| wizzy__ | always till "segmentation faulty tree .. 50% and then back to terminal | 05:11 |
| wizzy__ | and php5 not installed | 05:12 |
| jmarsden | So what happens when you do sudo apt-get install php5-cli ? Can you pastebin the full output somewhere I can see it? | 05:12 |

| wizzy__ | same thing | 05:14 |
| jmarsden | wizzy__: Wow, it's *really* unhappy. Do you know when this started, or what you might have done to cause it? | 05:17 |

| wizzy_ | its fresh install , | 05:20 |
| wizzy_ | only think i did was to setup apache2 | 05:21 |
| jmarsden | wizzy_: Then the simple thing to do could be to do another fresh install... something is *wrong* with that apt database. | 05:21 |

| Determinist | i'm trying to install sun-java6-jdk using a bash script on several remote machines but i keep running into the same problem: certain packages bring up a manual confirmation dialog during installation and i can't seem to find a way to override this behavior (aptitude -y doesn't help, obviously). any ideas? | 06:48 |
| Determinist | nada? | 06:50 |
| jmarsden | Determinist: if the dialog is from debconf you can preseed the question concerned. if not... you'd have to look at exactly what the installer script is doing. | 06:51 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: preseed = ? and how would i know this? | 06:51 |
| jmarsden | Determinist: Read the Ubuntu Installation Guide. See https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html for example | 06:53 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: ty | 06:53 |
| jmarsden | You're welcome. | 06:53 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: may seem silly, but i actually figured out what i need to pass (parameters), but i have no idea how (after reading that guide above). how do i actually pass 'preseed --owner sun-java6-jdk shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 boolean true' to aptitude (or am i being silly) ? | 07:00 |
| jmarsden | I'm not sure you pass it to aptitude. You set it in the debconf database. I'm no expert on preseeding, I just know it exists for things like this... | 07:01 |
| jmarsden | See if man 7 debconf # sheds any light on how all this works. | 07:02 |
| Determinist | ok, thanks | 07:02 |

