[01:49] how can i get the info about packages and cpu temperature [01:54] i mean the info that appears when a user logs in for the first time [01:59] can i get that info by issuing a command in the console? [02:00] hello??? [02:01] helloooooo! (everybody got the rage virus so nobody answers) [02:33] hi [02:33] my roundcube-webmail got hosed when trying to upgrade [02:34] something is wrong with the mysql database, it needs to be upgraded i think [02:35] if only i can figure out how to start the upgrade process agian for roundcube [02:36] sounds like a roundcube question then ... [02:36] i guess [02:36] giovani: how do i start the update process with apt(itude) again? [02:37] what update process? [02:37] when i began to update roundcube, it asked me a series of questions what to do about the database configuration. i want to go back to that so i can try it again [02:38] was this in a web browser, or in the dpkg configuration? [02:38] dpkg configuration [02:38] it was a ncurses type of dialog [02:38] dpkg-reconfigure [02:38] nothing happens when i do dpkg-reconfigure roundcube [02:39] the package is roundcube-core or something, right? [02:39] ah yeah [02:39] roundcube-core [02:40] Hi, all, [02:41] I would like to scan my network since the ip of one of my servers changed after a router upgrade and I can't find it. I have NMAP, but I don't remember how to can 192.168.0.0/24 [02:41] Can someone help me? [02:41] Please [02:41] read the nmap manpage [02:42] it's very well-documented [02:43] I am having a hard time reading it [02:43] why? [02:44] I can only read small chunks of man pages because of my screen reader [02:45] page down [02:45] Nope [02:45] then fix your screen reader [02:45] or use google [02:45] to find an online copy of the manpage [02:45] ubuntu has a website for manpages [02:46] There is nothing wrong with my SR [02:46] there is if you can't page down [02:46] I was asking a simple question as I struggle through the Man page [02:46] I'm in favor of you finding the very well-documented answer, rather than handing it to you [02:46] No, there isn't. I can page down, but the way things work, I can't read what is in between pages [02:47] It is quite unusual behavior :( [02:47] use the up and down arrows to move one line at a time [02:49] It hits invisible barriers [02:49] It is a well-known but in Terminal [02:49] this is not normal behavior [02:49] anyway [02:50] I've said that you can find manpages on the web [02:50] ubuntu has a website for them [02:50] I am reading a hotow on it as we speak [02:50] Howto on it, ... Sorry [02:50] Also, it is usual behavior [02:51] It just is not ideal behavior [02:51] no, the default manpage reader doesn't hit "invisible barriers" [02:51] that's not normal behavior [02:52] With a screen reader it does [02:52] nope [02:52] It has as far back as I can remember on [02:53] I have used a screen reader for years. I think I know when I find a bug and it is reproducable accross machines [02:55] Unless you think differently, I am sure this is a bug [02:56] well there's no way to really prove this, or troubleshoot it -- did you find the manpage online? [02:56] I should call up software dev team staff on Monday and rereport it [02:56] I did not look. I found a nice walk-through though [02:56] So I am on my way [02:57] I realized my server isn't connected to the network even [02:57] It seems anyways [02:57] I'll bee back. [02:58] I'm going to go to the rack and fix it. [02:58] Thanks for your help [02:58] Good night [03:59] anyone have a package or something to show temp and other stats on a web page? [04:00] Hi [04:01] On my Ubuntu installation I cannot resolve anything without editing my hosts file :S I'll type ping google.com won't work unless I add that as an entry in my hosts file. [04:01] Hi, I need some help in trying to preserve my RAID moving from SuSE 10.3 -> Ubuntu 9.04. [04:01] Has anyone any ideas about this issue? [04:01] Do I need anything besides the UUID and disk mappings? [04:01] I am using the md driver. [04:02] Hasbro: you probably don't have DHCP set up correctly. [04:02] Any guides? [04:02] Hasbro: your DNS isn't configured or working properly, obviously [04:03] giovani, I use my provider's nameservers [04:03] which are? [04:03] • ns1.limestonenetworks.com [04:03] • ns2.limestonenetworks.com [04:03] Hasbro: what is in /etc/resolv.conf? [04:03] search arcemu.info [04:03] nameserver 209.130.152.7 [04:04] Hasbro: those dns servers aren't returning records for the internet [04:04] How can we check? [04:04] and you are not specifying them in /etc/resolv.conf [04:04] i just did check [04:04] what makes you think you're using ns1 and ns2.limestonenetworks.com? [04:04] I set the domains to them [04:04] lol [04:04] uh [04:04] I think you may be confused how DNS works [04:04] Yes, wasn't thinking [04:05] wait so question [04:05] I did not edit [04:05] this [04:05] there's a huge difference between authoritative DNS and internet resolvers [04:05] and it was set to 