bofh80hi, can any one tell me what the "Basic Ubuntu Server" installs when i do a minimal install it is in the Software Select / tasks list with tomcat LAMP server etc01:03
twbbofh80: that list is the "tasksel" list.  If you dig out its data files, it should be clear.01:07
twbbofh80: AFAICT it only installs ubuntu-serverguide01:13
bofh80thanks twb01:18
smoserkirkland, how long does it take to build euca ?01:37
kirklandsmoser: 3 minutes or so01:37
kirklandsmoser: euca2ools even less01:38
smoseroh. wow.01:38
smoseri expected much longer.01:38
smoserbecause i think i have a fix for ramdisk issue (once you turn off the default ramdisk)01:38
MTecknologyis 212 deg F really hot for a laptop?02:20
MTecknology:P02:20
twbMTecknology: what is that in a useful scale?02:24
MTecknologytwb: 100 C02:24
smoserkirkland, bug 526805 , bug 525989, bug 525994 now have accurate comments/state (afaik) as to what we've found today02:24

twbMTecknology: if that's the CPU temperature, then yes, that's probably too hot.02:25
smosernow i'm looking into fixing 526805, which is the root issue.  i *thought* i had a fix, but i must have messed up somehow.02:25
kirklandsmoser: cool, did you add the bit about the default kernel/ramdisk in UI?02:25
smoseryeah.02:25
smoseri guess you can't change that in euca_conf02:25
MTecknologytwb:02:25
MTecknologytwb: I'm thinking of killing the build and passing it onto launchpad instead02:26
twbMTecknology: I don't think launchpad will be able to fix hardware faults in your laptop02:27
MTecknologytwb: building a deb package02:28
smoserkirkland, i really have no idea how to solve this.02:31
smoserfor alpha3, realistically, the only thing i can think of is using ramdisk.02:31
kirklandsmoser: okay, let's do that for A302:31
kirklandsmoser: and we need to talk to eucalyptus upstream for a solution02:31
kirklandsmoser: did you try zero'ing out those two fields in the GUI, and then registering an image without a ramdisk?02:32
smoseryeah, thats where bug 526805 comes from02:38

d4n1hey, what is a good ftp server i can use on my server?03:24
d4n1http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/ftp-server, which is the best, or which do u recommend?03:27
qman__d4n1, I recommend not using an FTP server, use SFTP instead if at all possible03:34
qman__but, if you absolutely must have FTP, I would prefer VSFTPD03:35
d4n1ok03:35
d4n1im "trying" to install vsftpd03:36
d4n1and what would be a good SFTP? does it still run on port 22?03:36
qman__SFTP is built into openssh-server03:36
d4n1i have openssh-server03:36
qman__if you need jails, it can be configured in the sshd-config03:37
qman__if not, it's already all set up03:37
qman__just add system users03:37
d4n1will it run like an ftp server on port 22?03:37
qman__no, it runs an SFTP server, on port 2203:37
d4n1ok03:38
d4n1hmm..03:38
qman__you need a client that can do SFTP, such as sftp, gftp (for linux) winSCP or filezilla (for windows)03:38
d4n1ok, sftp, ill install it, thank u03:38
qman__'sftp' is built into the basic package set03:38
qman__it's a command line utility03:39
d4n1ok, why don't we pm03:39
twbPuTTY also has an SFTP client, IIRC.03:41
twbd4n1: at the protocol level, SFTP and FTP are completely different.  It's not just FTP-over-SSH.03:42
d4n1ok, then if i need an ftp server, id better go for vsftp twb??03:43
twbSFTP is better than vsftp, simply because SFTP isn't FTP.03:43
twbBut if you needed FTP, vsftp is what I'd recommend, because it has a security focus.03:43
d4n1ok03:43
qman__using FTP is like using telnet03:43
qman__it's archaic, insecure, and limited03:43
qman__SFTP is better in every way03:43
d4n1ok03:44
twbhttp://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie03:45
qman__nice link03:46
d4n1ok, then forget about ftp03:46
qman__SFTP operates entirely on one port, with encryption, securely03:49
d4n1ok, ill take a look at my sshd_conf file03:50
qman__you don't need to do anything special to set up SFTP, it's on by default03:51
qman__you only need to make changes if you want certain users to have SFTP-only access, or to use jails03:51
d4n1really, then i must have something else wrong03:51
d4n1thank u qman__ and twb03:51
maxagazMy dhcp server doesn't start at boot, it's checked in sysv-rc-conf (2,3,4,5), there's nothing in /var/log/syslog until I start it manually, what else can I check ?04:03
bobsomebodyhello04:05
cefmaxagaz: check the /etc/default/ directory04:08
twbmaxagaz: which dhcpd implementation?04:11
bogeyd6maxagaz, we need to know your dhcpd package, is it bind9?04:15
maxagaztwb, isc-dhcpd-V3.0.5 with a patch for ldap04:15
maxagazit works fine on other servers04:15
bogeyd6did you manually check the directories for the script and make sure its executable?04:16
maxagazbogeyd6, it works when I run it manually04:16
bogeyd6maxagaz, is it in say /etc/rc5.d/04:16
maxagazbogeyd6, I have /etc/rc5.d/S20dhcp-server04:17
bogeyd6maxagaz, also you can try to re-run sudo update-rc.d name_of_the_script defaults04:17
bogeyd6maxagaz, ls -l /etc/rc5.d/S20dhcp*04:18
maxagazupdate-rc.d dhcp-server defaults04:18

