[00:17] <tomreyn> DArqueBishop: according to a web search, mariadb considers "Could not increase number of max_open_files to more than ..." a *warning*, not an error, which may suggest that there has been another, more serious, error, causing mariadb to fail to start (which may or may not have been reported).
[00:21] <tomreyn> i.e. from what i read online, mariadb would still start up nevertheless, so that you could inspect mysql variables, e.g.  SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'open_files_limit';
[00:22] <tomreyn> open_files_limit, max_connections and table_open_cache would affect the # of file handles needed
[00:23] <tomreyn> also inspect the values of the CapabilityBoundingSet in the systemd service file
[01:29] <DArqueBishop> tomreyn: well, believe it or not, doing some further checking revealed the answer was indeed, "Bishop needs caffeine because he missed something important".
[01:30] <DArqueBishop> I ran out of disk space on the root filesystem!
[01:30]  * DArqueBishop facepalms.
[01:31] <tomreyn> don't let the coffeine suuply chain fail!
[01:39] <DArqueBishop> For some reason the installation only used 30 GB of the 60 GB virtual disk I created, which is why I never suspected what happened.
[01:40] <sarnold> DArqueBishop: ohhhhh man. I hate that. *nothing* reports that error well :(
[01:40] <DArqueBishop> Now that I've actually resized the root filesystem, maybe it'll actually work this time. :-p
[01:59] <DArqueBishop> Yep, that was definitely it. Thank you!
[06:50] <kinghat> my docker-ce package is being kept back as an upgrade package. still on ubuntu 18, does that have anything to do with it?
[06:51] <kinghat> maybe its leftover from when they changed from ee and ce?
[07:27] <lordievader> Good morning
[07:32] <Nap> I'm having a bit of an issue with jailed users whereby their username shows as "I have no name!" and directory ownerships are showing as uid gid.  Both /etc/passwd and jailed passwd are fine.  What else can affect the look-up?
[09:58] <Guillaume____> hi
[10:00] <Guillaume____> i'm having an issue with my Ubuntu server. Quite some time ago i wanted to be able to launch an x session when i want on my tv (where my ubuntu server is plugged) so i installed mate and i start it with lightdm
[10:00] <Guillaume____> but i think i have rights issues
[10:00] <Guillaume____> i have to start many stuff in sudo where i shouldn't have to
[10:00] <Guillaume____> do you know how i can check and fix this ?
[10:04] <lordievader> Install a login manager (like gdm/sddm/etc) and login as a regular user?
[10:04] <Guillaume____> i have lightdm
[10:04] <Guillaume____> i can log
[10:05] <Guillaume____> and i have x but i noticed that i have to sudo for everything, my rights doesn't see to be good
[10:05] <Guillaume____> i launch mate with lightdm
[10:10] <Guillaume____> like i need to sudo vainfo in order for it to work
[10:10] <Guillaume____> other wise i get XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in environment
[10:13] <Guillaume____> systemctl --user enable pulseaudio i get a failed to enable unit: process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
[10:17] <Guillaume____> guess it has to do with xauthority or something like this ?
[10:27] <Guillaume____> also i get a unable to create directory '/.cache/dconf' permission denied so i think this is linked
[10:30] <lordievader> I'd suppose lightdm or mate should set the XDG_RUNTIME_ENV, does it log anything about it?
[10:36] <Guillaume____> hm i don't kno
[10:36] <Guillaume____> w
[10:36] <avu> you might just be missing some groups
[10:37] <Guillaume____> i tried adding myselv to the video group
[10:37] <avu> desktop users are in a bunch of groups by default, like `audio`
[10:37] <avu> I have no desktop Ubuntu handy so I can't look up which groupd exactly right now but maybe somebody else here can
[10:37] <Guillaume____> what about the dconf error in the .cache ?
[10:38] <avu> permission errors sound exactly like possibly missing groups
[10:40] <Guillaume____> yes
[10:40] <Guillaume____> so i'm in /etc/group right now, shall i be in root group ?
[10:41] <avu> again, ask somebody with a "proper" Ubuntu desktop installation to see what groups their user ist in
[10:42] <avu> randomly adding groups could of course also work out but will probably leave you in more groups than you should be in
[10:43] <Guillaume____> ok thank you !
[10:46] <Guillaume____> https://serverfault.com/questions/11488/default-groups-assigned-to-the-first-user-in-ubuntu-server-8-04
[10:46] <Guillaume____> this was exactly it !
[10:46] <Guillaume____> thanks a lot
[11:27] <thegodsquirrel> Hello
[11:28] <thegodsquirrel> Any clue if Ubuntu plans to push the openssl update (1.1.1i) to the 16.04 repos?
[11:33] <andol> thegodsquirrel: Sounds very unlikely, given that the current version is 1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.18, and that Ubuntu 16.04 soon will be EOL.
[11:33] <thegodsquirrel> Yeah, but not until April 2021 and I figured since it was a critical patch they might
[11:34] <andol> thegodsquirrel: Any particular CVE not covered by https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.18?
[11:34] <thegodsquirrel> andol Thanks.  I would venture to guess there are a boatload of 16.04 web servers running ATM
[11:39] <thegodsquirrel> andol: I guess not.  I just verified that I have that version.  It must have either slipped in as a security update or I missed it when I updated manually.
[11:40] <thegodsquirrel> Andol: The article I read urged an upgrade to 1.1.1i to fix.  Thanks for the help
[11:43] <andol> No problem!