209.130.152.7 [04:05] which if you go it in a browser, brings up a page [04:05] ns.limestonenetworks.com is 74.63.208.2 [04:05] Clackamas: ignore that -- he's confusing his authoritative DNS for his domain with resolvers [04:05] what's ubuntu's default nameserver set to? [04:05] sorry [04:05] Hasbro: it's not set -- that perobably came from your DNS at cologuys [04:05] what resolver [04:05] err [04:05] DHCP [04:06] or cologuys configured it for you [04:06] nah [04:06] well someone configured the box [04:06] I run Ubuntu in a vm on windows [04:06] haha [04:06] giovani I will let you drive. [04:06] It doesn't set to anything by default? [04:06] Hasbro: no, of course not [04:06] that's up to you to configure [04:06] so if I leave it blank, what will happen? [04:06] you won't be able to resolve domains [04:06] giovani, so question [04:07] since I run it in a vm on windows, can I just get what ever my windows one [04:07] is set to? [04:07] yes ... but you'd have to configure your vm software properly [04:07] also, might I ask what the search line is for? [04:07] search arcemu.info [04:07] to either pass that ... or find the information in the windows host, and copy it [04:07] in resolve.conf [04:07] it's for automatically appending that domain on non-FQDN names you attempt to resolve [04:07] i.e. ping foo [04:07] will search DNS for foo.arcemu.info [04:07] oh [04:08] so ping google.com [04:08] is searching forr google.com.arcemu.info maybe? [04:08] no [04:08] hrm [04:08] google.com is a FQDN [04:08] your DNS is broken, obviously [04:08] could you check if 209.130.152.7 is a resolver? [04:08] maybe it's vmware's settings which are fubared [04:08] well it only has settings you give it [04:09] but no, 209.130.152.7 is not resolving domains for me [04:09] however [04:09] that's a cologuys IP [04:09] cologuys? [04:09] so it's possibly limited to the internal network [04:09] that's your IP space owner [04:09] whomever you rent a server from is either cologuys, or is a customer of cologuys [04:09] I see [04:09] but the thing is [04:09] this is a question for your provider [04:10] I haven't modified any of this, and it worked on friday morning [04:10] not #ubuntu-server [04:10] and then it stopped working [04:10] maybe their DNS server is broken now [04:10] hrm [04:10] once again, this is a question for your provider [04:10] I'll contact support, 1 moment [04:10] ubuntu is working perfectly [04:11] giovani, do you have a server I could use to resolve domains off of? [04:11] no [04:11] what is yours set to then? [04:11] they're set to opendns [04:11] by way of a caching resolver [04:11] so are there free resolvers out there? [04:11] yes [04:12] which is open dns? === s_markow_ is now known as s_markow [05:13] giovani [05:13] could I setup my own dns server? [05:13] on the machine? [05:17] If NFS volume in /etc/fstab fails to mount. then will machine fail to boot? [05:19] giovani, nevermind found my own answer and a nice guide :) [05:19] cheers [05:20] Jomyoot was yours deleted or soemthing? [05:20] something* [05:20] no [05:20] just wondering in case [05:20] in case the NFS server is offline [05:21] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=355869 [05:21] check that out [05:21] because anything /etc/fstab has problem it seems to locks up machine [05:27] Hey there [05:29] I'm having some trouble setting up Ubuntu Server 9.04 LAMP on the network side of things [05:30] I have set port forwarding on 80 and 22 [05:30] and an online port scanner shows them as open [05:30] (and only them) [05:31] Also, web pages pull up fine on the internal IP [05:31] and same with SSH (works internally, external port is open, but still nothing) [06:01] okay, so even though tracerts can't make it to my global IP, my friend (outside of the network) was able to get to my site [06:01] and so was a proxy [06:02] so it looks like everyone outside of my network can get to me via my external IP [06:03] so my new question is, why won't it work from the inside? [06:03] but I'm happy, I suppose [11:44] Could someone tell me how(or point me in the right direction) to implement Event MPM on my server? [12:40] i am having problem while upgrading SQL server. http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/5562/ubuntu20090621163808.png [12:42] i am having problem while upgrading SQL server. http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/5562/ubuntu20090621163808.png [12:48] anirban: it looks like you are mixing up debian and ubuntu packages [12:50] pmatulis : Isn't ubuntu and debian packages same ? [12:52] Then how to upgrade SQL server to 5.1.34 in Ubuntu ? [12:54] anirban: no they're not the same [12:54] anirban: just upgrade your system in the normal way [12:54] $ sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude full-upgrade [12:55] pmatulis : But it is stuck in SQL server 5.0.67 in Ubuntu 9.04 server. Where the current release is 5.1.35 [12:55] first of all, it's not 'SQL server'. it's 'MySQL server' [12:57] anirban: i