[00:33] <phretor> I'm using `logger -n 192.168.42.229 -P 55514 "TEST"` to send a test message to a remote logger; however, I see the message to /var/log/messages - indeed, tcpdump on each host shows nothing. I'm using rsyslog. Any hint on how could I debug this?
[00:34] <phretor> I tried to telnet to that host port 55514 and I can send stuff there
[00:38] <sarnold> phretor_: do you need -d to use udp instead?
[00:38] <sarnold> phretor_: does netstat -lnp | grep rsyslog on the destination show it listening on all interfaces or the public interface?
[02:11] <zul> adam_g:  alot of the other openstack packages already depend on oslo-config
[02:15] <adam_g> zul, right but the library changed its name from oslo-config to oslo.config
[02:16] <zul> adam_g: right i uploaded that this morning so its making its way through
[02:17] <zul> adam_g: anwyays im out of here
[02:17] <adam_g> zul: ok, pydist-overrides will need updating elsewhere. quantum is broken on the same thing but needed to get keystoneclient updated (its a BD)

[03:24] <nibalizer> I'm trying to make contributions ot the server guide, and getting no response in ubuntu-doc
[03:24] <nibalizer> anyone involved in that project in here?
[03:53] <thekev> I filed a launchpad security bug for a possible problem with official amazon AMIs.  I feel like that's the wrong group to look at it though.  Think there's a better place to report?
[03:53] <thekev> (where official is canonical's supported image)
[03:53] <histo> official supported image of what?
[03:54] <thekev> ubuntu server 12.04
[03:55] <histo> ubuntu.com
[03:56] <histo> thekev: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server
[03:56] <thekev> uh, ok... ubuntu.com.  there's a lot of content there. :)  I found my way to launchpad bug tracker by way of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[03:56] <thekev> uh, I'm not looking for how to get it.
[03:57] <thekev> some critical files fail debsums and there's a smell of evil
[03:57] <thekev> in the AMIs prepared by canonical
[03:59] <histo> thekev: you can appport-bug packagename
[03:59] <histo> on a running system it will walk you through the process
[03:59] <thekev> it's not a package bug
[04:00] <thekev> and I'm not a noob
[04:02] <histo> I didn't say you were a noob. I'm just not understanding your questions then.
[04:02] <thekev> bad choice of words on my part.  stressful day.
[04:03] <thekev> I'm trying to be a bit vague because if it's what it could be, there's a big, big problem.
[04:03] <ivoks> adam_g: are you around maybe?
[04:05] <thekev> canonical provides AMIs for Amazon AWS, officially built by them, and supported.  Debsums validates what the package says on disk is actually still the same.  There are some things which are not.  The contents of the package are correct, but the image canonical built is not.
[04:06] <histo> thekev: Have you tried contacting canonical?
[04:06] <ivoks> thekev: what files are failing debsum?
[04:06] <thekev> that is my question for the group.  how to contact proper group, or if a security bug on launchpad seems correct
[04:06] <thekev> ivoks, I can share details in private.  PM ok?
[04:07] <ivoks> security bug is a way, you can make bug private and then it will be seen by security members
[04:07] <thekev> it is that way
[04:07] <thekev> marked private security
[04:07] <ivoks> ok
[04:07] <ivoks> then it will be seen by security group only
[04:08] <histo> thekev: now you are making sense.
[04:09] <histo> thekev: yes you did i the proper way. The only other option is to actually call canonical http://www.canonical.com/about-canonical/contact/our-offices
[04:09] <thekev> ok
[04:10] <ivoks> mdeslaur: jdstrand ping
[04:56] <utlemming> thekey: can you grant me access to the bug. I spin those images.
[04:56] <med_> thekev ^
[04:56] <med_> (not thekey)
[04:58] <thekev> ok
[04:59] <thekev> done
[05:00] <thekev> I'm going to attach the offending binaries for analysis
[05:09] <thekev> thanks for the prompt attention.  hopefully this turns out to be benign.
[05:16] <ivoks> thekev: and it is...
[05:36] <utlemming> thekey: I'm taking ownership of the bug and will solve it tomorrow
[05:36] <utlemming> thekey: this is a live-build artifact, which is demonstrated in the code
[05:36] <utlemming> thekey: and we have confirmed the sums match previous versions of the upstart package
[05:37] <med_> thekev,
[05:37] <med_> not thekey
[05:37] <med_> ^
[05:37] <utlemming> thekev: so its annoying, but not a serious issue. When this is solved, new cloud images for everyone. :)
[05:37] <utlemming> thekev: ^^^
[05:37] <med_> good find.
[05:38] <utlemming> +1. This bug has existed since Oneiric.
[05:38]  * utlemming goes to bed
[05:40] <arrrghhh> hey all.  if I start swapping, will the system remove that allocation or do I need to reboot/restart the process that started swapping?
[05:40] <arrrghhh> I'm trying to figure out why I'm swapping too, system says I have a lot of free RAM.
[05:41] <ivoks> swappines can be controled
[05:41] <ivoks> but swapping by itself doesn't mean something bad is happening
[05:41] <ivoks> and it's a broad subject :)
[05:42] <ivoks> everyone has has their own oppinion on swapping :)
[05:43] <ivoks> opionon too
[05:49] <thekev> nobody but me runs debsums? :)
[05:49] <thekev> thanks.
