[09:15] rbasak: NP, did you get sent the password? [09:17] Daviey: no, I don't see anything. [09:51] Daviey: looks like I'm a list moderator now, but no password :) [09:51] Daviey: thank you for your help. I'll poke IS if don't hear from them. [09:52] rbasak: I *think* IS can just reset it.. I don't have my gpg handy right now - i'll send it to you later today. [09:53] OK, thanks. No worries if not. I'm sure IS can reset it :) [10:11] Hello [10:48] Good afternoon. === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [11:31] afternoon [11:31] Hey RoyK, how are you doing? [11:32] fine, thanks === pgraner-afk is now known as pgraner [14:03] greetings. I'm running a local Ubuntu mirror, using apt-mirror to set it up. When apt-mirror runs, I get a stream of errors where the script can't find the Packages.gz file for the repositories, however the files exist and are reachable. [14:03] for example, here's the output from this morning's run: http://fpaste.org/232136/34376109/ [14:03] I can run wget from the command line on that server, and get every file that apt-mirror can't find. Where do I start troubleshooting it? [14:05] danofsatx: There's a double "//" in the path - long shot but that might be throwing out the URL handler [14:05] wget works with that exact url, and that's the url returned by the mirror.list [14:10] actually, I misspoke. The URL isn't fed from mirror.list. The lines in mirror.list are (what I assume to be) a standard apt mirror.list file with space delimeters [14:10] danofsatx: which release of Ubuntu is this on? [14:12] actaully, the apt-mirror script isn't being run from an ubuntu system. [14:14] danofsatx: The clue is in the "Psh" prefix of the error message. [14:14] hmm....ok, I was wondering about that. What does that mean? [14:17] It's the Perl Shell being used to load the *local* copy of the file telling you there is no local copy. [14:18] oh, ok. Is this an actual error then, or just a warning? [14:20] If the local copy isn't there it means an earlier step to fetch that file hasn't happened [14:21] danofsatx: do you see the message "Downloading ... files using .... threads" ? [14:21] ok, that makes sense. the first couple I've looked at in fact don't exist. [14:22] yes, they start after all those errors. [14:22] danofsatx: If you read the Perl script you can get a feel for what it does when and what to expect to see in terms of progress messages [14:23] danofsatx: Hmmm. maybe those errors are to be expected on a first run? Then it fetches the missing files maybe? [14:24] danofsatx: does the process have permissions to the base_path ? [14:24] this isn't a first run - it runs once a week, and I get the same output every time. [14:24] danofsatx: forget what I said about download order - I can see it does downloads before processing the files [14:26] danofsatx: if you look at the top of the script (around line 100) you can see the default values of the config_variables, which will be overridden by values you have set in mirror.list [14:26] it looks like the missing directory, in all cases, is the debian-installer/ directory.' [14:28] danofsatx: did the script report that URL as having been downloaded? [14:29] hang on, let me dig some more through the output.... [14:32] no, debian-installer directory is not downloaded. [14:33] * danofsatx is now suspecting a mirror.list misconfiguration [14:34] danofsatx: assuming the default config check the logs with: "grep debian-installer /var/spool/apt-mirror/var/*" [14:35] hmmm....there are a few. [14:36] on second though, there is one - archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/debian-installer/debian-installer_20101020ubuntu318_amd64.deb [14:36] the rest of them are libdebian-installer [14:36] danofsatx: I see this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11719719/ [14:37] you have the same thing I do, then. [14:38] What it is looking for is debian-installer under the main/ multiverse/ or universe/ directories [14:41] for example, here: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu//dists/trusty/restricted/ [14:46] danofsatx: I suspect you need to modify the config and add an explicit pocket for debian-installer, of the form "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main/debian-installer restricted/debian-installer universe/debian-installer multiverse/debian-installer" [14:46] that's where I was leaning, also, but I wasn't sure of the format. [14:47] I don't really need the debian-installer, though, I think. My users are using Ubuntu and Mint. [15:11] Does Bind gets used on enterprise servers? [15:14] sadly, yes :( [15:18] Hi all. I have installed the newest Bind 10 version on my ubuntu server and i am getting now allways the problem with apt-get as it reports that the bind9 package in the repos and the new installed bind10 package collide. i have tryed to do apt-get -f install but it does not help. how can i fix my ubuntu server apt service so i am able again to update the distro ?

We use Zabbix to monitor updates using /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check but as expected it doesn't actually go about and get new package lists [18:17] marlinc: the unattended-upgrades package is easy to install, something like landscape might give better reporting if you've got a lot of machines, but that's commercial.. [18:17] The thing is, we don't want automatic installing of updates, just the checking for updates [18:18] iirc unattended updates can be configured to check, or check and download, or check, download, and install. [18:18] apt-get aupdate cant really harm your system ... why not just use a good old cronjob [18:18] let it run once a day and be done ... [18:19] heh, indeed, simplicity :) [18:19] The thing is that I do know that apt has 'APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists' [18:19] And run apt-get -s install ... to see wether the updates can be installed. [18:20] But I'm not sure if it works by default or that its something being added by unattended-upgrades. What runs apt so that it can do those automatic updates === pgraner is now known as pgraner-dr [19:24] sarnold: ping - does the security team really have any opinion as to what we do with nginx, other than your take on it? [19:24] (and by 'we' i mean the server team) [19:25] teward: I don't think the others have looked at it yet [19:26] teward: between our backlog of security fixes and new features needed for snappy, we're feeling a bit overworked lately, so I haven't bothered any of them about it [19:28] sarnold: no problem. [19:28] sarnold: i have a feeling that closer to LTS it'll be a bigger issue [19:28] sarnold: i have a feeling that closer to LTS it'll be a bigger issue [19:28] bah [19:28] was merely curious* [19:28] * teward kicks his laptop from here to /dev/null and back [19:28] teward: it could be, but thankfully it's just one package, and upstream folks seem above average. :) hehe. [19:29] sarnold: indeed. we also have someone at nginx willing to assist with security backports too which makes life a little more easier xD [19:29] teward: nice! === markthomas|away is now known as markthomas [19:42] PSA: Intel 750 NVMe SSD's are ridiculously fast.