see 5.0.75 for jaunty [13:10] http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mysql-server&searchon=names&suite=jaunty§ion=all [13:11] anirban, universe already offers the mysql server version 5.1.31-1 [13:11] Hecate : But how to get that ? [13:12] enable universe and install the package [13:46] I have uninstalled the unsupported package and installed the universe package. Still it is showing error : http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5184/ubuntu20090621181240l.png [13:49] anirban, what happens when you invoke "invoke-rc.d mysql start"? [13:50] Hecate : Same error [13:50] any output? [13:51] Same error that was showing earlier. [13:51] except for the "fail"? [13:52] action start failed [13:53] i need sth to work with. any details in the syslog? [13:54] where to get the syslog ? Plz help [13:56] /var/log/messages [13:56] maybe there's sth in /var/log/mysql/ too- [13:58] There is something like denied_mask="::r" [13:59] Hecate : Can u hav an SSH access and look into the problem ? [13:59] maybe the current apparmor profile is not compatible with mysql-5.1, but that's just a guess [13:59] if you consider me trustworthy enough, i could. [14:00] Coming to private chat [14:29] I'm thinking about creating a Ubuntu Home Theater PC Server --- Preferably XBMC. What could you run on server that would benefit me (the home user) the most? [14:30] And on the side note, I'm fairly experienced with Ubuntu already. I want to dip my feet in the server / networking area more. :) [14:35] mobi-sheep: ubuntu-server has the same packages as the desktop version [14:35] so there's really little-to-no difference from a what-will-run perspective [14:38] giovani: I mean literally hooking it up to a HDMI television in living room so I would like to avoid the GUI. In a way, I'm saying that I want to set it up to run XBMC as a default session. I also looked at LIRC remote control. I only want to know what I could do that would benefit me or my local network. [14:39] well xbmc is a gui [14:39] and has to run on xorg [14:39] giovani: Few packages would be fine for starters. It'll give me something to look at. [14:40] I don't know what you're asking for though [14:40] Does that mean I have to install Ubuntu-desktop or will xorg be sufficient? [14:40] it means running xbmc on ubuntu-server might be a bit of a mess [14:40] giovani: I simply want to learn more about server packages. [14:40] it's most certainly possible [14:40] mobi-sheep: there are thousands [14:41] given that xbmc is a desktop-oriented application, it's not supported here [14:43] giovani: Heh. Alright. I'm copying system files for XBMC live to usb at the moment. Thanks for the small talk. I'll figure out what I'm trying to do. I think I'm trying to achieve a ultimate HTPC + Home Server type thingy. :) [14:59] hi [15:04] hi how do i change hostname on ubuntu server [15:05] <_ruben> find all files on the system that refer to the old name, change to new name, reboot :P [15:20] are there modprobe.conf setting on ubuntu server [15:20] ruben23, basically that would be /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts, but as _ruben said a 'grep -r "`hostname`" /etc' can't hurt [15:23] Hecate:ok, but how about modprobe.conf can i find that on ubuntu or what is the equivalent config for that on ubuntu [15:23] ruben23: ubuntu uses the modprobe.d structure [15:23] look at /etc/modprobe.d/ [15:29] giovani:its empty [15:29] right [15:29] is it normal [15:29] yes ... if you'd like to place something you would've placed in modprobe.conf, you do it there [15:30] im trying to find and load the module of Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105 [Rhine-III] (rev 8b) [15:30] i install it on the pci but not detected [15:30] by the ubuntu server machne [15:31] ok, and? [15:32] if theres module for via-rhine i might load it [15:32] understood [15:32] so load it [15:35] giovani:don know how [15:37] sudo modprobe via-rhine [15:39] giovani: i got it worked [15:39] thans [15:39] thanks [16:40] hi [16:40] if i have [16:40] or maybe not [16:40] 2 nics for my ubuntut server [16:41] i do the setting still on the /etc/network/interfaces [16:41] how would it be written [16:41] ruben23: "man interfaces" [16:42] ruben23, next time please write your question before posting it, check if for logical mistakes, for spelling mistakes. thx [16:42] it [16:44] metalfan___:ok [16:44] somehow my via epia-mII board starts the installation, but after i leave the first "gui" screen some kernel messages scroll by and then it says "Trying..." which results in a "signal out of range" message from my monitor? doesnt ubuntu server always start a console gui? [16:45] also F5/F6 seen to be not working, no menu pops up after pressing [16:50] <_gpg_> hello [16:57] <_gpg_> Hello [16:57] <_gpg_> i'm interested to use bazaar since few days, but stuck with some items [16:57] <_gpg_> The "Decentralized with automatic gatekeeper" is what i need with my team actually, i cant find any