[00:41] hi All - help... ! I know nothing about this and an screwed as the guy who normally does this is awol - I need to setup mapping for nginx [00:42] I 've mapped it according to a link i found but its' not honouring the mapping . please help!!! [00:48] get prof help if this is too heavy for volunteers [00:48] :-P [00:50] lol - we have to start somewhere - so might as well start here .... i really need to get thsi running .. [00:58] fels: how many employees are there in this company [00:58] which one ? [00:58] tomreyn: ? [00:58] the one you're trying to get the nginx stuff fixed for [00:59] 2 - its a stat up [01:00] so you are one founder and the other foudner is absnet without leave? [01:00] well that's more of a conclusion than a question really. [01:00] you should put your configuration on a pastebin [01:01] !pastebin | fels [01:01] fels: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [01:01] since this will make it public to thew world, before you paste it there, you should redact sensitive info [01:02] i.e. maybe replace domain names, peoples names in comments, ip addresses etc. [01:03] and then explain what you need to map where, and how you can tell that it does not currently work. [01:03] tomreyn: no - I'm not the founder - just hte helpful guy that got roped in :) [01:04] i see [01:06] when you put multiple names in the .conf file do you seperate it with SPCE ? eg : server_name JOE.mainsite.com BLOGSS.mainsite.com ? [01:06] yes [01:07] but you end the line with a ; [01:10] (great - tomreyn thanks [01:11] you can use "sudo nginx configtest" to check whether your configuration files' syntax looks fine. [01:12] Thnks tomreyn- That will come in handy - what if i need that to map to JOE.mainsite.com/SOMETHING ? [01:13] are you saying that you want all http requests directed to http://JOE.mainsite.com to go to http://JOE.mainsite.com/SOMETHING instead? [01:13] yeah [01:14] is that possible ? [01:14] fo sure, as long as requests to http://JOE.mainsite.com actually end up on the server you are working on [01:16] http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html#return [01:18] so withint the server{} block add a location{} block. and in this 'location' block, add a 'return' statement [01:19] server { ...; location / { return 302 http://JOE.mainsite.com/SOMETHING ; } ... } [01:19] roughly this, fels [01:19] thank you tomreyn [01:20] this wont redirect requests initially made to http://JOE.mainsite.com/xxx or to httpS://JOE.mainsite.com though [01:21] i.e. only requests for the main web page at the / URI will be redirected [01:23] so it's quite late here, and i really need to get some sleep. AKA, good luck. [01:27] ok tomreyn thks for the help - [01:27] where ar you based ? [01:29] to the south east [02:38] does anyone know how to setup minidnla with an external hard drive? [02:41] I need some help with hosts and postfix/ptr record settings...my ptr record is mydomain.com but my postfix myhostname setting is servername.mydomain.com and my hosts file lists the ip address as servername.mydomain.com also. [02:42] its a web server that hosts multiple domains...so do I need to change my ptr record to servername.mydomain.com or change my hosts file to remove the servername? [02:51] http://hastebin.com/okixudaral.css here's my /etc/hosts file [02:52] edited to protect the guilty (xx.xx.xx.xx is my ip address and my real domain names and server name is in there) [02:52] also...servername is not www...should it be?

I'll look. [10:00] hi! can anyone here tell me how can i setup the apache server to listen only on 443 port ? [10:00] thank you [10:02] cpaelzer: that failure looks familiar.

