[00:42] <w0rmie> i've a connexion problem with a DELL XPS 8700 while installing ubuntu server 12.10
[00:43] <w0rmie> the configuration looks fine, but no way to access to internet for updates
[00:44] <w0rmie> RTNETLINK: File exists
[00:44] <w0rmie> Failed to bring up p2p1
[00:44] <w0rmie> so?
[00:45] <sarnold> w0rmie: unrelated, but are you sure you want to install 12.10 onto a server today? 12.10 is EOL in three months: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[00:47] <w0rmie> it's the most stable release i think to build a beowulf cluster
[00:51] <w0rmie> do you have an idea about how to resolve this sarnold? :)
[00:51] <sarnold> w0rmie: not off the top of my head; are there any more errors in dmesg? in the log files? what's the output of 'ip addr show', 'ip route show', etc?
[00:56] <w0rmie> $ ip addr show gives: 192.168.11.0/24 dev p2p1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.11.111
[00:56] <w0rmie> it's ip route show sorry
[00:57] <sarnold> ah, good, I though that 192.168.11.0/24 looked pretty strange there..
[00:57] <w0rmie> ;)
[00:58] <sarnold> do you have a default route?
[01:00] <w0rmie> yes
[01:01] <sarnold> can you ping or otherwise contact the router listed in the default route?
[01:01] <w0rmie> already done, unreachable
[01:03] <sarnold> hrm, does dmesg say anything interesting about the interface? do you have ethtool installed? does it say anything interesting about your nic?
[01:03] <sarnold> can you throw a 'known good' nic (laptop?) into that port on the switch? test the cable too?
[01:04] <w0rmie> the cable is tested and the network is fine, i am using windows and OSX too in the same net segment
[01:06] <w0rmie> ethtool says: Current message level: 0x00000033 (51)
[01:06] <w0rmie> ethtool says: drv probe ifdown ifup     Link detected: yes
[01:08] <sarnold> sorry w0rmie, I think I'm out of idas
[01:10] <w0rmie> it's ok sir, something goes wrong with the default kernel for RTL8111/8168B as i see on a forum here ;)
[02:56] <Lightsword> i'm trying to install ubuntu 13.10 on a supermicro MBD-H8SGL-F AMD socket G34 Opteron motherboard but the install freezes right after the initial loader
[03:04] <hitsujiTMO> Lightsword: where exactly does it freeze? have you made any keyboard entry at this point?
[03:04] <Lightsword> right after I hit the install ubuntu right after boot
[03:04] <Lightsword> actually there must be a bug in 13.10
[03:04] <Lightsword> 13.04 worked
[03:06] <hitsujiTMO> are you able to get up another tty at the point it freezes?
[03:07] <Lightsword> I was installing using the internal KVM
[08:55] <makara> hi. I've locked myself out of a VM by setting SSH to refuse passwords, before I added my key. I've added the vdh to another instance of Ubuntu. How can I see it, and mount it, so I can add the key?
[08:58] <hitsujiTMO> makara: is the drive showing up: sudo fdisk -l
[08:59] <makara> hitsujiTMO, yeah, it's /dev/sdb
[08:59] <makara> doesn't show in df
[08:59] <hitsujiTMO> makara: which partition of that is the / ?
[09:00] <hitsujiTMO> makara: sorry which partition of that is the /home ?
[09:00] <hitsujiTMO> makara: could you pastebin the output: sudo fdisk -l
[09:01] <makara> sdb1
[09:01] <hitsujiTMO> makara: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[09:01] <hitsujiTMO> makara: is sdb1 the / so?
[09:02] <makara> I've got the home directory here
[09:02] <makara> no .ssh folder yet
[09:02] <makara> i'm the same user on both machines
[09:03] <makara> mkdir .ssh permission denied
[09:03] <makara> what is your question?
[09:04] <hitsujiTMO> makara: ok. whats the path to the home as its mounted now?
[09:04] <makara> /mnt/home/
[09:04] <hitsujiTMO> makara: so: mkdir /mnt/home/makara/.ssh
[09:05] <makara> permission denied
[09:05] <hitsujiTMO> makara: ls -ld /mnt/home/makara
[09:06] <makara> makara:makara
[09:06] <makara> ls
[09:06] <hitsujiTMO> makara: mount | grep /dev/sdb1
[09:07] <makara> /dev/sdb1 on /mnt type ext4 (rw)
[09:07] <hitsujiTMO> makara: ls -l /mnt/home/makara/.ssh
[09:08] <makara> no such file or directory
[09:08] <makara> why would it be there?
