[00:10] jamespage, on-the-fly stable branch changelog generation happening in bzr now for folsom and grizzly, eg: lp:~openstack-ubuntu-testing/nova/folsom-commit-tracking [00:20] what sense does it make to have a pae only install cd kernel!?!? [00:20] someone using 32bit, should later update to pae kernel if they need it. the install cd apears useless as is [00:26] Daviey, if you have a minute the latest openstack stable stuff (2013.1.2) is in-queue for raring-proposed [03:26] stgraber: do you think you'll be pushing any fixes to saucy/lxc in the next week? if so i'd like to sneak the lxc-stop exit code fix in there with it [03:27] hallyn: pretty busy with the Ubuntu Touch image updater at the moment and don't have anything urgent on my lxc todolist, so I'm unlikely to have an upload to do [03:28] hallyn: oh, though I still need to take a quick look at that merge proposal of yours, I guess you could bundle the lxc-stop fix with that [03:30] hallyn: MP processed, sorry for the delay there, forgot to put it on my todolist... [03:31] stgraber: cool, thanks [05:45] I have a software RAID 5 array where one of the hard drives died--I got a replacement hard drive, but do I need to initialize it before I try to add it into my array? I ask because I tried to add it into my array and it is not automatically resyncing === smb` is now known as smb [10:56] jamespage: https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/heat/ubuntu-refresh/+merge/168517 === matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch [11:18] zul: salute === rbasak_ is now known as rbasak [11:53] koolhead17: hey [11:55] zul: how are things sir? long time [11:55] koolhead17: busy [11:55] zul: hopefully things would have gone much easier now [11:56] koolhead17: you would think so ;) [11:57] i mean better than before for sure. See am not making much noise here [11:57] :D [12:03] neither am i [12:08] zul: is that not evident we are in peace :P [12:43] hallyn: i havent had a chance to run the libvirt qa testsuite but 1.0.7 works ok for me [12:47] zul: ok, cool [12:47] 1.0.7? o.O [12:48] i suspect he meant 1.0.6? [12:49] ok, thought maybe I blacked out for a few weeks :P [12:59] hallyn: it's not in your ppa right? [13:00] 1.0.6 has fixed the migration issues for other distros users I have talked to [13:06] yeah 1.0.6 [13:10] mardraum: not in mine, nope [13:16] jamespage: http://people.canonical.com/~chucks/ca/ [13:19] Hi. After upgrading to 13.04 I see no cursor in any of the installed desktops (fwmm, wdm, fluxbox).. Xorg reports no errors - the mouse works fine [13:19] default wm is wdm [13:27] AtuM: #ubuntu please [13:30] zul, that's on the server distro.. desktop guys point me to this channel.. besides.. with the earlier kernel version (3.5.x) mouse cursor is seen.. with the latest one it is not === wedgwood_away is now known as wedgwood [13:37] is there a way to get a newer kernel installed? [13:41] zul, bug 1189909 [13:41] Launchpad bug 1189909 in quantum "dhcp-agent does not provide IP address for instances with re-cycled IP addresses." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1189909 [13:41] gah [13:42] zul, took me a while to track that one down [13:42] jamespage: awesome! ;) [13:47] using 3.8.0.23 the cursor is inivisble, using 3.8.0.22 the keyboard and mouse don't work.. system freezes (using usb keyboard, no ps2 port). will try an even older version [13:48] AtuM: Ubuntu server doesn't have any gui at all, you should be asking in #ubuntu [13:48] Pici.. so installation of fwwm uses desktop repos? [13:50] AtuM: Both -server and -desktop share the same repositories. [13:51] Pici, then how come i have 3.8.0-19 as the latest kernel.. and the server has 3.8.0-23 ? [13:52] AtuM: Sounds like you don't have the -updates or -security repositories activated. 3.8.0-19 was the version that was provided when 13.04 was released. [13:54] Pici, thanks. hope I get this issue solved in #ubuntu ;) [15:13] !info hockeypuck precise-backports [15:13] Package hockeypuck does not exist in precise-backports [15:13] Meh.

