=== kees_ is now known as kees [00:10] sarnold: hash -r [00:12] anepanaliptos: awesome, much better, thank you :D [00:12] still the guide doesnt work, but that's a rtfm fix [00:12] what's wrong now? [00:12] (even though it did work before, not sure what changed..) [00:12] i did the make install [00:12] i run ffmpeg [00:13] and it tells me ffmpeg is not installed and i can pull it from the repos [00:14] anepanaliptos: is it in ~/bin or ~/ffmpeg_build/ somewhere? [00:14] hang on im recompiling (i did make -j9 so dont worry it wont be long) [00:14] ok done [00:14] especially fast if you changed nothing, hehe :) [00:14] yes it is. [00:15] the exe is in the root dir [00:15] well, "root" ~/ffmpeg_build/ffmpeg [00:15] root@tesla:~/ffmpeg_sources/ffmpeg# ./ffmpeg [00:15] was totally valid and ran ffmpeg [00:15] does anything have to do with the fact i am doing this as root and not sudo -s ? [00:16] i dont see why. [00:16] rebooting.. maybe.... [00:16] (im doing that now..) [00:17] anepanaliptos: I thnk the make install step should copy it somewhere into the prefix's children (~/ffmpeg_build/) [00:20] wtf [00:20] it created the bin folder in my ~ dir [00:20] and in there are the binaries (or symlinks to em) [00:20] somewhere.. these instructions have gotten foobared [00:21] anepanaliptos: maybe that means make install uses the --bindir parameter? [00:22] anepanaliptos: you're right that sudo -s vs logging in as root, or doing the compile as a user and then sudo make install, could all fiddle with the $HOME variable.. [00:22] no [00:22] someone broke the document/howto [00:23] i went back using the wiki history thing [00:23] and im gonna try the instructioned that looked like the page from when it worked [00:23] ah! :) [00:23] source ~/.profile [00:24] that line is missing from the 'current' one [00:24] stil ldoesnt work [00:24] ill rtfm and let yo uknow [00:24] i got this. :) [00:43] nice [00:43] hello [00:45] how to enable vhost's \ site-availables/* ? is not working for me [00:47] i00nsu: did you try the a2ensite command as described here? https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/httpd.html [00:47] sarnold: yes. and service apache2 reload [00:48] the DocumentRoot is at /home/user/Public_html/ [00:48] i00nsu: did you get any error messages when you ran them? did you get errors in the logs? [00:48] and Directory too [00:49] is working but points to /var/www/ instead to /home/user/Public_html :o [00:52] sarnold: no errors [00:53] after a power outage my network stopped working, yesterday someone recommended I should remove some udev stuff [00:53] to make it work, what can I do to fix this problem? [00:55] Nicolas_Leonidas: in my experience, loss of network connectivity after powerfail often means devices didn't come up in the correct order -- often solved by rebooting a modem or other upstream link, followed by rebooting a router, then perhaps a switch, and then the device that doesn't have network access... [00:56] sarnold: that's a good point, but outage happened 3 days ago or so, and I've restarted everything many times [00:57] Nicolas_Leonidas: oh :/ [00:57] the router works, all other computers have connectivity [00:57] dmseg says "eth0: link is not ready" [00:57] Nicolas_Leonidas: plug/unplug the wire from the NIC and the switch? [00:57] try other ports on the switch? [00:58] sarnold: tried that too, when I connect the cable to another computer the other computer works [00:58] plug it into a different switch? or plug it into an auto-sensing NIC somewhere else? [00:58] Nicolas_Leonidas: aha, so not that port on the switch then.. [00:58] today I bought a new NIC, same problem, now I'm almost convinced it's a software issue with ubuntu [00:59] just