| bumblefuzz | so I just installed ubuntu | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| bumblefuzz | and did `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`` | 00:10 |
| bumblefuzz | and it's telling me that grub failed to install to the following devices | 00:11 |
| bumblefuzz | I tried to reinstall it and it does the same thing | 00:11 |
| bumblefuzz | I've never come across where something just didn't install | 00:11 |
| bumblefuzz | especially grub | 00:12 |
| bumblefuzz | can anyone help? | 00:12 |
| kinghat | how do you say yes to "Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])?" in gftp? | 00:12 |
| kinghat | its in the log window | 00:12 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz we rather need more info to help you | 00:19 |
| bumblefuzz | what would you like? | 00:19 |
| bumblefuzz | this is all the info I have | 00:19 |
| quadrathoch2 | give us the output to "and it's telling me that grub failed to install to the following devices" I'm pretty sure there is more than that | 00:20 |
| bumblefuzz | GRUB failed to install to the following devices: │ │ │ │ /dev/sda2 │ │ │ │ Do you want to | 00:20 |
| bumblefuzz | continue anyway? If you do, your computer may not start │ │ up properly. │ │ │ │ Writing GRUB to boot device failed - continue? | 00:20 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz do you still have a usb stick or so connected? | 00:20 |
| bumblefuzz | no | 00:21 |
| bumblefuzz | I'm booted in the new install | 00:21 |
| bumblefuzz | just trying to run update and upgrade | 00:21 |
| bumblefuzz | and this came up | 00:21 |
| bumblefuzz | it's brand new | 00:21 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz this is a bios/legacy install or? | 00:21 |
| bumblefuzz | UEFI | 00:21 |
| quadrathoch2 | can you give me the output of /etc/fstab in a paste (paste.ubuntu.com) | 00:23 |
| bumblefuzz | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/yRPp42PMtr/ | 00:24 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz so I guess when you 'sudo update-grub' the same error gets displayed? | 00:25 |
| bumblefuzz | grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdc1. | 00:26 |
| bumblefuzz | grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdc1. | 00:26 |
| bumblefuzz | it made it to done | 00:26 |
| bumblefuzz | after those errors | 00:26 |
| quadrathoch2 | so what device is sdc? | 00:27 |
| bumblefuzz | I'm reflashing an ubuntu install disk | 00:27 |
| bumblefuzz | 16gb USB drive | 00:27 |
| bumblefuzz | cause I might have to reinstall everything | 00:27 |
| quadrathoch2 | okay, so that error is fine | 00:27 |
| quadrathoch2 | it should work, still not sure why you got that error :/ | 00:27 |
| bumblefuzz | it seems like that worked | 00:28 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz the only thing I can think of, grub thought it was a bios/legacy install and thats why it tried to install the 'mbr' part | 00:28 |
| bumblefuzz | but I literally booted into a fresh install and ran ` sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade` and landed on this GRUB error | 00:28 |
| bumblefuzz | how can I make a new install if I can' upgrade | 00:28 |
| bumblefuzz | can't* | 00:28 |
| quadrathoch2 | what do you mean by you can't upgrade? packages or distro version? | 00:29 |
| bumblefuzz | this is very simple: I installed ubuntu | 00:29 |
| bumblefuzz | then I booted the new install | 00:29 |
| bumblefuzz | and the FIRST thing I did was run `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade` | 00:30 |
| bumblefuzz | then I had this GRUB error | 00:30 |
| bumblefuzz | if I cannot upgrade packages, how am I supposed to install ubuntu | 00:30 |
| bumblefuzz | ?? | 00:30 |
| quadrathoch2 | I mean try to boot (after having the install usb) and test it out. imho it should be fine now. | 00:30 |
| bumblefuzz | but the upgrade is stalled on this grub error | 00:31 |
| quadrathoch2 | i guess, if you want to use the whole disk that the installer formats the whole disk, to make sure to start from a clean plate | 00:31 |
| bumblefuzz | grub has not been updated | 00:31 |
| quadrathoch2 | even if you rerun apt upgrade? | 00:31 |
| bumblefuzz | I don't know what's going on | 00:33 |
| bumblefuzz | every time I run upgrade, it lists a bunch of packages that have been kept back | 00:33 |
| quadrathoch2 | post the output to a paste, so I can read it | 00:34 |
| bumblefuzz | eading package lists... DoneBuilding dependency tree Reading state information... DoneCalculating upgrade...

