[00:14] hello all [00:14] is there a ubuntu legacy channel? [00:15] Haris: explain "ubuntu legacy" . [00:16] I have apache 2.4.7 on ubuntu 14.04 lts. I need mod evasive on it. its installed. but acting like its not enabled or not working [00:16] there has been thoughts about it, -legacy; support for eol versions, but no. [00:16] I have a HTTP DDoS to mitigate [00:16] no support for 14.04 [00:16] mod_evasive is like its there but not working [00:16] try the security or pentest channels? [00:17] pull network cable [00:17] that would be safe, yes. [00:18] that's not funny guys [00:18] there's pen test channels here? [00:18] not in #ubuntu [00:18] !alis [00:18] Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [00:22] it's not from rufus either [00:23] that insist to do a efi and make a fat32 parition install appears to be a bug in ucuntu 18.04 and up [00:23] if there isn't a way ti disable that crap I will just reload 16.04 and do a sysup [00:23] this is rediculous [00:24] also if I try to do lvm it bombs installing grub as well [00:24] not that I need lvm or care [00:25] who left you out of ##security containment? [00:25] for many other poeple, it just works fine. [00:25] something must be specific to what you're doing [00:26] no I have seen it on 3+ machines now [00:26] flyback: try some other method of writing the installation media [00:26] I d id [00:26] same shit [00:26] three of the same machines? [00:27] nope [00:27] 2 laptops, 2 servers [00:27] all predate efi [00:27] and you're using which ubuntu installer image exactly? [00:28] the iso is hybrid, so if it writes an uefi part on it, that is not a bug. [00:28] so it's setting up a boot system for hardware that does not exist [00:29] genius [00:29] if you talk about the usb, yes, genius. [00:29] heh [00:30] sad and pathetic [00:30] if your system creates a efi part during install, it is not 'predate efi'.. [00:30] I been in the IT field almost 30 yrs [00:31] it's my job to take apart hardware and troubleshoot systems [00:31] poweredge 840 PREDATES EFI [00:31] LATITUDE d830 predares efi [00:31] latitude d820 predares efi [00:32] hell i'll read out the bios image and run it thru binwalk and prove [00:32] NO EFI CODE [00:32] k thx [00:39] https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/de/de/debsdt1/poweredge-r840/per840_ism_pub/boot-settings Title: Dell EMC PowerEdge R840 Installation and Service Manual (at www.dell.com) first sentence: "You can use the Boot Settings screen to set the boot mode to either BIOS or UEFI." [00:39] it's not the r840 [00:39] genius [00:39] this is a old core2xeon based system from 2008 [00:39] anything else? [00:40] *proest* [00:40] this behavior didn't start till after 16.04 server [00:40] BMCC [00:40] * flyback smacks oerheks with a canadian [00:42] !bmcc oerheks [00:42] oerheks: BITE MY 'CANUCK', CANUCK! [00:42] So I encrypted the system partition. But now it dumps me to GRUB and I don't know why. [00:45] MikeRL: hey, we have soemthing in common - we also don'T know why. or what you're running, or how you installed. or what you installed. [00:48] I was looking for the program. [00:50] I used cryptsetup-reencrypt on /dev/sda6 (Ubuntu 20.04 install) and it wasn't previously encrypted. [00:51] Did so from a live USB and the encryption succeeded without error. I followed the man page for the program. [00:51] and this was the system currently running at the time? [00:51] ah ok [00:51] Yes [00:52] hmm, did you update-initramfs afterwards? [00:52] Nope. [00:52] should have. don't know how to. [00:52] Let me search it. [00:52] you'd also need to edit /etc/crypttab [00:52] My guess is I can chroot in. [00:53] Edit it to what? [00:53] you can probably chroot to it if you're running a 20.04 live system [00:53] (possibly also with others) [00:53] there's a man page for crypttab, i believe [00:54] yes, crypttab(5) [00:54] says error mounting after unlocking in disks. [00:54] I did use the correct passphrase. [00:54] i'd do it on the CLI, don't know the GUI tools well enough [00:55] also, i like to know what went wrong [00:55] how do I make my mouse faster? I already have sensitivity to max. Or how do I increase dpi ? [00:56] settings -> devices -> mouse & touchpad -> mouse speed [00:56] Hmm. "mount: /mnt: unknown filesystem type 'crypto_LUKS' [00:57] I typed in "sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/" [00:57] After fdisk -l. That shows the install [00:57] you need to sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 sda6_crypt [00:57] Oh thanks [00:58] then sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt /whereveryouwantit [00:59] unless you have lvm in there or some other layers [00:59] First one isn't being typed in correctly. [01:00] is there a key stroke eating monster on your keyboard? [01:00] I typed "sudo cryptsetup lukes0pen /dev/sda6 sda6_crypt. [01:00] this one is without using the force, luke [01:00] was that a typo? no just using irc on phone. sucks [01:00] just luksOpen [01:00] will change to desktop [01:01] and an upper case oooh, not a zero [01:02] Bingo. [01:02] Says already mounted. [01:03] Disks must've done the same thing as the first command. [01:04] so do you see at the mount point what you expect to see? [01:04] "mount: /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt: can't find in /etc/fstab". [01:05] More useful error than the GUI. [01:06] you need to indicate where to mount to [01:06] but then you just said it was already mounted? [01:06] if so, "mount" would say === Guest36472 is now known as Sebastien [01:09] I see nothing under mount. [01:09] It appeared mounted. my mistake. Shows in nautilus. under other locations. [01:10] but clicking it in disks and nautilus generates an error. [01:10] looks like you're still working with gui tools [01:11] Under mount command I see the Windows partition and a few MB partition I labelled ENCRYPT. [01:11] Used cli as well [01:11] what is a "MB partition"? [01:12] few megabytes. [01:12] ok sorry i really didn't get it, it's getting late [01:12] That's fine. [01:12] maybe you can share the fidsk - loutput? [01:13] I did get a more detailed error from using the cli earlier, too. did you catch it? [01:13] maybe you can share the fdisk -l output? [01:13] which one do you mean? [01:13] this? "mount: /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt: can't find in /etc/fstab". [01:13] Yes. [01:14] i had responded this: you need to indicate where to mount to - but then you just said it was already mounted? if so, "mount" would say. === zbenjamin is now known as Guest46411 === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:14] I thought it was mounted [01:14] it was not. [01:14] i see. so run what i suggested earlier: [01:14] then sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt /whereveryouwantit [01:15] replace /whereveryouwantit by an existing, empty directory [01:15] Can I place it in mnt? [01:16] in /mnt ? yes, if nothing else is mounted there [01:16] mnt is ok. [01:16] Similar error to GUI. [01:17] "mnt" is not ok, "/mnt" probably is [01:17] so you want to disclose this similar error? [01:18] "mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. [01:19] sda6_crypt did print with sudo fdisk -l [01:19] and the exact command you ran was? [01:19] sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt /mnt [01:20] The directory was empty as well. [01:20] why is my do-release-upgrade on a 19.10 system not yet offering me 20.04 unless I do the -d switch? [01:20] MikeRL: looks good. what's the output of file -s /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt [01:20] !ltsupgrade [01:20] Regular upgrades from 18.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS will be enabled once 20.04.1 is released in late July. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d [01:20] The cli and GUI errors even have very similar wording. but said wording is vague. [01:20] MikeRL: with sudo please [01:20] it happens with 20.04.1 point release, i would wait [01:21] "/dev/mapper/sda6_crypt: symbolic link to ../dm-0 [01:21] crap. [01:22] oerheks: I get why my 18.4 instances are not offering it - my question is why does my 19.10 not offer it? [01:22] Same output with sudo. [01:22] aaaardvark__, same reason, LTS gives a different upgrade path, by design [01:22] MikeRL: that's ok. what's the output of sudo file -sL /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt [01:23] go for the -d option [01:23] At least I do have a 20.04 have from this week just in case. will get output. [01:23] oerheks: I relaize I can do the -d option - my qiestion remains why I am not being offered the choice without the -d [01:23] Give me a sec. can use hexchat. [01:24] typing on the phone is a pita. [01:24] sure [01:24] I have spun up a KVM 20.04 and amd REALLY impressed how fast it boots compared to 18.4 and 19.10 [01:25] oerheks: but all docs I can find say that the 19.10->20.04 should be available by now [01:25] lots of development project need this pause [01:25] Back. [01:25] Output is "/dev/mapper/sda6_crypt: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=e690c737-9fbc-402c-ab8a-657cfe879a5e (extents) (64bit) (large files) (huge files) [01:25] " [01:25] all the doc, like omgubuntu? [01:26] the iso is available for download. [01:27] oerheks: yes - I know it is available, as I said, I spun up a KVM version and really appreciate how much faster booting is [01:27] MikeRL: hmm, now i'm puzzles as to why this wouldn't mount with "mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt, missing codepage or helper program, or other error." unless /mnt doesn't exist, of course. [01:27] *puzzleD [01:28] "/mnt" in the live usb [01:28] MikeRL: you could run e2fsck against it [01:28] Against the unlocked partition? [01:28] MikeRL: yes, /mnt on the live usb, should probably exist, and be writable, by root. [01:29] MikeRL: against the unlocked partition but unmounted file system on