| crb | hi, anyone got any advice on page allocation failure errors | 10:05 |
| crb | as per http://pastie.org/1183944 | 10:05 |
| soren | crb: Maybe you're out of swap. | 10:09 |
| soren | crb: This is on EC2, right? | 10:09 |
| crb | Yep | 10:10 |
| soren | A micro instance? | 10:10 |
| crb | nope, c1.medium | 10:11 |
| crb | Mem: 1781976k total, 1463264k used, 318712k free, 193556k buffers | 10:11 |
| crb | Swap: 917496k total, 60760k used, 856736k free, 439176k cached | 10:11 |
| crb | for example | 10:11 |
| crb | best I've found in other bug reports is bad drivers | 10:14 |
| crb | soren: any ideas? | 10:28 |
| erichammond | crb: Are you getting these errors on multiple instances? Have you tried moving to a new instance in case it's a problem with the underlying host? | 10:28 |
| crb | erichammond: Yes, I'm getting them on four instances across two AZs | 10:29 |
| erichammond | crb: :( | 10:29 |
| crb | they're under quite a bit of load, they're our production web servers | 10:29 |
| crb | indications from other bugs suggest it's when the kernel can't allocate RAM for connection tracking/netfilter | 10:29 |
| crb | it /might/ be fixed in 2.6.35, but those error reports generally relate to a specific NIC driover | 10:30 |
| crb | also reported here: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/thread.jspa?threadID=43939 | 10:31 |
| soren | crb: You can expand the amount of space the kernel can use for nf contracking. | 10:32 |
| erichammond | crb: What Ubuntu release? | 10:33 |
| crb | esh: 10.04 | 10:34 |
| soren | crb: cat /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_count | 10:34 |
| soren | You really should be getting a better error message if that's the limit you're hitting, though. | 10:34 |
| soren | (That's the current count, not the limit) | 10:35 |
| crb | not there | 10:35 |
| soren | *blink* | 10:35 |
| soren | The file is missing? | 10:35 |
| crb | I don't think thats my specific error, thats what I found in reading a similar backtrace related to madwifi | 10:35 |
| crb | I doubt I'm running conntrack | 10:36 |
| crb | these are just web server nodes | 10:36 |
| soren | Ah, right, if iptables aren't loaded at all, that makes sense. | 10:36 |
| crb | my pastie doesn't refer to conntrack, though it does refer to nf_hook_slow, nf_iterate | 10:36 |
| crb | i'm assuming nf == netfilter | 10:36 |
| soren | It is. | 10:37 |

| Seidr | Heya - you might see this question alot but I've got to ask it anyway. Are there any known issues in with Ubuntu when using ISPConfig 3 and Jailkit (version 2.12, most recent version) - as I can't for the life of me get new users to be created jailed! :( | 13:58 |
| Seidr | I followed the Perfect Server guide for Ubuntu 10.04 guide on HowtoForge | 13:59 |
| Seidr | The main issue I seem to be having is the shell is always set to /bin/false, not /usr/sbin/jk_chrootsh when a new user is set as Jailed | 14:06 |
| yellabs | hello all | 14:34 |
| Seidr2 | Hi yellabs | 14:35 |
| yellabs | what would be the option to install ubuntu server , to run on one computer and , then multi virtual machines on that pc | 14:35 |
| === Seidr2 is now known as Seidr | ||
| Seidr | I can't say I've had a whole load of experience in running VMs on a server, but I have used VMWare in a limited capacity before | 14:38 |
| yellabs | or in other words, the best way to use ubuntu for virtualisation | 14:38 |
| yellabs | esx server ? | 14:38 |
| Seidr | Someone else might be able to give you a better answer though - if anyone else is awake that is. I'm waiting for someone to answer myself | 14:38 |
| yellabs | Seidr, and what was your question ? i might know that | 14:39 |
| Seidr | It's regarding ISPConfing, Jailkit(2.12) and Ubuntu 10.04. I followed the Perfect Server guide on HowtoForge to the letter (including installing Jailkit BEFORE ISPConfig) yet any user I create jailed from ISPConfig has their shell set as /bin/false | 14:40 |
| Seidr | there doesn't seem to be any interaction between ISPConfig and Jailkit at all going on in the logs | 14:40 |
| joschi | yellabs: vmware esx is another operating system. you probably mean vmware server | 14:43 |
| joschi | yellabs: what kind of virtualization do you want? os-level virtualization (e.g. openvz), paravirtualization (e.g. xen) or full virtualization (e.g. virtualbox, kvm, vmware server)? | 14:43 |
| yellabs | i thought kvm would be closer to ubuntu | 14:45 |
| yellabs | ISPConfing, Jailkit(2.12) and Ubuntu 10.04. , thats a hard one | 14:46 |
| Seidr | I was afraid of that - the guide calls for 2.11, however the changes between 2.11 and 2.12 are very minor so I doubt it's a compatibility issue | 14:47 |
