PinchiukasIs there a way to make the installation of Ubuntu server smaller and less memory hungry?04:22
histoPinchiukas: yes install a minimal system04:31
Pinchiukashisto: how?04:37
histoPinchiukas: expert install, net install, or use debootstrap04:40
histo!lowmemory | Pinchiukas04:40
ubottuPinchiukas: For installing on low memory systems, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems.  See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements.04:40
PinchiukasIs the "Install a command-line system" still available on the installation CDs?04:48
PinchiukasI don't remember seeing one and I don't have one on hand.04:48
histoPinchiukas: the server install is a command-line system04:53
histoPinchiukas: afaik it's only availible on the server and net/mini iso04:53
PinchiukasOk, I'll try that, thanks.04:56

Braden`Hello08:12
Braden`How would I modify /etc/init.d/php5-fpm to always perform "chown www-data.www-data /var/run/php5-fpm.sock" every time "service php5-fpm start" is called?08:12
SachiruQuery: Why do you want php5-fpm to do that?08:14
Braden`I noticed that after upgrading ubuntu, the new version of apache fpm actually cares who owns the sock08:15
Braden`socket08:15
Braden`I get 500 errors if I don't set the owner08:15
SachiruOkay... so why do you need to set the owner every time you start the service?08:17
SachiruAnd not, you know, set it once and be done with it?08:17
Braden`Because the sock file is destroyed and recreated when the service is restarted08:17
Braden`and when it is recreated it is owned by root.root08:18
Braden`Sachiru:  I presume you know how to accomplish what I am wanting, or will you sit there and let me to continue to suffer?08:20
Braden`:)08:20
histoBraden`: you've been answered multiple times in #ubuntu08:20
histoBraden`: that's probably not what you want to do. try adding "listen.owner = www-data" and "listen.group = www-data" to the conf file in /etc/php5/<other08:20
histo │                 | stuff here>08:20
histofrom ben64Braden`: that's probably not what you want to do. try adding "listen.owner = www-data" and "listen.group = www-data" to the conf file in /etc/php5/<other08:20

no_gravityShouldnt a change of the A RECORD of a subdomain immediately have an effect? When i dig sub.mydomain.org ... why do i still get the old ip?13:25
rbasakno_gravity: it's common for DNS responses to be cached.13:29
jamespagezul, urh - glance is also not backporting from proposed for precise-icehouse - that rings a bell? didn't we have trouble in the lab with that one?13:30
zulsix13:30
no_gravityrbasak: yeah.. i found out now. 1h ttl.13:30
zuljamespage:  interesting http://paste.ubuntu.com/7726547/13:52

begginnerHow do I get the system to mil itself (14.04 LTS)  I installed sSMTP and alpine and can send mail to other machines, but not to itself.16:18
RoyKbegginner: install postfix16:21
=== a1berto_ is now known as a1berto
begginnerI just installed postfix as you suggested... still no luck.  Where do I look for error messages?16:27
RoyKbegginner: /var/log/mail.*16:28
RoyKbegginner: have you setup a firewall?16:28
begginnerI have not set up a firewall, but the server is behind one (10.17....)16:30
RoyKbegginner: then you need to setup port forwarding somewhere to allow the smtp traffic to enter your machine16:31
begginnerWhere can I read about that?  I didn't know the firewall could stop mail from localhost to localhost16:35
RoyKerm16:35
RoyKno16:36
RoyKit can't16:36
RoyKbegginner: so - trying to just 'mail myuser' won't send it?16:36
begginnerinstead of silenec I am seeing error messages now in the mail log16:38
RoyKpastebin that16:41
RoyK!pastebin | begginner16:41

begginnerJust a second... I'll try that.   But now that I install postfix I can no longer mail off that box to other machines16:43
RoyKthat's wierd indeed16:44
begginner!pastebinit http://paste.ubuntu.com/7727205/16:44
begginnerI guess I did that wrong16:44
RoyKcaldwell is your username?16:45
RoyKand add things like postmaster/hostmaster/abuse etc to /etc/aliases and run newaliases to generate the hash16:46
begginneryes16:47
RoyKbegginner: it's really wierd - never seen this before16:48
begginnerthe only line there is "postmaster: root"; do I just set the rest to root?16:50
RoyKpreferably your own user16:50
RoyKor16:50
RoyKset them to root and16:50
RoyKroot: youruser16:50
RoyKthat way you get the root mail too16:50
begginnerthings might be working...16:53
RoyK:)16:55
begginnerThank-you very much...   I check more carefully in awile but I sent mail to myself and another machine...16:55

