[00:02] <somethinginteres> Hi all, following this guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP) I have setup a lamp server on my Ubuntu Desktop. Unfortunately when running "index.php" Firefox asks me to download the file. I have followed the basic troubleshooting suggestions in the guide with no luck. Ideas?
[00:07] <l0n> somethinginteres: check the section titled: "Checking PHP 5 installation"
[00:09] <l0n> somethinginteres: woops missed the last part you said, ok check the apache config and provide a link to a paste binned copy in here
[00:11] <somethinginteres> l0n: thanks for your offer to help. It seems restarting apache may have fixed it. I am brand new to using servers and such so I had no idea how to do that.
[00:11] <somethinginteres> l0n: yep all working. Phew
[00:12] <l0n> somethinginteres: good stuff :)
[00:13] <somethinginteres> l0n: while I am here may I ask how I can make it so my non root user account can add and remove files from /var/www?
[00:14] <l0n> somethinginteres: well you can change the permissions of the directory but I would suspect that it's not good practice to do so
[00:15] <somethinginteres> l0n: understood. So how do people usually add and remove files from their test servers just running their editors as root?
[00:17] <l0n> somethinginteres: I am by no means an expert on these sorts of things but this guy sounds like he's onto something: http://serverfault.com/questions/6895/whats-the-best-way-of-handling-permissions-for-apache2s-user-www-data-in-var
[00:18] <somethinginteres> l0n: sounds good for just a local testbed. Thanks.
[00:43] <doommaster> I did a plain Ubuntu install on a system which contains a RAID, the OS is on a non RAID HDD now the system does not boot when any of the raid hdds are installed it marks the raid degraded and breaks the init nevertheless there is nothing needed on there and the system boots just fine when the RAID hdds are disconnected wtf is wrong? natty booted just fine
[00:48] <doommaster> so there is no way to boot my system as long a a degraded raid is connected?
[00:48] <doommaster> this must be a bug
[01:14] <druonysus> I am sshed into a system at my datacenter... I was there earlier and realized I left myself logged in that the terminal befor disconnecting the crash cart. Is there a way I can kick myself off tty1?
[01:15] <twb> druonysus: pkill -u druonysus ?
[01:16] <druonysus> and if I am logged in on ssh with that same user will I lose that connection too?
[01:16] <druonysus> I mean, that's not a big deal I just want to know what to expect really
[01:17] <twb> Regarding RAID, there is an option "bootdegraded" that determines whether the system will pivot_root from ramdisk to upstart -- if bootdegraded is not set, booting will drop to a shell at that step if the array is degraded.
[01:17] <druonysus> twb: no that only killed the ssh session and not the tty1 session
[01:17] <twb> I *believe* bootdegraded is off by default; you can simply pass it on the boot: prompt
[01:18] <twb> druonysus: then you're logged in as someone else, or pkill is racing the wrong way :-/
[01:18] <twb> druonysus: in any case, killing off the appropriate process should suffice
[01:19] <doommaster> twb: hehe that would be toooo easy
[01:20] <doommaster> the raid won't mount with that option
[01:20] <doommaster> it seems broken since there is only 1/10 disks
[01:20] <druonysus> twb: thank you, I just killed the bash session that was on tty1
[01:20] <druonysus> thanks
[01:22] <twb> You lost 9 out of ten disks?
[01:23] <doommaster> yes
[01:23] <doommaster> :)
[01:23] <doommaster> anyways the raid is broken and thusly the os wont boot!!?
[01:24] <doommaster> that is not rally a good solution
[01:24] <twb> doommaster: um, in a RAID 5?
[01:24] <doommaster> raid6
[01:24] <twb> You're fucked
[01:24] <doommaster> I know the other disks are just not avail atm
[01:24] <doommaster> they will be back soon ;)
[01:24] <twb> RAID6 only has two parity drives, if you lose more than two drives your array is GONE
[01:24] <doommaster> no worry about the data
[01:24] <twb> Oh, I see.
[01:24] <doommaster> I know about that
[01:25] <doommaster> it is just the fact, that the OS will not boot anymore because it somewhat assumes the RAID is needed to boot
[01:25] <doommaster> which is BS
[01:25] <twb> OK, do this:
[01:25] <twb> doommaster: boot with "break" in boot:.  That will drop you to the ramdisk
[01:26] <twb> doommaster: now, manually assemble only the arrays you need.  Likewise LVM.
