| TJ- | linuxgeek_: qemu and kvm projects merged; kvm package is just virtual now | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| linuxgeek_ | ah cool TJ- | 00:02 |
| TJ- | linuxgeek_: kvm only maintained a separate userspace whilst qemu didn't support the Kernel Virtual Machine | 00:03 |
| hallyn | sarnold: and what version of qemu are you running? | 00:03 |
| hallyn | rharper: ^ dunno if you're keeping track | 00:03 |
| hallyn | so on trusty, qrt gives no failures. build utopic's libvirt on trusty, 1 failure. built utopic's virtinst, 2 failures. | 00:04 |
| hallyn | got a few more to track down | 00:04 |
| sarnold | linuxgeek_: yikes, note 13.10 reached the end of its life in july | 00:06 |
| Patrickdk | heh? stay on a security updated branch? what? :) | 00:07 |
| sarnold | hallyn: 2.0.0+dfsg-2ubuntu1.2 | 00:07 |
| hallyn | oh, was hoping you were using one of the bisect kernels | 00:08 |
| hallyn | uh, qemus | 00:08 |

| pixels | When trying to run "sudo apt-get install git-core" I get this error "E: Package 'git-core' has no installation candidate", help, please? | 00:27 |
| pixels | I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS | 00:28 |
| sarnold | pixels: juju-core is only available in a PPA for 12.04 LTS | 00:28 |
| pixels | juju-core? | 00:28 |
| sarnold | sigh | 00:28 |
| sarnold | pixels: don't mind me, it's obvious I shouldn't be ehind a keyboard any longer | 00:29 |
| pixels | also add-apt-repository gives me a command not found | 00:29 |
| sarnold | pixels: try apt-get update && apt-get install git-core -- perhaps your lists just need refreshing | 00:30 |
| pixels | getting a ton of Hash Sum mismatch | 00:31 |
| pixels | and it still doesn't work | 00:32 |
| sarnold | pixels: which mirror did you get? perhaps it is broken .. | 00:32 |
| pixels | us.archive.ubuntu.com | 00:33 |
| sarnold | pixels: try sudo netstat -tnp | grep TIME_WAIT -- perhaps you can find which IP address was used | 00:34 |
| sarnold | if none look right or if they've moved out, try the apt-get update again | 00:35 |
| sarnold | pixels: .. and check dmesg to make sure you're not getting hard drive errors. that can happen. | 00:35 |
| TJ- | pixels: Is your system behind a captive portal? | 00:35 |
| pixels | sarnold: doesn't show anything | 00:36 |
| pixels | and i'm using a VM | 00:36 |
| sarnold | pixels: okay, re-run the apt-get update and while it's running, check netstat -tnp | grep http | 00:37 |
| pixels | how would i go about that? | 00:38 |
| pixels | i'm using a linux host so ctrl-alt-f2 won't work | 00:38 |
| Patrickdk | heh? what does control-alt-f2 do? | 00:39 |
| pixels | switches to a different tty | 00:39 |
| Patrickdk | no | 00:39 |
| Patrickdk | alt-f2/alt-f3/... | 00:39 |
| sarnold | pixels: screen or tmux are handy | 00:39 |
| pixels | Patrickdk: what | 00:40 |
| pixels | can you be a little more clear | 00:40 |
| Patrickdk | control is never used to switch tty's | 00:40 |
| Patrickdk | or really, vty's | 00:41 |
| pixels | it's what i use | 00:41 |
| sarnold | the control is only necessary if you're running X, which is usually unlikely on servers :) | 00:41 |
| pixels | ah i see | 00:42 |
| pixels | 91.189.91.13 91.189.88.153 | 00:44 |
| sarnold | thanks | 00:46 |
| pixels | also i figured out where i can get a zip file for the git repo but i'm still willing to troubleshoot | 00:46 |
| sarnold | pixels: okay, probably the 'best' thing to do is add some new repositorys to your APT configuration, hopefully another mirror will work alright | 00:48 |
| * Patrickdk wonders | 00:50 | |
| * Patrickdk just found fiberstore | 00:50 | |
| sarnold | pixels: try adding a new file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/temporary.list http://paste.ubuntu.com/8254869/ | 00:50 |
| Patrickdk | had the spf+ I needed, and they are a pain to track down | 00:50 |
| Patrickdk | ordered some cables too, see how they work | 00:50 |