bogeyd6maxagaz, also there is this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54530004:21
bogeyd6pay particular attention to the last sentence of the last post04:21
ceferr, ubuntu uses runlevel 2 by default, not 504:23
bogeyd6cef, just an example, but running the defaults show its still set, same dif04:24
twbIt also doesn't distinguish between runlevels 2 through 5 by default04:24
cefit says links exist, it doesn't tell you WHICH ones exist04:25
maxagazwhat I don't undertand is that I have nothing in the logs04:25
maxagaznot even a message saying that it tried to run the dhcp-server04:26
bogeyd6maxagaz, its probably not even trying to run the script04:26
cefupdate-rc.d will not verify that system startup links are correct, and by default will not change them\04:26
maxagazbogeyd6, exactly04:26
cefmaxagaz: 'ls -l /etc/init.d/dhcp-server' ?04:26
bogeyd6cef, you are wasting time bro.04:26
bogeyd6cef, update-rc.d updates the System V style init script links /etc/rcrunlevel.d/NNname whose target is the script /etc/init.d/name04:27
maxagazcef, -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2887 2009-11-12 14:53 /etc/init.d/dhcp-server04:27
cefmaxagaz: you built from source, correct? can you pastebin that file?04:28
maxagazcef, yes, I built it from source04:28
maxagazcef, it used to work until last week04:28
cef(as in /etc/init.d/dhcp-server )04:28
maxagazcef, paste which file ?04:29
maxagaz/etc/init.d/dhcp-server ?04:29
cefyes04:29
cefbogeyd6: read the man page for update-rc.d "bro"..  If  any  files  /etc/rcrunlevel.d/[SK]??name already exist then update-rc.d does nothing.  The program was written this way so  that  it  will never  change an existing configuration, which may have been customized by the system administrator.04:31
maxagazcef, http://pastebin.com/Y3yg20ZJ04:33
cefmaxagaz: when you start it after boot, what command are you running?04:36
maxagazcef, /etc/init.d/dhcp-server start04:36
cefmaxagaz: as root/via sudo I'm assuming?04:37
maxagazcef, yes04:38
maxagazcef, and it works04:38
cefmaxagaz: yeah.. ok my guess is that it depends on something that isn't running yet. so pastebin the output of 'ls -1 /etc/rc2.d/' pls04:39
cefbtw: on Hardy, dhcp3-server starts at S4004:40
cefyup.. starting at S20 instead of later.. looks like it needs hal to be started first (well, it makes the most sense)...04:44
cefso, try 'mv /etc/rc2.d/S20dhcp-server /etc/rc2.d/S40dhcp-server' and see if that helps04:47
cefthat'll just change that one script to start later in the default runlevel (2). to do that with update-rc.d, you could use 'update-rc.d dhcp-server multiuser 40', but that wont work if any of the /etc/rc?.d/ links exist04:49
cefmaxagaz: if it still doesn't work, you could always add an 'echo "starting" > /root/dhcp-test' into that script to see if it's even calling it, getting to certain points, etc.04:52
OmrIs there a way to check whats running in my server?04:56

