntu, can someone give me some tip?19:05
jmarsdenHawkey: mysqladmin?  Be more specific -- what is the problem you are having?19:06
Hawkeyhi loads19:07
Hawkeyhigh loads ...19:07
jmarsdenSo you think there is a specific query causing this?  You can turn on query logging and see what is happening that way... is that the kind of thing you are looking for?19:08
Hawkeyor back forget.. some utility which shows me  why are my cores on 100%.. for example i have own program and it loads 100% of one core.. so.. is there some utility to check where could be some mistake?.. some kind like valgrind if you now19:09
jmarsdenSounds like this is not a MySQL issue, but a basic "my prorgam is looping" issue... what language is your program written in?19:11
Hawkeyjmarsden : i wrote forget;) written in c++19:13
jmarsdenSo why not use whatever debugger you normally use for C++ programs (gdb or watever) to debug this one?19:14
Hawkeywell.. good point :DD19:16
jmarsdenYou could try gprof if you ened a profiler, but I think a normal debugger might be the first thing to try.19:16
jmarsdens/ened/need/19:16
maswanHawkey: oprofile takes a system view on what's taking up time. systemtap if you need to do more in-depth instrumentation in the kernel etc.19:24
Hawkeythanx19:24
