[01:48] <Superbest> My server can ping eg. 8.8.8.8 but ping www.google.com doesn't work, can someone help me troubleshoot and fix it?
[03:51] <karstensrage> why was systemd so quickly adopted?
[03:53] <patdk-lap> cause debian odopted it
[03:53] <patdk-lap> and to not do what debian does, causes a lot of stress
[03:57] <karstensrage> was ubuntu happy about it?
[04:00] <patdk-lap> how should I know?
[07:06] <BLUG_Fred> hi! Having some mysql not starting problems on 16.04. Is this the right place?
[07:23] <ikonia> bilde2910: #ubuntu+1 is the pre-release channel disucssion
[09:39] <a7ndrew> Is installing Ubuntu Server 16.04 possible without a network connection?
[09:40] <ikonia> yes
[09:40] <ikonia> it's ships on a dvd and you can use other media, such as usb
[09:40] <ikonia> (once it's releaseD)
[09:40] <a7ndrew> awesome! 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.
[09:41] <a7ndrew> I get an error screen after it can't reach the mirror I choose.
[09:41] <ikonia> you won't be able to use the mirrors until you configure networking
[09:42] <a7ndrew> That's not a problem, I just can't seem to proceed with formatting disks and copying everything over.
[09:43] <ikonia> copying everything over ?
[09:43] <a7ndrew> I mean, copying the OS components from the installer to disk.
[09:44] <ikonia> installer to the disk ?
[09:44] <ikonia> it doesn't do that
[09:44] <ikonia> how are you booting, from an install DVD?
[09:44] <a7ndrew> from a USB key
[09:46] <a7ndrew> I 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-windows
[09:47] <ikonia> ok, 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"
[09:49] <a7ndrew> The installer fails to proceed beyond the mirror selection screen.
[09:49] <ikonia> so thats totally different than what you just said
[09:49] <ikonia> which was you couldn't partition and it wouldn't copy the SO
[09:49] <ikonia> os
[09:50] <a7ndrew> Well I can't do those things because it seems teh installer pre-requires mirror configuration.
[10:46] <bekks> a7ndrew: "we cant do those things" is as unclear as "it doesnt do", "it doesnt work", "it fails" without any details.
[15:38] <patdk-lap> this is annoying
[15:38] <patdk-lap> 16.04 refuses to start openvpn :(
[15:39] <patdk-lap> well, that is kindof annoying
[15:46] <ratrace> refuses, eh? how dares it have an opinion!
[17:32] <GrandPa-G> Any suggestions on how to setup wifi password at command level without going through all the edits and commands that are normally described?
[18:21] <vbotka> GrandPa-G, wpa_cli is the client to wpa_supplicant
[18:33] <GrandPa-G> vbotka: thanks, what other options for type of password than psk? Is it in the manual?
[19:27] <vbotka> GrandPa-G, generic info is here https://w1.fi/
[19:40] <GrandPa-G> vbotka: 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 to
[19:41] <GrandPa-G> a 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.
[20:42] <jvwjgames> Is there a way to print in real time to a terminal over Bluetooth to my server
[20:49] <jvwjgames> Is there?
[20:55] <ratrace> jvwjgames: print what?
[20:56] <jvwjgames> So say my arduino sends data such as earthquake 7.0 I want the console on my server to print it
[20:57] <jvwjgames> And then if console read data then execute GCM-sender.py
[20:57] <ratrace> sends data how?
[20:57] <jvwjgames> Over bluetooth
[20:57] <ratrace> that's carrier, but what's the protocol?
[20:57] <jvwjgames> 2.0
[20:57] <ratrace> ...
[20:58] <ratrace> jvwjgames: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model
[20:58] <ratrace> Bluetooth is physical layer. I'm asking you what's the application protocol.
[20:58] <jvwjgames> Oh OK sorry
[20:59] <jvwjgames> Data layer
[20:59] <jvwjgames> Obviously
[20:59] <ratrace> what?
[21:00] <jvwjgames> I am sorry you are going to have to better explain
[21:00] <ratrace> not me, you are. :) You're the one with the problem.
[21:01] <ratrace> jvwjgames: 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] <ratrace> then you define which service on your computer is picking up this data. is it logging? can you hook into syslog? etc...
[21:02] <jvwjgames> Oh OK I see now sorry
[21:02] <jvwjgames> Over http
[21:03] <ratrace> and which service is picking up the data?
[21:04] <jvwjgames> And then logged over to /var/log/earthquake/stations/UT-Kearns-1.log
[21:05] <ratrace> so there's a custom http application receiving the data, and logging to a file?
[21:05] <jvwjgames> Yes
[21:05] <ratrace> can you configure it to use syslog?
[21:05] <jvwjgames> Yes
[21:06] <ratrace> then that's how you do it.
[21:06] <jvwjgames> Is that better
[21:06] <jvwjgames> Ok
[21:06] <ratrace> configure sysloging for an unused facility number, and then configure syslog to log both to the file and console.
[21:06] <jvwjgames> Ok
[21:07] <jvwjgames> Is there a way that if the log file contains certain text that it will trigger a .py file
[21:08] <ratrace> I think so yes
[21:08] <ratrace> syslog-ng at least can.
[21:09] <jvwjgames> Ok thanks so much sorry to be a pain earlier I just couldn't think of what you meant IDK why.
[21:13] <ratrace> jvwjgames: although, the proper way to do it is to have that receiving application do those triggers
[21:14] <jvwjgames> Ok
[21:26] <GrandPa-G> do 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?
[21:37] <GrandPa-G> I found my answer.
[21:38] <GrandPa-G> oops, didn't mean to send that