| psih0man | hello! I have a deployable ubuntu-server 14.04 image for servers and it contains a fstab entry that doesn't exist on all systems (and I used "nofail" as mount option), so upstart prompts me to type S to mark all filesystems as mounted. how do I tell upstart to skip the fstab entry if the device does not exist? | 10:45 |
| cynicallemon | psih0man: why not just get rid of the rogue entry on the affected server? | 10:49 |
| psih0man | because I don't ant to | 10:50 |
| psih0man | because I don't want to | 10:50 |
| psih0man | I want it skipped | 10:50 |
| lordievader | psih0man: Give it the option noauto? | 10:51 |
| psih0man | cynicallemon: it's not just one server and I don't wat to customise the image for each and every case | 10:51 |
| psih0man | lordievader: on systems that have the device, I want it mounted automatically | 10:52 |
| cfhowlett | psih0man, sounds legit ... | 10:52 |
| psih0man | the entry is "LABEL=ext-array1 /ext-array auto nofail 0 2 | 10:53 |
| psih0man | " | 10:53 |
| psih0man | the entry is "LABEL=ext-array1 /ext-array1 auto nofail 0 2" | 10:53 |
| cynicallemon | psih0man: why not deploy the image then ssh into the server and delete entry - unless you have a thousand servers that is | 10:53 |
| psih0man | cynicallemon: and if I have thousends of servers what do I do? | 10:54 |
| cynicallemon | psih0man: do you? | 10:54 |
| psih0man | cynicallemon: I do | 10:54 |
| psih0man | that's why I administer servers not a desktop :) | 10:55 |
| cynicallemon | then you should be looking at something like puppet maybe | 10:55 |
| psih0man | cynicallemon: and what should I tell puppet? that I have some servers that need some custom setting? why doesn't upstart honor nofail? | 10:56 |
| psih0man | it's my decision that it should not fail on error | 10:57 |
| psih0man | I already use puppet | 10:57 |
| cynicallemon | psih0man: you should be asking the devs, not me | 10:57 |
| psih0man | but puppet-ing something looks like a hack around a bug | 10:57 |
| cynicallemon | well upstart will be making way for systemd before long so you may have to find an alternative way anyway | 11:00 |
| rbasak | psih0man: I think that upstart can't really tell the difference between the device not existing, and the device not having been hotplugged yet. | 11:01 |
| rbasak | psih0man: an alternative might be to make it noauto, and to set up a separate upstart job to mount it on "hotplug". | 11:01 |
| rbasak | This assumes that you don't need it to boot. | 11:01 |
| theToastIsDone | howdy everyone.. got some rkhunter questions... i just got a coupleof messages that are just oneliners that said the following: "Please inspect this machine, because it may be infected." | 12:58 |
| theToastIsDone | also, I have tripwire installed on my server.. I've gotten a number of different files added as of late.. I do remember update and upgrading, so that may have something to do with it.. I guess, where do i start when it comes to fixing up all of this? | 12:59 |
| ivoks | then, inspect it :) | 13:01 |
| theToastIsDone | do you know where the rkhunter logs are by chance? | 13:01 |
| cfhowlett | theToastIsDone, you seem to be reading this as "something is brokeded!" If rkhunter had detected a threat, that alert would have been quite explicit. | 13:05 |
| theToastIsDone | ah ok, sounds about right, cause there doesn't seem to be any problems | 13:05 |
| theToastIsDone | i appreciate it | 13:05 |
| ppetraki | psih0man, you might be able to use autofs. http://linuxconfig.org/automatically-mount-usb-external-drive-with-autofs. when the device is detected it's the same sort of hotplug event as inserting a usb drive | 13:15 |
| psih0man | ppetraki: that might be a good idea -- thanks | 13:18 |
| ppetraki | psih0man, udev will devine the fslabel from the udev helpers, just run it in debug mode or whatever to profile the device and adjust the example accordingly | 13:19 |
| ppetraki | s/devine/divine : drinks turboshot | 13:20 |
| psih0man | ppetraki: I was thinking of creating an upstart service (which is not a good idea since Ubuntu will be moving to systemd) to mount things at the end of the boot process. over fstab, a script has the advantage of being able to treat errors and conditional execution of mounts (a Turing complete fstab, if you like) | 13:21 |