documentation about how to use/set PQM server [16:58] <_gpg_> anyone can help please [16:59] _gpg_: you're likely to get better help in the official bazaar channel: #bzr [17:00] <_gpg_> giovani, thank you [17:32] I need to virus-scan some .pdfs the occasional multimedia file and the occasional windows .exe. Can anyone get me up to speed with the recommended AV package? [17:36] durt: clamav [17:37] hi tried installing linux-headers but got this message http://pastebin.com/m763b37fb [17:38] ruben23: follow the instruction it gave you [17:39] yeah i did got this http://pastebin.com/m28594742 [17:40] you didn't write the package name correctly [17:40] please use some common sense before pasting these as if they're errors [17:41] O:-) [18:59] hello [18:59] i'm looking for some help with apache2 (securing it, ssl only, etc.) [19:04] giovani you here? [19:04] I updated my resolver if I didn't say so last night :) [19:33] Is there a recommended FTP daemon? or will anything do (proftp, vsftpd)? [19:40] anyone good with gparted? Im trying to shuffle some space out of a logical partition sda4 out to a primary partition sda3? [19:40] <_ruben> kjkjava: its a matter of personal preference combined with your list wishes/requirements :) [19:40] right now i am just one by one, copying the space left in gparted, one fs at a time [19:51] i have ubuntu server installed on a laptop. Is it possible to have dpms off everytime i boot it? [19:52] currently i have to issue sudo vbetool dpms off to turn off the screen (that´s what i want to do) [19:59] <_ruben> jdarias: put "vbetool dpms off" in /etc/rc.local oughta do the trick i'd say [19:59] nobody? [20:00] gonna check that now ruben! :) ty [20:02] brb, will tell you if it worked or not. [20:07] it worked, ruben, thank you very much! [20:08] <_ruben> nice :) [20:10] _ruben: would you know how to troubleshoot a usplash problem on a laptop? It is the only one (of like 20 installs) i have seen the usplash screen distorted. on livecd boot, it looks correct [20:10] slestak_, does the livecd use it's own drivers? [20:11] Hasbro: i dont know. This is not a server problem, we can take to to pm or #ubuntu if anyone has a problem with OT [20:11] i would think the 9.04 livecd would use its own drivers, probably nv, i am using nvidia accel driver with hd install [20:11] Might be best to try #ubuntu ;) [20:12] i was over there (still am) I was talking to _ruben over there, and saw him over here as well [20:12] sorry, i know its OT [20:13] im doing some gparted amnipulations rignt now, so i'll save the usplash problem for another day [20:17] i have 60g available in a logical partition sda4, i really need to get it out of there and into a new primary partition [20:17] i have moved it up to the front of the logical partition, but do not see how to take it any further [20:18] <_ruben> lvm for the win! ;) [20:18] is that the only solution? [20:18] i mean, am i screwed with this install, i can redo it,m just reying to extend and learn [20:18] <_ruben> probably not, but sure makes things easier [20:19] <_ruben> and whats the real underlying problem? why do you need to move the space ? [20:19] im trying to get xp home onto a primary partition, basically dual boot - ubuntu installed first [20:20] i kinda planned ahead, i have jaunty in an extended partition [20:20] <_ruben> "best" practice is to install windows first .. its has a deep love for the first primary partition, and destroys any unknown bootloaders [20:21] yeah [20:21] well, i keep good backups, im gonna just redo it. [20:21] ty for your counsel :) happy fathers day to you dads in here [20:58] I don't want to use openvpn's script cuz I already have a bridge setiup [22:11] How do I, in the terminal, choose what interface to use for internet connections? I want to use 'dnep0' but right now the system uses another wirless interface. [22:19] ErikWestrup: your wireless card was autoconfigured on the server? [22:58] nvm, I found a way out from the cloud of confusion and found a solution. :-) [23:08] does anyone know if dapper is still supported with security updates? last i heard, it was supposed to be supported, at least for server components, until 2011, but i keep on reading that it has lots of open CVEs and is not safe to be using. [23:11] New bug: #388600 in samba (main) "dpkg (подпроцесс): не удалось запустить post-installation script: Exec format error dpkg: ошибка при очистке - подпроцесс post-installation script возвратил код ошибки 2 При обработке следующих пакетов произошли ошибки: winbind" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/388600 [23:30] sdf [23:43] ErikWestrup: what was your solution? [23:51] hi [23:51] what is this error mean [23:51] Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. [23:51] getting it from mysql [23:51] phpmyadmin [23:53] stiv2k: check the username & password for that user in the phpmyadmin config [23:56] hmm [23:56] its just set to $dbuser and $dbpass [23:57] i fixed it by commenting those two lins out
