vachowould be great if someone could walk me through on how to install php 7.1 or 7.2 on Ubuntu 16.0400:12
tgm4883vacho: the official answer is to use 7.0, as it's the supported version for 16.04. Otherwise you'd either need to compile or use a PPA00:15
vachotgm4883: im ok with using PPA00:15
tgm4883vacho: I'm not going to endorse any PPA since I haven't used it, but a quick search points to https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php00:16
vachotgm4883: just installed that00:17
tgm4883vacho: then what's the question?00:17

logan0405Hi, how can I remove gnome 3 desktop and all applications depending on it? I removed gnome-shell-common but have duplicate applications now in cinnamon leftover from gnome. "Startup Applications" etc00:49
logan0405ubuntu 171000:49
logan0405i just removed software-properties-common, gnome-session-common, gnome-software-common & gnome-games-common after some searching. not a clean way to do it and definitely some leftover applications00:59

wedgiedisconnect what? Maybe you should start at the beginning. How are you copying the file and what are you copying it to?05:56
abdullcopy from linux mint 18.3 to pen drive USB 2.0 16gb file size is 5gb its NTFS but after disconnect and then connect it top wndows laptop MD5sum change05:57
wedgie"16gb file size is 5gb"   What does that mean?05:58
abdull1 iso file 5gb size05:58
abdullpen 16gb05:58
rud0lfUSB 2.0 16 GB i think05:58
wedgieah. So you md5sum the source file, copy it to the usbdrive, then md5sum the file on the usb drive and they don't match?05:58
abdullyes05:58
abdullonly when connect to windows laptop its not match05:59
wedgiebad usb drive maybe?05:59
wedgieoh. So the md5sum is correct on the usb drive when checked from linux?05:59
abdullwhen i type 'cd /media/abdull/SD' then 'MD5sum file' same MD5sum for source05:59
abdullwedgie: yes06:00
guivercwedgie, your gnu/linux may have some of it still in buffers (cached) and thus is not reading the full file as written to usb-thumb-drive..06:00
rud0lfdid you compare the file size?06:00

abdullwedgie: i use save remove06:04
abdullright now i have the file in pen same MD5sum in source HDD06:04
abdullis there i commend line for save disconnect? for pen drive06:05
abdulli will use Eject from gui06:06
guivercabdull, i agree with wedgie (likely bad/faulty usb thumb-drive) - the other possible is malware/virus on windoze; but mint & windows are not Ubuntu and off-topic here06:09

mooncakehexchatcopy and past seemed to take for ever in past and am dealing with about 500GB spinning discs 7200 i think07:09
mooncakehexchat?07:14
hateballmooncakehexchat: rsync is probably your best bet07:16

mooncakehexchatfrom what i remember it is chmod but the digits i am unsure of07:22
mooncakehexchat777 or 755 comes to mind ?07:22

ShriHariok Zamba : I got the sequence wrong.09:10
TJ-zamba: at boot-time the installer provides the option to load drivers (kernel .ko modules) from separate media, but it sounds as if you're indicating that 4.13 has the module but 4.4 does not09:10
zambaTJ-: yes09:11
zambaubuntu 17 has the correct driver09:11
TJ-zamba: what's the module, do you know?09:11
TJ-zamba: we can check if there's a possibility to build for the ISO's 4.4 GA kernel so you could slip it in as the installer boots09:12
zambaTJ-: one sec09:12
allinehey09:12
TJ-zamba: aloternatively you could just create another ISO by cloning the current one and dropping in the vmlinuz from 4.13 plus it's modules (/lib/modules/4.13...09:12

