idealitiesHi, has anyone come accross a server simetimes auto reboot, and lighttpd without reponse after start about one hour, and sometimes the server didn't reponse for all services like kernel panic, but can not find any message about this in /var/log/* ?13:52
ahxcjbyou wouldn't13:55
ahxcjbyou will need to attach a remote debugger to the server in question13:56
ahxcjbcontact ubuntu support for details on how to perform this if you are unaware13:56
idealitiesremote debugger?13:58
JonEdneyWhen I log into my 12.04 server, it says "6 packages can be updated".  I run sudo apt-get upgrade and I get this "The following packages have been kept back: linux-headers-server, linux-image-server, linux-server.  3 not upgraded"14:17
JonEdneyIs sudo apt-get upgrade not the command?14:17
idealitiessometimes you need to mannuly sudo apt-get install them14:19
qman__no14:19
qman__you need apt-get full-upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade14:19
qman__the normal upgrade leaves those out as they require the installation of new packages14:20
JonEdneyAh, I didn't know that.14:20
JonEdneyfull-upgrade pulled invalid operation, dist-upgrade worked.  Thanks.14:21
txomon|homecan anyone explain me what is the aim of putting a "manual package selection" entry in the mini iso install, if it makes the installation fail ? (doesn't configure some packages correctly)14:48
txomon|homehow can I fill a bug against that?14:48
qman__txomon|home, that's not really a bug, manual package selection is an advanced option, and manually selecting the wrong packages can result in a broken system14:51
Resistanceindeed14:51
Resistance!crosspost | txomon|home14:51
ubottutxomon|home: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support.14:51
txomon|homeqman__, I marked lubuntu-core14:51
txomon|homeand just that14:51
txomon|homenothing more14:52
qman__in that case, everything that lubuntu-core does not depend on, was not selected14:52
txomon|homeI marked "Openssh-server" "Lubuntu minimal installation" and "Manual package installation"14:52
qman__undoubtedly leaving a lot of stuff missing14:52
txomon|homethen aptitude came to me14:52
txomon|homeand I pressed g14:53
txomon|homeqman__, dependencies where satisfied14:53
txomon|homeyou can replicate that14:54
txomon|homewas something wrong with xorg, but dont know exactly what14:54
txomon|homemore over, aptitude is designed in theory to satisfy dependencies, so unless you select incompatible packages, it should not crash14:56
qman__txomon|home, my point is, you didn't select other needed things14:56
txomon|homeqman__, do we agree that when you select something "Selecting Installation Components" dependencies are going to be satisfied?14:57
qman__txomon|home, yes, but just because dependencies are satisfied, doesn't mean your system will work as intended14:58
txomon|homeand that if you want to, apart from that, select manually one more package (for example git), you have to check the "Manual package installation"14:58
txomon|homeqman__, ... git package makes crash?14:58
txomon|home_any_ package makes crash!?14:59
txomon|homemoreover, if you don't touch anything, it crashes?14:59

Gallomimiapdtpatrick: why might i now be seeing this message? ssh: connect to host ***** port 22: Connection refused after last night's installation i feel like ssh has been halted. need a way to turn that back on16:39
pdtpatrickmake sure ssh is running16:39
pdtpatrickon the server you are trying to connect to .. you can run "dpkg -l openssh-server" to see if it installed. And also check whether port 22 is listening "netstat -lanp | grep :22"16:40
pdtpatrickif it isn't installed, then install the package. If it is installed and not listening, then run "sudo service ssh restart"16:40
Gallomimiaah yes. how am i to do this when i have no ssh access16:41
ahxcjbuse a lights out card16:42
Gallomimiathe server is 4000 miles away. YOU use a lights out card16:42
ahxcjbthen more fool you for putting yourself in that position16:42

