[13:27] Can someone help me with an error? I am trying to do an apt-get update on my lucid server and get the following: W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release.gpg Could not connect to archive.ubuntu.com:80 (2001:67c:1360:8c01::1a). - connect (101 Network is unreachable) [IP: 2001:67c:1360:8c01::1a 80] [13:30] Hello? [13:30] Merkidemis, I see you ... perhaps it's SysAdmin coffeebreak? [13:31] it is early on a sunday... [13:31] Merkidemis: Having a broken IPv6 connectivity? [13:31] Merkidemis: At least myself I have no problem talking http over ipv6 to that address. [13:32] andol: probably, though I'd be fine if apt would just use IPv4 [13:34] andol: I have tried changing gai.conf, commenting the ailias in modprobe.d/ailiases, adding entries to hosts to map the URL to the IPv4 address, adding lines to sysctl.conf to disable IPv6 (which results in a 97 protocol not supported error)... [13:35] andol: the machine currenlty has a Link IPv6 address, but I can't ping6 anything (network unreachable error). Like I said, if I could get APT to use IPv4 I'd be happy [15:08] Can someone help me with an error? I am trying to do an apt-get update on my lucid server and get the following: W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release.gpg Could not connect to archive.ubuntu.com:80 (2001:67c:1360:8c01::1a). - connect (101 Network is unreachable) [IP: 2001:67c:1360:8c01::1a 80] [15:09] archive.ubuntu.com is up though [15:09] I can ping [15:09] can you? [15:11] ./etc/network/interfaces might not be setup right === wedgwood_away is now known as wedgwood [15:13] yes, I can ping it just fine over ipv4 [15:13] Here is my interfaces: [15:13] auto lo [15:13] iface lo inet loopback [15:13] # The primary network interface [15:13] auto eth0 [15:13] iface eth0 inet static [15:13] address 192.168.10.250 [15:13] netmask 255.255.255.0 [15:13] network 192.168.10.0 [15:13] broadcast 192.168.10.255 [15:13] gateway 192.168.10.1 [15:14] apt-get update 2> /tmp/keymissing; for key in $(grep "NO_PUBKEY" /tmp/keymissing |sed "s/.*NO_PUBKEY //"); do echo -e "\nProcessing key: $key"; sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys $key ; done [15:15] then update [15:15] again [15:15] ;'/ [15:16] !pastebin [15:16] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [15:17] one sec [15:18] pastebin ifconfig output too [15:18] seems it's trying to reach an IPv6 address and you only have IPv4 configured [15:56] hey guys i have a old p4 1.6ghz and I want to use it to do a proxy server they said server is the best but I don't know command line any ideas or is it possible to do being Im a noob? [15:58] packetfrog: copied the above into a bash script, ran it, then tried doing an update again. Same errors [15:58] cyberglyph, it's easy enough, but you will have to use cli, no matter what [15:58] copy/paste to terminal and hit enter [15:58] so might as well start learning [15:58] tell me what it says [15:59] cyberglyph, google for a tutorial "ubuntu proxy server tutorial" or whatever read it if you think you can, you can. === security is now known as megha [16:01] packetfrog: trying again, one moment while it tries the connections [16:07] packetfrog: still getting Err http://archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates Release.gpg [16:07] Could not connect to archive.ubuntu.com:80 (2001:67c:1360:8c01::18). - connect (101 Network is unreachable) [IP: 2001:67c:1360:8c01::18 80] [16:08] cyberglyph, you will have to use the command line to set up the server software regardless if you have a GUI installed, because that's how it's done; there are no GUI tools to do it for you [16:09] cyberglyph, installing a GUI on the server end is therefore a waste of resources and a potential security vulnerability [16:10] ok thats cool but i don't know command level stuff so I would be wasting my time with the server or should I try to learn a little to get up and going [16:10] you should try to learn, it's not that hard [16:11] cyberglyph, You dont need to learn any of it. [16:11] It is not going to make you anonymous by running a proxy server in your home network [16:11] there are other reasons to use proxies, such as caching/optimization and authentication [16:12] Not that he wants [16:12] or asked about anyhow [16:12] Merkidemis, You can ping that host right? [16:13] via ipv4, yes [16:14] packetfrog: ttl=47, average time is 140 for each ping [16:15] Do you have a firewall running? [16:15] packetfrog: never set one up on here, let me double check the router [16:22] packeetfrog: firewall disabled on router, iptables -L shows: Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) [16:22] target