josb25108004when I use./code|wc -c| get the number 27 which is not the length of the output what should I do to get the length of the output02:09
tomreynjosb25108004: maybe you want   wc -m   instead?02:11
PuchoNZHi folks, I tried upgrading from 22.04 to 23.04 using do-release-upgrade and after the upgrade completed and rebooted, machine was still on 22.04 and all sources pointing to lunar. Any ideas?02:12
tomreynPuchoNZ: that's peculiar. there's a log of what was done in /var/log/ somewhere, some subdirectory with "upgrade", i think.02:15
tomreynmaybe if you have a file system with point in time recovery (btrfs?), this could explain the situation.02:16
josb25108004tomreyn, I tried this and same result02:17
tomreynjosb25108004: how do yuo tell it's not the number you expect?02:18
leftyfbjosb25108004: -c is byte count02:19

tomreynjosb25108004: what makes you say it's not 27 characters?02:36
PuchoNZtomreyn only thing i found under /var/log/upgrade was a telemetry file with02:39
PuchoNZ{"From": "22.04", "InstallMedia": "Ubuntu-Server 22.04.3 LTS \"Jammy Jellyfish\" - Release amd64 (20230810)", "Type": "Text", "ThirdPartySources": false, "Stages": {"0": "start", "1": "PREPARE", "38": "MODIFY_SOURCES", "426": "FETCH", "445": "INSTALL", "446": "INSTALL", "478": "INSTALL", "873": "POSTUPGRADE", "876": "CLEANUP", "1962": "REBOOT"}}02:39

tomreynPuchoNZ: hmm, sorry, i don't have an upgraded ubuntu system here right now, can't check where it should be.02:41

Juesthey umm, anyone with experience dealing with issues that arise from upgrading 20.04 to 22.04?03:53
guivercJuest, just outline problem & people will answer as they're able.  problems are usually 3rd party package caused in my experience05:15
Juestguiverc: in this case its ubuntu packages having gotten messed up. /etc/default/grub got removed from the packages, plymouth is unconfigured/shows nothing05:17
Juestthere's probably more stuff05:17
alkisgJuest: what's the output of this: ls /usr/share/xsessions | nc termbin.com 999905:21
Juestalkisg: why?05:22
alkisgJuest: to see which ubuntu desktop environments you have installed05:22
Juestthis is a default ubuntu desktop installation, no other desktop environments are installed05:23
alkisgAnd what's the output of: dpkg -l | grep ubuntu | grep nc termbin.com 999905:23
alkisgAnd if you again ask why, I'll pass :)05:23
migbitsJuest, just answer05:38
migbitsi took think i know somethings but for certain i probably know nothing completly05:38
migbitsgrub got removed?05:39
Juestmy whole issue with grub and things going amiss was caused by /etc/defaults/grub not existing05:40
Juesti had to copy it from /usr/share/grub/default/grub and update-grub05:41
Juestsudo update-grub05:41
Juesti've realized that the issue i was having is resolved05:41
Juestmigbits: no, the grub packages removed /etc/defaults/grub from the package05:42
Juestalkisg: first command: https://termbin.com/x2o905:50
Juest second command, which failed because you put grep nc instead of just nc https://termbin.com/3i3f05:50
Juestplease help me understand, why /etc/default/grub was removed and not restored during the upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04?05:53
alkisgJuest: OK, your metapackages seem to be there. I'd also run this, to check for file and settings changes. It will take a lot of time: sudo dpkg -V05:55
alkisgWhen it's done, put the result to some pastebin05:55
Juestalkisg: nothing about grub but other packages, just minor things05:58
alkisgJuest: nothing that would explain the plymouth difference? Also, apart from grub and plymouth, did you observe other things missing?05:59
ficheroJuest: i upgraded from 18 something to 22.04 and grub file is there on /etc/default/05:59
Juestalkisg: the plymouth issue was due to grub configuration06:00
Juestfichero: i dont know what happened but it went away for me, maybe something was left mid-progress somewhere and it didnt tell me06:01
Juestplymouth splash was not showing up06:01
Juestalkisg: no, i have not observed anything else amiss06:02
alkisgJuest: OK. I don't know of any cases where /etc/default/grub was deleted on upgrades or otherwise. Did you already restore it or do you need help on that?06:02
JuestI have already got instructed to copy it from /usr/share/grub/default/grub which did exist, i dont know where it comes from because looking at the grub packages the files do not contain any configuration paths other than grub.d stuff06:03
Juestand inputted pci=nomsi which is needed on this gigabyte brix s i3-6100U computer.06:04
Juestvery strange06:10
Juestglad its resolved06:10
Juestthanks06:10
Juestalkisg: dpkg -V output https://pastes.io/dyubrgyzvk06:14
alkisgJuest: minor stuff indeed, but it might indicate some unclean shutdown at some point, as the files that are corrupted aren't files that anything would touch06:15
Juestis there anything to fix with those files?06:16
alkisgJuest: yes, you may run: dpkg -S /path/to/file => this tells you which package it belongs in,06:21
alkisgthen: sudo apt install --reinstall that-package06:21
alkisgdpkg -S /usr/share/man/man5/sane-umax_pp.5.gz => libsane-common06:22
alkisgsudo apt install --reinstall libsane-common06:22
Juestthanks, figuring it out myself06:23

