[04:00] <zul> hallyn_:  yeah ill do it this weekend ;)
[04:35] <stevie_man> I am trying to upgrade my 10.10 server but I need to install update-manager-core but when I do I get the following error: E: Unable to locate package update-manager-core
[04:35] <stevie_man> Infact I get that error for everything I try to install using ap-get
[05:03] <hallyn_> zul: cool - ttyl
[05:57] <hallyn_> all right i think i'm going to drop the linaro patches from qemu in the 1.7 merge.  They are mostly for omap3 support, would be surprised if too many people cared.
[05:57] <hallyn_> (and the patchset is a bit stale - i successfully refreshed the set, but am not feeling particularly confident about the result)
[06:29] <yogeshsarwate> Hi
[06:31] <cfhowlett> yogeshsarwate, ho
[06:49] <diverdude> is LTO-6 the most recent tape format for backup?
[07:35] <cju-pp> I am using EC2 to host an Ubuntu server. After a few hours of running, the SSH crashes. If I stop and start the server it works again, I can't figure out why this is happening, anyone have any ideas what logs I should look through to start figuring it out? I have googled online for the past few hours already.
[10:24] <t0lk_> I have php 5.2.10 on ubuntu 12.04 and no matter what I do I can't get it upgrade to any other version. Can anyone point me to the right guide?
[10:29] <bekks> t0lk_: How do you try to upgrade then?
[10:30] <t0lk_> i did udate/upgrade/full-upgrade
[10:31] <t0lk_> thyen add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5
[10:31] <t0lk_> and update/upgrade again
[10:31] <t0lk_> nothing changed
[10:32] <t0lk_> thanks bekks for help
[10:34] <bekks> Then you have to take a look at the PPA to see which versions it provides.
[10:34] <t0lk_> okay
[10:36] <t0lk_> bekks it says the repository has 5.5.6 https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/php5/+index?batch=75&memo=75&start=75
[11:11] <blueking> has there been some changes some packages?  got som errors in networking,  service networking restart didn't work with clean install,  And avahi was installed by default and putted in iproute 169.254.0.0   that I found in /etc/network/if_up, if_down    didn't do that in install of ubuntu server  some days ago ?   does ubuntu server install  some stuff  by default ?
[11:13] <blueking> avahi_autoipd
[11:13] <ikonia> "errors in networking" isn't very specific
[11:15] <blueking> service networking restart   -> Unknown job
[11:16] <ikonia> 1.) what version of ubuntu is it 2.) is it a physical or virtual host 3.) has that ever worked on this exact machine running your current ubuntu build ?
[11:17] <blueking> route -n  did show  169.254.0.0    in addition to IP's I set in /etc/network/interface   p2p1   dhcp and p3p1  set by static to 192.168.0.1
[11:18] <ikonia> not what I asked
[11:18] <blueking> ubuntu 13.10
[11:18] <blueking> server
[11:21] <ikonia> ok, you can't be bothered reading my questions clearly and answering them, I'm not helping
[11:22] <blueking> everything worked nice  until I installed webmin     then suddenly  net wasn't working  tryed to fix it for 10 hours, gave it up  made a clean install, net was ok  install isc-dhcp-server   set up dhcp's conf files    and shorewall    and net was down route -n shows 169.254.0.0 was back
[11:23] <blueking> avahi are installed by default ?
[11:23] <cfhowlett> !webmin
[11:23] <blueking> I know that
[11:23] <blueking> didn't install it on new system
[11:24] <blueking> ikonia: I didn't specify any virtual host,  physical host   mobo got two interfaces identified as p3p1 and p2p1
[11:25] <ikonia> blueking: not interested sorry, I asked 3 questions very clearly, you chose to ignore them, and ignore them a second time after I asked again.
[11:25] <blueking> ifconsorry have a baby 2 weeks that needs my attention
[11:26] <ikonia> a nonsense excuse, you've got time to sit here and type answers to questions I didn't ask, you've got time to type the answers to the questions I asked
[11:28] <blueking> ikonia: sorry that I've taken your time,  Will come back later when I can focus more to convo here  sorry, see you later
[12:16] <blueking> ok  think i found out where i failed'
[14:28] <Pryath> Anyone here know what to do to allow MultiViews (for apache2) if I've already set "AllowOverride All" and "Options Multiviews" in both apache2.conf and 000-default.conf (in sites-available) AND have "RewriteEngine On" in .htaccess?
[14:28] <Pryath> it still doesn't work
[14:44] <mikeshollen> Good morning. I am setting up a Linux server, and I am trying to install/configure the no-ip server for free dynamic DNS. I ran make install, and followed through with the questions being asked. I am under the impression it should be running now. How do I check to see if it is currently a running service?