| bumblefuzz | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nNQ6nVjpTD/ | 00:35 |
| quadrathoch2 | bumblefuzz what happens on a 'sudo apt full-upgrade' don't accept, paste it on paste.ubuntu.com | 00:36 |
| bumblefuzz | that appears to be running | 00:36 |
| bumblefuzz | why wouldn't the usual command work? | 00:36 |
| bumblefuzz | I've never had this much trouble on a fresh install | 00:36 |
| quadrathoch2 | I guess the nvidia driver is acting up, full-upgrade is allowed to remove packages | 00:37 |
| quadrathoch2 | upgrade doesn't | 00:37 |
| bumblefuzz | I'm going to try and reboot | 00:38 |
| jasonosublu_ | Hello | 00:45 |
| jasonosublu_ | I was wondering if you could please help me getting a bluetooth multi-touch mouse to work with Lubuntu? Thank you. | 00:45 |
| jasonosublu_ | some people suggested selecting two-finger in the touchpad settings, however, that option is greyed out so I can't select it | 00:48 |
| jasonosublu_ | On other devices and in Windows 10 the touch-surface mouse works normal | 00:48 |
| jasonosublu_ | However, in Lubuntu 20.04 LTS I can't seem to get it to work the same way for scrolling | 00:48 |
| jasonosublu_ | Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I've been trying to get this to work for weeks. | 00:48 |
| GunArm_ | still can't get anything but a black screen after grub. made a post here https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2453703&p=14000383 | 01:59 |
| GunArm_ | is there any kind of... driver diagnostic or something I can do through SSH that might shed some light? | 02:00 |
| matsaman | GunArm_: do you have a live OS image handy? Does video output work after GRUB for it? | 02:04 |
| GunArm_ | let me see I probably have one in a drawer already | 02:04 |
| quadrathoch2 | GunArm_ I would also say, that maybe post the whole /etc/default/grub file (at least here in a pastebin) | 02:05 |
| GunArm_ | https://pastebin.com/mU1315HG | 02:07 |
| quadrathoch2 | GunArm_ do you have a samsung ssd? | 02:12 |
| darkdigitaldream | I'm running ubuntu 20.04 desktop pulled from the main website today. I installed it on a new inspiron 7300 2n1 convertible laptop/tablet. The stylus worked fine in all orientations right up to after the fresh install did a system update and reboot. | 02:16 |
| darkdigitaldream | Now, after orienting the device, the screen will flip to the new orientation but the stylus position is mirrored in all but the default orientation (where it works fine) | 02:17 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream, i have mostly no idea, but did you install the oem ubuntu version? (i guess it's a certified laptop?) | 02:18 |
| GunArm_ | quadrathoch2: interesting question, yes. although I also have a WD NVME as the boot drive, and that is the one that has caused me problems (it's why I have that one option set in grub already, or it would lock up in some kind of low power mode) | 02:18 |
| quadrathoch2 | GunArm_ ahh okay, as the arch wiki specifically says samsung ssds and only kernel 4.10 (which is pretty old) | 02:19 |
| GunArm_ | yeah that was a nightmare to figure out when I was first building this machine | 02:19 |
| === zbenjamin is now known as Guest6166 | ||
| === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin | ||
| quadrathoch2 | I can imagine :/ | 02:19 |
| GunArm_ | took me literally weeks to get it working | 02:19 |
| quadrathoch2 | but back to topic, I guess you edited the boot entries in grub and not the file? GunArm_ | 02:20 |
| GunArm_ | yeah, booting is a slow process because of the raid bios, so I don't want to have to reboot twice for each test | 02:20 |
| GunArm_ | also it's pretty easy to just see like, with an option, hit f10 and then it looks like the backlight turns off on the screen | 02:21 |
| GunArm_ | booting with a live disk is a good idea, I just I guess will need to make one since I can't find one around | 02:21 |
| quadrathoch2 | yup :). still not sure why you even installed the closed source nvidia driver, but I guess the nouveau wasn't working? GunArm_ | 02:21 |
| quadrathoch2 | GunArm_ yeah that's a very good idea | 02:22 |
| GunArm_ | quadrathoch2 oh that's easy to explain, because I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm throwing things at the wall to see what sticks ;) | 02:22 |
| darkdigitaldream | quadrathoch2 I see no official OEM listing/distro for this device | 02:22 |
| GunArm_ | is nouveau the open source driver? | 02:22 |
| quadrathoch2 | haha xD. that gpu is so old that the open source driver works perfectly fine | 02:22 |
| darkdigitaldream | The part that I find most interesting is that this works before a software update. Something in the update breaks this feature | 02:23 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream are we talking about 20.04 package updates i assume? | 02:27 |
| darkdigitaldream | quadrathoch2 yes. The iso install works fine. It works fine after a reboot. Then it quickly suggests updates and a reboot, after which the feature breaks | 02:30 |
| darkdigitaldream | installer* | 02:30 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream, damn so means that a package upgrade breaks the pen support :/ | 02:31 |
| quadrathoch2 | could you look at the logs in /var/log/apt/history.log and post it to paste.ubuntu.com darkdigitaldream | 02:32 |
| kinghat | it looks like in that sftp docker image you have to map your users to host users otherwise you cant give them permissions | 02:34 |
| darkdigitaldream | quadrathoch2 https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/f39qvmHdcS/ | 02:35 |
| darkdigitaldream | lots of libwacom updates by eyeballing the list. Not sure if thats a lead or not | 02:39 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream the only things I can see, a small part of the xserver was updated, and the kernel. the wacom stuff was the stuff on the ISO which was installed during installation | 02:44 |
| alazy | Just tried installing recommended nvidia drivers via "ubuntu-drivers autoinstall". Ended at this: update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.4.0-53-generic \n E: Could not configure 'libc6:i386'. | 02:45 |
| quadrathoch2 | alazy did you activate the 32bit architecture? | 02:47 |
| alazy | quadrathoch2: No. I installed 64 bit OS. What am I supposed to do? | 02:48 |
| darkdigitaldream | hmm, so the good news is there are only a few spots this issue can come from. The bad news is its xserver and the kernel :/ | 02:48 |
| quadrathoch2 | 'sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386' 'sudo apt update' and then redo the 'ubuntu-drivers autoinstall' | 02:48 |
| quadrathoch2 | alazy ^ | 02:48 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream and or ;) | 02:49 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream the kernel would be the easiest to test out, as the older version should still be installed, you would just need to reboot and select it in grub | 02:49 |
| darkdigitaldream | oh, thats a good idea | 02:49 |
| alazy | Did that. Ubuntu-drivers autoinstall didn't seem to do anything. Just read list, built dep tree, read state info, and then told me 0 upgraded. | 02:52 |
| alazy | Should I try to remove what was autoinstalled then reinstall? | 02:53 |
| quadrathoch2 | could you try 'sudo apt install -f' | 02:54 |
| alazy | same nothing | 02:54 |
| quadrathoch2 | alazy yup that would be probably the best bet then | 02:55 |

