luckyonehello all, I am trying to get sound working on my ubuntu-server install00:31
giovaniluckyone: for what purpose?00:34
luckyonegiovani: I am using it as a NAS, and want to be able to play music off of it00:35
giovaniluckyone: NAS' aren't typically media players00:35
luckyonemy NAS is an MSI Wind, so it has all it needs00:36
giovaniyeah, that's not really the point00:36
giovaniI'm not sure if any of the audio drivers are in the -server kernel00:36
giovaniif it doesn't work out the box, the answer is probably no00:36
giovaniluckyone: run "lsmod | grep snd" for me00:40
luckyonelooks like my user isn't in the audio group.00:45
luckyoneit is the small things...00:45

jetolehey guys. Does anyone know a good method to map out all links on all pages on a certain website. Kinda like spider program or something. I am trying to change a large website to friendly urls and want to find a list and then make sure I didn't miss any00:47
giovanijetole: maybe a wget -nv -r --delete-after?01:04
jetolethanks01:04
* jetole checks it out01:04
giovaniit's not the cleanest method ...01:05
jetoleI think there is a don't download option01:05
* jetole is looking at wget01:05
jetoleI must have been thinking about something else01:06
jetolethis will likely take eons though01:06
jetolesince wget is downloading all files01:06
* jetole googles 01:06
giovanithat's why I said it was messy01:06
jetolelike I said, large website01:06
giovanijust run it locally on the box?01:06
jetoledon't know about that01:07
jetoleit's a windows 2003 server01:07
giovaniwhat don't you know?01:07
giovanihaha01:07
jetoleseveral actually01:07
jetoleI know I know01:07
jetoleI hate windows too01:07
jetolethis is a corporate website and the windows servers were there when I started01:07
jetoleand the tech department knows I hate windows too01:07
jetoleI'm gonna ask #apache too01:09
giovanijetole: wget -nv --spider -r htt01:09
giovanihttp://01:10
giovanithat works01:10
giovani--spider doesn't download beyond the HTML it has to to find more links01:10
giovaniyou can hack up the output with awk to get a clean url list01:10
jetoleyou know I have been meaning to learn awk01:13
jetolehave used sed for years01:13
jetolenever got around to awk01:13
giovaninot really related :)01:14

karl86hi guys, I need to set a cpanel server up to recieve mail for a domain that has its apache traffic to another box. I'm drawing blanks in google can anyone suggest some search terms that might bear fruit?02:31
matttkarl86: just point the MX record for the domain at the cpanel box?02:45
karl86hey mattt, think I might be able to do it by using an 'addon' domain and using mail forwarding02:46
karl86seems incredibly long winded, i'm used to working at command line, but cpanel works in mysterious ways02:46
matttkarl86: personally, i'd just set up the cpanel domain as normal ...02:48
matttkarl86: forget the fact that the setup also sets up an apache config, etc.  .... cpanel won't care htat you don't actually use it :)02:48
karl86that would set up virtual hosts and such in httpd.conf though wouldnt it? I only want to handle mail for this domain02:49
matttkarl86: it would, but what does it matter?02:49
karl86fair point02:50
karl86will give it a go02:50
matttkarl86: anyway, cpanel may have an option to just set up mail hosting, i know plesk does .... but sorry i'm not familiar enough w/ cpanel02:50
karl86not a problem at all, thank you for your assistance :)02:50
matttgood luck :)02:50

heath|workWould anyone know why I keep getting prompted to [sudo] right when I log in?14:28
heath|workUbuntu JeOS 9.0414:28
_rubenheath|work: probably something in your login scripts .. grep sudo ~/.*14:31
heath|work_ruben, that returns nothing, I'm not sure what is going on... it's strange14:35
_rubenheath|work: could be hiding in /etc/ somewhere as well .. or a script calls it which is being called by a login script14:41
_rubenwhat i'd do is open up 2 sessions .. while the 1st is at the sudo prompt .. run `ps auxfww` in the second .. then from the tree output you might be able to traceback the origin of the sudo call14:42
heath|work_ruben, I will give it a whirl thanks14:46
Ngkirkland: as part of your kvm-84 backport stuff, how would you feel about including kvm-pxe? :)14:51
mjeanson-mathiaz: just to let you know that we'll likely be a few minutes late14:53
mathiazmjeanson-: ok :)14:53
Ngis it normal for kvm to chomp all the CPU it can find after you start it? I'm seeing a lot of chomping and very little console action15:14
Ngand killing it when it's in that state seems to leave libvirt with the impression that something is still using the associated disks15:14
Ng(this is with the kvm-84 backport onto hardy, but I was seeing the same thing before I applied that)15:14

