| grendal_prime | its used as a wedge device to connect users of on a smart phone to a java application Linux mint desktop. | 00:04 |
| Tsutsukakushi | apparently --delete should remove any value... maybe this includes the lock too | 00:04 |
| Tsutsukakushi | i'll try tat | 00:04 |

| phi0xz | hey guys, trying to figure out how to make a folder location such as /downloads/ be really a combination of two different folder paths, /downloads/ and /home/downloads/. my drives are split up so that / is one drive and /home/ is another, however my /downloads/ folder is now getting full on / and i want to take the space from /home/downloads/ and link it up to /downloads/ so that files i write to /downloads/ actually write to /home/ | 03:17 |
| phi0xz | downloads/ if /downloads/ is full. | 03:17 |
| andol | phi0xz: Wouldn't you rather solve this at a lower level, combining buth those drives using say LVM? | 03:19 |
| phi0xz | sure. what happened was i have a rental server which was pre configured. they have a default system partition setup which i couldn't choose my own. didnt know if i could alter it easily? | 03:20 |
| phi0xz | i've never altered partition tables in linux after a install has already been done. | 03:20 |
| phi0xz | i've added drives but never altered. | 03:20 |
| phi0xz | is there a guilde you could point me to which may help accomplish this? | 03:21 |
| phi0xz | they also did software raid1 which i honestly dont need.. | 03:21 |
| phi0xz | but its preconfigured | 03:21 |

| Paaltomo | what do | 16:46 |
| Paaltomo | ubuntu 14.10 afaik and antergos | 16:46 |
| Paaltomo | is it a port thing? | 16:49 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: usually, just use top | 16:59 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: large db? | 16:59 |
| Wamphyri | nope not at all | 16:59 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: also, don't use mysql unless you really need to | 16:59 |
| Wamphyri | mysql using 1.7% but php-cgi jumps between 5% to 70% | 17:00 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: install sysstat, enable it, install munin, watch the graphs or just use sysstat/sar | 17:00 |
| qman__ | Paaltomo: that usually means you cannot establish a connection, check firewall settings and make sure you can route traffic to the server properly | 17:00 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: it can be anything, you need to monitor things to see what's hanging | 17:00 |
| Paaltomo | qman_ thanks | 17:00 |
| Wamphyri | RoyK, thanks | 17:01 |
| Wamphyri | i've been watching top, just php/mysql running stupid slow lol | 17:01 |

| Wamphyri | used to be only one instance now i got about 30 of em | 17:07 |
| Wamphyri | RoyK, ok that app sucks nuggets, almost made my machine unusable | 17:11 |
| Wamphyri | RoyK, lmao 5 minutes trying to uninstall sysstat.. still sitting at building dependency tree | 17:18 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: something must be messed up, hten | 17:25 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: probably i/o fsckup | 17:26 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: what does 'uptime' say about the load? | 17:26 |
| Wamphyri | dunno | 17:27 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: or what about a ps axf|grep D # ? | 17:27 |
| Wamphyri | still at the same spot | 17:27 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: probably a lot of processes in D state | 17:27 |
| RoyK | perhaps swapping? | 17:27 |
| Wamphyri | ps aux returned apache2 and php-cgi and a huge list of em | 17:27 |
| RoyK | Wamphyri: did you pipe it through | grep D ? | 17:28 |
| Wamphyri | na just ps aux then restarted apache2 | 17:28 |

| Wamphyri | first time running sysstat, is it going to use all resources pretty much? | 17:33 |
| bekks | Wamphyri: Even without sysstat, your computer will use all available resources, when running linux. | 17:34 |
| Wamphyri | i ment will it hog them all | 17:35 |
| bekks | Which resources in particular do you talk about? | 17:35 |
| Wamphyri | any / all of them, i installed sysstat and my system turned into a turtle, 14 minutes to uninstall sysstat | 17:36 |
| bekks | Which resources in particular do you talk about? | 17:36 |
| bekks | Do you know which resources sysstat is showing you? | 17:36 |
| Wamphyri | alright, i'll rephrase. i installed sysstat, system became almost completly unusable, took 14 minutes to uninstall sysstat. (no point trying to run sysstat because system was virtually unusable) | 17:38 |
| bekks | Then look at free -m, top, ps -ef, vmstat and see whats hogging your box. | 17:40 |
| Wamphyri | here is the output of free http://pastebin.com/1TZ1R8v8 | 17:40 |

| bekks | Doesnt look like your system is "unusable". | 17:49 |
| Wamphyri | lmao, ok, i installed sysstat, apache2 / php-cgi usage when insane (ps aux to list it) so i tried to uninstall sysstat, after 5+ minutes of it sitting there building database 0% i ran service apache2 restart, that took 4 minutes to run. afterwards system managed to uninstall sysstat in a more "timely" manor | 17:52 |
| bekks | Wamphyri: Sounds like you should investigate your apache/php setup then. | 18:04 |
| Wamphyri | php-cgi runs between 5% to 70% | 18:10 |
| bekks | Doesnt mean anything. | 18:10 |