| Seidr | especially as I'm seeing no errors during ISPConfig setup and no errors in the auth log | 14:47 |
| yellabs | i think you followed this tutorial ? http://howtoforge.net/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-3-p4 | 14:48 |
| Seidr | that's correct | 14:48 |
| yellabs | and you are not the only one with the error , http://serverfault.com/questions/185012/ubuntu-10-04-pefect-server-jailkit-2-12-not-working | 14:49 |
| yellabs | but there are few who have attempted to do it | 14:49 |
| Seidr | Hah - uhm, that would be me :) | 14:49 |
| yellabs | hehe | 14:49 |
| Seidr | I'm just about to go through the process on a VM, to be sure I've not made a stupid mistake somewhere | 14:49 |
| Seidr | (it was late at night when I setup the server, so it's entirely possible) | 14:49 |
| ttx | SpamapS: ping | 14:50 |
| Seidr | but I've even gone back, removed ISPConfig and made doubly sure Jailkit is installed before proceeding again, so I'm stumped | 14:50 |
| yellabs | maybe the best thing, although it takes time, is to find out who wrote the tutorial and e-mail him / her | 14:50 |
| Seidr | Mm - agreed - once I've gone through this VM setup and confirmed the problem I think I'll do just that. | 14:50 |
| Seidr | Thanks for your time yellabs | 14:51 |
| yellabs | or install it again , but using the old 2.11, as said in tutorial | 14:52 |
| yellabs | god luck | 14:53 |
| yellabs | good luck * | 14:53 |
| yellabs | bye bye | 14:53 |

| kinygos | i'm looking for help with a support(ish) question on ubuntu server | 16:55 |
| kinygos | i heard that ubuntu server 9 is coming to the end of its support lifetime...will it be challenging to upgrade a server running ubuntu 9.04 that's hosting a web application? | 16:56 |
| kinygos | i'm about to go live with a new web application, but the hosting company only provides ubuntu 9.04 on their dedicated servers...i'm concerned that if something comes up that forces me to upgrade ubuntu, i'll be stuck as it will be in production and every minute of downtime will be costly | 16:58 |
| thesheff17 | kinygos: best bet would be to install 9.04 on another server, configure your software, do a dist upgrade and see what happens | 17:00 |
| thesheff17 | kinygos: don't do it directly on production. | 17:01 |
| thesheff17 | kinygos: upgrading the os is the easy part..making sure your application still works is the hard part. | 17:01 |

| ziarkaen | As .img files are not produced any more, what is the best way to install latest server edition via USB? | 19:02 |
| mathiaz | ziarkaen: you can create bootable usb drive with usb-creator | 19:03 |
| mathiaz | ziarkaen: and a -server iso | 19:03 |
| ziarkaen | Sorry, I'm not running Ubuntu; I'm using another distro. | 19:04 |
| ziarkaen | Is that utility released as source tarball? | 19:04 |
| mathiaz | zul: nope | 19:06 |
| mathiaz | zul: I haven't reproduce the issue yet | 19:06 |
| mathiaz | zul: could you start up a test system that is not working and turn upstart debug on? | 19:07 |
| mathiaz | zul: the goal is to check why dovecot fails to restart | 19:07 |
| zul | mathiaz: sure but you should able to do a sudo start dovecot and then sudo stop dovecot as well to reproduce it | 19:07 |
| mathiaz | zul: well - I tried - and it works as expected | 19:08 |
| zul | mathiaz: did you have postfix-dovecot installed? | 19:08 |
| mathiaz | zul: yes - I've install dovecot-postfix | 19:08 |
| zul | from lucid? | 19:08 |
| mathiaz | zul: note that this is a brand new maverick install | 19:08 |
| RoyK | mathiaz: heh - you're playing with fire | 19:09 |
| zul | mathiaz: please try the upgrade from lucid with dovecot-postfix installed and postfix configured | 19:09 |
| mathiaz | hggdh: is your system also an upgrade from lucid? | 19:10 |
| mathiaz | hggdh: is your *dovecot* system also an upgrade from lucid? | 19:10 |
| mathiaz | zul: could you compare your lucid dovecot configuration to maverick configuration? | 19:10 |
| mathiaz | zul: in /etc/dovecot/ ? | 19:10 |
| mathiaz | zul: there may be a change during the upgrade? | 19:10 |
| zul | mathiaz: yes it prompted for a chance | 19:11 |
| zul | change even | 19:11 |
| mathiaz | zul: so the old configuration files should be laying around on the upgraded system | 19:11 |
| mathiaz | zul: as .dpkg-{old, new} | 19:11 |
| mathiaz | zul: what has changed? | 19:11 |
| zul | mathiaz: just a sec | 19:12 |
| hggdh | mathiaz: yes, I upgraded it from Lucid some 3 months ago | 19:12 |
| mathiaz | hggdh: ok | 19:12 |
| hggdh | mathiaz: and I had to hand-stitch the Lucid config for Maverick | 19:13 |