MTecknologyAny idea why something run as root will generate mail but when it's run from the root cron it won't?18:01
MTecknology0 0 * * 1 logwatch --detail 10 --range '-1 week' --mailto admin@server.com18:03
joe-macMTecknology: is MAILTO set to an empty string?18:12
MTecknologyjoe-mac: hm?18:13
MTecknologyjoe-mac: that's the cron that I run ^18:13
MTecknologyexcept with server.com replaced18:13
MTecknologyIf I run that as root the mail sends, run it form cron and it doesn't18:14
joe-macMTecknology: that's why i asked ab out the mailto var, says who to mail shit to from cron18:33
MTecknologyjoe-mac: where do I set that?18:37
joe-macin the crontab, at least on vixie cron18:39
joe-macright above the line for cron do MAILTO="yourusername"18:39
joe-macOH shit i misunderstood you,t hought you weren't getting cron output18:39
joe-macin that case, probably an environment thing, not sure how the logwatch --mailto functionality works18:40
MTecknologyI'll try that18:40
MTecknologyif it works I'll be happy18:40
MTecknologyit's something funky w/ cron :S18:40
MTecknology.... it worked18:41

JorgeJorgesson I seem to be having a lot of problems with mysqld starting up in Ubuntu 9.04.  I start it up with sudo mysqld &, but when I try to start the cli, I get a cannot connect error.18:49
JorgeJorgessonI have tried connecting with both localhost and 127.0.0.118:51
bitprophetnot on 9.04 myself but any reason you're not using the init script?18:51
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: /etc/init.d/mysql restart ; the  do mysql -uroot -p18:52
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: fail at server start18:53
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: pastebin the command and error\18:54
JorgeJorgessonSorry, worked fine with sudo18:54
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: why is this required everytime?  Does the server not start automatically?18:55
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: you tried starting it from mysqld when it should have been running18:55
JorgeJorgessonOk, but I could not log on from the cli mysql18:56
MTecknologycan you now?18:56
JorgeJorgessonYup18:57
MTecknologyshould just keep working then18:57
JorgeJorgessonSo, if I reboot it will work automatically now?18:57
MTecknologyshould18:57
JorgeJorgessonI'll give it a shot right now.18:58
JorgeJorgessonthanks18:58
JorgeJorgessonBecause this has happened many times before and it is driving me crazy18:58
Sp00KHey guys. I'm having a locale issue. My default locale is german while I prefer Dutch or English, reinstalling is no option since its a production box. If needed I can only restart it friday night. Does anyone have a good idea how to fix the locale issue (I prefer without a reboot)? :)19:00
MTecknologySp00K: I know you can install additional locales and just set your own locale, you might need to log out and back in, I forgot how though19:02
Sp00KMTecknology, Hm. This might be handy: http://pastebin.com/m23ccebf3 as I already installed dutch language etc, I am still facing the issue that its defaultly using de_DE. And yes, I've reconfigured locales and even locale-gen (I think its the same what dpkg does.). I only have SSH access. :|19:03
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: nope, upon reboot, the mysqld server is not running again19:04
MTecknologyI know it's possible and I've seen it done, beyond that I'm afraid I'm not much help, sorry19:04
Sp00KMTecknology, Was that against me or JorgeJorgesson?:P, if it was against me, Thanks anyways :-)19:05
MTecknologySp00K: that was you19:05
Sp00KOk, thanks anyways :)19:05
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: check /var/log//19:05

