For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process.01:38

ksft_lordcirth: so it's secured against the user?01:47
lordcirthksft_, it's secured against unapproved malware, boot USBs, etc, in theory.  On some good motherboards, you can set your own signing keys, which is a nice feature.01:48

I'd like to request help. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving reading that guide, I'd like to move my /home from / to new partition, both /home and new partition is encrypted. the following command: sudo rsync -aXS --exclude='/*/.gvfs' /home/. /media/home/. said to be copying from my old partition to new partition, but resulting in the file being unencrypted. I'd like to reencrypt them instead of copying the 03:01
Sho__ /home03:01
Sho__sorry for unable to contain the question in one line.03:01
lordcirthSho__, a fun problem.  Firstly, you have backups?03:02
Sho__backups? just for whatever timeshift is scheduled to do.03:02
lordcirthSho__, you should copy a backup off the computer, if possible.03:03
Sho__so. because I've copied using the first command in that page, the file is already copied to my new partition. unencrypted, the guide says.03:03
lordcirthSho__, Your current /home on / partition is encrypted, correct?03:04
Sho__to be honest, I can't see the difference? when I set up ubuntu, I set /home to be encrypted.03:05
Sho__how to test?03:05
morfmagic03:06
lordcirthSho__, do 'ls -a /home/' and see if '.ecryptfs' is there03:06
morfSho__: mount the partition with /home from other os / live usb or whatever ... do ls /home/[username] ... you will see03:07
Sho__yes03:07
lordcirthSho__, then it's encrypted.  So your files are actually stored (encrypted) in that directory, and transparently decrypted to appear in /home/user03:07
lordcirthSho__, so I guess you'd want to copy the .ecryptfs directory over, and the empty directory /home/sho but not the contents03:08

zmcI just upgraded from 14.04 LTS to 16.04.1, and got the nasty suprise of systemd.  I reverted to upstart and it broke things. Is Ubuntu forcing everyone to take the D or should I file bugs?03:21
lordcirthzmc, systemd is standard now.  It is generally wise to read a summary changelog before upgrading if you care about system details.03:23
BitKid_haveing truble install ubuntu16.0403:23
zmclordcirth, I understand it's now the default, upstart is still in the tree. Moving back to upstart causes breakage. Is it a mistake that upstart was left in the tree, or is the mistake the bad behaviour?03:24
ksft_lordcirth: did you see the pastebin link?03:24