Omrthanks04:59
Omrok is there a way to see what one is writing to the hard drive 24/7?05:05
ceftop will show you if something is touching the disk a lot05:12
cefactually no it won't, cos it doesn't show anything at all relating to disk access. :(05:13
Omryeah ive run most commands i found but no disk info.  Something wont stop using my disk and it keeps shutting down due to overheating05:14
Omri could turn off the safty in bios but then my disk would probably die.  The safty is set at 75 degrees celcius05:15
cefthe pc shuts down?05:15
OmrYeah bios turns it off05:16
cefok, that's the cpu overheating then, not so much the drive05:16
Omrit was the servers first night on last night it was off in the morning and its turned off 2 times tonight05:16
OmrNo the bios says the drive is to hot05:16
cefahh server bios? ok05:16
OmrIts a laptop FMV Biblo the bios moniters the cpu gpu and hdd temp05:17
Omrwhen the laptop is turned back on a screen informs me it shut down due to sensor 3 over temperature05:19
ceflsof will tell you everything that is open, but that'll be a big list05:19
Omri ran sudo apt-get remove apache2 but apache2 is still running with 7 processes using 4% cpu and 32 - 40 mb ram?05:20
Omrbut i doubt apache would use the hdd anyway05:21
Omrbut thats my top on ps -aux | less05:21
cefjust  'killall apache2' (or whatever the process name is)05:22
Omrthanks05:22
cefcould simply be all the logging, especially if it's a public webserver and a spider has found it and is indexing the thing.05:23
OmrIts not public and isn't exposed to the internet atm05:29
Omrbut i just realised im an idiot05:30
Omrever since i installed it a program keeps posting notes about reloading config files and errors and other random crap id assume thats probably my culprit05:30
Omri just gotta wait for another message05:30
maxagazcef, it worked! :)05:39
maxagazcef, I mean changing the priority to S4005:40
maxagazcef, why did you think that hal should be mounted first ?05:41
cefmaxagaz: I have absolutely no idea.. I just looked at the starting priorities on the dhcp3 server here that runs the standard package. could be hal is doing something to the devices that dhcp3 needs, or it could be a completely different service07:07
cefmaxagaz: the only services that match between the machine I have on hand and yours in /etc/rc2.d that lies between S20 and S40 are hal, bluetooth, pulseaudio and gdm. of those, hal is about the only one that makes any sense.07:16

sorenSergiu24: Oh, Dapper actually had 4.0 as well. My bad. Apparantly, the naming scheme changed with 4.1, so I missed it when I first looked.08:21

ivoks_ruben: clustered lvm, clustered filesystems - both work08:59
_rubennice09:00
ivoks_ruben: drbd management, services have worked before09:00
_rubenivoks: tried drbd mc (i think that's what it called)? or all configuration done "by hand" ?09:01
ivoksi have a setup where i have drbd shared storage, on top of which is LVM, and on one of LVs is GFS209:01
ivokspacemaker makes sure services are started in proper order, including distributed lock management, drbd master/master promotion, clvm and filesystem mounting09:02
ivoksafter everything is up, apache and vsftpd are started (but before services are started, additional IPs are up on interfaces, so that apache and vsftpd bind to those)09:03
ivokswhen one node fails, the other one takes over it's ip and service09:03

ivoksi'm don't know what's the status with it09:35
persiaThere's been good progress based on the VOIP team uploads, but based on the UDS discussion, I'm not convinced karmic was that shiny09:39
Davieypersia: shiny?09:40
rc55Could someone list the best root directories to backup for a full system backup? I'm doing /home at the moment, but assuming I'll need /var and /opt, any others?09:40
persiaDaviey: All rough edges buffed until there everything is even enough to provide significant reflection.09:40
persias/there everything/everything there/09:40
leniosrc55, you might need /etc if you changed anything there09:43
andolrc55: You probably want to backup /etc as well. It will take basically no storage space in comparraions, and there's always some fancy configuration in there you might want to peak at aftewards.09:43
Davieypersia: heh. the individual packages are actually pretty shiny - a couple of issues include it being an RC release that upstream were a little unable about (they wanted a stable), the inteion being to track the release through the cycle - but for no obvious reason there was a largely delay in them releasing stable than ever before by the seems of it.  Also it's a different version from debian making the support slightly harder.09:43
Davieypersia: Also, Lucid is a "fun" release - as none of upstreams releases will be supported for the length of lucid.09:44
Daviey(by upstream)09:44
rc55lenios / andol: Thank you both, that's very useful. :)09:44
uvirtbotNew bug: #526918 in samba (main) "File sharing not working in karmic" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/52691809:46
Davieypersia: We did make really good progress in lucid, with quite a few changes.  One thing that made karmic difficult is -server seed not installing the headers, so dkms does when installed.  However, lack of slippy depends means dkms usually installs the wrong headers for server.  Which means many people may have installation problems, but that is really something that was near impossible for us to resolve.09:46
PupenoHow do I set the domain (for resolv.conf) in /etc/network/interfaces?09:50

