ubottu | zentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04). | 00:00 |
WACOMalt | virtualmin/webmin supports 14.04 though? | 00:03 |
WACOMalt | Patrickdk, does zentray offer plenty of options? Aka can I host say, 5 separate domains on it, each using a different IP etc etc | 00:04 |
WACOMalt | mail server, FTP, mysql, postgre | 00:05 |
Patrickdk | how should I know? | 00:05 |
WACOMalt | oh... you recommended it so I figured maybe you used it | 00:05 |
Patrickdk | I didn't recommend anything | 00:06 |
Patrickdk | I just listed *options* | 00:06 |
WACOMalt | ok, sorry then | 00:06 |
Patrickdk | there might be more options | 00:06 |
Patrickdk | but those are the ones that I know of | 00:06 |
Sachiru | Also can anyone recommend a shared web host or cloud email provider? The shared web hosting will be used strictly for IMAP/email purposes (we need custom branding for email for 15 users, but we create and delete users a lot due to the nature of the nonprofit, so if we'll go by created users a month it will be more like 30 users) | 00:09 |

Patrickdk | reboot? :) | 00:58 |
jak2000 | yes reboot | 00:58 |
sarnold | WACOMalt: you need something like: sudo apt-key adv --recv-key E23F4777 | 01:05 |
sarnold | WACOMalt: (I found the keyid by downloading the Release and Release.gpg file, and running "gpg Release.gpg" | 01:05 |

jak2000 | how to restart/reboot a ububtu server? sudo shutdown -g0 -r ? or? | 02:02 |
sarnold | jak2000: what does -g0 do? I don't see it in my shutdown(8) manpage | 02:03 |
jak2000 | sarnold :) bad practice other linux | 02:03 |
jak2000 | the: sudo shutdown -r its ok? | 02:03 |
sarnold | jak2000: I always use sudo shutdown -r now | 02:04 |
rena_ | sudo reboot | 02:07 |
sarnold | I don't recommend reboot since some unix systems instantly reset the CPU on 'reboot': no dirty buffer flushing, no filesystem umounts, no process killing.. | 02:08 |
TJ- | sarnold: reboot calls shutdown unless runlevel is {0,6} | 02:11 |

peetaur2 | weeb1e_: :D | 12:01 |
peetaur2 | weeb1e_: boot rescue/live cd, chroot into root, make sure boot is mounted, apt-get install linux-image-... | 12:01 |
peetaur2 | weeb1e_: and then: optional, not required unless you also lost /boot: grub-install /dev/sdX then maybe optional: update-initramfs -u and important: update-grub | 12:02 |
peetaur2 | I have also written this which has the same chroot and grub install steps: http://pastebin.com/4NLFkdzQ | 12:03 |

pds_corp | hi guys, is there a tutorial regarding on how to renew a certificate for an apache server | 13:53 |
peetaur2 | pds_corp: as long as you know where the files are, should be easy... | 13:56 |
peetaur2 | pds_corp: the trouble is just finding the files. eg. someone in ##proxmox changed their cert and found that they had to also open a .jar file to replace the one for the VNC client too. | 13:56 |
pds_corp | peetaur2: nope guess staring with .csr file | 13:56 |
peetaur2 | to find the old certs, just find the config that points there | 13:56 |
peetaur2 | and you also change the key, not just cert | 13:57 |
peetaur2 | client needs cert, but server needs key | 13:57 |

jamespage | rharper, that debdiff I pasted is the full diff, which includes all of the changes in the changelog | 15:06 |
jamespage | rharper, merging is normally just about doing what we did last time and resolving any conflicts or drops | 15:07 |
rharper | jamespage: ok -- so I posted the wrong thing ? I mean for etc keeper, the merge change just looked to me like we kept the same "use bzr by default" patch between versions | 15:11 |
rharper | jamespage: not sure how to express that in debdiffs | 15:11 |
jamespage | rharper, the debdiff was just fine - but your changelog entry needed updating - that's all I changed | 15:11 |

jkyle | LarsN: but they rarely work without tweaking and usually include a whole lot of extra, unneeded (or unwanted) options | 17:55 |
jkyle | hallyn: let me try that one, I just want a running system at this point. | 17:56 |
hallyn | jkyle: it's based on kirkland's that he used to ship at uquick.ly or somesuch. should we create a wiki page wiki.ubuntu.com/preseeds? | 17:57 |