zambaTJ-: you don't think it'll work backporting it?09:26

zambaTJ-: can you provide me with the iso? :)09:37
TJ-zamba: it's in the link I gave you earlier to hwe-netboot > amd64 > mini.iso09:37
cart_manEriC^^ Ok so I followed the one rule... noe the UI looks Horrible and the ETH0 still has that shitty name >.<09:38
TJ-cart_man: the hex numbers after the interface prefix enx is the MAC address of the interface09:38
cart_manI used this -> ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link09:39
zambaTJ-: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hwe-netboot/mini.iso ?09:40
zambaTJ-: do i need to do something with this?09:40
TJ-cart_man: the interface prefix is <type><location> "en" means EtherNet, usually that is followed by Port.Slot (e.g. enp1s0) but it seems like the device you have isn't on PCI - is it on SDIO or USB09:40
zambaTJ-: or just burn and boot?09:40
TJ-zamba: that's the one :) burn and boot... it'll need Internet access because it has to fetch all the packages from the Ubuntu archive servers09:40
cart_manis there some sort of rollback I can do ?09:41
TJ-cart_man: it can be disabled by a kernel command-line option that systemd/udevd look for09:42
zambaTJ-: yup.. or just access to a local proxy09:43
TJ-zamba: yes, same thing :)09:44
zambaTJ-: thank you for your help :)09:44
TJ-cart_man: you can pass "net.ifnames=0" -- see https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/09:45
cart_manTJ- Where is this Kernel command line ?09:48
cart_manANd do I do it once only?09:48
EriC^^cart_man: it's in /etc/default/grub next to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT09:49
EriC^^cart_man: after adding it you need to run sudo update-grub to save the changes09:49
codebot_i cant find #adobe in gnome-xchat.09:49
TJ-cart_man: edit /etc/default/grub, the variable GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" should have 'net.ifnames-0' inside the double-quotes. Then "sudo update-grub" and that'll work for all subsequent boots09:49
TJ-cart_man: typo! ... should have 'net.ifnames=0' insude ...09:50
cart_manGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="'net.ifname=0'"  ?09:53
akikusb ethernet adapters show up like that09:53
TJ-cart_man: remove the single-quote marks - I type them to surround what you enter from my instructions09:54
cart_manEriC^^ Btw the /etc/default/grub does not exist ? Do I create it ?09:54
cart_manOk cool09:54
TJ-cart_man: /etc/default/grub should *always* exist else there's a problem09:54
cart_manHmm I dont seem to have one : /09:54
TJ-cart_man: what does "cat /etc/issue" report?09:54
cart_manUbuntu 16.04.2 LTS \n \109:55
TJ-cart_man: if /etc/default/grub is missing you've got a serious issue since that controls the GRUB boot-loader configuration09:56
cart_mangrub seems to be in /boost/grub09:58
cart_mani mean /boot/grub09:58
TJ-cart_man: I suggest you do some checks since it could be signs of greater issues; I have to leave now but there are others here who know about this stuff09:59

ommarmolHi folks whats up. I'm having some issues with several 16.04 ubuntu-server machines running openvpn client.10:14
ommarmoleverything works well but when I reload or restart the server openvpn instance, the clients lose connection and never reconnect. A manual openvpn restart is required in the clients to get connected again10:15
ommarmolI was using this config several years ago with ubuntu 14.04 with no problems, but with 16.04 the behaviour differs a little10:16
JimBuntuommarmol, I believe there is a config setting (client side) to control this, I can't remember what is is but will check my configs as I think I use it10:16
ommarmolJimBuntu, thanks ;)10:18
JimBuntuommarmol, 'resolv-retry infinite' may help. I don't see anything else in my configs that stands out, however, I know they re-connect when the connection is lost10:18
JimBuntuI am also connecting to 16.04 machines via OpenVPN10:19
JimBuntuommarmol, To be clear, I start the connections manually in a shell and then leave them backgrounded, unsure if you are using something GUI to connect10:21
ommarmolin my case, if I do a reload (or restart) of the server openvpn instance, all clients get disconnected10:21
JimBuntuI'm fairly certain I have done this, and the clients regain their connection, if it's ever even lost... I'll double-check right now though10:22
pi_33210:23
pi_yiu10:24
pi_nihv \10:24
pi_hello10:25
JimBuntuommarmol, confirmed. I did lose the ability to traverse the remote network for a moment, but the client re-established a functional connection.10:25