found something interesting on syslog [01:00] DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 [01:00] port 67 interval 18 [01:01] sarnold: I restart the server and is working. [01:01] Nicolas_Leonidas: did you find any 'link becomes ready' messages for your NIC? [01:01] i00nsu: hunh. odd. [01:02] :) [01:03] sarnold: in where? [01:03] Nicolas_Leonidas: dmesg .. [01:03] Nicolas_Leonidas: does 'ip link' show you your NIC? [01:04] no [01:04] should I reset the router to factory settings? [01:05] Nicolas_Leonidas: probably not. _maybe_ the router has some MAC firewall rules or something, but that seems a stretch [01:05] Nicolas_Leonidas: are there errors in the router's logs? [01:05] gia sou re ellhna. [01:06] I just saw the dhcp log on router for the first time let me see if there is anyting in there [01:16] reset the router to factory settings [01:16] that didn't help either [01:16] "booting the system without full network configuration" [01:32] roaksoax, jamespage: once that openstack tempating stuff lands, this will help sync the templates /w https://code.launchpad.net/~gandelman-a/charm-helpers/sync_include_hints/+merge/174320 and any other non-py assets from charm-helpers [01:33] currently it does not, and will delete those that exist in a local charm during sync === dir is now known as guampa === acrocity_ is now known as acrocity === holymacaroons is now known as holymac [07:08] Daviey: around? === smb` is now known as smb [09:07] Chocobo, havana-updates for cloud archive should contain those two missing packages in the next ~1hr or so [10:50] jamespage, zul , having this problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5867778/ [10:50] seems that isn't finding python-setuptools although it's added as build-depends? [10:56] jamespage, in case of python-cliff, do you think it makes sense to request a sync, not a merge? the only difference i see, apart from new things, is the pydist-overrides [10:58] yolanda: can you pastebin full log? [11:02] xnox, i found that the problem is dh $@ --with python2,sphinxdoc --buildsystem=python_distutils [11:03] if i set the buildsystem to python_distutils it fails [11:03] if i remove that it works [11:03] but it's a merge from debian, and their rules file uses it [11:05] yolanda: do you have a link to dsc? or a full build-log for me to look what's happening? [11:05] xnox, let me reproduce again and show the log [11:10] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5867812/ === tjaalton_ is now known as tjaalton [11:18] xnox ^ [11:20] yolanda: you are building locally, not in sbuild / pbuilder? i thought a full log with how all deps are getting installed as well. [11:20] xnox, it just fails on debuild [11:20] i can't arrive to sbuild step [11:20] yolanda: can you push a branch with python-cliff-1.4-1ubuntu1 somewhere? [11:20] ok [11:20] yolanda: or tar it up =) and scp to like people.canonical.com =) [11:23] xnox: https://code.launchpad.net/~yolanda.robla/+junk/python_cliff_1.4-1ubuntu1 [11:25] yolanda: cool, let me look. [11:27] yolanda: so it succeeds for me fine here. Do you have python-setuptools installed locally? [11:27] as it's needed to build the source package. [11:27] yolanda: or you can use [11:27] $ debuild -S -sa -nc [11:27] which will build the source package without running the "clean" step. [11:27] does that work? [11:28] Installed: 0.6.37-1ubuntu1 [11:28] i'll remove and install again [11:29] i'm not sure if requesting a sync instead of a merge, the only significant delta is the pydist-override [11:33] yolanda: you will not be able to sync the package as something is very odd: [11:33] xnox@sochi:/tmp$ md5sum ubuntu/*orig* debian/*orig* [11:33] ca4b80452f73b58a01e18f8ebcfb4504 