[15:18] utlemming, are the maas simplestreams ready ? i think there is still work there, right? [15:18] smoser: yeah [15:19] so there is work to get the streams correct on maas.ubuntu.com/images [15:19] smoser: yeah, I was just looking [15:19] ok [15:19] smoser: its being generated...just not correctly, I think [15:20] smoser: I can get that done this week [15:22] roaksoax, but my plan was to use the command-sync tool 'sstream-sync' [15:23] smoser: ok, so replace maas-import-ephemerals to use sstream-sync instead? [15:23] thats the basic idea, yeah. and also we'll have data for pxe files too [15:24] smoser: ok, so that would replace maas-import-pxe-files and maas-import-ephemerals all together [15:24] tools/hook-image-id in lp:simplestreams might be a start. [15:24] smoser: and what about the root images? are we still looking into generating them from a script? [15:24] tools/hook-check-downloads too [15:25] roaksoax, i'm still not sure what to do there... [15:25] i really dont towice [15:25] i really dont want to download the same data twice [15:25] smoser: yeah [15:25] makes sense [15:26] the path that sabdfl wants is to just use the ephemeral image for the source [15:26] by 'cp /' [15:26] right [15:34] zul: just testing this stuff now prior to upload for staging - http://people.canonical.com/~jamespage/ca-updates/ [15:34] the json-* ones also need a look [15:34] zul, http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/ubuntu-server/cloud-archive/havana_versions.html [15:36] jamespage: +1 [15:36] anyone have a upto date guide on making a ubuntu web server with zpanel or webim?

[17:48] Nishok: what does ls -l /etc/init/mysql.conf give you? [17:48] zotta: apt-get purge bind9 should do the trick (it will remove everything of bind9) [17:49] sarnold: ls: cannot access /etc/init/mysql.conf: No such file or directory [17:49] Nishok: is mysql-server-5.5 installed? [17:49] Removing bind9 ... [17:49] * Stopping domain name service... bind9 resolvconf: Error: /run/resolvconf/interface either does not exist or is not a directory [17:49] invoke-rc.d: initscript bind9, action "stop" failed.

[17:51] Nishok: what does dpkg -l 'mysql*' look like? [17:52] sarnold: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_1952.png [17:53] Nishok: aha :) normal is 'ii', 'iU' indicates something is wrong.. try dpkg-reconfigure -a [17:54] sarnold: TIL :D [17:54] Anyways, here: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_1953.png [17:56] Nishok: harumph. :) okay, try "dpkg-reconfigure mysql-client-5.5 mysql-server mysql-server-core-5.5" ... [17:58] sarnold: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_1957.png [17:59] What would be the tar command to put /dir1 /dir2 /dir3 in a .tar.gz called backup_YYYYMMDD? [17:59] Nishok: there might be a 'polite' way to fix this, but if this were mine, I'd copy the databases and configurations elsewhere, apt-get purge everything, and re-install. [17:59] I have a backup [18:00] sarnold: I have a backup of the whole /var/lib/mysql/ folder [18:00] Is that all I need? [18:00] Nishok: and probably /etc/my* something [18:02] sarnold: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_2001.png [18:02] Nishok: uninstall mysql-server, mysql-server-5.5, and so forth, in the same command [18:05] sarnold: All clean: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_2005.png [18:05] What is the best way to install them again? [18:06] Nishok: mysql-server-5.5 is still 'in', not 'un'... I'd do that one too === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [18:07] sarnold: Do I run the autoremove? http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_2006.png [18:07] Nishok: not yet, maybe later.. [18:07] sarnold: Well, then the mysql-server-5.5 will stay "in" [18:09] Nishok: okay. now, hopefully "apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client" will do the right thing [18:10] sarnold: Ended with an error? http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_2010.png [18:11] see the line about disk space? [18:11] Nishok: "no space left on device" for /var/cache --- you've got bigger problems to solve. :) [18:12] *sigh* once again, odd errors that don't look right --> should check disk space first. How many times do I have to learn that lesson? [18:12] sarnold: I already checked disk.. it has 9GB left D: http://therealnishok.com/screensnapr/2013-06-11_2012.png [18:13] Nishok: the important column is 'Avail' -- the nine gigs is actually held aside for root's exclusive use. [18:14] sarnold: Ah.. Give me a minute to remove some stuff then. [18:14] the 5% reserved, yadda yadda yadda [18:14] Nishok: tune2fs -m can change the percentage. [18:14] Nishok: but don't change it too much, maybe 4 percent, just to get you back up and running, and then clear out space... [18:14] (without free space, the filesystem will fragment itself to death quickly) [18:15] sarnold: I already cleared 4.7GB (says Avail) and FTP is still going, so I am fine, no need to change % ^^ [18:15] sarnold: Should I just type "apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client" again? [18:16] Nishok: yeah [18:16] sarnold: ugh, error because it is already partially installed.