[05:49] <thekev> odd it's exactly the same size, but that makes sense.  some old cruft from a bootstrap back in time.
[05:53] <arrrghhh> ivoks, well I seem to have plenty of RAM
[05:53] <arrrghhh> says 6gb free
[05:53] <arrrghhh> but obviously with caching that's not exactly accurate
[05:54] <arrrghhh> with caching I have 700mb free lol
[05:55] <ivoks> linux is pretty smart when it comes to memory usage
[05:55] <ivoks> do you have memory to look at it or to use it?
[05:56] <arrrghhh> ehm
[05:56] <ivoks> if your apps need 1GB of memory, why not use rest of it for filesystem cache
[05:56] <arrrghhh> obviously I don't mind Linux using 5gb of RAM for cache
[05:56] <arrrghhh> it knows what it is doing
[05:56] <arrrghhh> but I'm just wondering why I also see almost a gig of swap usage
[05:56] <arrrghhh> as I know when it starts swapping (hard), things do not work so well
[05:57] <arrrghhh> it's not doing that now... but seeing that it used almost a gig of swap makes me wonder
[05:57] <ivoks> eh
[05:57] <ivoks> so... swappines is a 'swap factor'
[05:57] <ivoks> it tells the system how to use swap
[05:58] <arrrghhh> yea, I do remember this value
[05:58] <ivoks> while you have free memory, system will never get into 'swap death' state
[05:58] <arrrghhh> I haven't mucked with it yet ^^
[05:58] <ivoks> swappines in ubuntu is 60, iirc
[05:58] <arrrghhh> yea sounds right
[05:58] <ivoks> if you set it to 0, swap will be empty until it's really needed
[05:58] <arrrghhh> hm
[05:59] <ivoks> system uses swap for data that hasn't been used, but might be used
[05:59] <thekev> default good for desktop, I tend to set my server boxen (that have swap) to 10
[05:59] <ivoks> when it calculates that it's better to store some memory data to disk and rather put filesystem cache into the memory
[05:59] <arrrghhh> I noticed I have 12gb of swap on this box haha
[05:59] <thekev> Found it fixed issues back in my former life with a memory-piggy cluster application we wrote
[06:00] <arrrghhh> I think an old hard drive needs to get pulld from this rig tho
[06:00] <thekev> but if my application is leaky, I prefer no swap.  just oom-kill it. :)
[06:00] <arrrghhh> anytime I see swap being used, makes me think that I don't have enough RAM haha
[06:01] <ivoks> that would be the case if swappines is set to 0
[06:01] <arrrghhh> oook, but the default 60 it will use some swap even if it doesn't absolutely need to
[06:01] <ivoks> right
[06:02] <ivoks> it will use swap when it decides that performance-wise, some disk data is better to be kept in memory, while some memory data is better to be kept on disk
[06:02] <arrrghhh> I was thinking about putting more RAM in this rig, but I don't think it really needs it
[06:03] <ivoks> i think tmpfs uses swap, but i haven't checked
[06:05] <histo> ivoks: tmpfs doesn't use swap
[06:05] <histo> it uses ram
[06:05] <ivoks> right, it uses ram
[06:06] <ivoks> but considering that some stuff never changes (there are files in the end), it might end up in swap
[06:06] <arrrghhh> ok, just set it to 10
[06:06] <arrrghhh> vm.swappiness that is
[06:44] <thekev> well, unless you do some crazysauce (guilty) like making 128GB swap and 128GB of tmpfs on a 32GB machine
[06:44] <thekev> my use case made this actually good, but I don't recall if I changed swappiness
[06:45] <arrrghhh> heh
[06:45] <arrrghhh> I was thinking about getting more RAM to put some crap in a ramdisk
[06:45] <thekev> we'd do some i/o intenstive stuff, then leave it in the tmpfs while the session was open - in 99% of the cases, we didn't need to swap it back in
[06:46] <thekev> ramdisk good if you're being held back by io-wait, otherwise... meh, get an ssd :)
[06:47] <arrrghhh> hah.  just got one for the lappy
[06:47] <ivoks> 10 years ago, when i was running a mosix cluster, i used swap for storing processes that were stopped during the day
[06:47] <thekev> my crazy was in like.. 2009, so ssd wasn't really feasible then
[06:47] <ivoks> then i had more swap space than memory on the main node
[06:49] <thekev> and then you installed RAM Doubler?
[06:49] <ivoks> nope
[06:49] <ivoks> it was a 60 node cluster
[06:49] <thekev> trollin some old school, that's all
[06:50] <ivoks> it was a cluster only over night, during the day those were 60 workstations
[06:50] <thekev> ah, clever
[06:50] <arrrghhh> trollin for sure, RAM doubler lol
[06:50] <ivoks> so all processes running on those machines were brought back to main node, which was up all the time
[06:50] <ivoks> first the process was stopped and then pulled in, stored in swap
[06:51] <thekev> the kind of thing page-in and page-out was meant for
[06:52] <thekev> "by day, a non-descript accounting firm. by night, a code br^W^@weather modeling machine"
[06:52] <thekev> er s/^@/^W/
[06:54] <arrrghhh> well, restarted some processes.  down to 97mb in swap...