JanCactually, some dedicated server / VPS providers use a cheaper alternative to iLO/IPMI cards: PXE booting of a rescue image...  ;)17:09

qman__there's plenty of options with much better service in the same price range as godaddy, and there's plenty of cheaper ones with the same or better service17:11

Gallomimiaso back on topic the bug in tasksel is awesome.17:12
* Resistance needs to dig around the factoids again17:12
Gallomimia"no i don't want to install something called openssh. ssh works fine" turns into " remove all ssh servers from the system"17:13
qman__not a bug, tasksel shows already selected tasks17:13
Resistance^17:13
qman__if you deselect something, that means remove it17:13
Resistanceyep17:13
Resistanceopenssh is required for SSHd17:13
Resistance(ssh daemon, aka SSH server)17:13
Resistanceor rather... the package openssh-server is needed... last i checked, anyways17:14
qman__yes, that's the provided and supported sshd17:14
JanCwell, there are at least 3 other ssh server implementations available in Ubuntu, I think  ;)17:14
JanCbut openssh-server is supported & most used17:15

Resistancein iptables / ip6tables, can IPv4 rules be applied to IPv6?18:09
Nafallodepends on the rule, I'd say.18:09
ResistanceNafallo:  take, for example. this IPv4 rule: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 222218:10
Resistance-j ACCEPT18:10
Resistanceblah, evil keyboarxd18:10
ResistanceNafallo:  take, for example. this IPv4 rule: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2222 -j ACCEPT18:10
Resistancewould that rule be able to be applied to ip6tables?18:11
Nafallolooks fine to me.18:11
Nafallowhy don't you just try it somewhere?18:11
Resistancebecause iptables is on the fritz locally18:11
Resistance(segv-ing, i think its not completely installed or something)18:12
Resistanceand if i'm using iptables-persistent, where do i store the rules?18:12
* Resistance likes persistent rules :P18:12
JanCResistance: does your FritzBox device have (proper) support for IPv6?18:16
JanCmost home routers have no or only broken support for IPv6, unfortunately18:17
JanCyou might be able to fix that using OpenWRT or such (if the device has enough RAM & CPU power)18:18
ResistanceJanC:  my home network doesn't support IPv6, but the University networks do18:19
Resistanceso i need Ipv4 and IPv6 rules18:19
Resistanceand i need em to match :P18:19
tarvidI have drupal installed at /var/www/drupal and 7 virtual sites symlinked at /var/www/drupal/sites; 6 work but the one virtual with the same name as the server throws an error;18:25
tarvidHTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.18:25
tarvidis that because the virtual has the same name as the server?18:26
JanCResistance: by "on the fritz", ar you referring to a Fritzbox device (something quite common in Europe), or something else like saying it's broken...? ;)18:28
ResistanceJanC:  sigsegvs18:28
Resistance<Resistance> because iptables is on the fritz locally18:28
Resistance<Resistance> (segv-ing, i think its not completely installed or something)18:28
Resistanceto show you the logs of exactly what i said18:29
JanCResistance: what I mean: is your PC segv'ing or a home router?18:30
ResistanceJanC:  the system itself, PC18:31
Resistancethe router isnt using iptables :P18:31
Resistance(because the router's a linksys entry-level router and i really dont have any method to control what software it uses)18:31
JanC"Fritz" happens to be the brand name of a range of linux-based broadband routers in continental Europe  ;)18:31
tarvidiptables is part of the kernel and is always installed18:31
Resistancetarvid:  its glitching up, with segvs, on here18:31
ResistanceJanC:  lol, 'fritz' is American slang for "It's not behaving"18:32
* Resistance should have been more precise18:32
JanCResistance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FRITZ!Box  ;)18:33
Resistanceheh18:33