I cannot seem to figure out the pattern behind it and wanted to know if someone out there has had the same experince [19:37] adam_g_: no its a dependency checker thing [19:38] zul, so its dependency on python-setuptools-git is valid? [19:38] yeah [19:38] hmm [19:38] bummer === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [20:19] I gotta figure out how to get apt-cacher-ng to pick the fastest mirror, it seems it is currently by default just using us.archive.ubuntu.com any idears ? [20:26] Enich: Does apt-cacher-ng even make any mirror selection by itself? Doesn't it just go to whatever your local sources.list is pointing it to? [20:29] Question: I got a problem after apt-get upgrade on Ubuntu 12.04 with raid1+encryption+lvm. After reboot the LVM-passphrase is always wrong! Anyone know this issue? [20:35] vlad_starkov: did you follow the recommendation and backup the LUKS header? [20:35] Evening [20:36] utlemming: NO! [20:36] utlemming: I just started reading about LUKS header...

[20:37] andol, Im not sure.. it seems like it has mirrors in the etc directory .. [20:37] vlad_starkov: I might suggest going to the #ubuntu-devel channel for this question. Off the bat, it sounds like the header may have been corrupted/damaged. [20:37] it for some reason picks us mirrors despight im en europe [20:37] utlemming: thnaks [20:37] Huh.. you cant to RAID5/6 with Btrfs? [20:38] utlemming: But I read that if I use dm-crypt there is no such a thing like header [20:38] utlemming: how can I know what I use? [20:39] I set up an ircd-irc2 server but it takes a lot of time to establish connection, is there a way to make this faster? [20:39] vlad_starkov: "cryptsetup isLuks " [20:39] Enich: From what I recall that mirror list is mostly to merge the cache files from different mirrors containing the same files. [20:39] madprops: probably disable identd lookups [20:40] utlemming: If it is raid I should do in initramfs "cryptsetup isLuks /dev/md1" ? [20:40] Enich: No matter if apt-cacher-ng can do magic or not, you can definetly point it to a specific mirror using your sources.list entry, so why don't you just pick a good local mirror for now? [20:42] utlemming: this command returns nothing [20:42] vlad_starkov: is the raid assembled? i.e. does /dev/md1 exist? [20:43] utlemming: yes [20:43] utlemming: and cat /proc/mdstat returns healthy result [20:44] vlad_starkov: I would go over #ubuntu-devel....you'll find the encryption experts hanging out there. [20:44] Damn, this is a bit of a downer, weird taht btrfs doesnt support anything other than RAID1/10 [20:46] utlemming: Asked a question there. But there is silence for the moment... [20:46] sarnold, should I be using /ircd-hybrid/ ? [20:46] vlad_starkov: what does "sudo blkid" show? [20:48] madprops: I'm not sure. On the one hand, taking a distro-provided ircd means you get the community to help support it; on the other hand, if you're running a public network, being 'hooked in' with the upstream ircd developers would probably be useful, whether that's oftc-hybrid or plain hybrid or whatever.. [20:48] andol, The issue is that the deployment is done automatically so i would have to do it via a kickstart file [20:50] Enich: I'm afraid I really don't see the problem. Nevertheless, I'm off to bed now. [20:50] *poof' [20:53] utlemming: oooops..... blkid: TYPE="CRYPTO_LUKS" [20:57] vlad_starkov: so it is a luks...I would backup the header now. [20:57] utlemming: the server is on the remote side [20:57] vlad_starkov: i.e. cryptupsetup luksHeaderBackup /dev/md1 header.img [20:58] utlemming: so it will copy it to the RAM? [20:58] vlad_starkov: yeah, it won't hurt....just don't reboot until you get into the box [20:59] What would be the tar command to put /dir1 /dir2 /dir3 in a .tar.gz called backup_YYYYMMDD? [21:00] sw: where are you stuck? [21:03] utlemming: ok that command returned nothing. ls -al shows header.img with 2097152 bytes [21:04] vlad_starkov: try "crpytsetup luksOpen /dev/md1 volume" [21:06] So, heres a query since I cant use btrfs. Planning on building a NAS/general purpose server for a home user. What sort of FS would you recomend? [21:06] utlemming: I'm supposing to launch /lib/cryptsetup/askpass 'unlocking' | /sbin/cryptsetup -T 1 luksOpen /dev/md1 md1_crypt --key-file=- [21:06] I know you can just use raid5 with MDADM, but thats very slow doing building/syncing [21:07] So I.. really dont know. [21:11] anyone use atftpd in ubuntu server? [21:12] vlad_starkov: just a hunch, but does /lib/crytsetup/askpass even exist? [21:12] and as a daemon, not via inetd, etc? [21:15] utlemming: I'm rebooting.... will try to enter upper i instead of lover L [21:15] lower [21:16] utlemming: It works!!! I feel myself like an idiot spent 1.5 hours dealing with it [21:19] utlemming: Thank you! As you recommended me I asked people in #ubuntu-devel in addition to #ubuntu-server. Your advices were almost the same as slangasek's from #ubuntu-devel. Thank you guys so much! [21:20] vlad_starkov: no problem...just back up your headers...and do a lvm backup as well. It never hurts to have a backup of those in case things go south on you. [21:24] utlemming: what would be the cheatsheet for backup luks and lvm headers? "cryptupsetup luksHeaderBackup /dev/md1 --header-backup-file header.img" for luks. And what will be for LVM? [21:25] vlad_starkov: its been a while since I've done that....I have not used LVM in a good while. :( [21:26] utlemming: not a problem. I'll ask in #ubuntu-devel. Anyways now I know that there is LVM headers exist and that I have to backup them :-) [21:27] utlemming: as far I go with Ubuntu as far I get new knowledge [21:28] utlemming: thanks again! God save IRC :-) [21:33] * vlad_starkov backup backup backup...... and backup! [21:35] vlad_starkov: try looking at the vgcfgbackup command [21:35] utlemming: Thanks [21:51] sarnold, pretty much every google result regarding ircd refers to ircd-hybrid [21:51] I'm trying to enable ssl on ircd-irc2 [21:53] madprops: e.g. http://www.oftc.net/CodingProjects/ [23:03] I am so stupid... [23:03] I guess no one is going to debate that... ummm [23:04] im logged in as root through ssh (putty) and running some commands but having no response, any ideas? [23:04] Will [23:04] Hey [23:04] we are prob doing the same thing [23:04] with vi /etc/network/interfaces [23:04] and not knowing what to put in there [23:05] im trying to do touch /etc/network/interfaces [23:05] and it wont do anything [23:05] nor repond with an error etc [23:05] my apt-get won't even work [23:05] so your better than I [23:05] ah mine worked there, lol [23:05] LOL [23:05] you running in a virtual machine? [23:06] like virtualbox? [23:06] No new US Box [23:06] only thing I touched was interface [23:06] nothing works now [23:06] http://www.gizmojunkee.com/2012/12/install-ubuntu-minimal-server-webmin/ [23:06] i went through that guide mate if u want to follow it [23:07] so I know that I have the address, netmask, network, broadcast, gateway or dns-nameserver wrong [23:07] Awesome.. I will see it that helps [23:07] this is doing my head in, even ls command isnt repsonding [23:08] we just don't know the rules... [23:08] and it isn't obvious to us [23:08] huh? [23:08] Were you here yesterday? Will [23:08] Will: what do you mean, "ls command isn't responding'? [23:09] yeh [23:09] I remember [23:09] Will: can you pastebin what you've got on screen? [23:09] doesn't ls list the files in the current directory through bash/putty [23:10] take care Will .. I will read that tutorial and be back... [23:11] sarnold: http://pastebin.com/gE6AFsyv [23:13] Will: your current working directory (/root in this case) has only "dotfiles" in it; ls doesn't show _all_ files by default. try ls -la to see the dotfiles and extended