[06:54] <thekev> one thing I learned the hard way... bytes in swap means nothing
[06:55] <thekev> cat /proc/meminfo - SwapCached (IIRC) are pages that have been brought back into main memory but not yet freed from swap.  in case they need to be paged out again, it avoids actual copying
[06:58] <arrrghhh> ah well.  I should get to bed - thanks for the help guys, take it easy!
[06:59]  * thekev goes back to crashing simcity 5
[08:42] <jamespage> xnox, around yet?
[09:54] <Laney> hello
[09:54] <Laney> is there some VCS for the openstack related packages or can I just upload them (oslo-config)
[09:54] <Laney> ?
[10:17] <Laney> well, I did it
[10:27] <xnox> jamespage: I didn't notice embedded js engine =)
[10:28] <jamespage> xnox, lots of embedded stuff in mongodb - well less now (I fixed some of that last upload)
[10:28] <jamespage> xnox, I have sad broken arm tho
[10:28] <xnox> jamespage: to sidetrack 7h of build time, the compiled tests maybe should be shipped in a deb, such that we can run them afterwards?!
[10:29] <jamespage> xnox, the tests are written in python so are easy to run
[10:29] <jamespage> and can be run from the source branch
[10:29] <jamespage> xnox, to execute the full test suite as part of the build (as we do on x86) I estimate 7 hours
[10:30] <jamespage> xnox, it takes about 5 just to build the code
[10:31] <xnox> =/ sad. Last time i was trying it, the armhf testsuite was segfaulting rather quckly with unalligned memory access.
[10:31] <xnox> seems like the patch we had, bitrotted and is now incomplete.
[10:32] <xnox> i should tinker with mongodb on a n7. adding a todo for myself.
[10:36] <jamespage> xnox, afaict the arm fixes for 2.0.x made it upstream
[10:36] <jamespage> xnox, however I needed a whole new set for 2.2.x
[10:37] <jamespage> xnox, as some bits of the codebase where strewn with x86 asm calls
[10:37] <jamespage> xnox, I picked an initial patch from the fedora-arm ML and then added use of gcc __sync primitives myself (if avaliable)
[10:38] <jamespage> xnox, but right now; mongod fails to startup correcty (spins in some of the __sync code)
[10:38] <jamespage> and the client throws a SIGBUS
[10:46]  * xnox is sad.
[10:49] <jamespage> zul, when you start we need an update to pyparsing as well (but I suspect you already know that right :-))
[10:49] <jamespage> zul, and Laney fixed oslo-config for you as well :-)
[10:55] <Daviey> zul: can you land Laney's upload into bzr
[12:03] <xnox> jamespage: i wish linaro maintains mongodb =)
[12:03] <xnox> (well the armhf / arm64 builds of it)
[12:11] <koolhead17> jamespage: smoser https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=910619

[13:15] <dragoonis> I just done apt-get remove mysql-server. and then apt-get install mysql-server

[13:17] <dragoonis> all good i overwrote it anyway
[13:21] <nordm> I have setup OpenStack with the folsom basic install guide, but Im having problems with connecting to the VMs from external networks. I have traced the ping and it drops the reply from the VM on the br-tun bridge on the network node.
[13:21] <nordm> due to an drop rule
[13:21] <nordm> Anyone have any ideas?
[13:22] <nordm> To add, Im running 12.10
[13:35] <soren> nordm: Did you add a security group rule to allow ping?
[14:03] <nordm> soren: yes
[14:05] <nordm> the ping req is reaching the vm, ping reply exits the compute node, enters the physical interface of the network node, and drops at the br-tun
[14:05] <nordm> questions is how should the flows look at the br-tun bridge?
[14:08] <dragoonis> Guys this is driving me nuts, every time i try to start mysql it starts but when I try to connect to it I get

[14:21] <PeterGriffin> Hi all. I have ubuntu server 12.04 on RAID 1, but it can't find GRUB and keeps asking me for a system disk. I installed GRUb form live dvd few times but it doesn't work. HELP
[14:33] <blazindrop> dragoonis, is mysql running and listening on that socket?
[14:34] <blazindrop> dragoonis, what is the output of "ps auxw|grep mysql"
[14:35] <dragoonis> blazindrop: i had a few in memory but i killed them. I've tried a re-install of mysql-server package, but i'm now missing the "my.cnf" file and the ".sock" file
[14:35] <dragoonis> blazindrop: can you help me get these back so I can get back to where I was earlier when i posted my mg
[14:36] <blazindrop> dragoonis, what version of ubuntu
[14:36] <dragoonis> blazindrop: i'm going to install from the source, from mysql's website
[14:36] <dragoonis> blazindrop: Description:	Ubuntu 10.10
[14:38] <blazindrop> dragoonis, I won't be able to help with a source build :( must you use ubuntu 10.10 vs. say 12.04 LTS?
[14:39] <dragoonis> blazindrop: okay let me get it up and running first, downloading the src
[15:14] <acalvo> Hello. I'm trying to set up an unattended installation, but after loading the preseed file (either by URL or by kernel parameter) it just boot and show the installation dialog. Anyone has worked with that in the past and has an example/tutorial? Thanks
[15:20] <dragoonis> blazindrop: hey you here?
