ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about mysql#10:21
holyhandgrenade!mysql10:21
ubottuLAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)10:21

ihtarlikWhy is samba-daemon listening on port 7?11:01
ihtarlikI've looked all over, and I can find absolutely no documentation on why Samba has tcp port 7 open.  I know it's Samba because port 7 closes when I stop Samba.  I'm using Jaunty and Samba 3.3.2.11:08

mattgyverim running a website on my 9.04 server.  When im viewing my site within my LAN, certain links force the server computer to restart like you hit reset, any ideas?18:53
simplexiomattgyver: hw problem, assuming that you dont run code which has shutdown/reboot commands19:06
simplexiomattgyver: hw as broken hardware or netcard driver.. there is no other way explain that.19:07
mattgyversimplexio, its not quite random so i dont think its hw related, i wouldnt be suprised if the code does not have shutdown and reboot commands within though19:08
mattgyversimplexio, Im running Jinzora, not sure if your familiar with that its a music content manager and sharing utility19:08
simplexiomattgyver: ssh server and tail -f /var/log/kern.log etc.. log files to see latest error19:08
mattgyverokay, i will include that with my next test that I am about to do19:09
mattgyversimplexio, if i recall tail must be run before hand as it will output live data to the terminal correct?19:09
simplexiomattgyver: just open several conenction and 'tail -f' for kern.loh, syslog etc etc-.. log in /var/log/19:09
mattgyverok19:10
simplexiomattgyver: tail -f outputs if there is some new line in file, thats why you need few windows19:10
mattgyverok19:11
mattgyverI will make that its own test then19:11
simplexiomattgyver: or conenction to keep on eye for several logs19:11
