twb$customer has ordered me to make their tomcat servlet "work under linux", and given me an allegedly working box with the servlet running under XP to work from.02:41
twbApparently the XP box has a "postgresql-9.0-801.jdbc4.jar" in its tomcat lib dir.  On Debian apt-file turns up a libpostgresql-jdbc-java: /usr/share/java/postgresql.jar, which sounds like what I want, but I can't find the same package under lucid -- why not?02:42
ajmitchtwb: probably because it was added well after lucid released02:46
ajmitchtwb: last release in debian changed the binary package name02:47
ajmitchit used to be libpg-java02:48
twbAh, it's just a different package name?  Thanks.  I should probably just install apt-file on a lucid server.02:48

kgeeI have 3 web servers, ubuntu, ubuntu, and mac on my LAN. I can get to each of them through localhost, yet only the mac server is available over the LAN. This leads me to believe there is some network blocking/firewall rule on the default ubuntu install that is preventing access. Can anyone confirm/deny this?14:09
EvilResistancekgee:  what're you running on the ubuntu servers?14:10
EvilResistanceby default, there's no firewall rules14:10
EvilResistance(but your network might be blocking it)14:10
kgeeEvilResistance: yeah, I'm trying to narrow down the problem but I'm hitting nothing but air here. The catch is that the ubuntu servers are virtual machines, and the router I have is a piece of garbage. However, since I can get to the mac server remotely I'm led to believe the router is not the culprit14:11
kgeeand the virtual machines have their own IP address over a bridged network adapter, so that usually lets things run smoothly14:11

stefgkennett: you don't "turn on" a DMZ, you are creating a subnet separate from the 192.168.x.x LAN. so the server needs a new IP, and this DMZ subnet needs to be publicly accessible. (which is what what a typical home router tries to prevent....)18:33

ubottuzentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04).18:36
kennettSo how can I set this up?18:36
kennettI use webmin.18:37
stefgsee above ... first check your routers docu how to create a DMZ, then you'll probably have to physically change the network wiring and put your server in that DMZ18:38
stefgkennett: BTW webmin isn't officically sanctioned for ubuntu,18:39
stefg!webmin18:39
ubottuwebmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system.18:39

Picialphanum: And to answer your question about the ec2 VPN, just use something to determine your ip address. If it points to the VPN, then your traffic is going through it.19:54
alphanumperhaps I should try google again19:54
alphanumI mean, I know that but I want to create a vpn via ec219:55

alphanumlaunch a micro instance; ubuntu openvps ami19:56
erichammondDo you want to communicate with your EC2 instances via a VPN? communicate with the Internet using a VPN to EC2 as a gateway out of your local firewall? something else?19:56
alphanumrun traffic from my home comp to aws ec2 vpn19:56
alphanumDoes that clear things up?19:57
erichammondalphanum: The basic process is (1) start an EC2 instance running Ubuntu, (2) install and configure the VPN like you would for any Ubuntu server.19:57
erichammondThere's no need to try to find an AMI that has VPN pre-installed.19:58
alphanumI have never set up a server in my life.19:58

michael_tnok21:37
michael_tnthat looks correct :-)21:38

drecutei want mails to be stored in a cifs mounted filesystem. How do I do this?22:07

erichammondI'm going to plug hiding 32-bit and instance-store unless the user specifically clicks to request seeing them.  If a new user wants to run Ubuntu on EC2, there's really just one AMI id needed right now for each region (Ubuntu 12.04 Precise, 64-bit, EBS boot) and making them dig for it in a list of dozens is cruel.22:47

eftepedeI have ubuntu-server 11.10. Tried to do release-upgrade to 12.04, but since it's OpenVZ guest on host with 2.6.18, everything just broke down.23:18
eftepedeIs there anything I can do?23:19
eftepedeWith most of my software I get:23:19