[12:51] coreycb: oslo.i18n and oslo.services i think [12:53] zul, ok [12:53] beisner, can you promote mistral and neutron to newton-proposed please? [12:54] coreycb: thanks [12:56] zul, is it neutron maybe for s390x? [12:56] coreycb: yeah but i tried reproducing yesterday and I was able to reproduce but mysql might be in a werid state on s390 [12:57] i really dont know [12:58] zul, do you have an s390x instance I could use? [12:58] coreycb: i do [13:08] hey all [13:08] Can someone help me setup SSL on Ubuntu 16... ? [13:09] fels: in what? apache, nginx? [13:09] nginx hateball [13:09] fels: do you have a commerical certificate? [13:09] yes - one was purchased - [13:10] so the main daomin lets say SITE.com is hosted on a differnt plan with the same company [13:11] I have this ubuntu VM and it will have multiple submdomains eg : api.SITE.com and app.SITE.com and stuff.SITE.com [13:11] I would like those to be SSL secured [13:11] well you define server_name in your config so that shouldnt be a concern [13:11] fels: so you got a wildcard cert? [13:11] for SITE.com [13:11] yes [13:12] Usually whatever commercial seller of certs you use has a guide for how to use them [13:12] so 1st question - should the cert be installed on the SITE.com server ? [13:12] fels: Otherwise this is short and simple https://www.digicert.com/ssl-certificate-installation-nginx.htm === topi`_ is now known as topi` [13:12] fels: eh... the cert needs to be on any machine serving a website [13:13] fels: so if you api, app, etc all on different ones, they all need the cert [13:13] those will be on the same VM but differnt ports [13:14] well, you only need your key, cert and intermediate in one place, then you have a config file for each website pointing to the certs [13:14] main SITE.com is on a differnt machine its a marketing site so they not to concerned just yet [13:14] If you read the link it is quite clear [13:15] jamespage: not sure if I asked that earlier already, but can we get ceph 10.2.3 into xenial-updates? there's lot of important bug-fixes in that release, in particular for rgw [13:15] hateball: are you about for a few hours in case i hit a wall ? I woudl really appreciate it [13:16] fels: on and off, I am supposed to be working after all :) [13:16] :) - i understand [13:20] hateball: do i need OPen ssl ? how do i know if is installed ? [13:24] fels: if you have nginx installed you have openssl [13:28] Great "_ [13:35] Hello folks, We are running icehouse and we may have to upgrade the kernel from 3.13 to 4.2. Do you think this can affect the openstack installation in any way? [13:36] I mean openstack icehouse packages and willy kernel? Will this work? [13:36] the kernel is your hypervisor [13:36] so the kernel will have an impact to your virtualization stack [13:38] zul, I couldn't recreate the autopkgtest failure. let's see what the next run shows now that you are dumping the log file. [13:38] coreycb: ok [13:39] ikonia: This is the reason why we have to upgarde the kernel, we have problems in our virtualization layer. VM is hanging. [13:40] so why did you upgrade the kernel ? [13:40] zul, I'm looking at the heat failures for ocata [13:40] coreycb: im doing neutron....yaaay [13:41] zul, k [13:41] zul, cinder has some issues too so I'll take that [13:41] coreycb: i saw...it looks like to do something with the newer os-brick [13:41] coreycb: sorry :) [13:42] quick syslog-ng question.....(can never get anyone in #syslog-ng to respond) i have a huge list of subnets. i have a large list of subnets in cidr notation....can i put those into a file, and have syslog-ng read that for the netmask filter? i don't want to have tp manage them in the syslog-ng config file [13:42] the config file format does inlude and "include" directive [14:04] zul, ah yeah so I think we need to be careful of bumping deps before they land in upper-constraints (os-brick) [14:05] coreycb: yeah [14:06] coreycb: was a bit overzealous [14:08] zul, bug 1638576 [14:08] bug 1638576 in Cinder "ocata unit test failures with os-brick 1.7.0" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1638576 === seg_ is now known as seg [14:17] hi all [14:18] got a slight problem [14:18] by stupid mistake deleted daemon system user from 16.04 server [14:18] well, not me manually [14:18] script i used did [14:19] how can i re add it the right way? [14:19] ouch... [14:19] yeah [14:19] already emailed script dev [14:19] my mate used nick daemonfor script to add [14:20] then removed that user and script simply removed damn daemon user from the system [14:20] luckily didnt reboot the server after that [14:20] heh [14:22] so what exactly was deleted? can't you just restore /etc/passwd? [14:22] can i just add to etc/passwd and etc/shadow daemon user? [14:23] or is there some commands [14:23] i mean don't quote me on this but as far as i know these should be the only files that matter [14:24] but better wait for a second opinion on that [14:24] cool, checking goolge meanwhile but cant find much :( [14:24] what did the script do exactly? delete the line with deamon from /etc/passwd? [14:25] you likely want to ensure to get it the same gid/uid it had before which likely was "1" [14:26] same if you had any group memberships of or to it [14:26] binia: ^^ [14:26] well it first added daemon as normal user, it said that the user exists, so it created home directory, added vsftp login etc [14:26] then my mate wanted to test user removal [14:26] and it did get rid of daemon user from the system [14:26] haha oh man ^^ [14:27] so deleted from /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, group all that [14:27] :-/ [14:27] restore backup? [14:27] didnt have one [14:27] heh [14:27] outch [14:27] this server shouldnt be even touched [14:27] uuuuh nice ^^ [14:28] but from what i see uid was 1 etc for that user [14:28] binia: you might already be doomed, but in case you want to try to set the assumed old gid is like this: groupadd --system --gid 1 daemon [14:28] as its missing from /etc/passwd [14:28] similar for the user [14:28] with uid [14:29] ok will try it [14:29] gonna be scared to reboot it now [14:29] wait [14:29] since you have to create the user from scratch [14:29] only use useradd [14:30] maybe something like: useradd --system --gid 1 --uid 1 daemon [14:30] that should autocreate the group for the user [14:30] and any old ownership on files should match again [14:30] ok let me try [14:30] but if you had any group member ship it might be lost unrecoverably [14:31] heh useradd command not found [14:31] now it's getting interesting [14:32] binia: would be of package passwd which I thought is always there === daniel is now known as Guest19937 === Guest19937 is now known as Odd_Bloke [14:38] thats a bummer :/ [14:42] binia: um if you're on 16.04 and you don't have passwd; I feel like you're not actually on 16.04 [14:43] binia: or at least not Ubuntu [14:43] binia: pastebin apt-cache policy passwd? [14:44] binia: i'm out. good luck! [14:44] http://i.imgur.com/RHma2F5.png [14:44] nacc^ [14:44] binia: urgh, dpkg -L passwd? [14:45] thats very long [14:46] sec [14:46] binia: i wonder if the PATH of the user you tried to run useradd was just wrong? [14:46] binia: try with absolute path (/usr/bin/useradd) and maybe sudo [14:47] http://pastebin.com/MLN2TUHp [14:47] ok will try [14:47] binia: yeah, so the package does provide /usr/sbin/useradd (sorry wrong path a moment ago!) [14:48] -bash: /usr/sbin/useradd: No such file or directory [14:48] too weird [14:49] binia: can you manually see if it is present? [14:49] checking [14:50] no it isnt [14:51] binia: urgh; something rather serious is wrong, I'd think then -- dpkg and your filesystem no longer agree, which means someone manually messed with it? [14:51] cpaelzer: thoughts? [14:51] thing is it did work just fine few hours ago [14:52] all went crazy after my mate added daemon user and removed it [14:52] binia: useradd did? [14:52] zul, looking at keystone for ocata [14:52] coreycb: its needs a patch for requirements.txt [14:53] its blocking on oslo.config [14:53] zul, I see tests are running ok but failing on "install: cannot stat '/<>/httpd/keystone.py': No such file or directory" [14:53] nacc, yeah [14:54] coreycb: huh [14:54] binia: that's very strange [14:54] binia: i guess as a quick test you could try reinstalling passwd and see if the binary(s) are back [14:54] ok [14:55] nacc: sorry was on other screens [14:55] * cpaelzer is reading backlog [14:55] cpaelzer: np [14:55] binia: i hope you have