| uvirtbot | holstein: Error: "^" is not a valid command. | 19:19 |
| ziarkaen | holstein, That seems like a specific installation problem; I'm more after an official method to install ubuntu-server from another distro with usb. | 19:21 |
| holstein | ziarkaen: can you use unetbootin on that distro? | 19:22 |
| ziarkaen | holstein, Yes. | 19:23 |
| holstein | i havent tried it personally, but i have suggested it with the ubuntustudio iso | 19:23 |
| holstein | another alternate installer | 19:23 |
| holstein | and i was told it worked | 19:23 |
| ziarkaen | holstein, Thanks. | 19:25 |
| jdstrand | smoser: last question. looking at http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/query/lucid/desktop/daily.current.txt I see 'ebs' and 'instance-store'. what is the difference? (I know ebs is elastic block storage, but don't know what that means in the report) | 19:31 |
| smoser | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/Images has a *little* more info on what you can find there. | 19:32 |
| smoser | but basically that is the 'root store' . there are two types of instances, ebs root and instance-store. | 19:32 |
| smoser | ebs root has root filesystem on a ebs volume | 19:32 |
| jdstrand | that is what I was thinking | 19:32 |
| smoser | instance-store has root filesystem on the instance store (ie, when system goes away, so does the root fs) | 19:33 |
| jdstrand | smoser: so ebs is going to be more expensive? | 19:33 |
| smoser | you pay 10 cents per GB/Month of provisioned storage | 19:33 |
| smoser | and you pay per IO ops also onto ebs | 19:33 |
| jdstrand | k | 19:33 |
| smoser | so, yes, it will be $1.50 / month + IO ops | 19:34 |
| jdstrand | smoser: thanks again | 19:34 |

| max2 | hey all i'm having an issue with raid45 - i keep getting : "raid45" is not in the kernel - how can i fix this so my raid5 works? thanks - im installing ubuntu server 10 amd64 | 21:03 |
| jdstrand | smoser: yes, it did. I got confused for a second forgetting that the console is not updated immediately | 21:04 |
| ChmEarl | max2, do you want to use mdmonitor and software raid? or do you have an onboard fakeraid chip? | 21:05 |
| max2 | <ChmEarl> I have an intel board with SATA Raid - and 3x 1GB drives | 21:05 |
| smoser | jdstrand, yeah, thats a pita | 21:05 |
| jdstrand | smoser: sorry about me being a pita-- it's been a little while since I cranked up an instance :) | 21:06 |
| max2 | in the raid bio config i setup a RAID5 for the 3 drives - but i keep getting "is not in the kernel" error | 21:06 |
| ChmEarl | max2, then lucid-server might be missing the dmraid | 21:06 |
| max2 | http://forums.citrix.com/message.jspa?messageID=1016922 | 21:06 |
| smoser | jdstrand, no problem. | 21:06 |
| max2 | its a bug that has been an issue for over 2 years | 21:06 |
| JavaAtom | Similar question -- can I put together a software raid (via mdadm) and use multiple hard drives + a partition that is slightly smaller without reducing the usage of each disk to the smaller size? | 21:06 |
| ChmEarl | raid45 is the dmraid stuff | 21:06 |
| ChmEarl | max2, try the alternate CD | 21:07 |
| max2 | <ChmEarl> why? i just got this iso off the site | 21:07 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: only when using raid0 (which isnt really raid) | 21:07 |
| max2 | its the only x64 iso avail | 21:07 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: So I can't do a raid-5 of sorts like that? | 21:07 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: raid1/5/10/etc all require equal sized members | 21:08 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: ahhhh shazbot. | 21:08 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: and thus will use the largest *common* size available | 21:08 |
| JavaAtom | well, dropping 30G off of each 1TB drive isn't *too* bad, you think? | 21:08 |
| JavaAtom | (I've got six drives) | 21:09 |
| max2 | no one knows how to get raid5 working? | 21:09 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: why would you chop off a part of only 1 disk? | 21:09 |
| _ruben | max2: unless you plan to dual boot with windows or something similar, forget about the raid bios and go with plain software raid (mdadm) instead | 21:09 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: because one of the discs has a normal partition scheme (within about 30GB) and then the rest was used for an LVM partition, which got lumped together with five other 1TB drives to give nearly 6TB of usable space. | 21:10 |
| max2 | <_ruben> so how should my STAT drives be setup then? | 21:10 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: I'd like to use the remaining 900GB on that first disk without installing the whole OS to the raid. | 21:10 |
