docmurHey guys, I'm running Ubuntu on 16.04.1 and I have mod-security enabled.  I'm trying to send a GET / POST request without a User Agent attached, but I can't, it causes a 403, this is the security notice: [msg "Request Missing a User Agent Header"] [severity "NOTICE"], is it possible to turn User Agent filtering off but leave the rest intact?01:55
sarnoldif this is documenting the same mod_security, there's a dozen instances of User-Agent on this page https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual#REQUEST_HEADERS01:59

OpenTokixHello all, I am doing a preseeded installation of ubuntu 16.04.3 from a custom iso. - But the installer is failing on "apt-install or in-target is already running..." messages appear in syslog. - I have found a bug on lunchpad (1450597) however it seems to reference booting from usb stick. Bug is from 2013. The installation is made on a virtualization platform.06:32
OpenTokixThe preseed file itself works pxe-booted.06:32

OpenTokixhttps://pastebin.com/7sJL846u <-- this is the append to kernel boot I am using.  - That paste is from another isolinux.cfg I am working on parallell I am aware it is desktop when its casper.06:34

jamespagecoreycb: I've been pushing everything through to updates :-)13:59
jamespagecinder just went14:00
coreycbjamespage: they are mostly no-ops at this point so i think that's fine14:00
jamespagelast bit I think14:00
jamespageyeah that was my take14:00
coreycbjamespage: i'll start a doc14:00
coreycbjamespage: oh nova-lxd is still at rc114:02
jamespagecoreycb: hmmm14:06
jamespagetinwood: do we have a release for nova-lxd yet?14:06
coreycbjamespage: just giving a final look at horizon14:11
jamespagecoreycb: always a good idea14:11
coreycbjamespage: seeing 2 issues with launching an instance. network doesn't show up as a selection and admin doesn't have a Launch Instance button.15:04
coreycbjamespage: on horizon, cli is fine15:04
fricklercoreycb: jamespage: do you happen to have a sample for a git-build-recipe that builds for xenial based on UCA? would be great to have launchpad take over my builds ;)16:02
jamespagefrickler: hmm16:14
jamespagefrickler: not per say16:14

mordofwhen a process uses too much RAM, and the os/kernel/whatever kills it - does anyone know what signal it uses to kill that process? (is it something i could catch)?17:18
jdroom killer?17:20
jdri am sure its SIGKILL.17:20
sdezielyeah, it's SIGKILL17:26
mordof:/  of course it is, heh17:27
mordoftrying to write a script to handle some rather cpu/memory intensive stuff and distribute it across a bunch of machines, but i'm worried the memory use will mark it for death from the oom killer17:28
mordofand not sure how to handle that situation17:28
mordofi don't want the handler at the end which brings all the results together to wait forever17:28
sdezielyou can tune the oom_score for a given process17:30
mordofsdeziel: it's a type of process where - if left alone without a time limit - *will* run out of memory17:30
sdezielmordof: I'm not sure about the "wait forever" part? Are you saying the handler would wait for a dead process?17:31
mordofso changing score will just change the time frame it'll take before it dies17:31
mordofi've got a central process which dispatches each of the tasks - and then waits for the results through redis or some other medium17:31
mordofi could kill it after several hours if nothing came through.. but.. that's not very nice17:31
sdezielcould the workers send a heart beat every so often?17:32
sdezielif a worker doesn't report inside 3 heart beat time, you conclude it's dead17:32
mordofsdeziel: sometimes i wonder why my brain just doesn't come up with these things... i've done that in the past, why that didn't occur to me... lol17:33
sdezielor even something simpler: just note the PID of the worker and when that PID is gone, conclude the process was reaped by OOM17:33
mordoftrue17:33
mordofsdeziel: heartbeat will be a bit easier to implement here i think - gonna go that route, and then tune parameters for performance as needed. thanks17:36
sdezielmordof: glad I could help17:36
naccdpb1: powersj: rbasak: fyi, it looks like there might be some significant chnages in snapcraft that will let us trim our snap back down18:07
naccnot an immediate priority, but eventually18:07
powersjsweet18:07
dpb1can also bundle the .pyc files18:07
naccdpb1: yeah, i think we can actually trim a lot out, but i haven't had the cycles to figure out what yet18:12
dpb1backlog18:12
dpb1ya18:12
naccour CI will help us make sure we don't break things in general, i hope18:13
