| isnoop | Hey all. I'm trying to auto-mount some partitions but modifying my fstab file makes the box fail to boot. I've tested with mount -a and that works great. | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| isnoop | Here's my fstab: http://pastebin.com/JaxG51t2 | 00:14 |
| isnoop | I'm running this in EC2, so I can take my root partition and mount it in another instance to fix it. | 00:16 |
| smoser | hggdh, it is not. | 00:44 |
| smoser | hggdh, i will try to get those hardy images uploaded tomorrow, but it might be monday | 00:45 |

| intel352 | hey guys, i have 2 servers, both ubuntu 10.10, both running nginx from apt. on both, i have chrooted users that host nginx vhosts from their chrooted environments. one server, the jail is in /home/jail, the other it's just /jail. Nginx (as www-data) can access /home & /home/jail with no problem (and serves up files properly), but the other server, Nginx (as www-data) cannot access /jail or subdirs... Any thoughts why? /ho | 02:55 |
| intel352 | me, /home/jail, /jail are all owned by root, same chmod on each as well... | 02:55 |
| intel352 | fixed it, cheers | 03:01 |

| Odaym | hello | 11:22 |
| Odaym | is it common to use Ubuntu Server on servers? | 11:22 |
| Odaym | just as reliable and solid as the next RedHat? | 11:22 |
| Odaym | or CentOS for example? | 11:22 |
| greppy | Yes, it is common. | 11:23 |
| greppy | Yes it is stable. | 11:23 |
| binBASH | And no it's not Red Hat | 11:23 |
| Odaym | yes of course it's not | 11:24 |
| binBASH | But I can tell you | 11:24 |
| binBASH | I switched after 10 years Red Hat to Ubuntu Server | 11:24 |
| Odaym | but i mean me as a not-so-knowledgeable enduser..i get the impression that RedHat is the only reliable and most powerful server out there | 11:24 |
| binBASH | and I'm quite happy I did that switch | 11:24 |
| lenios | the main difference is ubuntu does not include professional support | 11:25 |
| lenios | (i mean, paid support) | 11:25 |
| greppy | I've been using LTS releases as servers for quite a while now, works fine. | 11:25 |
| Odaym | but there's the forums | 11:25 |
| Odaym | which i depend entirely on for whatever i come across on Ubuntu | 11:25 |
| lenios | you'll find support, you'll just don't have official hotline | 11:26 |
| Odaym | ok | 11:26 |
| Odaym | i was at a conference about ubuntu for some friends of mine, and i didnt take the CD for the server | 11:27 |
| Odaym | but now that i need one, RedHat needs money and a lifetime to make it function...CentOS' netinstall is not burning on the CD properly.. | 11:27 |
| lenios | don't you have usb key? | 11:29 |
| Odaym | i do | 11:29 |
| Odaym | i can just move it to the usb and launch from there with CentOS? | 11:30 |
| Odaym | doesnt it need to be identified that X was copied here as an image? | 11:30 |
| lenios | i can't tell you about centos, but you can put the ubuntu server iso on a usb key | 11:31 |
| Odaym | just place it tehre | 11:31 |
| Odaym | really | 11:31 |
| Odaym | not like...WUBI? | 11:31 |
| Odaym | or something like that? | 11:31 |
| lenios | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 11:33 |
| lenios | you can put the iso file on the usb key, and install grub2 on the usb key to boot it | 11:34 |
| Odaym | noo now its getting complicated | 11:34 |
| Odaym | haha | 11:34 |
| Odaym | ok ok | 11:34 |
| Odaym | do i need to worry if Meerkat is as good as other releases when it comes to the Server line? | 11:34 |
| lenios | it's as good as others | 11:35 |
| Odaym | can you tell me the command that will let me know if i am on a 64 or 32-bit machine? | 11:35 |
| lenios | but you won't get support and updates for 5 years as with lucid | 11:35 |
| lenios | uname -a | 11:36 |
| Odaym | Linux Hive696 2.6.35-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 17:40:48 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux | 11:36 |
| Odaym | i686 | 11:36 |
| greppy | I personally use the LTS releases for servers, but you are free to go with the others :) | 11:38 |
