phillwHi guys, has splash screen removed from server?00:21
xnoxphillw: are you using LUKS+LVM? =)03:25
phillwxnox: I have a dedicated server running under CentOS, it is LVM for the hard drive, but I have not used LUKS on a VM within it.03:27
xnoxphillw: interesting.03:28
xnoxphillw: we have this bug 103009403:28
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1030094 in plymouth "LVM encrypted, screen turned off after grub" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/103009403:28
xnoxphillw: which despite having luks sounds similarish.03:29
phillwxnox: my problem was / is that server install fails at splash screen.... you know.... the 4 dots bit.... As to why the heck that is on a server boot...pass. I cannot do more testing until that issue is resolved :(03:30
xnoxphillw: ah that... well... i do not know, sorry. #ubuntu-server?03:31
phillwThe dedicated server is a remote one. I can ssh -X into it, I can drop in via virt-manager; but I cannot get 12.10 to start up (12.04 runs fine).03:32
njinnallo, is cdimage down ?07:44

phillwhi guys, is the server transfer done?16:15
Laneyno, but parts are16:16
Laneywhat are you interested in?16:16
phillwLaney: zsync is timing out with [phillw@piglet ~]$ zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20120819/quantal-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync16:23

phillwtrying http gives.. Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to cdimage.ubuntu.com16:23
stgrabercdimage works from here16:24
phillwstgraber: I'm just following up an email on QA, I have the same issue. any ideas?16:25
tumbleweedit was down until fairly recently (according to my complaining cron mail)16:25
tumbleweedfairly recently being 3 hours ago or so16:25
phillwfairly recent being two minutes ago.16:26
phillwOK, so how long will the relocation take?  When will the servers be back on track?16:37
phillwtwo minutes ago on email.16:38
phillwsorry guys, you are the only channel I can ask on. It is from QA, but you look after the servers!16:38
phillwstgraber: can you check grabbing a couple of iso images from http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/219/builds16:45
phillwI've tried a couple at random and they are a fail.16:46
tumbleweedhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/20120819/quantal-server-amd64.iso.zsync works fine for me16:49
phillwtumbleweed: can you try http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily/20120819/quantal-alternate-i386.iso&usg=AFQjCNEBoafSRvng93U55R6hOSG_opiMbA16:50
phillwoops, long name, let me track it back!16:50
phillwhttp://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/219/builds/21490/downloads16:50
stgraberdownloads fine here16:51
* tumbleweed sees no trobule either16:51
phillwHmm, any ideas why more than one person cannot use them?16:52
tumbleweeddid the machine change IP address?16:52
* tumbleweed sees a 10 minute TTL on the DNS record, so assuming it wasn't recently lowered, that shouldn't be much of an issue...16:53
phillw'thinks' - clear cache from browser would help, but at CLI zsync it is a bit more problemitcle.16:53
phillwtumbleweed: [phillw@piglet ~]$ zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/20120819/quantal-server-amd64.iso.zsync16:57

