[01:44] <m_tadeu> hi...I'm using tomcat and I'm trying to change the amount of memory used by an application....which I'm failing to do
[01:44] <m_tadeu> where should I set that?
[03:25] <mortrca> I would really like to see an answer to the question posed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2032129
[03:36] <sarnold> (for the curious, mortrca's answer is that "apt-get install foo^" looks to install the "foo" task. neat. never seen that before, it's only been around since 2007...)
[03:45] <patdk-lap> sarnold, the problem is probably that it was documented in the manual
[03:47] <sarnold> patdk-lap: w/was/wasn't/  :) at least, searching for "\^" does not find it; nor does "task". heh.
[03:47] <sarnold> patdk-lap: if it wasn't documented in the changelog, it'd be even harder to find...
[03:48] <sarnold> (grepping for ^ in the apt source is .. surprisingly worse than one might suspect. :)
[03:48] <patdk-lap> :)
[03:50] <patdk-lap> it's documented under tasksel
[03:50] <patdk-lap> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel
[03:52] <sarnold> haha, best part, it documents that it isn't documented anywhere.
[03:53] <patdk-lap> :)
[03:53] <patdk-lap> fun, I just upgraded postfix yesterday, and a new version comes out today
[03:54] <sarnold> haha, figures... hope it's nothing too important for you :)
[03:54] <patdk-lap> actually, no, that was dovecot
[03:54] <patdk-lap> hmm, mem leak, and a null reference
[03:54] <patdk-lap> not a huge deal, but
[03:55] <sarnold> null reference in postfix? o_O I'm surprised.. it's always seemed like really awesome code. :)
[03:55] <patdk-lap> The local(8) delivery agent dereferenced a null pointer while
[03:55] <patdk-lap>     delivering to null command (for example, "|" in a .forward
[03:55] <patdk-lap>     file)
[04:01] <patdk-lap> well, that was one easy patch to apply
[04:01] <patdk-lap> what I like to see :)
[04:01] <patdk-lap> new version posted to my ppa <3hours after release

[05:49] <SpinningWheels> anyone have any idea why an mdadm array would randomly go from /dev/md0 to a read-only on /dev/127? i cant find any errors in any logs that i've found. any ideas?
[08:49] <cantah> Howdey, just looking for information regarding setting up a distributed (cluster) environment for email. Need some help in that direction
[09:32] <Daviey> interesting... debian bug 699791
[09:33] <Daviey> more interesting than say, debian bug 699790 :)
[10:04] <maswan> lamont: Hey, do you have a guesstimate on the chances of the RRL patches making it into precise bind?
[10:21] <Pupeno_w> I need to backup a lot of files to S3… around 400k of them. I was using s3cmd sync so far, but it takes ages and it consumes too much memory. I think it's building a list, in memory, of all files, or something like that. Is there any other option for such a big amount of files?
[10:23] <andol> Pupeno_w: Do some basic shell scripting, passing one file at the time to s3cmd?
[10:24] <andol> Not that running ls on a 400k files folder is much fun, assuming all files are in the same folder?
[10:24] <Pupeno_w> andol: if I decide to take that route, I'll probably write it in ruby and use as S3 library. But I'm trying to find a better alternative for now.
[10:25] <Pupeno_w> andol: hehehe… they are not in the same folder. They are spread through many folders carefully so no folder has a huge amount of files.
[10:42] <phoenixsampras> how to install ubuntu from the network/.

[10:46] <vezq> no experience with citrix
[10:47] <vezq> but could try some ubuntu download mirror
[10:47] <phoenixsampras> what is a common url for a mirror? ramdisk... etc

[11:28] <Pupeno_w> What's the name of that program that easily creates a package from source code (configure, make, make install)?
[11:34] <rbasak> Pupeno_w: are you looking for dh_make?
[11:34]  * rbasak doesn't use it though
[11:35] <Pupeno_w> rbasak: why?
[11:35] <Pupeno_w> nevermind
[11:36] <Daviey> Pupeno_w: you are thinking of checkinstall.. but it's less than nice.. but still better thank just make install.
[11:36] <Daviey> rbasak: ^
[11:37] <rbasak> Ah, that rings a bell
[11:37] <Daviey> talking of nasty tools, when was the last time someone here used alien to convert rpm to deb?
[11:37]  * rbasak doesn't use that either :)
[11:37] <Daviey> rbasak: good :)
[12:12] <jamespage> zul: bug 981269, I think I'll ask the reporter to get it committed to stable/essex and then we can pickup in the next SRU
[12:15] <zul> jamespage: or we could do it on his behalf :)
[12:21] <jamespage> zul: it looks a suitable candidate to the stable/essex branch to me
[12:21] <jamespage> zul: however the upstream gerrit review is abandoned
[12:22] <jamespage> zul: and the backport does not include the tests...
[12:31] <zul> jamespage:  yeah buts its horizon
[12:31] <zul> jamespage: im not too thrilled it adds an extra dependecy as well