ommarmolanybody running openvpn on 16.04 server?11:12
TJ-ommarmol: Many do11:12
ommarmolI'm having problems: when the server does 'service openvpn reload' or 'restart', the clients lose connection until manual openvpn restart on each of them. Months ago this never was an issue. Any ideas?11:13
NoCodewhich packages of MATE will I need to install just the DE and not the full desktop?11:13
ubjontucan someone tell me what chown 777 and 755 do please11:14
TJ-ommarmol: Likely something in the local config has changed; the lastest update to openvpn on 16.04 was June 201711:15
TJ-ommarmol: could it be the process/application controlling the client-side causing it, rather than the server side? Have you reviewed the openvpn logs?11:16
guivercubjontu, have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions  or owner.group.others read=4,write=2,execute=1  777=owner+group+others have all read+write+execute ...11:17
ommarmolTJ-, let me check11:17
ubjontucan i throw a "-R or -r for recursive11:19
ubjontu"chown 755 -r /location/ofhdd" ?11:20
guivercubjontu, in a chmod, -R means recursion (i refer to `man chmod` when I need to check the manual)11:20
ubjontuwould that command change everything on an entire drive?11:21
ommarmolTJ-, syslog shows nothing when restarting/reloading the server instance11:21
guivercubjontu, yes (assuming drive allows those permissions changed) - with -R11:22
ubjonturead the man often confuses me nt having examples11:22
ubjontuif it didnt,'allow permisions changed" and i wanted to change them-how would i ?11:23
tumblergoodbye folks, i go to have lunch ... see you11:24
ubjontuits late here11:24
ubjontu<guiverc>11:25
guivercubjontu, an example of a 'would-fail' could be a mounted partition on a different computer (server isn't allowing it), to a format (ntfs/fat) that doesn't have a place to store these permissions... the fix for each is different..11:25
ubjontumine is gpt does so it would have one right but how would i change permission if i needed to11:27
ubjontucuz i do11:27
ubjontufor the whole drive11:27
guivercgpt is a partition.table type, not a filesystem (which is put on partitions themselves). so networked example (samba etc) won't apply, but if you're using a *nix format you won't have issue most-likely11:29
dragetubiquity defaults on my test-system and VM to use MBR based partition tables when creating a manual partition layout. Will it create a GPT partition table in some other case?11:36
EriC^^draget: possibly if the disk is 2tb+ as it can't create a 2tb+ partition with msdos11:38
TJ-draget: under the hood it used partman (a sub-system used extensively by debian-installer). In most cases I've seen partman creates GPT, or GPT with hybrid MBR. You're positive it's plain MBR not GPT+MBR hybrid?11:38
EriC^^not sure though11:38
TJ-I'd tend to agree with EriC^^ supposition11:39
dragetTJ-: It have to finish the installation and check… but it does not look like a protective MBR… since the manual installer dialog tells me I should choose 'Primary/Extended' and an extended partition is sda511:40
TJ-draget: yeah, sounds that way... probably makes sense in BIOS mode with a small (relatively!) device11:41
dragetSince Grub can handle GPT even on legacy system, I'd suggest defaulting to GPT in the installer. Just wanted to make sure I am not overlooking anything before adding this to a bugreport/wishlist entry. :)11:41
TJ-draget: I've got the source-code to hand (well, it's more like spaghetti!) I'll see if I can find a clue11:41
TJ-draget: aha, changelog entry: "./d-i/source/partman-auto/debian/changelog:2693:  * Use gpt instead of msdos disklabel for disks larger than 2TB."11:43
dragetI have yet to test the new console based installer. Heard good things about it. :) But I always thought it was a pity that the graphical installer was hiding out on some things. The manual partitioning dialog would also always suggest to create a seperate swap partition. Tho it is a lot more flexible to use a swap file on the disk with the same performance. :)11:43
dragetTJ-: Thanks for the clarification! :-)11:44
dragetDoes it help anyone if I tag bugs with tags like 'minor' or 'feature-wish' ?11:50
TJ-draget: there's a bug status of "wishlist'; tags are generally used by automation tools for package maintainers to keep track of what needs doing11:52

ScioMintomreyn, thanks. When I select the ISO file on Startup Disk Creator it does nothing. If I open the program in console to see errors I get: "isoinfo: Unable to find Joliet SVD"12:15

FaradayHi13:24
Faradaywe plan to implement a bonding setup with 2 10G ethernets, our current setup configured to use 802.3ad with layer3+4 hashing algorithm. It works great with fault tolerance and data transfer but we could not get 20G from a single data connection link to the server because of 802.3ad technology. We are discussing with our team if its worth to change setup to bonding mode0 which gives 20G from single link data connection.13:25

tomreynvavkamil: how did you install ubuntu?14:42
vavkamilfrom official download14:42
tomreynvavkamil: 16.04? maybe it didn't install it automatically since you did not have an internet connection available at the time.14:43
tomreyni'm just guessing there, though14:43
vavkamilyeah I was without internet during installation process14:44
vavkamilnow when I have ntp it should be fine?14:45

vavkamilthank you14:45

nukastWhy does the request not have a leading "/"?14:52
nukastwhy are they requesting a different url on my webserver?14:52
TJ-nukast: looks like someone manually entered that and typed it incorrectly14:52
TJ-nukast: or else it's a script testing if you've got an open proxy14:53
nukastTJ- I'm trying to recreate what that request would look like in curl14:53
nukastlike `curl my.domain.com/http://www.<removed>.com`14:53
jessarcadeI tried setting up a custom x session with .xinitrc, and everything is broken now14:53

jessarcadeI'm curious if there's a way to reset ubuntu but keep all my files and applications?15:00