doctormoneftepede: reboot server, use newer kernel.23:22
eftepedeI can't.23:22
eftepedeIt's kernel on OpenVZ host.23:22
eftepedeNot my local server.23:22
eftepedeAnd I can't access OpenVZ host.23:23
doctormoneftepede: Then you're buggered I shouldn't wonder. you don't have ssh access?23:23
eftepedeI have.23:23
eftepedeMachine is not rebooted.23:23
doctormonThe reboot command wouldn't reboot? or it would reboot in a way that would break?23:24
eftepedeI suppose reboot is not a good idea now.23:24
eftepedeMachine won't start properly, I guess.23:24
doctormonDo you have much invested in it? Upgrading without being able to reboot = bad idea.23:25
eftepedeNot sure if I understand you correctly. I have the 'ability' to reboot.23:25
eftepedeI'm just worried, that system is too broken to start properly.23:26
* RoyK is tired and wants his servers and network to work a bit better23:26
eftepedeMy only idea now is to manualy change sources.23:27
doctormonRoyK: Have you tried putting the ethernet wires in diluted metal shavings? ;-)23:28
eftepedeBut will it perform a downgrade?23:28
doctormoneftepede: No, downgrade your machine manually if you have to. There isn't an automatic way to downgrade but if you spend all night on it, it can be done.23:28
doctormoneftepede: Or just accept that you've messed it up and try to recover a fresh install (somehow)23:29
eftepedeI can't - it's shell server for ~50 users, the last thing I want is to reinstall it ;-)23:29

qman__eftepede, unfortunately, as far as I know, there is no way to roll back an upgrade23:35
qman__you must manually remove and reinstall the old versions23:35
qman__which is a huge task for an entire server that's been upgraded23:35
qman__you should never do a release upgrade on a server that 1) isn't backed up 2) is in production 3) you don't have physical access to23:36
qman__and virtualization always throws another wrench in23:36
SpamapSutlemming: hey, I think I can say this with confidence after a few days.. the S3 mirrors are *fast*23:37
eftepedeqman__: I know the basics, really ;-) a) I have backed up most important things; b) it's my private machine on which I have some shell accounts for my friends, so it's just kind of 'production'; c) it's hard to have physical access to virtual machine ;-)23:38
eftepedeReinstall is still an option - but I want to avoid it.23:39
qman__IMO that will be easier23:40
eftepedehttp://pastebin.com/aJxx7GDw - it's when problems starred. Sorry for syntax, it's from screenlog :/23:41
eftepedeSo upgrading libc from 2.13 to 2.15 caused all this.23:42
qman__the problem is that running 12.04 means running a kernel much newer than the one you have23:43
qman__running your old kernel isn't an option with the right version of libc23:43
qman__and running an older version of libc means running lots of other new software won't work either23:43
eftepedeYup. Unfortunatelly as I'm not the owner of host machine, I can't upgrade.23:43
qman__so, in short, upgrading to 12.04 is not an option23:43
eftepedeNow I know it ;-)23:44
eftepedeI didn't know, that 2.6.18 will be too old and I need 2.6.2523:44
eftepedes/25/24/23:44
qman__the only way to restore your system is to remove all upgraded packages, and reinstall the packages they replaced23:44
qman__12.04 actually runs 3.223:44
qman__though that libc doesn't depend on such a new kernel, other things probably do23:45
eftepedeYes, I know. I have lot non-virtualized machines on 11.10 at work and I know, that they're using 3.x23:45
qman__2.6.18 is _really_ old though23:45
qman__even ubuntu 8.04 is running 2.6.2423:46
eftepedeI'm aware of that, too. Maybe I can ask OpenVZ-host owner to upgrade.23:46
eftepedeBut it will be followed by reboot of all virtual machines, mine included.23:46
eftepedeAnd I'm really afraid to reboot mine ;-)23:46
qman__it's probably hosed either way23:47
doctormonqman__: Agreed23:47
qman__only way I can see of fixing it is to boot a live environment and chroot, then go through manual dependency hell to downgrade23:47

doctormonAlthough you'll want to eat your own foot that do it again ;-)23:47
eftepedeI need to choose, if I want to have hours of this hell or days of hell restoring users accounts ;-)23:49
eftepedeAs my /home was not backed up and users were aware of this, I don't care about data.23:49
eftepedeBut they'll want their accounts back23:50
qman__keep in mind also that it won't be what it was before23:50
doctormoneftepede: And you might have run out of coffee by the end.23:51
eftepedeThe worst thing is, I have last cigarette and it's 2:00 am here, so I can't but another box ;-)23:52
qman__unless you've got a comprehensive list of all packages that you upgraded from, and all packages that you upgraded to, you're probably going to spend days, not hours23:53
qman__if not weeks23:53
eftepedeBut: I'm not afraid of that manual dependency hell. I'm working as system administrator, so it's kinda 'funny' problem for me to solve. Reinstall is just too easy. It MUST be the way to get thins working again ;-)23:53
eftepedes/thins/things/23:54
qman__it's always possible, the question is if it's worth it23:54
eftepedeAnd "I work as", excuse my bad grammar.23:54