| Odaym | but i686 is 32? | 11:39 |
| greppy | yes | 11:39 |
| lenios | there's also read -a infos < <(grep bits <(lshw -C processor 2>/dev/null)) && { (( ${infos[1]} == 64 )) && echo "64 bits ready" || echo "not compatible 64 bits."; } | 11:39 |
| Odaym | a script to nail it, then | 11:39 |
| lenios | to get the information from the processor | 11:39 |
| Odaym | it says 64 bits ready | 11:40 |
| lenios | then you are running a 32 kernel on a 64 bits ready processor | 11:40 |
| Odaym | i see, so only my OS is 32 | 11:40 |
| Odaym | but my machine is 64 | 11:40 |
| lenios | yes | 11:41 |
| Odaym | am i losing some of my processor power because of this? | 11:41 |
| lenios | it depends | 11:41 |
| Odaym | i mean in order to take advantage of the processor's potential, should it be running a 64 OS? | 11:41 |
| lenios | you should yes | 11:41 |
| Odaym | ok | 11:41 |
| Odaym | and changing to the same Meerkat but on 64..this is not done through an Upgrade process? | 11:42 |
| Odaym | have to format entirely? | 11:42 |
| greppy | yes | 11:42 |
| greppy | it's a big change to go from 32 to 64 bit packages and kernel. | 11:42 |
| Odaym | but it can be done without changing any core data? | 11:42 |
| Odaym | my files, etc... | 11:42 |
| greppy | if /home is on a seperate partition, yes. | 11:45 |
| greppy | otherwise it's a total format. | 11:45 |
| Odaym | and i find that out through....free? | 11:45 |
| Odaym | df? | 11:45 |
| greppy | yeah | 11:46 |
| Odaym | nope, not on a separate partition | 11:46 |
| Odaym | FLARN! | 11:46 |
| Odaym | ok | 11:46 |
| greppy | then back stuff up first :) | 11:46 |
| Odaym | yep | 11:46 |
| lenios | you don't need to reformat | 11:46 |
| Odaym | like usual | 11:46 |
| Odaym | what then? | 11:46 |
| lenios | just install over the old installation | 11:46 |
| greppy | ah | 11:47 |
| lenios | without formatting the partition | 11:47 |
| Odaym | i will back up and try that | 11:47 |
| greppy | true, I'd still backup, just in case :) | 11:47 |
| Odaym | there is always an option to Upgrade from the installer, yea? | 11:47 |
| lenios | installation will warn you if you didn't backup :) | 11:47 |
| greppy | and if you want to make a /home partition so you don't have to worry about it in the future, that may not be a bad idea. | 11:47 |
| lenios | you don't want to upgrade, you want to install | 11:47 |
| Odaym | yes but that will give it the impression that it's a fresh copy.. | 11:48 |
| lenios | upgrade is when you're coming from an old version | 11:48 |
| lenios | and you'll end up with something like a fresh copy | 11:49 |
| Odaym | so if i need to run a Ubuntu server, with 2 ubuntu clients, all connected to a switch | 11:50 |
| Odaym | and i want to be able to access them all, i will be able to through "smb:///etc..." | 11:50 |
| Odaym | ? | 11:50 |
| greppy | Odaym: if you install samba, yes. | 11:50 |
| greppy | well, install and configure. :) | 11:51 |
| Odaym | ok | 11:51 |
| lenios | you only want samba access? | 11:51 |
| RoyK | Odaym: with all ubuntu, nfs might be a better idea | 11:51 |
| Odaym | i dont know, i want to be able to BE the server | 11:51 |
| Odaym | like having a Domain on Windows | 11:51 |
| RoyK | NIS is the old way, LDAP the new | 11:52 |
| RoyK | we're still using NIS at work for historical reasons :P | 11:52 |
| RoyK | NIS is rather ancient, though | 11:52 |
| lenios | what's the use of the domain? | 11:52 |
| Odaym | just to try it out | 11:54 |
| Odaym | it's a home network | 11:54 |
| RoyK | if it's just a user database, it's no problem. if you want roaming profiles, that's just common mounts of homedirs. | 11:54 |
| lenios | do you need more than ssh? | 11:54 |
| RoyK | Odaym: read up on NFS first - you don't want SMB mounts in a unix network, really | 11:55 |
| RoyK | NFS is native to unix | 11:55 |
| lenios | https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html | 11:55 |
| lenios | pretty old, sorry | 11:56 |
