[07:58] <jak2000> hi all
[07:58] <jak2000> why crontab not generate my backup of my databases? here more details: http://pastie.org/10626862    any advice?
[10:43] <lordievader> I'm missing a #!...
[10:44] <lordievader> Try running it with dash, it will likely show why the script doesn't work under cron.
[20:30] <Gaz_> I'm running ubuntu server and both my root and boot partitions are full so I booted ubuntu live and used gparted to resize the root partition, applied the change and checked it showed the new size. When i boot back into ubuntu server the login screen is still telling me the old size, what am i missing to resize the partitions?
[21:11] <TJ-> Gaz_: you've probably resized the partition, but not the file-system inside it
[21:12] <Gaz_> Yeah, I have just r elised this but now when i use resize2fs it tells me the device or resource is busy, any ideas how to fix that?
[21:13] <lordievader> Gaz_: Is it a ext filesystem?
[21:13] <Gaz_> yes
[21:14] <lordievader> Hmm, that should support online enlarging. At least ext4 does...
[21:16] <Gaz_> it is ext4, im reading this currently http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/138090/cant-resize-a-partition-using-resize2fs
[21:16] <Gaz_> is this the way to do it do you think?
[21:19] <lordievader> Do you have the exact same error?
[21:21] <Gaz_> no, my error is resize2fs: device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda5 couldnt find a valid filessystem superblock
[21:22] <lordievader> Yeah, so it's the same ;) Anyhow the second part, 'couldnt find a valid filessystem superblock', leads me to think that you have a broken filesystem.
[21:22] <lordievader> I'd take a live-cd, check the filesystem and enlarge from there.
[21:23] <Gaz_> what tool can  i use to enlarge the filesystem using the live cd? please excuse me being a noob
[21:23] <lordievader> resize2fs ;)
[21:24] <Gaz_> ok ill give it a shot now, thanks for the help so far
[23:48] <Tsutsukakushi> hello
[23:49] <Tsutsukakushi> how do i unlock a passwordless user?
[23:49] <Tsutsukakushi> usermod -U doesn't work if the user has no password
[23:55] <tarpman> Tsutsukakushi: how did you go about locking it?
[23:57] <Tsutsukakushi> if you do useradd without a password it's automatically locked
[23:58] <tarpman> Tsutsukakushi: locked in some way other than not having a password?
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> we;;
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> well
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> it's just !
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> by default
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> so locked
[23:59] <Tsutsukakushi> and no password