ghostlinesany help is appreciated09:56
sorenWhat are these xml files?09:57
incorrectghostlines, did you define them?09:57
ghostlinesthe config files that kvm uses for the virtual machines09:57
sorenkvm does not use config files for virtual machines. libvirt does.09:57
sorenand convirt does not - unless something changed recently - use libvirt.09:58
incorrectghostlines, in virsh define /etc/libvirt/qemu/something.xml ?09:58
ghostlinesohh my mistake09:58
ghostlinesi have vm's running already and i use virt-manager to run them09:59
ghostlines*to manage them09:59
ghostlinesbut i wonder if convirt can be used to manage them also09:59
ghostlinesand if so how would i go about adding existing vm's to convirt to be able to manage them09:59
ghostlinesi saw an option to load config files so i chose the libvirt config files but to no avail10:00
Davieypersia: hmm, it seems to be in server-ship ok.. But if someone wants to install it on desktop (perhaps for testing), it will still crapout.  It's really a problem with dkms installing the first dependency linux-header rather than the headers of the current linux kernel.10:03
persiaDaviey: Ah, this likely affects users of -preempt as well.  Maybe dkms could be extended to check if the available headers match the *running* kernel, and if not, attempt to install the right headers package?10:04
Davieypersia: is it debian policy compliant to apt-get a package in postinst?10:06
sorenDaviey: no10:06
* Daviey wouldn't have thought so.10:07
sorenDaviey: Why would you want to?10:07
persiasoren: Because dkms fails if there exists more than one flavour of the kernel per architecture right now.10:07
* soren facepalms10:08
persiaso, e.g., amd64, which has three flavours, just plain doesn't work for anything that needs modules except if the default kernel flavour (which is the boring one) is installed.10:09
persiapowerpc has issues on PS3s10:09
persiaarmel is just broken for dkms10:09
persiaOther architectures should be fine.10:09
Davieythis has been a long term issue, that has been avoided by luck IMO.  I heard the best solution was to wait for "slippy depends", so it's satisified at package install time, except i've not heard anything new on this.10:09
acalvoanyone using squid with windows machines and got running windows update thru it?10:10
Davieyacalvo: I assume it's not working for you?10:10
persia"slippy depends" isn't likely to happen any time soon: it requires additional semantics in a host of packages.10:10
acalvoDaviey: yes, it's not working here10:11
Davieypersia: I'm not sure i can think of a clean solution, other than suggesting to dkms a cleaner error message, with a suggestion of how to fix it.10:12
Davieywhich is still rubbish.10:12
persiaDaviey: Or make dkms depend on all headers (which installs extra stuff but avoids the pain)10:15
Davieyi suspect that would upset some people10:15
DavieyISTR an upset about -headers being on a server anyway.10:16

reisidoes anyone have vendor (hp/dell/ibm) recommendations for running ubuntu-server? it'd seem that especially hp (which is the only one I've got experience on) supports rhel and debian 3.020:52
Jeeves_reisi: Almost everything works20:54
Jeeves_hp is the vendor which whines a lot about support20:54
Jeeves_'i will not support that server, it is not mounted in a HP-rack'20:55
Jeeves_hp--20:55
reisiheh20:55
bogeyd6HP and IBM20:56
bogeyd6Dell support and hardware is more consumer grade20:56
bogeyd6dont get me wrong its good, but you cant match it up to an IBM or HP20:57
reisiand fujitsu would seem to be so hung up on microsoft that they couldn't care less about linux admins20:57
reisibogeyd6: i've always had that kind of feeling about dell; but never used one actually20:57
Jeeves_reisi: We've just switched to Fujitsu20:58
reisiJeeves_: oh, and you have deployed ubuntu-servers on them?20:58
Jeeves_reisi: Yes, without much problems21:00
Jeeves_Hardy had an issue with the raid card21:00
Jeeves_but everything else worked just fine21:00
Jeeves_(I don't like raidcards anyways, mdadm++)21:00
reisiJeeves_: same here.. but for example with the hp ml350g5 with entry level e200i raid controller, i couldn't figure out how to get it expose the disks and not just logical volumes21:01
Jeeves_reisi: it seems that they can't21:02
Jeeves_I've bugged my fujitsu sales rep about it21:02