ResistanceJanC:  before this router, i had a server box sitting as the gateway, but then it went and fizzled (it literally caught fire because there's not enough AC here at this location)18:33
ResistanceAC = Air Conditioning18:34
JanCugh18:34
Resistanceyep, that wasnt a fun day18:35
JanCResistance: did you try using ufw ?18:35
ResistanceJanC:  nope, dont like UFW.  not precise enough for my uses of iptables.18:36
JanC(it should do the right thing for IPv6, after you enable it in the ufw config18:36
JanCah18:36
ResistanceJanC:  i think i'll just reinstall, this might be a botched upgrade-in-place causing iptables to explode18:36
JanCI'd say iptables exploding is a security issue no matter what18:37
JanCso please report it before doing a e-install18:37
Resistanceyeah, but it didnt do this on my clean-install Ubuntu 12.04 desktop18:37
JanCre-install18:37
Resistanceso i know the iptables works normally18:37
JanCdoesn't matter18:37
JanCit should never ever segfault18:37
* Resistance doesnt have the time to report this as a bug right now18:37
Resistanceindeed18:37
Resistancebut i've had this happen with most programs 85% of the upgrade-in-place upgrades18:38
Resistancethis is why i prefer clean installs :P18:38
JanCmaybe make a backup of your config and report from a VM in the future, or something18:38
Resistancemhm18:38
Resistanceactually, i dont think its segv=ing on iptables at all...18:39
* Resistance just noticed a new issue18:39
Resistanceeven if i type 'sh' it segv's18:39
* Resistance wonders if this is a really botched upgrade in place18:39
JanCResistance: my main system has been upgraded in place since 2006 or so  ;)18:39
JanCResistance: broken glibc or such?  ;)18:39
ResistanceJanC:  well this is the sandbox environment, not the production server :P18:39
Resistancemight be18:39
Resistance(the production server's still Lucid)18:40
JanCmight be some plugin too18:40
Resistancehmm18:40
Resistancecould be18:40
JanCtry to find that out18:40
Resistancemight do that, but as this sandbox needs to be online in Precise to test the migrations from Lucid to Precise that were ordered from someone far above my pay-grade, i have to get this operational by work-day tomorrow18:41
Resistance(so before morning otmorrow)18:41
JanCpam, nsswitch, etc. all support plugins that might cause issues possibly18:41
JanCso if your server has anything custom...18:42
Resistanceshouldn't, apart from hardware18:42
Resistancewhich might be a breaking point18:42
JanCbugs can be subtle & weird18:43
Resistancei know right?18:44
* Resistance is on the BUgSquad and has some really oddball bugs in his triage duties18:44
JanCI remember there was a bug in Ubuntu that only showed up on certain thursdays or something like that, for example  ;)18:44
JanChaha, you sure must have seen weird stuff then18:44
Resistancemhm18:46
Resistancefew things that were caused by the leftovers from Debian that were synced to Precise but never checked18:46
Resistance:P18:46
Resistances/few/and a few/18:46
JanCthe bug I'm talking about was because of the way OOo created PDF files triggered a bug in CUPS (or ghostscript?) on certain file creation dates, or something like that  ;)18:48
Resistanceah lol18:49
JanCthe people who ever found that bug should get a medal for it  ;)18:49
Resistancethat's a wierd one :P18:49
Resistanceand i agree18:49
Resistancealthough i've got a few bugs in my day18:49
Resistanceand gotten a few feature-request bugs pushed into Debian :P18:49
* Resistance refers to the patch he made that closed an LP and a Debian bug/feature request to have PHP use unix sockets by default instead of listening on 127.0.0.1:900018:50
Resistanceand it was included in Debian :P18:50
JanCnice18:50
Resistancewell... for the 5.4.x series18:50
Resistance(which isnt in Ubuntu yet, but should be)18:50
Resistance(since 5.3.x is semi-oldish)18:50
JanCmaybe you can request it for -backports?18:50
Resistancenah, i'm talking for Quantal18:51
Resistancei've got a version of 5.4 in a PPA18:51
Resistancebut QUantal should update18:51
Resistances/PPA/private repository/18:51
