[03:41] <kaushal> Hi
[03:48] <GamingX> Hey guys. Can someone help in installing Eclipse-PDT on Ubuntu ? I tried installing it from the tutorial here, but I'm having some problems with it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipsePDT
[04:29] <mkonline> hi
[05:26] <kaushal> Hi
[05:26] <kaushal> Any clue about https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-server/2011-December/006024.html ?
[08:47] <Vivek> I have made a fresh install of Ubuntu Ubuntu 11.10
[08:48] <Vivek> I have followed the following URL to install orchestra http://cloud.ubuntu.com/2011/09/oneiric-server-deploy-server-fleets-p1/
[08:50] <Vivek> When I do a cobbler list: I am not able to view the oneiric-i386  or  oneiric-x86_64 in any of the distros:, profiles:, repos:,  the mgmtclasses is completely empty.
[08:50] <Vivek> Why is this happening ?
[08:51] <Vivek> The Host is Ubuntu 11.10 and I am running orchrestra on a host running in virtualbox.
[09:22] <drt24> Vivek: you might need to run orchestra-$something to get it to initailise things properly
[09:23] <Vivek> What is the $something ?
[09:24] <Vivek> I am missing all oneric entries.
[09:30] <drt24> so if you do tab completion on orchestra- you should get a selection of different scripts to choose from I don't remember which the correct one was
[09:30] <drt24> potentially request isos or similar
[09:30] <drt24> (I don't have my VM with orchestra running at the moment)
[09:40] <Vivek> orchesta-import-isos
[09:40] <Vivek> drt24: orchesta-import-isos
[10:03] <drt24> ahh good :-)
[10:03] <lynxman> morning o/
[10:04] <jamespage> morning all
[10:04] <jamespage> morning lynxman
[10:06] <lynxman> jamespage: morning jamespage :)
[10:10] <caribou> morning
[10:11] <jamespage> Daviey, smoser, utlemming, lynxman (plus anyone else whos interested)
[10:11] <caribou> Question : when /boot is setup as a separate partition, is there a requirement for it to be ext2 ?
[10:11] <jamespage> the minimal virtual install is around +50MB oversized in precise ATM
[10:11] <lynxman> caribou: requirement is only put by grub, I think it supports XFS as well and other filesystems
[10:12] <caribou> thanks lynxman
[10:12] <jamespage> two versions of python is some of that; but we are also carrying multi-arch overhead - should/can this be disabled for the minimal-virtual install?
[10:12] <lynxman> caribou: "GRUB supports all commonly used Unix file systems, VFAT and NTFS used by Windows, as well as Logical Block Address (LBA) mode. GRUB allows users to view the contents of files on any supported file system."
[10:13] <caribou> I'm working on a kdump patch to fix an issue when /boot is a separate partition
[10:13] <caribou> lynxman: thanks, means that the patch will need to be more generic
[10:14] <lynxman> jamespage: I reckon so, but I think Daviey was doing some work on that
[10:21] <jamespage> lynxman, hmm - is Daviey around?  he might be on hols
[10:24] <Daviey> jamespage: o/
[10:24] <Daviey> holololowhat?
[10:26] <jamespage> Daviey: lynxman thought you might be looking at the minimal-virtual install size on amd64?
[10:26] <lynxman> jamespage: he's never on holidays :)
[10:26] <jamespage> its about 50MB oversize - see above
[10:29] <Daviey> jamespage: I don't know that we can disable multi-arch for a specific usecase
[10:30] <Daviey> we might just have to lump it, unless there are other reasons for the expansion?
[10:30] <jamespage> Daviey: well its only 50MB so I can update the test case to make an allowance for amd64 architectures
[10:30] <Daviey> I did notice am64 iso recently ballooned, not clear why
[10:30] <Daviey> (amd64 iso is currently oversized)
[10:30] <Daviey> .. so we do need to fix that.
