| SHOVELL | i have a apache server setup but how to share the files so they are acessable online? | 07:16 |
| SHOVELL | is it that i have to have a "site" or can i just tell it to use a folder and display the content | 07:17 |
| SHOVELL | http://80.86.81.136/repo/ | 07:17 |
| SHOVELL | like this site^^ | 07:17 |
| RoyK | SHOVELL: that's just setup using dir_index, nothing magick, but that won't allow you to update the files. I'd use ftp or ftp-over-ssh or perhaps samba or nfs or even afp | 07:41 |
| SHOVELL | i have a way to update the files that is not the problem dir_index? | 07:43 |
| SHOVELL | ...nvm | 07:43 |
| SHOVELL | ok yeah dir_index??? | 07:44 |
| SHOVELL | never mind i think i got it figured out | 07:46 |
| Canadian1296 | Apache question: Is it possible, in digest authentication, to add an account that is valid for all realms? | 08:04 |
| sirdeiu | SHOVELL: if you have your apache server already set up all you need to do is to do a symbolic link to the folder where you keep the files you want to access. For example: ln -s /filestosharefolder /var/www . Then your files would be accesible by the following url: http://your.ip/filestosharefolder | 09:51 |
| sirdeiu | that is the quick way. | 09:51 |
| SHOVELL | thank you | 09:52 |
| Neikius | hello someone who knows about grub has a few seconds? | 11:40 |
| Neikius | I've got a possibly broken grub install after updating, not sure how to check: the story: apparently I have LVM devices that are broken, grub tried probing them during update | 11:40 |
| Neikius | and ofc it hanged | 11:40 |
| Neikius | now can I exclude that? I dont have the devices.map file... grub is 1.98 | 11:41 |
| Neikius | on ubuntu 10.4 | 11:41 |
| Neikius | so what can I do with grub that fails to create device map? | 12:15 |
| nibalizer | Neikius: so do you boot as far as the emergency root shell thing? or does your box fail at grub? | 12:20 |
| woutervddn | exit | 12:21 |
| Neikius | we will see | 12:21 |
| Neikius | I just rebootet | 12:21 |
| Neikius | *rebooted... after fixing this thing I think | 12:21 |
| Neikius | I had faulting multipathed devices freezing grub-probe and hence it never updated sucessfully | 12:21 |
| Neikius | I guessed it won't boot, but I could not be sure. Also I am sitting at the remote pc with servers locked away so now I can pray | 12:22 |
| ubuntu | 2 | 12:24 |
| ubuntu | act 1 | 12:26 |
| ubuntu | help | 12:26 |
| nibalizer | Neikius: you have boot outside lvm ya? | 12:26 |
| ubuntu | srr thought something was wrong | 12:26 |
| Neikius | yep | 12:27 |
| Neikius | duno why it even checks that damn lvm | 12:27 |
| Neikius | why does it do config from scratch every time... | 12:28 |
| Neikius | so much potential for fail | 12:28 |
| Neikius | I am lucky, forgot kvm password ... machine is up | 12:28 |
| Neikius | though this leaves a bad aftertaste... I had to kill processes manually, I had to intervene on several levels to get the update finish; the cause is in multipath though | 12:29 |
| epifanio | hi ALl | 12:31 |
| epifanio | i'm tring to set-up a web app on a ubuntu server (lucid) , but i'm having some problems ... | 12:31 |
| epifanio | i tried to set up a trac instance, it seems to work .. but when i load it i see it fails to load the css style and all the links are broken | 12:32 |
| Neikius | funny thing is, when one disk in iscsi box crashes it rebuilds the array which is ok, but it gives a ton of I/O errors that cause devices to pull down, after that there is no way to get em back up - only restart helps | 12:32 |
| epifanio | then i switched to redmine ... i was thinking of a trac issue .. but the same .. no css loded and broken link | 12:32 |
| epifanio | the machine is : http://aquarius.tw.rpi.edu/projects/ecoop/epy http://aquarius.tw.rpi.edu/projects/ecoop/redmine | 12:33 |
| epifanio | you can see the bad behavioure :( | 12:33 |
| epifanio | i'm clueless, i just received the login permision on that machine .. it is running on a Vserver .. and i need vpn to access it trough ssh | 12:34 |
| epifanio | i'm used to setup trac on debian without any problem, i guess it should be the same on ubuntu. or maybe something worng on the virtual server ? | 12:35 |
| epifanio | plese, many many thanks for any help! | 12:35 |
| Neikius | seems like web site root is wrong? | 12:36 |
| Neikius | it tries to load resources from http://aquarius.tw.rpi.edu/redmine | 12:36 |
| epifanio | every page i need to add /projects/ecoop/ to got the page loaded (without css) | 12:36 |
| epifanio | yes! :( how to fix the web/root ? | 12:37 |
| Neikius | dont have no knowlege regarding trac | 12:37 |
| Neikius | but it is usually somewhere in settings | 12:37 |
| epifanio | i guess it is an apache iisse | 12:37 |
| Neikius | or website config issue | 12:38 |
| Neikius | i have one trac somewhere let me check a bit, but still I am no expert on this | 12:38 |
| Neikius | on the other hand, I have problems waking up 2 kvm machines after update... guess they BROKE CONFIG with update | 12:39 |
| Neikius | and that is on LTS ubuntu! a disgrace | 12:39 |
| Neikius | safe-upgrade should not break stuff | 12:39 |
| Neikius | now I am disinclined to update ever again | 12:39 |
| Neikius | maybe the config TracUriRoot? | 12:41 |
| epifanio | Neikius: so you are using mod python | 12:44 |
| epifanio | i was using cgi | 12:44 |
| epifanio | let me try if it helps | 12:44 |
| Neikius | meh | 12:46 |
| Neikius | probably not its just random guessing | 12:46 |
| Neikius | but you definetely got some mappings wrong somewhere | 12:46 |