jkyle | hallyn: I think they have some in ubuntu community documentaiton. just need to update with a working. this canned preseed will probably work, I was just hoping ot get it going with a kickstart | 18:00 |

LarsN | jkyle, hallyn Thanks to both of you | 18:05 |
jkyle | there's a lot to like about debian, but it's installer isn't one. what's frustrating is this has been a trivial process for ages in most distros | 18:06 |
hallyn | jkyle: in principle it should be nice to use; i don't know why it's so hit-or-miss, and yes it's horribly frustrating :( | 18:07 |
inv3nt0r | I'm attempting to upgrade my Ubuntu 12 server to Ubuntu 14 using the do-release-upgrade method, and getting 404 errors for the 'Upgrade tool signature' and the 'Upgrade tool' | 18:20 |
inv3nt0r | Any thoughts? | 18:20 |
mov_agn_ntrl | i just got here myself a min ago - looks like none here | 18:24 |
mov_agn_ntrl | i just found this inv3nt0r http://askubuntu.com/questions/65911/how-can-i-fix-a-404-error-when-updating-packages | 18:26 |
mov_agn_ntrl | and this inv3nt0r http://askubuntu.com/questions/462326/upgrade-ubuntu-server-11-04-signature-error | 18:26 |
inv3nt0r | Thanks | 18:27 |
patdk-wk | why post something about 11.04? that has been unsupported for years | 18:27 |
mov_agn_ntrl | yeah inv3nt0r it's what i thought - you could write a list of your manual upgrades you have done - and then i think you could also make a boot disk with al you r current settings just in case you need to go back to 12 for some reason, but looks lik einstalling a new version of 14 might be your best bet | 18:28 |
mov_agn_ntrl | does this help inv3nt0r https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+question/251853 | 18:29 |
inv3nt0r | Crappity. | 18:29 |
mov_agn_ntrl | I found this one - it looks prmiosing, that's all i got inv3nt0r best of luck http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-upgrade-to-ubuntu-14-04-from-ubuntu-13-10-or-12-04/ | 18:29 |
mov_agn_ntrl | *pro... | 18:30 |
inv3nt0r | Hmm | 18:32 |
mov_agn_ntrl | anything ring a bell or help you see whats wrong inv3nt0r ? | 18:32 |
inv3nt0r | Well | 18:32 |
inv3nt0r | I'm jhaving mixed results | 18:32 |
mov_agn_ntrl | well best of luck man :) | 18:33 |
mov_agn_ntrl | or woman - idk what kind of inv3nt0r you are :P | 18:33 |
* inv3nt0r = man | 18:34 | |
mov_agn_ntrl | same here dude | 18:34 |
inv3nt0r | Haha | 18:34 |
inv3nt0r | Well | 18:34 |
inv3nt0r | Maybe I don't need to upgrade | 18:34 |
inv3nt0r | This server won't be my problem after 5 more work days | 18:34 |
inv3nt0r | I hate to leave something broken behind though... | 18:35 |
inv3nt0r | Right now I cant even apt-get install zip | 18:35 |
inv3nt0r | So | 18:35 |
inv3nt0r | I guess I can do a deb install | 18:35 |
mov_agn_ntrl | you could always do the complete download and install on a partitioned area of disk - so if soehting goes wrong, you can go back? but isnt 12 almost out of service? | 18:35 |
inv3nt0r | It appears that way, thus why I cant even install zip support :) | 18:37 |
mov_agn_ntrl | what is zip support? | 18:41 |
mov_agn_ntrl | the only reason i ever use zip files anymore is to compress a folder and send it by email, but most people that receive it still dont know what to do | 18:42 |
patdk-wk | oh? you can send zip via email without it being rejected? :) | 18:43 |
user123321 | What kind of settings might I need to check for HAProxy and Keepalived for reducing the delay in case of an IP fail over? | 18:47 |
andol | user123321: If nothing else the healthchecker interval matters. | 18:47 |
* inv3nt0r gives himself a pat on the back | 18:48 | |
user123321 | andol, cool. | 18:48 |
inv3nt0r | Looks like zip_3.0-6 is not in the repository, but luckily 3.0-4 was so I installed it via dpkg | 18:48 |
andol | user123321: Well, except that I might have answered the wrong question :) The healthchecker is really about detecting broken backends, no for failing over the actual HA frontend. | 18:50 |
user123321 | Aha | 18:51 |
patdk-wk | heh? | 18:52 |
patdk-wk | keepalived can failover the frontend easily | 18:52 |