[15:20] <dragoonis> apt-get install mysql-server does pretty much nothing now :S, it doesn't install a my.cnf file or the .sock file, and I can' run 'service mysql start'
[15:38] <james2013> hello
[15:41] <james2013> i'm interested in learning more about web servers in general. I have setup a VM to use for testing stuff out. I followed a howtoforge guide on how to setup the server. But when I try to send emails both from in thunderbird or webmail the fail and don't display any real error msgs
[15:41] <james2013> where would be the logs so I can see what is going on ?
[15:41] <arrrghhh> what do you use for an mta?
[15:42] <arrrghhh> or whatever it's called.  the email server lol
[15:42] <james2013> are you asking if I use smtp, pop3, or imap ?
[15:43] <james2013> like I said i'm new to this
[15:43] <arrrghhh> no
[15:43] <arrrghhh> the server
[15:43] <arrrghhh> I'm not an email guy sorry
[15:43] <arrrghhh> uhm, I can't think of the name of an mta jeebus
[15:43] <arrrghhh> link me the guide
[15:44] <james2013> http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-12.04-lts-apache2-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3
[15:44] <james2013> i think it was dovecot
[15:44] <arrrghhh> yea dovecot
[15:44] <arrrghhh> did you configure it?
[15:44] <arrrghhh> there should be logs for it too
[15:45] <james2013> configured as the guide had examples then had to find another guide for the ispconfig setup
[15:45] <arrrghhh> well you have to configure it for your site
[15:46] <dragoonis> $ start mysql
[15:46] <dragoonis> start: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.27" (uid=1000 pid=16330 comm="start) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Start" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init"))
[15:46] <james2013> i'm just not sure where the logs are at since total new. Yeah I did that in ispconfig you have to setup the main site, then the mail server details, then setup accounts
[15:46] <dragoonis> can someone tell me why mysql isn't starting ?
[15:46] <Daviey> mdeslaur: wow, busy update to django!
[15:46] <mdeslaur> Daviey: yes :)
[15:49] <arrrghhh> dragoonis, why aren't you using sudo service mysqld start?
[15:49] <dragoonis> i am
[15:49] <dragoonis> it just hangs
[15:50] <dragoonis> can you help me figure out why ?
[15:50] <arrrghhh> hm
[15:50] <arrrghhh> I was just wondering why you were starting it like that
[15:50] <arrrghhh> I would guess you need to strace it
[15:50] <arrrghhh> as far as solving it, sorry that is a bit beyond my ability/time right now
[15:51] <dragoonis> ok
[15:54] <dragoonis> how does one pass options to the 'service mysql start' job ?
[15:54] <dragoonis> I want to specify the location of the config file.
[15:54] <dragoonis> It's not picking up /etc/my.cnf or /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[15:54] <acalvo> dragoonis, even touch the init script or look in the default config file
[15:54] <acalvo> has anyone used preseeding before?
[15:57] <dragoonis> acalvo: it's getting locked into an infinite startup loop, this is what "service mysql start" produces while it's busy executing: https://gist.github.com/dragoonis/f3ec4308a9facde132ee
[15:58] <dragoonis> this is the syslog output ^
[16:00] <acalvo> your goal is to have a separate config file?
[16:00] <dragoonis> acalvo: my goal is just to have it boot, normally
[16:01] <acalvo> if you made any change, try reverting them
[16:01] <dragoonis> then i ran 'mysql' it would say couldn't connect to the sock path defined in /etc/mysql/debian.cnf, but I have a different pat in /etc/mysql/my.cnf that it's not even looking at
[16:01] <acalvo> perform a purge of the package and reinstall again
[16:01] <dragoonis> acalvo: done, and this is where we are.
[16:04] <dragoonis> acalvo: I can try again if you're up for helping me :-)
[16:05] <acalvo> I'm installing mysql myself
[16:05] <acalvo> are you on LTS?
[16:06] <dragoonis> acalvo: i don't think so, I'm on Ubuntu 10.10
[16:06] <acalvo> well, that's old
[16:07] <dragoonis> acalvo: i know, but ain't got the time to upgrade and reinstall  things
[16:07] <acalvo> however, try to purge the package and remove any file it could have left
[16:07] <dragoonis> acalvo: apt-get --purge remove mysql-server ?
[16:08] <acalvo> yes
[16:08] <acalvo> and apt-get --purge autoremove
[16:08] <dragoonis> acalvo: done
[16:08] <acalvo> did it removed anything else?
[16:09] <acalvo> is the directory /etc/mysql done?
[16:09] <dragoonis> acalvo: it's not took this long before to do the autoremove, lets wait :)
[16:09] <acalvo> sorry, meant gone
[16:09] <dragoonis> Removing libhtml-template-perl ...
[16:09] <dragoonis> Removing mysql-server-5.1 ...
[16:09] <dragoonis> hasn't done that before, perhaps it wasn't uninstalling properly before.. i'll let you know when autoremove is completed.
[16:09] <acalvo> take into account that it will remove anything related to mysql
[16:09] <acalvo> ok
[16:09] <dragoonis> acalvo: thanks

[16:29] <acalvo> dragoonis, how did it go?