[14:54] <ikonia> mikeshollen: checking if the daemon is running, checking if the IP is updated in dns
[14:54] <ikonia> mikeshollen: looking at any log files ?
[14:54] <ikonia> mikeshollen: looking at startup warnings/error messages when you started the application
[14:54] <mikeshollen> ikonia, thank you for your help. You'll have to bear with me, I'm a linux noob.
[14:54] <mikeshollen> ikonia, how do I check to see if the daemon is running?
[14:55] <ikonia> mikeshollen: ok - before going any further, I'd suggesting reading https://help.ubuntu.com - the server section and get a basic idea of how to work with the OS as a server
[14:55] <ikonia> mikeshollen: if you can get the basics of how to run the machine, you can then move forward easier
[14:56] <mikeshollen> ikonia, reading
[15:19] <mikeshollen> ikonia, so when I want to install the new pending security updates in my server, I enter 'sudo apt-get install unattended-upgrades' or is that to automate future updates?
[15:20] <ikonia> thats a package for a software package/configuration
[15:20] <ikonia> apt-get upgrade will bring your machine inline with the pending updates
[15:20] <mikeshollen> thank you
[15:21] <mikeshollen> ikonia, how frequently would you recommend running this for a server? do you think once per month is sufficient?
[15:22] <ikonia> mikeshollen: you'll need to work out the risks of what you are running, once a month can be fine, but so can once a week, once a day, etc etc, weigh up the pros/cons
[15:22] <mikeshollen> ikonia, there are no sensitive files on the server. My primary concern is uptime
[15:31] <mikeshollen> ikonia, if eth0 is my ethernet, what is my wireless? eth1 doesn't seem to work
[15:35] <ikonia> I don't believe the server install ships with wireless tools
[15:35] <ikonia> mikeshollen: why don't you just run the desktop version - which has everything needed/ready for a home computer
[15:35] <ikonia> mikeshollen: you'll find it a LOT easier to get working
[15:36] <mikeshollen> ikonia, i am running the home desktop version. I did not want a gui, but I tried installing server 64 and 32 bit on my nettop for hours and after grub the system wouldn't post at all
[15:36] <mikeshollen> ikonia, I eventually gave in, and installed 12.04 lts desktop in 64 bit
[15:36] <ikonia> ok - so then #ubuntu would be the right channel for you
[15:37] <mikeshollen> ikonia, they sent me here. I am trying to work in command line remotely
[15:37] <mikeshollen> ikonia, they told me the server type questions I was asking would be better suited for this channel
[15:37] <arstan> Greetings! I'm trying to customize 12.04 server, looking at http://razvangavril.com/linux-administration/custom-ubuntu-server-iso/ guide. I know I'm doing all correct, double checking with community wiki as well the steps... But for some reasons I get this error with python-maas-provisioningserver md5 checksum error...  screenshot - http://razvangavril.com/linux-administration/custom-ubuntu-server-iso/
[15:38] <arstan> anybody had this kind of issue? any clues here?
[15:38] <ikonia> mikeshollen: you're ubuntu ubuntu desktop edition - I suggest #ubuntu as this channel is for the server release, and you're not usin git
[15:39] <mikeshollen> ikonia, ok
[15:39] <ikonia> mikeshollen: they told you to come here as you said "I'm running a linux server", which suggests your running the server build
[15:43] <arstan> http://imgur.com/NAN8NBT anybody?
[15:54] <ikonia> arstan: error seems pretty clear
[15:55] <arstan> ikonia: yep, pretty clear. but using the same sources without adding any additional changes to  the seed file it works like charm
[15:56] <ikonia> doesn't change the fact that your current media is corrupted
[15:56] <arstan> ikonia: I don't make changes to that deb file in any way
[15:57] <ikonia> I didn't say you did
[15:57] <arstan> ikonia: Ok, may be you give me a hint here?
[15:57] <ikonia> arstan: your media is corrupted/damaged/can't be read
[15:57] <ikonia> fix / renew the media
[15:57] <arstan> ikonia: renew? hows that?
[15:58] <ikonia> "make a new copy of the media"
[15:58] <arstan> ikonia: done copying over and over few times already
[15:58] <ikonia> what is this media ? a cd - an apt repo, a usb stick ?
[15:59] <arstan> ikonia: iso image. from ubuntu cdimage
[15:59] <ikonia> and you've mounted the ISO image ?