phillwso, I cannot 'see' cdimage.ubuntu.com16:58
tumbleweedphillw: getent hosts cdimage.ubuntu.com16:58
phillwtumbleweed: bash: getents: command not found16:59
tumbleweedsingular16:59
phillw getent cdimage.ubuntu.com17:00
phillwUnknown database: cdimage.ubuntu.com17:00
phillwTry `getent --help' or `getent --usage' for more information.17:00
tumbleweedleft out hosts ):17:00
phillwdon't you hate a n00bie :P17:00
phillwyup, that worked.17:01
phillwLet me go tell the people on ubuntu QA mailing list of the fix. but, it is a fairly major bug!17:01
tumbleweedthat wasn't a "fix" just an attempt to understand what your problem is17:02
tumbleweedbut debugging this over IRC is not likely to be particularly profitable17:02
phillwtumbleweed: no, it was a fix... As it worked perfectly for QA people until recently, then something quite fundamental changed.17:03
micahgumm...a datacenter move perhaps17:03
tumbleweed:)17:04
phillwmicahg: indeed, which has happened this weekend. Still, better to alert people early before the channels melt down with bug reports :)17:04
phillwtumbleweed: micahg is this okay to send?17:11
phillwHi guys and gals,17:11
phillwover the weekend the "behind the scenes" team were busy. You may find that you cannot upload / zsync etc. If this happens please issue17:11
phillwgetent hosts cdimage.ubuntu.com17:11
phillwIt will refresh your local cache for cdimage area.17:11
phillwRegards,17:11
phillwPhill.17:11
micahggetent just queries a DB...17:12
phillwmicahg: So for us lesser mortals, does it work? It did for me.17:13
elmono it won't "work"17:13
elmocdimage is behind a DNS round robin rotation that only returns 1 answer at a time17:14
phillwelmo: it did for me.17:14
tumbleweedphillw: getent does nothing, I just wanted to see what the output was17:14
elmophillw: no, it didn't17:14
elmophillw: all that happened is you happened to change to the working server17:14
elmocompletely unrelated to your getent command17:14
micahgelmo: I would think with the TTL, by now, any old entries should've been refreshed, right?17:14
elmomicahg: it's not an old entries problem17:14
elmoor related to the DC move17:14
elmoone of the servers is just dead17:14
micahgorly?  ok17:14
elmoI'll stab it in the face17:15
micahgelmo: thanks17:15
elmo(well, I mean the DC made it more visible, cdimage is running at reduced capacity, so a dead server is more obvious - but it's not the root cause)17:16
tumbleweedelmo: out of interest, why return only 1 answer at a time? (it makes it entirely non-obvious that there's round-robbining behind the scenes)17:16
phillwI'll go and have a ciggie while you guys work out an official answer for the QA people which is guaranteed to work.17:16
elmotumbleweed: because Microsoft broke DNS17:16
tumbleweedheh17:17
nigelbnice17:17
elmotumbleweed: given N answers in a RR set, Microsoft (and glibc for a time, but we got that fixed at least in Debian/Ubuntu) will return the "closest" one, which in IPv4 terms is meaningless17:17
tumbleweedah, that's fairly crazy17:17
elmowe only do  it for services that are likely to be used by non-Ubuntu users17:18
elmoso, e.g. archive.u.c does more traditional RR17:18
elmogoldenapple (the problematic server) is backup, FWIW17:19
njinnot working at all17:19
njinfrom this morning17:19
elmonjin: pardon?17:19
njincdimage is down17:19
elmonjin: as I said, it just came back up17:19
njinok17:20
njinis back17:22
phillwelmo: so the answer to the email list is "It is now working okay"?17:23
elmophillw: sure, if you like - it should be and is from my testing17:23
phillwelmo: thanks :)17:24
phillwelmo: is this okay to release?17:33
phillwHi guys and gals,17:33
phillwover the weekend the "behind the scenes" team were busy. You may have found that you could not upload / zsync etc.17:33
phillwMoving servers is not for the faint of heart, I still have the scars. 17:33
phillwThank you to all those who did the server transfer to enable ubuntu testing and dev team to be able to take up the higher work load on.17:33
phillwRegards,17:33
phillwPhill.17:33
* micahg invites phillw to use a pastebin next time17:49
phillwmicahg: it wasn't that much of paste :P17:50
micahgphillw: 6 lines belongs in a paste17:54
phillwmicahg: I consider myself told told off, I'll use paste in future. sorry :(17:56
micahgphillw: thanks :)17:56
phillwhi, any people around for http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/230/builds/21391/downloads22:59
phillwthe hhtp is pointing to a zsync.22:59
xnoxstgraber: see the message from phillw ^^^^23:00
phillwI've not checked others, I've just had a poke via email over it23:00
phillwDownload links for Ubuntu Alternate amd6423:01
phillw seems okay23:01
phillwxnox: hiyas, sorry to be once again the bringer of bad news. C'est la vie.23:04
phillwI'll be happy when -testing channel wakes up after the weekend :)23:05
