[06:39] does anyone have recommendations for a portable kvm solution for servers running ubuntu (mainly for initial setup and bios) === iberezovskiy|off is now known as iberezovskiy [09:10] hi there [09:10] quick question about running the cloudimages on an openstack platform and specificaly io performance differences between stock xenial and stock trusty with a xenial-lts kernel installed through apt [09:11] are there differences in the kernel options? [09:11] the xenial cloud image with kernel 4.4.0-24-generic has almost 2 times better IO performance than the trusty cloud image with the xenial-lts 4.4.0-34-generic kernel [09:11] which i find surprising as i would expect the same performance [09:11] i already asked in #ubuntu-kernel but it's rather quiet down there .. === jaro is now known as Guest90451 [10:46] jsheeren, you're probably gonna be better off taking a look at deb src files where I guess you could see how both kernels were compiled [11:00] coreycb, jamespage: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2016-August/016812.html [13:18] rbasak, would you mind pointing them to the mitaka review queue for the cinder question? I need to figure out why I'm not getting ubuntu-devel emails (I'm subscribed). and I'm headed out of town right now. [13:19] coreycb: sure, but where is that? [13:19] coreycb: it's ubuntu-devel-discuss BTW, not ubuntu-devel. [13:19] rbasak, sorry, xenial review queue - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+queue?queue_state=1&queue_text= [13:19] rbasak, ah so maybe I'm not subscribed [13:20] Ah, thanks. I assumed it was a special cloud archive thing [13:20] It'll go back to UCA Trusty after landing in Xenial, right? [13:20] rbasak, thanks for doing that, yes that's correct [13:21] OK, thank you for confirming [14:56] jgrimm, nacc: so a squid3 merge looks pretty involved. I'm definitely not going to finish it today, and in any case I have doubts about pushing it in due to FF etc. But I can hand it over to nacc to continue? It won't be wasted work either way because we'll land it eventually whatever we decide. And the git workflow makes a handover really easy I think. [14:56] Alternatively if we don't want to land it this cycle then I can hold on to it. [14:57] rbasak, lets pass it along [14:57] will be good test of it being easy handover too. :) [14:57] I like that last aspect :) [14:58] nacc: OK, so https://git.launchpad.net/~racb/ubuntu/+source/squid3 [14:58] I've done deconstruct/3.5.12-1ubuntu8 without reconstruct, but please check it. The reason is that ~ubuntu-server-dev has a previous upload, so I manually rebased the newer imports onto that. Not sure the auto-reconstruct would have handled that. [14:59] My master branch is my current work in progress towards a logical (incomplete). It have an empty diff (except for update-maintainer and changelog) to old/ubuntu. [14:59] It *should* have. [15:00] But it is far from the minimal logical because of the extensive Ubuntu-specific changes wrt. maintainer scripts and migration paths. [15:01] Note also my message in https://git.launchpad.net/~racb/ubuntu/+source/squid3/commit/?id=279b24d284429fcf9d93767ebe11f4688fc477fd please - I didn't manage to fully match up all changes - perhaps because of a difference in interpretation. [15:01] (and two "previously undocumented" commits too) [15:31] smb, hi! [15:31] xnox, yeees? [15:31] libvirt FTBFS on s390x, because python is not available, and we comment out build-depends on python. My guess is that it is only transitevely installed on all other arches. [15:32] smb, do you mind if I upload "build-depends: python:any" patch? or do you use some fancy server team git stuff to manage libvirt uploads? [15:32] rbasak, around ? [15:33] sample build log at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/279853280/buildlog_ubuntu-yakkety-s390x.libvirt_2.1.0-1ubuntu3.0~ppa1_BUILDING.txt.gz and trivially reproducible by rebuilding current libvirt package from yakkety on s390x [15:33] i'm not sure where/what/how/why dropped python2.7 dep on s390x though =( maybe i should investigate that. [15:33] i'm looking at cloud-init packaging... https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/tree/debian?h=ubuntu/devel [15:34] xnox, at some point we added a git tree but I can re-import the change there later [15:34] i think i'm kind of forced into having cluod-init.install and grub-legacy-ec2.install