[10:30] <jamespage> Daviey: OK - so I'll update the test case to account for the multiarch increase
[10:31] <jamespage> it will still fail; so I'll raise a bug as well
[10:31] <jamespage> I have looked but can't see why it is so much larger
[10:31] <Daviey> right
[10:31] <Daviey> I'd like to be certain that is the only reason for the bump
[10:31] <jamespage> +25MB for multiarch
[10:32] <Daviey> Out of interest, when was the last time anyone here used alien?
[10:36] <BigRedS> Daviey: three or four years ago I'd have thought. Back when it was relatively new, and most things were packaged for rpm
[10:41] <Daviey> BigRedS: right, we still ship it on the CD.. wonder if we still need to.
[11:01] <sarthor> where can i get help about openerp? I want to know can i install openerp on ubuntu-server as a server? will i be able to connected via my browser?
[11:05] <caribou> lynxman: looks like grub doesn't like XFS on /boot. my VM no longer boots :)
[11:05] <lynxman> caribou: *doh*
[11:05] <lynxman> caribou: it should supposedly work
[11:06] <caribou> well, grub-rescue tells me "unknown filesystem"
[11:06] <lynxman> :/
[11:19] <jamespage> Daviey: bug 904681
[11:19] <jamespage> I've also annotated the jenkins job with a link to this bug
[11:38] <Daviey> jamespage: you are pretty good.. aren't you?
[11:39] <Daviey> jamespage: I'm /certain/ there is a deeper problem
[11:48] <lynxman> Daviey: the ath9k rom in ipxe is still broken, should I try to build a package skipping it? :)
[11:48] <jamespage> Daviey: agreed
[12:02] <soren> jamespage: You don't log what packages are installed in those images, do you?
[12:02] <soren> jamespage: Like a package manifest of sorts?
[12:02] <jamespage> soren: well we grab the d-i syslog
[12:02] <soren> jamespage: i see the image size jumped 35 MB from 2011-11-29 to 2011-12-02.
[12:03] <soren> In VMBuilder, I used to run "dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Package} ${Version}\n'" at the end to capture the manifest.
[12:03] <soren> That was really useful in tracking down exactly like this.
[12:03] <jamespage> soren: that would be a good addition to the data captured
[12:06] <soren> Daily archive snapshots would also be awesome.
[12:19] <lynxman> Silly question but how can I change the Ubuntu install partition editor to create MBR partitions instead of GPT? I'm using old hardware
[12:27] <zul> lynxman: maybe in expert mode
[12:27] <lynxman> zul: hmm I'll try, thanks :)
[12:50] <koolhead11> hi all
[12:50] <lynxman> koolhead11: hi o/
[12:51] <koolhead11> hello lynxman . how are things :d
[12:52] <lynxman> koolhead11: busy :)
[12:53] <koolhead11> lynxman: awesome. i am reading OS. been a while i read hard copy of any book :P
[13:21] <RoyK> http://www.xkcd.com/989/ lol
[13:27] <koolhead11> hey RoyK i hate you man :P
[13:44] <BigRedS> If I've an md array rebuilding, is there a way to ask it which device is being readded?
[13:50] <Daviey> lynxman: how is it broken?
[14:17] <zul> Daviey: hey did you see the security review that jdstrand did for keystone?
[14:42] <Daviey> zul: sure did
[14:42] <zul> Daviey: will put it on my list
[14:43] <Daviey> \o/
[14:43] <zul> so its going to be properiatary (i cant spell that word)
[14:49] <lynxman> Daviey: the same rom as before doesn't work
[14:50] <lynxman> Daviey: ath9k rom is broken, and nobody knows on #ipxe
[14:53] <lynxman> Daviey: I think I'll just exclude ath9k rom or maybe use the old one
[17:25] <hallyn> kees: jjohansen: the seccomp2 stuff in ubuntu-precise kernel is supposed to be usable, right?