| psih0man | ppetraki: but autofs seems to be a ready to use solution | 13:22 |
| ppetraki | psih0man, yeah autofs is one of those "oh that's there" features that people forget about until you need something slick. Like I'm using it to automount an sshfs on a development node, so it forwards my build sandbox to the node in question automagicaly | 13:25 |
| ppetraki | psih0man, and it looks like systemd is integrating it, surprise | 13:25 |
| psih0man | ppetraki: yeah... systemd is integrating everything :) I was reading a lot of flame wars on this topic lately - but I don't have yet a position about the issue. I tend to agree with Lennart. thus, a minimal Linux instalation will consist of only 2 projects: the kernel and systemd. it'll look more like FreeBSD's minimal system where all system essential components are closely bouded together and additional programs are not part of the base system | 13:30 |

| weeb1e | Nothing more annoying than a box which ignores CPU power governers | 14:08 |
| weeb1e | and now I have two such boxes :| | 14:08 |
| weeb1e | Dell hardware is absolutely terrible | 14:08 |
| weeb1e | I will never buy anything Dell, as long as I live | 14:08 |
| psih0man | weeb1e: you can select in its firmware setup "Active power management" or "OS power management" instead if "Maximum performance" which is the default | 14:09 |
| psih0man | defaults are never good | 14:09 |
| weeb1e | psih0man: All of those have been tried, nothing can stop the CPU scaling down | 14:09 |
| weeb1e | No matter what, the CPU scales down to 1.6ghz and screws up my real-time services | 14:10 |
| psih0man | ah: you mean you want your CPU to always be at full speed | 14:10 |
| weeb1e | Indeed | 14:10 |
| psih0man | I was thinking it's the opposite | 14:10 |
| weeb1e | OS power management + any governor, including userspace with a set frequency for each core, is completely ignored | 14:11 |
| weeb1e | and the cores continue to scale down to 1.6ghz on both these boxes | 14:11 |
| weeb1e | Yet all my other boxes work perfectly with a simple performance governor set | 14:11 |
| psih0man | what happens if you select "maximum performance" in firmware Setup | 14:11 |
| weeb1e | It continues to scale down | 14:12 |
| weeb1e | and the bios firmware is the latest | 14:12 |
| psih0man | weird... | 14:12 |
| dasjoe | weeb1e: how's the CPU's temp? | 14:13 |
| LucidGuy | Alright, what do you guys think has gone wrong here, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8259769/ | 14:13 |
| weeb1e | dasjoe: Fine, this is not CPU throttling | 14:13 |
| weeb1e | I can run cpuburn 8 times, and max out all 8 physical cores, with extra turbo boost speed without any thermal throttling | 14:13 |
| weeb1e | So the only conclusion is, Dell hard coded their bios firmware to ignore all options and software configuration, and simply scale down no matter what | 14:15 |
| weeb1e | and I was lucky enough to get two identical boxes which have this issue | 14:15 |
| dasjoe | weeb1e: try adding "processor.ignore_ppc=1" to your kernel command line, it should make the kernel ignore your BIOS's requests | 14:17 |
| psih0man | weeb1e: "placebo configuration options": http://www.psmag.com/navigation/nature-and-technology/technology-deception-elevator-crosswalk-programming-robots-lie-89669/ | 14:17 |
| dasjoe | You can try it by "echo 1 > /sys/module/processor/parameters/ignore_ppc" | 14:17 |
| weeb1e | I'll try that now | 14:18 |
| weeb1e | dasjoe: Does not help | 14:21 |
| weeb1e | I've ever written a custom script to force the kernel to not allow the CPU to enter C states higher than C1 | 14:23 |
| weeb1e | But the scaling still causes a noticable performance hit | 14:23 |
| weeb1e | Without the ability to stop scaling, these boxes are essentially very expensive 1.6Ghz netbooks | 14:27 |
| rberg_ | weeb1e: have you tried setting the min speed to the max speed? or does it ignore that as well | 14:32 |
| weeb1e | rberg_: Of course, it ignores every possible option of configuration | 14:32 |