| Roxyhart0 | hi, how i can know which kind of array i got? | 07:09 |
| Roxyhart0 | array disk | 07:09 |
| Roxyhart0 | how i can create disk array from line command | 07:11 |
| jmarsden | Determinist: Probably not. | 07:13 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: getting somewhere with dpkg --set-selections | 07:13 |
| jmarsden | Roxyhart0: cat /proc/mdstat will show you what Software RAID arrays you currently have running. Is that what you mean? | 07:13 |
| Roxyhart0 | no doesn't show me nothing and is weird | 07:14 |
| Roxyhart0 | beacuse when i install (start with cd ) i installed the array disks | 07:15 |
| Roxyhart0 | I mean the array that i did when i installed, i am usind a HP server | 07:15 |
| Roxyhart0 | i got just it: Personalities : | 07:16 |
| Roxyhart0 | unused devices: <none> | 07:16 |
| jmarsden | "Installed the array disks"? What do you mean? Does your server have a hardware RAID controller you are using? | 07:21 |
| Roxyhart0 | yes | 07:21 |
| jmarsden | Then /proc/mdstat does not show those, it shows Software RAID (not Hardware RAID). | 07:22 |
| Roxyhart0 | no :( | 07:22 |
| jmarsden | To see the status of hardware RAID arrays you must use whatever utility is for that controller. | 07:22 |
| Roxyhart0 | i used the HP tool before install ubuntu, and when i was installing ubuntu, it shows me the array | 07:23 |
| Roxyhart0 | but now i cant see | 07:23 |
| sub | can't see what? | 07:23 |
| jmarsden | See if you can find your RAID controller listed on http://wiki.debian.org/LinuxRaidForAdmins and use whatever utility works with it. | 07:24 |
| sub | HPs SmartArrays usually end up like /dev/cciss/c0d0 or something | 07:24 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: got it :D | 07:25 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: debconf-utils | 07:25 |
| jmarsden | Determinist: Cool :) | 07:25 |
| Determinist | jmarsden: thanks for the guidance. didn't even know where to begin :) | 07:25 |
| jmarsden | You're welcome. | 07:26 |
| * jmarsden installs debconf-utils ... :) | 07:26 | |
| sub | Roxyhart0: Are you trying to mount the array or are you trying to see the configuration? | 07:26 |
| Roxyhart0 | see the configuration an then create LVM | 07:26 |
| sub | if it's an HP server you can reboot and configure the RAID arrays via the ROM-based utility at boot | 07:27 |
| Roxyhart0 | but i think jmarsen is right..because i am using smart array. Do you know doc about this kind of tips using HP server with ubuntu?. PD. tahns very much jmarsen, you are always very kind | 07:27 |
| Roxyhart0 | and thanks as well sub | 07:28 |
| jmarsden | Roxyhart0: You're welcome. | 07:28 |
| sub | Roxyhart0: Do you see anything when you do: ls -al /dev/cciss/ | 07:29 |
| Roxyhart0 | yes, i just see that | 07:34 |
| Roxyhart0 | i didnt know this is the "name" using HP | 07:34 |
| Roxyhart0 | question which kind of format is better for data? xfs or ext? | 07:46 |
| qman__ | ext3 is historically more reliable, xfs can suffer total data loss if your system crashes or loses power suddenly | 07:51 |
| Roxyhart0 | thanks for that, i will use ext3 | 07:51 |
| qman__ | if you use xfs, make sure you use a stable configuration with a UPS | 07:51 |
| Roxyhart0 | what could be the benefit using xfs? | 07:52 |
| qman__ | xfs offers some performance benefits, particularly with larger files | 07:52 |
| Roxyhart0 | i think i prefare something reliable, even if is could be slower | 07:53 |
| qman__ | for important data, I agree | 07:53 |
| qman__ | ext3 has been very reliable for me in the past, and even when I've had some corruption, generally the errors are recoverable with minimal data loss | 07:53 |
| Roxyhart0 | yes, i had also a experience before i could reocver just ext3 but the partition which was xfs i couldnt. I thought was just casuality | 07:54 |
| Roxyhart0 | hi any experience with ext4? is better than ext3 and realiable? | 10:15 |

| MTecknology | Any ideas how to display a heartbeat page? | 22:02 |
| MTecknology | I want to make one server show uptime for all other servers.. | 22:02 |
| MTecknology | publicly.. | 22:03 |
| KurtKraut | MTecknology, are you sure this is a valuable data to publice? Usually you have to hire/rent another company to make the mesurements and publicize it for you. | 22:26 |
| KurtKraut | MTecknology, because they'd be neutral and wouldn't hide downtimes | 22:26 |
| sub | I understand the point you are trying to make, but I disagree with the statement that they would be neutral -- You are paying them after all | 22:30 |
| sub | :-) | 22:30 |
| MTecknology | KurtKraut: I just thought it would be something fun to show. | 22:30 |
| KurtKraut | sub, but their business depends on the reliability they can provide. A single 'scandal' would put them out of business. | 22:31 |
| sub | In monitoring you have all sorts of thresholds and ways of weeding out "false positives" that would make it really easy to say "Due to technical limitations, we weren't able to report the downtime until N minutes after the incident" | 22:32 |
| sub | However, usually, these hired/outsourced monitoring companies report the outages directly to the company paying them and not their customers | 22:33 |
| sub | MTecknology: If you're just doing it for giggles or for fun, I'd recommend you look into an interpretted language that can be used easily for web development | 22:34 |
| sub | Whether that's Python, Ruby, PHP, Perl, or some other thing is up to you | 22:34 |
| sub | I'm sure there are already freely-downloadable solutions for all of the languages I listed above | 22:35 |
| sub | Otherwise you can set up a full monitoring package using Zabbix, Nagios, or some other software | 22:36 |

