patchobriarHi all. I have been muddling through apache2 for the past two days trying to get everything up and running properly. I still cannot seem to get my images to show up on the live site. I checked both my html and css code via validation service with no errors. Any hints on where to look online?01:59

fishcookeris it normal to see this syslog verbose intensely like this... cmiiw, it seems related to the docker service http://vpaste.net/YcYc903:21
cpaelzercoreycb: FYI - I pushed the tests your zesty SRU on libvirt was blocked on, it is now good in pending-sru except waiting a few days more as usual08:17
sonu_nkhi Does the SSL include XSS protection as well?08:25
cpaelzersonu_nk: no I'd think http://www.computerweekly.com/tip/Cross-site-scripting-explained-How-to-prevent-XSS-attacks08:38
cpaelzerthere are zillions of sources, this was just the first somewhat readable that came up on a search08:38
lordievadersonu_nk: SSL does not provide any security for the contents of a page, hence XSS attacks are still possible.09:57
RoyKsonu_nk: SSL, that is, TLS, is just transport safety, it doesn't do anything about bad code on the page, as lordievader says10:49

Masterphican someone confirm this is the right way of configuring automatic updates using automatic-updates? https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/automatic-updates.html16:10
Masterphi(I'm using an ec2 instance)16:12
Epx998maas has its own channel probably?16:38
thebwtMasterphi: Correct, unattended upgrades probably the most common way of doing automatic updates with apt.17:17
Masterphi:+1: thx17:18

supercoolHi18:45
supercoolHow do I untar a folder/file ?18:45
sarnoldtar tf filename.tar | less   -- make sure it will untar what you expect; then tar xf filename.tar18:46
supercoolsarnold: the compressed file uses .tar.gz extension18:48
supercoolIt means the file is zipped then tarred?18:49
sarnoldsupercool: these days tar recognizes several different compression formats, including gz, and 'x' works on the ones it knows18:49
sarnoldsupercool: the other way around -- tarred, then gzipped18:49
supercoolSo I keed tar tf filename.tar | less18:50
supercoolkeep*18:50
sarnoldyeah; you don't want to be surprised if it has ../../etc/passwd in the tarball or something similar :)18:50
supercool:D18:51
supercoolAlright, let me test it.18:51
drabhi, I'm trying to do transparent proxying and also do transparent dns redirection using a box that's not the gw20:56
drabany thoughts on the best approach?20:56
drabright now the content filtering it's happening on the gw, a simple iptables REDIRECT from port 80 to 808020:57
drabbut if I move the cf to another box that won't work since REDIRECT is local only20:57
drabI could NAT, but that seems nasty to do on LAN, and I20:57
drab'd end up with double NAT (that + nat'ing again on the GW)20:57
drabfor dns, there's people with hardcoded dns's which I'd like to redirect to our internal one20:58
drabso again outgoing requests to port 53 should be redirected to an internal server20:58
drabis [D/S]NAT with iptables the best solution to this kind of thing?20:59
phibsso i'm following https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/ch08s07.html and setting the boot parameter rescue/enable=true via PXE, but the installer keeps trying to preseed/install, any help appreciated.21:12
drabphibs: just to be sure, hwo do you determine that the installer keeps trying to preseed/install? because that page you linked does say that a few screens of the installer will be shown21:15
drabno note in the corner of the display?21:15
phibsif I remove the earlycmd exit from my preseed, it asks partitioning questions etc21:16
drabmmmhk, lemme try just out of curiosity, I have pxe here for installs, but never use it for recovery, for that I just boot a liveCD over pxe21:17
phibsnod I hear ya21:17
phibsalso working on just building my own images with debirf as an alternative21:18
phibsand thanks!21:18
drabnope, that didn't work for me either... no clue why. not very helpful I know21:22
phibswell, I feel better now at least.21:22
drabwhat if you just use the shell during the installer? would that help?21:23
drabit's just busybox, but maybe it's enough?21:23
phibsYeah i'm trying to present a nice environment for my techs to debug stuff21:23
phibsso more control would be better21:23
draboh, I see21:23
phibs(and them not having to do extra stuff)21:23
phibsdebirf built me a kernel/initrd, so it's possible that route will work nicely21:24
drabliveCD is not an option? too much stuff to load? that would even give you a GUI if that's the kind of tech you deal with21:24
draboh, ok, had never heard about debirf, looks nice21:24
phibsdon't need/want a gui, a lot of times we're debugging with SOL (IPMI)21:25
drabfair enough21:30
phibs(otherwise yeah, good suggestion)21:30
drabphibs: ah, I got it21:37
phibswhat you gotg!21:37
drabphibs: I have a bunch of diff isos, server, mini, desktop and alternate21:37
drabI had a hunch and tried alternate and the pxe param worked21:37
phibsoh...21:38
phibsyeah this is just using http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/$DISTRO-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/initrd.gz21:38
drablubuntu alternate install to be precise, "Rescue mode" popped up in the corner and it dropped me to the prompt to enter rescue mdoe as expected21:38
drabyeah, that's what I tried too initially21:38
draband indeed it did not work21:38
drabI also tried with server, same problem21:39
phibsgrr21:39
drabactually lemme test once more just to be sure, but mini/netboot did not work for sure21:39
phibsthis is why we can't have nice things21:39
drabok, I was wrong, I guess I tried diff minis... server works too21:41
drabso it's just the mini/netboot that does not work with rescue/enable=true21:41
drabthe others do21:41
phibshmm21:43
phibswhich exact one did you use, the installer initrd/kernel?21:43
phibs(and did you specify a preseed url)21:44
drabthe way I set up pxe is: download iso, unpack, copy files to srv/nfsroot and then copy stuff from install/ to tftp etc21:45
drabubuntu-16.04.2-server-amd64.iso21:45
drabusing that iso21:45
drabyes I used preseed to specify my internal mirror, language, etc21:45
phibsah ok, thanks21:46
phibswe use pure initrd, no nfs21:46
drabyeah that's what I do for mini/netinstall, but not for server/dekstop installs21:49
draband it seems you can't do rescue with mini/netinstall21:49
phibs;021:50
drabeven tho since June I'm just using mini + ansible and haven't touched server/desktop isos once21:51
phibsnice.21:52
phibswe take the server ones and customize a bit adding other debs and tools21:52
phibsthanks for your help btw21:54
sarnoldhey phibs :)21:54
phibssarnold: yo ;021:54
drabphibs: my pleasure, it was good to know21:56
drab.o/ sarnold21:57
sarnoldhey drab :)21:57
drabany thoughts about the transparent content filter question? :)22:02
drabbbl22:07
sarnoldman I can't find the blog post from a pal that I thought would help. I've asked, but he might have gone to bed already.22:07
gheorghe_guyssssss please add openstack-dashboard version 11.0.3 to the repos ... we just have 11.0.2 and this version has some major interface bug and you can't deploy istances with volumes... 11.0.3 was already published by openstack devs.22:10
gheorghe_anybody know whom i can span with this request? are the guys who manage ubuntu packages here on irc? can we make their day bad so they push the packages faster? :))22:11
sarnoldgheorghe_: what bug number?22:11
gheorghe_sarnold i can search if you want. should i? does this info help?22:20
sarnoldgheorghe_: issues with bug reports tend to get fixed faster than issues witohut bug reports; I was just going to see if the bug report looked at all useful, filed in the right place, etc22:22
gheorghe_sarnold the bug got already fixed. the package is just not available within the ubuntu repo22:23
sarnoldgheorghe_: if there's no bug filed against an ubuntu package then no one will ever find out about it :)22:24