[15:59] <ikonia> how are you using it
[15:59] <arstan> ikonia: I mount it locally and make copy using rsync
[16:00] <ikonia> so either a.) your source is a problem b.) your copy process is corrupting it
[16:00] <arstan> ikonia: must be process
[16:00] <arstan> sudo mkisofs -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -z -iso-level 4 -c isolinux/isolinux.cat -o ./ubuntu-12.04.3-custom-server-i386.iso custom-iso/
[16:01] <arstan> ikonia: amything suspicious for you here?
[16:01] <ikonia> so this isn't an ubuntu cd
[16:01] <ikonia> this is you making your own image
[16:01] <arstan> ikonia: thats right, sir
[16:02] <ikonia> then I'm out
[16:02] <arstan> ikonia: why?
[16:02] <ikonia> I don't know the process / changes you're making
[16:02] <ikonia> so I'm not validating something I don't know
[16:03] <arstan> ikonia: good point
[16:03] <arstan> ikonia: thanks anyways!
[16:03] <ikonia> sorry
[16:04] <arstan> ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization but this seems to be quite outdated
[16:05] <arstan> ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ seems theres not much help there
[16:05] <ikonia> I don't write those documents, nor do I use them so I don't know their current status, I find most community docs out of date / unmaintained / tested so rarely trust them
[16:05] <jrwren> mikeshollen: did you find wlan0 yet?
[16:06] <Pryath> I'm still having trouble configuring mod rewrite and multiviews for my ubuntu 13.10 server w/ apache. Would any of you be able to help me? I've set AllowOverride All in the vhost and apache2.conf. I've also specified Options MultiViews in those places AND the .htaccess file
[16:06] <arstan> Pryath: have you enabled mod_rewrite module?
[16:06] <Pryath> I believe I have, I've tried every solution I could find online
[16:07] <arstan> Pryath: can brief me about your problem?
[16:07] <Pryath> trying to go to http://<server>/search when search.php is located in /var/www/
[16:08] <Pryath> and I get a not found
[16:08] <Pryath> but if I do http://<server>/search.php it is found
[16:08] <Pryath> so multiviews is not working
[16:08] <Pryath> and rewrite is not working
[16:08] <Pryath> nor is specifying ErrorDocument
[16:08] <arstan> Pryath: so you just want to rewrite search.php to answer for domain.com/search?
[16:09] <Pryath> MultiViews is supposed to make it so <anything>.php can be resolved with http://<server>/<anything>
[16:09] <Pryath> but it is not working
[16:09] <Pryath> it isn't just search.php, it's every .php file
[16:11] <arstan> Pryath: Is there any other reason you need MultiViews and not just an .htaccess rewrite?
[16:12] <Pryath> the htaccess rewrite is for things like profile/<#>
[16:12] <arstan> Pryath: because you can easily rewrite to rewrite *.php files to domain.com/search?
[16:13] <Pryath> I'm trying to tackle the multiviews problem first
[16:13] <Pryath> which may end up fixing the other problem I'm trying to fix
[16:13] <arstan> Pryath: whats you are looking for with multiviews? what to achieve?
[16:13] <Pryath> [09m:18s] <Pryath> MultiViews is supposed to make it so <anything>.php can be resolved with http://<server>/<anything>
[16:14] <arstan> Pryath: thats mod_rewite with .htaccess. Read - http://www.ask.com/explore/apache-multiviews-3660
[16:15] <arstan> Pryath: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14182741/apache-clean-urls-with-multiviews-enabled
[16:15] <jrwren> yes, that is not what I understand multiviews to be.
[16:16] <Pryath> "The effect of MultiViews is as follows: if the server receives a request for /some/dir/foo, if /some/dir has MultiViews enabled, and /some/dir/foo does not exist, then the server reads the directory looking for files named foo.*, and effectively fakes up a type map which names all those files, assigning them the same media types and content-encodings it would have if the client had asked for one o
[16:16] <Pryath> f them by name. It then chooses the best match to the client's requirements."
[16:16] <Pryath> arstan: already seen that page
[16:16] <jrwren> indeed. I've just never seen multiviews used that way.
[16:17] <Pryath> how have you seen it used
[16:17] <jrwren> the canonical language example
[16:17] <Pryath> can you be more specific?
[16:18] <jrwren> content negotiation like this: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/content-negotiation.html
[16:18] <arstan> Pryath: define your problem clearly. IMHO
[16:18] <Pryath> that's where I got that text from
[16:18] <jrwren> i noticed :)
[16:18] <Pryath> that page
[16:19] <Pryath> arstan: I've defined it as clearly as I possibly can
[16:19] <jrwren> Pryath: try #apache? :)
[16:19] <Pryath> I've configured apache2.conf, my 000-default.conf, and .htaccess
[16:19] <Pryath> no one answered me there
[16:19] <Pryath> I'll try again
[16:19] <arstan> Pryath:  [09m:18s] <Pryath> MultiViews is supposed to make it so <anything>.php can be resolved with http://<server>/<anything>
[16:20] <Pryath> right
[16:20] <arstan> Pryath: thats a rewrite. simple as that
[16:20] <Pryath> it means you don't need to use a file extension
[16:21] <arstan> Pryath: yes, rewrite can help with that. Why is that not enough for you?