ivoksno wonder people don't like raid controlers if they use that cciss-help-me-god things :D21:14
bogeyd6I would never use fakeraid controller21:14
StrangeCharmhow can i install 9.10 (alt installer) from a usb disk? i want to use full-disk encryption - which doesn't seem supported by the livecd/installer. whenever i use unetbootin to put the alt installer on a usb drive, the image boots, but it can't find the 'cd' containing the rest of the installation materials. do i need to manually mount something, prepare the disk differently, or what?21:14
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, unetbooin21:14
ivoks3ware is not fakeraid21:14
reisiivoks: you're saying cciss ctrls are bad?21:15
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, unetbootin21:15
ivoksreisi: no; i'm just teasing21:15
StrangeCharmbogeyd6, yes?21:15
ivoksreisi: but i wouldn't say they are better than 3ware21:15
reisiivoks: so what would you do prefer?21:16
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, did you put the extracted iso on the usb drive?21:16
ivoksreisi: i have around 50 3wares deployed in production21:16
ivoksmaybe 5-10 cciss21:16
ivoksand couple of percs21:17
StrangeCharmbogeyd6, isn't unetbootin doing that?21:17
reisiivoks: so i guess you also like all the tools available for 3ware controllers?21:17
ivoksreisi: yeah, tw_cli is second best thing after ssh21:17
reisiivoks: mind you, in 8.04 you cannot even query SMART with smartctl from an SATA drive, well except for the fact that it has been turned on21:18
ivoksreisi: ?21:18
ivoksreisi: that's not true21:18
reisiivoks: with cciss e200i controller21:18
ivoksreisi: oh, yeah...21:19
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, i dont think unetbootin puts the packages on the usb drive21:19
reisiivoks: somehow i'm not buying the disks not having proper firmware to support smart queries, so it must be either the (old) cciss module or the fact that hp thinks that it's an enterprise feature21:20
StrangeCharmbogeyd6, it just copies the image &c? the status messages seemed to suggest that it was copying the rest of the packages over21:20
ivoksreisi: it's the controler issue21:20
ivoksreisi: but it should work with cciss21:20
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, definitely does not21:20
ivokslet me check21:21
bogeyd6StrangeCharm, you need to extract the iso to its own folder on the USB drive if you wanna go that route21:21
reisiivoks: by controller issue you mean that it's most likely by the cheap controller limiting the queries?21:21
bogeyd6plus unetbootin is strictly for livecds21:21
reisiivoks: it works yes, but smartctl does not get any replies other than smart is enabled from each hdd21:21
StrangeCharmbogeyd6, not for installers at all?21:22
ivoksreisi: smartctl -d cciss,0 -a /dev/cciss/c0d021:22
ivoksreisi: >> Terminate command early due to bad response to IEC mode page21:22
ivokshahaha21:22
ivokshp sucks.21:23
reisiivoks: thats interesting :)21:23
reisihave to give hp props for the cciss team email being the only email address from @hp.com ever giving me any sensible answers for technical questions21:24
StrangeCharmis there something that i can run from within an ubuntu live environment that will give me the alternative installer's options?21:25

pteagueany reason why `pidof apache2` would say "bash: /sbin/pidof: No such file or directory"?  i was trying to figure out why i couldn't run /etc/init.d/apache restart (or reload) & that's the point at which it's failing22:07
loolpteague: pidof is supposed to be in /bin, not /sbin, but it's a symlink to killall22:11
loolpteague: So if you don't have /usr mounted, it would give such a message22:11
pteaguehmm... doing `ls -l /bin/pidof /sbin/pidof` shows that they're both pointing to /sbin/killall522:13
loolUh right, sorry I misread22:13
loolpteague: But youd /sbin/pidof comes from where?22:14
lool*your22:14
sorenpteague: Does /sbin/killall5 exist? What does "file  /sbin/killall5" say?22:14
pteaguehere's where the softlinks point "/bin/pidof -> ../sbin/killall5" & "/sbin/pidof -> killall5"22:15
pteagueok, that's weird... "/sbin/killall5: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.0.0, stripped"... is it supposed to be 32-bit on a 64-bit?22:16

lool/sbin/killall5: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped22:17
pteague`file /bin/bash` shows "/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped" so i know it's 64-bit22:17
