=== patr0clus is now known as s3nd1v0g1us [01:59] a1Cypher: Please describe what is the error you are getting. === patr0clus is now known as s3nd1v0g1us [02:13] Hey everyone, I have added freecad-maintainers/freecad-stable ppa to my ubuntu 18.10 and it is still showing me version 0.16 any suggestions? [02:16] Dave_Elec: I do not know what you expected in terms of versions, but the best you can do is contact the PPA's maintainers [02:18] hggdh: the default ubuntu ppa has 0.16 but the frecad-maintainers ppa has 0.17 and apt only shows me 0.16 [02:19] Dave_Elec: the PPA you pointed out above says "freecad-stable". Perhaps there is another PPA that has 0.17? [02:21] hggdh: yeah the freecad-stable from freecad-maintainers [02:24] can I SSH into a live booted thumb drive? [02:26] kinghat: if it has openssh-server running, yes. But openssh-server is not installed by default on Ubuntu [02:31] hggdh, I want to run df -h and get a different partition than the original /dev/sda1 [02:32] texla: what do you mean? [02:33] hggdh, when i run df -h i get the results from /dev/sda1 I want the results to show /dev/sda2 or 3 or4 [02:35] texla: if you run "df -h" without any other options, it will show you all mounted filesystems (and space used/available). If you only see /dev/sda1, then there is only /dev/sda1 mounted [02:37] hggdh, https://pastebin.com/d57mZAmn..this is what i get [02:40] hggdh: i can connect to it and accept the keys but when it asks me for a password and i leave it blank it says permission denied. [02:40] hggdh, You saying I have to mount each partition before running df -h then do I add /dev/sda2 etc [02:41] texla: if there are other filesystems, yes, they have to be mounted [02:41] if I installed an application - what is the command to find everything installed about that application ? I want to know version, location of application folder. location of configuration files, and prerequisites - dependencies that installed along ? [02:41] kinghat: how about giving it a password? [02:42] `passwd ubuntu`? [02:42] kinghat: whatever is the password for the account [02:44] acu: dpkg -l will give you all files for ; for dependencies, apt-cache depends [02:44] acu: replace by the name of the package [02:44] acu: for all else, consult the package's documentation and/or man pages [02:49] hggdh, thanks, I forgot to ask, what is the command if application is install with snap ? [02:50] I want to know: 1) what is the version 2) where is the application installed 3) where are the configuration files ? 4) what applications where installed along [02:51] snap list , this info is easy to find, if the snap gives configuration files, it is stored in your home folder. ~/snap [02:55] OerHeks, thank you... is there a way to know what else that snap brought in for install ? It was a lot of dependencies, mariadb etc [02:56] I want to know them [02:56] no, they are all confined in that snap, afaik [02:56] OerHeks, it is interesting - so database install, configurations, php etc all is in snap ? nothing in the host OS ? [02:57] not sure there is a snap that provides that,.. [02:58] acu: snaps are, pretty much, self-contained [02:58] well, that is what I want to know - for example, I installed nextcloud - OK, nice, but I need to know what was installed, where are the files,? [02:58] for example nextcloud [02:59] snap install --channel=14/candidate nextcloud === capella|away is now known as capella [03:00] that populair snap gives many version indeed https://snapcraft.io/nextcloud [03:00] did wonders, but I have 0 ideea what is in the host (if anything at all) , and what exactly is installed allong (of course I can browse through files /var/snap, but certainly there is a way to find - I know there are are lot of things pulled along [03:00] and snap keeps 3 versions on disk, too [03:01] https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/12/Nextcloud_Server_Administration_Manual.pdf [03:01] version 3 dec 2018 [03:03] oh nice, here it is described, Nextcloud 13.0.7 Apache 2.4 PHP 7.1 MySQL 5.7 Redis 4.0 mDNS https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-snap [03:08] hggdh: im trying to set my account on ubuntu server back to sudoers or in the group