[16:22] <arstan> Pryath: from my googling the solution: RewriteRule ^/?page/(.*)$ page.php/$1 [L]
[16:23] <arstan> Pryath: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1337695/remove-php-extension-with-php
[16:24] <arstan> Pryath: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12231650/how-to-use-apache-mod-rewrite-to-remove-php-extension-while-preserving-the-get
[16:26] <jrwren> Pryath: for the record, Multiviews just plain works for me. I had no idea it was enabled, but all my .html files I can reference without the .html
[16:27] <Pryath> well for some reason every single thing I do with ubuntu turns into 3 hours of scowering for a solution
[16:28] <arstan> Pryath: thats totally not fair thing to say, bro
[16:31] <ikonia> Pryath: then I'd suggest using an OS that you are more comfortable with
[16:58] <Pryath> I figured out the problem
[16:58] <Pryath> apache2 default install for ubuntu server 13.10
[16:59] <Pryath> is missing something
[16:59] <Pryath> http://serverfault.com/questions/473788/the-mod-negotiation-seems-to-be-enabled-but-php-files-without-extensions-retur
[16:59] <Pryath> mod negotiation is not configured for .php
[16:59] <Pryath> but it is configured for .html
[16:59] <Pryath> what an annoying and obscure problem...
[17:21] <Vooloo> How can I get GLIBCXX_3.4.14 on Ubuntu 10.04?
[17:21] <Vooloo> or .15 rather
[18:09] <wiehan> hey, I have an ubuntu 12.04.3 server setup with plex, zoneminder, transmission, etc. I upgraded my router (And I don't really see how this has anything to do with the problem I am experiencing); but I cannot access my server through the usual way say in my browser typing http://ubuntu-server:10000 (for webmin). All that works if I do is 192.168.1.9:10000 (Same for all other web interface apps running on the server). Meaning
[18:09] <wiehan> only the IP address connects to the server not the server name, which surely wasn't changed. I am puzzled
[18:10] <jrwren> Vooloo: compile it yourself?
[18:11] <jrwren> wiehan: names have to resolve to IPs somehow, be it classic dns, or mdns or netbios. something was resolving the name to IP address in the past and is not now.
[22:36] <andygraybeal> so the gui runs on console ctrl-alt-f7 right?  is there a way to run a libvirt/kvm box and have it show up on say ctrl-alt-f6 or something?
[22:39] <xnox> andygraybeal: not really no, libvirt/kvm "show" you the screen via VNC. and do note that the virtual machine also has the same VTs as normal installation (e.g. it also has gui on ctrl-alt-f7)
[22:40] <xnox> andygraybeal: you could start a secondary session on vt6 instead of tty6 job and open VNC connection to the server..... but it would be that great.
[22:56] <andygraybeal> xnox okay
[22:56] <xnox> _would not_ be that great that is.
[22:56] <andygraybeal> i read it as such, thank you though for iterating.
[22:57] <xnox> =)
[22:57] <andygraybeal> hm... so here's my problem.. i have a users computer, that i want to run kvm on to run windows for quickbooks... it's for a very small business and can't afford a 'server'
[22:58] <xnox> andygraybeal: i use virt-manager for all my VMs. Works like a charm.
[22:58] <andygraybeal> yea, but i don't want to teach her how to use virt-manager :)
[22:58] <andygraybeal> but maybe i should.
[22:58] <xnox> andygraybeal: and gives a graphical way for anyone to "connect" to a given VM and auto-start them on boot.
[22:58] <xnox> andygraybeal: i believe you can make a desktop shortcut that opens it full screen.
[22:59] <andygraybeal> okay that is good enough i suppose.. at my previous job, i set them up with LTSP and ltsp can support different rdp/vnc on different virt consoles.. it was rocking.
[22:59] <andygraybeal> but it was on a terminal, not the server itselfl
[22:59] <xnox> andygraybeal: or create a user account that does it, which one logs into to work "on windows"
[23:00] <andygraybeal> thank you xnox, very good solutions
[23:00] <xnox> andygraybeal: lightdm has remote login options, but i'm not entirely sure how that works.
[23:00] <andygraybeal> ah neat.