[09:08] <makara> that's the problem
[09:08] <makara> I've edit sshd_config to allow passwords
[09:08] <makara> I'm going to detach and reboot
[09:08] <makara> thx 4 help
[09:08] <hitsujiTMO> makara: cool. might be easiest. can't see why you're getting the errors
[09:09] <zetheroo> I ssh into one of our KVM host servers and perform a simple df -h ... but it just sits there without giving any output. I have to exit the terminal, open a new terminal and ssh back in to get any response again ...
[09:09] <zetheroo> Also if I cd into /mnt and then try to do ls -la the same behavior occurs ... will not show anything and the terminal session is frozen ...
[09:09] <makara> I guess it knows the makara@pep is not makara@giz
[09:09] <hitsujiTMO> zetheroo: check dmesg and /var/log/syslog for any errors related to the df -h
[09:10] <makara> hitsujiTMO, I think i also encrypted the home directory. Would I be able to see the files in that case?
[09:10] <zetheroo> ok
[09:10] <hitsujiTMO> makara: no, the filesystem isn't aware of the host
[09:10] <hitsujiTMO> makara: ahh. if it was encrypted then you must load the encypted folder. the main folder is locked
[09:11] <zetheroo> hitsujiTMO: looks like one of the nfs mounts isn't responding ... thanks ;)
[09:13] <makara> hitsujiTMO, there are two folders?
[09:14] <hitsujiTMO> makara: with encrypted home folders, you encrypted home is mounted in place of /home/makara when you log in. the /home/makara on the drive is used as a mount point
[09:37] <makara> hitsujiTMO, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ecryptfs-utils/+bug/364015
[09:37] <makara> real pity that. I won't be using encrypted home for a while
[09:38] <zck> hi there
[09:38] <hitsujiTMO> makara: ahh. yeah. thats a bit annoying.
[09:39] <hitsujiTMO> makara: at least encrypted home is still valid for client devices
[09:51] <makara> hitsujiTMO, i'm going to remove the encryption
[09:51] <makara> but all the web pages show how to do it from a GUI
[09:51] <makara> any idea how to cli this?
[09:52] <hitsujiTMO> makara: afraid not. its not something a play with
[09:58] <b00tbu9> hi
[09:58] <b00tbu9> I would like to know how to set up and use mailx
[09:58] <b00tbu9> with an existing smtp server
[09:59] <b00tbu9> Tried searching internet..
[09:59] <b00tbu9> nothing worked
[10:04] <zck> b00tbu9: why do you want to use it?
[10:13] <smb> hallyn, I am on the libvirt update
[10:16] <hallyn> smb: cool, thanks
[10:16] <hallyn> smb: I just noticed it was only marked as affecting virt-manager while the patch was against libvirt :)
[10:17] <smb> hallyn, Yeah, I was about to change it later when I got the package prepared and tested. So you changing it saved me the hassle. :)
[10:17] <smb> hallyn, Just marked the virt-manager task invalid for that reason
[10:22] <makara> how can I chroot into a mounted filesystem? I want to create a user for the mounted drive, not my working OS
[10:24] <hallyn> smb: I didn't know offhand how to do that through the email api :)
[10:25] <smb> hallyn, He, nor would I  :)
[10:26] <hallyn> I guess I could have just done a new 'affects' stanza followed by status invalid
[10:32] <smb> hallyn, Got libvirt source package ready for quick sanity check and sponsoring up at chinstrap:~smb/4review
[10:32] <smb> Got it verified on my machine at home
[10:35] <makara> in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1156240
[10:35] <makara> they mount /dev and /dev/pts separately
[10:35] <makara> why?
[10:43] <hallyn> smb: can you just pastebin the debdiff?
[10:44] <smb> hallyn, I can, just did not think that would make things easier for you. A sec
[10:46] <smb> hallyn, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6843117/
[10:53] <hallyn> smb: i'd rename the patch 9023-xen-fix-parsing-xend-http-response.patch, but other than that looks good
[10:53] <hallyn> smb: oh wait, you need me to push it?
[10:53] <hallyn> sorry i missed that :)  ok, will push, thx
[10:53] <smb> hallyn, Yeah, still got no power to upload
[10:54] <smb> :) Feel free to change the name of the patch on that
[11:13] <hallyn> smb: ok, just did a test build to make sure :)  all's good, pushing.  thanks
[12:09] <adac> how can i create an user with home directory and no password. A system use?
[12:10] <adac> *user
[12:21] <shauno> adac: I'd usually use 'useradd' for that (rather than 'adduser').  it has a --system flag, amongst others.  if you don't specify a password, it'll have a disabled pass.  usually you'll still have a $HOME though, eg www-data has /var/www as a home
[12:21] <shauno> of course, hit up the man page and see which flags meet your requirements

[12:53] <hpr_> I have a question to koolhead17 regarding his OpenStack book
[12:53] <hpr_> The book makes use of the ubuntu distribution
[12:54] <hpr_> does the content of the book also applicable to other linux distributions ?
