[07:34] Syria: the simplest way is to add that command to /etc/rc.local [07:36] SpamapS: This is the content of the file, http://paste.kde.org/625688,, please tell me how should I add the command please? [07:38] Syria: it would need to be before the 'exit 0' [07:39] Syria: also if that particular command does not return, you'll need to use something to make it return... an upstart job would do that.

I have a directory with perms 770 git:git and my gitlab user is not allowed to enter [15:09] it works when I make git the primary group of the gitlab user, but that is not what I need [15:09] id gives: uid=1002(gitlab) gid=1002(gitlab) groups=1002(gitlab),116(git) [15:18] Does anyone know if the /dev/ directory deletes or overwrites folders or files on reboot? [15:19] Linux101148: not necessarily overwrite, but things may be mounted on top of it [15:20] mauritslamers: Okay so this is what happen I had created a directory inside the /dev/ directory and on reboot it no longer exist [15:20] Linux101148: /dev entries are handled by udev [15:21] Is is possible to get that directory I created back through udev? [15:23] did you create a directory under /dev? [15:23] RoyK: Yeah I did unfortuately [15:24] well, /dev is normally devtmpfs [15:24] meaning it won't survive a reboot [15:24] RoyK: Yeah that seems to be the case...Is it all possible to get it back? [15:27] nope [15:27] it was in RAM [15:27] why did you put anything there? or what did you put there? [15:28] Thats Great :( [15:28] but why did you put data under /dev / [15:28] ? [15:29] RoyK: It seem to have the most usable space [15:29] well, now you've learned :) [15:30] Yeah exactly right so what really happen to it was it overwritten or removed entirely? [15:30] Linux101148: I'd say, use a data partition for your data, and use the root (/) for system things [15:30] Linux101148: it's a ram drive - meaning it's held in memory [15:30] not on disk [15:31] I got a micro VPS, only 3gb hdd. I just made one partition, starting to think that was a mistake. [15:31] So on reboot the memory is reset? [15:31] recon_lap: for such setups, I think it's wise to keep a single partition [15:32] Linux101148: yes [15:32] There isn't a log of this memory? [15:32] no [15:32] well, my biggest problem is that it's a static DNS setup and i cant get DNS working :( [15:32] well, that's not because it's a single partition ;) [15:33] probably something wrong in the dns setup, or in the zone file [15:33] hey all, I have a problem installing gitlab… I have two users, git (grp git) and gitlab (grp gitlab git). I have a directory with perms 770 git:git and my gitlab user is not allowed to enter this directory, anyone an idea? [15:35] only when the gitlab users has git as primary group it is allowed access.... [15:35] directory above is also fine (755) [15:35] mauritslamers_: dunno - perhaps try #git [15:35] RoyK: it doesn't have to do with git :) [15:36] it is a disk permissions issue [15:36] mauritslamers_: which ubuntu version? [15:36] 12.04 [15:37] wherever I create a directory with user1:user1 and user2 is member of the user1 group, it is not allowed access when the permissions are 770 [15:37] s/it/user2 [15:38] there is no acl, if selinux was on, I turned it off etc etc [15:38] mauritslamers_, verify the output of "groups" and ls -l the folder in question and all folders below it down to root [15:38] escott: did so [15:39] mauritslamers_: su - gitlab ; groups [15:39] uid=1002(gitlab) gid=1002(gitlab) groups=1002(gitlab),116(git) [15:39] (output of id) [15:39] gitlab@DevMT2:/home$ groups [15:39] gitlab git [15:40] mauritslamers_: are you sure the user has access to the parent directory? [15:40] yes [15:40] and it is granted access when the world executable bit is set, or the git group is being set to be the primary group of the gitlab user [15:40] well, I just did a quick test - useradd -m gittest ; groupadd git ; added gittest to group git, created a dir with ownership root:git and mode 770 - works for me... [15:41] RoyK: that is not the situation [15:41] when a user is created, you also get the personal group [15:41] mauritslamers_: oh - what did I misunderstand? [15:41] well, of course [15:42] created two users: git (having personal group git) and gitlab (having personal group gitlab) [15:42] I added the git group to the gitlab groups [15:42] and don't get access [15:42] if it helps: this is how the users are created: https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/stable/doc/install/installation.md [15:43] https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/stable/doc/install/installation.md#3-users [15:43] just tried to create git1 and git2, put git1 into git2's group, su - git1, cd ~git2, touch asdf [15:43] works for me - with 770 mode [15:44] you can't add a group to a group [15:45] * RoyK didn't [15:45] now the issue you might have is, group permissions aren't updated unless you logout and back in [15:45] patdk-lap: I know [15:45] killed all the processes of the user, then su - user [15:45] still not getting in [15:46] RoyK: how is the perm settings groupwise? git1:git1? [15:46] in the last test, yes, that was it [15:46] weird… it just doesn't work here [15:47] mauritslamers_, please just paste the output of ls -l [15:47] escott: drwxrwx--- 28 git git 4096 Dec 15 14:25 repositories [15:47] drwxrwxr-x 15 