[17:25]  * hallyn fixin' to have some fun with seccom2+lxc over break
[17:28] <kees> hallyn: I still haven't examined the execness, but the code is there in precise, yes.
[17:28] <kees> hallyn: I'll be excited to see what you come up with!
[17:29] <hallyn> kees: cool, thanks.  First I'll actually play with the mini jail from google folks, so I'll verify with that whether the kernel is all right I  guess :)
[17:32] <kees> hallyn: yeah, minijail is cool
[17:35] <zul> adam_g: can you have a look http://paste.ubuntu.com/771266/
[17:38] <adam_g> zul: is this to be the current delta between our branch and the ubuntu-openstack-packagers branch?
[17:38] <zul> adam_g: yeah plus my fixes to it
[17:42] <adam_g> zul: ah, looks good. i wanna check on "glance-manage db sync", im not sure if that command is still there.. even if it is, "glance-manage" wasn't functioning at all last night. im not sure if config files need updating or what
[17:43] <zul> i installed that package this morning and didnt have the same problem
[17:43] <adam_g> hmm ok
[17:48] <smoser> adam_g, have you installed precise packagess of current nova?
[17:48] <smoser> i was seeing db sync issues with nova on devstack yesterday (from git, not packaged)
[17:48] <adam_g> zul: is there a branch somewhere with that diff? ill give it a go
[17:48] <zul> adam_g: not yet gimme a sec
[17:48] <adam_g> smoser: i haven't used anything that hasn't been in our archive this cycle. ill probably start working off milestone-proposed now
[17:49] <adam_g> smoser: what was the issue? tables already exist?
[17:49] <smoser> so... if someone could veirfy that nova db sync works on precise from package, that'd be good.
[17:49] <smoser> adam_g, hold on. let me dig log.
[17:49] <zul> adam_g: lp:~zulcss/glance/ubuntu-merg
[17:49] <zul> smoser: hmmm?
[17:49] <adam_g> smoser: ive been using packaged nova without problems
[17:50] <smoser> but what level are they at?
[17:50] <smoser> this is recent in last week i think
[17:50] <smoser> http://paste.ubuntu.com/770272/
[17:51] <smoser> now, clearly devstack does all that pip crap, so something else could be in the way. but i just hoped someone had seen it functionoing given recent nova on recent precise.
[17:51] <smoser> that was tip of both yesterday morning.
[17:51] <adam_g> smoser: ive seen that before a while ago, it was a bad migration config in nova's migrate repo
[17:51] <smoser> adam_g, well it woekd on oneiric
[17:52] <smoser> 85% sure they were the same things
[17:52] <adam_g> smoser: the same nova versions?
[17:53] <smoser> yeah.
[17:53] <smoser> both at tip of af54e79b7815c233c6e800bc79e428fe23f92eb7
[17:55] <adam_g> smoser: it might be related to mysql changes. i hit almost the exact same thing (if i remember correctly) only when mysql was configured using InnoDB instead of MyISAM
[17:55] <smoser> adam_g, i just launched another one in canonistack.
[17:55] <smoser> i just launch with: http://paste.ubuntu.com/771386/
[17:56] <smoser> as user-data on  my precise amis
[17:56] <adam_g> smoser: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/816236
[17:57] <smoser> if this reproduces now i'll open a bug, adam_g
[17:57] <smoser> and you can poke at the system too
[17:58] <adam_g> smoser: at the surface it looks like the same thing, id look at the patch that fixed that bug and see if the same could be applied to the migration thats failing. it might be triggered by our mysql changes, but ideally those migrations should run on any compatable db backend, id think
[18:17] <adam_g> zul: that package doesn't work. none of of the dependencies i added in lp:~gandelman-a/glance/fixdeps exist in that pkg branch?