| myjimmyweb | only problem is that now my dns isn't working | 23:26 |
| ujjain | mijimmyweb: did you check the logs? can you telnet to udp 53? | 23:27 |
| ujjain | what port is dns? | 23:27 |
| myjimmyweb | oofta, i ssh into it with putty, hmm, trying to set up a dyndns setup | 23:28 |
| myjimmyweb | idk, basically it all works if i access it with my local ip, but not with the myjimmyweb.homeftp.net | 23:28 |
| ujjain | So you are not running our own dns server. | 23:28 |
| ujjain | What happens if you ping to the homeftp? | 23:29 |
| ujjain | correct ip? | 23:29 |
| ujjain | Maybe your router forwarding settings are incorrect. | 23:29 |
| myjimmyweb | that's what i'm thinking | 23:29 |
| myjimmyweb | do i have to open a port on my router? | 23:29 |
| myjimmyweb | for the server's ip address? | 23:29 |
| ujjain | What is your server's ip? please give me the first 3 digits, e.g. 192.168.1. | 23:30 |
| ujjain | I mean, that's an internal ip and would explain the problem. | 23:31 |
| myjimmyweb | 192.168.1 | 23:31 |
| ujjain | Ok, that's it. | 23:31 |
| ujjain | You go to http://192.168.1.1 | 23:31 |
| myjimmyweb | yeah, that's my router | 23:32 |
| ujjain | type the login details, maybe admin/password, user/user. | 23:32 |
| myjimmyweb | yeah yeah | 23:32 |
| myjimmyweb | i'm in my router | 23:32 |
| ujjain | go to forwarding settings or dmz | 23:32 |
| myjimmyweb | but i'm not sure what port to forward | 23:32 |
| ujjain | and make sure all requests, or port 80 (web), is sent to that ip, e.g. 192.168.1.13 | 23:32 |
| myjimmyweb | cool | 23:32 |
| myjimmyweb | let's try that | 23:32 |
| ujjain | and make sure the homeftp DNS is sent to your real external ip, and not internal. | 23:32 |
| ujjain | www.whatsmyip.com might give your ip. | 23:33 |
| ujjain | no, that's spam | 23:33 |
| myjimmyweb | yeah, dyndns has it set up | 23:33 |
| ujjain | http://whatismyipaddress.com/ | 23:33 |
| ujjain | the ip at that location? | 23:33 |
| ujjain | or your 192.168 ip? | 23:33 |
| myjimmyweb | yeah | 23:33 |
| myjimmyweb | no it's my external | 23:33 |
| myjimmyweb | in ISPConfig, myDNS-Server is "oFfline" | 23:34 |
| ujjain | http://external ip should work | 23:34 |
| ujjain | if http://internal ip works. | 23:34 |
| ujjain | you don't need dns-server if you use homeftp.net's dns service. | 23:34 |
| myjimmyweb | ok | 23:34 |
| myjimmyweb | plugging my external in works | 23:35 |
| myjimmyweb | i get the It Works! site | 23:35 |
| ujjain | Great! Well done! | 23:35 |
| myjimmyweb | just not when i plug in my name | 23:36 |
| myjimmyweb | myjimmyweb.homeftp.net | 23:36 |
| ujjain | does your ip start with 24? | 23:37 |
| myjimmyweb | hah, yeah | 23:37 |
| ujjain | I dont think it's correctly redirecting the port 80 traffic. | 23:38 |
| myjimmyweb | hah, yo utry going to my external? | 23:38 |
| ujjain | I did. | 23:39 |
| ujjain | It does not work. | 23:39 |
| myjimmyweb | hmm | 23:39 |

| ujjain | You should set your DMZ, which forwards all ports, that's easier. | 23:41 |
| ujjain | And less secure, but hopefully nobody's reading. | 23:42 |