bitprophetsounds mildly problematic19:20
MTecknologybitprophet: not as problematic as my installing vista on my sisters laptop atm19:20
bitprophetcondolences19:20
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: ok, maybe I need to understand what is going on here first, sorry.19:21
JorgeJorgessonI thought the server was installed already19:21
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: have you ever installed a server app on your own system thinking it was your server, or are you still novice? :P19:22
MTecknologyI've done that a few times - I think that and any command followed by an accidental -rf / is a right of passage :P19:23
JorgeJorgessonAs I have no idea what you just said I guess I'm new19:23
Sp00KMTecknology, I just 'exported' every option for locale into NL/dutch and placed it into the global .bashrc, issue fixed since it works :)19:23
MTecknologyjoe-mac: hey... I was calling logwatch instead of /usr/sbin/logwatch......19:24
MTecknologySp00K: congrats19:24
Sp00KThanks :)19:24
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: you like rogers isp?19:25
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: It is ok.  Expensive and limited bandwidth19:25
MTecknologyouch19:26
MTecknologyHA!!!  http://www.linux-magazine.com/Userfriendly/(offset)/5119:27
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: ok, back to the issue at hand.....what am I installing with the mysql-server?19:28
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: mysql19:29
MTecknologythe server component19:30
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: but I must have it already.  I've run the server before.  I'm not sure I get it all here.19:30
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: the server component is pretty much required if you want to run a server19:31
MTecknologyjust install it and be happy ;)19:31
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: how'd you get the mysqld binary installed in the first place, if it is actually there?19:31
JorgeJorgessonmysqld-server5.019:32
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: normally you only need to install mysql-server, the rest is taken care of19:32
JorgeJorgessonahhh, now I see.19:32
bitprophetMTecknology: if I read the apt info for mysql-server it doesn't seem to install anything but mysql-server-5.0 currently (ie. it's not a meta-package pulling in other packages)19:33
bitprophetso shouldn't he already have everything that "install mysql-server" would give him?19:33
JorgeJorgessonThat is what I thought!  I just wanted to match my remote mysql servers installation19:34
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: all I can say is that if you started out with no mysql installed and did 'apt(itude|-get) install mysql-server(-5.0)' you should have an init script in /etc/init.d/ that starts mysqld for you, no problems19:35
MTecknologybitprophet: I thought mysql-server also took care of the daemon19:35
bitprophetnaw19:35
bitprophetmysql-server =~ mysql-server-5.019:35
JorgeJorgessonOk, so what is going on then????19:36
bitprophetyou're thinking of just "mysql" probably? I can't recall as I never ever install the client w/o the server, heh19:36
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: what's "ps ax | grep mysql" give you?19:36
JorgeJorgessonI hate installing stuff when I don't understand it.19:36
JorgeJorgessonNow I went and installed mysql-server.  Damn19:36
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: all I can do is help you figure out A) what's installed and B) what's running and C) how to shut it all down adn start it up the "normal" way :D19:36
bitprophetwhat did it do? it should've not actually done anything19:36
bitprophetexcept install an empty package :)19:37
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: after you do that, restart and see if things work19:37
MTecknologyjust to see19:37
bitprophetall it does is install a copyright and changelog file19:37
JorgeJorgessonok....feeling like a guinea pig here, but I'll play19:37
bitprophethttp://dpaste.com/61689/19:37
bitprophetso, JorgeJorgesson, don't worry, you didn't install anything bad :D19:38
MTecknologybitprophet: I'll go watch vista upgrade to sp1 for the next few hours19:38
JorgeJorgessonOh, I know that....I just don't want any version conflicts19:38
MTecknologyapprently I'm getting more dumber19:38
MTecknologya meta package usually helps keep version conflicts from happening..19:39