[18:18] <zul> adam_g: shit gimme a sec
[18:18] <zul> i totally forgot about your branch in my branch
[18:19] <adam_g> :)
[18:21] <zul> adam_g: fixed
[18:23] <adam_g> zul: im curious to know why we're not doing all of this ontop of the upstream branch?
[18:24] <zul> adam_g: becuse i have pushed to the upstream branch
[18:24] <zul> i wanted someone to test it other than me before i pushed it
[18:24] <zul> s/pushed it/merge request/g
[18:25] <zul> but after those changes we will be sync for glance at least
[18:25]  * zul goes back to writing man pages
[18:26] <adam_g> zul: well i mean, why not rebase based on what is in the current upstream branch, add our changes and push back? that dependency change you just applied will be a merge conflict against the upstream change
[18:27] <zul> adam_g: thats the goal essentially
[18:27] <adam_g> zul: ah, im not tryin to bust your chops just trying to wrap my head around how this is supposed to work :)
[18:28] <zul> adam_g: sure sure, but yes we need to sync everything up
[18:28] <adam_g> zul: goin to #openstack-packaging
[18:37] <broder> zul: what's your intent with the branches owned by ~openstack-ubuntu-packagers? my best interpretation of the intent is that changes should go there instead of the lp:ubuntu/* branches, but there's no Vcs-Bzr tag in the packaging to confirm that
[18:39] <zul> broder: openstack-ubuntu-packagers is apart of the openstack project and thats where they keep their packaging, ubuntu packaing is kept in ubuntu-server-dev and the debian/control needs to be updated to reflect this
[18:40] <EvilResistance> perhaps you all can help me...  i've got a system which tries to boot, but yells about a readonly filesystem and says it needs recovery (after which writing will become active again).  It dumps me into an initramfs prompt.  If I use a LiveCD to fsck the partition, will that fix the issue?
[18:47] <EvilResistance> nevermind fixed it
[18:47] <EvilResistance> running the fsck fixed the partition.
[19:09] <zul> adam_g: is it ok for merging?
[19:19] <adam_g> zul: crap hold on
[19:22] <webPragmatist>  /usr/sbin/service: 9: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution
[19:22] <webPragmatist> can i reinstall the service binary somehow?
[19:25] <smoser> webPragmatist, sudo apt-get install --reinstall sysvinit-utils
[19:30] <webPragmatist> smoser: what's up with this UUID=08f80e21-4bc5-4192-b77e-fe4c476c62b3 /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
[19:31] <webPragmatist> should i restart?
[19:31] <webPragmatist>  man this server is effed
[19:33] <adam_g> SpamapS: ping
[19:33] <smoser> webPragmatist, i dont know what you mean.
[19:33] <smoser> that looks sane to me.
[19:33] <SpamapS> adam_g: pong, sup?
[19:35] <adam_g> SpamapS: mysql on precise, did the default storage engine change?
[19:36] <webPragmatist> smoser: the drive is mounted read-only ?
[19:36] <webPragmatist> i'm just confused… maybe it needs to run fsck?
[19:36] <SpamapS> adam_g: yes!
[19:36] <SpamapS> adam_g: 5.5 has InnoDB by default.
[19:37] <SpamapS> because MyISAM is doomed. :)
[19:37] <smoser> webPragmatist, thats from fstab? its just telling you that if there are errors, it will be remounted read-only.
[19:37] <smoser> so, if it is RO, then there might have been issues on fscheck.
[19:38] <adam_g> SpamapS: ok, thats what i figured. thanks
[19:38] <adam_g> smoser: ^^ thats why this is only turning up on precise
[19:40] <smoser> hm..
[19:40] <SpamapS> nova can't handle being innodb?
[19:41] <smoser> adam_g, so you tihnk that 022_ migrates from InnoDB -> InnoDB and that causes issues ?
[19:41] <adam_g> SpamapS: it can with special care during migrations.