andol | patdk-wk: Yes, but were refering to the keepalived healthchecker specifially, which might not have been relevant gives user123321's question. | 18:52 |
patdk-wk | well, if he is using haproxy, keepalived shouldn't be checking backends | 18:53 |
patdk-wk | but only the haproxy frontend | 18:53 |
patdk-wk | and failingover based on that | 18:53 |
andol | Another point in favor of my answering the wrong quetsion :) | 18:54 |
user123321 | Right now, I have Keepalived1+Haproxy+web server in one VM, and Keepalived2+Haproxy2+web server in another VM. If I fail one VM, my browser waits some seconds. | 18:54 |
patdk-wk | it takes time | 18:55 |
patdk-wk | you have many issues there | 18:55 |
patdk-wk | you have how long it takes for haproxy to detect a bad backend | 18:55 |
patdk-wk | you have the mount of time it takes keepalive to detect a bad haproxy | 18:55 |
patdk-wk | and you have the time it takes for move the ip to the good one | 18:55 |
patdk-wk | and it doesn't sound like you have the time for it takes to enact stonith/fencing | 18:56 |
user123321 | Any ideas to reduce? | 18:56 |
patdk-wk | that would require me to learn keepalived, not something I have ever liked | 18:56 |
patdk-wk | I'll stick with corosync | 18:56 |
user123321 | Aha | 18:56 |
patdk-wk | but still, no matter what, it will be a few seconds :) | 18:57 |
patdk-wk | at best, likely 2seconds | 18:57 |
inv3nt0r | mov_agn_ntrl: I needed to create a .zip file for a Windows user who would never in a million years figured out how to open a .tar.gz | 18:57 |
patdk-wk | use 7zip :) | 18:58 |
mov_agn_ntrl | oh. .tar.gz? i never heard of it but i would probably get a non-malware program to open in in a few mionutes form a download site like download.com etc | 18:58 |
mov_agn_ntrl | idk though, i just dont zip files anymore | 18:58 |
user123321 | patdk-wk, is it really impossible to make it like, 0.1 seconds? I'm thinking like, "just ping and if no response, redirect to the other or something" :p | 18:58 |
inv3nt0r | Believe me, I'd have them use something more advanced but they would eff up, and install scumware from CNET | 18:59 |
patdk-wk | heh? how is that going work? | 18:59 |
patdk-wk | how can you redirect, if it's dead | 18:59 |
patdk-wk | you have to bring the ip up online | 19:00 |
user123321 | redirect to the live server. | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | and you have to update the mac caches on everything upstream | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | you can't redirect | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | this is ip, not http | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | there is no redirect | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | how would a dead server redirect? | 19:00 |
user123321 | umm I mean, something like redirect :d | 19:00 |
patdk-wk | nothing like a redirect! | 19:00 |
user123321 | dead server doesn't do anything, right? So, if the live server could see that the other server is dead, can't it become active quickly? | 19:01 |
patdk-wk | the issue is, detecting if it is dead in .1 second isn't normally trivial | 19:02 |
patdk-wk | and if you ACTIVATE it | 19:02 |
patdk-wk | and the other server is not dead, you have issues | 19:02 |
user123321 | if the live server pings the dead server, if the response isn't received within 0.05 seconds? | 19:03 |
user123321 | I'm actually thinking about whatever the settings that could do it quickly ;) | 19:04 |
patdk-wk | you really think that *dead server* is never going be overloaded | 19:04 |
patdk-wk | due to like *php* load | 19:04 |
patdk-wk | or a disk going bad | 19:04 |
user123321 | I see, so, during the transition period, let's assume, 2 seconds. If, during this time, if 1000 new connections are requested by clients, what would happen? | 19:05 |
user123321 | will they get no connection error in any case | 19:06 |
user123321 | or just getting response in 2 seconds? | 19:06 |
user123321 | let's make it maximum, 1 million etc. | 19:07 |
patdk-wk | it's tcp | 19:07 |
patdk-wk | and it will depend on many things | 19:07 |
user123321 | what if both http and tcp | 19:07 |
