ExeciNHi people. I'm trying to install ubuntu server 22.04 on a vps but something goes wrong with the installer right after I confirm the ssh keys fetched from my github account and I get prompted to report this to canonical. Is there a workaround besides moving on without imported keys?07:14
murmelExeciN: it's probably better to ask in #ubuntu-server07:15
ExeciNI mean I can set up key authentication later but doing it through vnc is a PitA. I have to somehow aquire the keys (I can maybe post each one on termbin), create/populate .ssh/authorized_keys, change permissions for .ssh and authorized_keys, modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config, reload sshd07:15
ExeciNmurmel: ok07:15

masberhi, so I have ubuntu running in my laptop. Virtualbox told me there is a new update so I downloaded the deb package, now I am trying to install it and the Ubuntu Store pops up asking me to remove the package?09:22
masberwhy?09:23
ravagemasber, open a terminal. go to the download directory and run "sudo apt install ./your-vbox-update.deb"09:24
ravagein general Ubuntu comes with it's own tools like virt-manager to manage VMs. maybe give that one a try09:25
toddcmasber: there are two versions one from the ubuntu repos you are using the one from Oracle which is a newer un-tested version so yes remove and install or wait for the repo vesion09:31

BayouBillyjeofpanic are you going to use that free mariadb or the apache nonsql database14:08
BayouBillyjerofpanic i once did some database stuff for an auction server that everyone could use but i got tired of messing with it14:10

VIAhey quick question14:42
VIAcan i ~generally find out what my Computer (linux) was UPTo at arount a curente point in time? ( like backwards 2 weeks ~)?14:42
user9dsure14:43
lubuntuYou can use atop -r to find out14:43
user9dVIA: go into /var/log and go:    find -type f -ls    #look at the dates, and find ones that are old14:44
lubuntuIf you just want to make sure your computer was running and for how long, enter "uptime"14:47

