| xperia | hello to all. i am having big problems with installing/removing the package "proftpd". as first i cant remove it after the install as it breaks everytime with the error message "debconf: DbDriver "config": could not open /var/cache/debconf/config.dat". Reinstalling dont want to work too. can anybody help me with this problem ? | 17:05 |
| xperia | i have installed it first that way "sudo apt-get install proftpd" but after some seconds it stopped with installing the packages and outputed some error messages. it looks like i needed to install "proftpd-basic" | 17:08 |
| === zz_sailerboy is now known as sailerboy | ||
| qman__ | xperia, your problem is not directly the proftpd package, but rather your debconf system | 17:40 |
| qman__ | something is wrong with the package manager | 17:40 |
| qman__ | I don't know exactly how to fix it, but that file is a part of the package manager, and until that problem is resolved, you will not be able to install, remove, upgrade, or otherwise change packages | 17:41 |
| xperia | hmmm but before i installed proftpd everything worked. i checked now the directory "/var/cache" with ls -la and i dont have any debconf/config.dat dir and files there | 17:42 |
| qman__ | try this | 17:43 |
| qman__ | sudo mkdir /var/cache/debconf; sudo touch /var/cache/debconf/config.dat | 17:43 |
| qman__ | what most likely happened is that something broke prior to or during the install of proftpd | 17:44 |
| qman__ | not as a direct result of the proftpd package | 17:44 |
| qman__ | but some other issue | 17:44 |
| xperia | qman__; thanks a lot. will try it out. think i removed it manually this dir and file some days agao | 17:45 |

| ruben23 | hi guys i tried to used modprobe on my ubuntu-server but i get this error------------> http://pastebin.com/yWjsdsb8 | 18:19 |
| qman__ | those are only warnings, not errors | 18:20 |
| qman__ | they do not prevent your command from running, they are simply informing you of incorrect settings | 18:20 |
| ruben23 | qman__: what should be the right way..? | 18:22 |
| qman__ | as the warnings say, alsa-base does not follow the new convention of naming all config files .conf, and /etc/modprobe.conf is also a deprecated way of setting things | 18:23 |
| qman__ | it's not important in the current release, but doing things that way in future releases may not work | 18:23 |
| ruben23 | hi guys how about this are there any serious issue with this..?---->http://pastebin.com/1SR57gZc | 18:38 |

| xperia | hello to all. i am trying to get phpbb3 on my ubuntu server to work but for some reason i just get a empty site with no content. the apache/php server just call the one site index.php and nothing else. | 19:45 |
| xperia | i have installed phpbb3 as follow: "sudo apt-get install phpbb3" "sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpbb3/www /var/www/phpbb" "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart" "http://localhost/phpbb" | 19:45 |
| xperia | what could be the problem that phpbb3 is not working like it should. looks like a apache config problem! | 19:45 |
| qman__ | also, a little information about your network will be helpful, how you get to the internet, your routing/DHCP situation, etc | 19:45 |
| qman__ | xperia, apache is probably configured to ignore symlinks, and that's a bad idea even if it isn't | 19:46 |
| qman__ | the package should have installed another site configuration file | 19:46 |
| qman__ | or, if not, you should install one | 19:46 |
| qman__ | ls /etc/apache2/sites-available/ | 19:47 |
| xperia | qman__: okay thinked also that way. have only this files here "default" and "default-ssl" | 19:48 |
| xperia | will check the vhost files then in default | 19:48 |
| qman__ | if it didn't create a site for you, create one yourself, using the directory /usr/share/phpbb3/www | 19:48 |
| qman__ | and a site alias, as demonstrated in the default site with the /doc | 19:49 |
| qman__ | allowing symlinks like that is a considerable security risk, as you might imagine | 19:49 |
| qman__ | you need a <Directory /blah> block for apache to render the files | 19:50 |
| xperia | qman__: one thing that i just dont understand if symlinks are ignored why i am able then to call the index.php file still | 19:50 |