| pixels | have you tried complaining to dell | 14:33 |
| weeb1e | The hardware is out of warranty | 14:35 |
| dasjoe | weeb1e: Could be weird DSDT stuff, I'd try various settings for acpi_os_name or acpi_osi | 14:36 |
| weeb1e | I have no idea about DSDT, but I will do some research when I get a chance | 14:37 |
| dasjoe | weeb1e: the arch wiki has some information: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DSDT | 14:39 |
| weeb1e | Compiling a custom kernel for a box I don't have physical access to, would be quite a pain | 14:41 |
| weeb1e | Due to the infrastructure hosting these two boxes, I cannot get remote hardware access | 14:42 |
| weeb1e | and of course, this may not end up helping at all anyway | 14:42 |

| ppetraki | LucidGuy, looks like you're (xfs) getting pushed out by page cleanup | 15:34 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, you didn't do a bunch of fs stuff and then type 'sync' did you? | 15:34 |
| LucidGuy | ppetraki, I did not. | 15:36 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, looks like memory pressure in one form or another, I'd have to look at what kswapd is doing to give a more informed answer. short answer is competition for free pages == lockup | 15:40 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, buggable, if you can reproduce it | 15:40 |
| LucidGuy | ppetraki, I can't, this filesystem has been plagued by xfs/nfs instability for years. Its an NFS server exporting my users home dirs. I gave up awhile back and picked up a new server with a newer version of the OS, transferred the data, setup nfs etc .. and now this server is unstable. grrrrrrrr | 15:42 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, so you still have the old server around to reproduce the issue with? | 15:44 |
| LucidGuy | ppetraki, the old is in production doing something else. I was never able to reproduce the issue | 15:45 |

| weeb1e | Anyone know how I can purge mysql from a system if it still says 'Unable to set password for the MySQL "root" user' when attempting to install it? | 17:07 |
| weeb1e | I have tried a few times now, and the following is not sufficient to fix this issue: apt-get -f install; apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common libdbd-mysql-perl libmysqlclient18:amd64 mysql-client-5.5 mysql-client-core-5.5 mysql-common mysql-server-core-5.5; apt-get autoremove; apt-get autoclean; rm -rf /var/lib/mysql | 17:09 |
| LucidGuy | ppetraki, any other ideas? | 17:10 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, play with your dirty pages ratio http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-kernel-tuning-virtual-memory-subsystem/ | 17:11 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, basically keep everything in ram as much as possible | 17:12 |
| ppetraki | LucidGuy, and I hope you have a RAID with a WB cache because individual drives are going to be stupid wrt caching | 17:12 |
| weeb1e | I finally found a solution, after so many "solutions" which did not help at all. If anyone ever has that issue, you need to use: echo "exit 0" >> /etc/init.d/mysql; dpkg --configure -a; dpkg --configure -a | 17:13 |
| weeb1e | Or not, it's still broken | 17:19 |
| weeb1e | Wow, if I had physical access I would have formatted the box by now | 17:19 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: What is exactly the problem? | 17:19 |
| weeb1e | It's a brand new box, which I just started installing base dependencies on, the mysql install failed half way through due to a typo in the repeated password, combined with stdin being piped to /dev/null | 17:20 |
| weeb1e | Now everytime I try to install mysql, it says 'Unable to set password for the MySQL "root" user' | 17:21 |
| weeb1e | No matter what I do, I cannot purge the system of whatever is storing the bad state | 17:21 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server | 17:22 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: dpkg-reconfigure: mysql-server is broken or not fully installed | 17:23 |
