[01:35] <fridaynext> i've installed lm-sensors, but when i execute "sensors", this is all I get - http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=x3YJkKHd
[01:35] <fridaynext> any idea how to get fan speeds as well?
[01:37] <PryMar56> fridaynext, append kernel cmdline acpi_enforce_resources=lax
[01:38] <fridaynext> PryMar56: do you mean to type all of that after "sensors" ?
[01:38] <PryMar56> modify grub for vmlinuz
[01:39] <PryMar56> there is usually a conflict between chip drivers like w83627hf and acpi
[01:41] <fridaynext> PryMar56: ah - I didn't run sensors-detect first.
[01:41] <fridaynext> just ran that, now rebooting to see if I get more data.
[06:28] <user123321> HAProxy gives me a warning that FD limit is too low (1024), but I have already raised it in LUbuntu, any idea?
[08:11] <lordievader> Good morning.
[08:14] <Abhijit> i have set d-i netcfg/choose_interface select eth0 and using this preseed file for ubuntu installation on two nic system. at installation it still ask me to select nic manually.
[08:21] <izarry> hello?
[08:21] <Abhijit> hi
[08:22] <izarry> can i ask a question here? cuz im new at ubuntu server, and im installing the squidguard , should i install gksudo on server too ? or on desktop?
[08:23] <Abhijit> no
[08:23] <Abhijit> you dont use gksudo on server. only sudo.
[08:23] <Abhijit> izarry, ^
[08:24] <izarry> i am following this instruction https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SquidGuard and im stuck at squid configuration :(
[08:24] <Abhijit> so ask the actual squid question.
[08:26] <lordievader> izarry: gksudo (or kdesudo for that matter) is used for applications with a gui, since a server rarely features a gui sudo suffices.
[08:27] <izarry> lordievader, oh okay thanks for that good info
[08:29] <Abhijit> okey ...
[08:39] <Ronnie> I have a problem upgrading a 10.04 ubuntu server in a openvz container. do-release-upgrade failed and left me in a (for me) unsolvable state: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8120778/
[10:16] <darksider> hi all
[10:17] <darksider> I have an Ubuntu headless media server. I experience random system total freezes. Can someone advice me on how to investigate the issue?
[10:22] <RoyK> darksider: first, pastebin output of dmesg
[10:22] <RoyK> !pastebin | darksider
[10:24] <darksider> omw
[11:14] <darksider> RoyK: I'm trying to get it to freeze again. Can seem to be able for now, will pastebin dmesg as soon as I succeed
[11:15] <darksider> I'm posting the one I have right now anyway: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8121698/
[11:21] <darksider> any suggestions, guys?
[11:30] <RoyK> darksider:  The Paste you are looking for does not currently exist.
[11:31] <RoyK> darksider: dmesg or /var/log/syslog should have some clues if it's detected by Linux
[11:31] <darksider> I just clicked the link and it opened for me...
[11:32] <RoyK> got it
[11:32] <RoyK> nothing there after the bootup messages...
[11:32] <RoyK> wierd
[11:33] <darksider> just got it to freeze
[11:33] <RoyK> total freeze?
[11:33] <darksider> yes
[11:34] <darksider> what shall I do after I reboot?
[11:34] <RoyK> hm...
[11:34] <RoyK> perhaps configure a network console
[11:35] <darksider> I'm accessing it using SSH
[11:35] <darksider> as it's headless. Should I pastebin the syslog?
[11:35] <RoyK> network console isn't ssh - a network console will send you kernel messages that are meant to be output to the console
[11:36] <RoyK> yeah, check /var/log/syslog
[11:36] <RoyK> tail -100 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[11:37] <darksider> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8121831/
[11:37] <RoyK> nothing there either
[11:38] <RoyK> try a memory test - attach a monitor and keyboard to the thing to see if there's any output when it hangs - or use a network console
[11:39] <RoyK> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Netconsole
[11:39] <darksider> does syslog reset after reboot? I just see entries after the reboot
[11:39] <RoyK> no, it doesn't, or if it does, the old one is /var/log/syslog.1
[11:41] <darksider> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8121860/ the entire content of syslog
[11:44] <RoyK> CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0
[11:44] <RoyK> not sure what that means
[11:44] <RoyK> darksider: how often does it freeze like this?
[11:47] <darksider> I have deluge torrent installed on the server. Trying to download a 50Gb torrent, and it seems to freeze every time, at some point. The torrent is being saved on a NAS, which is mounted using CIFS
[11:48] <RoyK> darksider: start with a memory test
[11:48] <RoyK> darksider: attach keyboard+monitor and run the memory test from grub
[11:48] <darksider> RoyK: done it some time ago with no errors, will try it again
[11:49] <RoyK> also
[11:49] <RoyK> what sort of NAS is this?