[16:29] <dragoonis> acalvo: i'm back
[16:41] <dragoonis> acalvo: it's done.
[16:41] <dragoonis> apt-get install mysql-server again ?
[16:43] <acalvo> yes
[16:44] <dragoonis> it's in progress
[16:44] <acalvo> let's see
[16:44] <dragoonis> looks like i didn't do --purge autoremove last time
[16:44] <adam_g> zul, http://people.canonical.com/~agandelman/folsom/python-django_1.4.1-2ubuntu0.3~cloud0/
[16:44] <dragoonis> so it wasn't actualy removing anything
[16:44] <zul> adam_g: +1
[16:48] <acalvo> dragoonis, that means it's working?
[16:48] <dragoonis> acalvo: it's at this right now "Setting up mysql-server-5.1 (5.1.61-0ubuntu0.10.10.1) ..."
[16:51] <hdd1> Hello, im currentrly using ubuntu-server 12.04 with kernel 3.5.0-generic into a msi 970g46 with a amd 8150 proc and 16Gb ram with a kvm. I installed the gnome-core so i can have gnome-classic (failsafe). It works fine. but if i enable the autologin option, x does not start. Also if i push x with startx, i et an error: xkbcomp report: warning type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 leves, but RALT hast 2 symbols ignoring extra symbol, errors from
[16:52] <hdd1> any help to fix no x with autologin?

[16:55] <dosaboy> Daviey: ping
[16:55] <Daviey> dosaboy: hey, i see there are two nova proposed updates to precise?
[16:55] <dosaboy> SRU? lemme get that page up
[16:55] <Daviey> yeah
[16:56] <Daviey> dosaboy: who sponsored them?
[16:56] <Daviey> they've been sat in the queue for a while.. was about to take a look at it.
[16:57] <dosaboy> so I'm not sure why there are 2, they look like duplicates
[16:57] <Daviey> yeah, look sthere there was a typo on one of the changelogs
[16:57] <Daviey> adam_g / zul: How does this fit into your next openstack hunk sru?
[16:58] <dosaboy> they stem from an SRU that I had to redo a while back. zul and jstrandb reviewed them
[16:58] <Daviey> dosaboy: can you tell me who sponsored it?  It's easier if you can tell me than checking the sig :)
[17:00] <dosaboy> Daviey: if you mean who accepted the merge it zul
[17:00] <dosaboy> https://code.launchpad.net/~hopem/nova/precise-updates-sru-lp1119248/+merge/148663
[17:00]  * dosaboy is new to this process
[17:01] <Daviey> dosaboy: Yeah, we are trying to improve it all.. And you contribution is appreciated, just a pain it's been blocked so long
[17:01] <adam_g> dosaboy, Daviey the two older SRu's in-queue (2012.1.3.XXX.2) would be superseded by the newest upstream stable snapshot (2012.1.4.XXX)
[17:02] <acalvo> dragoonis, any output?
[17:02] <zul> Daviey:  if the next SRU hunk happens next week thats fine with me ;)
[17:02] <dosaboy> Daviey: so one question I have is that the SRU ticket/public bug (this is tied to a private UA issue) is still in the "In progress state". Does it need updating?
[17:02] <dragoonis> acalvo: meh, just more crazy infinite startup loops
[17:02] <dosaboy> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/1119248
[17:02] <dragoonis> acalvo: it said some things liek 'unable to connect to the mysql server' so it ended the install and i ran 'service mysql stop'
[17:03] <dosaboy> adam_g: ack
[17:03] <Daviey> dosaboy: Nah, that is fine.  I was just looking at it in the archive queue for acceptance.. but before i accept it, i wanted to see how close we are to a larger nova upload
[17:03] <adam_g> dosaboy,  where did use_bare_container_format_by_default.patch come from? stable/essex?
[17:04] <dosaboy> Daviey: there is no immediate pressure for this since we provided the custmer with a hotfix for the interim
[17:04] <Daviey> adam_g: So, dosaboy's work is in your more recent upload?
[17:04] <adam_g> no
[17:04] <dosaboy> adam_g: yes stable/essex
[17:04]  * Daviey scratches his head
[17:04] <adam_g> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+queue?queue_state=1&queue_text=nova
[17:05] <adam_g> is this what we're talking about?
[17:05] <Daviey> yes
[17:05] <adam_g> one sec
[17:05]  * dosaboy checks
[17:06] <Daviey> dosaboy: I just removed the bad upload, of your 2... So we now have two proper ones
[17:07] <dosaboy> adam_g: so the top of those two is mine i.e. 2012.1.3+stable-20120827-4d2a4afe-0ubuntu1.2
[17:07] <dosaboy> 2013-02-19
[17:08] <dosaboy> adam_g, Daviey: does that look right?
[17:10] <adam_g> 2012.1.3+stable-20120827-4d2a4afe-0ubuntu1.2 (dosaboy's package) contains a cherry-picked patch from stable/folsom to fix his bug (LP: #1119248)
[17:10] <Daviey> dosaboy: yeah, trying to work out which one to accept
[17:10] <Daviey> it would be nice if we could do this with one upload :)
[17:10] <adam_g> that bug is actually an upstream bug  (LP: #921774) which was fixed in 2012.1.3
[17:11] <adam_g> the second pending SRU 2012.1.4+stable-20121217-9f277e38-0ubuntu1 is a snpashot of upstream stable/essex which should contain the same fix, in this case fixes the upstream bug (LP: #921774)
[17:11] <Daviey> adam_g: So i can drop dosaboy's upload, and yours will cover it?