bitbyteIs any one any good with grub available ?18:46
bitbytewell summary of the issue is on : http://pastebin.com/9rvUhbPv18:49
sarnoldbitbyte: I don't actually see any problems / questions..18:52
bitbytesorry most the details are in the pastebin link, i’ve added it in grub and now when the server reboot now bypasses grub and goes straight to booting and still can’t find the keyfile to unlock the encrypted LVM18:54
sarnoldwhy bother with encrypted filesystems if the key is stored on the machine?18:59
bitbytethe first I would say its good security practice to have it encrypted, the second I work away alot and oftern need to reboot the server, thirdly this is a dry run for putting the keyfile on a USB stick so the final prodcut is as long as USB is plugged in itll boot into the OS19:02
bitbytethere are other reasons which i’m not going to get into but for the moment i’m a little stuck with grub19:02

frogblue'lo sry to ask but do you know any serious channel where I could have answer with apache2 directives. httpd channel seems like more a bash channel than anything else...19:42
rbasak!ask|frogblue19:46
ubottufrogblue: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience19:46
frogbluerbasak, well the question is there, maybe not well written, I concede..19:47
lordievaderfrogblue: I guess what rbasak means is that you can ask your apache questions here. Who knows perhaps someone has the answer ;)19:50
frogbluedidn't want to bother you with apache2 questions but if you invite me, ty then19:51
frogblueI have several vhosts. each sites have an admin backend. I'd like to force http://site/admin to https://site/admin19:52
frogbluewithout htaccess19:53
frogblueI tried redirectmatch but i can only do redirectmatch (.*)/admin https://tld/admin  what i would like to do is something like redirectmatch (.*)/admin https://$1/admin but the backreference doesn't catch the tld aparently19:54
lordievaderfrogblue: For as far as I know, what you want can be accomplished with apache's rewrite rules. However, I know next to nothing about apache's rewrite rules. But I'm sure someone else can help you with that ;)19:55
frogblueso the last answer I had on #httpd was you must not use redirectmatch but you can do what you want to achieve19:56
frogbluehence my coming here where I regurlarly read more sensible answers :)19:56
frogbluelordievader, ty19:56
rbasakfrogblue: can you not just do one per domain? Why must your (.*) catch the domain name also?20:05
rbasakfrogblue: you can have per-virtualhost redirects20:05
frogblueyeah am reading the redirects only right now. of course I can write one line per vhost but am intersting i n knowing if I can use a "catch for all" thing20:06
frogbluemeaning that only file would be needed to force site1/admin site 2/admin... site1000/admin to https://siten/admin20:07
rbasakI got the impression virtualhost level was the highest level you could go for this sort of thing. But I'm not an expert in this area.20:08
frogbluesame for me :)20:08
SpinDoct0rDoes anybody have an experience troubleshooting 802.3ad network card bonding in Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS. It claims to be up but will not send traffic.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7728111/20:10
blaaaI am thinking about installing some web/php-based management tools (e.g. phpldapadmin)20:15
blaaaIs it good practice to use the packages in the repositories, or is it better to install packages like this manually into a php-environment (from the repository)20:16
geniiblaaa: Best practice is to use the repository packages, since if there are any crucial security updates, they can be applied.20:18
PryMar56blaaa, of course the repo packages use standard locations and file extensions. This makes it easy for outsiders to target your setup files and try and get usefil info20:18
frogbluerbasak, RewriteEngine On20:20
frogblueRewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on20:20
frogblueRewriteRule ^/?administrator(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/administrator/$1 [R,L]20:20
frogbluethis works. tooko me 9 freaking hours to get there...20:20
blaaagenii: Yes, maintenance-wise it's a bit more straightforward, but If there are any patches, theyr would be easily applied manually to the manual packages as well, maybe even faster if I'd keep a close watch on mailing lists etc20:31
lordievaderblaaa: That's manual work. Why not let apt do the updates for you ;)20:32
blaaaPryMar56: I suppose using packages like this at all is the greates risk, but managing ldap from the command line can be a pain (for me at least)20:32
lordievaderIf I know one thing, its that sysadmins are lazy :P20:32
blaaalierdievader: yes, true :)20:33
blaaaI have picked 14.04 lts for the lts part, so why wouldn;t I use that20:34

sarnoldMonotoko: I wonder if some process is writing to /proc/sysrq-trigger22:48

Monotokosarnold, it's virtual22:49
Monotokono keyboard there to hit22:49
Monotokoi've only ever had it open when it's done it once22:49
sarnoldMonotoko: on crazy.22:49
sarnoldMonotoko: check the /etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq.conf file -- you can disable to sysrq interface, that might do the trick22:49
sarnoldMonotoko: but it'd be best to figure out why it's happening. maybe you could use auditd to watch /proc/sysrq-trigger?22:50
Monotokoil have a look... cheers, it took my primary nameserver out today so I'm just intent on stopping it happening on my important systems atm22:50