[11:49] <RoyK> looks like something is messed up with CIFS
[11:49] <RoyK> so if you can use NFS, it may work around the problem
[11:52] <darksider> it is an Apple timecapsule
[11:53] <darksider> is NFS more stable than CIFS?
[11:54] <RoyK> not necessarily, but it looks like there are some CIFS issues according to your logs
[11:54] <RoyK> which ubuntu version is this?
[11:54] <darksider> 14.04
[11:56] <darksider> tried to lookup the error, couldnt find anything of use
[11:56] <RoyK> me neither
[11:57] <darksider> do you think it can go so far as to create a kernel panic?
[11:57] <RoyK> attach a keyboard+monitor
[11:57] <RoyK> or use a netconsole
[11:57] <RoyK> then you'll know
[11:58] <RoyK> netconsole will be better for logging
[11:58] <darksider> im doing a memtest right now, with keyboard and monitor attached
[11:58] <RoyK> a panic isn't necessarily logged
[12:02] <darksider> so once the memory test is done, I shall try to reproduce the freeze while looking and the error console
[12:02] <darksider> right?
[12:02] <RoyK> darksider: setup a netconsole first
[12:02] <darksider> Ok
[12:42] <RoyK> darksider: found anything_
[12:42] <RoyK> ?
[12:53] <darksider> RoyK: just finished memory test: no errors
[12:53] <darksider> about to setup the netconsole
[13:00] <darksider> RoyK: In the tutorial, it points to modifying menu.lst, which I dont have, instead I should probably edit /boot/default/grub.cfg
[13:00] <darksider> right?
[13:07] <cfhowlett> darksider, menu.lst is OLD grub.  grub2 uses grub.cfg.  Check your tutorial
[13:08] <darksider> cfhowlett: just saw it, thanks :)
[13:28] <RoyK> darksider: got the netconsole running?
[13:29] <darksider> yes
[13:31] <RoyK> nice
[13:31] <RoyK> then try to reproduce
[13:31] <darksider> done :)
[13:31] <RoyK> any output on the netconsole?
[13:32] <darksider> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8122486/
[13:32] <RoyK> hm... so no panic?
[13:32] <darksider> seems like it
[13:34] <darksider> what now? :)
[13:40] <RoyK> darksider: no idea, really, but guess the issue is related to cifs
[13:40] <RoyK> darksider: which kernel?
[13:45] <darksider> Linux mediaserver 3.13.0-34-generic #60-Ubuntu
[13:47] <RoyK> darksider: sorry - no idea :(
[13:48] <darksider> RoyK: thank you for your help. It was worth trying it
[13:49] <RoyK> darksider: maybe there's a flag for debugging kernel...
[13:51] <RoyK> http://www.debian-administration.org/article/492/Debugging_system_freezes
[13:51] <RoyK> when the system freezes, can you use magic sysrq?
[13:51] <RoyK> https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Linux_Guide/Freezes#Alt.2BSysRq
[14:12] <RoyK> darksider: ?
[14:13] <RoyK> darksider: also - does it freeze indefinetely, or just for a short time?
[14:14] <darksider> sorry, was awk: trying to freeze it again. It freezes until reboot
[14:23] <RoyK> darksider: back in 20min
[14:23] <darksider> ok
[14:42] <darksider> RoyK: dosnt respond to magic key commands
[14:43] <RoyK> hm
[14:43] <RoyK> does it respond to them while the server's running?
[14:43] <RoyK> before freeze?
[14:44] <darksider> havent tried, im gonna try installing a usb hdd and try to write the torrent there
[14:44] <darksider> see if it still freezes. This way i'll know if its the CIFS
[14:44] <RoyK> mhm
[14:46] <darksider> btw, now that i inserted a new disk, the old usb one is sdc (instead of sdb), which spoils my mounts, is there any way to avoid this?
[15:32] <RoyK> darksider: any luck?
[17:59] <Farva> hello everyone
[17:59] <Farva> so I am having a DNS issue
[18:00] <Farva> we can connect to our server through the system IP and stay connected for days, but when we try to connect through the vIP's or by pointing a DNS at any of the IP's (virtual or system) we time out in a minute or two
[18:01] <Farva> when I nslookup those DNS address' they are reporting a server I have not defined through cloudfare
[18:09] <Patrickdk> well, don't use cloudfare then?
[18:17] <Farva> I don't think cloudfare is the problem here, I have been using them for a year with no issues like this
[18:18] <Farva> I think it is something on my server machine that I have configured incorrectly
[18:19] <dasjoe> Farva: check your /etc/hosts, it could contain a stale reference to that hostname
[18:19] <Farva> k
[18:20] <Farva> its empty
[20:46] <zetheroo1> I need to get rid of some erroneous entries in resolv.conf - how should I go about this?
