[06:13] <lordievader> Good morning.
[07:17] <sonofanoob> hey guys, there is something weird in my dmesg, no obvious consequences on practice so far, but still i decided to show it since i have some free time currently http://paste.ubuntu.com/10251582/
[07:18] <sonofanoob> should i be worried?
[07:28] <sonofanoob> i guess this one is similar http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8135
[10:05] <wiehan> what is the easiest and safest way to host local website on the local network only which only points to various other webUI such as plex and deluge?
[15:01] <skylite> I enabled logging in sudo by putting Defaults    log_output in visudo but I cant turn off logging for one user. I tried: Defaults:theuser   !log_output but it doesnt help. Any ideas?
[15:07] <White_Cat> hi
[15:07] <White_Cat> I am trying to solve a efi issue
[15:07] <White_Cat> I am trying to convert my legacy boot to efi
[15:07] <White_Cat> as for whatever the reason legacy isnt detecting single drives :(
[15:08] <White_Cat> on uefi boot, I end up with the grub prompt
[15:08] <bekks> Do your drives have a GPT label?
[15:08] <White_Cat> this is on an ubuntu-server 14.04
[15:08] <White_Cat> ywa
[15:08] <White_Cat> *yes
[15:08] <White_Cat> its a raid 5
[15:09] <bekks> You cannot boot from a RAID5.
[15:09] <White_Cat> its hardware raid
[15:09] <White_Cat> I am able to boot with legacy
[15:10] <bekks> So does your single volume presented by the raid controller has a GPT label?
[15:10] <White_Cat> yeah
[15:10] <White_Cat> and I can see folders with grub ls
[15:10] <bekks> Did you create an UEFI boot partition, too?
[15:10] <White_Cat> yes
[15:10] <White_Cat> let me link the documentaion I used
[15:10] <bekks> Formatted as FAT32?
[15:11] <White_Cat> http://askubuntu.com/questions/509423/which-commands-to-convert-a-ubuntu-bios-install-to-efi-uefi-without-boot-repair
[15:11] <White_Cat> let me also link to my drive config
[15:11] <White_Cat> http://pastebin.com/eJXKC61Q
[15:11] <White_Cat> those are my partitions
[15:12] <White_Cat> I am currently on live cd, I can boot as grub command prompt
[15:17] <White_Cat> any suggestions
[15:20] <White_Cat> I really am confused by this
[15:21] <White_Cat> one possibility is that the config isnt configured properly
[15:25] <bekks> Did you try the commands as suggested in the answer in the link you posted?
[15:25] <bekks> What exactly happens when you do?
[15:29] <White_Cat> they work
[15:29] <White_Cat> but when I reboot I end up with a grub prompt
[15:29] <White_Cat> I dont even get the error they mention
[15:32] <bekks> So whats the entire output of that grub-install command?
[15:32] <White_Cat> oh I didnt save that
[15:32] <White_Cat> its fairly long
[15:32] <White_Cat> it ends up saying it was completed sucessfully
[15:33] <bekks> Please provide that output.
[15:33] <White_Cat> I am rebooting
[15:34] <White_Cat> I will re run the command
[15:34] <White_Cat> is there an ways way to pastebin that?
[15:35] <White_Cat> update-grub makes it so that computer is non-bootable and it reboots instead of grub prompt
[15:36] <White_Cat> it takes forever to boot
[15:39] <White_Cat> yeah rebooted
[15:39] <White_Cat> it got stuck
[15:39] <White_Cat> this is very frustrating
[15:39] <Prezident> Stuck where?
[15:39] <Prezident> In grub menu?
[15:40] <White_Cat> no in preboot bios
[15:40] <White_Cat> it does that
[15:40] <bekks> Whats "preboot bios"?
[15:40] <White_Cat> doesnt matter, it passed it now
[15:40] <Prezident> White_Cat: are you sure you booting right disk?
[15:40] <Prezident> ok
[15:40] <Prezident> And now?
[15:40] <White_Cat> there is one disk
[15:40] <White_Cat> and one flashdisk
[15:40] <White_Cat> waiting for the boot menu
[15:41] <White_Cat> so that I can select the usb flashdrive
[15:41] <Prezident> grub menu you meant?
[15:41] <Prezident> Ah.