| teward | weeb1e, sudo apt-get purge mysql-server; sudo apt-get install mysql-server | 17:24 |
| teward | assuming it's never been cofnigured with data *maybe* purging the cnfigs with the remove would work | 17:24 |
| weeb1e | teward: Please read up slightly, to where I showed everything I tried to purge | 17:24 |
| teward | weeb1e, there's nothing for me to read up on, client doesn't have scrollbac | 17:25 |
| weeb1e | apt-get -f install; apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common libdbd-mysql-perl libmysqlclient18:amd64 mysql-client-5.5 mysql-client-core-5.5 mysql-common mysql-server-core-5.5; apt-get autoremove; apt-get autoclean; rm -rf /var/lib/mysql | 17:25 |

| hallyn | zul: ok so hold back on that libvirt, bc it most definately breaks qrt. | 17:25 |

| hallyn | could be just a mismatch of bindings to libvirt, still not sure | 17:26 |
| hallyn | man am i gonna have to bisect? with libvirt? | 17:26 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Still, run what teward said. | 17:27 |
| teward | weeb1e, or if you really want to mess around with it, use dpkg instead of apt to purge those packages (suggestion based on http://askubuntu.com/questions/253023/unable-to-set-password-for-the-mysql-root-user) | 17:27 |
| weeb1e | Sorry, I think I forgot "apt-get purge" from that list of commands I tried, I tried that too, and now tried it again, and it definitely does not help | 17:28 |
| weeb1e | teward: I really don't have a choice but to "mess around with it" | 17:28 |
| weeb1e | mysql is one of a ton of dependencies I need to install | 17:28 |
| weeb1e | teward: I have tried 10 different "solutions" to that error | 17:29 |
| weeb1e | None of which work | 17:29 |
| weeb1e | I've searched the hard drive for anything with mysql in its name too | 17:29 |
| weeb1e | I am completely out of ideas here | 17:29 |
| weeb1e | Like I said, at this point, it would be faster to format and reinstall ubuntu, but I don't have physical access | 17:30 |
| weeb1e | I can't believe, that of all things, installing mysql is causing an issue | 17:30 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Could you pastebin the full output of "sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-core-5.5"? | 17:31 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: I already pasted it to you | 17:31 |
| weeb1e | That was it | 17:31 |
| weeb1e | The full output, there is nothing else | 17:31 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Hmm, "sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-server-5.5 mysql-server-core-5.5" | 17:33 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: I just tried running "apt-get purge" on that full list of mysql-related packages I mentioned above and still no change | 17:35 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Compare the list I gave with yours. Mysql-server-5.5 was missing from yours ;) | 17:36 |
| hallyn | hm, maybe i'ts just this umask buglet | 17:37 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: Just tried again with that versioned package (which I assume mysql-server resolves to anyway), no change | 17:38 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Are they all purged? | 17:39 |
| weeb1e | `dpkg --get-selections | grep mysql` outputs nothing, so I assume so | 17:40 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Ok, navigate to /var/cache/apt/archives, locate mysql-server-core-5.5 and install that using dpkg. And please pastebin the full output. | 17:42 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: No errors from `dpkg -i mysql-server-core-5.5_5.5.38-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb` | 17:43 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: http://pastebin.com/AtccZNXL | 17:43 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Ok, next step do the same for mysql-server-5.5 | 17:44 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: mysql-server-5.5 pre-depends on mysql-common | 17:46 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Install that one first then. | 17:46 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: Same password error, console output: http://pastebin.com/3uLd4E9f | 17:48 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Where do you see a password error? I see that mysql-client-5.5 is not installed: sudo apt-get install -f | 17:49 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: On the ncurses mysql installer UI | 17:50 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: You do get the option of setting a password? | 17:50 |