ubuntu/python-cliff_1.4.orig.tar.gz [11:33] 3d5017c362d9b34eddf88aa43099411e debian/python-cliff_1.4.orig.tar.gz [11:33] xnox@sochi:/tmp$ du -a ubuntu/*orig* debian/*orig* [11:33] 124 ubuntu/python-cliff_1.4.orig.tar.gz [11:33] 36 debian/python-cliff_1.4.orig.tar.gz [11:33] yolanda: debian original tarball is so much smaller and has different checksum, so launchpad will reject the sync. How come they are so different is a mystery though. [11:34] i'll send the debdiffs for the merge then [11:34] so you could merge the packaging, but continue to use ubuntu's tarball for ubuntu uploads. [11:34] (or note that in sponsorship / debdiff request) [11:35] $ diff -r -U 4 debian/cliff-1.4/ ubuntu/cliff-1.4/ [11:35] Only in ubuntu/cliff-1.4/: cliff.egg-info [11:35] Only in ubuntu/cliff-1.4/demoapp: build [11:35] Only in ubuntu/cliff-1.4/docs: build [11:35] Only in ubuntu/cliff-1.4/: PKG-INFO [11:35] Only in ubuntu/cliff-1.4/: setup.cfg [11:36] so ubuntu tarball is not "clean" and has build artifacts in it [11:37] debdiff is complaining for that also [11:46] Hi all I'm trying to export a nfs share with no_root_squash option but when I mount it on my client and write a file with root this file is squashed to nobody:nogroup. [11:47] nfsv4? [11:47] Is this a bug ? [11:47] nfs4 [11:47] try 3 [11:47] ok] [11:47] nfsv4 is a cruel mistress. [11:48] but In nfs4 no_root_squash doesn't work ? [11:48] I haven't tested, but see if it works for you with 3 first [11:48] 4 requires other stuff configured like user mapping [11:52] ty mardraum in vers3 it's all ok [11:56] cool :D v4 changed a lot, so if you want to try implement it there, I think you'll need to do a bit of reading :D [11:57] it's also a relatively immature implementation compared to v3 === asac` is now known as asac [12:15] i was configuring a samba server and shared some directories, but when i go to \\server.name it says i have no permissions and i should access to the shared directory directly [12:15] how to configure samba for list the shared directories? === raijin is now known as raininja === andreas__ is now known as ahasenack === cmagina-away is now known as cmagina [13:22] jamespage: thanks, I just used pinned the raring release and use those.

[17:24] http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/96/tl0i.jpg [17:27] kearneykid, likely you need to use an older ubuntu, as the old hp server is probably way too old [17:27] try 10.04 on it [17:28] will do, thanks [17:28] heh, older, newer ubuntu, that only supports newer cpu's [17:29] where the definition of newer cpu, is old, but not that old [17:29] we did (or soon will) lose support for 386 chips.. [17:29] 386, that was done long ago [17:29] 486 was lost and 586 also [17:29] patdk-wk: you might be thinking of the optimized compiles.. [17:30] maybe, but I thought 12.04 needed p4 or better [17:30] egadget anyway says it was 3.8.. :) http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/15/linux-to-drop-i386-support-in-the-3-8-kernel/ [17:30] by any chance do you know much about overclocking haswell? [17:32] sarnold that is linux though, I know ubuntu dropped it sooner [17:33] ya, ubuntu 10.10 drops pre i686 support [17:33] patdk-wk: no kidding :) hehe [17:33] patdk-wk: thanks :) [17:33] and 12.04 dropped non-pae supported cpu's [17:34] I used to know where that was offically stated, having a hell of a time locating it [17:35] https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/i386/hardware-supported.html [17:35] "However, Ubuntu precise will not run on i586 or earlier processors. Despite the architecture name "i386"" [17:35] "Support for i586 and lower processors, as well as for i686 processors without the cmov instruction, was dropped in Ubuntu 10.10.

