=== twister004_ is now known as twister004 === twister004_ is now known as twister004 [01:10] Anybody here successfully launched Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Server in a Xen DomU, on a non-pvops Xen 4 host (e.g., OpenSUSE 11.3). Initial/Stage1 install is fine, but a reboot & attempted launch of LTS Guest via pygrub, I get: ""Boot loader didn't return any data!". Not any problems for non-Ubuntu guests. Suspect pvops-related _sumthin_ ... [01:29] I need some help with port forwarding. I'm just trying to forward a port to another computer. [01:30] Here are my rules: http://pastebin.com/mbVGzZbN [01:58] Having a problem with "Keep Aligned" setting on gnome changing back to set on every reboot. Anyone know how to fix this? === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [02:57] Question..... I just flushed my firewall ruleset. And it is set to allow local traffic only. But for some reason Samba is not allowing local connections so what do I do ? Sudo -A -s 192.168.1.0/24 ACCEPT === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [05:10] I have a svn folder with perms drwxr-sr-x . My user is in the group that owns the folder yet SVN commit fails with permission error. any clues? [05:12] did you try logging in/out with that user or restarting apache? [05:12] sometimes takes a refresh/relogin for the groups to update [05:12] hmm well im sshing into the server. do i need to disconnect and reconnect? [05:13] yep [05:13] ok lemme try. thanks [05:13] hth [05:14] nope. that did not work [05:14] wait, not its unknown command [05:15] oh, no thats xchat telling me Uknown command [05:15] heh [05:15] I have a user "svn" in a group "svn" [05:16] I have changed the own of the svn folder to user svn o.O [05:16] that will work [05:16] drwxr-sr-x [05:16] = owner read/write, group read only, world read only [05:16] also, did you mean make that setguid? [05:17] ah, actuayeah [05:17] sticky bit [05:17] i can successuflly comit while on the server but not from my client [05:17] i always thought sticky was +t for some reason [05:18] ok, how are you commiting, over DAV right? [05:18] using apache? [05:18] Right [05:18] you might need to add the www-data user to that group === twister004_ is now known as twister004 [05:18] cause apache's going to try and write to that dir on your behalf when you connect via it [05:18] ah, so i need to add apache to the svn group? [05:19] yes [05:19] thats usermod -a -G user group right? [05:20] usermod -a -G group user [05:20] right thanks [05:21] also, I'm not 100% but i think you may need to "chmod g+w " on your repository dir to allow apache to write [05:21] oh wait a minute, user apache does not exist.. did they change the username to apache2 ? [05:21] i'm not 100% on the way that the sticky bit works [05:21] if it's ubuntu, it's www-data iirc [05:21] yeah ubuntu server [05:21] yeah, the user is www-data [05:22] same error. maybe an apache restart? [05:23] yes apache restart [05:23] can you also show me the permissions of your svn dir [05:24] drwxrwsr-x [05:24] should work ;) [05:25] still same perm error. im going to restart my client and recreate the svn folder [05:26] ok the new svn has perm r [05:26] www-data is right [05:26] drwxr-sr-x [05:27] right [05:27] so if apache is part of the SVN group, and your SVN user is part of the SVN group [05:27] then you should: [05:28] chgrp -R svn [05:28] chmod -R g+w [05:28] which will recursively set the files to be owned by group SVN, then recursively allow the group to make changes [05:30] your next problem will probably be that files are being created in the svn directory with permissions based on whoever does the saving, which is a new kettle of fish [05:30] ok let me try that. the weird thing is i can check out the repo but i cannot commit to it (via dav) [05:30] I think I solved that with a DAV parameter somwhere [05:31] i added www-data to the svn group but still cannot commit via dav [05:31] let me try your chgrp options\ [05:33] ok so i tried what you just suggested, but still no joy. i logged in and out, and apache restart. [05:34] i can view the repo via http (with credentials) [05:34] right [05:35] is it your DAV configuration? [05:35] let me pull that up [05:35] chuck it in a pastebin and i'll take a look [05:35] ok tahkns [05:37] http://pastebin.com/RrC4UvDY [05:38] everything else is commented out or not needed [05:38] such as etcc [05:39] seems fine, do you have any dav-related errors in /var/log/apache2/error_log?

