[00:00] its a setting issue... [00:00] dust: If you know that, why are you asking here? [00:01] jhutchins, because the infos dont give a full solution but are just bits and pieces... [00:02] and its third party with a lot of problems... [00:03] and just changes at a running system dosnt mean it works after a reboot... [00:03] and so on... [00:21] 123 [00:50] i keep running into errors when trying to install snaps on Ubuntu on WSL... [00:50] user@XOTICPC:/tmp$ sudo snap install --beta --devmode anbox [00:50] error: cannot perform the following tasks: [00:50] - Run install hook of "anbox" snap if present (run hook "install": cannot perform operation: mount --rbind /dev /tmp/snap.rootfs_u0fe3W//dev: No such file or directory) [00:51] Ringtailed_Fox: Is systemd enabled? [00:51] snapd requires systemd, I believe. [00:51] yes, it's enabled [00:51] it seems to install other snaps just fine [00:52] Hmm... there's no /dev directory looks like. [00:52] Is /dev supposed to exist in WSL? [00:52] If not, this may just be a WSL limitation. [00:53] sadly enough, wsl is a weird child of being something like a vm, but not 100%, so it does stuff differently. (that's the reason why systemd wasn't enabled by default, as they had to adjust it) [00:53] The dual path separator "//" looks suspicious to me. [00:54] should another path element have been there? [00:56] Ringtailed_Fox: If you can run something like virtualbox to host an actual VM you'll probably have better results. [00:57] was already brought up yesterday ;) [00:58] Maybe we need a new acronym: "WSL Is Not an Emulator". [00:59] or just WSL Is Garbage [00:59] it rolls right off the tongue [00:59] well, i like to test stuff on WSL before i put it on a production machine [00:59] it's nice for devwork, but everything else, vms and containers exist ;) [01:00] wsl has been useful to me, despite a few bugs, to have a full GNU/Linux command line available for very little extra effort. [01:01] exactly [01:02] rob0: definitely, I assume that they try to get everything working, minus the custom kernel (as you get that through windows update) [01:04] hm? [01:07] ooh, okay. so i purged it form my system with apt purge and now it seems to install snaps again [01:08] what did you purge? [01:08] snapd [01:08] then re-installed it and it seems tow ork [01:08] *work [01:14] okay [01:14] i did not expect it to be that easy [02:12] anyone on? [02:13] dragon_: sure [02:15] 1063 nicks.

[15:51] codedmart: dnsmasq does not forward URLs :) [15:52] mjt0k Right maybe I didn't explain that right. [15:53] the explanation is clear, but the initial question is somewhat funny [15:53] and nope, I don't know a way in dnsmasq to return address of the host which made the query in the dns request [15:53] codedmart: man dnsmasq, read --interface-name [15:54] Ah nevermind you want the client IP [15:54] alkisg: this is dnsmasq's interface name, not the client address [15:54] yeah [15:55] dragon_: Is there a power manager setting tool?

[17:20] hey [17:20] I'm trying to install an old 2017 version of mssql on my Xubuntu 22.04, and I'm getting this: mssql-server : Depends: python (>= 2.7.0) but it is not installable [17:20] geosmile: at which point does it freeze there? [17:21] I already have all of python2 and python2-dev installed. If I had to guess, it's trying to assume my python2 can be found under the python name (without a number). How do I fix this? [17:21] amcsi__: you don't install random packages and expect them to be compatible, though [17:22] geosmile: How long have you waited for it to un-freeze? Can you connect from another computer? Can you access a console? What happens if you reboot to non-graphical mode? [17:24] I need to try though [17:24] amcsi__: Why do you need the older MySQL? Maybe there's a work-around with a current version. [17:24] mssql aka. sql server [17:25] to match what's used on production [17:25] production probably uses a different ubuntu version, too? [17:25] amcsi__: What's the production OS/Version? [17:25] it uses Windows probably. but I still want to match the SQL Server version [17:26] so I wouldn't use features locally that won't work on production [17:27] How do I kono what is the version of my zoom. .. do I have version 5.8.0 or older becuase tho it says Ubuntu is in Citrix/VMware/AVD plugin: /etc/zoomvdi/ZoomMedia.ini -- that file or anything similar does not exist.((crying into the darkness... whatever they did for screenshot in 22.04 is horrible. Horrible. it shows up when I dont want it and it is difficult to find and wont go into the dock.) [17:28] tomreyn, jhutchins Syncing filesystems and block devices timed out - that is where it hangs while shutting down [17:28] amcsi__: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-release-notes-2017?view=sql-server-ver16 lists supported platforms [17:28] that was unwittingly two comments combined. my bad [17:28] so what should I try to run to be able to advance with the mssql-installer? [17:28] blocked for more than 120 seconds [17:29] I get that it's unsupported, but I still want to install it [17:29] amcsi__, find out the Ubuntu version that is compatible with it and run it in a VM/container [17:29] I got it to install last time on Ubuntu 20.04 which also wasn"t supported [17:29] I could run it in a container, but running it natively is much faster [17:29] morgan-u2: snap info zoom-client [17:30] what's snap anyway? [17:30] geosmile: you previously wrote that your system "freezes after a reboot", now you're saying it "hangs while shutting down". which one is it? [17:31] amcsi__: did you read the page i pointed you to? [17:32] tomreyn, previouly i just saw the ubuntu logo - so i thought it freezes at reboot - but the reboot had not gone through - looks like the shutdown hangs [17:33] were are the new monitor settings for lubuntu 22.10? I can not find the dormant interval setting? [17:33] daft upgrades [17:33] simplify my question. what is the grep command to search for the ZoomMedia.ini everywhere ? [17:33] morgan-u2: if it's installed as a debian package: apt list --installed *zoom* if it's installed as a snap: snap list | grep -i zoom [17:34] I have it installed. That is an answer to a different question. It works find. I want to edit that file. [17:34] morgan-u2: this answer was in response to your first question, not the latter one [17:34] I must have expressed the question badly the first time. I need to edit that