You are all over these "Intertubes" [18:32] =) [18:32] m0nk3yjoe: I try :) [18:36] can someone confirm for me that mysql server for precise does not have a dependency on libaio1 but quantal does? [18:47] oh, precise filed this as won't fix.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.5/+bug/999766 [18:47] Launchpad bug 999766 in mysql-5.5 "MySQL 5.5 not compiled with native AIO" [Medium,Fix released] [18:47] :( [18:48] hello, i'm looking for a ubuntu server administration blog/webpage having tutorials,guides,examples etc...any suggestions? [18:49] StathisA: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/ [18:51] that was a really silly decision, probably they didn't know innodb would fallback to not using libaio1 if it was simply not found [18:52] sarnold: thanks [18:53] Guess not.. =( [18:53] m0nk3yjoe: it might be better to ask the more specific question anyway.. [18:53] I'm trying to figure out the package pdns-backend-mysql [18:53] "well" means different things to different people, but a concrete question can either be answered or not :) hehe [19:22] Hi all, I have a headless server and want to run a gui program which I don't need to access the gui for. What is the best way to do this? [19:23] I am not trying to control a gui program remotely (like vnc), I just want it to run even though there is no display [19:27] how to check total RES usage by a process with multiple threads? [19:29] smw_: investigate xvfb [19:29] sarnold, thanks [19:40] sarnold, works perfectly, thanks :-) [19:41] smw_: woot :) [19:43] sarnold, I came in here and got a great answer. In #linux I got a lecture on not running X on a server :-\ [19:44] I was also told to rewrite the program not to need X and one person ask me "why do you even think that is possible" [19:46] smw_: sheesh :) I find if you don't know the answer, it's fair to hazard a clearly-labeled guess, but arguing is another approach entirely :) [20:11] smw_, in fairness, it _does_ imply that the program is at least mildly silly [20:11] even on windows, a service needs special checkboxes enabled in order to interact with the desktop [20:12] smw_, what's the program if you don't mind my asking? [20:36] cwillu_at_work, it is a webbrowser. We already have it automated with extensions/rpc, but we need it running full time on a server [20:38] cwillu_at_work, and an indication that I am doing something abnormal is not a reason to argue about whether or not servers should run browsers/x11 programs [20:40] sure [20:40] I'm just asking [20:40] cwillu_at_work, yeah, we have a lot of work already put into automating some tasks through the browser, but running it on a server seems better than a desktop :-) === cmagina is now known as cmagina-away [22:28] Hey. I run a server with a fairly good CPU and 32GB RAM (only ~6GB used on average). Any idea if I could run anything? Like a BOINC project that requires not all of CPU but more RAM? I'm paying for this machine anyway [22:30] BOINC is almost all CPU intensive...you can specify the number of CPU it uses and you can also specify nice 19 ./bonic so it has the lowest priority on those CPU when things are running. [22:32] thesheff17: thanks! Do you think this will interfere with a standard apache2 setup if i allocate 6 of 8 cpu cores? [22:33] Ricky27: it shouldn't, see also ionice to ensure your apache has higher priority IO requests... [22:33] hehe yea what sarnold said [22:33] sarnold & thesheff17 thank you! === klaas_ is now known as klaas === vidplace7_ is now known as vidplace7 [23:19] hey guys, my /boot is full heh. cant run sudo apt-get autoremove it complains about it being full to run the operation, how can I get rid of some old kernels manually the right way? [23:20] nOStahl: you can rm old kernel and initrds from /boot by hand until you've freed enough space to continue with the tools [23:21] ah ok [23:21] nOStahl: just be sure to leave the kernel and initrd for the kernel version you're currently running, the newest, and make sure to leave at least two, in case one doesn't work well. :) [23:22] aye [23:22] ty its going now [23:22] woot [23:22] why would it have filled up the boot partition on its own? heh [23:23] shouldnt apt-upgrade be managing that on its own [23:23] once upon a time, old kernels were never automatically removed... I think that there is some kind of automatic limiting in place now, but I've never looked into it deeply enough to understand. :/ [23:29] hmm some thing is broken [23:32] nOStahl: I thought that went easily, there's sometimes more to fixing the problem.. [23:35] its giving broken pipe when I try to sudo apt-get -f install [23:35] dependancy issues [23:35] nOStahl: can you pastebin the errors? [23:37] there's some flag set somewhere telling it there's no space left on the device [23:42] cant pastebin from this terminal access for some reason [23:43] but its got broken dependancies [23:43] the following packages have unmet dependancies: linux-headers-server : depends : linux-headers-3.2.0-48-generic but it is not going to be installed [23:44] linux-image-server : depends linux-image-3.2.0-48-generic but it is not going to be installed [23:44] nOStahl: the pastebinit package can paste to a long list of pastebins, it might be handy if you're trying to fight your way through an obnoxious firewall [23:44] yet if I try sudo apt-get -f install it runs through like its working but then broken pipes [23:45] nOStahl: you can apt-get purge linux-headers-server linux-image-server -- then fix all the other errors -- then re-install them, to make sure you get updates [23:47] ok [23:47] will try purge [23:52] nope no luck [23:52] its stuck on those packages...