| quadrathoch2 | alazy should do it | 02:59 |
| quadrathoch2 | I am not 100% sure with the nvidia stuff :/ | 03:00 |
| alazy | quadrathoch2: thanks, I think that worked. | 03:02 |
| quadrathoch2 | just look it up, if it really did it ;) | 03:03 |
| darkdigitaldream | okay, so the old kernel has the same problem as the new. | 03:09 |
| quadrathoch2 | darkdigitaldream damn, so now only xorg could be the culprit, or some other package I have no idea about :/ but I guess xorg | 03:11 |
| darkdigitaldream | quadrathoch2 hmm. I also found another interesting tidbit: my finger on the screen works just fine. Its the stylus that inverts | 03:12 |

| Tehdastehdas | Unlike 18.04, my current 20.04 complains "Mouse battery below 10%" every time my mouse wakes up from hibernation. It hibernates after ~2 minutes of inactivity, so Ubuntu complains about it ~40 times/day in my use, which is most annoying when watching a movie and setting a cup on the table, waking the mouse. I want to limit the complaints to a | 07:28 |
| Tehdastehdas | minimum interval of ~1 day. How do I do that? | 07:28 |
| ducasse | change to a fresh battery? | 07:28 |
| Tehdastehdas | There's nothing wrong with this battery - there's still ~2 months of juice left. Anyway, that's irrelevant in my attempt to improve Ubuntu. Complaining to the user that often makes no sense in any situation. | 07:31 |
| ducasse | i have no clue what part of the desktop is responsible for this warning, wait for somebody who might know, but be aware it is very quiet here for another couple of hours | 07:33 |