AirwolfGreetings. Just installed Ubuntu server 22.04.1, is working ok, but getting a message uon login regarding Failed to connect to https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts. Anyone know if that's on their end?15:29
VIAjhutchins: how to i save/get the data ?15:32
VIAoh ic user9d described smthn15:32
VIAty15:33
VIA<315:35
ioriaAirwolf, do you have this file ? /var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available15:44
Airwolfioria, yes, I do15:45
ioriaAirwolf, is it empty ?15:46
AirwolfIt contains the error I get when logging in15:47
ioriaAirwolf, so, copy it to release-upgrade-available.back and then  sudo truncate -s 0  release-upgrade-available , and login again15:48
AirwolfOk, fixed.. A glitch?15:51
iorianope, and old bug i guess15:52
AirwolfLikely to reoccur, then. I did see a few search results several years old when trying to google it15:53
ioriayep15:53
AirwolfThanks15:53
AirwolfMaybe I'll just disable that part of the motd.15:54
ioriano prob, basically,that file it's not cleared15:54
AirwolfThanks, I don't like errors on a new system.15:54
ioriayeah15:55
user9derrors on a new system is scary because there is a 3% chance you have to return the hardware and get something else15:56
user9dlike for example I go to Best Buy to get the newest Mac OSX Apple laptop [to put Xubuntu 22.04 on it] only to find that the LiveUSB that I burned with unetbootin is 0% booting.15:58
AirwolfNot something I want to do, as the reason for this rebuild is a power supply that went bad and took the motherboard/cpu and 3 hard drives with it.15:58
user9dawww I'm sorry Airwolf15:59
ioriaanti-surge disabled ?15:59
user9dall of the anti-surge protection must've fried as well.16:00
ioriawow16:01
AirwolfAnyway.. I have a good handle on how ipv4 works, but not so much with ipv6. Since I don't understand it, I can't firewall it, so I've just been disabling it system wide on prior builds. Are there any good sites that explain how ipv6 works, and how to firewall it with ufw/iptables?16:01
AirwolfI've got this connected to an APC UPS, so I don't think it was an external spike.. I think the power supply itself died, and sent a voltage spike to the board, drives, everything16:02
ioria#netfilter might help you , i guess Airwolf16:03
AirwolfHmmm.. didn't know there was a channel for it.16:03
AirwolfGuess I'll leave ipv6 disabled till I have time to learn it so I can firewall it16:12
AirwolfThanks for the help16:12
SoCkEt7bash16:18
tomreynSoCkEt7: what do you mean?16:19
ograno bashing in here ! ๐Ÿ™‚16:20
ogra(except bashing-om indeed)16:20
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: hi, glad you made it here from #ubuntustudio. so i understand that you have a Lenovo AIO 520-27ICB with this NVME SSD installed https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/libera.chat/174d562104ae92ca49f5c0a56bbf3f339bc6a05d as well as a HDD which you installed ubuntustudio on. but you are saying your computer does not recognize the NVME SSD. is this correct?16:22
tomreynif that's so, then i wonder how you created this "lspci" output, though, since this shows that linux did detect the nvme ssd.16:24
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: so, in order to finish my ideea, the strange/funny fact is that once i realised that no linux distro will 'see' the SSD drive, i tried reinstallind Windows only to have the big surprise that couldn't do that. The setup installer returned an info right from the start that windows cannot be installed because of some drivers missing.  There was no info regarding of what driver specifically is missing.16:24
tomreyni see. that's a good additional piece of information to have, but i'm afraid we can only help with ubuntu and its official flavors (such as ubuntustudio) here.16:26
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: if you could respond to the "lspci" question above, this may help us further. it would also be good to know whether you can still boot ubuntustudio on it and still get this output from lspci now.16:27
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: i have the same unclarity. I dont know how and why the ssd appears in sistem monitor / PCI16:27
jhutchinscojmeliegrigore[: Does it show up in the BIOS/EFI?16:28
cojmeliegrigore[Ubuntu studio is the only OS i'm using on this pc16:28
cojmeliegrigore[yes, the SSD shows in BIOS16:28
tomreyni'm guessing that it just has no partition table on it16:28
tomreynand thus you assume that ubuntustudio does "not detect" it (when lspci clearly shows it does detect it)16:29
ogracat /proc/partitions | grep nvme16:29
ograshould show if there are any16:29
ogra... hmm or you could save the cat and just do "grep nvme /proc/partitions" ...16:30
geniitomreyn: Possibly the device is seen but unclaimed by a driver16:30
ograthen it would not show up16:31
tomreyngenii: yes, this could be16:31
tomreyni guess we'll need more info from cojmeliegrigore[ either way.16:31
cojmeliegrigore[please, tell me how to proceed. This situation is busting my brains out for the last month. and i will be honest, i don't have yet enough info, but i'm eager to learn.16:34
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: suggestions were already provided above. does it help to repeat those?16:37
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: ogra suggested that you (open a terminal window and) run this command: grep nvme /proc/partitions16:38
tomreyn...and then tell us what the output is16:38
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: if you refer to suggestions posted by ogra , the commands do not return any result16:39
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: okay, that's valuable information.16:39
ograyeah, looks like there is definitely no partition table16:39
ogrado you have a /dev/nvme0 device ?16:40
ogra(and a /dev/nvme0n1 perhaps ?)16:40
tomreynyou can use the     ls /dev/nvme0*     command to find out16:41
ograyeah16:41
cojmeliegrigore[ls cannot acces /dev/nvme0*. no such file or directory16:42
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: would you also be okay with sharing your system log from when ubuntustudio started up? this log can contain unique hardware identifiers.16:42
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: you can use this command to share the most relevant part of your log:   journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 999916:43
tomreynit will print a http address you can post here16:43
cojmeliegrigore[honestly i have no privacy issues and nothing to hide16:43
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: should I only run the command ?16:46
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: you should run the comand and post here the http address it returns.16:46
cojmeliegrigore[or there is anyhting else to do, because i have ran the command and it has no output16:47
ograit should return a url16:47
cojmeliegrigore[it doesnt't return anything16:47
tomreynis this computer online, though?16:47
ogra(and then return you to the input prompt)16:47
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: what do you mean if is the computer online ?16:48
cojmeliegrigore[i'm typing from this pcv16:48
cojmeliegrigore[pc*16:48
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: whether it is connected to a network which lets it access the internet.16:48
tomreynokay, then it is16:48
tomreynlet's try this as a test:   echo HELLO | nc termbin.com 999916:48
tomreyndoes this one return a http address?16:49
tomreynby "return" i mean, does it print it, on the terminal window you're running it on?16:49
cojmeliegrigore[yes, i know what 'return' stands for16:50
cojmeliegrigore[i'm not that well informed, not an idiot16:50
cojmeliegrigore[and yes16:50
user9dcool then we're clear. crystal.16:51
cojmeliegrigore[the last command returns this : https://termbin.com/tydc16:51
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: sorry, i don't mean to suggest you are an idiot, just making sure i explained myself well enough. ;)16:51
enigma9o7[m]journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 999916:52
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: great, this worked! if you access this in your web browser you will see the "HELLO" got posted online16:52
tomreynso the command enigma9o7[m] just posted again should really also post a http address16:52
tomreynerr print16:52
cojmeliegrigore[yes when I acces browser it shows " HELLO16:53
tomreynthen let's try again:    journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 999916:54
cojmeliegrigore[nope16:55
cojmeliegrigore[the same, no return16:55
tomreynwhat does this print?    lsb_release -ds16:56
cojmeliegrigore[tomreyn: lsb_release -ds returns Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS16:58
tomreynoh so you install Ubuntu and not UbuntuStudio, i see16:58
Eickmeyer[m]tomreyn: lsb_release always returns Ubuntu because all flavors return Ubuntu.16:59
Eickmeyer[m]Hence, all flavors are not their own distrol.16:59
Eickmeyer[m]s/all/official17:00
tomreynoh, i was thinking they would differ, thanks Eickmeyer[m]17:00
jhutchinsUbuntu Studio is Ubuntu with selected packages, it doesn't operate any differently.17:01
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: Still, the earlier command should have worked. Maybe it it too slow. Lets try this instead:     journalctl -b >/tmp/journal 2>&1; cat /tmp/journal | nc termbin.com 9999 || echo error17:01

