NafaiIs there a way yet to backup folders from outside ~/Ubuntu One in the client in Lucid yet?05:46
NafaiOr is the only alternative to move things into ~/Ubuntu One and then symlink into their proper place?05:46
duanedesignNafai: i know that feature is planned for Lucid05:52
duanedesignNafai: but i dont think it has made it in yet05:52
NafaiOkay, just making sure I wasn't missing anything05:53
duanedesignNafai: i think this is the 'master' bug report for that issue if you want to monitor it for a Fix Released status. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/38520805:56
ubottuLaunchpad bug 385208 in ubuntuone-client "Client should support multiple/custom directories for sync" [Medium,Fix committed]05:56
NafaiThanks!05:56
duanedesignNafai: but of course we dont mind if you ask here either :)05:56
NafaiNow I'm trying to get my contacts from gmail into Evolution so I can back them up to Ubuntu One.  Unfortunately, it doesn't always work right (i.e., if I just have a business name)05:59
NafaiToo much effort to clean up and maintain :(06:03
duanedesignNafai: yeah Google exports the CSV a little differently06:04
NafaiPerhaps I'll have to write something that uses the gdata api and then syncs to desktop couchdb06:04
duanedesignNafai: I have heard people have had better luck with the VCard format.06:05
Nafainot much different, unfortunately06:05
duanedesignThere are also work arounds that include an extra step. like importing from Google to yahoo to Evolution. Or Google to Thunderbird to Evolution06:06
* Nafai nods06:07
NafaiI'll explore those tomorrow06:07
Nafaithanks for the heads up06:07
duanedesignNafai: sure thing. Also during the week there is a lot more people (Ubuntu One developers) in here usually between 12:00-21:00 GMT that are very helpfull and always happy to offer knowledge06:09
Nafaisure, I'll ask then as well06:09
duanedesignNafai: one final not. I found a launchpad Answer with some input on the topic, might be usefull. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+question/1748506:15

wojtek_Hello I have a question about desktopcouch10:54
wojtek_the desktop couch ini file keeps a [oatuh_consumer_secrest], [oauth_token_secrets] and [oatuh_token_users]10:55
wojtek_Are the same values stored in keyring ?10:55
wojtek_If I want to for example create database in couchdb wrapped by desktopcouch, Can I use [oauth_token_secrest]10:56
wojtek_to create a request signature ?10:57
wojtek_I mean is that needed to perform a authrization process itself ? Do we have accessToken  or requestToken written in ini file ?10:59
wojtek_And finally If we have to perform authorization process, what server do we have to use to authorization process11:01
wojtek_And Yet another, and for sure finally question ? Is everything understandable from what I have written here above ?11:02
sanderqdto run mozilla raindrop, do i still need to apply the patch from http://www.kryogenix.org/days/2009/10/23/running-raindrop-on-ubuntu-9-10-using-desktop-couch ?13:15
sanderqdnever mind, found my answer14:02
NafaiI haven't found a definitive answer to this online, I'm trying to log onto the futon web interface for desktop couch and am not having luck figuring out what the username / password is17:36
sanderqdNafai: xdg-open $HOME/.local/share/desktop-couch/couchdb.html17:48
NafaiI have Chromium as my default browser, and when I do that, it requests a username / password17:50
sanderqdNafai: running karmic?17:56
Nafailucid17:56
Nafai(doing development for lucid for Canonical, so I'm on the bleeding edge here :))17:56
sanderqdNafai: ok, i've got the same problem there, restarting desktopcouch works: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktopcouch/Documentation/Troubleshooting17:57
NafaiOk17:57
NafaiBut what username/password do I use?17:57
sanderqdNafai: the couchdb.html page should automatically get the right username/password, you shouldn't need to worry about them17:58
NafaiAh, cool.  Sorry, being slow this morning :)17:59
* Nafai tries17:59
sanderqdno problem, it isn't all that obvious :-)17:59