| zetheroo | How to know which display driver is currently in use? | 08:49 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: sudo lshw -C video | 08:50 |
| zetheroo | lotuspsychje: Thanks, what does this mean " *-display UNCLAIMED" ? | 08:51 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: unclaimed means your driver has not loaded for your graphics card | 08:52 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: usually dmesg will spit out errors if the driver loading failed | 08:53 |
| zetheroo | I ave two gpu chipsets - Intel and Nvidia - and currently the Intel one seems to be active and the Nvidia not. I already installed the Nvidia 450 driver (tested) | 08:54 |
| zetheroo | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2GbpqrN3gJ/ | 08:55 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: try installing another driver version first, see if you can get the driver loaded | 08:55 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: ubuntu-drivers list, to see wich available | 08:56 |
| zetheroo | I installed the driver via the Software & Updates gui - was that wrong? | 08:57 |
| zetheroo | ubuntu-driver list https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kWH843MYqr/ | 08:57 |
| zetheroo | do I have to manually switch somehow from one gpu to another .... ? | 08:58 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: try switch to 435 | 08:58 |
| zetheroo | ok | 09:00 |
| zetheroo | strange - a 'Configuring Secure Boot' windo just popped up as the Nvidia 435 driver was being installed | 09:02 |
| zetheroo | wants be to set a Secure Boot password!? | 09:02 |
| zetheroo | https://ibb.co/3YfZ5yk | 09:04 |
| zetheroo | ok driver installed ... I guess a reboot is required? | 09:08 |
| zetheroo | no info saying a reboot is needed, but the Nvidia device is still unclaimed | 09:09 |
| zetheroo | on reboot, before the GRUB menu, I got an ugly blue screen asking me if I wanted to continue to boot or enroll MOT ... no idea what that was about ... I hope that isn't going to show up with every boot now : | 09:15 |
| zetheroo | Nvidia is still unclaimed | 09:15 |
| ducasse | zetheroo: you should have enrolled the MOK | 09:18 |
| ducasse | the instructions are given during driver install | 09:19 |
| zetheroo | ducasse: ah ok ... my bad | 09:20 |
| zetheroo | any idea why this did not happen with the 450 driver? | 09:20 |
| ducasse | ït's a secure boot thing, you could also disable that | 09:21 |
| ducasse | under secure boot, kernel and modules need to be signed. third-party modules aren't | 09:22 |
| ducasse | i thought this had been fixed, but apparently not | 09:23 |
| zetheroo | hmm ok | 09:23 |
| ducasse | what does 'mokutil --sb-state' say? | 09:24 |
| zetheroo | SecureBoot enabled | 09:24 |
| ducasse | right. disable that or run 'mokutil --enable-validation' and reboot, following the steps | 09:26 |
| zetheroo | ok | 09:26 |
| zetheroo | Failed to request new MokSB state | 09:27 |
| ducasse | did you set a password? | 09:27 |
| zetheroo | I entered my password twice correctly | 09:27 |
| zetheroo | yes | 09:27 |
| zetheroo | password = password | 09:27 |
| ducasse | then i guess you get the prompt on reboot | 09:28 |
| zetheroo | ok | 09:28 |
| ducasse | if not try --disable-validation | 09:28 |
| zetheroo | rebooted but no blue MOT screen | 09:32 |
| zetheroo | should I disable and then enable validation? | 09:33 |
| zetheroo | ah 'sudo' was needed for the '--enable-validation' command ... ok rebooting again | 09:38 |
| ace_me | hi. Inside a project i have a symlink inside a folder, which is a package. I am wondering how to ls ./vendor/me/bundle ? | 09:51 |

| ace_me | or ls ./vendor/me/bundle/some_folder | 09:51 |
| zetheroo | Nvidia display device is no longer unclaimed | 09:52 |
| ducasse | zetheroo: great, you should be able to switch between them in bios or software | 09:52 |
| zetheroo | ducasse: how do I know which one is in use atm? | 09:53 |
| zetheroo | or is it just done automatically ... | 09:53 |

| Starship8014 | hi, i am running a web server with ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS and whenever I login with SSH, it keeps suggesting me to upgrade to 20.0.1 LTS using "do-released-upgrade". I am a bit scared that my apache / php / etc configuration will be messed up. how safe is an update like that? | 13:17 |
| XV8 | Starship8014 too many deltas to consider. Make a backup/test restore, then move on to upgrade. If all fails, restore. | 13:20 |
| BlueEagle | Starship8014: As XV8 beat me to: If you have a backup that you know how to restore then you can do the upgrade. Based on anecdotal evidence the success rate for upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04 is 80% | 13:22 |
| Starship8014 | i have made a snapshot from my system and my hoster allows me to setup a new box based on that snapshot. I could do that, test the upgrade there and if it works, do it on my live as well. maybe that's a good way to go? | 13:23 |