seredoes one have to install a full server or can i install minimal and then install server packages as need16:08
pragmaticenigmasere, you can install minimal and then install the desired packages later through apt16:09
pragmaticenigmasere, if using the mini.iso disk, it will only install packages needed to get your system up and running.16:10
serepragmaticenigma: ok thanks.. thats what i thought but i read somewhere yesterday its a must to run a sshserver16:10
serepragmaticenigma: thats what i normal do but installed a full install that lasted 10min16:11
pragmaticenigmasere, I regularly use the mini.iso to install and have had to manually install openssh-server after the fact beacause it didn't do it by default.16:11
pragmaticenigmasere, though I do believe it installs openssh-client by default16:11
serepragmaticenigma: oh ok cool thanks.. on this one im on a minimal w the server packages install the other is just minimal.. what is your preferred method of vnc or shh16:13
raul782pragmaticenigma : let me try16:14
dragetWhen installing a fresh system and even after doing an 'apt update ; apt dist-upgrade' and rebooting, the system is still lacking internationalisation packages. When opening the language settings the first thing it says that there are language packages missing and it will auto-install them.16:16
dragetWhy does this not happen during the system installation? I noticed this behaviour already on 17 and 16.xx16:17
dragetAnd to what package would I file a bugreport about that?16:17
raul782thanks that worked16:17
ScioMintomreyn, it worked! mkusb worked like a charm. thank you!16:19
tomreynwelcome ;-)16:24
pragmaticenigmasere, I prefer openssh-server for remote management of my systems as it can be hardend against many attacks using fail2ban, port obfuscuation, etc. If I need VNC for remote GUI, I run x11vnc as a server, and SSH first to the remote machine with the -L option to tunnel ports from the remote machine to the local one16:25

darmehi. if ill install ubuntu 17.10 now, will it be easy to move to ubuntu 18.0416:29
darme?16:29
pragmaticenigmadarme, yes, there will be an upgrade path that will allow you to upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04. Though that won't be available at the same time as 18.04 is released.16:30
serepragmaticenigma: awesome ok thanks so much.. thats exactly what i want to do :)16:31
pragmaticenigmasere, something to note, Ubuntu-desktop includes VINO (a different vnc server) by default, you may need to uninstall that to avoid conflicts with x11vnc16:33
pragmaticenigmaI found VINO to be slow and buggy on my system. It also has some issues with the nvidia driver.16:33
serepragmaticenigma: i installed that last night but didnt get to messing with it.. im uninstalling it now lol16:34
serepragmaticenigma: my goal is to have this acer mini do everything from vnc,shh,cloud server, file / media server.. it well probably over heat and die in a flamming fire though16:36
pragmaticenigmasere, i'll take a look at my configuration and see if I can find my initialize script for it. I have some customizations you may find helpful16:36
pragmaticenigmasere, are you setting this up to run something like owncloud?16:36
serepragmaticenigma: i would very much appreciate that.. its been a few years since ive done this so im alittle rusty16:37
serepragmaticenigma: that was the plan.. although never have done it :)16:37
serepragmaticenigma: i was supprised when i had 2T of personal movies and music and it streamed it flawlessly16:39

ChaosDHello, i've a problem with my system. i have a mounted sd card in my internal card reader and after a while it makes the mounted partition ro and the /dev/sdx disapears but a new /dev/sdy appears. in this case i have to to mount -a to get it running. but this is currupting my data. any ideas how to fix this?16:52
serepragmaticenigma: i would really only need it until i got it up and running.. ok awesome i would check it out thank you :)16:52
pragmaticenigmasere, the arguments I pass to x11vnc are "-auth guess -forever -loop -noxdamage -repeat -skip_lockkeys -rfbauth /etc/x11vnc.pass -rfbport 5900 -shared"16:53
pragmaticenigmasere, I think the skip_lockkeys is the important one, it prevents the numlock and capslock from getting stuck.16:54
pragmaticenigmaChaosD, is the SD card from a raspberry pi like device?16:55
ChaosDnope, it is bought as a extension to my internal very small ssd in my chromebook :D16:55

pragmaticenigmaChaosD, the configuration of the SD card isn't supported by many devices. Android and Raspberry Pi place partitions on the SD card which isn't part of the standard for SD card file systems.16:56
pragmaticenigmaChaosD, I believe I remember seeing something with chromebook/android where when you use SDcards to extend the space available to the device, the card cannot be used with any other device until it is formatted16:57

