[03:14] <shellox> hi
[03:15] <shellox> I've just installed a ubuntu 14.04 vm and was wondering why the dynamic motd doesn't show the memory usage anymore
[03:15] <shellox> does anyone know the reason behind that?
[03:25] <patdk-lap> doesnt on 12.04 either
[03:27] <shellox> really? i thought it looked like that by default
[03:27] <shellox> https://scotte.github.io/images/dynamic-motd.png
[03:29] <patdk-lap> it's never looked like that for me
[03:31] <shellox> i see thanks
[09:58] <Tobbe82> Hi Everyone, I just want to confirm if i'm in the right channel. I'm currently trying to set up a webserver using Ubuntu Server 14.04 & LAMP and having some issues. Is this the channel were I should ask for help about this issue?
[09:58] <Tobbe82> And Merry Christmas btw ;)
[09:59] <bekks> This is the channel to ask - merry christmas :)
[09:59] <Tobbe82> Excellent :) I will be back later (Time for breakfast noms) :)
[10:00] <lordievader> Tobbe82: What issues are you facing?
[10:01] <Tobbe82> Well I am following a guide and I update /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf     & /etc/apache2/apache2.conf  to reflect my vsftpd priviliages to basically try and set the webserver site folder to my /home/user/www folder from the standard default /var/ folder.
[10:02] <Tobbe82> now with the standard folder I can access the website from the webbrowser.
[10:02] <Tobbe82> when I change it I get an "Access not permitted" issue in the browser
[10:02] <Tobbe82> Is running a webserver from your /home directory disappreciated in Ubuntu server 14.04?
[10:03] <Tobbe82> (I'm guessing there might also be a permission issue but I'm rather new to Ubuntu to troubleshoot myself)
[10:28] <Tobbe82> any ideas on how to fix this?
[10:29] <Tobbe82> gaming4life
[10:29] <Tobbe82> lolz that was wrong chat window
[11:10] <Novice201y> Hello. Where can I find tasks to do as a volunteer Ubuntu sysadmin?
[11:13] <lordievader> Tobbe82: For home dir shares you might want to look into the userdir module: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_userdir.html
[11:18] <Tobbe82> lordievader: thanks I'll look into that :)
[12:39] <esde> merry christmas!
[13:13] <Voyage> Hi
[13:16] <Voyage> I have apache2 but want different users to see different websites. I think pointing apache for each site to a /home/user/www directory would be a good idea, where /home/user is the directory of that user who can view / change site files?. Ok, If I have a site.com at some /home/user1/www and want to point site.com/demo2 to /home/user2/www; is it possible?
[13:18] <patdk-lap> look at using virtualhost
[13:18] <patdk-lap> or maybe hmm, what is that plugin
[13:18] <Voyage> yes, I know
[13:18] <Voyage> is it possible by using virtaul hosts?
[13:18] <patdk-lap> mod_vhost_alias
[13:18] <patdk-lap> heh?
[13:18] <patdk-lap> that is the definition of virtualhost
[13:19] <Voyage> I thought it was only possible for subdomains
[13:19] <Voyage> site.com/dir2      and site.com/dir2  can be of difference places. entirely different I mean
[13:19] <Voyage> ?
[13:19] <patdk-lap> what do subdomains have to do with anything?
[13:20] <Voyage> hm
[13:20] <patdk-lap> apache can only serve websites to ip addresses and hostnames
[16:11] <Voyage>  I am installing a software that requirest json_extention. How can I install it on ubuntu? http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php
[16:24] <Voyage> nevermind ^
[17:09] <kaka> my ubuntu 14.04 x64 server showing 69 packages can be updated  30 updates are security updates
[17:09] <kaka> how to do thsi
[17:09] <kaka> how to do this
[17:10] <kaka> please anyone help me
[17:11] <queeq> This? http://serverfault.com/questions/270260/how-do-you-use-apt-get-to-only-install-critical-security-updates-on-ubuntu
[17:12] <kaka> sorry but i am new in this can you please give command :)
[17:13] <kaka> i read that article before
[17:13] <queeq> Never did it myself, have just duck-duck-go'ed it for you
[17:14] <queeq> As far as I see there's no simple command to install only security updates
[17:16] <queeq> Ah, there's a one-liner in the end of this article: http://kx.cloudingenium.com/linux/ubuntu/install-security-updates-command-line-ubuntu/
[17:16] <queeq> apt-get -s dist-upgrade | grep "^Inst" | grep -i securi | awk -F " " {'print $2'} | xargs apt-get install
[17:18] <RoyK> kaka: or just "apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && apt-get -y autoremove"
[17:18] <RoyK> kaka: you can run those commands (separated by &&) separately if you like, and -y isn't needed for the last two, but I'm lazy
[17:19] <kaka> i find this command somewhere on internet apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[17:19] <kaka> is this right
[17:19] <RoyK> it is
[17:19] <queeq> kaka, it will update everything, not only security updates
[17:20] <RoyK> but I tend to use dist-upgrade
[17:20] <RoyK> kaka: see the apt-get manual to see the difference
[17:20] <kaka> what about this apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade
[17:21] <queeq> overkill
[17:21] <RoyK> kaka: dist-upgrade implies upgrade
[17:21] <queeq> dist-upgrade implies upgrade
[17:21] <queeq> ha
[17:21] <RoyK> :)
[17:21] <queeq> :)
[17:21] <queeq> Has been typing and not reading :D
[17:21] <RoyK> hehe
[17:22] <queeq> I know that theoretically dist-upgrade may cause some troubles. Never faced them though
[17:22] <RoyK> haven't seen it either
[17:22] <RoyK> and I manage a few servers...
[17:28] <kaka> thanks for your help @queeq, @royK
[17:28] <queeq> welcome
[17:31] <JanC> actually, it is often a good idea to do an upgrade before you do a dist-upgrade
[17:32] <RoyK> JanC: how come?
[17:33] <JanC> less likely to get conflicts in dependency solving, I guess?
[17:33] <JanC> in any case, it's what Debian's distro upgrade manual recommends IIRC
[17:34] <RoyK> {{citation-needed}}
[17:34] <JanC> or at least, they did in the past
[17:37] <shauno> I believe they still do.  'citation' would be 4.4.5 in https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrading-full
[17:39] <JanC> """In some cases, doing the full upgrade (as described below) directly might remove large numbers of packages that you will want to keep. We therefore recommend a two-part upgrade process: first a minimal upgrade to overcome these conflicts, then a full upgrade […]"""
[17:40] <RoyK> thanks
[17:45] <JanC> if APT doesn't propose to remove package on dist-upgrade it should be fine to use it immediately
[17:45] <JanC> (and sometimes removing packages is right, of course)
[18:03] <patdk-lap> the only time removing a package matters, is if you installed software not under the control of apt
[18:03] <patdk-lap> like download/compiled/...
[18:04] <patdk-lap> you might remove a dependence for it
[18:21] <patel>  In ubuntu 14.04 x64 server how to run below command as root
[18:21] <patel> apt-get update  apt-get -y upgrade
[18:21] <patdk-lap> sudo
[18:22] <patel> you mean to say sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get -y upgrade
[18:22] <patdk-lap> sure
[18:25] <patel> i use digitalocean with ubuntu 14.04 x64 so how i reboot droplet by command
[18:26] <patdk-lap> ask digitalocean?
[18:29] <patel> thanks @pardk-lap
[22:11] <kris|2> привет!