JanCif it's in Debian, it should go into Quantal automatically18:51
Resistanceits not in Sid though18:52
Resistancelast i checked at least18:52
Resistancecan ubottu check debian repos?18:52
JanCyou can check yourself on packages.debian.org  ;)18:53
Resistanceyeah, but i'm lazy :P18:53
Resistance(and i'm upgrading ffox plugins)18:53
Resistancetesting: 5.4.0-318:54

RoyKyep21:27
RoyKwhat about it?21:27
KlackonI installed 12.04 LTS, vanilla install.. and I cannot configure it to honor "search" paramater in the resolv.conf file21:28
RoyKcan you pastebin resolv.conf?21:28
Klackonare you familier with resolv.conf and the /etc/network/interfaces file ?21:29

RoyKlooks good - what happens if you try to resolve a dns entry? try 'host somehost' where 'somehost' exists in that zone21:33
Klackonthe "xxxx.yconnect.local" hosts are not accessible with their names21:34
RoyKcan you resolve them with 'host xxxx'?21:34
RoyKthat's a direct dns request21:34
RoyKstart there21:34
Klackonthe "xxxx.yconnect.net" work just fine.. in face they work even if I were to take out the "search" line... and even the "nameserver" line.. which is really weird.21:34
Klackonsee here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/986215/21:35
Klackonso the dns server is working and responsing to the query, but resolv.conf is not able to do it's magic21:36
RoyKsong.yconnect.local.yconnect.local has address 10.1.10.10 <-- do you administer this dns server? looks like it's misconfigured21:36
Klackona .ha.. so a bind mistake then ?21:36
RoyKlooks like you have $ORIGIN yconnect.local and then given song.yconnect.local as the hostname, so that $ORIGIN is added after that21:37
Klackonbind files: http://paste.ubuntu.com/986218/21:37
Klackonshould I delte line 33 fron my db.yconnect.local  ?21:39
KlackonOMG... I am missing a trailing "." in my $ORIGIN directive.21:40
RoyK:)21:40
KlackonOMF*********G.  I wasted my whole weekend on a ".".. 4 reinstalls.21:42
KlackonI will never forget this!21:42
RoyK:)21:42
RoyKsingle character errors are classic21:42
KlackonI am humbles RoyK21:42
ResistanceRoyK:  i know, right?21:42
Resistance:P21:42
KlackonI am humbled!!! thank you!21:42
RoyKnp :)21:42
Klackonit took you 15 seconds.... thank you.. really... you are a genius!21:43
ResistanceRoyK:  who decides what gets included in ubuntu server, in terms of server packages (such as php5)?  and if you can answer, do you believe php5 will be synced to Quantal at some point?21:43
Resistanceversion 5.4.x of php521:44
* Resistance was not specific enough21:44
RoyKerm - I don't quite follow what parts of php5 thaat gets in21:44
RoyKseems 5.3 is in precise21:45
Resistancemhm21:45
Resistancebut a few days later 5.4.x appeared in sid21:45
Resistanceso since 5.4.x is in sid, would that get included into Quantal?21:45
* Resistance isnt certain which the dev-release repos sync from during the scheduled syncs21:46
RoyKto be honest, I don't know21:46
KlackonI do hav another question for you.. however... even if I delte all references to my 127.0.0.1 local bind server from the /etc/network/interfaces file, and /etc/resolvconf files.., ubuntu is still able to tell that a dns server i srunning locally.  how does ubuntu know21:46
Resistancei'll poke -devel, then, they might know21:46
Resistanceor +121:46
RoyKKlackon: no idea :þ21:47
RoyKResistance: what's new in php5.4?21:48
KlackonQuestion 1: Ubuntu uses the 127.0.0.1 as dns server, even if it not specified in the /etc/resolv.conf file (or config files) or even in the /etc/network/interfaces file.21:48
ResistanceRoyK:  apart from some security updates, and changes in the default confs for fpm?21:48
RoyKfpm?21:48
Resistance!info php5-fpm21:49
ubottuphp5-fpm (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (FPM-CGI binary). In component universe, is optional. Version 5.3.10-1ubuntu3 (precise), package size 3055 kB, installed size 8135 kB21:49
RoyKk21:49