backups generally? might be simpler to just restore from a backup if things are this odd -- as I don't know why only one package like this would be in a bad state [14:56] zul, yeah so that's just final removal after deprecation [14:56] nope, no backup [14:56] nacc: he denied having backups before [14:56] didnt manage to do it [14:56] stupid me [14:56] one more thought on the weird passwd there but not [14:56] tried to reinstall, not working still [14:57] binia: can you run "dpkg --verify passwd" [14:57] binia: that should list any files of the package that are not where/as they should be [14:57] nothing listed at all [14:57] binia: than dpkg finds your useradd where it should be [14:57] maybe just path ... [14:58] binia: does "sudo /usr/sbin/useradd --help" work? [14:58] ah I see above you had that nacc [14:59] any other deletions by that script we are not yet aware of binia? [14:59] it does work [14:59] binia: oh sudo does work? [14:59] cpaelzer, the script is in fact seedbox script [14:59] ok, so on that you can try reestablishing your group and user [14:59] so it shouldnt really mess with system [15:00] the only thing is it managed to remove daemon user when asked [15:00] would think it removed files owned by the user? [15:00] binia: there is no auto cleanup for that [15:00] it just seems your path is weird [15:00] oh shit [15:00] useradd worked [15:00] but if the sudo to useradd works restore your group and user [15:01] but with the uid/gid magic I listed [15:01] yes [15:01] let me check did it add to files [15:01] daemon:x:1:1::/home/daemon: [15:01] in /etc/passwd [15:02] binia: so you are maybe good again :-) [15:02] useradd --system --gid 1 --uid 1 daemon [15:02] after that [15:02] thought it should look like this daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/usr/sbin/nologin [15:03] yep the nologin needs to be set [15:03] ok, command or file editing? [15:03] probably usermod -s /usr/sbin/nologin daemon? [15:04] or just forc it in with "sudo vipw" [15:04] ok vipw i heard about [15:09] cpaelzer: good call [15:09] cpaelzer: easier than figuring out usermod options :) [15:09] ok edited vipw [15:10] can someone show me how it should look with vipw -s please [15:10] i have this daemon:!:17107:::::: [15:12] or do i just delete all daemon lines from vipw -s [15:12] ? [15:20] binia: you can mod that with chage [15:20] mine looks like "daemon:*:16729:0:99999:7:::" [15:21] binia: the only meaning ful number is the date you set it which should be fine as you set it to not expire [15:22] trying to get vipw -s daemon line from exactly same server and setup [15:22] just in case [15:24] yeap, you're right cpaelzer [15:24] thanks for your help [15:24] should i be fine now, you think?

In component main, is optional.

[15:27] you think i should reinstall any packages? [15:27] jge: other way around [15:27] jge: if you install openjdk-8-jre, you are saying you want specifically version 8 of the OpenJDK JRE [15:28] jge: if you install default-jre, you're saying, give me whatever is currently the default -- and on upgrades, I keep on wanting to use the default (which might change) [15:28] Ohh I see [15:29] thanks for clarifying nacc [15:31] binia: you should be good in the degree that most things should work [15:31] nope [15:31] binia: but good is only true if you start working on an backup/restore policy asap [15:32] apt-get update && apt-get upgrade gives dpkg-preconfigure error [15:32] yay - this gets more and more complex [15:32] binia: I hope the one that gave you the script had bedded a few pardons to you already [15:33] binia: we might run out of ideas, but feel free to pastebinit the error [15:33] he's still asleep [15:33] that bastard [15:33] heh [15:34] s/insult/compensation/gc [15:34] geezus, might have to get another server and rsync users directories then reinstall [15:34] g'damn 280 gbp server :/ [15:36] what if i spin off a kvm, install 16.04 and rsync /bin /usr/bin and /usr/sbin [15:42] binia: IMHO everything else than fixing up with useradd/vipw/vigr will have even higher potential to make it worse [15:43] binia: the effect of syncing in will be to drop every group/user setup that is different which I think already makes it worse [15:43] what if i sync only missing files?