[17:12] <adam_g> Daviey, it should, might check that the patch is really applied in the upstream orig.tar.gz. one sec
[17:12] <adam_g> Daviey, also, yolanda's upload :)
[17:12] <Daviey> okay, going afk.. will check back in 30 mins.
[17:12] <Daviey> adam_g: I'm looking at uploads in strict upload ordering :)
[17:13] <acalvo> dragoonis, any update?
[17:13] <acalvo> try to start in safe mode and reset the root password
[17:13] <adam_g> Daviey, yeah, that breaks down though when snapshots sit there for 3-4 months :\  people need fixes so they base them on the currently released package and we end up with duplication of work
[17:13] <dragoonis> acalvo: i'm deleting the package again and atttempting to reinstall
[17:14] <dragoonis> acalvo: the package install failed.
[17:14] <acalvo> dragoonis, clear the package cache
[17:14] <acalvo> apt-cache clean
[17:14] <dragoonis> ok
[17:15] <dragoonis> # apt-cache clean
[17:15] <dragoonis> E: Invalid operation clean
[17:15] <adam_g> Daviey, dosaboy yeah, the 2012.1.4+stable-20121217-9f277e38-0ubuntu1 upload is the one to accept. it contains dosaboy's cherry-picked fix + a bunch of others
[17:15] <acalvo> sorry
[17:15] <acalvo> apt-get clean
[17:17] <dragoonis> done.
[17:17] <dragoonis> going to re-install the package now and hope for the best

[17:20] <dragoonis> kill -9 worked
[17:21] <dragoonis> yay
[17:21] <dragoonis> ok reinstalling mysql-server now
[17:21] <RoyK> well, it works, but if you do a killall -9 on a BSD box, you learn it the hard way (it's like killall5 on linux)

[17:38] <acalvo> dragoonis, any difference?
[17:39] <dragoonis> totally not working
[17:39] <dragoonis> reinstalled, it installed perfectly
[17:39] <dragoonis> so I ran 'mysql --user=root -p'

[17:52] <dragoonis> no custom compiled. Ubuntu 10.10
[17:52] <RoyK> that's not supported anymore
[17:53] <RoyK> dragoonis: better upgrade to 12.04LTS
[17:53] <dragoonis> RoyK: do you retain all your user files when you upgrade? this is a production box
[17:54] <RoyK> yes
[17:54] <RoyK> but keeping a backup is always good
[17:54] <RoyK> something may go wrong
[17:54] <RoyK> but do-release-upgrade is fairly safe
[17:55] <dragoonis> I can spin up a new cloud box on ubuntu latest and copy the stuff over and wipe this one
[17:55] <RoyK> dragoonis: 10.10 support expired almost a year ago
[17:55] <RoyK> dragoonis: yes, or use do-release-upgrade three times to get it to 12.04LTS, which is supported until 2017
[17:56] <dragoonis> RoyK: okay, but i'll have to backup all my stuff first :)
[17:56] <dragoonis> I'll give it a go

[20:18] <orudie> greetings. Setting up squid proxy app on my server
[20:18] <orudie> I am able to connect to the proxy and browse the web with a browser
[20:18] <orudie> however, using the same proxy settings in irc client, I am unable to connect
[20:19] <orudie> in irc client I get error: HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden
[20:19] <orudie> and this is from squid access.log TCP_DENIED/403 3376 CONNECT irc.dal.net:6667 - NONE/- text/html
[20:20] <orudie> I started a forum post about this and someone suggested adding port 6667 to acl Safe_ports list which I have tried, but still having the same exact issue
[20:20] <orudie> here are the details on ubuntu forums with my post about the problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2123051&p=12546636&posted=1#post12546636
[20:21] <orudie> ideas / suggestions ?
[20:26] <RoyK> orudie: squid normally only accepts connections from localhost - see squid.conf
[20:26] <RoyK> and btw, that's not an app, it's a service
[20:26] <sarnold> squid .. to proxy _irc_??
[20:26] <orudie> RoyK, I added an ip address
[20:26] <sarnold> when was that added?
[20:26] <RoyK> hehe
[20:27] <RoyK> you can't proxy irc with squid
[20:27] <RoyK> squid is an http proxy
[20:27] <orudie> RoyK, why not ? I have it running and working on another host
[20:27] <RoyK> well, http != irc
[20:27] <RoyK> for a start
[20:28] <sarnold> if it works, it's purely by accident. I'd report it as a bug :)
[20:31] <orudie> hah
[20:32] <orudie> so what can I use to proxy irc ?
[20:32] <sarnold> orudie: an irc 'bouncer' such as bnc or znc.
[20:33] <orudie> so why do I see in network setup for two different irc clients under Proxy Server settings TYPE: HTTP, SOCKS4, SOCKS5 ?
[20:34] <orudie> and squid is in fact an http proxy, and it is working just fine as I said, but only on a different host
[20:37] <bitshuffler> Good evening. I'm trying to set up a pxe install via preseed. It always fails since it can't (naturaly?!) find the cd. How can I force it to do a net install (preferable from a local FTP where the content of the server iso is available)?