BitKid_any suggestion guys? iv been stuck at this for a week03:26
lordcirthBitKid_, you'd need to supply details of exactly when and how the installer crashes03:27
BitKid_ok, please tell me what info I need03:27
BitKid_I can run commands from terminal03:27
gtsrdragnadh, on ipv2903:27
gtsri was just leaving03:27
gtsrkthx and sorry and kthx and cya03:27
BitKid_after crashing it askes me to send notes, then i am in some kind of ubunto trial03:28
lordcirthksft_, have you changed any settings regarding gcc or your kernel?03:28
BitKid_so i shoudl be abel to get the info need03:28
ksft_lordcirth: I don't think so03:28
lordcirthksft_, your system is up to date 16.04.1?03:28
ksft_lordcirth: no, it's 14.0403:28
lordcirthah ok03:28
BitKid_is there a way to debug from terminal so can see if there is any hardware to software incompatabilitys that could be causing the crash?03:30
lordcirthksft_, you're sure you're using the correct driver version for your GPU?03:30
ksft_lordcirth: no, not at all03:30
ksft_I followed the instructions in the forum post EriC^^ linked to03:30
ksft_I got the driver from Nvidia's website03:31
ksft_yeah, actually, I'm more sure than I was before that I'm using the right version03:31
lordcirthksft_, oh, .deb package or manual?03:32
ksft_lordcirth: it was a .run file03:32
lordcirthksft_, this was after the packages didn't work for you?03:33
BitKid_lordcirth any sugguestions?03:33
ksft_yeah, but the problems I was having with them were the same03:33
lordcirthI haven't had to manually install nvidia for a long time03:33
lordcirthBitKid_, if the installer crashes, it should provide an error message or log?03:34
BitKid_yes is has this long statment that basicly it crashed and this window will close. then it closes and anothereone opens witha send option to send to developer once i click send i can access the web browser to ghet on the irc03:35
lordcirthBitKid_, but it doesn't say why?  Does it say if it's written a log somewhere?03:36
BitKid_lordcirth this is on all linux distro not just ubuntu03:36
BitKid_not sure ok ill go thru the process again but it takes like 30 min since it will install like 1/2 way before the error comes in03:37
BitKid_is there a way to check from terminal if it has a log writen  somewhere?03:37
lordcirthBitKid_, what point does it get to?  Installing packages?03:37
BitKid_hmm sry didnt pay close attention to thbat03:38
BitKid_that*03:38
lordcirthBitKid_, you can look in /var/log/apt maybe?03:38
lordcirthBitKid_, or /var/log/installer ?03:39
BitKid_ok so i have history.log but looks like a nuch of nothing to me03:39
BitKid_should i post it in post option anyway?03:40
vahehi , tar how to extract that would not have changed the attribute 755 or 64403:40
BitKid_here is all it shows lordcirth ::  http://paste.ubuntu.com/23069021/03:41
lordcirthBitKid_, anything in /var/log/installer?03:42
lordcirthvahe, tar -p Preserves permissions03:42
BitKid_ya, DEBUG DM VERSION03:43
BitKid_sry cap03:43
lordcirthBitKid_, that's all it says?03:43
BitKid_ya03:43
lordcirthBitKid_, pastebin /var/log/syslog03:43
BitKid_i think debug should have some good stuff right?03:43
BitKid_ok03:43
lordcirthBitKid_, wait are those 3 filenames or contents?03:44
BitKid_not sure for the diffrence, i used ls and saw those 3 options03:44
BitKid_no option for /var/log/syslog03:45
BitKid_bash: cd: /var/log/syslog: Not a directory03:45
lordcirthBitKid_, it's a file03:48
vahelordcirth: tar -pxvf archive.tar , yes?03:48
lordcirthvahe, looks right03:48
vahethanks03:49
BitKid_should i past it lordcirth?03:49
BitKid_the debug file or any othere one?03:49
lordcirthBitKid_, the installer/DEBUG sounds useful03:50
Bashing-omksft_: Another thought ! What kernel are you booting ? show ' uname -r ' .03:51
BitKid_http://paste.ubuntu.com/23069030/03:51
BitKid_thank you lordcirth for helping03:51
lordcirthBitKid_, np.  I don't see anything there about crashing...  This is puzzling.03:53
BitKid_you feel my pain i see lol03:53
BitKid_any suggestions at all im willing to try03:53
lordcirthBitKid_, you say that other distros crash the same?03:53
lordcirthBitKid_, are you sure the hard drive is intact?03:54
BitKid_yes or install and just stall.03:55
BitKid_ok harddrives, I have 1 pcie ssd one ssd 2 1t+ tried on both the ssd03:56
couerdechienHi,I just installed kubuntu 16.04 from an iso, and it is infinitely stuck on detecting my hardware, meaning that it does not have the proper drivers and is extremely slow. A search reveals that this is because a package called apt-xapian-index is missing, but I have no idea how to get it. I tried the #kubuntu channel but it's dead right now. Can anyone here help me?03:56
lordcirthcouerdechien, to install a package?  open a terminal and 'sudo apt install  apt-xapian-index'03:57
legendrehi hi03:58
couerdechienoh duh I forgot to type install.... I am mostly new to linux if that wasn't obvious. Sorry about that.03:58
couerdechienThank you.03:58
MojtabaHello, I am using system proxy by ssh, and the problem is that thunderbird gives me connection refused for gmail. Do you know what should I do?03:58
legendrewhere can you find the +actual+ current CPU speed/03:58
lordcirthlegendre, you mean what power management has clocked it at the moment?03:58
legendrelordcirth: precisely.03:59
lordcirthlegendre, cpufreq-info03:59
lordcirthlegendre, or cat /proc/cpuinfo03:59
lordcirthNote that downclocking is actually per core03:59
antonio_hhhh03:59
legendrelordcirth: I don't see it in /cpuinfo/04:00
legendrejust the reported speeds04:00
legendrelordcirth: does cpufreq rely on lmsensors?04:00
lordcirthlegendre, 'grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo'04:01
SchrodingersScatlegendre: cpu MHz04:01
BitKid_i feel bad for asking for suggestions lordcirth u seem to be the only one available to help xd04:01
lordcirthBitKid_, no problem, if I wanted to leave, I would :P04:01
lordcirthBitKid_, unfortunately, I am running low on ideas04:01
legendreone sec..04:02
BitKid_:) so the hype is true i see best comunity=ubuntu04:02
BitKid_:(04:02
lordcirthBitKid_, pastebin the output of 'dmesg'04:02
lordcirthThis is the kernel log04:02
BitKid_what is the dir so i can cat it04:02