sudo via ssh into a live booted usb on the machine. if i do `visudo` that is only giving me the live usb users and not the users on the ubuntu server im trying to edit. [03:08] OerHeks, is there a command to know what exactly is installed along - actually if you see aboe I am interested in 14.04 (is light years ahead of version 13) - but I want to know all the applications - and modules (php mariadb etc - in other words, I am interested in the list of application install - not generic ) [03:08] can i edit the ubuntu server users somehow from the live usb? [03:11] cna i just go to `/etc/sudoers` and add 'user ALL=(ALL) ALL' [03:11] can* [03:12] acu, sure, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Search_commands [03:12] kinghat: yes, you can. But the best would be to use visudo with the -f parameter [03:13] what is the -f parameter? [03:13] kinghat: then you can give the actual file you want to edit. see 'man visudo' for details [03:18] hggdh: so i did: visudo -f /media/neon/2d78a139-a582-11e8-8256-7446a0af81e0/etc/sudoers [03:18] and it brought it up like i previously had it brought it up using nano [03:19] hopefully it takes [03:20] kinghat, if you did not chroot, it would not work, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery#Add_User_to_a_Group [03:21] i cant use recovery because the grub menu is jacked on my screen. its hardly visible. https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/cGioOJe6/irccloudcapture2268390190753378140.jpg [03:22] so i had to use a live boot usb to be able to edit the file on the machine [03:27] looks like it worked === H1ddenDjinn is now known as HiddenDjinn [03:39] where are settings for system logs kept on ubuntu? [03:43] hggdh: so if i just added my only user back to sudoers, shouldnt it be in the group `sudo`? [03:44] hallo folks.. any of yall familiar with the ubuntu image for the odroid xu4? [04:42] perhaps some one can help.. im looking for a low requirements linux os just for transfering files, i only have x2 512gb ram, id like to use a gui [04:49] lowkeycoat1, we only support Ubuntu & official flavors, and 512mb is rather light for a gui & live-system [04:50] is it possible to put the output of 'compgen -g' into alphabetical order? [04:50] kinghat: | sort [04:51] tyvm [07:31] good morning folks, [07:32] how would you make all your traffic go through one interface? [07:32] I've read in google but does iptables must be on ?

[07:42] i just deleted apache but it still says it exists [07:42] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/1VVOISMe/ [07:42] why does it return apache2: ??? [07:43] i cant get phpmyadmin to come up no matter what i do [07:43] comet23, that's the default return. If it were installed, it would show a location after the colon [07:43] thank you! [07:45] qwebirc13522, more information would be more likely to get you some answers. How did you install it? How are you attempting to reach it? What error(s) are you getting? etc. [07:50] whats the command to see php info [07:50] or what command(s) would show helpful infp [07:52] 'php -i' and ##php [07:55] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/YRrHFY5Xcz/ [07:59] can anyone see what might be wrong here https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/YRrHFY5Xcz/ [08:02] you still haven't given us any useful information other than "I can't get phpmyadmin to come up" [08:09] php installs but when i try to pull up the phpmyadmin it says the url or page doesnt exist [08:12] how did you install it [08:14] from comand line. i can find the page i folowed [08:15] the less info you give the less people can help [08:16] well it was a friends ex that set it up and they are hot and cold and now they are on a hot phase and im left reassembling the pieces [08:17] basically I am trying to get concrete5 up and running which it seems to be now but i think i get the login information from the logs of that somewhere [08:24] ok then i got it to work from the machine on links, but it wants ,e to fix server config to indicate https properly [08:36] hi everybody!