because i have the 2 packages (or at least something needs to deal with copying the right files to the right package dir). [15:34] i dont like listing things explicitly in https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/tree/debian/cloud-init.install?h=ubuntu/devel [15:35] xnox, but was that yakkety? [15:35] smb, yes yakkety only. Just today. [15:35] but i need to have the first 2 lines there , or some other way make tools/21-cloud-inig.conf get into /etc/rsyslog.d and the profile.d file too. [15:35] smb, i'm maintaining a small patch on top of libvirt in my ppa, hence i've noticed. [15:35] xnox, because the uplaod I did show build ok [15:36] i can shorten that to lines 1 and 2 and then 'etc/* lib/* usr/*' but that is still les than ideal. is there an easier way ? [15:36] xnox, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/2.1.0-1ubuntu3 [15:36] i just rebuilt that on devac02 in sbuild and it fails. [15:36] * xnox pokes chroots to find ways. [15:36] smoser, sure you can avoid install files. [15:37] xnox, weird... [15:37] * smoser secretly hoped xnox would jump in :) [15:37] smoser, dh_auto_install --destdir=debian/cloud-init [15:37] that would run "make install" into your "main" package to install everything. [15:37] then you just need obscure-package.install to install things there. [15:38] or some such. [15:38] smoser, see $ man dh_auto_install [15:38] ok.. [15:38] and then i can just in install: target or something copy the files to debian/cloud-init ? [15:39] huh? [15:39] rbasak: will review it asap [15:39] smoser, normally, when one has multiple packages upstream built system installs everything into debian/tmp, rather than the main package. [15:40] here we redirect upstream built system to still install into debian/ straight away, because the bulk should be there. [15:40] no need to write any .install files for the main package then. [15:41] smoser, rm debian/cloud-init.install [15:41] smoser, cat >debian/rules < override_dh_auto_install [15:41] dh_auto_install --destdir=debian/cloud-init [15:41] EOF [15:42] (add colon, and tab) -> done [15:46] .. [15:47] smb, found the culprits - why you no like s390x!!!! =) [15:47] * xnox shakes fist [15:49] xnox, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23070530/ seems to work for me [15:49] is that how you woudl do it ? or would you suggest a different makefile target for doing the install of those files [15:50] actually, that seems to result in ignorning of grub-legacy-ec2.install [15:51] smoser, something like that. grub-legacy-ec2.install should still be run.... [15:52] smoser, does grub-legacy-ec2.install -> installs things from debian/tmp currently? or just from arbitrary places? [15:52] from debian/ [15:52] so should be fine. [15:52] https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/tree/debian/grub-legacy-ec2.install?h=ubuntu/devel [15:53] well, the package ends up with only http://paste.ubuntu.com/23070539/ [15:53] smoser: just catching up. I'm not sure I follow what you want or the reason for your dislike of what you have, so shall I leave it to xnox? :) [15:54] smoser, mv debian/grub-legacy-ec2.install debian/ec2-init.install ? [15:54] rbasak, well, i dont like listing directories for cloud-init as it made me miss some files [15:54] that were installed by setup.py into directories not listed there. [15:54] smoser, looks like you renamed the package, but didn't rename .install file to match, no? [15:54] xnox, no. [15:54] xnox, tis not that I not care, but if the build ain't broken for me I won't fix it [15:54] smoser: do you know about dh_install --fail-missing? [15:54] i should probably drop the ec2-init package entirely [15:55] rbasak, well, yeah. thats another option. [15:55] smb, so python2.7 is transitive dependency of systemtap-sdt-dev and zfsutils-linux which are arch qualified on all arches, but s390x. [15:56] python2.7 is needed for apidocs build, and without builddeps on systemtap-sdt-dev/zfsutils the build fails. [15:56] smoser: sorry, I know I'm not giving you completely coherent answers at the moment. I need to spend some time understanding your question better, but I need to run to a meeting. And then I'm off for a week :-/ [15:56] smoser, you say that things from "grub-legacy-ec2.install" did not install into the package, yet the package you showed in the pastebin is "ec2-init" rather than "grub-legacy-ec2". [15:57] oh. [15:57] yeah [15:57] i suck. [15:57] i dpkg -c the wrong file [15:57] xnox, thank you for your time. [15:59] xnox, hm I guess zfsutils-linux would be a good s390x candiate. It just was not done before and I was a bit in a hurry to bead ff [15:59] beat even [15:59] smb, quite. I'll build with xfsutils and systemtap-sdt-dev enabled on s390x, make sure things still work, and then probably upload. [16:00] good thing i actually started to dig into where the transitive python2.7 dep comes from on !s390x [16:00] xnox, ack ok. and I sync it up with the git tree after that [16:02] smb, deal! =) === iberezovskiy is now known as iberezovskiy|off === InfoTest1 is now known as InfoTest [18:04] hallo [18:51] hi can anyone please help. I'm having a constant battle with authentication problems via imap mail with dovecot. I don't know if this is a bug in 14.04 LTS which I'm running but I always get errors in the logs [19:00] jonah, how can we help when we cannot see the errors? [19:00] patdk-wk: hi thanks - the error I keep getting is pam_unix(dovecot:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser=info-domain.co.uk rhost=::1 user=info-domain.co.uk [19:01] patdk-wk: pam_unix(dovecot:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser=info-scotiahouse.co.uk rhost=::1 user=info-scotiahouse.co.uk [19:01] patdk-wk: unable to dlopen(pam_systemd.so): /lib/security/pam_systemd.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [19:02] patdk-wk: and a lot of errors about pam_systemd.so... [19:02] so what your saying is dovecot doesn't work, cause your pam stack is screwed [19:02] why is your pam stack messed up? [19:02] patdk-wk: yeah something like that - but it does work intermittently... [19:02] patdk-wk: I don't know why it's screwed but it would be great if I could fix it somehow... [19:02] also, what is up with that username? [19:03] patdk-wk: yeah with the hyphen in there? weird eh? [19:03] last I knew, domainnames aren't used used for usernames [19:03] well, you configured it that way :) [19:03] I know I didn't [19:03] and it doesn't come that way [19:03] patdk-wk: yeah that's true, but I didn't screw that pam stack or whatever, that's always been messed up! [19:54] so i have a problem /var/www/website.com/index.html shows when i load my webpage all though i want /home/bosco/public_html/index.html to show as the home page how do i make that happen i have googled to no avail [19:54] ? [20:08] normally one comes in here asking howto get sufficient priv to write from /home/ to /var/www/ [20:08] try to put apache to read from your /home/ perhaps? [20:10] i have tried that all i know is i want /home/bosco/public_html/index.(php/html) to edit my site not /var/www/site.com/public_html/index.(php/html) [20:10] OerHeks, [20:28] userdir [20:29] huh [20:32] i got ya sorry tired and just woke up working nights at the moment be back on days next month lol [21:25] Ah, bosco left. Now I finally had some time to explain how to a2enmod userdir and some other things [21:34] hello [21:36] I've recently updated my server from 14.04 to 16.04 and have an issue with openvpn. Whenever I try to start via /etc/init.d/openvpn start, it says it is initiated via systemctl, but nothing happens. When I try systemctl start shade, it then says that openvpn is running, but there is no process. Whenever I try systemctl start openvpn@mynetname, it then says it failed to start because of external command [21:38] Anyone knows how to deal with this? [22:28] anyone in here [22:35] ok i need some help with my server i want to be able to edit /home/bosco/public_html/index.html and have to edit my website not have to edit /var/www/website.com/public_html/ i want to edit it as a user not as root but be able to from my users home directory [22:35] ?? [22:47] bosco: see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_userdir.html - it's probably installed, just enable it [22:48] RoyK, i have been there and enabled it can u pm me please [22:48] bosco: a2enmod userdir and apache2ctl graceful should do [22:50] i just want someone to look at it and show me what i am doing wrong if thats possible [22:51] i have looked and spent to much time trying to figure this out done almost everything i can think of with google and apaches website as well [22:51] bosco: have you checked the logs? [22:51] yes i have checked the logs [22:51] as in /var/log/apache2/error.log ?