ChaosDpragmaticenigma, i do not run chrome os, its galliumOS, some ubuntu version, but i think the problem is a little bit deeper. the problem is, my dmesg says something like this: https://pastebin.com/gg1TCLiX | i separated the log somehow useful, u can see, my card reader disconnects an connects after wakeup which leads to a 'new' partition17:08
=== marve is now known as Guest89810
pragmaticenigmathat's a bit outside my knowledge base ChaosD ... on the surface it appears that something is preventing the system from "waking" after a power state. it might be ignoring the old mount and just remounting the same disk as a new partition17:12
pragmaticenigmaChaosD, is this from the Chromebook instance?17:13

ca_cabohey all, trying to use "dd if=x of=y && rm -f y" to overwrite the freespace on a drive, but it's under dev/mapper and i keep getting an error saying "failed to open... not a directory" how can i accomplish this - here is the command "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/subuntu--vg-root/zeroes && rm -f /dev/mapper/subuntu--vg-root/zeroes17:51
TJ-ca_cabo: what on earth? That makes no sense!17:52

ca_caboyeah that is the goal.17:54
TJ-pragmaticenigma: I realise that, but it makes no sense... ca_cabo where did you get the idea for that command?17:55
TJ-ca_cabo: there is no node /dev/mapper/subuntu--vg-root/zeroes  and never will be. nodes in /dev/mapper are links to device-mapper block devices17:56

ukinethat might work.18:02

sjohnson...page07.html18:25
sjohnson:(18:25
ukineTY TJ-18:27
naccsjohnson: works fine here18:28
sjohnson... cry18:29
sjohnsonit says, "This page does not exist yet. You can create a new empty page, or use one of the page templates."18:29
TJ-sjohnson: or you can just do, in a terminal, "man fstab"18:29
sjohnsonthat's the document i read last time, and i broke the internet upon reboot.18:30
sjohnsoncouldn't even log in to Raspbian, i was done.18:30
sjohnsonsurprised i didn't get fired.18:30
TJ-sjohnson: what are you trying to do ?18:30
sjohnsonTJ-: mount a USB harddrive (3 TB) upon bootup.  it uses vfat.18:31
sjohnsonmount /dev/sda1 /blah # works just fine, even autodetects that it's exFAT18:32
sjohnsonand mount shows it uses "fuseblk"18:32
sjohnsonso i added that to the fstab and when the computer rebooted i got a phone call saying the network broke.18:32
TJ-exfat isn't vfat, they're 2 different file-systems (and drivers)18:32
sjohnsonit was awful.  couldn't even get a login prompt to comment out the line.18:32
TJ-sjohnson: also, using a device node isn't a great idea because devices can get different names on subsequent boots due to the order in which the devices are discovered... you're better off using UUID= or LABEL= or /dev/disk/by-id/....18:33
TJ-sjohnson: so what is /dev/sda now could be /dev/sdb next boot if there are other drives attached too18:34
sjohnsonah, good point.18:34
sjohnsoni added the mount command in rc.local (which is probably not the cleanest way)18:34
sjohnsonbut a colleague said "just do it" so i obliged.18:34
TJ-'blkid' can tell you the UUID and LABEL's for each file system for use in fstab18:34
sjohnsonthanks, i'll give this a stry.18:35
sjohnson-s18:36
TJ-sjohnson: I'd recommend you use the manual 'sudo mount /dev/xxx /blah' comand to let the details be figured out automatically, then do "grep /dev/xxx /proc/mounts" to find out the flags used, file-system type, etc., then use those to create your /etc/fstab entry but in there replace /dev/xxx with the UUID by running 'blkid /dev/xxx' and then creating an  entry with something like "UUID=... /blah exfat18:38
TJ-defaults 0 2"18:38
sjohnsonTJ-: you are a genius.18:38
sjohnsoni asked about this the other day but didn't get a reply.18:38
sjohnsonso much appreciated.18:38
lotuspsychje!cookie | TJ-18:38
ubottuTJ-: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!18:38
sjohnsonTJ-++18:38
TJ-sjohnson: you can test that line works manually by 'sudo umount /dev/xxx' then doing "sudo mount -a" (-a means automount and is the command run at boot-time) - if that mounts your /dev/xxx you know it works18:39
TJ-sjohnson: and therefore it won't break at boot-time18:39
TJ-sjohnson: HOWEVER!!! if that device isn't connected at boot-time it could stall the boot, so beware...18:40
=== csbadhe1 is now known as csbadhe
TJ-sjohnson: ... if that is a possibility, make the fstab options 'default,noauto' and then add a udev rule so that when the /dev/xxx appears it executes "mount /dev/xxx"18:41