| mefistofeles | ahylight: maybe something like vaults? https://learn.hashicorp.com/vault | 14:32 |
| ahylight | mefistofeles, I'll read about this, thanks! | 14:43 |
| ahylight | mefistofeles, I just posted the question here with more details: https://superuser.com/questions/1602585/backup-on-a-distant-dedicated-server-such-that-even-if-someone-gets-root-hack | 14:43 |
| ikonia | ahylight: encrypt it | 14:44 |
| ikonia | ahylight: in reality how senensitive is the data | 14:45 |
| ikonia | if it's that important, should you really be treating it this casually | 14:45 |
| ahylight | it's encrypted locally | 14:45 |
| ahylight | ikonia, I specifically want that the data is totally *impossible to use* on distant server | 14:46 |
| ikonia | ahylight: so if it's encypted locally, you're copying an encypted resource, root ont he remote server doesn't matter | 14:52 |
| ahylight | ikonia, the hard drive is encrypted, but when i open the computer and access to the files, they are not encrypted | 14:53 |
| ahylight | once the password is entered, you have normal access to the files | 14:54 |
| ahylight | i.e. if you send them via rsync etc. the destination will be *files*, normal files | 14:54 |
| ikonia | so encrypt the target | 14:54 |
| ahylight | so i need to enter a password via ssh etc. | 14:55 |
| ikonia | again - if it's that important should you truly be treating it this casually | 14:55 |
| ahylight | so if someone has a root access on the distant server, he can get the decryption key, do you see what i mean? | 14:56 |
| ikonia | he can't get the decyrption key | 14:56 |
| ahylight | why not? | 14:56 |
| ahylight | what do you mean by "encrypt the target"? | 14:56 |
| ahylight | more precisely | 14:56 |
| ikonia | make an encypted file and sync the file | 14:57 |
| ikonia | but again - if it's that important should you really be just 'throwing it' into a remote server | 14:57 |
| ahylight | ideally for backups drives it should be ok if they are stolen | 14:58 |
| ahylight | example: i have an encrypted 2.5" external usb hard drive with all this data | 14:58 |
| ahylight | I *could* lose it in front of my house, and anybody could steal it, it would be ok, since no key is available for them | 14:59 |

| Some_Person | It seems like Ubuntu 20.04 keeps automatically adding printers from my network. How can I stop it from doing this? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | I'm sure it's not adding them | 15:48 |
| ikonia | they are advertising themselves | 15:48 |
| Some_Person | They show up in my printers list, and come back immediately if I remove them | 15:48 |
| Some_Person | I only want printers I explicitly add to show up | 15:49 |
| ikonia | probably because they are advertising themselves | 15:49 |
| Some_Person | I basically have 3 copies of the same printer, because I have another machine running CUPS that has it added and also shares it using AirPrint. The third is the printer itself. This is absolutely stupid. | 15:50 |
| Some_Person | I only want my printer to show up once | 15:50 |
| ikonia | then stop the other hosts from advertising it | 15:50 |
| Some_Person | ikonia: If I do that, it'll be impossible to print to it from our mobile devices | 15:50 |

| ikonia | Some_Person: so you want it to advertise itself globally as it's meant to....but tell this one machine to ignore it being advertised | 15:51 |
| Some_Person | ikonia: Pretty much. I want my desktop to not give a crap about advertised printers | 15:51 |
| ikonia | Some_Person: turn off the bonjouf service on your desktop | 15:51 |
| Some_Person | How do I do that? | 15:51 |
| leftyfb | Some_Person: please see the link I just posted | 15:52 |