prot opt source destination [16:22] Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) [16:22] target prot opt source destination [16:22] Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) [16:22] target prot opt source destination [16:22] Is this on going? or just a new issue? [16:23] packetfrog: new in that I haven't tried to do an update for a long time. All my other services that I have running, namely my mediatomb server, still works just fine. [16:29] Merkidemis, Can I PM you? [16:29] I do not feel like pastebinning [16:30] sure thing === wedgwood is now known as wedgwood_away [17:36] packetfrog: plugging directly into the router (bypassing the switch) "fixed" the problem and allowed me to do updates [17:56] does anyone know how to set apache to return an https connection? [17:58] packetfrog: and of course after the update and upgrade I can't ssh into it anymore [17:59] i'm having trouble with vlan traffic since a kernel upgrade, i'm seeing outgoing traffic from bond0.3 being transmitted on bond0, but incoming traffic (identified by tcpdump as vlan3) isn't being copied to bond0.3 === HelenCrowley is now known as LS-MFT [18:26] is there a way to run 10.04 with a much newer kernel? there seem to be bugs in both 3.0.0-32 and 2.6.32-46 [18:32] you can run it with any kernel you want [18:32] at some point you will hit libc issues, and other utility issues [18:32] but it is probably going be just fine, cause 10.04 isn't that old [18:33] what would be the best approach? is there a ppa i can look to? [18:33] you could [18:33] but why bother using a ppa? [18:33] simplicity [18:34] unless there is a trivial way to compile a kernel with appropriate drivers, i haven't done it for years [18:34] I don't understand how using a ppa is easier than not doing anything [18:35] linux-image-server-lts-backport-maverick - Linux kernel image on Server Equipment. [18:35] linux-image-server-lts-backport-natty - Linux kernel image on Server Equipment. [18:35] linux-image-server-lts-backport-oneiric - Linux kernel image on Server Equipment. [18:36] odd I couldn't locate a precise backported one [18:37] i'm not sure what versions those refer to [18:37] 10.10, 11.04, 11.10 [18:38] really, just ask your computer what they are [18:38] i mean kernel versions, i assume whatever currently ships with those releases [18:38] i'd really like the precise kernel [18:38] as i know that works [18:38] serialy use apt-cache show [18:38] heh? upgrade to precise then [18:38] why bother sticking iwth 10.04? [18:39] i intend to upgrade [18:39] but in the meantime, i'm looking to avoid a couple of specific bugs [18:39] i'm sad that the bugfixes haven't been backported, but i guess they're not common enough [18:40] what bugfix? [18:41] 2.6.32 has a bug that causes some systems to crash after 200 days [18:41] heh? that is not very descriptive at all [18:41] and I have not see nthat, with many systems running for much longer than that [18:42] only some systems are affected [18:42] unfortunately almost all of mine [18:42] i think it affects specific CPUs with virtualization enabled [18:42] well, all my systems have vt enabled [18:42] though I only have 1 amd system [18:43] i know it's intel specific [18:43] well, there isn't anything I can do, unless you can point to this bug, or bugfix [18:43] as your groping around with very general ideas, and no idea what is going on [18:44] patdk-lap: i don't understand, are you an ubuntu maintainer? [18:44] define that [18:44] ok, well since you seem to care, the bug is described in detail here: http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7009834 [18:45] not sure what version it as fixed in the upstream kernel [18:46] upgrading to linux-image-server-lts-backport-oneiric fixes it, but also introduces broken vlan support on my NICs, i could try linux-image-server-lts-backport-natty, i'll just need to verify that it contains the fix for the crash [18:47] hmm, tsc unstable, that seems to be an issue [18:47] I don't have any system with that [18:48] not sure if it's also this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/805341 [18:48] Launchpad bug 805341 in linux "sched clock overflows in 208 days (i386 and amd64)" [Undecided,Fix released] [18:48] seems more specific [18:49] same issue [18:50] This was fixed in Lucid already in: 2.6.32.50 [18:50] According to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/902317 [18:50] Launchpad bug 902317 in linux "Lucid update to 2.6.32.50 stable release" [Undecided,Fix released] [18:50] that thread claims that its fixed in lucid [18:51] hmm. 2.6.32.38 [18:51] 2.6.32-38 ubuntu kernel version [18:52] well my issue occurs in vmlinuz-2.6.32-46-generic [18:52] but what is your issue? [18:52] you have a panic? [18:52] so we can be sure it's the *same* issue? [18:52] no, it's a slowdown [18:52] it leaves hosts pingable, but useless [18:52] well, different issue is different [18:53] ok [18:53] i'll have to look harder for related bugs them [18:53] *then [18:55] just looking for logs now [18:57] all i see in the logs is a lot of blocked processes [18:57] eg. INFO: task cron:1709 blocked for more than 120 seconds. [18:58] i do have constant_tsc and nonstop_tsc [18:59] hello how do i fix server 10.04 lts, system broke while trying to upgrade [18:59] server cd with fix option didnt work for me as i couldnt choose right options as i didnt want my partition to be destroyed [19:00] another question might be why bnx2+bridge+vlan is broken in 3.0.0-32-generic, but that's not somewhere i'm focusing [19:07] patdk-lap: thanks for all your help, i believe i was mistaken, and the bug has now been patched in linux-image-2.6.32-38-server on lucid [19:08] if your system remains up, but slow, it's not that bug [19:08] it's something else [19:08] (assuming my bug is the same, which i'm convinced it is) [19:08] oh, perhaps i'm mistaken then [19:08] :( [19:09] same cpu flags, same timeframe [19:09] yes, that tsc thing might be affecting other things also [19:09] and that might still need to be fixed [19:09] the ubuntu bug mentions "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 17163091968s" [19:09] that doesn't sound like a panic [19:10] the suse one was a panic [19:10] it was, but the ubuntu one is a soft lockup [19:10] that softlockup would be it just noticing the time jump [19:10] it didn't really lockup [19:11] "Other problems caused by this overflow include task scheduler unfairness. softlockups ('stuck for 61s!') are observed in 210~220 days after reboot but I've not yet succeeded to explain the logic." [19:11] can't be sure but it certainly all seems related [19:13] my dsl has slowed to such a crawl i can't work any more [19:13] i will most likely upgrade everything to 2.6.32-46 and plan a proper 12.04 migration within the next 200 days in case [19:13] thanks again for your help Patrickdk [19:14] too hard to backup and do a test upgrade? [19:14] my upgrades from lucid to precise have gone extreemly well [19:15] i prefer reinstall and data restore [19:15] but that's fine [19:16] how do i reinstall 10.04 without losing data and w/o repartitioning? [19:16] my system broke [19:16] the installer should let you do that, but i'd be worried about my data in doing so [19:17] just mark the root partition as the root partition and select not to format it [19:18] it asks for partitioning always which will result in losing data :( [19:18] no it does not [19:18] it asks for partition information, but doesn't make you change anything [19:19] so if i try to upgrade it keeps all info on HD? [19:21] burnt the new version [19:21] lemme try with that [20:56] I think this is more an ubuntu issue than vagrant so i'll ask for advice here: https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/289 [20:56] i tried the 2 lowest suggestions, but they didnt help.. it still fails on apt-get -y upgrade with Errors were encountered while processing: grub-pc [20:57] because it wants to do package configuration which is not easy from vagrant [21:02] #freenode said try here so here's what's going on ok so i just have installed the hybrid irc server for ubuntu 12.04 thru ssh and i need help setting my message of the day and conniction info it's running on a remote server [21:04] brb just pm me [21:37] so how would i go about what i need to do [21:38] what ircd software? [21:43] uh hybrid irc and i need to set up a hybserv to talk to the hybrid irc [21:43] not much command line exp in linux as i mainly just use windows 7 [21:44] http://www.the-tech-tutorial.com/?p=709 [21:44] live long and prosper. [22:05] packetfrog: so, if I change the static ip from 192.168.1.250 to 192.168.1.25 everything is fine, and it can be on the switch. I do so love networking.... [22:06] LOL [22:06] Nice! At least you got it done.. [22:07] * packetfrog claps [22:08] packetfrog: i've looked at that tut and another one and i'm just not catching on [22:13] KatyPerryX420, Then you should likely find something else to do with your time. pretty straight forward... :p [22:13] or hire a sysadmin to do it for you [22:13] :P [22:18] Hi! Is there an easy way to get the ip address of my lxc container? [22:37] I don't know how many times i've visited ubuntuforums.org with a post that said [SOLVED] and didn't find the solution :)