| yann_ | hello! I'm trying to install vagrant on ubuntu lucid, but it complains about an older version of rubygems... actually after some investigation I found this: yann@mandragor:~$ /usr/bin/gem1.8 -v 1.3.5 < is this normal behaviour? | 18:54 |
| qman___ | yann_, while I don't know about rubygems in particular, remember that lucid is almost two years old and will have major software versions of the same age | 18:57 |
| yann_ | agreed, but as there is a package rubygems-1.8, I thought it would be rubygems 1.3? is there maybe a package I can install, to then update "alternatives" ? | 18:58 |
| yann_ | it's really unlucky, it asks for >=1.3.6 and I have 1.3.5 :( | 18:59 |
| qman___ | unfortunately I don't know enough about that software to answer that, but you may be able to update by enabling the backports repository, or there may be a PPA you can use | 19:02 |
| yann_ | it seems I'm being lucky using Morgan Mackenzie's backport :) | 19:04 |
| qman___ | http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/rubygems | 19:04 |
| qman___ | doesn't look like it's in the backports repository | 19:04 |

| hex20dec | Hi everyone, I'm having a problem with my mail, when I send messages, the return-path header is set to "Return-Path: <www-data@example.com>". How do I change the 'www-data' to 'admin'? I even added the return-path header to my php script but seems it isn't the problem. Anyone know what the problem is? | 20:37 |
| RoyK | hex20dec: that's set by whatever generates the email message | 20:38 |
| hex20dec | RoyK, so how would I change that? | 20:39 |
| RoyK | change the script or app or whatever doing the emailing | 20:41 |
| hex20dec | I use postfix | 20:41 |
| hex20dec | RoyK, I'm really new to Linux. You mind please elaborating a bit more on how to do it? | 20:42 |
| RoyK | hex20dec: what is it that generates that email? | 20:43 |
| hex20dec | I use PHP as my scripting and postfix as mailing. | 20:44 |
| RoyK | then just set the from field in php | 20:45 |
| RoyK | there are docs about that all over the net | 20:46 |
| hex20dec | That is the problem. | 20:47 |
| hex20dec | I did it in php, and nothing happens. | 20:47 |
| hex20dec | It seems to not be the PHP. | 20:47 |
| RoyK | you need to create the envelope correctly in php | 20:47 |
| hex20dec | I've done it before with php and everything was working fine, with my shared hosting, but now that I have a VPS, it's not working. | 20:47 |
| RoyK | it's no difference | 20:48 |
| hex20dec | Envelope? | 20:48 |
| RoyK | email envelope | 20:48 |
| RoyK | it's called that | 20:48 |
| RoyK | and btw, it's not a server question - try on ##php ;) | 20:48 |
| hex20dec | Okay, thank you. | 20:48 |
| hex20dec | Okay, I'll look that up, because I saw somewhere envelope as well, and I didn't think it's that, and now that you mention it, I guess it is. | 20:48 |
| hex20dec | So, thanks. | 20:49 |
| RoyK | erm... when I chose "no" to automatic updates during install, how can I enable this later? | 21:02 |
| guntbert | RoyK: I'd say enable the corresponding lines in /etc/apt/sources.list -- but I didn't look if they are there already | 21:07 |
| caution | if a standard system program is deleted or missing from /usr/bin, how should I get it back? | 21:12 |

| guntbert | caution: reinstall? | 21:17 |

| guntbert | caution: I see - that only works with aptitude | 21:20 |
| guntbert | caution: does .. install work? | 21:21 |
| caution | no | 21:21 |
| guntbert | caution: definitely don't remove the core-utils!! | 21:22 |
| caution | yeah, doesn't sound like a good idea | 21:22 |
| guntbert | caution: sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude reinstall should be ok | 21:23 |
| guntbert | alhtough aptitude has difficulties with the multi-arch feature | 21:24 |
| caution | I don't have aptitude | 21:26 |
| caution | if I install aptitude is it going to play nicely with apt and all the other existing stuff? | 21:27 |

| caution | oh cool | 21:30 |
| caution | works | 21:33 |
| guntbert | nice :) | 21:33 |
| guntbert | caution: how in the world did you manage to lose that? (if you don't mind) | 21:34 |
| caution | I was just curious about how to repair | 21:34 |
| caution | I read that some malware modifies or delete them | 21:35 |
| caution | I know it's important to completely reinstall if compromised though | 21:35 |
| caution | before someone tells me :D | 21:36 |
| guntbert | ah - you did not really lose them - but otoh if they are compromised what makes you believe that apt-get is still ok? | 21:36 |
| caution | it might not be ok but it's worth a try | 21:37 |
| guntbert | caution: no, it might pull in completely different things | 21:38 |