legendrelordcirth: SchrodingersScat : that's interesting, I don't recall finding dynamic CPU cpeeds under /cpuinfo/04:03
legendreIs that something that arrived with lmsensors/04:03
legendre?04:03
legendresorry, rented KB04:03
lordcirthlegendre, you mean /proc/cpuinfo?  Been there for a while that I remember04:03
lordcirthMine shows 800Mhz, sometimes 1600, it's certainly dynamic04:04
SchrodingersScatlordcirth: now you're a believer, cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i "cpu mhz"04:04
lordcirthSchrodingersScat, ? why ?04:04
lordcirthSchrodingersScat, useless use of 'cat' award? :P04:05
BitKid_lordcirthh where is the 'dmesg' found??04:05
lordcirthBitKid_, I said, it's a command.04:05
BitKid_oh sry sweet tho pasting now04:06
SchrodingersScatlordcirth: oh, wow, you got me04:06
BitKid_omg wow this is weird i think ur right the problem is here04:06
legendreinteresting. Thanks for clearing that up.04:06
BitKid_http://paste.ubuntu.com/23069122/04:07
legendreI'd been having a serious slowdown issue, and was trying to track dynamic cpu speeds. When using cpuinfo, etc. I just didn't seem to see anything other than the 2400MHz spec. clock speed.04:07
BitKid_thats a problem right?04:07
legendreIs the Core2 Duo have two physical cores, or are they logical?04:08
legendre*Does the04:08
lordcirthBitKid_, you're installing from a USB?04:08
* pimpMyNick wants to know when Xorg is gonna fully replaced with Mir04:08
BitKid_Yes I am04:08
lordcirthlegendre, 2 physical, no hyperthreading04:08
BitKid_I have a cd too04:08
lordcirthBitKid_, does the CD not work either?04:09
BitKid_well this time i chose the cd option04:09
lordcirthBecause this seems to imply that a "new" USB is being plugged in approx twice a second...04:09
legendrelordcirth: this machine ran great, then "suddenly" it fell on its face. So slow it was borderline un-usable.04:09
lordcirthYet there is no disconnect, which is strange04:09
BitKid_with both i would get black led thign where it teslls me gr: failed to load something04:09
legendrethis was after installing the latest LTS04:10
lordcirthlegendre, and the normal clock rate of your machine is 2400?04:10
legendrelordcirth: yes.04:10
BitKid_Should i do with but unplug the usb?04:10
BitKid_do it with Cd but unplug usb ?04:10
legendreturns out, that the thermal junction tween the CPU and swink had brokebn down..04:10
legendreand the CPU was overheating, and the BIOS must have been clocking it down.04:10
legendreis 145-150F that hot for a C2 Duo 2400??04:11
lordcirthlegendre, that might be.  Hardware problems can be hard to diagnose04:11
legendrewhen it hit like 160, it panicked and did a hw shutdown.04:11
ksft_Bashing-om: 3.13.0-93-generic04:11
legendrethat's when I was like "WTF", this is overheating?04:11
lordcirthlegendre, 65 C?  higher than I'd like.04:11
Ben64legendre: join ##hardware for hardware issues, and use celcius, nobody knows cpu temp in fahrenheit04:11
legendrewell, it was it.. I replaced the paste, the temp fell to 115-125F04:12
legendreand speeds are great again04:12
BitKid_lordcirth i have an option to install since this is acting as a trial boot, I unpluged the usb and trying04:12
legendreit was all so "silent" that I had no idea what the heck was going on.04:12
Bashing-omksft_: Well .. that is good . but bad such that my thought falls through .04:13
legendreno "Hey a-hole, yr maching is hot, and we're cuttig back the clock bigtime"04:13
legendre150F = 65-66C04:13
legendreI thought CPU were good to 85C.04:14
legendreaka 210F04:14
lordcirthlegendre, there is a difference between "burns at X" and "should operate at X"04:14
BitKid_one quick question lordcirth im not sure, but dose it matter if i use "SCSI4 (0,0,0) (sda)" or "SCSI8 (0,0,0) (sdd)"04:14
lordcirthBitKid_, well that would depend what drive you want to install to?04:14
legendrelordcirth: yes, I mean to say that 85C was within the operating range.04:14
legendreif not not04:15
lordcirthlegendre, the manufacturer listed TjMax is "point at which it melts" not what it should actually run at long-term04:15
BitKid_got u04:15
legendrelordcirth: yes, I understand TjMax, design center, design max, temp. overload, etc.04:16
legendreI do electronics. I was just surprised to find a modern CPU that balked at 145-150F (65-70C)04:16
* lordcirth shrugs04:17
legendrethen again, I didn't catch the temp just before it shutdown04:17
sho__sorry. my modem turned off and then I've been flagged as spambot/openproxy.04:18
sho__so, continuing from before.04:19
sho__after I sync my /home to /media/home, I want to encrypt it. How do I do that/04:19
sho__?04:19
sho__basically, the new partition has been encrypted.04:20
sho__any help?04:20
lordcirthsho__, you copied the .ecryptfs to the new partition in the same location?  Should be able to mount it in fstab and see if it works.04:22
sho__eh... mount it in fstab? edit /etc/fstab then use mount -a?04:24
sho__basically the files is all copied from /home to /media/home04:25
BitKid_lordcirth it failed again here is the pastbin http://paste.ubuntu.com/23069187/ also it failed at teh "copying file..." phase04:25
sho__but the Ubuntu guide doesn't specify on how I encrypt the new folder.04:25
sho__https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving04:25
sho__that's the guide I followed.04:25
lordcirthsho__, crypttab should already be set to mount /home/.ecryptfs/sho at /home/sho.  So as long as you mount the new /home correctly with home/.ecryptfs/ copied over, it should work.04:26
sho__using ls -a on /media/home/ gives me encryptfs. But it is colored differently?04:26
pimpMyNickI need to add resolution of 1600x900 on my Full HD monitor, using ubuntu 16.04. Xrandr and Xorg-conf method is not working, although it works on all previous versions. May I get some help from someone?04:27
sho__as, in the old /home, it is colored light blue and in /media/home, it is colored the same as other folder.04:27
lordcirthsho__, 'ecryptfs' or '.ecryptfs' ?04:28
lordcirthsho__, also check with ls -l that the permissions match04:29
sho__lordcirth... remember that I haven't yet booting up liveCD and do the second command provided in the guide. it is with dot.04:29