file. [17:34] morgan-u2: you originally asked which version you have installed, these commands would show. [17:34] And I cant find it [17:34] amcsi__: this mssql package should be installable on any current ubuntu/debian system, *provided* you have two extra libraries from older releases: libjemalloc1 and libssl1.0.0 [17:35] morgan-u2: find out how it was installed first [17:35] !bootlog | geosmile: this will also help with debugging the shutdown [17:35] geosmile: this will also help with debugging the shutdown: To get a more verbose log of the boot process, remove "quiet" and "splash" from the kernel boot parameters and add "debug systemd.log_level=info". For info on editing kernel boot parameters, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters [17:36] tomreyn, IThat was the meaning of my first question. Meanwhile I tried all the paths for all the versions of zoom they mentioned and the directory/ies mentioned for any of the versions did not exist. [17:37] morgan-u2: i see. did you already find out how you installed this application? [17:37] ThtomrI am expressing this as an Ubuntu questio but my goal is to edit this zoom configuration file (https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/4414459007757-Enabling-Smart-Virtual-Backgrounds-for-Linux#h_01FN6YZ681TY3K25AP281V8Y2T\ [17:38] morgan-u2: I think you're buried way too deep in third-party subsystems for us to be able to help you there. [17:38] tomreyn, what makes you think I didn't read it? [17:38] I'm currently facing a problem and am not able to run synaptic. Something called PolicyKit is preventing the program from running. I do not care about PolicyKit and I would like to remove synaptic from its list of managed programs. Is this possible? [17:38] !zoom [17:38] Worthless bot. [17:38] tomreyn, jhutchins https://paste.pics/92d87743fcadf35656b4128edb9840a5 - this is how my machine hangs while shutting down [17:38] amcsi_: well, it clearly states which ubuntu versions it is compatible to. so you culd just install one of those. [17:39] tomreyn, and did you read what I wrote in response to that? [17:39] amcsi__: yes [17:39] amcsi_: yes [17:40] amcsi: yes [17:40] can you limit yourself to one or two client, please [17:40] https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_amd64.deb [17:41] I am using one client. something just got messed up and I somehow needed to re-login [17:42] amcsi_: well, you have three active client connections to network and joined to this irc channel. maybe something to sort out later. [17:42] tomreyn, so then we've established that I acknowledge that the version I want to install is unsupported, but I would like to try and install it anyway, since I was already able to install the same version on one older LTS ubuntu that was also unsupported. And I'm looking for help with that [17:42] I'm currently facing a problem and am not able to run synaptic. Something called PolicyKit is preventing the program from running. I do not care about PolicyKit and I would like to remove synaptic from its list of managed programs. Is this possible? [17:43] jhutchins, have long wondered how to find a filename using grep and looking everywhere in the filesystem. You are correct which is why I cnanged the question to How do I find ta by using grep to "look everwhere". Thank you. [17:43] amcsi_: you're welcome to keep looking for support with this here, i'm just saying you'll have a much easier life if you just install the software on an ubuntu release it is meant to be used on. === diskin is now known as Guest5561 === diskin_ is now known as diskin [17:44] tomreyn, any ideas on this ? https://paste.pics/92d87743fcadf35656b4128edb9840a5 [17:45] Guest69: policykit is how synaptic gains the ability to run commands as root, which it needs to do. you probably don't want to get rid of it. [17:46] tomreyn: Currently policykit is only preventing synaptic from running at all. I just need to run the program, so I need to disable policykits management of it. [17:46] Is there a list of programs managed by policykit or some way of removing synaptic from its control? [17:47] is there a way to do zfs rollback in the foreground? Looks like this command runs things in the background? [17:47] geosmile: hmm, no, not really. i guess what may be the root cause is that /var/log fails to unmount, and if you can solve that you may be able to solve the issue where the final sync fails, too. [17:47] tomreyn, so would you please help me figure out how I can satisfy the installer which expects python 2.7 to be installed? cause I do have it installed [17:47] geosmile: this was in response to "any ideas on this" [17:48] amcsi_: sorry, not i. [17:48] ok [17:49] amcsi_: if you need help with trying to install mssql on 18.04 LTS, i will try to help (if around) [17:50] and as mentioned before that should really not be a big deal with LXD for example [17:50] no thank you. I don't want to go to an old Ubuntu version just for one package [17:50] there is almost no performance impact there at all [17:50] tomreyn, Thanks. This hang only happens after i do a "zfs rollback -rR ..." - perhaps there is a way to wait before reboot on that command? [17:51] geosmile: that's indeed information you should have provided initially. i am not familiar enough with zfs to help with this, though. [17:51] a rollback on a filesystem in use sounds like a very bad idea [17:52] like the kind of idea that makes your system crash [17:52] ravage, ZFS was designed for that [17:52] no [17:53] ZFS may me able to perform that operation but your system is not made for that [17:53] ravage, explain === wolfdale835 is now known as wolfdale83 [17:54] tomreyn, https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/378678/why-do-i-get-the-error-failed-unmounting-var-during-shutdown - could it be this? [17:54] i think "do not rollback a mounted filesystem" was clear [17:54] geosmile: ^ [17:54] ravage, there is a "-f" in rollback that unmounts the FS - but that doesnt help me either [17:55] the use of "force" is usually a clue too [18:00] amcsi_: there are even pre-built docker images for this task: https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-mssql-server [18:01] amcsi_: if you have long term system engineers / operators in your company, i recommend having a chat with them on how they would approach the situation of migrating the software / data or creating a compatible environment, and why.