| philpem | Is there any way I can get a Preseeded installation to run something (say, a small script which calls apt-get install) on the first boot, then never again? | 22:51 |
| philpem | I'm trying to install phpMyAdmin and it obviously won't work in the installer because it wants to set up the MySQL database... bit tricky when mysqld isn't running. | 22:51 |
| kklimonda | philpem: add it to /etc/rc.local | 22:53 |
| kklimonda | (then in the script make it remove itself from rc.local when no longer needed) | 22:54 |
| philpem | kklimonda, as a late-command? hm. fair enough. | 22:54 |
| philpem | just wondering if there was a better way | 22:54 |
| kklimonda | philpem: create a package that removes itself? ;) | 22:57 |
| ruben23 | hi guys | 22:57 |
| kklimonda | but that wouldn't really be much easier | 22:57 |
| * kklimonda is surprised that dbconfig-common doesn't handle that | 22:57 | |
| ruben23 | guys please help me, on my hosted server - i got a modified kernel whihc i cant install the kernel source_ how do i revet it back to dafeult kernel of ubuntu server.. | 22:59 |
| ruben23 | please help me gusy | 22:59 |
| kklimonda | ruben23: what do you mean by a "hosted server"? | 22:59 |
| philpem | kklimonda, dbconfig handles most things... it just can't deal with situations where mysqld isn't running, and you're installing an app which needs it :-/ | 23:00 |
| ruben23 | kklimonda: the server is hosted on a datacenter- now the issue is i cant install linux-source coz the kernel is modified not the default i want to revet it back to ubuntu server default kernel. | 23:00 |
| ruben23 | kklimonda: the server is hosted on a datacenter- now the issue is i cant install linux-source coz the kernel is modified not the default i want to revet it back to ubuntu server default kernel. | 23:01 |
| kklimonda | ruben23: it really depends on how this stuff is handled by the datacenter you have it installed in, and by what do you mean by server - is it a dedicated machine? if so have you tried installing a distro-provided kernel? | 23:01 |
| kklimonda | ruben23: maybe they provide source and headers for their kernel? | 23:02 |
| kklimonda | if it's a VPS - what kind of VPS is it? you can use stock kernel with xen and kvm VMs as long as you are provided with a way to change boot settings | 23:02 |
| kklimonda | philpem: well, I wouldn't call it "handling" then | 23:03 |
| ruben23 | kklimonda:i just want to remove the existing kernel and replaced it with default kernel of ubuntu server..how..? http://pastebin.com/r51zWhD3 | 23:03 |
| ruben23 | its dedicated im sure | 23:03 |
| philpem | kklimonda, :) | 23:04 |
| philpem | kklimonda, thing is, I want to be able to bring up a LAMP server using PXE, using a custom repo, and install everything I need to run a web app. turn-key, basically. | 23:04 |
| kklimonda | ruben23: have you tried installing a stock kernel and updating grub entries? | 23:04 |
| kklimonda | philpem: yeah, I get you | 23:04 |
| kklimonda | I wonder if it's some upstart issue | 23:05 |
| kklimonda | (i.e. if mysql is running during installation on Debian) | 23:06 |
| ruben23 | kklimonda:i havent yet started at all, im wating for your instruction before i start now | 23:06 |
| kklimonda | ruben23: I can't really help you with your problem - I don't know if Kimsufi (which is OVH reseller afair?) supports running stock distribution kernels, or if they provide source and headers for their custom kernels (they should). I can tell you the generic description (install a correct linux-image package, make sure that grub entries are updated) but it may as well break your server setup if the box is depending on some custom kernel | 23:10 |
| kklimonda | code | 23:10 |
| philpem | kklimonda, mysql *isn't* running during install | 23:11 |
| kklimonda | (you should just try to do it and see what happens - of course assuming it's testing server) | 23:11 |
| kklimonda | philpem: yes - but I wonder if that's an issue under Debian too | 23:11 |
| philpem | kklimonda, that's the problem -- phpmyadmin wants to create its database (to track DB relations and settings) but can't because MySQL isn't running :-/ | 23:11 |
| philpem | ah. | 23:11 |
| kklimonda | I'm just often curious about weird stuff like that | 23:13 |
| kklimonda | "did we break it in Ubuntu? Or why is it this way? What can be preseeding used for in this case? configuring phpmyadmin for a remote DB? But what about..." | 23:13 |
| philpem | indeed... | 23:14 |
| philpem | just need to figure out how to create a virtual machine 'template' for libvirt now. | 23:17 |
| philpem | something I can copy, give a unique MAC address to and kick off a Cobbler / Orchestra auto install | 23:18 |
| kklimonda | would not setting any mac make it generate a new one? | 23:21 |
| kklimonda | (it does that when you create network using xml files) | 23:23 |