Harishello all05:49
helplessi have two running ubuntu systems (i cant use them at the same time but i can mount the respective partition). what is the simplest way to copy data from an encrypted home directory to the other encrypted home directory?05:49
Harismy apache2 install has borked between reboots yesterday evening. now when I try to install, reinstall or remove it, the process goes to a certain point and then stops there and just remains there. It neither concludes, nor does it engage CPU for doing something. Is there a way to troubleshoot these scripts or find their point of failure ? with bash scripts, one can run them with bash -x script.sh that shows all05:51
Haris the steps it is performing, so one can find out where the syntax error or any other problem is. is there a way to find our what is stopping aptitude, apt-get, dpkg from completing their work in this regard ?05:51
HarisI'm on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS05:51

Hariswhat's plymouth ?06:02
mgedminboot splash screen thing06:03
mgedminHaris: I would try 'sudo killall plymouth' to get dpkg unstuck06:03
geirhaross`: mh, but networking isn't handled by init.d. Then I don't think there's any good way to ensure it06:03
mgedminand then I would probably reboot to see if that fixes whatever-is-broken because life's too short for debugging06:03
geirhaBetter rewrite it as an upstart/systemd job06:03
mgedminok, I see lightdm is running 'plymouth quit'06:04
mgedminplymouthd itself should only be running during system boot06:04
mgedmin(it's needed to synchronize messages from system services that are being started in parallel so they don't get mixed in the middle of a word or somethig; the splash screen thing is really secondary)06:05
mgedminand when the system is done booting, plymouthd should quit, afaiu06:05
mgedminfor some reason it doesn't on your system06:05
mgedminwell, didn't06:06
mgedmindoes it do that on every boot?06:06
Hariswhen I killed plymouth pids' it gave me msg on cli/shell that it restarted apache06:06
Harisdoes that mean, someone on the console worked on this ?06:06
Harisfrom GUI (physically) on the box ?06:07
mgedminno06:07
mgedminyou'd see shells spawned by getty06:07
mgedminthis is just something getting stuck06:07
mgedmincurious to see those whoopsie processes06:07
Harisyep. need to check what is getting stuck06:07
mgedminnah, maybe that's normal06:08
mgedminwhoopsie is the error reporting daemon; but I'm not sure if it's always running, or if it only spawns when it detects a crash06:08
mgedminI don't see whoopsie on my ubuntu 14.04 server -- but then maybe it's a desktop-only thing06:08
Harisat least there should be some output .. somewhere that one can look into to make things right06:08
mgedminmy desktop (well, laptop) is running 16.0406:08
Hariswhat's the apache, php versions on 16.x06:09
mgedmin/var/log/syslog is worth a check06:09
mgedminif you see anything there about plymouth, pastebin maybe?06:09
Harischecking06:09

zetherooIn 16.04 I am trying to encrypt my home folder with 'sudo ecryptfs-migrate-home -u user' and it asks for a 'login passphrase' of the user account I am trying to encrypt, however it doesn't accept my login password (which I am guessing is my 'passphrase') - what am I missing here?07:44
ouroumovzetheroo, are you following this guide? http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/07:49

soLucieni want to send all http requests through a "tunnel"07:52
zetherooouroumov: ok, I'll try something else. The user account I am trying to encrypt is one that is made with PBIS (connector to Active Directory) so maybe that's the issue.07:52