patdk-wk | likely, it will just wait 2seconds before it connects | 19:07 |
user123321 | I see | 19:08 |
patdk-wk | if it was keepalive, they will get a connection reset, and maybe it tries again | 19:08 |
patdk-wk | what od you mean both http and tcp | 19:08 |
patdk-wk | there is only TCP/ip | 19:08 |
patdk-wk | http is not a transit layer protocol | 19:08 |
user123321 | Oh I meant, apache etc. | 19:08 |
patdk-wk | user123321, before attempting ANY of this | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | learn about the iso model, and about ip/tcp | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | what does apache have to do with it? that is even LESS than http does | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | and http has NOTHING to do with it | 19:09 |
user123321 | umm, there's layer 7 LB. | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | haproxy is a layter 7 lb | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | but we aren't talking about that | 19:09 |
patdk-wk | we are talkg about BEFORE haproxy | 19:10 |
patdk-wk | last I knew, keepalive was not a layer 7 lb | 19:10 |
patdk-wk | or even ANY lb at all | 19:10 |
user123321 | that i'm not sure, I thought keepalived just made the 2 LB's highly available. | 19:11 |
patdk-wk | yes | 19:12 |
patdk-wk | and if we are attempting to make the lb high available, how can we do that using a layer 7 lb? | 19:12 |
user123321 | regarding apache, during the fail over, my browser says "connecting" and eventually connected. | 19:12 |
patdk-wk | you can't protect something using itself | 19:12 |
patdk-wk | why does apache matter? | 19:12 |
patdk-wk | you -> internet -> isp -> keepalived -> haproxy -> apache | 19:13 |
patdk-wk | if it's broken at the keepalived layer (server died, ip broken, ...) | 19:13 |
patdk-wk | how does apache matter at all? | 19:13 |
user123321 | Well I didn't get a connection reset. | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | you sure? | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | that would happen i nthe background | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | and depend on EXACT TIMING | 19:14 |
user123321 | yeah, tried many times. | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | if you are already connected to the first server | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | and it dies | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | you failover ip to second one | 19:14 |
patdk-wk | second one will see packet but won't have session state for it, and respond with a reset/denied | 19:15 |
user123321 | Oh, the failover while downloading data. I suspect that would reset. | 19:15 |
user123321 | btw, any suggestions for haproxy settings that would reduce delay? | 19:16 |
patdk-wk | I don't use haproxy | 19:16 |
patdk-wk | I don't see a need to use to double up like that | 19:16 |
user123321 | Ah | 19:16 |
user123321 | what do you use? | 19:17 |
patdk-wk | ipvs | 19:17 |
user123321 | I see | 19:17 |
user123321 | What's the failover delay in your case? | 19:18 |
patdk-wk | around 15seconds | 19:18 |
user123321 | ok | 19:18 |
patdk-wk | if the balancer where to die | 19:18 |
patdk-wk | it takes a long time to bring up that many ip addresses | 19:19 |
patdk-wk | if a backend dies? <1second | 19:19 |
user123321 | Cool | 19:19 |
patdk-wk | I have only had the balancer die once in 4 years | 19:19 |
=== Guest75987 is now known as Pest | ||
user123321 | how many balancers you've got? | 19:20 |
patdk-wk | 2 | 19:21 |
patdk-wk | one active, one passive | 19:21 |
user123321 | Aha | 19:22 |
user123321 | patdk-wk, Is it sensible to install servers in the load balancing machine? Is it usually the practice to dedicate a separate computer only for a load balancer? | 19:27 |
patdk-wk | that depends on scale | 19:29 |
patdk-wk | using the same machine, makes it slower to failover | 19:30 |
patdk-wk | but using dedicated onces takes more resources | 19:30 |
user123321 | Cool | 19:31 |
user123321 | patdk-wk, what's your suggestion for load balancing and making highly available between, let's say, only 2 servers? Should I get 2 separate LB's or..? | 20:08 |
