| nomnex | Is somebody using a Wiki around here? dokuwiki or moinmoin? Need advice | 04:05 |
| nomnex | new question can you explain the function of the charactere ` ex. in php scripts | 04:38 |
| PabloRubianes | nomnex: moinmoin is whar the Ubuntu wiki uses... it's easy to write on it. | 04:45 |
| PabloRubianes | the other question i don't know | 04:45 |
| nomnex | PabloRubianes, yes, moinmoin looks good on screen, do you or have you hosted you own wiki? | 04:46 |
| PabloRubianes | nomnex, no, I just write on the Ubuntu one, never hosted a wiki before... | 04:47 |
| PabloRubianes | don't know which is easier to host | 04:47 |
| nomnex | PabloRubianes, thanks, any idea of the ` character in PHP or other scripting languages? | 04:48 |
| PabloRubianes | nomnex, what you need to do with a stress? | 04:48 |
| nomnex | PabloRubianes, so it's called a "stress" now I can seach for explanations thanks | 04:50 |
| PabloRubianes | nomnex, in common languaje that's a stress... spanish use it example "Día" | 04:51 |
| PabloRubianes | i am not sure or having saw that kind of stress on PHP but i am just a beginner on script programming | 04:52 |
| nomnex | PabloRubianes, when use to illustrate an explanation, do you have any idea of the use of the stress char? see example http://pastebin.com/hjYrzQPd | 04:53 |
| PabloRubianes | paultag, ping | 04:54 |
| paultag | hey PabloRubianes | 04:55 |
| PabloRubianes | hey paultag nomnex is having some problems with PHP I think you could help him better than I can ;-) | 04:56 |
| paultag | sure PabloRubianes | 04:56 |
| paultag | nomnex, what's up | 04:56 |
| nomnex | PabloRubianes, thanks | 04:56 |
| PabloRubianes | no problem! | 04:56 |
| PabloRubianes | bye guys! | 04:56 |
| paultag | later PabloRubianes | 04:57 |
| PabloRubianes | later paultag take care! | 04:57 |
| nomnex | paultag, I just have a question about the stress char ` when it is used as an example (non code), can you take a look at the pastbin above, last line | 04:57 |
| paultag | sure | 04:58 |
| paultag | One second | 04:59 |
| nomnex | paultag, thanks | 04:59 |
| paultag | ok nomnex, so do you not want to escape strings when writing that? Why use the ''' ? | 05:01 |
| nomnex | paultag, my question is what difference between `world` and 'word' in some manuals for non snippet of code | 05:02 |
| paultag | nomnex, Ahha | 05:02 |
| paultag | nomnex, `foo` infers a command ( in some cases ) otherwise you can read it as the same as 'foo' | 05:02 |
| nomnex | paultag, so `sometext` will indicate a command, I got it now | 05:03 |
| paultag | nomnex, that's by tradition only :) | 05:03 |
| paultag | it comes from bash nomnex -- FOO=`echo "Hai"` will store the output of echo "Hai" to $FOO in bash | 05:04 |
| nomnex | in the current example `---Old project 2 in my past bin, does it has a purpose or indication | 05:04 |
| paultag | no, that's to make it pretty nomnex | 05:04 |
| paultag | nomnex, it makes it look like a tree | 05:05 |
| nomnex | paultag, `echo "Hai"`I got it | 05:05 |
| nomnex | paultag, it makes it look like a tree, explain, the sub-dir project 1 has |-- | 05:06 |
| nomnex | shouldn't project 2 be |-- too? | 05:06 |
| nomnex | paultag, or ` mean another sub-level? | 05:07 |
| paultag | nomnex, it means a new sub-level | 05:07 |
| paultag | Foo | 05:07 |
| paultag | |--> One | 05:07 |
| paultag | |--> Two | 05:08 |
| paultag | `--> Three | 05:08 |
| paultag | makes it look nice :) | 05:08 |
| nomnex | paultag, thanks, it that a convention or case by case? | 05:08 |
| paultag | nomnex, preface of the documenter | 05:08 |
| nomnex | paultag, do you have a link where I can find these usages | 05:09 |
| paultag | nomnex, fraid not, it's usually just case by case | 05:09 |
| nomnex | I see, what would it be for Four? | 05:09 |
| paultag | nomnex, the ` ? | 05:10 |
| nomnex | yes | 05:10 |
| paultag | nomnex, treat it as decoration or as a ', or " | 05:10 |
| nomnex | okay so whatever would do in the case | 05:10 |
| nomnex | paultag, thanks | 05:11 |
| paultag | nomnex, sure | 05:12 |