mgedminDTime: dtime is the inode's deletion time, according to Google (http://ext4magic.sourceforge.net/inode_en.html)08:01
DTimethanks mgedmin should i let fsck fix it?08:04
mgedminuh, wait just a second08:05
mgedmin/dev/sda?08:05
mgedminthat's not a partition, that's the entire disk08:06
DTimewell sda508:06
DTimeit's a partition08:06
mgedminah08:06
DTimeyeah sorry08:06
DTimei'm geetting a BUNCH of prompts08:06
mgedminyou unmounted it first, yes?08:06
DTimeyeah08:06
mgedminyou said you're "turning [it] to ext4", so what filesystem was there before?08:07
DTimewell i'm running fsck now; im getting a bunch of prompts on fixing something but idk what im doing tbh08:07
DTime...ok so don't laugh08:07
DTimeit was ext4, which i turned into swap because i pressed 5 instead of 608:07
lol521w08:08
mgedminthat's the way with fsck; you answer "yes" to all prompts and hope for the best... (and try to remember where the backups are, just in case)08:08
DTimeso im turning swap back into ext408:08
mgedminoh, you ran mkswap on it by accident?  ouch ouch ouch08:08
DTimei had chest pains, for real08:08
DTimeok so you think i should just say yes to everything08:08
mgedminI would mkfs and restore from backup08:08
mgedminif you don't have a backup, uh...08:08
mgedminhow important was the data there?08:09
zetheroohow do you check whether or not your home folder is encrypted?08:09
mgedminzetheroo: pastebin the output of 'mount' and we'll tell you08:09
DTimenot VERY important, but it did take a while to gather08:09
DTimei'd be happy if i got 95% of it back08:09
mgedminDTime: so the usual recommendation is to make a full copy of the partition with dd somewhere else (onto an external USB disk e.g.) before you attempt to repair it, just in case08:10
mgedminthen fsck.ext4 -y is worth a try, maybe you'll get lucky08:10
mgedminotherwise tools like photorec can maybe find something useful in the disk image08:10
mgedminthing is, fsck might damage the data instead of fixing it, if it misinterprets something08:11
DTimeright08:11
DTimey'think it'll mess up everything else as well though?08:11
DTimeor just certain files08:11
mgedminwell, it won't mess anything outside that partition08:11
mgedmininside who knows08:11
DTimeooooooh nelly08:11

DTimeand should i fix it08:13

wpdivineSorry, no idea.08:13
mgedminno idea; I'm not expert enough08:13
DTimeim not sure anyone is outside of data rcovery profesionals right08:13
DTimethis is such a colossal deal08:13
mgedminI would run fsck with the -y flag (answer yes to all prompts) because I don't understand enough to come up with correct answers08:14
mgedminand if you keep saying no, you know fsck won't fix anything08:14
mgedminand if you keep saying yes, there's a chance08:14
DTimei'm running -v atm08:14
DTimei mean -S08:14
DTimesorry08:14
DTimenot -v yet08:14

Netekhi all, I dont know if this is the right channel as it involves win10 also.  I have a local server running a webserver and ssh server.  I use this machine for development before uploading onto the public server.  Is there a way I can set a local dns in order to see vhosts from the laptop to the local server?09:24
NetekBasically what I am trying to do is if I am designing a website for a company, I could just enter http://company and load the local server project company09:24
GurgurNetek you can use /etc/hosts09:25
Gurgurfor example, you can add: 127.0.0.1 company.local09:26
Gurgurand then access through http://company.local09:26
Gurguryou can change 127.0.0.1 for any ip address you want09:26
NetekGurgur this includes on a windows machine connecting to the ubuntu local server on the network?09:26
anticomHi all. I might have made a terrible mistake: I've triggered the update from Trusty to Xenial Xerus and then locked my pc since I am at work and had to go away. Now when i try to unlock my PC it goes back straight to the login screen09:27
anticomI am able to switch to a cli screen using CTRL-ALT-F<x> and log in there09:27
Gurguron windows you have to define these directions inside C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts, and point the IP address to the IP address has the other machine on the LAN network09:27
hateballanticom: does the upgrader run in a screen? iirc it does, and perhaps you can see and reattach to it with "screen -list"09:28
NetekGurgur ok great, so I would have to set this twice.  once on the local server and one on the laptop09:28
anticomhateball: i get "application >>screen<< is currently not installed"09:29
hateballanticom: oh as it runs as root it'll be "sudo screen -list"09:29
hateballanticom: hmmm.09:29
anticomhateball: however aftere logging in in this CLI session thing i get "*** Restart of your system is required ***"09:30
hateballanticom: do you see any running dpkg process? "ps aux|grep dpkg"09:30
anticomhateball: but if i run htop i can still see "/usr/bin/python3 /tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader ....." running09:30
anticomroot is running "[dpkg] <defunc>" :/09:31
hateballanticom: yeah but that might just be waiting for input to close/reboot. the upgrade itself might actually be finished09:31
anticomSo the computer does not reboot automatically once it09:31
anticom's done09:31
hateballanticom: Nope09:32
hateballanticom: had it been running long?09:32
anticomwell there where still quite some packages left to be installed09:32
anticomIs there any log i can look into to see why i can't log in graphically hateball ?09:33
anticommaybe it's something i can fix (?)09:33
hateballanticom: well it is possible to kill the upgrade process and then finish it manually from tty09:33
hateballanticom: usually such errors are logged in ~/.xsession-errors09:34
hateballanticom: so running sudo screen did not work either?09:35
rembohello everyone , i have a usb hdd drive with bad sectors, how can i isolate them using ubuntu?09:35

