[01:02] <lolbee> How on earth do you install this crap on raid and what is up with 98% of the mirrors not working for quantal?
[02:18] <lolbee> I installed ubuntu server
[02:18] <lolbee> no I have no network interfaces
[05:16] <fluvvell> Somewhere my server install is going astray, the guided partitioning with my drive layout appears to break things. I have an SSD for OS, and two 1TB drives for a RAiD1 array. I could do all this on the command line later, but I want to understand the process from the installer.  Is there a trick to this?
[05:17] <fluvvell> And, I want to understand LVM, I realise the whys of it all, but is LVM applied before or after Raid configuration?
[05:22] <fluvvell> Do I allow the installer to setup guided partitioning on the SSD then interrupt it to setup the 1TB raid array manually?
[06:13] <Alysum> hello - I have a question regarding rsyslog
[06:13] <Alysum> does *.* - /var/log/syslog  mean log every file under /var/log to syslog?
[06:17] <andol> Alysum: *.* translates into all facilities and all severities
[06:17] <andol> Alysum: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syslog#Facility_Levels
[06:19] <Alysum> thanks
[06:22] <Alysum> what's the best way to ignore some custom logs from being logged to syslof
[06:58] <xnox> fluvvell: usually: raid -> (crypt) -> lvm -> filesystem -> mountpoint
[07:15] <fluvvell> xnox, Thanks. I'll set up raid1 first.
[07:15] <fluvvell> I still think there are some deficiencies in the installer
[07:16] <xnox> fluvvell: in what sense?
[07:23] <fluvvell> xnox, in the sense that I ran the guided partitioner: Trying to set up a logical solution, a fast SSD OS drive, and stable RAID1 storage drive for samba. A common use for a linux server, but I ended up with a scattered bunch of partitions and no explanation of the logic behind the partition scheme.
[07:24] <fluvvell> So for clarification, my complaints are specifically around the partitioner, I found the rest of the installer fine.
[07:25] <xnox> fluvvell: yeah, I see your point....
[10:10] <Walther> Trying to update & upgrade via apt-dater, I get "dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable
[11:51] <Walther> When using apt-dater to remotely update some software on a ubuntu server, i get "dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable". The apt-dater works fine with other servers.
[11:59] <Siebjee> Hi all, i'm running ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and my eth2 keeps disconnecting it self. ETH2 is a direct link to another server (identical hardware and software). Its a freshly installed server, up-to-date. Anyone can help me figure out what is going on ?
[12:00] <Siebjee> After a ethtool -r eth2, the link comes up again
[12:01] <gipzo> Hello. How can I start xserver (with xinit) on ubuntu server, without display? I have 4 TV's connected to server through hdmi-splitter. Sometimes displays are switching off and on again. If xinit was running while this switch-off - everything is ok.
[12:02] <gipzo> But when I try to start xinit without connected display (I added "1920x1080_60.00" mode to it, so it starts) i have black screen when i reconnect displays
[12:19] <amal> !cpanel
[12:19] <amal> oops
[12:22] <Mikk36-work> Hey
[12:22] <Mikk36-work> Trying to install vmware tools into the 12.04 lts server, but I'm having an issue with not having the /dev/cdrom available
[12:23] <Mikk36-work> What am I doing wrong?
[12:24] <Walther> When using apt-dater to remotely update some software on a ubuntu server, i get "dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable". The apt-dater works fine with other servers.
[12:27] <Mikk36-work> Nevermind, apparently autocomplete didn't work properly for that
[13:19] <Daviey> zul: I am going to sign us both up to Subject: [Openstack] Summit Runners
[13:19] <zul> Daviey: ok
[13:20] <zul> maybe i should read that email before saying ok
[13:20] <zul> Daviey:  uh no
[13:25] <rbasak> Could someone please review and sponsor bug 1163927 (puppet bugfixes from Debian) and bug 1164475 (feature regression since precise)?
[13:25] <rbasak> No patch pilots in today, and we're pretty close to release.
[13:26] <Daviey> zul: too late, request sent.
[13:27] <zul> Daviey:  im not down with that
[13:28] <Daviey> roaksoax: Uh, has verification failed - bug 1167660 ?