[15:41] <White_Cat> If I had my way I'd stab it
[15:44] <White_Cat> its a log that goes many pages
[15:44] <White_Cat> bekks how do you propose I post it?
[15:45] <bekks> Actually thats up to you - you can use the pastebin service of your choice.
[15:46] <White_Cat> yes but buffer filled up
[15:46] <White_Cat> most of it isnt even on the window
[15:46] <jamespage> coreycb, urgh - I just realized why we get odd fallbacks for the new oslo-* packages - dh-python has them encoded!
[15:46] <jamespage> gah!
[15:46] <bekks> Then scroll up in that window :)
[15:46] <White_Cat> command is grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=ubuntu --recheck --no-floppy --debug
[15:46] <White_Cat> bekks its outside of the top part
[15:46] <White_Cat> out of buffer
[15:47] <bekks> Its not thousands of lines, it is still in the buffer :)
[15:47] <White_Cat> its like zillions of grub-install: info: adding a relocation entry for 0x###
[15:47] <White_Cat> its thousands and thousands of lines
[15:48] <White_Cat> maybe its the --debug?
[15:48] <White_Cat> thre is practically no output without the --debug
[15:52] <coreycb> jamespage, hmm
[15:53] <White_Cat> any suggestions?
[15:53] <White_Cat> bekks its very long
[15:53] <jamespage> coreycb, trying to figure out that now
[15:53] <jamespage> coreycb, it appears to be generated a build time I think
[15:53] <White_Cat> its mostly the same line
[15:55] <bekks> White_Cat: So tell us that line...
[15:55] <White_Cat> I already did
[15:55] <White_Cat> zillions of grub-install: info: adding a relocation entry for 0x###
[15:56] <bekks> White_Cat: And you did all the commands shown in the link before?
[15:56] <White_Cat> yes
[15:56] <White_Cat> it completed sucessfully
[15:57] <bekks> White_Cat: I mean, did you run them immediately before running grub-install?
[15:57] <White_Cat> yes
[15:57] <White_Cat> I mount them and bind them etc
[15:57] <White_Cat> grub-install is run under root
[16:00] <Lumia930`> without enabling samba .. possible to configure ubuntu to workgroup ?
[16:01] <White_Cat> bekks any suggestions?
[16:01] <White_Cat> I think I will call it a day if not
[16:01] <White_Cat> I have been working on this since 8 oclock today
[16:01] <White_Cat> I am quite frustrated already :(
[16:01] <bekks> And you still didnt just reinstall that system?
[16:01] <bekks> Wow.
[16:01] <White_Cat> I cant
[16:02] <White_Cat> I dont want to lose data
[16:02] <White_Cat> I cant backup either
[16:02] <Prezident> Why you cant do that?
[16:02] <White_Cat> which is why I am strugling with EFI
[16:02] <White_Cat> because it doesnt detect the damn drives
[16:02] <Lumia930`> whats the possible ways that i can keep my ubuntu server in WORKGROUP ?
[16:02] <White_Cat> I explaineed this like two dozen times today :(
[16:02] <Prezident> Bios find them White_Cat ?
[16:02] <White_Cat> it wont
[16:02] <White_Cat> efi will
[16:02] <Prezident> yeah, but i havent been around since that.
[16:02] <White_Cat> but then ubuntu wont boot
[16:03] <Prezident> So its 1 drive or more?
[16:03] <White_Cat> sorry I am just frustrated at the computer, not you guys :p
[16:03] <White_Cat> its 3 drives on raid 5
[16:03] <White_Cat> one backup drive
[16:03] <White_Cat> and one usb drive serving as live cd
[16:04] <Prezident> its a NAS?
[16:04] <White_Cat> no its a server
[16:04] <White_Cat> an hp proliant gen9
[16:05] <White_Cat> I was forced to rush install things despite my protest
[16:05] <White_Cat> I am trying to recover from this mess
[16:09] <bekks> And why exactly cant you restore your backup?
[16:09] <White_Cat> I dont have a backup
[16:09] <White_Cat> I cannot backup either
[16:09] <bekks> Then you have no data worth to be kept.
[16:09] <White_Cat> because it wont detect drives
[16:09] <bekks> Cleanly install using EFI, done.