Guest78437how can I check if that port is open09:36
Guest78437??09:36

anticomhateball: .xsession-errors also says "init: invalid option: --user \\ Try `init --help' for more information.09:37
anticomhateball: might it be, that initd has been replaced with systemd already or something like this?09:38
hateballanticom: yes, probably stuck in an incomplete state then09:38
anticomhateball: is there any way i can restart xserver w/o loosing my session?09:38

anticomhateball: so what am i supposed to do now?09:42
hateballanticom: I suppose you could kill the upgrade process and then have a look at the second post here to fix things http://askubuntu.com/questions/346678/how-do-i-resume-a-release-upgrade09:42
hateballanticom: by "try the upgrade again" they mean to run the upgrader from cli with "sudo do-release-upgrade"09:42

MacroManI'm attempting to upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04, but it's failing on upgrading mysql with the error "unknown option '--log-slow-queries'".10:25
MacroManCan I just remove this option from my.cnf?10:25
anticomMacroMan: It's just a flag to enable logging of long-running-queries. So if it's not a production server and you don't rely on that information IMO you should be able to just remove it, yes10:28
MacroMananticom, Okidoki. Thanks.10:29

HanumaanI have 2 OS Fedora and Ubuntu .. when I upgraded to 16.04 it gave errors saying that shim-signed  "grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory" .. but as grub2 is managed by fedora and so how to say ubuntu don't look for EFI and install it?11:00
ikoniathis is a big problem for how grub2 works11:00
ikoniayou can't tell grub to behave like that, as grub will manage itself,11:00

So i have to install them all like "sudo apt-get install vim vim-X vim-XX" ?11:17

MWMI cannot reach the network from my ubuntu server 16.04 (on a VM)14:19
YankDownUnderMWM: When you configured the networking for the VM, did you use NAT or bridged?14:19
MWMI used both actually and switch back and forth at need.  Nat works.  Bridged (which I need for proxy use) hangs on "getting headers" when I update14:20
MWMI basically keep the Nat adapter for when I have to use apt14:21
YankDownUnderMWM: If NAT works, wouldn't you want to do your updates via the NAT connection? I'm not going to ask about why you're switching, but it does throw a spanner in the works.14:22
DArqueBishopYankDownUnder: presumably his VM doesn't have access to the proxy, while the host machine does.14:23
MWMNAT is my workaround for the issue.  I need an IP from DHCP for my uses and would like to solely work on the Bridged adapter... I just see no reason why NAT would work but not Bridged14:23

MWMDArqueBishop:  what do you mean?  is it my proxy on my machine?  yes14:25

bulgakobotSorry for lengthy post, wanted to make sure I got everything.15:06
bulgakobotI just built a new pc with an i5-6500 and an RX 480. It has 8 gb RAM and an SSD. I installed Windows 10 and it's working very fast with no problems afaik, drivers installed, etc. However, when I tried to install Ubuntu Gnome, I had a serious problem. After overwriting Gnome with Kubuntu, I had more or less the same problem.15:06
bulgakobotWhen I finished installing from a bootable usb, I immediately noticed that the os (happened with both gnome and kde) was very slow. Taking 5 seconds to do stuff like dragging a window across the screen. Web searching suggested this was because of gpu drivers not being installed right. (the gpu itself is detected by lshw, and my monitor is plugged into it and receiving a signal, but is not listed on system information/about device)15:06
bulgakobot. On gnome, I updated everything, restarted, and then tried going to amd's site and installing amdgpu-pro, and the script ran fine but when I rebooted it froze at the gnome logo and had graphical glitches. The installation was unusablea so I started over with kubuntu, but had the same slow performance.15:06
bulgakobotKubuntu's driver manager is apparently fucked up right now and endlessly detecting hardware (known bug), but even after (probably) fixing it by installing and updating apt-xapian-index, then restarting, the problems continued and there was nothing displayed in the driver manager about the gpu. ubuntu-drivers devices only listed something about the cpu (which was also in the driver manager).15:06

fyrrilanyone have an answer to this question? It's the only thing that came up for me and it's unanswered :( http://superuser.com/questions/1078552/how-to-force-rsync-to-stop-if-destination-disk-is-full15:29