[12:54] <hpr_> like opensuse or debian or Linux Mint ?
[13:00] <ihre> Hello, I'd like to run an Apache2 server as a different user, so I edited APACHE_RUN_USER, but how can I let this user restart his apache2 process without sudo?
[13:14] <jamespage> roaksoax, does this ring a bell?
[13:14] <jamespage> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/maas/+bug/1274499
[13:14] <jamespage> I thought we raised it last november but maybe not
[13:17] <roaksoax> jamespage: let me check
[13:20] <roaksoax> jamespage: uhmmm
[13:24] <roaksoax> rvba: ^^
[13:26] <rvba> jamespage: roaksoax: yep, that's exactly what we think just happened with sparkiegeek's box.
[13:27] <zul> good morning
[13:27] <rvba> When the pool of IPs is exhausted, isc-dhcp-server apparently just re-uses already taken IPs.
[13:43] <jamespage> rvba, yup - that's where I raised it from
[13:49] <smoser> jamespage, do you have a suggstion for https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cloud-archive/+archive/cloud-tools-next/+build/5534963 ?
[13:49] <jamespage> smoser, yes - I pushed a branch to ~ubuntu-cloud-archive for that in the icehouse pocket
[13:50] <jamespage> can't actually remember if I uploaded it tho
[13:52] <smoser> jamespage, ok. ill follow that up. are you aware of https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cloud-archive/+archive/cloud-tools-next/+build/5534956
[13:52] <smoser> i just uploaded a 1.17.1.
[13:52] <jamespage> smoser, ah - you won't be able to backport that unchanged
[13:52] <jamespage> the gccgo version in precise sucks
[13:53] <jamespage> so you'll need to disable that bit of the packaging
[13:53] <smoser> hm..
[13:53] <smoser> ok. i thikn thats ok. mans we don't get other arches in cloud archive.
[13:53] <smoser> for precise. which is probably ok.

[14:03] <jamespage> zul, nova is still in proposed btw
[14:06] <zul> jamespage:  wtf?
[14:07] <zul> jamespage:  adt tests failed
[14:11] <smoser> stgraber, can i just drop the whole arch checking from ubuntu-cloud template ?
[14:12] <smoser> you added that, i dont really think its necessary.
[14:13] <stgraber> smoser: I'd rather not as otherwise people will end up downloading cloud images which they can't actually run and I prefer to be a bit more user friendly than that
[14:14] <smoser> they'lll download images they can't run when they *say* to do it
[14:15] <smoser> and they may have good reason for doing so
[14:15] <smoser> maybe they're going to patch in qemu-static
[14:15] <smoser> stgraber, ^
[14:17] <zul> jamespage:  sorry do you have the bug number for the api issue that you were having
[14:17] <zul> jamespage:  nm found it

[14:29] <koolhead17> jamespage: hello sir :)
[14:29] <zul> koolhead17:  sure
[14:31] <smoser> jamespage, do you have toolage that helps you magically decide to use an lp: branch or straight backport ?
[14:36] <jamespage> smoser, nothing official
[14:37] <jamespage> we probably should have that
[14:37] <jamespage> and a check in the backport-o-matic that looks for backport branches as well
[14:37] <smoser> second qustion
[14:37] <smoser> where would i disable the gccgo stuff for juju-core
[14:38] <jamespage> in d/control and d/rules
[14:46] <zul> jamespage:  i have a fix for nova for adt tests failing just testing it now
[14:50] <jamespage> yolanda_, please can you use http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~charm-helpers/charm-helpers/devel/view/head:/charmhelpers/core/host.py#L135
[14:50] <jamespage> instead of 'write' and then changing permissions please
[14:51] <yolanda_> jamespage, ok
[14:54] <smoser> jamespage, i'm confused by line 43 at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/juju-core/trusty/view/head:/debian/rules
[14:55] <smoser> ah. never mind.
[14:55] <zul> jamespage:  https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/nova/nova-api-fix/+merge/203987
[14:55] <smoser> everything will build with golang. and only non 'golang_archs' will build with gccgo
[14:56] <smoser> but that doens'tmake sense.
[14:56] <smoser> as my filed build took the gccgo path.
[14:56] <smoser> on amd64
[14:57] <jamespage> smoser, it did both actually
[14:57] <jamespage> golang first and then gccgo
[14:57] <smoser> right. its just funny logic.