isaiahnixonHow do I start my ssh client on 16.04 desktop?21:32
hggdhisaiahnixon: if I understand correctly, open a terminal, and type in ssh <remote host>21:33
isaiahnixonhggdh, I try that and I am getting permission denied every time. I know my key works because I have used the exact one before from a different VM.21:34
isaiahnixonhggdh, So I started on the rabbit hole of trying to kind out how to confirm where my client was pulling the key from.21:35
tgm4883isaiahnixon: permission denied sounds like it's coming from the server, not the client21:41
tgm4883isaiahnixon: in any case, ssh has a verbose flag (-v probably) or you can use -i to specify what key you want to use21:41
isaiahnixontgm4883, the -i option worked.21:42
isaiahnixonWhich means when I just use the ssh command, where is it pulling the key from?21:43
tgm4883isaiahnixon: generally, ~/.ssh21:43
isaiahnixontgm4883, my key is in the authorized_keys subdirectory21:44
=== marve is now known as Guest92344
tgm4883isaiahnixon: that's the wrong spot for it21:44
isaiahnixontgm4883, Oof well that explains it.21:45
isaiahnixontgm4883, Thanks a bunch.21:45
tgm4883isaiahnixon: IIRC, it checks a few named keys in a specific order. ~/.ssh/id_rsa should be where your private key resides21:45
=== akik_ is now known as akik
isaiahnixontgm4883, So this is really odd. But, I moved my key. And I am still getting a permission denied error when I run: ssh <remote host>. However, if I run: ssh <remote host> -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa. It works perfectly.21:54
=== vemacs|ded is now known as vemacs
isaiahnixonWhich pretty much proves that it is pulling the key from somewhere else by default right?21:54
=== vemacs is now known as Guest36020
tgm4883isaiahnixon: use -v, it will show you what it's doing21:54
isaiahnixontgm4883, It is pulling keys from /root/.ssh. Why would it be doing that and where did those come from?21:56
tgm4883isaiahnixon: how are you running it?21:56
pragmaticenigmaisaiahnixon, did you copy your private key or the public key to the remote machine. the public key should be copied to the remote host which is the one ending in .pub21:56
tgm4883pragmaticenigma: that's not necessary here21:57
pragmaticenigmait isn't?21:57
isaiahnixontgm4883, I was running it as sudo21:57
isaiahnixon*facepalm*21:57
tgm4883isaiahnixon: well there's your problem21:57
pragmaticenigmatgm4883, I thought you needed to send the .pub key21:59
tgm4883pragmaticenigma: no. For starters, you don't ever copy your private key to the remote machine. That's a very bad idea. Secondly, he already stated that if he used -i that it worked which proves that he has already copied his public key to the correct locations. Thirdly, there's a utility already available for doing such a thing (ssh-copy-id)21:59
pragmaticenigmaI'm well aware you don't copy your private key... that's why I asked if they should be sending the .pub? isn't .pub the public key?22:00
tgm4883pragmaticenigma: yes it is, I misread what you had initially said. In any case, he had already done that22:01
pragmaticenigmaokay... gave me a fright there... thanks for clarifying22:01
pragmaticenigmaall good... problem solved though22:02
pragmaticenigma:-)22:02
isaiahnixonThank you both for the help. In case you couldn't tell I am kind of new to this stuff.22:02

pragmaticenigmachip_, please ask your question, in as much detail as you can, and if we don't or can't answer your question we will do our best to guide you to a better resource22:48
DiecastMessiahchip yes ok if it was a ubuntu problem but it sounds that is a hardware thing you can try #hardware22:50
pragmaticenigmaShaunR, what version of ubuntu are you running and how are you installing openssh-server?22:50
DiecastMessiahunless i misread22:51
pragmaticenigmaDiecastMessiah, I'm wondering the same thing22:52
Battleokay so ive added specific pathways to all of the commands being executed, the crontab script works fine when i manually run this in the ssh22:53
Battleand according to crontab log, it is executing the crontab file22:54
Battlehowever it is not running the code as it does in ssh22:54
Battleyet its identical to being executed in ssh22:54
ShaunRpragmaticenigma: 16.04, apt install openssh-server22:54
BattleI assume this is related to env variables but id ont know how when im specifically using absolute path....22:54