[20:38] <sarnold> orudie: you could run a socks4 or socks5 proxy if you wished; see e.g. socks4-server or dante-server
[20:38] <bitshuffler> mirror/protocol is set to ftp and mirror/ftp/directory points to the directory the cd content is copied to
[20:44] <bitshuffler> or do I need to use the netboot cd instead of the server one?
[20:46] <orudie> sarnold, i don't have any experience with either. What is easy to install and configure ?
[20:50] <sarnold> orudie: sorry, I haven't installed a socks proxy myself.
[20:50] <sarnold> orudie: an irc bouncer would be online all the time, whether or not you've connected an irc client
[20:50] <sarnold> orudie: so it is a very different thing than a socks proxy. but a socks proxy is useful for far more services...
[20:51] <orudie> sarnold, yeah makes sense, what is the difference between the socks4-server and dante-server apps ?
[20:51] <sarnold> orudie: dante-server can also do socks5
[21:16] <sinus> hello. I'm using an https proxy with username and passowrd. I use proxifier in windows. But in ubuntu i see lots of articles to handle it but I failed. Do u have any suggestion ?
[21:17] <jpds> sinus: Squid?
[21:18] <sinus> jpds: what?
[21:19] <jpds> sinus: Suggestions for what exactly, a proxy server or client?
[21:20] <sinus> I don't know. I have an https address. I think it'c client than server
[21:20] <jpds> sinus: Well, proxifier is a client (and this is a server channel, hence the server suggestion) - why not use the proxy settings in System Settings?
[21:21] <sinus> I want to use the https proxy to access the filtered websites, I live in Iran :)
[21:22] <sinus> I add this to network proxy  http://user:pass@us2-https.vpnmakers.com:443
[21:23] <sinus> sorry for my wrong entrance. I'm really confused. just help me
[21:23] <Daviey> adam_g: WOW, this nova has been in precise queue since mid December ?
[21:24] <Daviey> adam_g: surely it's missing a few security uploads now?
[21:24] <orudie> sinus, did you install the proxy server yourself ?
[21:25] <adam_g> Daviey, yeah, looks like it is.
[21:25] <sinus> No. I bought it. It's usual in Iran to bypass filtering. But people use it in windows. But I want it using in Ubuntu.
[21:27] <Daviey> adam_g: So we probably need to do it again?
[21:27] <Daviey> adam_g: Frustratingly, shall i drop all the essex uploads?
[21:28] <adam_g> Daviey, might as well., there are also uploads in-queue for quantal-proposed since ~02/21 that will likely fall to the same fate if they're not accepted soonish
[21:28] <Daviey> ScottK: What is the situation with your dkimpy upload, bug 1072726 - seems inconclusive what is holding up precise.
[21:29] <ScottK> Daviey: It needs an SRU person to acceptit.
[21:29] <Daviey> adam_g: That sucks.. I hate seeing wasted effort
[21:29] <ScottK> who isn't me ...
[21:29] <Daviey> ScottK: It's been there since 2012-10-29.. surely there is a reason it's been ignored?
[21:30] <ScottK> I don't have any definitive answer on that.  There was some concern about I accidentally dropped a debian/changelog entry, but it wasn't clear to me that was blocking.
[21:34] <sinus> Nothing for me !
[21:35] <Daviey> adam_g: Do we have an eta on next bundle of essex uploads?
[21:39] <sinus> thank you guys
[21:40] <adam_g> Daviey, i dont have an ETA. yolanda prepared the last stable/essex update. doesn't look like there is much hitting those upstream branches other than the security fixes already released
[21:41] <Daviey> adam_g: ah ok
[21:51] <ScottK> Daviey: I can reupload it with the fixed changelog, I'd just like someone to say definitively if I need to or not.
[21:52] <ScottK> IMO it's fine as is.
[21:53] <Daviey> ScottK: Considering it's been there so long.. I made a comment on the bug, Shall we wait for Monday/Tuesday to see if anyone understands why it was ignored ?
[21:53] <ScottK> Daviey: OK.  It was SpamapS that reviewed it before.
[21:53] <ScottK> AFAIK the changelog issue is the only reason.
[21:54] <Daviey> SpamapS: can you double confirm this? ^
[21:54] <SpamapS> hmm?
[21:54] <Daviey> 21:28 < Daviey> ScottK: What is the situation with your dkimpy upload, bug 1072726 - seems inconclusive what is holding up precise.
[21:54] <ScottK> SpamapS: My dkimpu SRU
[21:54] <Daviey> SpamapS: ^
[21:54] <ScottK> py even
[21:56] <SpamapS> Right, the deleting of the release pocket changelogs
[21:56] <SpamapS> not sure how that feedback never reached anyone
[21:56] <SpamapS> (and not sure why SRU team hasn't said it like 5 times)
[21:57] <SpamapS> ScottK: I thought I had poked you about it a long time ago. Definitely we want to maintain all released changelog entries.
[21:58] <ScottK> OK.  I'll fix.
[21:58] <SpamapS> ScottK: sorry for it sitting there w/o a clear answer
[21:58] <ScottK> Daviey: Please reject the current one.