[05:42] who is the owner/group of /var/svn/testfolder/db/ ? [05:42] just leave it, should be timestamped [05:43] ok db looks like this [05:43] drwxrwsr-x [05:43] which is 2775 [05:43] wait, no its not [05:43] if you do "ls -ltr" it should show the user and group [05:43] both are SVN? [05:43] svn* [05:44] drwxrwsr-x root svn [05:45] everything from /var/svn down is root svn [05:46] can you paste me "cat /etc/group | grep svn" [05:46] http://pastebin.com/W0x3ch6n [05:47] wait a min, looks like www-data is not in the svn group [05:47] wtf [05:47] yep [05:48] the svn user is in the www-data grou [05:48] p [05:48] hahaha [05:48] thats what happened, i had the backwords when i did the usermod [05:48] sorry bout that [05:48] np [05:48] usermod -a -G svn www-data [05:48] i think is what you need [05:49] yeah tahts the one. lemme try a log out/in and apache restart [05:49] sorry, back [05:50] excellent! thanks a lot! im up and going now [05:50] man, its rare you dont get noob killers when you ask a question [05:51] haha [05:51] anyways, thanks again.

Only the prerouting? [15:38] yep [15:39] I dunno why you would run default policy accept on a firewall though [15:39] with internet access [15:41] patdk-wk: Well we're not really terribly in need of a firewall anyway. All I really want is to be able to easily forward traffic. [15:41] New bug: #626855 in openldap (main) "package slapd 2.4.21-0ubuntu5.3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/626855 [15:41] patdk-wk: I notice that the number of packets for the prerouting and forward rules are > 0 - does this mean they are working-ish? Also, they are different from each other. Is this a problem? [15:42] they mean two totally different things [15:43] it looks fine to me though [15:44] patdk-wk: OK. So the traffic is supposedly making it through? [15:44] ya, as far as I can tell [15:44] use tcpdump [15:44] patdk-wk: What can I do, apart from netstat -ta, which doesn't show me any such traffic, to see what it happening on the computer? [15:44] ok, tcpdump [15:44] on the gateway or the endpoint? [15:44] heh, everything :) [15:44] first on your external interface [15:45] then internal interface [15:45] then on 10.0.0.88 [15:46] Moin patdk-wk [15:47] patdk-wk: holy heck - it's a jungle!! :-) Can I grep 8000 and get what I want? [15:48] sure [15:50] Does ubuntu update packages during releases? Ieee... will lucid server ever have a newer version of samba than 3.4.7 ? [15:50] in it's repositories of course [15:50] patdk-wk: So grepping shows me nothing that I can identify as interesting. :-\ [15:54] ssureshot, it is not likely [15:55] tcpdump -ni eth0 port 8000 [15:55] in general, updates for stable releases are governed by the SRU process (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates) [15:55] did you test it, while you had tcpdump going? [15:55] if you want newer packages for a stable release, you the right places i backports https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports [15:55] so packages are basically as is then.. I was curious just because I've had such an issue with 9.10 and samba 3.4.0.. [15:56] * patdk-wk is using samba on karmic and lucid, no issues [15:57] samba worked good but the whole point and print issue was horrible [15:57] thanks for the replies good info [15:57] hmm, I use it for printing at home [15:58] dunno about point [15:59] the whole rpc service was broken in 3.4.0 with point and print ... wasn't fixed untill 3.4.5.. I researched that for a few weeks looking for a resolution .. [16:00] ssureshot, the other option, if you need something newer or older is to do a rebuild of the source for yourself. you can do this locally, or use PPAs. [16:00] ie, that would allow you to grab maverick's version and build for lucid, or some other combination [16:00] oh heh, strange [16:01] running lucid, pointnprint works for my wifes win7 laptop [16:01] I don't use samba for printing at work, so wouldn't know about more than just that one [16:01] yup lucid works great :) was fixed [16:01] I actually pulled samba from the lucid repository [16:02] to make it work lol [16:02] karmic is almost dead now anyways [16:02] patdk-wk: OK!

Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. [17:05] issues normal come into the dependencies [17:05] patdk-wk: thats not really good advice [17:05] yeah I got that. There is just a couple apps that I needed.

Usually end up doing alot of googling [17:07] patdk-wk, is your system lucid or maverick? [17:07] both [17:08] I have like 10 hoardy systems, probably 15 lucid, and 2 maverick [17:08] ah ok, cool thanks. [17:08] hoary or hardy?

[17:18] SpamapS: I am trying to set up a (temporary) web server on a computer inside my network. I'm trying to forward some port (any port, really, but 8000 for now) to that computer. With a lot of awesome help from patdk-wk, I have determined that packets are now making it into that computer. However, the connection is timing out. http://pastebin.com/657BazSt [17:19] jMyles: does the web server have a firewall configured? [17:21] SpamapS: Well, I ran tcpdump and verified that packets were incoming. I even installed firestarter (which I think we're all lukewarm about) and watched as the packets came in and were blocked, and then enabled service for port 8000. [17:22] SpamapS: I still get messages like this (both input and output, input shown here): Input Dropped: IN=eth1 OUT= MAC=00:40:f4:58:73:8b:00:16:cb:9d:8b:da:08:00 SRC=10.0.0.88 DST=10.0.0.46 LEN=52 TOS=0x10 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=16170 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=36693 DPT=22 WINDOW=1879 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0 [17:22] SpamapS: That's on the server. [17:24] that message is so unrelated, it's about port 22, not port 8000 [17:25] maverick daily build CD is now i386 only. No amd64 for 2 days [17:25] Ahh, DPT. I just learned something. [17:25] jMyles: DPT=22 means ssh [17:25] * SpamapS expresses his lag shame [17:32] patdk-wk and I determined that the packets were getting here, on time and in good shape, but it just doesn't work the same as it does if I access it from another computer on the network. It's stone dead. [17:36] as far as I know, he has no service on port 8000 [17:36] or, some firewall on it is blocking the replies [17:36] ChmEarl: We're in beta freeze so rebuilds are done as needed, not daily.

[17:57] hallyn, where do you do development of qemu-kvm ? [17:57] ie, if i want to propose a change, where should i grab source from ? [18:07] hey guys. in ubuntu 10.04 is there some framework to manage a bunch of servers at once? for example I want to run a certain command or sequence of commands on say 30 servers, not necessarily with cssh. something like: put scripts somewhere, upload script with rsync, run script on servers, get result in mail or something [18:09] cemc: puppet [18:13] zul: thanks, I'll take a look [18:17] smoser: you mean upstream? git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git [18:17] smoser: our tree is at lp:ubuntu/qemu-kvm [18:18] hallyn, thats what i wanted, i guess. I was wondering if you had a middle resting place for development of the packaged versions. [18:19] ie, like the eucalyptus branch at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-virt [18:19] anyway. [18:20] next question: are you expecting a new version of qemu-kvm for maverick ? hallyn [18:21] i'm asking because if you are, then likely bug 619302 will be fixed magically. but if not, we should get a fix for it (and someone has attached patch to bug). [18:21] Launchpad bug 619302 in qemu-kvm "kvm -initrd 'file' dumps core if 'file' does not exist" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/619302 [18:27] zul: how well is this puppet integrated in ubuntu? like... does it work? :) [18:27] cemc: yes it does afaik [18:32] cemc: puppet is awesome, and works great on ubuntu. [18:33] SpamapS: the one in lucid too? 0.25.4 ? [18:36] cemc, works, but client daemon leaks a lot. [18:36] better run puppet-run than puppetd [18:38] not sure about lucid though, am mostly using 8.4 - 9.4 [18:39] smoser: hm, i wasn't planning on a new version, but it's not out of the question [18:39] by new version i meant new upstream qemu-kvm