user123321 | What would be my options? | 20:09 |
flubby_nanabo | So, If I wanna run a script on startup, but it's supposed to run only once, and exit, should I put it on rc.local, or make it a service on /etc/init (or init.d)? | 20:56 |
sarnold | flubby_nanabo: I'd do an upstart service, might as well make it integrate easily with the other tools. cron's @reboot might be handy if it is a user-script instead of system-script | 21:17 |
=== arrrghhhAWAY is now known as arrrghhh | ||
Patrickdk | sarnold, please :) | 21:23 |
Patrickdk | at this point, I wouldn't recommend upstart anymore, but systemd | 21:23 |
Patrickdk | considering upstart is being removed | 21:23 |
sarnold | Patrickdk: except he isn't running systemd today, and he isn't running systemd tomorrow. | 21:24 |
* Patrickdk still needs to redo his | 21:24 | |
Patrickdk | well then :) | 21:24 |
Patrickdk | if he has 14.04 he could be running systemd today | 21:24 |
sarnold | Patrickdk: maybe if he upgrades to 14.10 and if pitti goes bonkers, -maybe-.... | 21:24 |
rberg_ | this is how I do a first boot scrip in rc.local http://paste.ubuntu.com/7927450/ | 21:24 |
flubby_nanabo | I do have 14.04, but I am using the ubuntu-upstart docker image, so, I guess I'm sort of stuck with upstart for now | 21:26 |
Patrickdk | :) | 21:27 |
flubby_nanabo | Patrickdk, upstart is being deprecated? I thought it was the new shinny thing ... | 21:27 |
Patrickdk | I just hate to write something, that I will have to rewrite | 21:27 |
Patrickdk | itwas, back in 12.04? | 21:27 |
Patrickdk | but debian went systemd, and ubuntu opted to not fight it | 21:27 |
flubby_nanabo | Patrickdk, I need a docker image with a init system that the puppetlabs-mysql puppet module understands, and the ubuntu-upstart was the only one I could find, so, I don't see myself rewriting it any time soon | 21:28 |
Patrickdk | :) | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | odd | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | actually, you should be able to in a few months | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | with rhel7 out, using systemd | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | and debian too | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | that should be around soon | 21:29 |
Patrickdk | no worries though | 21:29 |
flubby_nanabo | Patrickdk, I'm not planning on ditching ubuntu, with works pretty well, and I don't have experience with rpm distros. | 21:30 |
flubby_nanabo | *it owrks | 21:30 |
flubby_nanabo | *it works | 21:30 |
flubby_nanabo | damn fingers! | 21:30 |
Patrickdk | I mean, the pupplet-mysql-for-systemd should be out soon | 21:30 |
flubby_nanabo | Patrickdk, Oh, that. | 21:30 |
flubby_nanabo | I should probably take a look at the code, see if there's any changes in some new release | 21:31 |
flubby_nanabo | IIRC, last time I checked it just either used upstart, or just failed when starting the services | 21:31 |
bilde2910 | Hello! I have a laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 server, as the main server for my website. Earlier today, the server got disconnected, seemingly without reason. I tried restarting the machine, but the network does not go up. Running ifconfig only shows loopback interface lo, `sudo lshw -C network' lists the interface em1 (the ethernet interface) as "*-network DISABLED". Card is an RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet | 21:39 |
bilde2910 | Controller". Any help resolving this? I need to get the machine online as fast as possible because thousands of users of my web services are unable to connect to the website | 21:39 |
bilde2910 | I furthermore tried to sudo dhclient em1, which brought the interface up with DHCP. It gives the wrong IP, therefore breaking port forwarding rules. sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart doesn't output anything, `sudo ifdown em0 && sudo ifup em1' gives errors: "ifdown: interface em1 not configured", "RTNETLINK answers: File exists" and "Failed to bring up em1". | 21:41 |
markthomas | Does anyone know if it's possible to configure network bonding via preseed? | 21:45 |