[13:29] <roaksoax> Daviey: nit that i know off
[13:30] <roaksoax> i have been runnin the package without issues
[13:31] <rbasak> lamont: hi! Any news on bug 1090593? seb128 didn't sponsor my debdiffs because you said you were going to backport the whole zone file instead, but there's been no activity.
[13:31] <Daviey> roaksoax: can you confirm with that bug?  It looks potentially bad.
[13:32] <lamont> rbasak: ah, let me follow up on that with folks.  ISTR that I did the backport, but we just haven't pushed the big red SRU button
[13:33] <lamont> but I'll need to refresh my brain
[13:33] <zul> hallyn:  whats the migration bug number again?
[13:33] <roaksoax> Daviey: thats what im looking at now. matsubara asked me to look at thus last night but the maas team got to it first it seems. but this doesnt make any sense cause otherwise i would have not been able to install maas myself
[13:33] <rbasak> lamont: thanks! IIRC, your original PPA backports had autotools noise unsuitable for SRU.
[13:33] <lamont> sounds about rightr
[13:35] <matsubara> roaksoax, do you test the cluster controller setup locally as well?
[13:36] <matsubara> because that failure only showed up in the CC integration tests
[13:36] <roaksoax> matsubara: yes!
[13:37] <roaksoax> matsubara: that packaging is in raring and raring doesnt have that issue
[13:37] <roaksoax> you can try install it and reconfigure
[13:37] <roaksoax> the issue i think is that you are sending a leading space
[13:37] <roaksoax> which is thw cause of the problem
[13:38] <roaksoax> but wit
[13:39] <roaksoax> matsubara: are you preeseding that value?
[13:39] <magesing> Hi everyone, How can I start x11vnc (or some other vnc server) so that I can see the login screen from a remote host?
[13:39] <roaksoax> matsubara: or how are you sending it
[13:40] <matsubara> roaksoax, yes, the preseed had a leading whitespace which I removed.
[13:40] <roaksoax> matsubara: ok
[13:40] <roaksoax> Daviey: ^^ leading whitespace was the cause of the issue
[13:40] <Daviey> right
[13:40] <matsubara> with the '' quotes, the package install correctly even with the leading whitespace
[13:41] <matsubara> I mean '$RET' quotes
[13:41] <hallyn> zul: bug 1157626
[13:41] <roaksoax> matsubara: and does it work well afterward? no issues if you rexonfigure and change the vvalue?
[13:42] <zul> hallyn:  thanks
[13:42] <hallyn> yup
[13:43] <roaksoax> Daviey: is that something you want fixed now? or shall that just be one maas accepted since this doesnt seem to be a blocker
[13:43] <roaksoax> s/one/onve
[13:43] <Daviey> roaksoax: TBH, i haven't grokked the issue
[13:43] <roaksoax> err
[13:44] <roaksoax> Daviey: ok is my opinion that it can wait until we release the sru since normal installations wont really be affected and
[13:45] <Daviey> roaksoax: So this is only an issue on preseeds?
[13:45] <roaksoax> Daviey: this is only when theres a leading whitespace in that variable
[13:45] <matsubara> roaksoax, I haven't tried. I'm firing up a vm to test
[13:46] <roaksoax> matsubara: ok ;)
[13:47] <roaksoax> matsubara: which imho wouldnt normally happen otherwise we would have seen it looong ago :)
[13:47] <roaksoax> Daviey: ^^
[13:50] <Daviey> matsubara: was that value preseedable in the prior release?
[13:51] <Daviey> it wans't was it?
[13:53] <matsubara> Daviey, I only tried the CC preseed on quantal and raring
[13:53] <matsubara> the precise.sru package have it as well, but the precise package does not
[14:00] <Daviey> matsubara / roaksoax: Right, so if i install from the precise cd (& preseed), i cannot suddenly break by upgrading to this release?
[14:04] <Daviey> mgz: Hey.  You may know this.. A while ago, i volunteered to NEW review juju-core if it was uploaded this week.  Is that still looking like it will make it?
[14:05] <matsubara> Daviey, by precise cd you mean not the sru package right?
[14:05] <mgz> that's the plan, though I'm on a plane tomorrow
[14:05] <Daviey> matsubara: correct
[14:05] <mgz> so, m_3 and I need to get the remaining bits done today
[14:06] <Daviey> mgz: Having /something/ is better than /nothing/.  There is still time to make fixes, but having a first pass would be most useful
[14:06] <Daviey> mgz: Please, Please consider using gccgo.