[12:58] as in: open text editor, write stuff, close without saving, stuff is still there [12:58] Doesn't VS Code do that? [12:59] Cheez: vs as in visual studio? that's hardly free [12:59] Hi folks [12:59] visual studio code [12:59] Cheez: that's proprietary isn't it? [12:59] https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode [12:59] MIT [12:59] ah cool [13:00] BluesKaj, hey guy [13:00] i was hoping for more of a generic text editor rather than a full blown ide, but it's already something [13:00] thanks for the tip :) [13:00] i count it as a text editor tbh [13:00] hi coz_ [13:01] Cheez: i'll try it and see how it feels, i hope it has more of a sublime text feeling rather than vs :P [13:01] but yeah, i just opened it, shoved a load of text into a brand new unsaved file, closed it, re-opened it, and the unsaved file was still tehre [13:01] it's very similar [13:01] even down to the ctrl + shift + p menu [13:01] lots of extensions too [13:02] Cheez: pretty cool. i'm cloning the repo right now. [13:04] one word of warning, it is electron based, but it's also the best performing electron app i've used. [13:08] Cheez: it also seems to require a good deal of nodejs stuff, which doesn't exactly have a very good track record for stability and security.. :/ [13:09] no worse than java [13:10] geirha: well i don't recall popular java modules to have shipped with miners tbf :P [13:10] sonne: there's a snap of it [13:12] ducasse: snaps are not much better for security imho.. it's basically running binaries shipped by third parties, only instead of just the binary you also take the dependencies from them - but i'm sidetracking [13:13] sonne: i just meant as an alternative to cloning repos if you just want to test it out [13:14] ducasse: i'm trying my best not to run binaries that don't come from my distribution, not even once - but thanks :) [13:14] can anyone PM to help with a drive mount issue im having [13:15] earl_: any particular reason why we can't help you in public? [13:15] !pm | earl_ [13:15] earl_: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. [13:15] not at all, sorry just new to the chat didnt know how to ask specifically [13:15] no worries, what's your problem? [13:16] sonne, something like xournal ? [13:16] i mounted a drive to my system and I can see it and use it, but while trying to find the drive using filezilla it is not showing up anywhere [13:16] earl_: odd. is it a local filesystem? [13:17] it says that it is mounted to /media , althought in filezilla i do not see that folder anywhere [13:17] ioria: installing [13:17] sonne, it was a Q. :] [13:17] ioria: installing to let you know if it's something like that :P [13:17] ok [13:18] ioria: no, not really.. xournal seems to be taking "taking notes" a tad too literally [13:19] ah [13:19] a text editor that saves unnamed buffers when i close it is really enough :) [13:19] sonne: yes it is local [13:20] earl_: can you see it otherwise? e.g. from the file manager [13:21] i'm not talking about any side menus or things like that just to be clear, can you see it by walking through the path you're expecting? e.g. / -> /media -> /media/something [13:21] if i open up file manager it shows under "other locations" along with my main boot drive [13:21] that's what i was wondering - can you access it without using the "other locations", but just by walking through the mount point? [13:22] I dont believe so, if i open file manager I dont even see /media [13:22] interesting. but if you click it in 'other locations' you see the contents. [13:23] correct [13:23] does it have a unique name in the file manager? [13:24] as in, you know, "earl's pen drive" or something like that [13:24] when I am in disk, it says it is mounted at /media/user/drivename [13:24] ok [13:24] yea I named the drive [13:24] perfect [13:24] let's try something: [13:24] spawn a terminal, write 'mount' in it, and read the output. can you see a line that mentions your drive name? [13:25] yes [13:26] if you type "ls /media/youruser/yourdrivename", no quotes, do you see the contents? [13:26] (i'm hoping the drive name doesn't contain spaces or weird characters) [13:27] when i do that command it says no such file or directory [13:27] no weird characters [13:27] odd. did you write the name correctly? correct case? are there spaces involved? what if you