| lenios | https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html | 11:56 |
| Odaym | ok | 11:56 |
| Odaym | thank you | 11:56 |
| lenios | page didn't change that much in 4 years though | 11:56 |
| RoyK | if not using nfs4, nothing much has changed :P | 12:05 |
| RoyK | !nfs | 12:05 |
| ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 12:05 |
| Odaym | watching a lion getting dissected on natgeo | 12:06 |
| Odaym | haha | 12:06 |
| RoyK | hm... massive protests in Algeria - perhaps they're next? | 12:07 |
| Odaym | really :) | 12:07 |
| Odaym | power to the people man | 12:07 |
| RoyK | let's just hope that'll be it - we haven't seen the end of this in neither Tunisia nor Egypt... | 12:09 |
| Odaym | sure we have | 12:09 |
| Odaym | Tunisia is forming a ministry | 12:09 |
| Odaym | a new government | 12:09 |
| RoyK | nope - none of them have a new government yet | 12:09 |
| RoyK | we don't know how that will work | 12:10 |
| Odaym | not yet | 12:10 |
| Odaym | but it's a long process | 12:10 |
| RoyK | we'll know in a year or so | 12:10 |
| Odaym | even here in Lebanon | 12:10 |
| lenios | as much as i like to read about it | 12:10 |
| lenios | !ot | 12:10 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 12:10 |
| Odaym | we dont have a fully formed government yet since we booted out the others | 12:10 |
| Odaym | sorry lenios | 12:10 |

| floown | hello | 12:19 |
| floown | for migrate a Jaunty server to the last LTS, what should I do, please? | 12:20 |
| RoyK | !jaunty | 12:20 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) was the tenth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 23, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 12:20 |
| floown | thx | 12:20 |
| floown | !upgrade | 12:21 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 12:21 |
| RoyK | floown: just run do-release-upgrade to take it to 9.10, then again to take it to 10.04 | 12:21 |
| floown | RoyK: ok, in two times ? | 12:21 |
| RoyK | yeah, you can only upgrade one step at a time | 12:21 |
| RoyK | except for LTS, which can be done from one LTS to the next | 12:22 |
| floown | ok, thx a lot | 12:22 |
| floown | RoyK: I have save my /etc my /home and /var, what can I save too ? | 12:22 |
| RoyK | so once on 10.04, /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades will be set to prompt=lts, and it won't allow upgrading to 10.10 unless you change that to 'normal' | 12:23 |
| floown | ok | 12:24 |
| RoyK | floown: just backup your data - normally it won't be needed - it'll just work - but then, you never know... | 12:24 |
| RoyK | btw, I'm not sure if /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is updated automatically... better check | 12:25 |
| RoyK | set it to lts if that's what you want | 12:25 |
| floown | ok, I do a backup for my database too, I have no recent backups | 12:25 |
| RoyK | floown: just dump it - mysqldump/pg_dump | 12:31 |

| sabgenton | funney | 13:16 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: what sort of wifi issues do you have? | 13:18 |
| RoyK | and have you tried updating to 10.04.2? | 13:18 |
| nimrod10 | RoyK, lol @RTFM, brilliant youtube video | 13:18 |
| RoyK | nimrod10: it was created to this javazone thing in norway some years back :) | 13:19 |
| RoyK | they have a few others that are quite good... | 13:19 |
| sabgenton | RoyK: well basicly if I restart the computer nat or routing etc goes down untill I set the card in to promiscusumode | 13:21 |
| sabgenton | and I can turn it off after that | 13:22 |
| sabgenton | promic | 13:22 |
| RoyK | wierd | 13:22 |
| sabgenton | it's really weird I have tried all sorts of networking combanations | 13:22 |
| RoyK | dunno - sorry - try 10.04.2 - it's just an apt-get dist-upgrade away | 13:22 |
| sabgenton | restart allways screws it up | 13:22 |
| sabgenton | hmm ok | 13:23 |
| sabgenton | RoyK: interesting I didn't know it was out | 13:23 |
| RoyK | :) | 13:23 |
| sabgenton | havent seen iso's | 13:24 |