[14:06] <matsubara> ok, then you can't preseed maas-cluster-controller and even if you could, you would have to have a leading whitespace in your preseed to trigger the bug
[14:06] <Daviey> matsubara: sounds suitably ok for it not to be a blocker, thanks for the confirmation
[14:09] <Fieldy> hello, in what package can I find smbclient? I already have samba installed however smbclient is not. apt-cache search smbclient doesn't lead me to results that help me figure it out
[14:09] <Fieldy> yum search smbclient (i'm on way too many systems)
[14:09] <Fieldy> no wait apt-cache. i just woke up
[14:11] <matsubara> np
[14:11] <mgz> Daviey: I think at this point in the afternoon, that may not be tractable.
[14:11] <zul> Daviey/hallyn/jamespage (or those playing at home): just throwing a debdiff and a build log for the libvirt FFE
[14:11] <rbasak> Fieldy: it's in the smbclient package.
[14:13] <Daviey> mgz: I am not happy reviewing alone something that includes static linking.  So it will slow down the process.  I passed through the chain guidance on Go packaging, did it reach you?
[14:14] <mgz> alas no
[14:14] <mgz> can you forward?
[14:16] <Daviey> mgz: hmm, can't find it now.. but https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/01/msg00702.html .. was useful
[14:17]  * Daviey ponders, waiting for the netsplit to end
[14:18] <mgz> :)
[14:20] <RoyK> så har du mitt tilskudd i samtalen
[14:20] <RoyK> huh?
[14:20] <hallyn> zul: thx
[14:21] <Daviey> mgz: Do you want some help?
[14:23] <mgz> Daviey: yes, I think so, let me just finish off the python proposal and look at the go stuff again
[14:24] <smoser> utlemming, around ?
[14:24] <Daviey> mgz: From a release PoV, something really does need to be in this week IMO.
[14:24] <smoser> i wonder if you have ever tried using our cloud images under hyper-v
[14:24] <mgz> Daviey: yup.
[14:24] <smoser> and would know how to convert successfully a disk1.img (qcow2) to vhd.
[14:24] <utlemming> smoser: yes, yes, and yes
[14:25] <smoser> vbox convert ?
[14:25] <utlemming> smoser: kind of...
[14:26] <utlemming> smoser: qcow-img convert to raw. Then vbox convert to VHD. And finally vbox convert to fixed size.
[14:26] <utlemming> smoser: the last step is needed for azure
[14:26] <smoser> nice.
[14:26] <smoser> do you happen to have a script that goes directly ?
[14:27] <utlemming> smoser: the reason for qcow convert to raw first is that Hypver-V doesn't like the qcow VPC
[14:27] <utlemming> smoser: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-on-ec2/vmbuilder/jenkins_kvm/view/head:/azure_config.sh
[14:30] <smoser> utlemming, thanks.
[15:29] <mgz> Daviey: I'm off IRC for the next half hour, but have uploaded python juju debdiff to ffe bug
[15:36] <smoser> utlemming, can you not go straight from raw to --variant= fixed ?
[15:37] <utlemming> smoser: not for Azure. It doesn't create the header right, so Azure basically say, "WTF" and you're upload fails. For Hyper-V I've seen it hit or miss.
[15:47] <benlangfeld> Hey, does anyone here know who maintains the vagrant base box http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid64.box ? I'm trying to find out who I have to beg to update the chef ruby version.
[15:48] <benlangfeld> sorry, precise64 *
[15:50] <smoser> utlemming, https://gist.github.com/smoser/5364534
[15:52] <utlemming> smoser: looks sane
[16:02] <hallyn> sarnold: is your email the gmail one?  (want to cc: you on a rfc patch for lxc locking)
[16:18] <Daviey> jamespage: packaging.get_package_origin(package) == 'Canonical' <-- where does that get fulfilled? Is that the Origin field in the UCA Release file?
[16:27] <sarnold> hallyn: seth.arnold@canonical.com please -- gmail works, but is now out of my usual daily workflow :)
[16:41] <hallyn> sarnold: gotcha, thanks
[16:42] <sarnold> thanks hallyn :)
[17:11] <yousaf> hello
[17:11] <yousaf> I need to run this command ps -ef | grep oil | grep worker | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9 every hour
[17:11] <yousaf> how can I set the cron job?