ruben23the user im using now is the user specified during the installation19:41
ruben23i never setup root password.19:41
MTecknologyruben23: reboot into recovery and launch a root shell19:41
ruben23ok19:42
ruben23then ill set to change the user password...?19:42
MTecknologyyup19:42
MTecknologypasswd user19:42
bitprophetMTecknology: "fan", not necessarily19:46
bitprophetI use it at work19:46
bitpropheta Python person at heart.19:46
bitprophetRuby's all right and has plenty of good points, but I think more like Python does.19:47
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: ok, so mysql's not running, good19:47
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: what happens if you do sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start19:47
JorgeJorgessonMTecknology: installing mysql-server did nothing19:47
bitprophetthat's the normal way of starting services, if you weren't aware (/etc/init.d/<whatever> (start|stop|restart|status|etc))19:47
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: sudo.... starts mysql server19:47
bitprophetand then ps ax | grep mysql shows it's running?19:48
JorgeJorgessonI know it's running because I can log in.  I'll run the command though19:48
bitpropheteh, that works19:48
bitprophetso are you good now?19:48
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: no, I have to manually start every time?19:49
bitprophetthe root problem here is that just executing one of the daemon binaries is rarely going to work fully on an OS which customizes the install to expect env vars and to call e.g. mysqld_safe instead of mysqld and etc etc19:49
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: no, that init script should start on boot19:49
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: it does not19:49
bitprophetfind out by doing try doing sudo update-rc.d mysql defaults19:50
JorgeJorgessonI've tried that 5 times now, sorry.19:50
bitprophetuh. forget those first 4 words19:50
bitprophetwhat does it say? that the links already exist?19:50
JorgeJorgessonYes19:51
JorgeJorgessonBut it does not19:51
bitprophetinteresting19:51
JorgeJorgessonI'd say19:51
JorgeJorgessonSerenity now.....19:51
bitprophethave you monitored the startup process to see if any obvious errors show up?19:51
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: no, I've not.19:51
bitprophetguessing it's just not set into the right runlevels somehow, which would be odd but explain the problem19:51
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: this is a fresh 9.04 install19:52
JorgeJorgessonInstalled mysql-server5.0 from the repos19:52
JorgeJorgessonNothing unusual19:52
bitprophetmm19:52
bitprophetwhat do you see when you do find /etc/rc*.d -name "*mysql*"19:52
JorgeJorgessonNote: desktop version, not server19:52
bitprophet(ignoring any -ndb stuff)19:52
bitprophetah19:52
bitprophetI've only used server19:52
JorgeJorgessonSorry....19:53
bitprophetno idea if there's a qualitative difference19:53
JorgeJorgessonshould have said that upfront19:53
bitprophetI assumed desktop just adds a bunc hof GUI shit19:53
JorgeJorgessonhahahahha19:53
bitprophetanyway so what symlinks are in the /etc/rc*.d folders?19:53
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: how many files do you want to see?19:58
bitprophetuse that find command I pasted above19:59
bitprophetshould only show maybe 2 dozen19:59
MTecknologyJorgeJorgesson: server installs a different kernel but that's the only significant difference, shouldn't change that though19:59
bitprophetcould pipe to |grep -v ndb19:59
bitprophetif you see waht I do on 8.0419:59
bitprophetshould look vaguely like this20:00
bitprophethttp://dpaste.com/61695/20:00
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: yes, I see about that many.  your pastebin is almost the same as my output20:02

bitprophetapparently so20:03
bitprophetvery bizarre20:03

bitprophetat this point I have no further idea, maybe a bug in 8.10/9.0420:04
=== erichammond1 is now known as erichammond
bitprophetYea...if you've not actually set up any data I'd aptitude purge mysql-server-5.0 and reinstall from scratch, perhaps. otherwise, no idea.20:04