[14:58] <smoser> because the variable is named 'golang_archs'. but you're using that to determine you should use gccgo
[14:59] <smoser> would you be opposd to naming that 'gccgo_arches' ?
[15:02] <smoser> m. never mind thats wrong too
[15:43] <zul> jamespage:  neutron fixed i think
[15:51] <smoser> jamespage, sorry for being dense.
[15:51] <smoser> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6844404/
[15:51] <smoser> that results in
[15:52] <smoser> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6844406/
[15:52] <zul> jamespage/smoser: can i get a +1 https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/neutron/fix-tests-locking-issues/+merge/204012
[15:53] <smoser> is that somehow going to work on the ppa builders ?
[16:12] <zul> jamespage:  https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/nova/nova-api-fix-too/+merge/204017 and https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/neutron/fix-tests-locking-issues/+merge/204012 (then we should be good for icehouse-2)
[16:17] <jamespage> zul, can we bump that into the release please
[16:17] <jamespage> https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/nova/nova-api-fix-too/+merge/204017
[16:18] <jamespage> neutron: +1
[16:20] <zul> jamespage:  yeah im just going to have to back out the fix-requirements patch then (due to sqlalchemy)
[16:21] <smoser> stgraber, sent new patch. please check.
[16:26] <zul> jamespage:  done
[16:28] <zul> brb i need to reboot
[16:31] <stgraber> smoser: your new patch now allows arm64 on armhf/armel which isn't supported (the other way around is, which is why I proposed using two entries instead in my previous e-mail.
[16:31] <smoser> your previous logic was also broken
[16:31] <smoser> the stuff i was replacing
[16:31] <smoser> running armhf on armel
[16:32] <smoser> i really think bothering with this "i'm smarter than you" is just wrong.
[16:32] <smoser> let the user do what they want. rather than maintaining a hard coded list of "this works"
[16:37] <stgraber> smoser: how's my logic broken? it may not be particularly readable in the arm64 case because it's done in two different if statements, the first checking for armel/armhf/arm64 on armel/armhf/arm64 and the second one ensuring that arm64 is never used on !arm64
[16:38] <smoser> your logic was previously broken saying armhf would not run on armel
[16:39] <smoser> err.. that it would run
[16:39] <smoser> which i think is broken logic
[16:39] <smoser> anyhow
[16:39] <zul> jamespage:  so +1 for nova?
[16:39] <smoser> fix it up however you thikn is "right".
[16:39] <smoser> i dont care enoguh
[16:39] <stgraber> smoser: it's not, armhf does run on armel
[16:40] <smoser> well, do whatever you like. again i think its wrong to care.
[16:40] <smoser> you'lll just fail early and possibly break someone who wanted to do something.
[16:40] <smoser> and thats the person you're going to stop.

[18:56] <UchM0nd> hello guys.. i have one problem.. i setup pptp server on ubuntu 12.4 (i used ubuntu documentation) and setup ufw firewall .. when i scan my ports i have ssh open and 1723 closed .. i don't know how to open it .. what to do?
[18:57] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: sudo ufw 1723
[18:57] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: sudo ufw allow 1723     sorry
[18:57] <UchM0nd> already done this
[18:57] <UchM0nd> but no luck
[18:58] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: can you pastebin the output of: sudo ufw status
[18:58] <Core_Craig> is the process listening on 1723 stopeed by chance?
[18:59] <UchM0nd> if so how to restart it
[18:59] <Core_Craig> Let's start with the ufw status check :)
[19:00] <UchM0nd> ufw status http://pastebin.com/Aqnsb3Wf
[19:01] <UchM0nd> when i connecting vpn error is 807
[19:01] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: no deny rules, so lets move onto the process. sudo service pptpd restart
[19:02] <UchM0nd> next ?
[19:02] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: test... is it working ?
[19:02] <UchM0nd> no same again
[19:03] <UchM0nd> when i scan with nmap it shows that i hav 22 and closed 1723
[19:04] <UchM0nd> my ip tables is in  /etc/rc.local
[19:04] <UchM0nd> iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
[19:04] <UchM0nd> eth0 is public
[19:04] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: sudo netstat -an | grep 1723
[19:05] <UchM0nd> nothing shown up
[19:05] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: then the server isn't listening. its not setup correctly
[19:06] <Core_Craig> I wonder if it's not bound to the correct port.
[19:06] <Core_Craig> Port as in eth0.
[19:06] <UchM0nd> so.. should i remove pptp and redo everithing again ?
[19:07] <hitsujiTMO> UchM0nd: no, just go through the the steps and verify your config first
[19:07] <UchM0nd> hitsujiTMO ok i will return in a minute ..