[17:13] <sarnold> yousaf: you can either place a shell script in /etc/cron.hourly/ or you can edit the crontab of the user of your choice with sudo -u username crontab -e   and add a crontab entry starting with 0 * * * * ps -ef | grep oild | grep ...
[17:14] <yousaf> which one is prefered?
[17:14] <Pici> also , pgrep or pkill might work better than your command
[17:14] <yousaf> i am root
[17:14] <yousaf> Pici ps -ef | grep oil | pgrep worker | awk '{print $2}' | xargs pkill -9
[17:14] <yousaf> like that?
[17:15] <sarnold> yousaf: the /etc/cron.hourly/ feels easier to set up to me, but I think the only guarantee there is that it happens hourly -- not at any specific minute of the hour.
[17:15] <sarnold> yousaf: so if you want to control at which minute within the hour the task runs, editing a crontab makes sense. if it is good enough to happen every hour, then the directory with script is easier..
[17:16] <yousaf> I don't need to be specific
[17:16] <Pici> yousaf: no, like pkill -9 worker   (use pgrep to test whether it matches what you think it should match)
[17:16] <yousaf> as long as it runs that commands once every hour i am good
[17:20] <Daviey> adam_g: Subject: [Openstack] Grizzly release packages available in the Ubuntu Cloud Archive <-- last post about having to change the setting, to get a working non ubuntu themed horizon.. is that true?
[17:22] <jamespage> Daviey, I suspect subdomains of canonical.com
[17:23] <Daviey> jamespage: I would like to know for sure.
[17:23] <jamespage> Daviey, I worked that fix through with pitti prior to uploading
[17:23] <jamespage> and have tested
[17:24] <Daviey> jamespage: Right. but i'd like to personally understand what changes could break it :)
[17:25] <Daviey> jamespage: I wondered if it was using the Origin here. http://ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com/dists/precise-proposed/folsom/main/binary-amd64/Release
[17:25] <mgz> Daviey: fixed meh debdiff, sorry about that
[17:26] <jamespage> Daviey, yeah - thats where it comes from - just read the code
[17:26] <jamespage> it backs onto apt python bindings
[17:26] <jamespage> Daviey, "        origin    - The Origin, as set in the Release file"
[17:27] <Daviey> jamespage: Okay, that is good to know.  I put Canonical in that field as a stop gap, wuthout careful consideration.  We now know we canot change it
[17:27] <jamespage> Daviey, well we can change it - but we need to update the check :-)
[17:27] <Daviey> And more so.. re-mirroring or using the staging PPA will not allow that to work
[17:28] <jamespage> Daviey, I think its sufficient for the check
[17:28] <Daviey> jamespage: I think you have a good filter :)
[17:28] <jamespage> Canonical + ~cloud
[17:28] <jamespage> Daviey, its been accepted into precise-proposed as well
[17:29] <Daviey> it has?
[17:29] <jamespage> Daviey, albeit with a slightly different setup for the older version of apport
[17:29] <jamespage> Daviey, yep
[17:29] <jamespage> just got the email
[17:29] <Daviey> yeah i reviewed it earlier. I was waiting for confirmation on Origin before i accepted it
[17:29] <Daviey> I see someone else beat me
[17:30] <jamespage> Daviey, yep
[17:31] <adam_g> Daviey, that shouldn't be the case. i can try now, though
[17:31] <Daviey> adam_g: sounded wrong to me, but i wasn't confident stating such - without checking
[17:33] <adam_g> Daviey, nah, 'dpkg -P  openstack-dashboard-ubuntu-theme' and the vanilla dashboard is fine
[17:34] <adam_g> Daviey, well actually thats a PPA package, let me try /w what we have in the CA
[17:42] <adam_g> Daviey, yeah, working okay
[17:42] <jamespage> adam_g, it should make no difference - I've been twidding between ubuntu and stock themes no problem
[17:42] <adam_g> jamespage, im wondering if he's just using a pkg version where things weren't compressed okay. i know zul recompressed everything yesterday
[17:42] <jamespage> adam_g, Daviey: zul's regenerated assets for horizon are not in UCA for grizzly as well
[17:42] <jamespage> might be
[17:43] <Marko> hi all!