| max2 | isnt hardware raid better then software raid? | 21:11 |
| _ruben | max2: fakeraid isnt hardware raid | 21:11 |
| JavaAtom | max2: It's supposed to be, but software raid can do interesting things. | 21:11 |
| max2 | why will raid5 not work? | 21:11 |
| _ruben | hardware raid >> software raid >> fakeraid | 21:11 |
| max2 | ? | 21:11 |
| _ruben | dunno, never cared for fakeraid myself | 21:11 |
| _ruben | software raid tends to outperform it easily | 21:12 |
| max2 | so i should just set my raid sata drives as notmal drives and use LVM? | 21:12 |
| JavaAtom | hah. I just had a drive fail on that setup <re max2> | 21:13 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: personally i'd go for creating 2 raid volumes, one for os, one for storage, or just one big one, and carve up using lvm for both os and data | 21:13 |
| max2 | i just want to use raid5 with linux | 21:13 |
| max2 | why is that so hard | 21:13 |
| max2 | this sucks | 21:13 |
| _ruben | max2: lvm has nothing to do with this | 21:13 |
| Norkakn | Hi, I have an md RAID 10, with one disk that drops because of bad blocks. is there a way to use badblocks or something to get it to just map out the bad ones until we can replace the disk? | 21:13 |
| _ruben | software raid can do raid5 just fine | 21:13 |
| _ruben | my home fileserver has software raid5 over 6 1tb disks | 21:13 |
| JavaAtom | max2: See, the complaints don't help. "This sucks" is counterproductive and generally makes people like myself unhelpful. | 21:14 |
| max2 | sorry | 21:14 |
| max2 | im just frustrated because this has been a bug for years | 21:14 |
| JavaAtom | max2: No worries. I feel your frustration. | 21:14 |
| _ruben | max2: configure bios as normal sata disks, and in ubuntu server installer configure the software raid, and then lvm on top of the software raid | 21:14 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: Maybe I can do what you just suggested to max2... | 21:14 |
| _ruben | max2: the real bug is hardware vendors still shipping fakeraid chipsets | 21:14 |
| max2 | so i should set all my disks to "non-raid" | 21:14 |
| _ruben | max2: yes | 21:14 |
| _ruben | max2: and then let the os (ubuntu) do the raid part | 21:15 |
| max2 | okay ill do that | 21:15 |
| _ruben | easier to maintain, and most likely better performance as well | 21:15 |
| _ruben | Norkakn: not that im aware of, i'd just pull the disk and get a replacement asap | 21:16 |
| Norkakn | _ruben: thanks. I remember them thinking about adding support for it, but I'm not seeing anything about it going live | 21:16 |
| _ruben | Norkakn: ic, i must admit i dont follow the software raid (mdadm) development very closely | 21:17 |
| _ruben | ugh .. writing ip addressing schemes is a pita .. ipv4: too little ip addresses .. ipv6: too much ip addresses :p | 21:20 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: heh -- I'm in the middle of a migration from 192.168.0.0/24 to a 10.72.0.0/16 | 21:22 |
| _ruben | JavaAtom: smart move :) | 21:23 |
| _ruben | cant wait to get rid of our 10.0.0.0/24 .. it's almost as bad as using 192.168.{0.1}.0/24 ;) | 21:23 |
| JavaAtom | _ruben: Yeah, well, when you have 8 ip addresses free and you hire three people... that should throw up some flags. :P | 21:23 |
| _ruben | haha | 21:24 |
| JavaAtom | ah hell, what's the netmask 255.255.0.0 end up being? | 21:24 |
| JavaAtom | slash-something? | 21:24 |
| _ruben | that'd be /16 | 21:24 |
| JavaAtom | ah, that's what I thought. | 21:24 |
| * RoyK renicks failover to fallover | 21:39 | |
| failover | \o/ | 21:43 |
| max2 | so is it a good idea to use LVM with software raid5? | 21:57 |
| _ruben | max2: i'd say it is | 22:01 |
| _ruben | it adds a layer of flexibility | 22:01 |
| _ruben | (back in the day one couldnt partition mdadm volumes, so it was either building a lot of arrays, or use lvm to carve up an array) | 22:01 |
| max2 | so i setup my software raid5 and then setup lvm | 22:02 |
| _ruben | that's what i tend to do, yes | 22:04 |
| _ruben | grub1 (not sure about grub2) cant have /boot on lvm though, i also tend to create a seperate raid volume for /boot (without lvm) | 22:05 |
| === _TechAway_ is now known as _Techie_ | ||
| sourcemaker_ | is there a good wiki how to install and setup PROCMAIL + IMAP + FETCHMAIL? | 22:28 |
| max2 | should i include all my partitions in my lvm group? | 22:31 |
| fluvvell | can anyone clarify when chrooting, when is it necessary to mount /dev/ and /dev/pts and /sys : I've been doing this but can't remember why. | 23:13 |