information on those files [23:13] Will: cp and touch and similar commands will only print output if there are problems [23:13] they worked fine, so no output. [23:14] ahh right [23:14] nice... so your good [23:16] but when im doing touch /etc/network/interfaces meant to open that up? [23:16] for editing? [23:16] oh wait no [23:16] it creates the directory doesnt it [23:16] if its not there [23:16] touch is used to create files [23:16] Will: no; touch only updates the timestamp on a file -- or creates the file, if it does not yet exist. [23:17] yeh, i remember now, cheers [23:17] been a while since bash ^^ [23:17] I haven't used touch yet... and wouldn't even know why I would .. [23:18] Thanks Will that link might be what I am stuck on.. if it shows what I should type for gateway [23:23] sarnold: http://pastebin.com/6tLGDELi [23:24] Will: > is an HTML entity that should expand to > [23:24] Will: you might want to find a better guide to learn from :) [23:24] ahh haha, guy must of not scripted his blog correctly there then [23:24] cheers for the translation [23:25] a ton of blogs and the like very completely destroy things that you should copy-and-paste. [23:25] my favorite is the idiot websites that turn " into smartquotes. I think that's a wordpressism. [23:25] yeah i never bother with the copy paste just for that factor [23:25] it's nearly invisible to the naked eye why things break... [23:26] Will: there's other good reasons to not copy-and-paste from websites: http://thejh.net/misc/website-terminal-copy-paste [23:26] "plagiarism" [23:26] genii: lol [23:49] Hey.. Uh, can anyone give me some advice on a problem so I can finally go to sleep :P [23:50] Trying to creatre a 5x disk RAID5 array in Ubuntu 12 server, but for some baffling reason it creates a 4disk array, then tries to build the 5th as a "recovery" [23:50] fsck it, fsck it all night long [23:51] with the resync going to take.. well, days and days.. and days.. [23:51] Right now I've got 5 partitions (all the same size) across 5 disks as /dev/sd?6. So I run mdadm /dev/md3 --create --raid-level=5 --raid-devices=5 /dev/sd[abcde]6 [23:52] The only noteworthy thing in syslog is this "[ 4470.184731] md/raid:md3: raid level 5 active with 4 out of 5 devices, algorithm 2 [23:52] " [23:52] Any ideas? [23:54] Slyboots: the first bits of googling I find suggest mdadm ... --level=5 not --raid-level=5. Can you check that parameter in the manpage? [23:54] sarnold, Sorry. I have been using --level5 [23:54] # mdadm --create /dev/md3 --level=5 --raid-devices=5 /dev/sd[abcde]6 [23:54] Slyboots: I see a result about --spare-devices=N -- can you try adding --spare-devices=0 and see if that forces the behavior your want? [23:54] Slyboots: drat :) [23:55] Adding --spare-devices=0 does not seem to alter the behavior [23:56] Slyboots: sorry, that was my best idea.. [23:56] I mean, at this rate its going to take over 11 days just to build the array :P [23:57] The problem does seem to be its treating disk 5 as a spare ( 5 8 70 4 spare rebuilding /dev/sde6) [23:58] New Ubuntu Server Install; ifconfig results; addr:192.168.1.131,, Bcast:192.168.0.255,, Mask:255.255.255.0,, Loopback addr:127.0.0.1,, Mask:255.0.0.0 -- and I edited interfaces iface eth0 inet static, address 192.168.0.121,, netmask 255.255.255.0,, network:192.168.0.255,,broadcast:192.168.0.255,,gateway:192.168.1.1,,dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 [23:58] am I doing something wrong that is obvious [23:58] Maybe Raid5 doesnt like working on 5 disks? [23:59] EDocToor: your gateway is in 192.168.1.xxx but your network is 192.168.0.xxx -- one of those is probably wrong. [23:59] EDocToor: you _can_ have a gateway address that's not in your "local network", but it takes more work, so it isn't very common. [23:59] your addr and Bcasta are also on different subnets.. [23:59] I seriously doubt thats correct