[01:26] <doommaster> hmm yhea it boots into busybox atm
[01:26] <doommaster> but since the box is unattended
[01:26] <twb> doommaster: finally, mount the root filesystem on /root and hit ^D to log out
[01:26] <doommaster> no option
[01:26] <twb> That should drop you into a working system with the least hassle
[01:26] <twb> doommaster: no physical access?
[01:26] <doommaster> I can only rtemotly access the machine
[01:26] <doommaster> jepp
[01:26] <doommaster> I need a working sshd
[01:26] <doommaster> so the system must boot first
[01:27] <twb> Then you're buggered unless you have ILO or a really clever monkey
[01:27] <doommaster> and it did in older versions of Ubuntu
[01:27] <doommaster> it is just since 11.10 that it won't
[01:27] <twb> Once it's back up, there is an mdadm boot-time option along the lines of "try to assemble all arrays" or "only the following arrays <...>"
[01:27] <twb> I can't remember the details exactly, but that's where I'd be looking
[01:28] <doommaster> once it is back up all 10/10 disk will be there and it will work fine for the moment
[01:28] <doommaster> but it is no condition that a broken raid will brak the bootup
[01:29] <doommaster> the assumption that md0 is needed is just plain wrong
[01:29] <doommaster> if it was on fstab ok, then it would be needed
[01:30] <twb> fstab can't be read at that tmie
[01:30] <twb> the data is coded into the ramdisk's mdadm.conf
[01:31] <twb> That in turn is the contents of mdadm.conf as at the last time the ramdisk was compiled; if you messed with mdadm since then it will be wrong
[01:31] <twb> And as I said, it is probably in the default "assemble everything up front" mode
[01:47] <doommaster> twb: the mdadmconf is empty
[01:47] <doommaster> I never put anything in there
[01:47] <doommaster> I already did an uptate initramfs
[01:48] <twb> Hum
[01:49] <twb> If there is nothing in mdadm.conf it shouldn't try to assemble anything
[01:49] <twb> By which I specifically mean /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf within the ramdisk (*not* the root filesystem).
[01:51] <twb> http://paste.debian.net/152097/ <-- example
[01:52] <twb> Caveat -- I suppose ubuntu may have fucked it up since 10.04; if so I wouldn't know
[02:29] <doommaster> twb: it does an mdadm examine and autmatically builds raids now
[02:29] <doommaster> not only based on mdadm.conf
[02:30] <twb> Well that is bullshit
[02:30] <doommaster> which also is the mechanism which fails then -.-
[02:30] <doommaster> twb: seems so -.-
[02:30] <twb> I bet that was added by ubuntu, not debian
[02:30] <doommaster> hmm dunno but it seems debian too ;)
[04:22] <China_Jobs> how can you enable a ubuntu server to use a gui while connecting via ssh?
[04:23] <China_Jobs> currently its only running through bash
[04:23] <vagothcpp> China_Jobs, are you wanting a gui on your server
[04:24] <China_Jobs> now yes
[04:24] <vagothcpp> China_Jobs, Is the server internet connected?
[04:25] <China_Jobs> yes, Im able to connect with putty
[04:25] <qman__> in short, it requires installing a lot of software and is generally a bad idea
[04:25] <qman__> the better question is _why_ do you want a gui
[04:25] <vagothcpp> China_Jobs, Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerGUI
[04:26] <qman__> it won't make administering your server any easier, since all the tools you administer it with are command-line utilities anyway
[04:26] <twb> China_Jobs: are both ends of the SSH connection running ubuntu?
[04:27] <qman__> there are good reasons to do it, but the vast majority of people who ask that question don't have a good reason
[04:28] <China_Jobs> right now im using an opensuse box in city A and the server is ubuntu in city B.   An issue has come up, staff can't load files to a database, which besides pissing  me off is also stopping work.
[04:28] <qman__> and even beyond that, you shouldn't do it unless you fully grasp the security implications and know how to write a good firewall
[04:30] <twb> vagothcpp: that is an excellent article; pity I can't add it as an infobot entry to ubottu
[04:30] <China_Jobs> having chosen to use kde on my box, I know zip about ubuntu except for using it 4 years ago
[04:31] <qman__> indeed it is
[04:31] <vagothcpp> twb, and why is that?