just type "ls /media/youruser"? [13:29] oh sorry, yes if i do the original command it shows the folder that is in there [13:29] ok, great [13:30] so it is mounted correctly and it seems there's no weirdness involved, so filezilla shold see it. [13:30] in files, how would i even go back far enough to see /media [13:30] if that question makes sense [13:31] depends in the file manager you're using, i'm not very knowledgeable on those though [13:31] earl_: is it the only drive you have in /media/youruser? [13:31] yea only drive [13:32] cool, try this: spawn a terminal, type "ln -s /media/youruser/* xxx" no quotes [13:32] then try on filezilla, see if you have a 'xxx' folder in your home directory, and see if it can enter it [13:34] filezilla does not see it, but i can see it in my home folder on file browser [13:36] <_13LACK_> earl_: in filezilla, what shows inside /media directory? [13:36] earl_: i'm puzzled really. i tried running filezilla on my machine, it has no problems accessing external fileystems. [13:37] I dont see any /media directory in filezilla [13:38] earl_: what if you just type "/media" in the "Local site:" box? [13:38] <_13LACK_> tell us.. what is appears in filezilla? [13:39] says /media/ does not exist or can not be accessed [13:40] if i go to the top of directory in filezilla / i have app, bin, dev, etc, home, lib, lib64, proc, run, sbin, sys, tmp, usr [13:40] <_13LACK_> aww [13:41] <_13LACK_> maybe is a permission problem [13:41] <_13LACK_> whats is the permission of /media directory? [13:41] honestly i have no clue because I cant get to it anywhere [13:42] earl_, Can you open a terminal and type `ls -la /media/your-username` [13:43] <_13LACK_> type ls -lh / [13:43] _13LACK_: he can see it on the terminal, so at the very least it has u+x. [13:43] earl_, that should print that information [13:43] and it shouldn't matter with the symlink [13:44] <_13LACK_> and see the first co/lum of /media line [13:44] <_13LACK_> column* [13:45] _13LACK_ when i type that [13:45] it brings up all the folders, but media is the only one in green [13:46] b-m-f did that command as well, not sure what im supposed to be looking for [13:47] earl_: what does the first column say? shold be something like: drwxr-xr-x [13:47] earl_, do this instead and give the url it says > ls -la /media/your-username | curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw/ [13:47] for which command ? [13:47] ls -l / [13:47] sonne: the first column are the rights on the file/directory [13:48] hello [13:48] tchakatak: i know, i belive it's what _13LACK_ was asking him [13:48] Directory ReadWriteeXecute (for the owner) Read-Execute (for the group) and Read-Execute(For everyone) [13:48] look online at posix rights [13:49] tchakatak: not sure why you're telling me this, have you read the rest of the backlog? [13:49] earl_, ls -lh / | grep media | awk '{print $1 $2 $3 $4}' this command should give you the info that sonne is asking for [13:50] earl_: fuck it just run `sudo filezilla` then if it works we will know it's permission issues. [13:50] sonne: nope. just arrived. [13:50] keinheit: boy isn't that radical [13:50] sonne: oh, i was thinking you got questions about posix perms [13:50] tchakatak: earl_'s filezilla cannot see /media, we're wondering why [13:50] Sorry [13:50] keinheit: watch the language, please [13:50] hmmm when i run sudo filezilla it doesnt open lol [13:50] does /media exist ? [13:50] earl_: normal. [13:51] earl_: can you please tell us what the first column in the /media row looks like when you do ls -l / ? [13:51] so we get that out of the way [13:51] sure [13:51] drwxrwxr-x [13:52] good, that's how it should look like [13:52] <_13LACK_> ok [13:52] have him use a pastebin.. this guessing is killing me :) ... [13:52] Hi [13:52] earl_: can you paste the full line with /media inside ? [13:52] Mathisen: he seems to be very cautious about his private data, i don't see a reason why he should pastebin all of his files [13:52] I have a filesystem where btrfs has given several uncorrectable errors. I need to find all the files that give "Input/output error" when read [13:53] it's 200gb of data; any better solution than md5sum everything? I first of all