[16:09] <White_Cat> I cant
[16:10] <White_Cat> If I could backup I wouldnt bother with efi
[16:10] <White_Cat> I can wipe the entire company data
[16:10] <White_Cat> sure it would get the serve rrunning but I would be at best fired
[16:10] <White_Cat> at worst I would probably be fed to the fishes
[16:14] <bekks> To make things clear - thats a productive server system you broke, without a backup, and messing around with grub for a whole day?
[16:15] <White_Cat> Its semi production
[16:15] <White_Cat> it isnt used by people in the company yet
[16:15] <White_Cat> and no I did not break anything
[16:15] <White_Cat> it can boot fine legacy
[16:15] <White_Cat> but it wont backup or auto boot
[16:16] <White_Cat> I told them to allow me to configure backup first but noooo. they needed it runnign by 1 jan
[16:16] <pmatulis> White_Cat: boot legacy and back up your data?
[16:16] <bekks> I dont see the reason for not reinstalling cleanly.
[16:16] <bekks> pmatulis: That would be too easy.
[16:16] <White_Cat> pmatulis backup to what?
[16:16] <White_Cat> legacy doesnt see backup drive
[16:16] <bekks> White_Cat: To some "backup media"?
[16:16] <White_Cat> I cant
[16:16] <White_Cat> I explain this to you 4 times
[16:16] <pmatulis> White_Cat: how much data are we talking about?
[16:16] <White_Cat> if it detected drives why in blazing hell would I care about efi
[16:17] <White_Cat> I am unsure
[16:17] <White_Cat> probably like 100 gbs
[16:17] <White_Cat> or 200gbs
[16:17] <bekks> Plug in an USB drive an go on.
[16:17] <bekks> *and
[16:17] <pmatulis> White_Cat: or send it over the network?
[16:18] <pmatulis> White_Cat: prolly buying a big enough USB drive would be easiest
[16:20] <White_Cat> why is just telling me how to fix it impossible?
[16:20] <White_Cat> am I really asking for something that complicated
[16:21] <pmatulis> White_Cat: summarize the problem for those newly joined to the party
[16:22] <pmatulis> White_Cat: you installed and...
[16:23] <bekks> pmatulis: Following this advice: http://askubuntu.com/questions/509423/which-commands-to-convert-a-ubuntu-bios-install-to-efi-uefi-without-boot-repair he gets zillions of lines "adding a relocation entry for 0xXXX".
[16:24] <fran_> Hello , I recently install xubuntu on my pc, but when I open firefox, and navigate the system goes slow , like when I watch videos on youtube , it gets slow, and ends " stopping " without responding to any command, only restarting .. that I can do? is the first time you use an operating system other than xp , and I never want to xp ...
[16:24] <pmatulis> fran_: try #xubuntu
[16:25] <pmatulis> fran_: you're in #ubuntu-server
[16:25] <fran_> ohh thanks
[16:29] <pmatulis> bekks: wow, that's messed up.  i would only do that on a system with no important data on it yet
[16:30] <bekks> It's just a semi-productive server with no backup :>
[17:00] <rbasak> jamespage: could you help create a git VCS for bcache-tools in collab-maint, please, and add me and David Mohr (co-maintainer) to it?
[17:00] <rbasak> I'm not sure what I need to do at all here. David couldn't do it.
[17:00] <rbasak> (neither of us are DMs)
[17:00] <jamespage> rbasak, I can but not today and not around tomorrow - is later in the week ok?
[17:01] <rbasak> Sure, no rush
[17:04] <acmehandle> where can I find start up files for a program that runs in services?
[17:05] <bekks> acmehandle: Which service and which Ubuntu? :)
[17:05] <acmehandle> Nevermind, i believe I found it in /etc/init.d/  :-)
[17:09] <jamespage> coreycb, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dh-python/+bug/1422433
[17:09] <jamespage> that's the problem
[17:13] <jamespage> rbasak, had 5 mins - https://alioth.debian.org/projects/collab-maint
[17:13] <jamespage> I can create the repo, but you will both need to join that team to get commit access
[17:17] <rbasak> jamespage: otp, thanks. Will look shortly
[17:46] <zartoosh> hi I am using ubuntu  14.04. Our system is headless, I was wondering if there are any utility that I can open and read html files? thanks
[17:46] <Pici> w3m perhaps?