funhousejhutchins that sounds like something thats straight out of art of war or something17:04
funhousejhutchins id rather not create an image and extend it like right now tho17:04
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: can you take a screenshot and upload it at imgur.com please?17:05
tomreynjhutchins: irf the previous command returned a non zero exit code, the part behind double pipes is executes. it's like a logical OR17:06
jhutchinsfunhouse: There may be ways to cheat on this, but you really need to repartition your drive using GPT instead of FAT.  Messing with partitons you have a chance of saving/recovering the data, but it's a lot easier to just reformat and restore.17:07
enigma9o7[m]funhouse, you can mbr2gpt before17:07
jhutchinstomreyn: Oh, or-or.17:07
funhousejhutchins ok17:07
jhutchinsI was thinking of it as a pipe.17:07

tomreynkushalkumaran: i think termbin has a 1000 line limit, but i'd rather bet on network issues with the command not working, or a slow computer causing it to close the socket before the content got uploaded.17:33

Guest80Hey17:41
tomreynhi Guest80, got an ubuntu support question?17:41
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: i see you tried to boot this computer with a special linux parameter, nvme.core.default_ps_max_latency_us=5500, probably in an attempt to make the NVME work?17:42
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: did you edit /etc/default/grub to make this work?17:43
funhousetomreyn thank you17:44
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: if so, edit it again and make sure there is a blank space (" ") in front of the "nvme....", and then run sudo update-grub17:45
cojmeliegrigore[yes i have tried to boot with 'nvme.core.default_ps_max_latency_us=5500'. i found this help on some site, i dont even remember where. I have searched on too many places17:45
tomreynit's a good suggestion. but you made a little mistake there so it did not actually apply.17:45
cojmeliegrigore[o i do not remember if i edited the '/etc/default/grub'17:45
Guest80@tomreyn How do I know which version of GRUB is being used by Ubuntu 22 (without installing it) ?17:46
tomreyn!info grub2 jammy17:46

tomreynGuest80: ^ this is one way. or you could search on https://packages.ubuntu.com17:47
tomreynGuest80: or, on a 22.04 system, you could run:  apt policy grub217:47
Guest80Thanks17:49
Guest80According to this:17:49
Guest80https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/grub217:49
Guest80Its says "dummy package"17:49
Guest80What does it mean ?17:49
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: so i suggest you edit it now, and add     nvme.core.default_ps_max_latency_us=5500     within in the quotation marks on the    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT   line. make sure there is both a blank space (" ") before and after this option. and then run    sudo update-grub    and reboot17:50
tomreynGuest80: that i'm a dummy and i picked the wrong package17:51
tomreynGuest80: it really means that grub2 used to exist as a package and is just a placegolder / reference to the actual package now, which is grub-pc17:51