| qman__ | they might not be ignored | 19:51 |
| qman__ | depending on the options set | 19:51 |
| qman__ | what might be happening, is that apache can see all the files but PHP is being prevented from interacting with them | 19:53 |
| qman__ | in any case, it's good policy to do it the way I explained, and it will probably solve the problem | 19:54 |
| detrix | Ok, here is the pastbin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/510296/ I have a linksys router. I have assigned an IP to each compute in my local net. | 19:54 |
| qman__ | detrix, ok, what is the DHCP lease range set on your router? | 19:54 |
| xperia | qman__: yeah i guess also that something with php is probably the problem. this are btw the vhost lines http://paste-bin.com/view/8962ebcf | 19:55 |
| detrix | All the router shows is address starting at: 192.168.1.100. My desktop though has been assigned staticly though at 192.168.1.10 | 19:56 |
| qman__ | detrix, ok, what I was getting at is that you don't want to statically assign addresses within the range, so you're ok there, and that one reason it may be failing is if that address is in use | 19:57 |
| qman__ | detrix, what command did you use to restart networking? | 19:58 |
| detrix | nope. I have used this address for many years with this router. sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 19:58 |
| qman__ | detrix, that makes it a big more puzzling then | 20:01 |
| qman__ | also, for future reference, as sysv scripts are being replaced by upstart scripts, that method won't work in the future, use 'sudo service networking restart' (and similar) | 20:02 |
| detrix | qman__, so the interfaces file is fine? | 20:02 |
| qman__ | yes, the configuration you showed is fine | 20:02 |
| qman__ | might be something up with the dhclient, not sure exactly | 20:02 |
| qman__ | I'm assuming you installed with dynamic and then changed to static | 20:03 |
| detrix | this is my first time playing with this. how do I check the dns server. on the computer? | 20:03 |
| qman__ | DNS wouldn't have any effect on this, it depends on this working first | 20:03 |
| detrix | I did not see the option to do the static. maybe I will try to re-install. | 20:04 |
| qman__ | I'd try rebooting first | 20:04 |
| qman__ | sometimes, it's the magic fix | 20:04 |
| detrix | ;) | 20:04 |
| detrix | but I have. for a moment I thought it did fix it. but nope | 20:05 |
| qman__ | what's the output of `ifconfig -a` look like? | 20:05 |
| qman__ | don't have to copy it verbatim, just note which interfaces exist and what addresses they have, if any | 20:05 |
| detrix | you want this is pastebin as well | 20:06 |
| qman__ | just telling me is fine | 20:06 |
| detrix | it shows eth0: with the right address of 192.168.1.10. it also show: eth1_rename LInk and lo: | 20:08 |
| qman__ | do you have two cards installed? | 20:09 |
| detrix | yes. | 20:09 |
| detrix | ones on the motherboard, the other is a pci card | 20:09 |
| qman__ | ok | 20:10 |
| qman__ | what bothers me about that is eth1_rename | 20:10 |
| qman__ | it should just be eth1 | 20:10 |
| qman__ | look at their MAC addresses | 20:11 |
| qman__ | make sure they're not all 0s, and that they're not identical | 20:11 |
| detrix | I am also seeing something fishy. of eth0: it shows for H | 20:11 |
| detrix | for HWaddr I get ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff | 20:11 |
| qman__ | for both? | 20:11 |
| detrix | no | 20:11 |
| qman__ | which interface? | 20:12 |
| detrix | for eth1: I get a 6c:f0:49:72:e9:c9 | 20:12 |
| qman__ | I have a feeling that eth0 either has the wrong driver, or has failed | 20:13 |
| detrix | I am going to try to reboot one more time | 20:13 |
| detrix | I will also pull out eth1 | 20:13 |
| qman__ | before you do | 20:13 |
| qman__ | remove the file | 20:13 |
| qman__ | /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 20:14 |
| qman__ | then shut down, remove your extra NIC, and start back up to see what you hav | 20:14 |
| qman__ | e | 20:14 |
| detrix | when I did shutdown -t 0 now: a recovery menu came up....why??? | 20:16 |
| qman__ | you didn't specify what to do | 20:17 |
| qman__ | I suggest using `sudo poweroff` | 20:17 |
| qman__ | but you'd have to specify -h for halt, -r for reboot, etc | 20:18 |