pragmaticenigmaShaunR, does the installation complete or does it back out everything22:55
ghostriderthe card itself works fine in other readers22:55
ShaunRpragmaticenigma: breaks dpkg22:56
ShaunRsshd no longer works either.22:56
pragmaticenigmaBattle, how are you adding items to Cron?22:56
ghostriderpretty sure  exited with non-zero exit status 1:   is important in the situation22:57
chip_pragmaticenigma, Thank you! :D After trying a few things, I found what appears to be a solution but I don't know what to do with it. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/hid/hid-elecom.c22:58
pragmaticenigmachip_, we need more information about the problem though, what you are seeing specifically22:58
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, when you say it works fine in other computers, are they also Linux machines or Windows machines?22:59
ghostriderwell yes, simply putting one in the usb slot it reads fine23:00
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, I don't understand what that means23:00
ghostriderlol well if you take a usb card reader and put it in the usb slot, it reads the card...23:00
pragmaticenigmaShaunR, you had ssh working before? did it fail during an update?23:01
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, so if I'm understanding correctly: If you use your computer's Memory Card reader, you see that error when mounting. When you use a USB adapter, the same computer can read the card without any issue?23:02
ghostriderEXACTLY23:02
=== newdimension_ is now known as newdimension
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, is there any other cards plugged into the internal drive when you use this specific card, and if you use a different card does the internal reader show the same error?23:03
ghostriderSometimes linux can have issues with an sd card that was removed from a windows machine before it auto ejected, but ive not been able to link non zero status 1 to that issue23:03
ghostriderno on other stuff23:04
pragmaticenigmachip_, bluetooth devices aren't something I'm very familiar with. As far as the github link, that's to be compiled into the kernel as a driver.23:04
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, programs either exit with a status of zero, meaning good, or not zero, meaning bad but it's up to the programmer that made the program to define what it means23:05
chip_pragmaticenigma, I will need to remember what I did to show you actual output (and I'll work on doing that). In the meantime, I'll share the conclusions I arrived at. (I suppose you can ignore them while I try to repeat the process.) I'm spent a few minutes trying to find the applications I used to come to these conclusions:23:05
chip_Ah, it's the EX-G Trackball (Wired and wireless) not bluetooth :D23:05
ghostriderwell yes and no..23:05
chip_just regular ole usb23:05
ghostriderAN SD CARD READER ISNT A PROGRAM ITS HARDWARE23:06
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, a program is called to mount the sd card23:06
tjghaskell23:06
pragmaticenigma"mount" is a program, that tells the operating system a device needs to be made available for use23:07
ghostriderYes, but its getting that error from the logged status of the hardware23:07
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, the key here is: Command-line `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077" "/dev/mmcblk0p1" "/media/ghostrider/D86F-0C6D"' exited with non-zero exit status 1:23:08
ghostriderIT CLEARLY STATES THAT PREVIOUSLY THE SD CARD READER EXITED LINUX WITH A NON ZERO STATUS23:08
pragmaticenigmathat was saying it used the program mount, to mount a device formatted with exfat to the directory /media/ghostridder/D86F-0C6D23:08
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, please calm down23:09
ghostriderLOL im not un calm, so your command simply produces a blinking prompt23:10