| RoyK | well, it's in the repos | 13:24 |
| sabgenton | is it not on disc yet? | 13:24 |
| RoyK | http://pastebin.com/MyJ2y0gh | 13:24 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: no need for that, is it? | 13:24 |
| RoyK | I just install from some lucid cd and update | 13:25 |
| sabgenton | allso I knowtice uname -r returns -generic at the end | 13:26 |
| sabgenton | not -server | 13:26 |
| sabgenton | I installed form usb | 13:26 |
| sabgenton | not cd | 13:26 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: apt-get install linux-server | 13:27 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: the difference isn't a lot - just some scheduling / Hz settings | 13:27 |
| RoyK | I'd guess for 90% of servers installed, you won't notice any difference | 13:28 |
| sabgenton | RoyK: why did I end up with -generic? | 13:28 |
| RoyK | no idea | 13:28 |
| sabgenton | mabye the usb install method is buggey? | 13:28 |
| RoyK | not really | 13:29 |
| RoyK | it's just a boot medium | 13:29 |
| RoyK | just install whatever kernel you need | 13:30 |
| RoyK | again, it doesn't matter much | 13:30 |
| RoyK | it's the same version | 13:30 |
| RoyK | it's just built with a few different flags | 13:30 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: what version are you running? | 13:31 |
| RoyK | seems 2.6.35 is in the repos | 13:31 |
| RoyK | also, there are some packages named like linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless | 13:32 |
| sabgenton | RoyK: how much data will be downloaded in a dist-upgrade | 13:33 |
| sabgenton | just a fussy guess | 13:33 |
| sabgenton | I'm on .0 | 13:33 |
| sabgenton | not that it says .0 | 13:33 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: it'll tell you | 13:35 |
| Guinness2702 | how do I stop 10.04 server from loading the graphical ubuntu logo (usplash or plymouth?) at boot. I normally run it headless, but when I plug a monitor in, the display corrupts when the graphical screen comes up. What's worse is it's displaying some error (probably disk check required after I killed the power), but I can't see what the error is or how to resolve it :( | 13:35 |
| RoyK | btw, 10.04.2 doesn't come with a new kernel IIRC | 13:36 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: which kernel are you using now? | 13:36 |
| Guinness2702 | ...or for that matter, just change the video mode to something else which works? | 13:36 |

| sabgenton | yeah mabye I should just go 10.10 | 13:37 |
| sabgenton | how less stable is it I spose | 13:37 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: just install 2.6.35 | 13:37 |
| RoyK | it's in the repositories | 13:37 |
| sabgenton | now theres a nice .2 release of LTS | 13:37 |
| sabgenton | ok | 13:38 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: apt-get dist-upgrade first | 13:38 |
| RoyK | then look for 2.6.35 | 13:38 |
| RoyK | install it | 13:38 |
| RoyK | reboot | 13:38 |
| RoyK | try again | 13:38 |
| sabgenton | thats not suported is it | 13:38 |
| sabgenton | 35 on LTS | 13:38 |
| RoyK | it certainly is | 13:38 |
| RoyK | since it's in the default repository | 13:38 |
| RoyK | linux-image-2.6.35-23-server - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.35 on x86_64 | 13:38 |

| RoyK | apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-23-server | 13:39 |
| sabgenton | or do I have to specify | 13:39 |
| RoyK | I'd guess linux-server will use the old 2.6.35 | 13:39 |
| RoyK | 32 | 13:39 |
| RoyK | not 35 | 13:39 |
| sabgenton | ok | 13:39 |
| * patdk-lap can't wait for 2.6.38 | 13:39 | |
| RoyK | but please update to 10.04.2 first | 13:40 |
| sabgenton | intereesting will .2 iso come with 35 | 13:40 |
| RoyK | patdk-wk: what's new in there? | 13:40 |
| patdk-lap | some ipv6 support | 13:40 |
| sabgenton | or will it still start out on 32 by defualt | 13:40 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: doubt it - I guess they stick to .32 | 13:40 |