[04:31] <twb> "may introduce unwanted DNS conflicts with a .local domain." -- while strictly correct, the .local domain is reserved for mDNS/DNS-SD use, so anyone already using it outside avahi gets what they deserve.
[04:31] <twb> vagothcpp: AFAIK ubottu restricts write operations to privileged users
[04:31] <qman__> yeah, except that microsoft has been using .local as a standard internal domain name since windows 2000
[04:32] <twb> Well that is fucking stupid
[04:32] <twb> Thanks for warning me
[04:32] <qman__> it's what windows servers default to and what all microsoft documentation says to use
[04:32] <vagothcpp> twb, how very annoying
[04:32] <qman__> I don't know which came first
[04:32] <qman__> but it's very, very annoying
[04:32] <twb> 2000 I think
[04:34] <qman__> in any case, I still don't know what you're trying to accomplish with a GUI
[04:34] <twb> He left
[04:34] <qman__> ah
[04:35] <twb> screen-profiles = byobu?
[05:24] <SpamapS> mtaylor: howdy pardner (he said, 10 hours later)
[05:24] <mtaylor> SpamapS: hehe
[05:24] <mtaylor> SpamapS: I was pinging to see if you wanted to hang out - I'm in LA
[05:24] <Darkwing> SpamapS: You going to SCALE next week?
[05:26] <SpamapS> mtaylor: I'm in Budapest. :-P
[05:26] <SpamapS> Darkwing: definitely!
[05:26] <SpamapS> mtaylor: aren't you headed to LCA?
[05:26] <mtaylor> SpamapS: oh, so you get to go to budapest but UDS has to be in Oakland?
[05:26] <Darkwing> SpamapS: Sweet, I'm working as staff this year. You still have that Oneiric T-shirt? :P:P
[05:26] <mtaylor> SpamapS: yup
[05:26] <SpamapS> mtaylor: haha yeah, Oaktown up in the hizzy
[05:27] <Darkwing> Yeah... Oakland vice San Fran? Really?
[05:27] <SpamapS> Darkwing: sadly I do, it sits on my bookshelf mocking my forgetfulness
[05:27] <samba35> i am trying to installed pop/imap using nginx on ubuntu 10.04 when i use
[05:27] <SpamapS> mtaylor: at least its not Santa Clara...
[05:27] <Darkwing> SpamapS: I'll be in LA on thursday. :)
[05:27] <mtaylor> SpamapS: yup. leaving for Oz tomorrow
[05:27] <Darkwing> For the weekend.
[05:27] <samba35> wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/nginx//ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[05:28] <mtaylor> SpamapS: well, sure. it's also not in Detroit... but isn't this the European turn for UDS?
[05:28] <samba35> it give error but when i use nightly it download file
[05:28]  * mtaylor grumbles and bitches
[05:28] <samba35> wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/nginx/nightly/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[05:29] <Darkwing> It's spring in Silicon Valley... Whos who is there every spring.
[05:29] <SpamapS> mtaylor: I think the desire was to give silicon valley a chance to show up.
[05:30] <mtaylor> SpamapS: sigh. silicon valley can come to the fall one - OR - they can fly somewhere which isn't f-ing Bay Area like the rest of us
[05:30] <SpamapS> mtaylor: also with the whole TV/tablet/etc. thing, this will allow Japanese and Taiwanese mfgr's easier access.
[05:30] <mtaylor> oh great
[05:30] <mtaylor> that makes me so happy
[05:30] <Darkwing> mtaylor: I was pushing for San Diego :P
[05:30] <SpamapS> San Diego was very close.
[05:30] <mtaylor> Darkwing: honestly, I would have been more on board for that
[05:30] <SpamapS> Apparently they just wouldn't budge on the cost of hotel rooms.
[05:30] <Darkwing> mtaylor: So would I... I live here :D
[05:31] <SpamapS> mtaylor: also I think there's an interest to change the order a bit so we are in Europe in the fall for a few years.
[05:31] <mtaylor> SpamapS: AH - ok, I was afraid we were going to do Oakland and then go back to Orlando
[05:31] <SpamapS> Part of the reason its always somewhere different is so it is convenient for different people each time.
[05:32] <SpamapS> mtaylor: jesus god no please
[05:32] <SpamapS> mtaylor: I don't think we've done anything to deserve Orlando... ever again.
[05:32] <Darkwing> I don't like Orlando either.
