[12:15] <harishnavnit> i need help in working with lxc's
[12:15] <harishnavnit> https://dev.launchpad.net/Running/LXC
[12:16] <harishnavnit> this is what i'm referring to
[12:37] <harishnavnit> here's another question that I had , in the following command
[12:37] <harishnavnit> $ ./utilities/launchpad-database-setup $USER
[12:37] <harishnavnit> what is the $USER used for ?
[12:38] <harishnavnit> is it my username ? or do I type in as it is , i.e $USER
[12:54] <harishnavnit> is it necessary to run the rocketfuel setup inside an LXC ? that is something that I didn't
[12:54] <harishnavnit> now i get an error when  i run "make schema"
[13:33] <cjwatson> harishnavnit: It's an environment variable; you can type it as it is, or substitute your username
[13:34] <cjwatson> harishnavnit: I *specifically* warned you that you must run rocketfuel-setup inside a container or it will modify your host system in ways you probably don't want.  Now you probably have to read the script and figure out how to undo it.
[14:07] <harishnavnit> wouldn't it work if i simply removed all the lp directories
[14:07] <harishnavnit> ?
[14:10] <cjwatson> harishnavnit: No, it makes various changes under /etc/, fiddles about with your Apache configuration, may wipe any PostgreSQL databases you may have had ...
[14:11] <harishnavnit> thankfully i didn't have any PostgreSQL databases
[14:11] <cjwatson> But the other changes are still relevant
[14:11] <cjwatson> Do this in a container.  Seriously.  I warned you the first time ...
[14:11] <harishnavnit> so i'll now have to go through the entire shell script to remove it ?
[14:11] <harishnavnit> :(
[14:12] <cjwatson> Probably.
[14:12] <cjwatson> 22:04 <cjwatson> Given that you've got the branch already, you should be able to run utilities/rocketfuel-setup (INSIDE A CONTAINER as it will do interesting things to your system)
[14:13] <cjwatson> I'm not sure how that could have been much clearer
[14:13] <harishnavnit> yea , that was clear alright . I'd run the rocketfuel setup days earlier
[14:13] <harishnavnit> after I did the formalities with bzr
[14:13] <cjwatson> Ah
[14:14] <harishnavnit> i installed lxc and i'm unable to login aswell
[14:14] <harishnavnit> what's wrong ?
[14:15] <cjwatson> You might want to be more specific about exactly how it goes wrong
[14:16] <harishnavnit> i'm sorry , what happens is that , I was given the default user and password as 'ubuntu'
[14:16] <harishnavnit> but when i enter the details , it shows incorrect password
[14:17] <cjwatson> That sounds like you forgot to use -b $USER when creating the container
[14:18] <cjwatson> Or else the message was buggy
[14:18] <cjwatson> Try logging in with your normal username and password
[14:18] <harishnavnit> how do i close a running container ?
[14:18] <cjwatson> sudo lxc-stop -n lpdev
[14:19] <cjwatson> Although why?
[14:19] <cjwatson> You don't need to stop it just to try logging in with a different user
[14:19] <harishnavnit> bcoz , i couldn't get out of the lpdev container login prompt
[14:19] <harishnavnit> so closed the terminal
[14:19] <cjwatson> Ctrl-a q   perhaps
[14:19] <harishnavnit> yea ,i'll try
[14:21] <harishnavnit> well it's taking a long while to stop the running lxc lpdev
[14:22] <cjwatson> You can force it with   sudo lxc-stop -k -n lpdev
[14:22] <cjwatson> I suggest having a look through the documentation before asking - a lot of stuff is answered there
[14:22] <cjwatson> (e.g. man lxc-stop)
[14:23] <harishnavnit> okay
[14:24] <harishnavnit> okay , leaving for now , i'll get back later
[14:25] <harishnavnit> thanks a lot
[14:25] <cjwatson> np
[14:43]  * cjwatson pushes up his work from the plane
[14:45] <cjwatson> I had a reasonably productive flight :)
[18:31] <lifeless> cjwatson: all hail DVCS ?
[19:26] <cjwatson> lifeless: Indeed!