tomreynwhen did it stop working exactly? was that what primpted you to install ubuntu and other operating systems, or was it the other way around?19:05
jhutchinsWhat about manually supplying a correct boot command line?  (maybe escape the space?)19:06
cojmeliegrigore[yes, in the first instance i didn't removed completely windows. i ran windows from the ssd and ubuntu on hdd. the ssd was visible in ubuntu too. somehow i do not really remember how i removed completely windows19:06
jhutchinsHave we already tried that?19:06
cojmeliegrigore[and after that moment the ssd vanished19:06
tomreynjhutchins: replacing the installed grub solved the issue of the system booting with the wrong grub.cfg, this is no longer an issue.19:07
jhutchinsAch, sorry, not following closely enough.19:07
tomreynno worries19:08
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: so i think it would be good to update the firmware on it, if you can get it to do so.19:09
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: this may make it loose any data, though, if that matters19:09
jhutchinsI suppose we could try installing a stock kernel and see if that made a difference.19:09
tomreynit's a stock kernel19:09
cojmeliegrigore[if u refer to the data on the ssd, i have no hope to recover anything19:10
jhutchinsIt seems to be a low-latency kernel, or did I miss that too?19:10
tomreynyes, it's ubuntu's stock low-latency kernel ;)19:10
jhutchinscojmeliegrigore[: Any time you're messing with disk structures, you run the risk of an error, even just a human "oops", so backups are in order.19:11
jhutchinsWell, y'know, try high-latency.  Turn it off and back on again.19:11
jhutchinsNot seeing a drive would seem to be a kernel-level problem.19:12
cojmeliegrigore[regarding the firmware update, i think i already read about this option and tried but i didnt succed. i have tried to dowload updated firmware from manufacturer's site19:12
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: so one possibility is that the nvme has just died. that's why i was asking about the series of events. maybe you noticed the nvme no longer worked, and in an attempt to make it work again, you started installing different operating systems. if this is what happened, i would assume the nvme may just be dead.19:12
cojmeliegrigore[and it is only available for windows19:13
cojmeliegrigore[another option io haven't tried19:13

tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: so the nvme no longer times out during initialization now, but it still does present several errors19:21
tomreyncojmeliegrigore[: my guess is that it's really just dead, but i am not really familiar enough with nvme's to help you diagnose this properly.19:21