[19:43] <adam_g> smoser: probably, or a python-migrate not being able ot handle storage engines being swapped out from under it
[19:44] <SpamapS> alter table foo engine=InnoDB; when it already is InnoDB is exacty the same as doing 'optimize table foo'
[20:24] <webPragmatist> smoser: what should i do heh?
[20:31] <sveinse> I'm setting up RAID5 md on 4 disks. Is it recommended to put LVM on top of the md? I have no need for more than one partition in this md. And I doubt the server will grow as its full.
[20:49] <SpamapS> sveinse: LVM has other benefits
[20:49] <SpamapS> sveinse: like snapshots
[21:15] <zul> adam_g Daviey: so that glance-manaage bug doesnt affect the milestone-proposed branch (just tested it) so we should be ok
[21:17] <Daviey> win
[21:18] <Daviey> smoser: How did daily triage go?
[21:19] <smoser> ;)
[21:19] <Nafallo> hah! nice answer :-P
[21:21]  * Daviey does some
[21:28] <Daviey> Anyone fancy sponsoring, bug 903901 SRU?
[21:29] <smoser> i'm looking at it Daviey
[21:29] <Daviey> rocking!
[21:29] <smoser> i hate the package importer failing
[21:31] <Daviey> I hate disease, poverty and lack of world peace; we all have things we don't like, eh? :)
[21:31] <smoser> disease.
[21:31] <smoser> pft
[21:31] <guntbert> says the young and healthy
[21:32] <SpamapS> zul: were you going to respond to kees question about SRU's ?
[21:32] <zul> SpamapS: i did
[21:32] <SpamapS> stupid sup..
[21:32]  * SpamapS digs back through archived threads
[21:33] <SpamapS> zul: you  must have responded in private
[21:33] <Daviey> I didn't see the reponse, i don't thik
[21:34] <Daviey> oh, wait - i did
[21:34] <SpamapS> the list didn't show it
[21:34] <zul> SpamapS: stuck in the moderation queue again i bet
[21:35] <Daviey> Yep.. zul - you'll need to poke sabdfl, mdz, Keybuk, cjwatson or pitti.
[21:35] <SpamapS> Or join the ML
[21:35] <Daviey> Hmm, not necessarily in that order.
[21:35] <zul> lovely
[21:36] <SpamapS> its only moderated for non-subscribers isn't it?
[21:36] <Daviey> I assumed the subscribers was limited to the techboard, by design.
[21:36] <Daviey> But i guess there is no reason for it to be.
[21:36] <SpamapS> nope, I'm subscribed
[21:36] <zul> so much to do so little time
[21:37]  * Daviey sub's
[22:04] <wmp> http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/15/plasma-desktopLb1917.jpg - anyone know what is wrong?
[22:13] <SpamapS> wmp: "Root-NFS: no NFS server address"
[22:14] <SpamapS> wmp: that may be misleading, but basically it means the server wasn't able to mount the root partition
[22:14] <wmp> this have all kernels, but only on this machne dont work
[22:14] <SpamapS> wmp: in grub, what does 'root=' show ?
[22:14] <wmp> SpamapS: wait ;)
[22:17] <adam_g> zul: what release did you test?
[22:18] <wmp> SpamapS: http://wklej.org/id/648592/
[22:21] <zul> adam_g: you are using trunk (e3), release is (e2)
[22:21] <zul> adam_g: i updated my branch so you should be able to just pull it
[22:21] <zul> and rebuild yadda yadda
[22:22] <adam_g> ok
[22:23] <SpamapS> wmp: hm, I don't really know how to read that.. but typically I'd expect an 'initrd' somewhere
[22:29] <wmp> SpamapS: i must change sda1 to hda1
[22:29] <wmp> interesting...
[22:44] <sanderlt> Heyo everybody! i need to get to (whole) bash terminal from gdm.. any suggestions?
[22:48] <SpamapS> sanderlt: ctrl-alt-f1
[23:00] <adam_g> zul: that pkg seems to be cool excpet for registry