want to find the single broken files. [13:53] vincenzoml: md5sum will not help you [13:53] vincenzoml: this error happend also when you touch a file ? [13:53] yea its showing media folder in everything you guys tell me to do [13:54] tchakatak, well if it says io error... [13:54] ioria: Cheez: i managed to build notepadpp, seems to be exactly what i was looking for - just thought i'd share :) [13:54] earl_: i just wana know who is the owner of the directory [13:54] i just cant see it in file borwser or filezilla, shows everything but that [13:54] sure, i can paste it, what command am i running [13:54] earl_: desperate attempt: open a terminal, run these two commands: "mkdir ~/yyy" , "sudo mount -o bind /media/youruser/* /home/youruser/yyy" , check 'yyy' under filezilla [13:54] earl_: if you do ' cd /media && ls ' does it list the files inside ? [13:55] if that works i'll still be puzzled about filezilla's weird behaviour, but at least you got unblocked :P [13:55] ducasse: I just read the guidelines, didn't realise. Will not happen again. [13:56] tchakatak if i do that command it brings up my user name [13:56] tchakatak, I'll check but the error also showed up in dmesg as a crc error and in btrfs scrub [13:56] sonne, trying that now [13:57] tchakatak, so first of all I want to recover the files from my backup and make sure all files I have don't have those crc errors without re-scrubbing [13:57] yup. but you need to interact with thoses to generate your error no ? [13:57] so is touching the file making an io error ? [13:57] tchakatak, I tried to touch the file and it does not give any error [13:57] one file [13:57] ok. [13:57] the one I knew about :) [13:57] if you cat it ? [13:57] sonne" it says mount point does not exist [13:58] tchakatak, if I sha256sum it, I get IO error [13:58] did you do the mkdir ~/yyy first? [13:58] tchakatak, if I cat it, yes, also [13:59] then you could script something for that [13:59] I got these errors during a huge rsync between usb disks; I wonder if that is normal but I'm starting to suspect my mainboard. I also have a nvme drive that got broken. [13:59] sonne: ok did it [13:59] tchakatak, yes but I would have to read 200gb of data again, possibly triggering new bus errors; I could as well read just one byte from each file, but don't know how to do it and get my errors reported. Maybe dd [14:00] vincenzoml: you can use find for that :) [14:00] find . -name * exec {} blabla [14:00] earl_: i suppose the mount worked after that? [14:00] tchakatak, find can also read file contents? [14:00] you pipe whateveryou want from find [14:00] sonne: yes i can see yyy [14:00] use find to list all files [14:00] tchakatak, yes I tried with find + xargs + dd, but it's tricky: dd spits on stderr some information [14:00] earl_: in filezilla? [14:00] and on stderr if it fails [14:00] and can you see the drive contents/ [14:00] ? [14:01] tchakatak, forget about this: I can't read 1 byte. [14:01] why dd ? you just need to sha256sum the file to trigger your error [14:01] so you can just list the files, made a sha256 then grep if there is an error and report it into a text file [14:01] tchakatak, my own problem was that I wanted to avoid reading all of the data at once. I wanted just to check for IO error by trying to access each file without reading it in full. [14:02] tchakatak, however: [14:02] sonne: yes it shows the content [14:02] vincenzoml: i/o error can be tricky especially with btrfs [14:02] tchakatak, I can't do that, simply because these errors don't show up on all accesses, but only when I read the block which is damaged. [14:02] <_13LACK_> you sure the content is you removible drive content? [14:02] earl_: cool. i'm glad i unblocked you. this is a horribly ugly workaround that will only work until your next reboot, and probably blocks you from removing your drive until you reboot or unmount it manually. in the meantime please call an exorcist. [14:03] tchakatak, yes I'm seeing it. So perhaps I should scrub the filesystem again and monitor the logs. The problem is currently my ROOT is on the device since my nvme is also damaged [14:03] vincenzoml: even, you cant be 100%sure of the files who have been damaged [14:03] _13LACk_ there is only one folder i put in there with nothing it, fresh drive [14:03] oh boy. [14:04] horrible suspicion, hold on [14:04] sonne: I'm shocked that worked. [14:04] tchakatak, why? Is there more I should know? [14:04] vincenzoml: if the file is not accessed, you might never know this file was damaged [14:04] tchakatak, well md5sum will likely work anyway since I have backups [14:04] nope, never mind. i suspected filezilla would hide empty folders, but that is not the case. [14:04] tchakatak, yes, but btrfs scrub is for that purpose: it scrubs the whole filesystem block by block :) [14:05] keinheit: picture me as shocked [14:05] but I'll make a snapshot instead, and md5sum everything [14:05] lol [14:05] earl_: your usb... you just buyed it ? [14:05] its a HDD [14:05] Is it new ? [14:06] or have been trough a windows computer before ? [14:06] yes it has been through windows [14:06] anyway i really have to run now, too bad because i really wanted to see how this story ended [14:06] :) [14:06] see you :) [14:06] was wiped before i switched to ubuntu [14:06] thanks sonne [14:06] wiped on windows ? [14:06] vincenzoml: you will have no choice anyway to md5 /sha256 everything [14:06] when i say wiped, i just mean that everything was deleted off of it while installing ubuntu [14:07] earl_: your trying to access trough filezilla files who are in a usb hdd ? or a removable device ? [14:08] a remote desktop [14:08] your /media problem. Where are the datas ? [14:08] a remote computer ? [14:09] not understanding your question fully, i just cant see the media folder on filezilla to download things on to [14:10] yes [14:10] but in the media folder there is data right ? [14:10] where are theses datas ? [14:10] i am just thinking it could be an access problem with a previously used device on windows [14:11] there is nothing on the drive [14:11] because /media is generally for removable devices / server [14:11] so you connect something to your computer, and it show under /media [14:12] yea this is an internal HDD, i have an SSD that is my boot drive, when i first set up the OS it showed my HDD in disk and so i mounted it [14:12] Ok. [14:12] and it puts it under /media/user/drivename [14:12] yes exactly [14:12] could you give me ALL the line of a ls -al /media/user/ [14:13] i just think there is a permisson problem [14:13] earl_: To be 100% sure `cd /media/user/drivername` and `touch anything` see if that works. [14:13] drwxrwxrwx+ 3 root root 4096 Dec 9 20:59 . [14:13] drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Dec 5 17:46 .. [14:13] drwxrwxrwx 3 earl earl 4096 Dec 10 09:01 earLsauce [14:13] tchakatak: permissions are fine [14:13] yup [14:14] <_13LACK_> do have filezilla some configuration like "don't show removable drives" ?? [14:14] _13LACK_: not that i am aware of [14:14] keinheit i typed in that command === capella|away is now known as capella [14:14] what do u mean by touch anything [14:15] now ls, if the file there [14:15] yea folder is there when i do ls [14:15] it creates a file called `anything`, just want to be sure you can write to the drive [14:16] oh yes the file anything is there [14:17] _13LACK_'s suggestion makes sense considering that works AND sommes' idea works as well. Maybe there is a setting in Filezilla about ignoring mounted drives. [14:17] then it's time to set sensible permissions on it [14:23] yea not sure what to do at this point [14:26] Following sommes suggestion can you do everything you need from /home/youruser/yyy now? [14:28] filezilla shows /yyy now, but sonne said that after a reboot it would not work [14:29] <_13LACK_> keinheit: yup... i was thinking that filezilla hide the removable devices directory (/media as default) [14:31] is it possible to mount the hard drive anywhere else ? [14:32] just starting to use linux so my knowledge isnt great [14:33] earl_: You could add the command to the last line of your ~/.profile file so it runs every time you log in (bringing back ~/yyy) but then you would lose out on the journey of finding out what the original problem was. [14:34] <_13LACK_> earl_: yup .. You can mount HD or removable drive in anywhere.... But, the indicate is use /media directory [14:34]