FlorianBadWhen I change the sshd port, it's not enough to handle firewalling with my own iptables boot scripts? I've just read there is something called "ufw"? Could that prevent my new port from working after boot despite my iptables scripts?20:53
murmelFlorianBad: by default ufw is disabled, so very unlikely (except you enabled it)20:56
FlorianBadsystemctl status ufwย  :ย  Active: active (exited) since Thu 2022-09-01 20:46:14 UTC; 9min ago20:56
FlorianBad(did not enable it)20:56
murmelFlorianBad: "sudo ufw status verbose"20:57
FlorianBadSorry got stuck out of the server after silly mistake. Will re-install it and check that soon.20:58
rob0You can indeed open and close ports in a firewall, the "old fashioned" way.20:58
FlorianBadSo if I understand correctly, ufw is something that calls iptables at boot? Then it's gone?20:58
rob0But ufw rules could conflict with your rules.20:59
rob0ufw uses nft, not iptables20:59
oerheksno, ufw uses iptables.20:59
FlorianBadok. So if I just do apt-get remove ufw I should be good to handle everything iwth my own scripts?20:59
oerheks!ufw20:59
ubottuUbuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo20:59
murmelFlorianBad: no ufw is a firewall interface, which interacts with nftables (or iptables on older releases)20:59
rob0By default iptables-nft(8) is translating iptables rules to nft.20:59
FlorianBadIf I do `apt-get remove -y ufw` after install of the server, then nothing else will interfere with my iptables scripts?21:01
rob0The move to iptables-nft by default took place some time after 18.04 and before 20.04. It's definitely nft in 20.04 and beyond. (Can be changed with update-alternatives(8).)21:01
murmelFlorianBad: the command I gave you should tell you that ufw is disabled, which means it doesn't block anything. so it shouldn't interfere21:03
FlorianBadok, but there's no better way to disable it for good with an apt-get remove ;)21:05
ograit *is* disabled21:06
ograunless you explicitly enabled it with the correct commands21:06
murmelFlorianBad: if you mean the service, just disable it (or even mask)21:06
murmelbut you can remove it also21:06
ograby design it is set up so that users can set up their wn iptables rules21:06
ogra*own21:06
rob0FlorianBad: you could have iptables/ip6tables or nftables services enabled, which could also interfere with your scripts.21:06
rob0BTW I also would recommend against such scripts. It's better to use the iptables or nftables service to restore rules at boot time.21:07
FlorianBadmurmel: you're right! It is disabled:ย  ย Command 'ufw' not found, but can be installed with:ย  ย  ย :)21:08
murmelFlorianBad: wait, ufw is installed by default21:08
murmelso, are you using an image from a hoster?21:09
FlorianBadmurmel: I know but afer our conversation I added the apt-get remove to my install scripts so I could then execute the command you gave me ;)21:09
murmelahh k21:09
FlorianBadbut hey, since that apt-get is the only thing I changed in my script we'll know if that was in fact enabled. If it works it was.21:09
murmelFlorianBad: as me and also ogra said, ufw.service is enabled, but the firewall itself is disabled21:10
FlorianBadmurmel: I'm using Vultr right now with a script that copies everything via ssh and then does thing on that server before rebooting. It always worked with other distros but I just switched to Ubuntu so I now need to adapt a few things to make it work. Firewall conflicts are part of these things21:11
ograyu need to explicitly enable the ufw tool with the correct ufw commands ... that the no-op service ran says nothing about the status21:11
FlorianBadI strongly suspect that Vultr would have a custom version of Ubuntu where ufw is enabled by default21:12
murmelidk, as i never used vultr21:12
ograwe'll never know ... since you removed it before checking ๐Ÿ™‚21:12
FlorianBadnope, we will know 2 ways:ย  1. If it works, since the apt-get remove is the only thing I've done...ย  ย 2. I just found a ton of ufw-* rules in iptables -L INPUT21:14
FlorianBadso yes it was enabled21:14
ograodd ...21:18
ogra(given the package has everything explicitly disabled by default)21:18
FlorianBadVultr must tweak the Ubuntu images21:18
ograat that point i personally would look for anoter provider ... who knoesws what else they modify21:19
FlorianBadyeah...21:19
murmelI love always to use an actual installer iso. yes it takes longer to get running. but I know, its all default21:19
murmelor you can upload your own image21:19
ogra(vultr would theoretically not be allowed to call it ubuntu anymore ... modified images must be called "ubuntu remix" ... they might get mail from canonical ๐Ÿ™‚)21:19
FlorianBadI don't want to advertise Vultr, just to make that clear. Had many issues with them, one of them being to TERMINATE a live server just because they estimated it used to much CPU! madness21:20
FlorianBadAll right, that did it. I could now reboot and connect correctly;) ย Thanks!21:20

sal-monHello, I'm having a very strange issue right now, I turned off my pc (Ubuntu 22.04) and booted it the next morning, but it gave me this error: [End Kernel Panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt] . So I flashed boot-repair (64 bit) on a usb drive and after numerous workarounds, it's stuck for a long time after this: Running23:53
sal-mon/scripts/nfs-premount ... done. What can I do now?23:53
sarnoldmaybe try the recovery boot options in grub? try holding down shift when booting, and select either a previous kernel, or the recovery mode for one of the various kernels23:54
sal-monIt's still throwing the same error23:54
sal-monsometimes it returns this: kernel panic not syncing attempted to kill init23:55
sal-monbut sometimes23:55
arraybolt3[m]sal-mon: Can you still boot a usual Ubuntu 22.04 live USB?23:57
sal-monIt also throws an error of the same variety, I'll boot it again so I can write down the error23:57
arraybolt3[m]And... what did you do to your computer? Did you drop it, sit on it, etc.? This sounds like the hardware is throwing a fit to me, especially if a live USB acts the same way.23:58
sal-monThing is, I don't know, nothing out of the ordinary happened, I thought so too, so I got a RAM stick and it's still panicking23:59