[17:43] <zul> i uploaded horizon ubuntu2 to staging and raring yesterday
[17:44] <adam_g> 1:2013.1-0ubuntu2~cloud0 is what i just tested
[17:44] <thekev> utlemming/ivoks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1150737 - know if there's a new 12.04 AMI that incorporates this?
[17:45] <utlemming> thekev: one should be going out shortly
[17:45] <utlemming> thekev: there is a build pending right now
[17:46] <utlemming> thekev: actually, http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/precise/release-20130325/ should have that fix
[17:46] <thekev> I see 20130325 on cloud-images.ubuntu.com
[17:47] <thekev> (/locator/ec2). thanks
[17:52] <jamespage> Daviey, can you accept apport into raring?
[17:52] <jamespage> pls
[17:52] <Daviey> yes
[17:54] <irv> i'm getting the following: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5699212/
[17:55] <irv> when i try to run update
[18:11] <Crazy_> Hello! I need help. I've installed Ubuntu Server 12.10, set it up, installed openvpn. I can connect from the lan to the vpn and ping the server (10.8.0.1). I can also connect from outside the network, but i can't ping the server. The network is connected to Internet via a NAT router where I've opened vpn port to the server
[18:13] <Crazy_> Can anyone help me?
[18:13] <thekev> you are pinging the nat router
[18:14] <thekev> or is this after you establish vpn?
[18:15] <thekev> ok I think that's what you meant.  when you connect from the lan to the vpn, are you also in the same localnet as the server?
[18:16] <thekev> from outside to the vpn, what routes do you push?
[18:16] <thekev> netstat -rn on the vpn client
[18:17] <mgz> Daviey: I've sent an email about the go juju packaging, hopefully it's a correct summary of what's left to do
[18:21] <thekev> crazy_: I'm afk. sorry, can't wait around
[18:21] <Crazy_> thekev
[18:21] <Crazy_> sorry, i didnt't read you
[18:22] <Crazy_> i was searching in ubuntu forums
[18:23] <Crazy_> thekev: I've stablished the vpn connection. It's ok
[18:23] <Crazy_> I don't know what is a localnet, can you help me?

[18:59] <ppetraki> hallyn, ping, you think one could setup a maas server from within an LXC instance without any networking issues?
[18:59] <hallyn> ppetraki: if you bridge the container nic with the host's nic, I would think so
[18:59] <aandy> hi, i'm running a (very) minimalistic install, which doesn't even support loop. e.g. it says "try using modprobe loop". any idea what i'm suppose to "get", or if i would get it from a apt-get upgrade?
[19:01] <Pippocaruso> hi guys... One question. What's the best way to send your public rsa key???
[19:04] <lwizardl> okay so I was on the phone for the last hour with comcast trying to get them to unblock port 25 and all the would do it offer remote admin to change the settings in outlook. So I am going to change services soon but would smarthost work with comcast for email servers ?
[19:18] <Daviey> mgz: looks good to me
[19:18] <Daviey> mgz: I do think it's massively unfortunate it seems gccgo is shelved
[19:19] <mgz> yeah
[19:22] <mgz> Daviey: if you have any suggestions on how we can do the packaging branch, given it requires multiple source branches, without being revolting, that would be really helpful
[19:23] <Daviey> mgz: Does my hello world, branch help?
[19:31] <mgz> Daviey: I don't see that referenced anywhere, can you give me a pointer?
[19:32] <Daviey> mgz: Sorry, it was OT
[19:33] <ppetraki> hallyn, thanks
[19:33] <hallyn> ppetraki: np - lemme know if you hit issues
[19:42] <Daviey> mgz: Where is the latest juju-core packaging source?
[19:44] <mgz> what we have is what's used for the ppa, at lp:~dave-cheney/juju-core/package
[19:44] <mgz> plus m_3's changes for the coinstallability in a seperate branch
[19:46] <Daviey> ta
[19:47] <mgz> Daviey: you really need to see https://code.launchpad.net/~dave-cheney/+recipe/juju-core for the current state to make sense
[19:50] <syncsys_> Can a linux server make a domain with windows clients and use similar like active directory to install sofwares on ALL windows clients?