rickspencer3any ideas what I can do to work around this:20:07
rickspencer3https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntuone-client/+bug/52962920:07
rickspencer3?20:07
ubottuError: This bug is private20:07
rickspencer3oh fudge20:07
lifeless'no idea' :P20:10
rickspencer3lifeless, any idea what the root cause is?20:11
rickspencer3it's something about a failure in migrating meta data20:12
rickspencer3I20:12
rickspencer3m wonder if I can convince ubuntuone that it's been freshly installed on this computer and just start fresh?20:12
lifelessrickspencer3: I can't see it - it is private :)20:13
lifelessrickspencer3: if you subscribe me, I can look at it for you20:13
rickspencer3lifeless, if I make it public would you take a look?20:14
rickspencer3heh20:14
rickspencer3hold on20:14
rickspencer3lifeless, I subscribed you in case my password is in there or something20:14
lifelesslooking20:14
lifelessok, its loading a uuid20:15
lifelessI think they are deprecated now20:15
lifelessmy guess is that you had damaged metadata, and it is thus failing to upgrade.20:16
rickspencer3lifeless, can I just delete all the meta data or something?20:16
rickspencer3or regenerate it?20:16
lifelesshttps://code.edge.launchpad.net/~verterok/ubuntuone-client/vm-refactor/+merge/18088 likne 2355 is the code thats failing20:16
lifelessYes, I think you will need to do that20:17
lifelessuhm20:17
lifelesshttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/52285920:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 522859 in ubuntuone-client "Metadata corruption (KeyError while loading metadata)" [High,Confirmed]20:18
lifeless~/.local/share/ubuntuone/syncdaemon/vm/shares seems to be the magic path; that bug suggests removing the one that is erroring only20:19
lifelessI'd backup your ubuntuone folder contents, just in case20:19
rickspencer3k20:19
rickspencer3lifeless, what is the concern, the U1 is convinced I have deleted all data from my U1 folder and so deletes everything in the cloud?20:20
lifelessyes20:20
lifelessthis has happened in the past20:20
rickspencer3ok20:20
rickspencer3it's only 622 megs to copy ;)20:21
lifelessNot saying its likely here, and its up to you to consider whether that outcome would actually disturb you :)20:21
rickspencer3yeah20:21
rickspencer3we need a back up solution to go with U1 I guess20:21
lifeless\o/20:21
rickspencer3lifeless, so just delete ~/.local/share/ubuntuone/syncdaemon/vm/shares20:21
rickspencer3?20:21
* rickspencer3 is too lazy to read bugs :)20:22
lifelessyou want to delete 617e813d-0891-47b6-b9d4-c5719a4703af under that20:22
rickspencer3yeah, I read the bug :)20:22
lifelesswhich will be in a folder 6/17/ or so20:22
rickspencer3lifeless, just delete the file, or the whole dir tree starting at 6?20:23
lifelessAIUI just the file20:23
lifelessmay need to do this a couple of times.20:23
rickspencer3*sigh*20:24
rickspencer3what if I just delete all the dirs under shares?20:24
lifelessI guess all the metadat will be gone, and you'll have to resync everything from the cloud20:24
rickspencer3hmmm20:24
rickspencer3will not want to be on 3g for that ;)20:24
rickspencer3*sigh*20:27
rickspencer3lifeless, so I deleted all the keys causing problems, and am now hitting a different error20:30
lifeless\o/20:30
rickspencer3  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ubuntuone/syncdaemon/volume_manager.py", line 1343, in _upgrade_share_to_volume20:30
rickspencer3    if share.path == self._root_dir or share.id == '':20:30
rickspencer3if I print path, it looks like this:20:31
rickspencer3{'path': '/home/rick/Ubuntu One', 'node_id': '48647947-4a4a-45df-8e24-707217b9347f', 'type': 'Root', 'volume_id': ''}20:31
rickspencer3I'm wondering if the code that I am hitting in volume_manager.py needs to be updated?20:31
lifelessI'm not sure here20:31
rickspencer3ij20:32
rickspencer3ok20:32
lifelessthe pyar folk should be around20:32
rickspencer3I'll dink with it20:32
lifelesslets have a look20:32
rickspencer3lifeless, I "fixed it" by hacking this in in line 1341:20:45
rickspencer3if type(share) is dict:20:45
rickspencer3return Shared(volume_id=share["volume_id"],node_id=share["node_id"])20:45
lifelessnice20:45
rickspencer3although I assume I will be going to hell for such a pathetic work around ;)20:45
lifelessif your package is up to date; might want to submit a patch :)20:45
rickspencer3oh?20:46
lifelesswell, if it works, it works.20:46
rickspencer3I doubt it's by design that sometimes through share is of type dict and sometimes of type _Share20:46
lifelessI agree20:46
lifelessOTOH, working >> not working20:46
rickspencer3lol20:46
rickspencer3yeah, I think I'll submit a bug that I had to hack that in, rather than subit a patch ;)20:46
rickspencer3now i just need to tell tomboy to get all my notes, which is what I started working on an hour ago :)20:47
rickspencer3hurry for alpha software!20:47

rickspencer3how empowering that not only can I use the software while it's still in pre-release, but I can also see the code and fix bugs!20:58
lifelesswas that not part of the culture?20:59
rickspencer3lifeless, yes, of course20:59
rickspencer3I just wanted to say in case some reading my scroll back thought I was bitchy instead of psyched20:59