JorgeJorgessonStandard, fresh installation of 9.04 does not work with mysql-server....I tried.  Two times actually.20:06
bitprophetwell, good luck with fedora then :)20:06
bitprophetI've never liked redhat or its derivatives, always prefer to find/fix/work around any warts in Debian derivatives instead ;) but to each his own20:06
JorgeJorgessonI'm not set on Fedora...anything that works with mysql-server20:07
bitprophetnaturally :)20:07
* bitprophet has to put up with RHEL on prod servers because the backup system his host uses only runs on RH type systems20:07
bitprophetbest tool for the job and all that20:07
JorgeJorgessonYup, Ubuntu does not cover all bases.  Actually this is the first instance.  Unfortunately I have to change over 4 more machines to whatever works with mysql-server.  I want them all the same. Including my POS system20:08
bitprophetSo, while I'm here, does anyone know what the latest news is on Xen (host) support? I recall hearing last year that Xen packages were being phased out, which makes me sad (my xen server is on 7.10)20:08
bitprophetyea, consistency is important20:08
JorgeJorgessonwell, especially for my users.  It took them a year to adapt to Ubuntu.  Now something new yet again.20:10
bitprophet:(20:11
JorgeJorgessonYup, not sure how to tackle this one yet.......shit sandwich and all.20:11
bitprophetmm20:11
bitprophetrock and a hard place20:11
bitprophetI'd look for bug reports, if mysql is running just fine via init script post-boot, there's got to be some stupid little thing preventing it from firing automatically on boot20:11
bitprophetor ask on #ubuntu which I imagine gets much more traffic20:11
JorgeJorgessonI'll try the mysql guys one last time.20:11
JorgeJorgessonI'm going to try XP again as well.20:12
bitprophetlike, this must be easier to solve than if it wasn't running at all, for example.20:12
JorgeJorgessonI'd have thought so.20:13
JorgeJorgessonOr someone else must have tried this before.  But if not, then this is just not something that people do with the desktop version20:13
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: yeah, it appears as though this has not been done, or there is no interest in it with the desktop Ubuntu version.  Very strange.20:16
bitprophetmakes me wonder if somehow the desktop version doesn't _run_ init scripts. that'd be pretty odd though.20:17
Travis-42how would I specify which user I want to run a command in for things like a crontab entry or a logrotate prerotate command?20:17
bitprophetsudo -u <username> <command>   ?20:18
JorgeJorgessonNot sure but I just tried it on an XP machine with rebooting.  Works just fine.20:18
bitprophetor edit that user's crontab, for that particular task.20:18
Travis-42bitprophet: ah, I didn't really occur to me that I could have just used "sudo -u" in the entry, I don't know why.  Thanks.20:18
bitprophetJorgeJorgesson: well that's a totally different OS :) so it's not really something to compare to. it's definitely not MySQL's fault, at least, defeinitely something with how Ubuntu is packaging it, or some local quirk of your system20:19
bitprophetTravis-42: np20:19
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: I agree20:19
JorgeJorgessonThat is why I'm asking here and not in mysql20:19
bitprophetdid you ask in #ubuntu yet? as I said they probably have more eyes watching, and it's more specific too, since you're on the desktop edition20:20
JorgeJorgessonyup, nothing back20:20
bitprophetworth a shot. just ask "is there any reason why my mysql init script isn't firing on boot?"20:20
bitprophetah20:20
bitprophetbummer :(20:20
JorgeJorgessonHey, I gave it a good shot here!20:21
bitprophetyou did!20:21
bitprophetWish I could be of more help20:22
JorgeJorgessonAnd I just changed the last machine over to Ubuntu yesterday....all users were to go to it tomorrow....Canada Day.20:22
JorgeJorgessonHolidays are great for training.20:22
bitprophetha20:22
JorgeJorgessonbitprophet: valiant effort!  I have a ton of work to do now.  Thanks a bunch for trying.20:23
bitprophetno prob, good luck20:23
JorgeJorgessonMight be worth a warning to future users somewhere.20:24
guntberthow do I change the language settings in ubuntu server (jaunty)?20:24

superbeef1anybody have any recent luck installing VMware-tools when running 8.04 LTS on ESX?    I'm failing accross the board including every open-vm-tools hack21:08
Sam-I-Ami run that21:08
Sam-I-Amwhich build of esx?21:09
Sam-I-Amand whats the errors21:09
superbeef13.5.021:09
superbeef1fails to compile vmmemctl21:09
superbeef1with their tools, or latest open-vm-tools21:09
Sam-I-Amwhich build of 3.521:09
Sam-I-Ambecause that matters21:09
superbeef18266321:10
Sam-I-Amupgrade21:10
superbeef1yeah it's kind of stale21:10
Sam-I-Amits up to 153-something21:10
Sam-I-Amand they have modules specifically for ubuntu now21:10
superbeef1but i don't see the memory module won't copile21:10
Sam-I-Amits also officially supported...21:10
Sam-I-Amesx 4 has debian included in the support list too21:10
superbeef1yeah i tried their repo for tools, but that failed too.....   Maybe someday soon I can get a maintenance window and upgrade the ESX host21:12
Sam-I-Amsounds like your only option21:12
Sam-I-Ami dont think open-vm-tools exists on LTS... aside from the hack21:13
Sam-I-Amfor a while there open-vm-tools on versions > LTS was the only thing that worked.21:13
superbeef1Sam-I-Am: thanks.... jeez there's a ton of pathces for this thing that need to be applied21:15
Sam-I-Amuh huh21:15
Sam-I-Am3 file sets... esx itself, vmware tools, and the VIC21:15
Sam-I-Amdepending on how you do it...21:15
superbeef1I guess I should jump through the hoops and take it up to update 3 at least21:17
Sam-I-Am4?21:17
Sam-I-Amshould be a 421:18
JorgeJorgessonok, the guys at mysql are just rude with my questions.21:26