git git 4096 Dec 15 11:39 . [15:47] drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Dec 13 18:53 .. [15:48] . => /home/git [15:48] .. => /home [15:48] mauritslamers_, and "touch test" outputs what [15:48] touch test in where exactly? [15:48] in /home/git? [15:49] mauritslamers_, sure [15:49] permission denied [15:49] could it have to do with git having an id of 116 and gitlab of > 1000? [15:50] *uid [15:50] no [15:50] mauritslamers_: what are the permissions on the directory /home/git instead of the files [15:50] recon_lap: drwxrwxr-x 15 git git 4096 Dec 15 11:39 git [15:53] the member of the group git? and the output of whoami [15:53] members* [15:54] mauritslamers_, did you logout after running the usermod? [15:54] escott: as user gitlab yes [15:54] not as user root [15:55] mauritslamers_, you shouldnt be logging in as root. but thats another issue. [15:55] escott: I know :) [15:55] gitlab@DevMT2:~$ groups [15:55] gitlab git [15:55] mauritslamers_, "id" shows "git (116) [15:56] gitlab@DevMT2:~$ whoami [15:56] gitlab [15:56] escott: indeed: uid=1002(gitlab) gid=1002(gitlab) groups=1002(gitlab),116(git) [15:58] root@DevMT2:/home# grep ^git /etc/group [15:58] git:x:116:git,gitlab [15:58] gitlab:x:1002: [16:00] mauritslamers_, the only things i can think to check are things like "lsattr" or verifying that the mountpoint is not read-only or some such [16:00] how can I write persian in consoe mode [16:01] escott: root@DevMT2:/home# lsattr [16:01] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on ./gitlab [16:01] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on ./maurits [16:01] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on ./openqrm [16:01] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on ./bomt [16:01] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on ./git [16:01] (sorry for the list) [16:01] mauritslamers_, what filesystem is this? [16:02] escott: afaik ext4, but done by someone else as part of an Ubuntu Cloudcontroller [16:02] so it is the main disk of a virtual host, but without physical devices [16:02] had a lot of issues getting around kernel installations [16:03] so I am actually guessing this is a NFS mount [16:04] mauritslamers_, could be something with that [16:04] escott: true indeed [16:52] Does anyone have experience running ubuntu server using virtualbox? [16:54] I do [16:54] Akerok [16:54] I do run ubuntu server... why? [16:56] I need some help. I want to run an IRC server off of it. I'm not sure how to set that up. [16:58] akerok_, www.inspircd.org [16:58] you asking in wrong place [16:59] I do apologize. I was sent here form another channel. [17:00] akerok_: have you even look for an tutorials ? like http://www.the-tech-tutorial.com/?p=709 [17:03] No. I was hoping the community would be willing to help. It's faster that way. [17:05] akerok_: great attitude dude [17:06] What do you mean? [17:09] akerok_: sure it's quicker to get someone else to do it for you, easier too. good luck with that. [17:21] I asked because I want to learn, not have someone do it for me. I'm surprised that I'm being put down when I ask to be trained in somehting. [17:31] akerok_: you seem like a nice person, why not have a go at one of those links and if you get stuck then come back and ask about what you don't understand. [17:34] I thank you. I will. I do apologize for the way I seem right now. I'm really frustrated right now about some other things. [17:35] hey. I'd like to upgrade my OpenStack cloud from Essex to Folsom on 12.04 LTS, and found http://blog.canonical.com/2012/09/14/now-you-can-have-your-openstack-cake-and-eat-it/ that tells me the repositorie URLs, however, I am missing its public GPG key [17:36] anyone knows how to find out so I can add it? Because `apt-get update` refuses these repos to look at [17:38] akerok_: did not mean to discourage you. but people are more likely to help those who help themselves first. good luck getting the irc server installed. [17:38] recon_lap ? [17:38] ah, sorry ;) [17:41] I understand. I had an IRC server running on a Windows computer a few weeks ago, but I really wanted to run it on a server. I will look at the links, and ask questions if I get stuck. [17:48] akerok_: The Ubuntu Server Guide has a section about installing an IRC server. It is basic, but it a good place to start. [17:49] Thank you. [17:50] However... there are multiple IRC daemons out there in wide use. [19:51] any clue why i cant install the package - the dependency is met.... http://nopaste.info/bf9c13f3ce.html [19:51] nibbler: they are not met [19:51] that's why it's saying "dependency not met" [19:54] ikonia: i might be blind, but i says ": Depends: roundcube-core (>= 0.5.1)" and also "0.7.1-2" is in State: installed (roundcube-core) [19:55] yes, look at the version difference [19:55] nibbler: it looks like you are installing a package from an older release. [19:55] last time i checked 0.7.1- was >= 0.5.1 [19:55] or you've pulled in roundcube-core from a much later release. [19:55] well, i'm using my hosters ubuntu 12.4 repository. but the numbers look fine to me anyway :/ [19:56] nibbler: what version of ubuntu are you currently running [19:56] ikonia: server 12.4 lts [19:56] !info roundcube-core precise [19:56] roundcube-core (source: roundcube): skinnable AJAX based webmail solution for IMAP servers.