chip_pragmaticenigma,  I used (something running in a terminal) to identify 9 buttons on my trackball. The process involved clicking in another window so it could tell me which button was which. The Problem: The *one button* I most want to bind to CTRL produced no output while all 9 of the others did (left, right, forward button, back button, wheel click, wheel scrolling [both directions], and horizontal wheel clicks [both directions].23:11
ghostrideroh..I SEE you were just repeating what i pasted,   gee I think i already figured out that it was the key to problem, thats WHY I POSTED IT..23:12
camilohola23:13
chip_pragmaticenigma, part of my issue (I'm realizing now) is that I've been searching in circles. This repository https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/hid/hid-elecom.c seems to be for a driver that addresses the issue (it even names my device, huzza! :D)23:13
pragmaticenigmaghostrider, plug the card back into a windows computer, run a checkdisk, eject it properly and see if that works23:13
ghostrideri reallllllly hate to even touch windows, but if that fixes it, then i know someone removed my card, viewed it on a windows machine, and then put it back in my linux machine...argggghhhhh23:14
pragmaticenigmachip_, the file you linked to is for 8 buttons. Currently the known models for that brand must have only had 8 buttons at the time the driver was developed.23:14
serepragmaticenigma: hey thanks again for the help earler. i have it some what up and running.. its been headless all day. im working on getting a full windows X session now23:14
skinuxHey guys, I'm trying to use PHP's built-in web server, keep getting connection refused no matter what port number I use.23:15
Battlepragmaticenigma: Hello didnt see your reply, I added the crontab by using webmin23:15
skinuxPort 80 (nginx) doesn't get connection refused, but it's not working for other reasons I haven't been able to solve.23:16
pragmaticenigmaBattle, in my opinion... webmin = bad... that aside, when using webmin do you recall what file it said it was modifying for cron?23:16
Battlepragmaticenigma I did all look at crontab -e and its in the file perfectly23:17
pragmaticenigmaskinux, try a higher port number such as 8080 or 888823:17
Battlealso*23:17
pragmaticenigmaok Battle, can you post an example of one of the lines for me?23:17
skinuxThose are connection refused as well23:18
Battle* * * * * /home/Battle/eco/7.2.4_test/check.cron23:18
skinuxI do know that iptables was installed and configure by default. I don't know how to configure it, but it's never been an issue before.23:18
chip_pragmaticenigma, that's a helpful observation thank you. I very much appreciate your assistance, and I'm relieved to find a helpful community here. I shall now take my gn00b skills back to the web to learn about drivers! :D23:20
pragmaticenigmaskinux, I think you might want to focus your efforts on nginx and possibly the firewall. I think one of those two things are working against you. Have you made any modifications to iptables or UFW?23:20
skinuxNope. I don't know how to do firewall configurations.23:21
pragmaticenigmachip_, glad I could provide some assistance. sometimes the drivers take a little bit to reach the same level has their hardware. My thoughts were you had no difficulty with the 8 buttons, which tells me the driver you posted was already installed. One thing you can do to speed things along is post a bug in the bug tracker for Ubuntu. That will help it pick up traction faster23:22
pragmaticenigmaskinux, did you follow any tutorials that made modifications to your system?23:23
skinuxNo.23:23
Battlepragmaticenigma Sorry not sure if you saw it: * * * * /home/Battle/eco/7.2.4_test/check.cron23:23
pragmaticenigmaBattle, If I'm reading that correctly, It doesn't appear to have a schedule. Usually one of the astrix's are filled in with a number23:23
Battlepragmaticenigma i have other cron jobs in here which do execute perfectly and they're likethis too23:24
Battleits really weird23:25
Battlepragmaticenigma when I actually manually hit "run" on webmin for this cronjob, it returns the output of application not running as expected, so its like the code is running fine...23:25
pragmaticenigmaBattle, from what I know, that means you wanted that script to run every minute, of every hour, of every day, of every month?23:26
Battlebut it just doesnt start the application23:26
Battlethat is correct pragmaticenigma23:26
Battlethis script checks if a process is running, if not, starts it23:26
Battle(crash detector)23:26
Battleit works for other applications but for some reason, this one just wont work23:26
Battleit's a "mono" application unlike the other applications23:26
pragmaticenigmaskinux, does your nginx log have anything in it? specifically error messages?23:26
Battleso i'm not sure if perhaps this is having some impact perhaps23:27
pragmaticenigmaBattle, I assume the script has execute privalages?23:27
Battleyeah23:27
BattleI can run it in ssh term fine23:27
Battleworks perfectly23:27
pragmaticenigmaBattle, try changing the command to /home/Battle/eco/7.2.4_test/./check.cron23:27
Battleokay23:27
pragmaticenigmaBattle, in the crontab file23:28
Battleyeah23:28
Battlepragmaticenigma nope :(23:30
pragmaticenigmahow do you run the script in the command line Battle ?23:30
Battlepragmaticenigma:  Mar 23 19:28:01 kf CRON[22172]: (anderson) CMD (/home/Battle/eco/7.2.4_test/./check.cron)23:30
Battlebut yet not started23:30
pragmaticenigmaBattle, did you see the other question? How do you execute the script from the command line manually?23:31
Battleoh sorry23:31
BattleI execute it by literally typing: /home/Battle/eco/7.2.4_test/./check.cron23:31
Battleer well with out the ./23:31
pragmaticenigmaBattle, does the script have any output when you run it manually?23:32
Battleyes, the 1 line, of app not running, now starting it. (which is what is shown on webmin also) so it is executing the code at least upto that point23:32
pragmaticenigmaokay, try this23:32
skinuxTo answer the question, I was getting errors in nginx log, but that is no longer the case.23:33
pragmaticenigmaBattle, change the crontab line to end with " > /home/Battle/check.cron.txt 2>&1" without the quotes. that will send any output from the script to the file /home/Battle/check.cron.txt where we might be able to see if there is an error message23:34
skinuxThe last errors, configs, and curl output is gisted though https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/aa94232abbc98004c8f62fc1b5e51e2d23:36
=== mkv is now known as m4v
=== vemacs|ded is now known as vemacs
pragmaticenigmaskinux, it looks like nginx is working just fine, so I don't think we have a firewall issue to contend with. The only thing I'm not familiar with is running PHP's own webserver. but I'll ask some questions and lets see what we come up with.23:40
Battlepragmaticenigma no errors at all, just the one line of app not running , now trying to start :S23:40
=== vemacs is now known as Guest39496
pragmaticenigmaBattle, so crontab is working. and is executing your script. it sounds like the script is what's not working23:41
Battleso weird, it runs fine in ssh terminal =s23:41
pragmaticenigmaBattle, it appears to be running fine in cron too... you're getting the same output23:42
Battleyet it doesnt start :S23:43
Battlehmm23:43
Battleokay23:44
BattleI think ive resolved it23:44
BattleI split it up23:44
pragmaticenigmaBattle, what split?23:45
BattleI made a new file 'start.cron' containing the command that is executed to start the application23:45
Battleand in the check.cron i replaced that same line with absolute path to the /path/to/file/start.sh &23:45
Battleand that started it23:45