| patdk-lap | using ra/rs with ipv6 forwarding enabled | 13:40 |
| RoyK | .35 is there if you need it | 13:40 |
| sabgenton | and suported | 13:41 |
| sabgenton | yay | 13:41 |
| RoyK | patdk-wk: I thought most of ipv6 was supported years ago :P | 13:41 |
| patdk-lap | yes | 13:41 |
| RoyK | what is ra/rs? | 13:41 |
| patdk-lap | but if you enable forwarding, it EXPLICITALLY disables, and turns off ra/rs | 13:41 |
| * RoyK isn't very literate in the ipv6 world | 13:41 | |
| sabgenton | RoyK: is that the same kernel package that 10.10 uses? | 13:41 |
| patdk-lap | route advertisement, router solicitation | 13:41 |
| RoyK | ok | 13:41 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: no idea | 13:41 |
| sabgenton | I'm probably sounding naive | 13:42 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: just try the new kernel - if it doesn't do what you want, well, go back to the old one | 13:42 |
| patdk-lap | bsically, if you turn on forwarding, you MUST use static ip's and static routes | 13:42 |
| sabgenton | well 10.10 has that kernel I mean | 13:42 |
| sabgenton | I think | 13:42 |
| RoyK | 10.10 has 2.6.35 | 13:42 |
| RoyK | but just upgrade the kernel | 13:43 |
| RoyK | no reason to do a full upgrade | 13:43 |
| sabgenton | yeah | 13:43 |
| RoyK | LTS is far better for servers than non-LTS | 13:43 |
| sabgenton | but upgrade to .2 | 13:43 |
| sabgenton | y? | 13:43 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: yes - apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot | 13:43 |
| RoyK | or perhaps install 2.6.35 before rebooting | 13:44 |
| sabgenton | RoyK: what key reason do u see LTS as better | 13:44 |
| sabgenton | just suport | 13:44 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: it's far better supported - focus is on stability, not fancy features | 13:45 |
| sabgenton | suport I don't really need but stability .. | 13:46 |
| sabgenton | but then wifi dies anyway .. | 13:46 |
| sabgenton | heh | 13:46 |
| sabgenton | ok will try all of the above | 13:46 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: apt-get update && apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-23-server && apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot | 13:47 |
| RoyK | that's your one-liner | 13:47 |
| sabgenton | it's funey I don't see isos out onthe main download page | 13:47 |
| sabgenton | if you click download it still gives u .1 | 13:47 |
| sabgenton | u missed out the infamous sudo | 13:48 |
| sabgenton | :P | 13:48 |
| RoyK | sabgenton: I was expecting you to be sudo -i'd in :P | 14:00 |

| aliverius | i am building a print (among others) server with ubuntu | 14:23 |
| aliverius | the system sees the printer and can print to it and all that is done from my desktop which can connect to the server to administer | 14:24 |
| aliverius | now what i need is to make my desktop print through the server | 14:25 |
| aliverius | Q: can i setup my server in a way that any client will discover the network printer? | 14:26 |

| binaryhat | When I connect to my Virtual O/S (Windows 7) on my Ubuntu 10.10 server, the server completely looses power, hence turns off without warning | 16:38 |
| qman__ | Odaym, in samba 3, the program names are smbd and nmbd | 16:48 |
| qman__ | so, even though samba 3 is installed, there is no 'samba' command | 16:48 |
| Odaym | oh | 16:49 |
| Odaym | alright | 16:49 |
| Odaym | so i DO have it? | 16:49 |
| qman__ | probably | 16:49 |
| qman__ | test with something like `sudo service smbd status` | 16:49 |
| Odaym | running | 16:50 |

| binaryhat | im using kvm | 16:50 |
| qman__ | that's pretty strange | 16:50 |
| qman__ | sure your power supply is ok/powerful enough? | 16:51 |
| binaryhat | 450w | 16:51 |
| binaryhat | it has happened 3x | 16:51 |
| qman__ | what kind of hardware? | 16:51 |
| binaryhat | asus mobo, amd cpu, 8gb ram | 16:52 |
| qman__ | also, you could use something like stress to determine if it's a kvm-specific issue or a load-related issue | 16:52 |