[17:47] <rbasak> or lynx, or links
[17:47] <rbasak> links is good at tables, compared to lynx
[18:02] <lordievader> elinks \o/
[19:30] <butteredpopcorn> I'm having trouble recognizing my ethernet connection. I've set up a wireless connection but am not sure how to proceed
[19:32] <butteredpopcorn> ifconfig -a doesnt show it, so I assume its a driver problem?
[19:44] <butteredpopcorn> It was a bios settings :P
[19:51] <hadifarnoud> I need help with supervisord
[19:51] <hadifarnoud> my program is not starting. says ERROR: Process camva: abnormal termination
[19:51] <hadifarnoud> Exited too quickly (process log may have details)
[19:51] <hadifarnoud> but there is nothing in the log
[19:53] <zartoosh> Hi does apt-get has dry-run option which could output dependency failures? thanks
[21:02] <darrenf> part
[21:11] <eryuio> hi there
[21:12] <eryuio> i would like to locate the path of this directory : ./demoCA
[21:12] <eryuio> how to read this one : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10261946/
[21:12] <eryuio> ?
[22:08] <ash_m> would automatic security updates kick my server into a "pardon our dust" message?
[22:08] <bekks> ash_m: What do you mean?
[22:09] <guntbert> eryuio: that is a directory under the one where the config file sits
[22:09] <ash_m> bekks: I setup automatic updates and it would seem now my webpage displays a "Pardon our dust... [website] is upgrading. We'll be back in a short while. Sorry for the inconvenience."
[22:09] <ash_m> like, a blank page with this message
[22:10] <bekks> ash_m: I guess you have to investigate whats happening there.
[22:11] <guntbert> ash_m: did you install any web app?
[22:11] <ash_m> guntbert: no
[22:11] <ash_m> the only thing I didn't differently since upgrading was enable automatic updates;
[22:12] <guntbert> ash_m: that message certainly doesn't come from an Ubuntu update - what web server are you running?
[22:13] <ash_m> apache
[22:13] <ash_m> I just tried restarting
[22:13] <ash_m> didn't work
[22:14] <guntbert> ash_m: local machine or hosted service? - that sentence looks like something canned
[22:15] <ash_m> vhost
[22:15] <ash_m> erm
[22:15] <ash_m> vps
[22:16] <guntbert> ash_m: are you certain that the machine is running? can you ping it? do you get the same page when you access it "locally" (via links2 http://localhost)?
[22:18] <ash_m> guntbert: I am not sure how to accomplish what you're telling me... I know the machine is running, I can ssh into it
[22:19] <ash_m> how do you check processes again?
[22:19] <guntbert> ash_m: ok, so question 1 & 2 are answered :-), now use any text based browser (I suggest links2, but lynx is ok too) to see what you get (like I typed before)
[22:20] <guntbert> ash_m: sorry, I have to leave - Good luck!
[22:20] <ash_m> thanks guntbert !
[22:27] <ash_m> I hate how upgrading opened up a can of worms
[22:36] <bekks> VPS? And you are using some kind of administration panel like cPanel, Plesk or something?
[22:40] <ash_m> bekks: oh, no I just ssh into it
[22:41] <ash_m> bekks: or use something like winscp
[22:41] <ash_m> bekks: I think there's something wrong with my .htaccess file or something...
[22:41] <bekks> How do you administer that VPS then, like powering on, etc.?
[22:41] <ash_m> bekks: the site isn't hitting index.php even though it's listed first in the directive
[22:42] <ash_m> bekks: via the VPS provider's shell
[22:42] <bekks> ash_m: Is that cPanel, Plesk or something? :)
[22:44] <ash_m> bekks: no, it's just like ssh to a main server that has restrictions; it's still a terminal but you can service a VPS with it... you can also go through their site, but it just shows charts; DNS configurations, backups, power on/off, etc... it's not like plesk or cpanel
[22:49] <ash_m> why would visiting index.php directly work but not via .htaccess ?
[22:57] <bekks> Because of a broken .htacces due to syntax changes between apache versions.
[22:57] <bekks> Or due to synatx changes due to webapp versions.