OnceMeBluesKaj-pi: /dev/sdb1    /home/mysys/Videos/    ntfs    defaults    0    015:30
OnceMeis that ok?15:30
rypervenchefyrril: You'res trying to continue to rsync TO the disk that is full?15:30
_adbzetheroo: yes. it's called a heredoc. many languages, including bash, support them. i'm just using file redirection so that the contents of the doc get written to the file. of course, since it's a script, you'll want to chmod +x myscript.sh15:31
zetheroo _adb: cool, it works like I need it to. Is there a way to also make the script executable in the same command?15:31
OnceMeis that ok for my mount????15:31
fyrrilrypervenche, in my case I've started an rsync that has since filled the destination disk and continues to run15:31
fyrrilrypervenche, from reading that post it looks like when it finishes it will just give me errors about no space after the fact15:32
BluesKaj-piOnceMe, 0   1 or  0   2, leave the 0   0 for your / if you use a / partition15:32
rypervenchefyrril: Try adding --inplace15:32

codingCookiehey guys i'm trying to remove i3 completly, because i failed the config. Even if i'm trying to purge the package it is still avaible17:20
nrdbhow do i get "apt-get update" to redownload all it stuff?17:21
YankDownUndercodingCookie: So you don't want to just delete the configurations, right? You want all of the packages gone?17:21
codingCookieYankDownUnder: yes17:21
YankDownUndercodingCookie: The actual config lies in ~/.config/i3 => to remove the package(s), it's probably best to do so through a package manager like Synaptic...unless you're bent on doing it through the terminal...?17:23
ioriacodingCookie, i3-wm  is still installed ?17:23
FlannelcodingCookie: "i3" package is a metapackage, looks like the "real" package is i3-wm, and perhaps i3lock and i3status.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/i3  Purge those packages.17:23
Flannelnrdb: Can you clarify what you mean by "all of its stuff"?17:24
nrdbFlannel, when doing an "apt-get update" it downloads files (or something) I want get it to redownload everything again.17:25
Flannelnrdb: to what end?17:25
nrdbFlannel, it is erroring, so I thought getting a fresh copy might fix things17:25
mmethI installed blueman to connect a device, purged the package but it left the toolbar icon behind. how do I find the package name it belongs to? can't tell using dpkg17:26
naccnrdb: what is the error?17:26
codingCookieYankDownUnder: i deletet it allready trought the terminal, ioria it's not installed, im trying to purge all of these thanks for the advise17:26
fruitFlyCan I put an SSD in an ASUS K455LA-WX611D?17:27
Flannelnrdb: So, that would require re-installing everything, not just re-downloading everything.  Which... is a much larger task.  You should narrow the packages down, to reinstall fewer things.  (It's rare that that would be the issue)17:27
nrdbFlannel, atm I don't want to re-install anything ... I want to get 'update' lists again17:29

thekrynn_all the scripts are 700, owned by root19:16
thekrynn_so i know that to be true19:16
thekrynn_they will show up in screen -ls for a good amount of time, but randomly will drop out19:16
thekrynn_this seems to only be happening on one or two machines in our whole cluster19:17
Picithekrynn_: I'm honestly not sure about this... hmm19:18
thekrynn_so its safe to say this is not a typical thing and somehting's probably up?19:19
thekrynn_ive combed the /var/log/ logs like 100 times and havent seen anything19:19

EriC^^how can you tell what command is running an application? (ie: Files, Software Center, Archive Manager)?19:37
ash_workzokay, to avoid accidental xy, I should probably explain my objective; I wanted to open a file with the archive manager from the terminal (since the file location was convenient) but running (presumably ./archive-manager somefile.tar.gz # (or whatever the command would be) — but I don't know what command would launch that application; and ps aux doesn't really help because I don't know what...19:39
ash_workz...I'm looking for, so I figured I could launch the application and then there'd be a way to tell what's running that right now19:39
ash_workzEriC^^: ^19:39
akikEriC^^: start the app, then run "ps -ef | sort -n -k 2,2" which will sort the pids numerically19:40
EriC^^ash_workz: try xdg-open /path/to/archive19:41

zero_vectorI'm on a brand new install of ubuntu 16.04. I'm having trouble connecting to irc.undernet.org using irssi. It says I'm 'G-lined' for having a virus or trojan.

sus8766hi! i need a little help with firewall on server; i want to redirect port 22 (ssh) to port 2222. i'm using ufw and already done prerouting in before.rules ... the problem is that i need to open port 2222 along port 22 (it's logical since we are just rerouting traffic). is possible to reroute this traffic without opening port 2222, so that only 22 could be used outside?22:16
xgptis lubuntu the same underlying OS as ubuntu? do they share repos?22:19
V7Why you can't start service on 2222 port ?22:19
ckorzhiksorry, i had reboot my machine. Am I missed something about encryption?22:19

sus8766V7: i have service on 2222 port and i've done redirect from 22 to 2222; i want to close port 2222 down, so the users can't connect from 22 and 2222 - but would still like that this redirect would work (currently both 22 and 2222 must be allowed on firewall because if i remove 2222, then redirect doesn't work)22:21
sus8766but the ssh can't run on 22 since it's not run by root22:22
bekkssus8766: So run it on 2222 and create an iptables rule redirecting (and allowing) traffic from 22 to 2222.22:23
bekkssus8766: Are you actually trying to create NAT forwarding rules? :)22:23
sus8766bekks: yes, this already works (i added prerouting rule to ufw's before.rules). the only problem now is that user can connect to both 22 and 2222 - i want to enable only 22 for them22:24
bekksso disallow external access to 2222, and redirect *:22 to localhost:222222:25