| binaryhat | brb | 16:52 |
| binaryhat | stress? | 16:52 |
| qman__ | yes | 16:53 |
| qman__ | it's a program that puts various loads on your machine for testing purposes | 16:53 |
| binaryhat | not familiar w/ it | 16:53 |
| qman__ | e.g. `stress --cpu 8 --vm 8` starts 8 CPU-stressing threads and 8 memory-stressing threads | 16:53 |
| binaryhat | ok | 16:54 |

| binaryhat | qman__, u there? | 17:23 |
| binaryhat | qman__, i did stress --cpu 8 --vm 8 and my server completely shutt off | 17:26 |
| Odaym | so guys, "scp oday@Hive696:~/file1 ~/Music/" is copying file1 back to the same machine but in the Music directory | 17:42 |
| Odaym | how do i copy from the machine that i'm connected to, to the machine that i am connecting from? | 17:42 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: you can do scp root@server:~/bla/bla . the dot means pull to current dir. | 17:44 |
| binaryhat | i did stress --cpu 8 --vm 8 and my server completely shutt off | 17:44 |
| Odaym | no thesheff17, that copied the file back to the same machine | 17:45 |
| binaryhat | what gives? | 17:45 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: do you want to push or pull? maybe I'm confused on what you mean. | 17:45 |
| Odaym | i am in an SSH connection from my server, i am connected to my client | 17:46 |
| Odaym | i want to copy files from the client to the server | 17:46 |
| Odaym | qman__ | 17:51 |
| Odaym | any idea? | 17:51 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: to push files it would just be scp -r ~/files/ root@server:~/files/ | 17:51 |
| Odaym | ok thank you thesheff17 | 17:53 |
| Odaym | :) | 17:53 |
| Odaym | and what about directories? | 17:53 |
| zul | smoser: whats up? | 17:54 |
| smoser | jjohansen above posted links to haryd kernel debs | 17:54 |
| smoser | but there was no linux-modules in the list | 17:54 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: scp -r will be recursive | 17:54 |
| Odaym | ah ok | 17:54 |
| smoser | do you know if he had source ? coudl we ppa build ? | 17:54 |
| Odaym | so without -r, i can use it only for singular files | 17:54 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: yea you could use * so scp ~/files/* root@server:~/files/ | 17:55 |
| thesheff17 | that will just do files | 17:55 |
| Odaym | aah true | 17:55 |
| Odaym | true | 17:55 |
| Odaym | let's say i am on SSH with my client | 17:56 |
| Odaym | and i want to display a dialog box | 17:56 |
| Odaym | on the screen of that machine | 17:56 |
| Odaym | is there a default dialog box i can use? | 17:56 |
| Odaym | not having to write java GUI i mean.. | 17:56 |
| thesheff17 | Odaym: what do you mean default dialog box? | 17:59 |
| thesheff17 | it sounds like you want to remote control through vnc or freeNX https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX | 18:00 |
| binaryhat | i did stress --cpu 8 --vm 8 and my server completely shuts off. any ideas? | 18:13 |
| thesheff17 | binaryhat: anything in the logs? sounds like a hardware issue. | 18:16 |
| binaryhat | everytime it shuts off im not sure if anything is logged | 18:17 |
| thesheff17 | binaryhat: maybe the power supply is faulty...not delivering enough power under load...is the machine fine when just idle? | 18:19 |
| binaryhat | yes | 18:19 |
| thesheff17 | what kind of machine? server? can you check the bios or LILO card to make sure all the hardware is working correctly. | 18:20 |
| binaryhat | the only resource intense thing i do is virtualization | 18:20 |
| thesheff17 | maybe do a mem test or hd test may help to start to rule out devices. | 18:21 |
| binaryhat | server yes, home built newegg parts | 18:22 |
| binaryhat | bios is fine | 18:24 |
| thesheff17 | binaryhat: I would start with the power supply or testing hardware with software from the manufacturer. | 18:24 |
| binaryhat | its not fancy hardware | 18:25 |
| binaryhat | http://www.stresslinux.org/sl/ | 18:26 |
| binaryhat | thesheff17, how should i test the psu? | 18:28 |