| grepFu | Hi I'm having some major issues with install dovecot | 15:41 |
| grepFu | I'm following the tutorials in "The Official Ubuntu Server Book" and have got the part about setting up a mail server, and installing dovecot... I can't install it, I was instructed to try to remove it, and no both apt-get remove and apt-get install spit out errors. | 15:42 |
| nigelb | grepFu: can you pastebin the errors here. I'm no sure I know whats wrong. but someone who knows can take a look | 15:44 |
| grepFu | http://pastebin.com/mzfHRJnK | 15:45 |
| The_Flower_Man | chmod: cannot access `/var/run/dovecot': No such file or directory | 15:46 |
| nigelb | The_Flower_Man: nice nickname ;) | 15:47 |
| grepFu | The_Flower_Man : Didn't know what / if I should create it | 15:48 |
| The_Flower_Man | What do you mean you cannot install it? Something like: sudo aptitude install dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d | 15:50 |
| grepFu | The paistbin is the output I get. | 15:50 |
| The_Flower_Man | Hmmm | 15:51 |
| nigelb | grepFu: why are you using the -f flag? | 15:51 |
| grepFu | doing apt-get but same difference. | 15:51 |
| grepFu | The 3 things that strike out are | 15:51 |
| grepFu | Not replacing deleted config file /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf | 15:51 |
| grepFu | chmod: cannot access `/var/run/dovecot': No such file or directory | 15:51 |
| grepFu | dpkg: error processing dovecot-common (--configure): | 15:51 |
| grepFu | Which is depressing | 15:51 |
| nigelb | grepFu: what release of Ubuntu are you running? | 15:52 |
| grepFu | saw it on another tutorial, well someone had the same problem, but that thread ended in 2008, and no body got back to them. | 15:52 |
| grepFu | 8.04.2 LTS | 15:52 |
| grepFu | If I don't use -f the output is the same. | 15:53 |
| grepFu | Its a dedicated server, I've done this before, and never had any problems running apt-get install on these packages. | 15:54 |
| grepFu | SSL wasn't working, so I was told to remove dovecot and postfix and reinstall, which I did, and now dovecot won't install. | 15:55 |
| nigelb | my knowledge of server packages isn't enough to guide you from here. sorry :( | 15:56 |
| grepFu | :'( | 15:56 |
| grepFu | The server book is pretty basic, not massively impressed with the email conf stuff, they seem to miss out alot. | 15:56 |
| phillw | grepFu: are you after setting up a mail server ? | 16:16 |
| grepFu | trying to | 16:16 |
| grepFu | Was following the official server book, and got in a bit of a muddle. | 16:17 |
| phillw | do you want clamav as your anti-viral agent, and anti-spam filtering ?# | 16:17 |
| grepFu | Not can't install devcot | 16:17 |
| grepFu | covecot | 16:17 |
| grepFu | *dovecot... also I can't type. | 16:17 |
| phillw | hmm, you maight want to have a look at http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ It's nicely lain out and is ideal for a server | 16:20 |
| phillw | i set it up & it worked straight away... I was suprised :-D | 16:20 |
| phillw | I used release notes 8, as was not ready to start playing with clud stuff (I'm waiting for release notes 10 for that) | 16:22 |
| phillw | cluc=cloud | 16:22 |
| grepFu | Yeah problem I have is I can't install Dovecot | 16:24 |
| grepFu | http://pastebin.com/MGNwf2W6 | 16:24 |
| phillw | grepFu: have you manually deleted any of the dovecote stuff from a previous failed installation ? | 16:27 |
| st4aluck | Could somebody help me to configure tripwire? I installed it but something goes wrong | 18:01 |

| seidos | I didn't know that either | 21:32 |
| seidos | hey, as a beginner I have a question | 21:32 |
| seidos | why doesn't yank work in vim for me? | 21:32 |
| seidos | I hit yy and it doesn't copy to the frame buffer | 21:32 |
| seidos | is that right? frame buffer? | 21:32 |
| seidos | well buffer at any rate | 21:33 |
| phillw | hi seidos, if you pop over to the communuty documentation on vim at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VimHowto that has an introduction and links to the full manuals for vim | 21:58 |
| seidos | phillw, you really think an answer to my question is in the full manuals? | 21:58 |
| seidos | I didn't know it was case sensitive | 22:07 |
| seidos | yG seems to work, but yg doesn't | 22:07 |
| phillw | seidos: I don't use vim, as no-one had answered in 20mins, that's the best I could do. | 22:23 |
| phillw | i use nano | 22:24 |
| seidos | phillw, ohhhhh. I like the yank command in vim but it wasn't working | 22:24 |
| seidos | I think I figured it out though, partially because of your help. thank you | 22:24 |
| phillw | seidos: yw | 22:26 |

| ghostofmybrain_ | so I do wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/mumble/files/Mumble/1.2.2/murmur-static_x86-1.2.2.tar.lzma | 22:50 |
| ghostofmybrain_ | but all it gives me for a download is index.html | 22:50 |
| ghostofmybrain_ | what am I doing wrong? | 22:50 |
| nhandler | ghostofmybrain_: See if you can use http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mumble/Mumble/1.2.2/murmur-static_x86-1.2.2.tar.lzma?use_mirror=iweb | 22:53 |
| ghostofmybrain_ | that gives a 404 | 22:55 |
| ghostofmybrain_ | oops, mistake period in there | 22:55 |
| ghostofmybrain_ | sorry I can't type. That worked. Thanks. So I was just using a bad link or something? | 22:57 |