| maszlo | hello channel. I have an issue that I am unsure when it showed up, possible that was caused from upgrades over the years. The root of the problem is that Apache2 does not properly start on reboot, but will pass config check and start properly once booted. It appears that it is being started from init.d, i dont have a fresh installed 20.04 but wonder if it should be using systemd? | 19:03 |
| chemist^ | sudo systemctl enable apache2.service | 19:05 |
| chemist^ | or sudo systemctl enable apache.service | 19:05 |
| chemist^ | not sure how it's named | 19:05 |
| maszlo | chemist^, is that all need to do to convert from the two, or then delete the /etc/init.d/apache2 ? | 19:06 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, convert what? from what? | 19:07 |
| maszlo | init.d to systemd | 19:07 |
| chemist^ | Does this command give you any output? | 19:07 |
| chemist^ | sudo systemctl status apache | 19:07 |
| chemist^ | apache2.service sorry | 19:08 |
| chemist^ | "sudo systemctl status apache2.service" | 19:08 |
| maszlo | chemist^, should i have it in the error state after a reboot when it fails? | 19:08 |
| chemist^ | I just want to see if systemd finds the service and shows it's status | 19:08 |
| chemist^ | doesn't matter if it's running or not | 19:09 |
| maszlo | yes it does show the status from systemctl | 19:09 |
| chemist^ | then just issue the command: sudo systemctl enable apache2.service | 19:10 |
| chemist^ | and it will be enabled on boot | 19:10 |
| chemist^ | you can reboot afterwards and check again with "sudo systemctl status apache2.service" | 19:10 |
| maszlo | sorry maybe not clear on the issue. | 19:10 |
| chemist^ | you said that when you reboot your machine, apache does not start automatically | 19:11 |
| maszlo | it is attempting to start on reboot, but appears that is not loading in order. like starting before networking and failing | 19:11 |
| chemist^ | that's really strange...have you checked any system logs? | 19:12 |
| chemist^ | or apache logs? | 19:12 |
| maszlo | yeah would say could not bind to port.. but then if i told it to start it just worked | 19:12 |
| maszlo | which is why wondered if cause was from the /etc/init.d/apache2 script | 19:13 |
| === denningsrogue7 is now known as denningsrogue | ||
| maszlo | maybe will move that script out of theser and see if tell it to enable see if it builds the same thing | 19:14 |
| maszlo | chemist^, that appears closer. now on boot it does start, but looks like it is trying to host a http site over https port | 19:25 |
| maszlo | chemist^, the status logs complain that cannot resolve the hostname.. if do a systemctrl restart no errors. still seems like it is loading before networking is up | 19:26 |
| chemist^ | what version of ubuntu are you running? | 19:31 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, | 19:31 |
| maszlo | 20.04 | 19:32 |
| chemist^ | and you use /etc/init.d to run apache? | 19:32 |
| tomreyn | maszlo: /etc/init.d/apache2 does exist there, but you should just ignore it. | 19:32 |
| tomreyn | use systemctl exclusively | 19:32 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, also..."trying to host a http site over https port" doesn't make much sense ... can you pastebin the content of your /sites-enabled/ configs? | 19:34 |
| maszlo | interesting.. i just found the fix by modifying the script from After=network.target to After=network-online.target | 19:34 |
| chemist^ | which script? :D | 19:34 |
| maszlo | the file /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/apache2.service | 19:35 |
| tomreyn | that'll be a symlink to /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service | 19:36 |
| tomreyn | which shouldn't be edited, but a clone of it. | 19:36 |
| maszlo | okay I reverted it. rebooted and can get the ssl error again. SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG it shows that it is https:// but the browser does not show that it is encrypted | 19:39 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, please paste your sites-enabled config file | 19:40 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*.conf | 19:41 |
| maszlo | sure.. one second | 19:41 |
| chemist^ | also...use nginx :D it's simpler to configure and has many features that apache doesn't | 19:41 |
| chemist^ | the config syntax is fairly similar - you would get used to it in no time | 19:42 |
| maszlo | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/6HCmFhx552/ | 19:44 |
| chemist^ | strange config :D | 19:45 |
| tomreyn | do an apache2ctl configtest http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man8/apache2ctl.8.html | 19:49 |