KlackonQuestion 2: Even if I use the directive "dns-nameserver 127.0.0.1 8.8.8.8" in the /etc/network/interfaces file, /etc/resolv.conf only gets the "nameserver 127.0.0.1" entery... ubuntu chews out the 8.8.8.8 entry.. any ideas ?21:49
RoyKResistance: perhaps someone has a php 5.4 ppa?21:50
* RoyK just bought a new watch http://karlsbakk.net/bilder/ny-klokke.jpg22:30
jacobwgDoes anyone know how to set the default gateway interface?  My laptop (running Ubuntu server) keeps choosing eth0 as the default gateway and I want it to choose wlan022:31
jacobwgBasically, eth0 connects to a LAN-only network with no internet access and wlan0 connects to a wifi network with internet access.22:34
jacobwgBut, it keeps choosing eth0 as the default gateway22:34
RoyKjacobwg: hm.. usually it should choose the nic automatically after the network on which the default gateway is situated22:37
RoyKjacobwg: what are the ip addresses of eth0/wlan0?22:37
jacobwgRoyK: eth0 - 10.0.1.3, wlan0 - 192.168.137.13222:37
jacobwgRoyK: local traffic works as expected, however route -n shows 0.0.0.0 -> eth022:38
RoyKand default gateway is set to what?22:38
jacobwgRoyK: I would assume eth0 as there's that 0.0.0.0 -> 10.0.1.122:38
jacobwgI tried adding a gateway line in /etc/network/interfaces, but as wlan0 is configured via dhcp, I'm not sure if that did anything22:39
RoyKjacobwg: can you pastebin 'netstat -rn'?22:40
jacobwgRoyK: Sure, one sec22:40
=== Gallomimia_ is now known as Gallomimia
jacobwgRoyK: http://pastebin.com/d2xgsNeW22:41
jacobwgI think I want that first line to read 192.168.137.1 instead of 10.0.1.122:42
RoyKyep, that makes perfectly sense22:42
RoyK10.0.1.1 is available on eth0 because that's the nic that has access to that network22:42
jacobwgRight, but don't I want that first line (default route) to go to 192.168.137.1 on wlan0 instead of eth022:43
RoyKthen set default gateway to 192.168.137.122:44
jacobwgRoyK: I tried changing it via ip route add default via 192… but it reset on reboot22:44
RoyKit's set to 10.0.1.1  now22:44
RoyKip route is a runtime thing22:45
RoyKis this machine configured with dhcp?22:45
jacobwgYes22:45
RoyKthen change that22:45
=== Gallomimia_ is now known as Gallomimia
jacobwgGo static on the interface?22:45
RoyKyep22:45
jacobwgHmm… I guess that's okay… we shall see how my network likes it.22:46
RoyKdhcp and lots of nics doesn't mix very well22:46
jacobwgRoyK: okay, so now it won't create the network - it is a wifi network22:50
jacobwgRoyK: I'll pastebin the interfaces file22:50
jacobwgRoyK: still working to get it back on the network so I can copy and paste the file...22:54
RoyKjacobwg: there's some iwconfig/interfaces magick that needs to be done to make it work without dhcp22:55
jacobwgRoyK: Here's the file http://pastebin.com/14ufeiT822:56
jacobwgRoyK: if I take eth0 down via ifdown eth0, then internet works…22:57
RoyKjacobwg: I don't think using dhcp in combination with static will work too well22:57
jacobwgRoyK: so, set both static?22:58
RoyKyep22:58
jacobwgRoyK: and so I suppose the eth0 sec ion would not have a gateway line?22:59
RoyKthere should be only one gateway22:59
RoyKdefault gatway is like "if you don't know what to do, go here!"23:00
jacobwgRoyK: WOW, it works (with both static) - thanks for all the help!23:00
RoyK:)23:02
jacobwgKnowing the wifi network setup, something will probably explode in the next few hours (we're using a Win7 computer with internet connection sharing to a cellular card and a wifi router acting as a bridge with routing disabled), but for now it's working.23:03
jacobwgEvery time we want to make changes to the wifi network settings, we have to reset the router so we can login to the admin area again :)23:04
jacobwgHere's another question - can I setup an autofs mount of a network share of of / ?23:41
jacobwgI want /folder to be mapped to a network share23:41
jacobwgI can get /folder/folder working, but not just /folder23:41
jacobwgBasically trying to do what someone is asking here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=773986323:42