bipulI have created a group name "control". And i have assigned it to user "bipul" through which i am log in.Now when i am trying to check it is there in bipul via id bipul, i am unable to see that group name.22:26

bipulI have a file name roster.txt, which has following user group ownership with permissions -rw-rw-r-- 1 bipul bipul 0 Aug 20 03:27 roster.txt22:30
boscowhat is the off topic chanell just to make sure i have it correct wont let me join22:30
sus8766bekks: i have this rule in before.rules ... -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 22 -j REDIRECT --to-port 2222 ... and when both 22 and 2222 are opened, the connection is successful; if i disable port 2222, then it doesn't work anymore. the problem is that ufw recognizes this redirect as direct access to port 2222 from original ip (not from localhost as it would be allowed)22:30

bipulNow my question, since i am into bipul account, and i am unable to reset the group owner field with chgrp or chown : why?22:30
dewwiisus8766: maybe have a firewall rule to blocks * to 22, but allows your system's IP and the loopback ip?22:31
bipulIt says chgrp: changing group of 'roster.txt': Operation not permitted22:31
bekkssus8766: you didnt read what I wrote. You need to disallow EXTERNAL access, so you need to forward to a different IP. Currently, incomingip:22 -> incomingip:2222 --> disable 2222, boom. you need: incomingip:22 -> localhost:2222 --> disable incomingip:2222, everything works.22:32

boscobekks, question asked22:35

catbeardbipul: sudo chgrp control roster.txt22:55
bipulcatbeard, No sudo, why should i used sudo when i am owning the file.22:56
dewwiiwell sure, use super powers :D22:56
catbeardbecause you're changing it to another group/user22:56
catbeardnot your own22:56
catbeardthat requires sudo22:56
bipulNo the concept says, A file owner and root can do any changes with that file.22:56
catbeardor root privileges22:56
lordcirthchown does indeed require root22:57
bipulSo now i am the owner of the file. And i have full rights to do anything with that file.So i tried with chgrp and chown both are failed.22:57
catbeardbipul: yes, you need sudo/root to use chown to change owner/group of a file to another user22:58
dewwiino... i just tested this. chgrp works as long as i am part of that group22:58

huadsatAre spaces in file names a problem? When I try to cd to them I get "no such file or directory" etc but I can see them in the ls23:48
Bashing-omhuadsat: A space in linbu is a delimiter . such that a file name - this one - is seen as 2 distinct intities . there are means to escape the space .23:50
dancingd3mon__use "NAMES WITH SPEACES"23:50
OerHekswho invented that, spaces in names23:51
huadsatgeez the quotes thing seems so simple in retrospect23:52
huadsathow do I open files via the terminal? Are the commands type dependent or can you just type "open filex" etc?23:52
devan./filename23:53
reisioxdg-open23:53
reisioanything that tab-completes will work23:53
reisioor you can quote if you want23:53
reisioor both23:53
Bashing-omhuadsat: See terminal command ' man less ' .23:54
nacchuadsat: i think the question is, to me, what do you mean by "open" when you're at the terminal? Do you mean emulate the effect of opening in the GUI file browser? that's xdg-open, I'd say23:54
huadsat./ said "permission denied"23:54
nacchuadsat: ./filename will attempt to execute said file23:54
nacchuadsat: `less filename` will attempt to use less to 'page' the contents fo filename; which will work for some filetypes and not others23:54
huadsatnacc: yeah I meant to execute/open it with the appropriate application23:54
nacchuadsat: i think xdg-open is probably what you want, then, but I do find the question sort of confusing (just because I rarely/never need to use xdg-open)23:56
huadsatnacc: I was just exploring the terminal...and see how to cd and ls etc..just wondered if there was a command I didn't see to open things. the ./ said permission denied on a 7z file...i was expecting it to ask for a password'23:57
nacchuadsat: "open" is context-dependent, I think that's what you're running into23:57
nacchuadsat: where context is the file's type (roughly)23:57
huadsatalso...when I type "cd && ls Documents it doesn't actuall cd...just lists23:58
huadsatcan I not do it all at once?23:58
huadsatchange to and list?23:58
nacchuadsat: cd && ls Documents does the following: it executes `cd`, and if that returns success it then runs `ls Documents`23:58
nacchuadsat: if `cd` failed, it would not run `ls Documents`23:59
nacchuadsat: I think what you wanted to type was `cd Documents && ls`23:59
huadsatnacc: well it does list what is in documents...but the prompt doesn't change into /Documents23:59
huadsatah ok23:59
nacchuadsat: yes, as I just said, it only executed `cd` which changes you to your home directory23:59