| tomreyn | normally, you'll enable mod_ssl by running a2enmod ssl | 19:50 |
| tomreyn | (that's for openssl support. there's also gnutls, i think) | 19:50 |
| maszlo | the test reports Syntax OK | 19:50 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, what about "a2enmod ssl"? | 19:51 |
| maszlo | it says module ssl already enabled | 19:53 |
| maszlo | i think i need to reboot it to be in the bad state again for this test | 19:53 |
| maszlo | i have already ran systemctrl reload apache2 | 19:54 |
| maszlo | i guess very dirty fix would be a crontab entry to do that @reboot | 19:55 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, this is what one of my old apache configs looks like: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/HgPjbzdbf2/ | 19:55 |
| tomreyn | reload/hup is sufficient to reload the configuration files after you edited them, but not to load new modules | 19:55 |
| chemist^ | you have your fullchain also configured as your certificate....is this correct? | 19:55 |
| tomreyn | thats fine | 19:56 |
| maszlo | hmm so if doing the reload fixes it and not related to the modules itself does that tell anything? | 19:58 |
| maszlo | if you look at that site now can see that is giving error | 19:58 |
| chemist^ | but the error SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG means something is not configured right on your server | 20:00 |
| chemist^ | try modifying your sites-enabled config file following the example I pasted | 20:00 |
| chemist^ | ---> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/HgPjbzdbf2/ | 20:01 |
| maszlo | that is really weird. the fact that it does not do that when change the systemd file to use After=network-online.target and doing systemctrl reload fixes it | 20:01 |
| chemist^ | you're missing also "SSLEngine On" | 20:02 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, magic :D | 20:02 |
| maszlo | chemist^, okay i will make a new sites-avail conf with that as template | 20:03 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, if it's not too much trouble...backup your existing sites-enabled config and try the one I pasted above - change the folders and names accordingly of course and try it out...se if the error persists on your next boot | 20:03 |
| chemist^ | also...all virtualhosts can listen to *:443 | 20:04 |
| chemist^ | Apache will know to which site to forward traffic by the "server name" | 20:04 |
| chemist^ | no need to specify the host it listens on | 20:04 |
| maszlo | perhaps that is the issue with it needing to have networking? /etc/hosts is not loaded yet? | 20:05 |
| chemist^ | Why does your networking load after apache? | 20:06 |
| maszlo | yeah that is where i thought the problem was | 20:06 |
| chemist^ | have you tried my config? :D | 20:06 |
| maszlo | it was worse when was using init.d, then when enabled with systemd it was better with this error | 20:07 |
| maszlo | i didnt get to that yet. sorry, i need to reply to an email first. | 20:07 |
| maszlo | to be clear.. it was only using the init.d script to load, and with that would not even start the apache service because networking was not up. systemd does have it load with just exceptions with cannot resolve the host name. Your config of not specifiying the hostname:443 is probably the root of the issue it is having | 20:09 |
| chemist^ | as I've said | 20:11 |
| chemist^ | You have specified your hostname inside the config. | 20:11 |
| chemist^ | <VirtualHost nc.maszlo.com:443> | 20:11 |
| chemist^ | just change that to VirtualHost *:443 | 20:11 |
| chemist^ | and add the other lines that you're missing compared to my config | 20:11 |
| maszlo | thank you, it will be a couple minutes to make these changes to test. i had to get connected into a vpn that limits my connection to where this computer is | 20:13 |
| chemist^ | if you're using virtualhosts there is no need to specify the hostname on which it listens to | 20:13 |
| chemist^ | Since it gets it from the "server_name" value | 20:13 |
| maszlo | chemist^, i am going to copy your example over to be my example for future. | 20:14 |
| chemist^ | So any connection (*:443) that comes to the port 443 and with the server_name example.domain.com - apache will feed the correct site to the client (as specified in the DocumentRoot value) | 20:15 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, +1 | 20:15 |
| chemist^ | maszlo, let me know once you try my config...if it still fails the same way | 20:16 |
| chemist^ | going AFK for a moment... maszlo please send me a private message when you're done...channel messages don't get saved here ;) | 20:19 |

