BLUG_Fredhi! Having some mysql not starting problems on 16.04. Is this the right place?07:06

a7ndrewIs installing Ubuntu Server 16.04 possible without a network connection?09:39
ikoniayes09:40
ikoniait's ships on a dvd and you can use other media, such as usb09:40
ikonia(once it's releaseD)09:40
a7ndrewawesome! I'm just doing something wrong then. I've downloaded the beta iso and copied it to USB and it isn't working for me.09:40
a7ndrewI get an error screen after it can't reach the mirror I choose.09:41
ikoniayou won't be able to use the mirrors until you configure networking09:41
a7ndrewThat's not a problem, I just can't seem to proceed with formatting disks and copying everything over.09:42
ikoniacopying everything over ?09:43
a7ndrewI mean, copying the OS components from the installer to disk.09:43
ikoniainstaller to the disk ?09:44
ikoniait doesn't do that09:44
ikoniahow are you booting, from an install DVD?09:44
a7ndrewfrom a USB key09:44
a7ndrewI used ubuntu-16.04-beta2-server-amd64.iso and then used the USB installer as documented here http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows09:46
ikoniaok, so I suggest a.) use the #ubuntu+1 channel b.) be a bit more descriptive on what's failing, it's gone from "can't use the mirror" to "can't partition teh disk" to "can't copy the OS"09:47
a7ndrewThe installer fails to proceed beyond the mirror selection screen.09:49
ikoniaso thats totally different than what you just said09:49
ikoniawhich was you couldn't partition and it wouldn't copy the SO09:49
ikoniaos09:49
a7ndrewWell I can't do those things because it seems teh installer pre-requires mirror configuration.09:50

ratracerefuses, eh? how dares it have an opinion!15:46
GrandPa-GAny suggestions on how to setup wifi password at command level without going through all the edits and commands that are normally described?17:32
vbotkaGrandPa-G, wpa_cli is the client to wpa_supplicant18:21
GrandPa-Gvbotka: thanks, what other options for type of password than psk? Is it in the manual?18:33
=== Monthrect is now known as Piper-Off
=== afkthairus is now known as athairus
vbotkaGrandPa-G, generic info is here https://w1.fi/19:27
GrandPa-Gvbotka: that all help. I am really trying to set up a raspberry box headless with only a command level interface. Also, the box is going to19:40
GrandPa-Ga novice user so all the editing needs to be eliminated. Basically we have the box working at one site, but moving it to another, so wifi password will change.19:41
jvwjgamesIs there a way to print in real time to a terminal over Bluetooth to my server20:42
jvwjgamesIs there?20:49
ratracejvwjgames: print what?20:55
jvwjgamesSo say my arduino sends data such as earthquake 7.0 I want the console on my server to print it20:56
jvwjgamesAnd then if console read data then execute GCM-sender.py20:57
ratracesends data how?20:57
jvwjgamesOver bluetooth20:57
ratracethat's carrier, but what's the protocol?20:57
jvwjgames2.020:57
ratrace...20:57
ratracejvwjgames: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model20:58
ratraceBluetooth is physical layer. I'm asking you what's the application protocol.20:58
jvwjgamesOh OK sorry20:58
jvwjgamesData layer20:59
jvwjgamesObviously20:59
ratracewhat?20:59
jvwjgamesI am sorry you are going to have to better explain21:00
ratracenot me, you are. :) You're the one with the problem.21:00
ratracejvwjgames: in other words, how is your arduino sending data? Custom JSON packet over HTTPS? zeromq packet? proprietary binary over raw tcp? taht kind of thing.21:01
ratracethen you define which service on your computer is picking up this data. is it logging? can you hook into syslog? etc...21:01
jvwjgamesOh OK I see now sorry21:02
jvwjgamesOver http21:02
ratraceand which service is picking up the data?21:03
jvwjgamesAnd then logged over to /var/log/earthquake/stations/UT-Kearns-1.log21:04
ratraceso there's a custom http application receiving the data, and logging to a file?21:05
jvwjgamesYes21:05
ratracecan you configure it to use syslog?21:05
jvwjgamesYes21:05
ratracethen that's how you do it.21:06
jvwjgamesIs that better21:06
jvwjgamesOk21:06
ratraceconfigure sysloging for an unused facility number, and then configure syslog to log both to the file and console.21:06
jvwjgamesOk21:06
jvwjgamesIs there a way that if the log file contains certain text that it will trigger a .py file21:07
ratraceI think so yes21:08
ratracesyslog-ng at least can.21:08
jvwjgamesOk thanks so much sorry to be a pain earlier I just couldn't think of what you meant IDK why.21:09
ratracejvwjgames: although, the proper way to do it is to have that receiving application do those triggers21:13
jvwjgamesOk21:14
GrandPa-Gdo you really need the data to go to a console? or do you just want the data to go from a remote to the server printer? What is the function of the console?21:26
GrandPa-GI found my answer.21:37
GrandPa-Goops, didn't mean to send that21:38