top of this partition, yes [01:29] use -f [01:30] https://ibb.co/DYv92Q1 [01:30] Proof the folder exists and has the right permissions. [01:31] pretty tiny proof, but yes [01:31] though i have less trust in GUIs [01:31] !paste [01:31] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [01:32] Should I specify any arguments? [01:32] use -f [01:32] Didn't know that bot. [01:33] e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting. [01:33] Even though it says unmounted already after typing in sudo umount /dev/sda6 [01:33] please show the full command you ran and its full output [01:34] or re-run like this: sudo e2fsck -fn /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt 2>&1 | nc termbin.com 9999 [01:34] Will rerun. [01:35] https://termbin.com/g1fp [01:35] Looks like the size is off. [01:36] the file system is larger than the container [01:36] you may have lost some data [01:36] How to go about fixing it? Well I got a backup. [01:36] File system had a lot of free space on it, but I take it that doesn't guarantee anything. [01:36] cryptsetup-reencrypt doesn't state it with as many uppercase characters as it probbaly needs to [01:37] it doesn't ensure that the existing file system will still fit onto the encryption layer [01:37] but obviously the resulting file system will need to be smaller than it used to be [01:37] since the encryption layer also takes some space on the partition [01:38] So, what is the next recommended move? I'm wondering... [01:38] you can resize2fs the file system [01:38] but i'm not sure it'll be happy to do this with a dirty file system [01:39] actually it may not have the dirty bit set [01:39] I'll run it with the -f option. [01:40] is it needed, though? [01:41] Uh oh. [01:41] Failed. [01:41] "resize2fs 1.45.5 (07-Jan-2020) resize2fs: Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda6 Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock." [01:41] busy? so it is mounted? [01:41] what did you run? [01:42] Nothing except what was told. [01:42] /dev/sda6 [01:42] no one said /dev/sda6 [01:43] that's a partition containing a crypto layer [01:43] Oh. [01:43] It's supposed to be sda6_crypt, right? [01:43] yes, in a different directory [01:43] e2fsck and resize2fs operate on file systems [01:44] sda6_crypt is the unlocked crypto layer containing a file system [01:44] OK. [01:44] So I tried that. But where would the directory be? [01:45] Sorry I am not well versed with encryption on Linux. Or in general. [01:45] "/dev/mapper/sda6_crypt: symbolic link to ../dm-0 [01:45] Did see that in a command earlier. [01:46] so you can either specify /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt or /dev/dm-0 [01:47] "ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt$ sudo resize2fs -f /dev/dm-0 [01:47] resize2fs 1.45.5 (07-Jan-2020) [01:47] Resizing the filesystem on /dev/dm-0 to 136758784 (4k) blocks.

Using 20.04 LTS [01:48] MikeRL: use https://paste.ubuntu.com [01:48] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CyZX65G4FQ/ [01:48] (see /topic ) [01:49] so do what it suggests [01:49] I could try running the suggested command next.

[01:50] MikeRL: details please [01:50] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/98KDDPBJ8Q/ [01:52] MikeRL: so i'm not sure how to handle this situation gracefully other than by copying this file system onto a a device that provides as much space as the file system thinks it is large. [01:52] Verbose mode gives the same output. [01:52] !help [01:52] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [01:52] i need help! when i close lid i want my screen to lock. how to do that? Using 20.04 LTS [01:52] MikeRL: you can re-run without -y and continue, possibly breaking the file system [01:52] Figured something out. === gabkdlly_ is now known as gabkdlly [01:54] is this channel logged? [01:54] It was auto-answering yes, Figured that out of the man pages. [01:54] I don't think the command fixed it. I will give another paste. [01:55] heitibd: irclogs.ubuntu.com [01:55] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rkSrHmrNgY/ [01:55] Could try replacing the superblock [01:55] tomreyn: how can i grep it? [01:57] So what caused my error in short again? The partition was resized too small? The man page mentions that can be done to create another partition for the encryption keys. [01:58] MikeRL: what you need to do is to resize the file system to match the size of its underlying layer, which has decreased due to adding the crypto layer in between [01:58] Yeah no errors except the size thing. [01:58] MikeRL: you can specify a desired size when running resize2fs [01:59] How do I go about it? It coughed up issues before. Try this time with /dev/dm-0? [01:59] Is the default size in bytes? [01:59] no, in blocks [01:59] Is there a way to specify in bytes? [02:00] the size returned by e2fsck is also in blocks [02:00] so it should be easy [02:00] sudo resize2fs /dev/mapper/sda6_crypt 136758784 [02:01] heitibd: you can download logs, then run grep on them, i guess [02:02] there [02:02] fixed [02:02] tomreyn i want to without download.. or if not possible how to download? [02:02] just had to do a manual partition because the installer system incorrectely assumes it's a efi system [02:02] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/xNCq9Y2DB4/ [02:03] Stuck in a loop. e2fsck -f returns no errors. [02:03] heitibd: what are you hoping to achieve? [02:03] tomreyn you join now? [02:05] gnome-teak-tool gives the option 'suspend when laptop lid is closed' [02:05] !info gnome-tweak-tool [02:05] MikeRL: so yes, try a different superblock, the original one is probably no longer there [02:05] no it doesnt [02:05] gnome-tweak-tool (source: gnome-tweaks): adjust advanced settings for GNOME - transitional package. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.34.0-2 (eoan), package size 1 kB, installed size 12 kB [02:05] yes it does. [02:06] wait suspend [02:06] i said iwant lock [02:06] please read.. [02:06] I may just restore and reencrypt. But where did I go wrong? I'd have to reread the man page. [02:06] Thanks for all the help. [02:06] oerheks suspends works but i want to lock instead [02:07] MikeRL: i tried to explain twice :/ [02:07] I must've not read it. Oops. [02:07] MikeRL: using 'reencrypt', you're adding a new layer between the partition and the file system. this layer takes some space. [02:08] so you need to shrink the file system before you do it [02:08] As in shrinking the partition via the GUI would cut it? [02:09] shrinking a partition is a different action than shrinling a file system [02:09] Yes. [02:10] some GUIs would realize that they would need to shrink upper layers if you try to shrink lower layers. others may not. [02:10] dconf editor gives some paths; org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power lid-close-ac-action --- org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power lid-close-battery-action [02:10] both are suspend standard [02:11] So there's a difference... Shrinking a file system sets aside space for stuff like encryption. [02:12] oerheks they dont have option to lock [02:12] MikeRL: if you'll keep the partition at the same size, then running the resize2fs command to shrink the file system to the specific size of 136758784 blocks (or safer: a litte less) *before* doing the 'reencrypt' should make things work fine. [02:12] if that does not apply, HandleLidSwitch=lock https://askubuntu.com/a/1200757 [02:13] oerheks oh yeah it doesnt work LOL [02:15] Tired. Thanks. What I'll do is shrink from the command after a restore. Maybe 136600000? === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [02:15] Should be enough. At least I hope. [02:16] MikeRL: you can extend the file system to cover the full available space within the crypto layer after cryptsetup_reencrypt finished. [02:16] extending is as easy as running resize2fs against the file system without any parameters [02:17] even works while it's mounted [02:17] for the preparatory step of shrinking the file system, see the example "Add LUKS encryption to not yet encrypted device" in cryptsetup-reencrypt(8) [02:19] Thank you sir. [02:19] I am tired now. Goodbye. [02:19] MikeRL: 136600000 is less than 136758784 so it should be ok [02:19] Yep. [02:19] goodbye, tired here, too [02:28] @tomreyn, I already said I have it on max [02:35] hi [02:35] someone wrote something? [03:12] Does anyone from the maintainers comes here?

[06:26] so long without updates, .. bad [06:29] Junior: Unless you are paying for extended support, 14.04 stopped receiving security updates in 2019 [06:32] yes, why should we take this request seriously [06:38] Junior: I don't know much about it, but it kinda looks like you can get 5.6 on 20.04 from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php/+packages?field.name_filter=5.6&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter= [06:38] Junior: after which you should definitely upgrade your PHP stuff, and/or stop using such a poorly implemented language altogether [06:39] Hey! I have an ubuntu 18.04 server set up on AWS. I didn't yet get the option to upgrade to 20.04. even after running a do-release-upgrade. [06:39] !ltsupgrade [06:39] Regular upgrades from 18.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS will be enabled once 20.04.1 is released in late July. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d [06:39] wait for 20.04.1 [06:40] Oh! Okay. Thanks! [06:40] and aws, they will provide images, i hope [06:42] And what about those running 19.10? [06:47] matsaman i have some old apps on php 5.5, i have upgraded most of them i cannot install on 18/20 ubuntu 5.5 :) [06:48] php 5.5 isn't compatible with 5.6? [06:48] if so that's worse than I thought, which was pretty worse [06:51] some elements changed from 5.5 to 5.6 [06:51] i don't have many apps on 5.5 though [06:52] my sole problem is untill when i have to upgrade [06:52]