I want a trusty source for owncloud [20:00] jancoow: the owncloud team didn't want to keep distro versions updated, so they asked dstros to delete their packages [20:01] sarnold: wut 0.o .

[20:02] jancoow: downloading the package from their repository, as you were trying to do, is the thing to do if you trust them with root on your system [20:02] jancoow: maybe there's a "snap package" available, in case you don't trust them with root === nchambers is now known as Scrooge [20:55] hello im trying to connect to a ubuntu machine via ssh [20:55] it hangs at [20:55] debug1: Connection established.

[20:57] im trying to get access back to the machine [20:58] im usually logging in with my user, but this box is not included into our puppet yet [20:58] however, the ssh connection wont go further than that [21:01] DK2: does it allow ssh by root? [21:02] I'd really hope you'd get an error message of some sort back [21:02] sarnold: good point ... [21:02] DK2: what is the actaul error you get, or is it hanging there? [21:02] I've seen more than one bug report mention that changing the mtu fixes ssh logins. :/ I've always hated those, it doesn't feel like it makes sense [21:02] its just hanging there [21:02] for decades [21:03] well not decades, but i have it running for 5 minutes now [21:03] very nearly a decade :) === PaulW2U_ is now known as PaulW2U [21:14] well, #openssh says it because the server doesnt send the ssh banner [21:14] so i guess the sshd of the server is kind of broken [21:17] interesting; nc or telnet could confirm/deny that quickly anyway [21:21] which nc switches should i use when testing? [21:25] I'd just nc host 22 and see if it spits out a banner eventually [21:38] i have a ubuntu 14.04 server running a few wordpress sites; wondering what the advantage/disadvantage of upgrading to 16.04 would be? [21:48] arooni: does wordpress work on php7? === Guest40424 is now known as IdleOne [22:42] I am trying to listen to all incoming UDP traffic from a windows system on the same subnet as my ubuntu system, but nothing appears in wireshark or tcpdump. If I listen using another windows system, I have no issues. [22:43] I have tried using promisc mode on eth0, played with iptables, pimd, smcroute and all I have been able to do is send a udp packet to the target IP address, which is not what I want to do [22:43] does the switch know to also send the packets to your switch port? [22:43] sometimes you can configure a specific port as a 'span port' [22:43] which gets everything [22:44] there's no switch in between my windows system and my ubuntu system [22:45] ahh so they're directly connected? [22:45] correct [22:47] *crickets* [22:47] cdorsal: *maybe* http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/lartc.kernel.rpf.html [22:48] it doesn't exactly sound like your issue [22:48] but it's the next best guess I've got [22:48] I'll take a look [22:50] that looks like it might make it worse, but I'll try it now [22:50] hahaha [22:50] could be, could be.. [23:06] sarnold, it did not work [23:06] :( [23:08] cdorsal: hrm :( [23:11] I'm sort of surprised this is so hard to do in ubuntu [23:13] I am trying to listen to all incoming UDP traffic from a windows system on the same subnet as my ubuntu system, but nothing appears in wireshark or tcpdump. If I listen using another windows system, I have no issues. [23:13] I have tried using promisc mode on eth0, played with iptables, pimd, smcroute and all I have been able to do is send a udp packet to the target IP address, which is not what I want to do [23:21] this IRC is not nearly as helpful as the others, bummer [23:24] cdorsal: this is volunteer driven support; be patient [23:25] @nacc you helped me with an AP problem a month ago! [23:25] (many thanks) [23:25] cdorsal: heh, could be; have no recollection :) [23:37] cdorsal: more people might feel inclined to help if they could see how you are testing [23:38] like, what do you do on the windows side to create / send the apckets, and how do you try to capture them on the receiving end (ubuntu) [23:38] show commands run, output generated, optionally packet dumps. [23:39] also discuss ubuntu release + patch level + active kernel version [23:41] hmm that reminded me, https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/34 [23:41] dunno if it's related or not
