dedihey- im having trouble logging in as root in my terminal! anyhelp?16:18
scottrigbyo i didn't know you can't su root by default in ubuntu :p https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo16:21
KyleYankanscottrigby: sudo -i16:22
KyleYankanShould work.16:22
scottrigbyKyleYankan: so the thing dedi wants to do is create mysql databases16:22
KyleYankancreate them? Can't he just log in via mysql?16:23
KyleYankanYou don't need sudo for that, do you?16:23
dediERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'xyz'16:23
scottrigbyKyleYankan: that's what threw me. He can login to mysql16:23
dedithis is what i get when i log into mysql16:24
scottrigby^ and try to create a DB16:24
KyleYankanYou're not putting a username in :-P16:24
KyleYankanDid you set a MySQL Username/password?16:24
TheLordOfTimebetter question: do you have a username/password for it?  Unless you soet it up in which case root...16:41
TheLordOfTimededi:  ^16:41
TheLordOfTimededi:  read up, KyleYankan makes a good point :)16:42
TheLordOfTimeKyleYankan:  if he has no login for mysql though it won't help16:42
TheLordOfTime(needs to have a login, whether it's root or something else)16:42
KyleYankanI'm talking to him via pm TheLordOfTime16:42
TheLordOfTimeKyleYankan:  ah okay :016:42
TheLordOfTime:)16:42
TheLordOfTimeKyleYankan:  kinda helps to know it went to PM :P16:42
* TheLordOfTime goes back to poking nginx and fixing a Critical priority bug on it16:43
KyleYankanSorry :-)16:43
KyleYankanDidn't mean to sound rude/terse16:43
TheLordOfTimeno problem :)16:43
* TheLordOfTime yawns16:43
TheLordOfTime... i need coffee16:43
KyleYankan2 please.16:43
dediyeah, still pretty much back to the same part, i remember setting up a user name and password during installing lamp, but the terminal doesn't seem to recognize16:44
dedii think i need to reset a username/password16:44
TheLordOfTimededi:  did you specify it with the mysql command?16:45
TheLordOfTimebecause if it's unspecified it might not pass a username to the connection string16:45
* TheLordOfTime yawns... okay, seriously, coffee time16:45
dedifacepalm16:47
dedigot it now16:47
dedithanks16:47
scottrigbyyay ^_^16:47
scottrigbyKyleYankan++16:47

scottrigbydedi++16:47
dedipluses for everyone16:47
TheLordOfTimeuniverse++16:47
TheLordOfTimeerm...16:47
TheLordOfTimeuniverse-- actually16:47
TheLordOfTimebecause reasons16:48
KyleYankannice, nice.16:48
KyleYankanIn the begining the universe was created.16:48
scottrigbyyeah it was `mysql -u root -p` and he could get in as root and make a db. Now dedi should be able to grant his user permissions to do so right?16:48
KyleYankanYeah16:48
scottrigbyTheLordOfTime: haha indeed. I wouldn't blame universe for fuckedupness on this planet, but … maybe who knows16:49
KyleYankanhttp://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql_intro.html16:49
KyleYankandedi ^16:49
dedi^^16:49
TheLordOfTimescottrigby:  mhm16:50
TheLordOfTimeonce he gets in as root user he can create other users with DB-specific permissions16:50
TheLordOfTimebut yeah `-u USER` is a wonderfully useful argument that is kinda needed :P16:50
scottrigbyright16:51
scottrigbyTheLordOfTime: since it's his laptop, no harm in adding his user `dedi` to an admin group right?16:51
scottrigbyso he doesn't have to log into mysql as root every time?16:52
TheLordOfTimescottrigby:  it's not internet facing, right?  That is to say, his laptop's mysql and http ports are locked to the outside, right?17:07
TheLordOfTimescottrigby:  as long as you're talking about creating a MySQL user for him ithere's no harm17:08
TheLordOfTimehis laptop user should laready be admin with sudo17:08
scottrigbyTheLordOfTime: it will not be internet facing no. but not sure the status of his ports. dedi just ran to get food but i can ask him to check ports when he gets back17:12
TheLordOfTimeyeah it wouldn't hurt to throw basic iptables rules on his system17:16
scottrigbyAnyone have a preferred method for creating virtual hosts in Lubuntu?17:34
scottrigbyother than adding to /etc/apache2/sites-available, enabling with sudo a2ensite, and restarting apache?17:37
TheLordOfTimescottrigby:  by not using apache in the first place :P19:52
TheLordOfTimescottrigby:  you have to do a2ensite and create a sites-available file though19:52
TheLordOfTimeand either restart or reload the configs19:52
TheLordOfTimebut...19:53
* TheLordOfTime shrugs19:53
jedijfnginx commercial19:53
TheLordOfTime:P20:02
TheLordOfTimei never said ANYTHING about nginx :P20:02
TheLordOfTimeBUT SINCE YOU MENTIONED IT, jedijf... :p20:02
TheLordOfTimenginx > apache for most use cases20:02
scottrigbyhehe20:03