| bekks | 500 server error on which server? | 18:55 |
| bekks | webserver, mailserver, etc.? | 18:56 |
| bekks | And running which Ubuntu? | 18:56 |
| jvwjgames2 | Yes Ubuntu | 18:56 |
| teward | jvwjgames2: 500 means nothing without details on the software you're using that's generating it, the version of Ubuntu, etc. | 18:57 |
| teward | jvwjgames2: is it Apache? NGINX? Postfix? PHP? | 18:57 |
| teward | what's generating the 500 error? | 18:57 |
| bekks | firefox :P | 18:57 |
| jvwjgames2 | Here is the error log http://tfdatabase.net | 18:57 |
| bekks | Error log of WHAT? | 18:57 |
| teward | jvwjgames2: that's not useful | 18:57 |
| bekks | jvwjgames2: Start answering my questions please. | 18:58 |
| teward | jvwjgames2: the question at hand: What software generated that error.log, and are you seeing the 500 error when you navigate to a web site or what? | 18:58 |
| teward | jvwjgames2: if you want help, answer questions | 18:58 |
| teward | if you don't want help, don't answer questions, and continue to have the problem. | 18:58 |
| jvwjgames2 | OK sorry it is Ubuntu server 14.04 LTS running Apache2 | 18:58 |
| bekks | jvwjgames2: Fix all those "file not found" errors first. | 18:59 |
| jvwjgames2 | I did | 18:59 |
| bekks | You didnt. They are in the log. | 19:00 |
| jvwjgames2 | The error is at the bottom | 19:00 |
| bekks | Fix the "permission denied" error then. | 19:00 |
| * teward thinks he knows the next question from jvwjgames2 | 19:01 | |
| jvwjgames2 | I cleared out the error.log but when I get the 500 error nothing generated | 19:06 |
| jvwjgames2 | Only in access.lo | 19:06 |

| geetar | I can't print to a usb printer from a headless, non-gui ubuntu server using "lpr file-to-print.txt". I *can* print from "cat file-to-print.txt > /dev/usb/lp0". Any ideas what I can check? | 22:09 |
| geetar | Now, I *can* print from "lpr file-to-print.txt", but not printing from remote laptop. | 22:22 |
| geetar | even "lpr file-to-print.txt" using ssh is very slow though. | 22:22 |
| geetar | should I install full gui on the server to print with this machine or has anyone else been able to print with a headless gui-less ubuntu server? | 22:40 |
| geetar | I can print with the same printer on my ubuntu laptop flawlessly, but cant get the server to print | 22:41 |
| geetar | or at least can get it to print-serve properly | 22:41 |
| geetar | just now got it to print a test pdf through "lpr" | 22:42 |
| JanC | did you look for errors in the logs? | 22:45 |
| geetar | JanC: yes, but looking again .. | 22:45 |
| geetar | JanC: I have a thousand "Unable to create SSL server key file "/etc/cups/ssl/server.key" - No such file or directory" entries in error_log . I thought I avoided that problem by re-installing cups. But that gave me other problems that I thought were resolved. I cannot find on google or duckduck any other problems with cups and SSL. | 22:51 |
| JanC | and logs or verbose errors on the laptop when you try to print from it? | 22:52 |
| JanC | and I'm sure you don't need a GUI to print, but maybe you need some configuration change (permissions? is it listening "on the outside" or only on localhost? etc.) | 22:53 |
| geetar | The SSL issue I think was why I could not get into this machine and manage the printers with the browser through 192.168.0.2:631. I kept getting permissions errors. | 22:53 |
| geetar | JanC: I am about to get into the server through 192.168.0.2:631 now. After reinstalling CUPS. | 22:54 |
| geetar | JanC: but I assume that the long delay I am getting it the server writing a thousand ""Unable to create SSL server key file "/etc/cups/ssl/server.key" - No such file or directory" in the error logs. As I said, I uninstalled cups. Re-installation did not re-create the config files. I put them back and then it worked. I got into the cups through the browser. | 22:57 |
| geetar | The SSL folder in /etc/cups/ had links to ssl keys but they would not let me through the browser. I can find nothing on the web about when or why or how the SSL certificates are created and how to fix this issue. | 23:00 |
| geetar | They were not re-created when I uninstalled and then re-installed CUPS. In fact, the default config files were not re-created when I re-installed CUPS. Why is that? | 23:01 |
| === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
| geetar | BTW it is still creating "Unable to create SSL server key file "/etc/cups/ssl/server.key" - No such file or directory" entries in the error log | 23:03 |
| geetar | Can someone verify that in /etc/cups/ssl they have links to SSL certificates? | 23:04 |
| geetar | Does anyone know how or why the ssl folder in /etc/cups/ssl gets created? | 23:04 |
| OerHeks | geetar, mine during fresh install, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13999403/ | 23:09 |
| tarpman | geetar: how -> see /var/lib/dpkg/info/cups.postinst | 23:10 |
| tarpman | geetar: why -> to provide a default self-signed server cert so that you can use cups securely without having to buy a certificate | 23:10 |
| tarpman | geetar: if you delete a config file, dpkg respects your wish to have it gone and does not bring it back if you remove and reinstall a package. if you *purge* and reinstall the package, the default configs will come back | 23:11 |
| tarpman | geetar: or reinstall the package using dpkg --force-confnew | 23:11 |
| geetar | OerHeks: thanks, helpful, similar to mine before. I will restore. | 23:11 |
| tarpman | pardon me, --force-confmiss | 23:12 |
| geetar | tarpman: thanks. I "apt-get --purge" cups. Which I thought would make it start over when I re-installed, but it did not re-create any config files when I re-installed. Thanks, too, trying --force-confnew | 23:18 |
| tarpman | geetar: pardon me, the package that sets up the certs (and some other configs) is cups-daemon, not cups itself | 23:22 |
| geetar | tarpman: "sudo apt-get install cups-daemon" claims I am at the newest version. | 23:24 |
| tarpman | geetar: I meant cups-daemon is the package you need to purge and reinstall if you want the configs re-created | 23:25 |
| geetar | ah, k | 23:25 |