[13:34] <zul> jamespage: the horizon thingy?
[13:34] <jamespage> zul: yah
[13:35] <zul> jamespage: ill do it
[13:35] <jamespage> zul: is that likely to make it upstream or should we just accept the patch into Ubuntu?
[13:35] <zul> jamespage: yeah i didnt know why it sat idle
[13:36] <zul> jamespage: i just woke up so.... :)
[13:37] <jamespage> zul: lol - well it looks OK; the actual fix is inline with that in Folsom even if it does not include the test cases
[13:37] <zul> jamespage:  yeah looks ok
[13:38] <zul> jamespage: the essex packaging for horizon will need to be updated
[13:46] <jamespage> zul: guh
[13:46] <jamespage> yolanda: whats the status on the essex sru's that are in the -proposed branched in the lab?
[13:46] <yolanda> jamespage, don't know about it, i raised the bugs but haven't received any notice
[13:48] <jamespage> yolanda: do you have the bug reference?
[13:48] <yolanda> let me check
[13:49] <jamespage> ta
[13:54] <yolanda> mm, i've found an old one that i did, but i marked that as invalid because i joined all in a single bug, still searching
[13:57] <yolanda> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/keystone/+bug/1089488
[13:57] <yolanda> that's it
[13:57] <yolanda> no progress since i filed it
[14:04] <jamespage> yolanda: hmm - that is somewhat unsatisfactory - I wonder what the hold-up is
[14:04] <jamespage> the updates where uploaded in December...
[14:04] <yolanda> i know
[14:05] <yolanda> can i do something to speed it?
[14:10] <jamespage> yolanda: poke the SRU team; I'd do it via the tracking bug first and then on irc a day or so later...
[14:11] <yolanda> i add a comment on the bug?
[14:14] <jamespage> yolanda: yes
[14:14] <rbasak> The 12.04.2 freeze is holding up all SRUs right now, isn't it?
[14:15] <jamespage> rbasak: hmm - probably - but this has been in queue since last year
[14:15] <jamespage> rbasak: TBH we don't ship these packages so its irrelevant for the ISO's; but it would be nice to push these out.
[15:03] <Castrol> hi

[15:04] <Castrol> I see an UDP listening port at: 0.0.0.0/67
[15:04] <Castrol> But, how can I perform some kind of PING to test the connection?
[15:06] <zul> yolanda: can you have a look at the python-pecan stuff? you can find it ay http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=openstack/python-pecan.git
[15:06] <zul> Castrol:  by pinging an address?
[15:07] <yolanda> zul, is there any problem?
[15:07] <zul> yolanda:  just licencse issues
[15:07] <yolanda> ok
[15:07] <Castrol> Castrol: I expect some kind of command like: udp_ping IP_ADDR 67
[15:09] <yolanda> zul, is there any bug related to that?
[15:09] <zul> nope

[16:04] <hallyn> ahs3`: debian import freeze coming up;  can you push netcf to experimental this week so i can request a sync? :)
[16:15] <hallyn> stgraber: there's a blueprint WI for lxc to add RLIMIT_NPROC for userns.  My feeling is that is not particularly useful given other things that can be exploited - and default placement of system users into memory cgroups is better approach.  Disagree?
[16:16] <stgraber> hallyn: well, finding ways to avoid fork bombs is still relevant, memory cgroup helps there but you have to put a very strict quota to avoid running out of PIDs
[16:16] <stgraber> hallyn: ultimately where it's implemented doesn't matter a lot but I think we want some way to prevent a given container to use all of the hosts' PIDs
[16:17] <hallyn> i'll have to check, but seem to recall that by default it has far fewer pids anyway
[16:17] <hallyn> i could be wrong about that
[16:18] <tangomike>  /j #centos
[16:18] <hallyn> traitor
[16:19] <hallyn> all right - i guess rlimit_nproc for the host uid really is a convenient place for it.
[16:26] <jamespage> zul: reviewed
[16:26] <jamespage> and approved

[16:45] <decci> Hi Guys
[16:46] <decci> I have Ubuntu 12.04.1 which I want to install directly on compellent SAN. I am using Intel I350 card but its not detecting the SAN at install time
[16:47] <decci> Just to get some more clarity, I installed Ubuntu 12.04.1 on local disk and then tried installing open-iscsi and see if it sees compellent SAN. I got this:http://paste.ubuntu.com/1613270/
[16:48] <decci> May I know if the output shows if it detects compellent SAN