Then logout and log back in. Open Chrome, there will be a pop up asking you to set a keyring password, leave it blank, confirm, then it shouldn't bother you anymore.

| Blade-Runner | that seems to have stopped it. thankyou thank you | 20:59 |
| Blade-Runner | U.S. lawmakers agree Big Tech has too much power | 20:59 |
| sarnold | guenhael: did you install any gnome extensions? those have a history of being iffy | 21:00 |
| guenhael | no I didn't installed any extension | 21:00 |
| guenhael | I just did a "LAMP" install | 21:02 |
| guenhael | I also set the scale of the screen to 200% (don't know if it could be the cause) | 21:04 |
| sarnold | I heard nvidia had trouble with fractional scaling when 20.04 was released; I don't know if that's fixed yet or not, but intel nuc doesn't feel likely to have nvidia .. probably that's fine | 21:05 |

| Sven_vB | BlueEagle, thanks! | 21:16 |
| BlueEagle | Sven_vB: You're welcome. | 21:16 |
| Sven_vB | BlueEagle, however this only finds "networkd-dispatcher" and "openvpn-systemd-resolved", probably because both of them have "systemd-resolved" in their description. | 21:18 |
| BlueEagle | Sven_vB: You're right. That is my bad. | 21:22 |

| ijohnson | is it considered "normal" that I have intel-microcode installed if my machine has an amd64 processor and has never had an intel processor ? | 21:36 |

| BlueEagle | agile_prg: There is a difference in the way "the real desktop" works in Linux compared to Windows. In windows if you RDP in with -admin you get the console, but there is no real equivalent to this in Linux. The closest you get is an X server running on a given display. | 22:26 |
| agile_prg | hmm... ok | 22:26 |
| BlueEagle | agile_prg: If you just want to run X-applications you can run them on the box you are connecting to and display it on a local X server on the computer you are connecting from, but that will require it to have an X-server and connect with ssh and X-tunneling. If you just want to see a desktop that is completely running on the linux box then an RDP server would be a more sensible way to go. | 22:28 |
| BlueEagle | agile_prg: As bindi suggests, xrdp might be what you are looking for. | 22:28 |
| agile_prg | well there is this new feature that allows you to record a desktop | 22:29 |
| agile_prg | I am trying to use that | 22:29 |
| agile_prg | but do it remotely if you will on an application | 22:29 |
| leftyfb | agile_prg: x11vnc -xkb -noxrecord -noxfixes -noxdamage -display :0 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -usepw | 22:30 |
| leftyfb | agile_prg: you'll need to install x11vnc | 22:30 |
| leftyfb | agile_prg: there's also teamviewer | 22:30 |
| agile_prg | how do I get a screenshot of the current desktop? | 22:31 |
| EriC^ | agile_prg: press prntscrn | 22:31 |
| agile_prg | heh, I am remote | 22:32 |
| luna_ | level up | 22:33 |
| leftyfb | agile_prg: use a screenshot tool on the remote machine | 22:33 |
| guenhael | the firmware is updated, I will see if my problem reappear but lets hope that was the solution. Thank you for your help maszlo | 22:33 |
| leftyfb | agile_prg: I have a gnome extension called "screenshot tool" by oal that works great for me | 22:33 |
| destinydriven | Is deleting the .list file from /etc/apt/sources.list.d same as running the command sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:PPA_REPOSITORY_NAME/PPA. ?? | 22:34 |
| leftyfb | destinydriven: you should use ppa-purge which will also remove/downgrade any packages installed from said ppa | 22:35 |
| destinydriven | Ok thanks | 22:35 |
| destinydriven | I just upgraded server to 20.04 and that's all a big mess | 22:35 |
| leftyfb | destinydriven: upgrading releases requires you to remove ppa's and the packages installed from them. Otherwise, yes, it creates a mess | 22:36 |
| destinydriven | I learnt this the hard way over the weekend | 22:36 |

| sunrunner20 | is there a channel specificically for microk8s? | 22:50 |
| pipegeek | I'm having trouble using smbclient -- no matter what host I point it at, it exits immediately with no error message and an exit code of 1. If I run with -d5, I still see no error --- the last message logged is "Client started (version 4.11.6-Ubuntu)." and then nothing. | 22:52 |
| pipegeek | any idea what might be happening? | 22:52 |
| pipegeek | running ubuntu 20.04. | 22:53 |
| compdoc | pipegeek, if you type smbclient by itself, what version is it? | 22:56 |
| pipegeek | compdoc, 4.11.6-Ubuntu | 22:57 |
| pipegeek | just recently installed. | 22:57 |
| compdoc | same as mine. i can list shares after entering the password | 22:57 |
| pipegeek | It doesn't even prompt me for one. | 22:58 |
| pipegeek | usage: smbclient smb://<host ip>/<share> | 22:58 |
| pipegeek | the host in question is a mac, with file sharing enabled. | 22:58 |
| pipegeek | behavior: the client exits immediately with no error message. | 22:59 |
| pipegeek | ah. I'm a goof. smb://ip/share didn't work. \\\\ip\\share did. | 23:01 |
| compdoc | smbclient \\\\zimmerman\\public mypasswd | 23:03 |
| compdoc | that works for me | 23:03 |
| pipegeek | yeah. Now getting the behavior I expect, except that I'm getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE (which is what I was I think seeing from nautilus). Not sure why that's happening, unless there's some quirk in how macos does smb | 23:05 |
| pipegeek | but at least the mystery is solved, haha | 23:05 |
| pipegeek | aha! now that's solved as well | 23:06 |
| pipegeek | thanks, sorry for the noise. | 23:06 |