version [18:39] ie, 0.13 [18:39] right, but that's not out yet? [18:39] (or is it?) [18:39] ok. just seeinf if we were meaning the same thing. [18:40] you're much more aware of when it is due and such. [18:40] 0.12.5 is still the lastest unfort [18:40] (just pulled and checked tags) [18:40] ok. then you should probably pull that patch. [18:40] if you'd like I can push a branch and request a merge. [18:40] (the patch is both trivial and upstream) [18:41] smoser: looks fine to me [18:42] so nothing required from me ? [18:42] smoser: since i don't have upload rights yet anyway, i'd say just subscribe whatever team does the FFEs to the bug... [18:42] well, thats not a FFE [18:43] oh, true [18:43] just normal sponsorship [18:44] that's the part i still have the hardest time with. (gotta find how to do a sru for lxc for lucid too) [18:44] smoser: all right i'll create a bzr branch and propose it for merging, thx [18:45] is Daviey around ? [18:45] hallyn, well, really, you need to get PPU for qemu-kvm and lxc. [18:46] hallyn, i might suggest you put a "staging" branch in the ~ubuntu-virt team [18:46] for qemu-kvm [18:46] then you (and I and others) can push things there, and then when you request kirkland or someone to pull, they just build that. [18:47] that is what Daviey is doing foe ucalyptus and it seems to work well [18:47] do i have write access to ~ubuntu-virt? [18:49] i think so, i thought i'd seen you push to the ppa === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [18:51] smoser: i might do that then i guess === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === ivoks_dinner is now known as ivoks [19:12] help! can't get ubuntu 10.04.1 to save dns settings. just trying to use google's public dns server 8.8.8.8, but it keeps defaulting to the local router which is not running dns. [19:12] try removing the resolvconf package [19:13] delimiter, where does it resolve to after resolvconf's been removed? [19:14] you'll need to fix /etc/resolv.conf one more time after removing it [19:14] to point at 8.8.8.8 [19:14] so, save 8.8.8.8 and then remove the package? [19:15] err. A better way would be to modify your /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf file [19:16] other way around [19:16] d'oh! [19:17] pici, does modifying dhclient.conf hold settings better? [19:17] to each his own, I personally think having resolvconf running on a server a dumb idea [19:17] delimiter: Its a dependency of postfix [19:17] I just need a working dns to download packages. [19:18] no, it's only suggested by postfix [19:18] at the moment, we're pulling from isp's. [19:18] oh, rdepends didn't specify :( [19:18] tynot: Modify/edit the prepend domain-name-servers line in that file so whenever you get a new dhcp address it'll use the thing you specified there instead. [19:19] i have a static local ip [19:19] c class [19:19] oh. Then delimiter's suggestion is probably better. [19:19] Odd. [19:19] not so for our purposes [19:21] so.... change the nameserver line from 192.168.1.1 to 8.8.8.8, for instance... remove resolvconf then we're good to go? [19:22] tynot: yes [19:22] would you mind giving me the syntax to remove resolvconf package? [19:24] ttx: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/54104562/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.cobertura-maven-plugin_2.3%2Bdfsg-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz looks like it needs someone who understands a bit about maven to resolve, but would be a good FTBFS for someone to fix (would also solve some depwait too) [19:25] would you mind providing the syntax to remove resolvconf package? [19:27] #delimiter the command to remove resolvconf? [19:27] apt-get remove --purge resolvconf [19:27] --purge is optional, though [19:28] will try, RoyK, thx. === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [19:33] delimiter, Got "Package resolvconf is not installed, so not removed" Hmm. [19:34] tynot: strange [19:34] very. [19:34] delimiter: I agree with you that resolvconf makes no sense on a server... that's why postfix only suggests it [19:35]
