[00:00] <jvwjgames> Hi how do i make a python program continue to run even after i close the console
[00:01] <sarnold> jvwjgames: a few ways, use screen or tmux if you want to come back to it later, perhaps from another terminal or ssh/mosh session
[00:02] <sarnold> jvwjgames: you could use nohup /path/to/program.py &  -- which willbackgronud it and tell it to ignore the HUP signal that would be sent to it when the shell dies
[00:02] <jvwjgames> ok
[00:02] <sarnold> jvwjgames: you could convert the program to run as a daemon, thuogh that takes some real work
[00:03] <sarnold> jvwjgames: or youj could run it via cron or upstart or something
[00:04] <jvwjgames> ok
[00:04] <jvwjgames> cause it is an irc bot used only for my irc server i have hosted on my servers
[00:07] <jvwjgames> and it is annoying to see the irc bot on the channel then i close the shell and then have it say jvwjgames-bot (~willie@127.0.0.1) has quit IRC (Quit: bye.)
[00:11] <sarnold> jvwjgames: since it's a service you want running all the time, I'd suggest the upstart job then :)
[00:11] <sarnold> http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/
[00:13] <dasjoe> I'd probably just launch it in a tmux, or simply nohup it
[00:16] <jvwjgames> hmm
[00:17] <jvwjgames> i installed willie but can't find it
[00:17] <jvwjgames> and yes i used locate but no resultes
[00:18] <sarnold> locate's database is only updated at 4am or something uless you run a manual updatedb ...
[00:18] <sarnold> if you installed willie via dpkg, dpkg -S willie ought to help
[00:19] <jvwjgames> found it thanks
[00:20] <jvwjgames> but i looked in the directory that it siad it was in but it is not there but i can still access it
[00:20] <jvwjgames> it might be because it is .willie
[00:20] <sarnold> ls -a
[00:22] <jvwjgames> is there a way to use nohup but run it as a non root user
[00:23] <jvwjgames> Error: Do not run Willie with root privileges.
[00:24] <sarnold> jvwjgames: nohup writes the output from the command you run to a file named nohup.out in the current working directory
[00:24] <jvwjgames> ok
[00:24] <sarnold> jvwjgames: so you need to either (a) fix the ermissions in the current working directory or (b) change the current working directory to where you want the log written and permissions will make sense
[00:25] <jvwjgames> ok
[00:25] <jvwjgames> also with nohup will it also ignore crt +c
[00:26] <sarnold> right, the process is no longer attached to a terminal
[00:28] <jvwjgames> hmm well it didn't work
[00:30] <jvwjgames>  nevermind fixed it
[00:34] <jvwjgames> sarnold: can i pm you
[00:35] <sarnold> jvwjgames: I'm leaving in about five minutes.. channel would be best, that waysomeone else can pick up when I leave
[00:35] <jvwjgames> ok
[00:35] <jvwjgames> i was going to have you connect to my irc server really quick but i can do it later
[00:38] <sarnold> aha :) good luck testing it jvwjgames :)
[00:39] <jvwjgames> is there a way to make a user have write privlages on a dir that is already owned by root
[01:31] <jvwjgames> hmm i need help with something else
[01:31] <jvwjgames> qwebirc requires twisted (at least 8.2.0), see http://twistedmatrix.com/

[03:37] <Power_Super> Hi on a server lets say one of the cgi scripts uses a csv file to read / write some data, where should this csv file be
[03:37] <Power_Super> in the same place as the index.html etc or in cgi-bin
[03:37] <jvwjgames> sarnold: you there]
[04:03] <delinquentme> at current /mnt is owned only by root ... will it mess things up if I add additional users who can write to this ?
[05:51] <neosilver-gk> hallo
[05:57] <neosilver-gk> I've get a problem with my Teamspeak 3 movement to a new vServer. The installation was fine and without any error, but ca. 25 minutes after starting the server it crashes and write just a small error in the apport.log .
[08:57] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:28] <Exagone313> Hello, I try to install "awesome" on Ubuntu server. First, I installed the package awesome, and after reboot I had a tty. So I installed lightdm, reboot, and I see the GUI of Unity connection, and when I write my password, it says "failed to start session". Also, I've a resolution problem that I didn't have before installing lightdm, both on tty and lightdm interface. My screen is like...
[09:28] <Exagone313> ..."zoomed". What can I do? Thanks for helping.
[09:33] <lordievader> Blegh, a gui on a server.
[09:33] <lordievader> Exagone313: Anyhow, what videocard/driver do you use?
[09:34] <Exagone313> it's not a server
[09:34] <lordievader> Exagone313: Then I suppose your question is more fruitfull in #ubuntu.
[09:34] <Exagone313> AMD RADEON HD 6450	
[09:35] <Exagone313> and the processor is an i3
[09:35] <Exagone313> they sent me here
[09:36] <lordievader> That is odd. Server guys hang around in here. They usually dislike desktops...
[09:36] <lordievader> Exagone313: What driver are you running though?
[09:36] <Exagone313> the default one
[09:37] <Exagone313> it's a fresh install
[09:37] <Exagone313> I just installed awesome and lightdm packages
[09:37] <Exagone313> I restart, I remove lightdm to install only lightdm-gtk-greeter, maybe it will work
[09:37] <lordievader> Exagone313: You do get lightdm?
[09:38] <Exagone313> it appears, yes, but I can't log in it
[09:38] <Exagone313> within it
[09:38] <Exagone313> "failed to start session"
[09:38] <lordievader> Right, that is a Unity problem (or lightdm). Really has nothing to do with Ubuntu Server.
[09:39] <Exagone313> I don't want to install unity, that's the point
[09:39] <lordievader> And since I know nothing about Unity I cannot help you.
[09:39] <Exagone313> I want to install awesome
[09:39] <lordievader> Then it is a problem there. Still not with Ubuntu Server.
[09:39] <lordievader> For a hint on the problem, check the logs.
[12:13] <nszceta> what do you guys use to host personal repositories of your own custom packages?
[12:14] <nszceta> ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Personal
[17:06] <jvwjgames> sarnold: Hi how are you
[22:43] <Crossfire0mega> anyone know anything about Ubuntu MAAS server?