[18:24] <sweettea> im new to ubuntu server, what is the equivalent of chkconfig ?
[18:24] <sweettea> The program 'sysv-rc-conf' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[18:24] <sweettea> is it not that?
[18:25] <sarnold> sweettea: the upstart init replacement changed a few things (imho, mostly for the better)...
[18:26] <sarnold> sweettea: to list all jobs, initctl list  -- http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#list-all-jobs
[18:26] <sweettea> sarnold: thank you
[18:26] <sarnold> sweettea: that's often enough, because upstart assumes if a service is installed, that you want it to run
[18:26] <sarnold> sweettea: but you can disable services easily using an .override file: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#override-files
[18:29] <maxb> Alternatively, not everything is converted to upstart, and for classic /etc/init.d/ type stuff, it's generally a good idea to have a look in /etc/default/<service>
[18:34] <sweettea> I just need to see whats running by default, so to disable it
[18:34] <sweettea> for example on rhel theres always the stupid NetworkManager
[18:35] <sweettea> im using a 12.10 box as a virt container, so I need to update security, disable everything not required, and edit iptables
[18:38] <sarnold> sweettea: if you don't want something running, maybe uninstall it :)
[18:40] <sweettea> understood
[18:40] <sweettea> but i just dont know whats what yet, learning :)

[21:20] <supNow> Hello all I have a quick question I'm sure someone in here could answer very easily...
[21:22] <supNow> I setup lamp on ubuntu-server and installed phpmyadmin. I then switched the apache directory to one in the home directory. I was able to install a site using the db information I setup with phpmyadmin which was done before changing directories and the site that was setup after changing directories installed with no issues... however I can only pullup the login page for phpmyadmin now, when I try to login I get a NOT FOU
[21:22] <supNow> ND?
[21:22] <RoyK> !asm | supNow
[21:23] <supNow> the index.php file it is referencing is still in the phpmyadmin folder so I'm not sure why it's not finding it
[21:24] <RoyK> wonder perhaps if this quiestion is better answered in #phpmyadmin
[21:34] <resno> RoyK: when you do email what do you do/use?
[21:38] <adam_g> jamespage: Daviey zul just proposed the 2012.2.3 folsom changelogs into the lp:~openstack-ubuntu-testing/$foo/folsom branches. adjusted our scripts to only add a proper bug ref if there is an ubuntu task open. still using the metabug. let me know what you think
[21:39] <Daviey> adam_g: keystone empty ?
[21:40] <Daviey> adam_g: erm, i thought we were doing "LP: #Already-ubuntu-bugtask" and "LP: No-ubuntu-bug-task"
[21:41] <Daviey> ie, lack of a #.. meaning it doesn't get cuaght by regex.
[21:41] <RoyK> resno: ?
[21:44] <adam_g> Daviey: i opted for (LP: #Already-ubuntu-bugtask) + LP: No-ubuntu-bug-task, since (LP: #XXXXXX) is what i've alwasy used.
[21:45] <adam_g> er
[21:45] <adam_g> Daviey: (LP: #Already-ubuntu-bugtask) + LP: #No-ubuntu-bug-task.  does the latter get picked up the same as (LP: #XXXX) ?
[21:46] <adam_g> i can quickly regen if so
[21:46] <Daviey> LP: #x == (LP: #x)
[21:47] <adam_g> ah, ill drop the # then
[21:47] <Daviey> adam_g: you need to drop the #
[21:48] <minorix> Does IPsec with ESP in Tunnel Mode contain a layer 2 header at all or just layer 3?
[21:50] <sarnold> minorix: I'd expect just layer3; once it leaves one ethernet and travels to another network, it might be on a completely different layer 2..
[21:51] <minorix> Ok, so the "packet" that is encapsulated by ESP would not have layer 2 information then
[21:51] <minorix> I am trying to figure out how proxy ARP works in this sense
[21:51] <sarnold> minorix: unless you're encapsulating l2, of course, something like l2tp?
[21:52] <minorix> I have just a IPsec VPN
[21:52] <minorix> For my VPN, I had a VPN client on the same subnet as internal hosts and without proxy arp enabled on the VPN router, the two could not talk
[21:52] <minorix> So in this case, the router was responding to ARP requests for the VPN client
[21:53] <Daviey> adam_g: Oh, dang.. a keystone sec vuln is landing shortly
[21:55] <adam_g> Daviey: np. easy enough to rebase once it lands (happened last time). just wanted to get the tooling aligned to the new format/process in the meantime
[21:57] <Daviey> adam_g: yeah, rocking!  thanks :)