| weeb1e | Yes, after the second repeated entry of the password, it goes back to console for a split second and then returns to the mysql installer screen with the error message | 17:51 |
| weeb1e | Unable to set password for the MySQL "root" user | 17:51 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: So you enter the password twice? | 17:54 |
| weeb1e | Yes | 17:54 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: Does the mysql error log state anything? | 17:55 |
| Elia | hi | 17:59 |

| IanMalcolm | hey guys, is the spamassassin corpus (https://spamassassin.apache.org/publiccorpus/) the best corpus to train my dspam? | 18:00 |
| IanMalcolm | I'm also looking for ham / spam corpus in Portuguese. Is there such a thing? | 18:01 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: As I figured you have the same error "Can't create/write to file '/tmp/#sql_5e7d_0.MYI'" | 18:01 |
| lordievader | weeb1e: See the answer of green7: http://askubuntu.com/questions/253023/unable-to-set-password-for-the-mysql-root-user | 18:02 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: I tried that hours ago, but let me give it another go, in case I missed something | 18:03 |
| weeb1e | Oh wait, green7, I missed that answer completely | 18:04 |
| weeb1e | lordievader: That does indeed seem to have solved it, even if I looked at the mysql log sooner, I would never have imagined that /tmp's permissions were messed up | 18:06 |
| weeb1e | I'd love to know what they did to this clean install, before handing the box over to me :( | 18:06 |
| streulma | this is the second time I setup a 14.04 server at hosting provider from self build image. | 18:47 |
| streulma | 20gb / 79GB /srv 1gb swap /usr mounted on /srv/usr and var also | 18:47 |
| streulma | there is a script while backing up that removes all tars zips and gzs | 18:49 |
| === RiotBlasto_ is now known as RiotBlasto | ||
| Pici | streulma: is there a question in there? | 18:56 |
| streulma | no just to let you know | 18:56 |
| streulma | or | 18:56 |
| streulma | yes | 18:56 |
| streulma | how can avoid this that tars and zips are removed ? | 18:56 |
| streulma | all data is on srv | 18:56 |
| streulma | so backed up to home :) | 18:56 |
| ikonia | ?? | 18:56 |
| streulma | what ikonia ? | 18:57 |
| ikonia | I don't understand what your question is | 18:57 |
| Pici | Stop doing whatever you are doing that is removing the tars and zips. | 19:02 |
| miceiken | How do I remove password of a user, and make sure they can't be used remotely? | 21:49 |
| TJ- | miceiken: "man passwd" see "--delete" | 22:10 |

| bananapie | I have a variable A that contains the value 'COUNT', I want to set the variable $COUNT to 5. I tried $$A=5, but it doesn't work. | 23:24 |
| bananapie | Can I do this ? | 23:24 |
| sarnold | bananapie: it depends upon the language you're using | 23:25 |
| bananapie | bash* | 23:25 |
| sarnold | bananapie: and that sounds like a terrifying thing to do :) | 23:25 |
| sarnold | bananapie: try ${${A}}=5 | 23:26 |
| bananapie | I am writing a link monitoring script, and I want to use bash functions. I can't pass variables by reference | 23:26 |
| bananapie | it's telling me that it's bad substition | 23:26 |
| sarnold | bananapie: try: B=${A} ; ${B}=5 ? | 23:27 |
| bananapie | yea, I tried that. Trouble is, it tries to execute the value of ${B}. | 23:29 |
| bananapie | If there is no obvious way to do it, I am probably doing this wrong, so I'll try something else. | 23:30 |
| bananapie | tahnks | 23:30 |
| bananapie | ok, I have to use eval :( | 23:33 |