[05:33] <mtaylor> SpamapS: yeah. that was my concern. I thought we'd all of a sudden become all-US or even all-bay-area and I was going to cry
[05:35] <SpamapS> Darkwing: Orlando's mother doesn't even like Orlando.
[05:36] <Darkwing> SpamapS: Yeah... It's too humid and very very expensive.
[05:37] <SpamapS> and a **** hole
[05:37] <Darkwing> Heck, Riverside would be better.
[05:38] <SpamapS> Um, no
[05:38] <SpamapS> almost, but no. ;)
[05:38] <Darkwing> ;) I grew up there. :P:P
[05:38]  * Darkwing still votes for San Diego

[16:32] <samba35> sorry very basic question
[16:53] <pmatulis> samba35: yes, you install a package when you install a package.  see /var/cache/apt/archives
[16:54] <samba35> ok
[16:56] <pmatulis> samba35: btw, doing 'sudo apt-get clean' should empty that directory
[16:57] <samba35> ic
[16:57] <samba35> pmatulis, do you have any idea on apache reverse proxy
[16:59] <RoyK> samba35: I use squid for that
[17:00] <samba35> i have 2 systems @ home 1 is ubuntu server 10 and 1 box is utm
[17:01] <samba35> utm is unified threat managment i use ubuntu as a dmz and i want to setup reverse proxy so i can add another layer of security to web server and content security to web pages

[20:02] <axisys> wait! modinfo ipmi_si gives lots of output
[20:02] <axisys> hmm..
[20:02] <axisys> how do I load a module?
[20:02] <pmatulis> using modprobe
[20:02] <axisys> isn't it modprobe module_name?
[20:03] <pmatulis> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man8/modprobe.8.html
[20:03] <axisys> find /lib/modules -type f -name "ipmi_si.ko" finds it
[20:03] <axisys> /lib/modules/2.6.32-37-generic/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si.ko
[20:03] <axisys> so it is there
[20:23] <axisys> 2.6.32-37-server's ipmi_si works fine but 2.6.32-37-generic's ipmi_si fails to load
[20:26] <pmatulis> axisys: asking for info again...
[20:26] <axisys> pmatulis: i have two bugs now .. hehe
[20:35] <pmatulis> axisys: you're a lucky man
[20:35] <axisys> lol
[21:57] <druonysuse> is there a command I can run the check to temperature of my servers?
[22:02] <axisys> sensors
[22:02] <axisys> druonysuse: ^
[22:17] <druonysuse> axisys: that is the command I can use?
[22:17] <axisys> yep
[22:17] <axisys> as long as the lm-sensors pkg is installed
[22:18] <druonysuse> it is not installed
[22:18] <druonysuse> I dont think I should try to install it on this old 8.04 box
[22:18] <dvance> hello, I have a peculiar problem, possibly a bug.. with server 11.10 it boots to a black screen with a single blinking cursor in the top left corner. No login prompt nothing, sits there for hours. now if I hit ctrl+alt+f1 it takes me to tty1 and everything seems normal
[22:18] <axisys> druonysuse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[22:19] <druonysuse> I just don't want to introduce another variable when we are already haveing issues with it
[22:19] <dvance> does it with both, 64bit pxe install and 32bit iso install
[22:19] <dvance> if someone could just point me in the right direction, perhaps a bug report I was unable to find...
[22:20] <axisys> dvance: may be you are doing console=ttyS0 during boot ?
[22:21] <axisys> dvance: can you pastebin /etc/default/grub ?
[22:21] <dvance> one moment, thank you for the help
[22:21] <axisys> install pastebinit pkg and then cat /etc/default/grub | pastebinit
[22:23] <axisys> dvance: I am sorry but I have run or I will miss my bus .. I am sure someone here will help you sooner or later
[22:23] <dvance> well thank you.. it's a place to start

[22:58] <doommaster> those are my results on aesni
[22:58] <doommaster> about 4GB/s of md5 hashing :P
[22:58] <doommaster> and 2-3GB/s aes-cbc
[23:07] <dvance> figured it out
[23:09] <dvance> grub.cfg had 'vt.handoff=7' boot option, which would explain the blank screen with blinking cursor since this is a server and doesn't have X11 installed
[23:09] <dvance> thanks for the help axisys
[23:09] <dvance> I'll file bug if one isn't already