[21:58] <SpamapS> ScottK: you can poke me when its re-uploaded and I'll take a look
[21:58] <SpamapS> ScottK: will be in a meeting for a while so don't be discouraged by my lack of response :)
[21:58] <Daviey> rejected.  Super, thanks ScottK/SpamapS
[21:59] <ScottK> Thanks.
[22:01] <Daviey> roaksoax: You sponsored a python-django change which is now superseeded by a security update.  So i need to reject for that.  My understanding is that the change this carries you don't want in precise anymore, due to solving the issue differently ?
[22:01] <Daviey> (but regardless, rejected)
[22:02] <roaksoax> Daviey: which one is that?
[22:02] <Daviey> roaksoax: GenericIpField
[22:02] <roaksoax> Daviey: yeah, but I had made uploads to -proposed removing that patch
[22:02] <roaksoax> Daviey: notified slangasek about it so he can review as per TB decision
[22:03] <Daviey> roaksoax: Ah, I didn't check the diff.. just the mention in the changelog.  It's been superseeded by security so you need to rebase
[22:03] <roaksoax> Daviey: ack! Will have a look
[22:04] <roaksoax> Daviey: i think we need to come out with a way to not have this kinda issues
[22:04] <Daviey> roaksoax: security superseeding?
[22:04] <roaksoax> Daviey: as in if we have something in -proposed and something else gets uploaded to -security with the same rev, we have to rebase what was in proposed
[22:05] <Daviey> roaksoax: I don't think it can be fixed.  Security should always trump bug fixes.
[22:05] <roaksoax> Daviey: agreed. Though it is wasted time for us
[22:05] <jdstrand> we try to notice that though, and make a note in the bug for -proposed that it happened. it doesn't always work that way though ...
[22:06] <Daviey> There have been a handful of times security team have nudged when an SRU is really close to completion, to check if they should infact base their update on the -proposed contents
[22:06] <Daviey> jdstrand: right.. It's a tough spot.
[22:06] <roaksoax> indeed
[22:07] <jdstrand> ftr, the same happens to us
[22:07] <roaksoax> i think that's why we need to improve the process some how
[22:07] <jdstrand> ie, we lovingly create and test our update, then we we go to publish, the one in proposed goes through, then we have to rebase to include the -proposed changes
[22:07] <roaksoax> being idealistic, it would be a cool thing to have automated tests for SRU test cases (that is providing a test case for an SRU)
[22:08] <roaksoax> but that's whole lot of another deal
[22:08] <Daviey> roaksoax: I've always been impressed with the testing that security updates undergo.  In many cases, we could learn from their test cases.
[22:08] <roaksoax> Daviey: agreed
[22:09] <roaksoax> Daviey: but i'm doing a "school project" which basically tries to "improve the sru process" by reducing the time it takes for verification, wianting time, etc, by adding automated tests for the bug we are trying to fix
[22:09] <roaksoax> Daviey: it is not a software project though, it is just purely theorical for the class purposes
[22:10] <Daviey> roaksoax: Interesting, would like to read your findings.
[22:11] <roaksoax> Daviey: will share them when I finish the project
[22:11] <roaksoax> Daviey: it is a Total Quality Management class following "six sigma" so it really is out of the scope of what we do, since it is pretty hard to apply six sigma to software
[22:12] <roaksoax> Daviey: and the professor agreed but still decided to do this project and see oif this would work out
[22:25] <ScottK> SpamapS and Daviey: reuploaded.
[22:34] <roaksoax> Daviey: ok django rebased
[22:39] <ScottK> roaksoax: It looks, at a glance, like the 1.3.1-4ubuntu1.5 changelog entry vanished from your python-django upload.
[22:42] <roaksoax> ScottK: yeah so the ubunt1.5 got removed from the archives, so I had to upload a ubuntu1.6, that was in -proposed. But since the security update was uploaded with ubuntu1.6 I'm thinking that that's where it disappeared
[22:42] <ScottK> Hmm.
[22:42] <ScottK> So are all the changes from 1.5 in the current upload?
[22:43] <roaksoax> ScottK: 2 out of 3 changes from 1.5 are in the ubuntu1.7 that I just uploaded. As per the TB decision, one change got implemented in MAAS
[22:43] <ScottK> OK.
[22:43] <ScottK> That's THAT upload.  Got it.
[22:44] <roaksoax> ScottK: yeah :).
[22:45] <ScottK> Accepted.
[22:47] <ScottK> Daviey: ^^^ your turn to accept mine ...
[22:47] <roaksoax> ScottK: cool thanks!
[22:47] <Daviey> I'm still not convinced monkey patching a database model type from upstream Django into an application is cleaner.. but OK :)
[22:48] <ScottK> It's cleaner for everybody else ...
[22:49] <Daviey> ScottK: Using the same namespace in Django, means it is opt-in to use that type, forward compatible and surely more supportable..
[22:50] <Daviey> I still think it is a valid bug that the current IP field type didn't suport IPv6, and upstream decided to solve this by creating a new field type, called this
[22:50] <Daviey> So not solving this bug in Django, is not allowing people to use ipv6 properly.
[22:50] <Daviey> So not sure how it is cleaner for other users..  But anyway, Done now.