| thesheff17 | binaryhat: do you have another one to try? If the machine powers off with a new one you know it isn't the power supply...this is one advantage to having a server bought from a specific company...usually there is allot more in site into failed hardware when it comes from hp, dell, etc. | 18:30 |
| thesheff17 | I don't know any way to specifically to test the power supply. | 18:30 |
| binaryhat | hmm | 18:31 |
| binaryhat | i dont think its the psu....maybe memory | 18:32 |
| thesheff17 | try memtest on the ubuntu cd | 18:32 |
| binaryhat | ok | 18:32 |
| binaryhat | the pc is only 30 days old | 18:34 |
| qman__ | binaryhat, that means your power supply is insufficient to power your computer under full load | 18:39 |
| qman__ | it's either not powerful enough or going bad | 18:39 |
| qman__ | Odaym, scp works like cp, source then destination | 18:39 |
| qman__ | scp user@sourcehost:/path/file user@destinationhost:/path/file | 18:40 |
| binaryhat | my server completely shutoff during memtest!!! | 18:41 |
| qman__ | then the power supply is most likely bad | 18:41 |
| binaryhat | arrrggh | 18:41 |
| qman__ | freezing would indicate bad memory | 18:41 |
| qman__ | but powering off is usually the power supply | 18:41 |

| binaryhat | suggestions on a psu? | 18:44 |
| Odaym | haha | 18:45 |
| binBASH | did you tell already what hardware you have? ;) | 18:45 |
| Odaym | i tried to run a GUI java program while on an SSH client | 18:45 |
| Odaym | wanted it to pop up there on that machine | 18:45 |
| Odaym | says it cant | 18:45 |
| Odaym | no X11 | 18:45 |
| Odaym | how do i ..fix this | 18:45 |
| Odaym | install X11 there? im sure it already has X11 | 18:45 |
| binaryhat | qman__, suggestions for a new psu | 18:46 |
| qman__ | binaryhat, it depends on what equipment you have, what your CPU is rated at, number of hard drives, etc | 18:47 |
| binBASH | Odaym: ssh -X | 18:47 |
| Odaym | doesnt work | 18:47 |
| Odaym | says wrong parameter | 18:47 |
| qman__ | for a basic system, dual core, one drive, that's big enough and it's probably just bad | 18:47 |
| qman__ | but for a six-core with multiple drives, that's pushing it | 18:47 |
| binaryhat | qman__, https://secure.newegg.com/WishList/MySavedWishDetail.aspx?ID=16522027 | 18:47 |
| qman__ | says it's empty | 18:48 |
| binaryhat | oops | 18:48 |
| qman__ | I buy budget power supplies based on customer ratings | 18:48 |

| qman__ | what CPU? | 18:51 |
| qman__ | also, do you have a discrete graphics card? | 18:51 |
| binaryhat | qman__, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103687 | 18:51 |
| binaryhat | no http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131668 | 18:52 |
| qman__ | without discrete graphics, 450w should be enough for that | 18:52 |
| qman__ | I'd try and return it on warranty | 18:52 |
| qman__ | oh, one more thing | 18:52 |
| qman__ | make sure your power button isn't faulty | 18:52 |
| qman__ | sometimes that happens | 18:52 |
| binBASH | hdds should consome max. 160W | 18:53 |
| qman__ | turn on the computer, then disconnect the power button and see if it still shuts off | 18:53 |
| binBASH | consume | 18:53 |
| qman__ | power supplies typically run optimal at 50% load | 18:53 |
| qman__ | so that's about right for your build | 18:54 |
| binaryhat | power button isnt faulty im sure | 18:58 |
| qman__ | then the most likely case is the power supply is just bad, it happens | 18:59 |
| qman__ | I'd try swapping one from another computer to test | 18:59 |
| qman__ | it could also be a very specific problem with the motherboard | 18:59 |
| binaryhat | i dont have a spare psu | 18:59 |
| qman__ | well, odds are about 20:1 power supply | 19:00 |
| qman__ | I'd return it | 19:01 |
| qman__ | get a replacement | 19:01 |
| binaryhat | if i disconnect the power button and it still shuts off...means what? | 19:01 |
| qman__ | means that it isn't the power button | 19:01 |
| binaryhat | and its the psu | 19:04 |