SteelRosewhich file defines where the default path for the user's home directory is layed out?14:00
SteelRoseSome users on a system are under /home and others under /home/users ... and that's confusing14:00
leftyfbSteelRose: /etc/passwd14:01
SteelRoseleftyfb: that's a negative.14:01
SteelRosewhen you useradd a new user, it reads from some config file to know where to create the home directory ...14:01
SteelRoseI already checkec in /etc/login.defs but nothing there14:02
leftyfbSteelRose: sudo useradd -d /path/to/new/home newuser14:04
leftyfbyour users with /home/users were probably created by some 3rd party app/script that defined the home as /home/users14:05
SteelRosethat's what I was guessing too... these are legacy systems14:06
SteelRosebtw: /etc/defaults/useradd is where HOME is defined and is "/home" by default14:06
leftyfbbut that is only for the "useradd" application14:07
leftyfbSteelRose: for instance, that won't work for adduser14:08
SteelRoseI'm trying to use Smallstep and it can't cope with the users under /home/users...14:08
leftyfbso change the path for those users14:09

ossetomreyn: Belated thanks. There is such a line in /etc/gdb/custom.conf but it's commented out. I am using the nouveau drivers when using 5.19. How can I check for 6.2? is it even possible to change that based on kernel?19:32
tomreynosse: it's possible that it differs by kernel version, since the proprietary module may have been built against one but not the other kernel version19:37
tomreynosse: you can see the graphics driver in settings -> about, if i remember correctly19:38
osseit says "llvmpipe (LLVM 15.0.7, 256 bits)" and sudo lshw -class display says "driver=noveau"19:40
osseNo idea what it would have said with 6.2 because I don't get that far19:40
tomreynoh, so how far do you get with 6.2?19:41
tomreyn!bootlog19:41
ubottuTo 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/KernelBootParameters19:41
osseI have removed quiet and splash before and (visually anyway) it stop's at [ OK ] Mounted /home. I will try the systemd.log_level thing19:42
ossejournalctl -b -1 seems fine. But I'm not sure what to look for19:43
tomreynmaybe do a file system check on / and /boot  as well just to be sure19:43
tomreynjournalctl -b -1   would show what was logged during the previous (i.e. not current) system runtime (which got far enough to start systemd logging to disk)19:44
tomreynif you want to share a log (cutting off at 100 lines), you could use    journalctl -b -1  |& nc termbin.com 9999    (for example)19:46
tomreyn*1000 lines19:46
tomreynjournalctl -kb -1     would show just what the kernel logged - this may be sufficient already. assuming the failed boot was logged to disk, and it was the last but one.19:47
tomreyni mean the previous one (not the current)19:48
osse6.2: https://termbin.com/17xx    5.19: https://termbin.com/0920l  the latter is longer and contains several lines after what is the last line in the 6.2 case19:51

Guest76Hey, is this the official Ubuntu channel?20:16
tomreynosse: if bios upgrade is not an option right now, temporarily disabling iommu (in bios or with kernel cmdline option) should work around it.20:16

Guest76I am looking for info on how to build a lean Ubuntu server that still has all of the essential security packages. My usecase is that it needs to run Node.js & MySQL apps.20:17
Guest76i dont know how to go about this20:17
Guest76I came across "Ubuntu server". I want to know if it can be made even leaner than that.20:18
ravageGuest76: Ubuntu Server is what you want20:19
Guest76What about minimal Ubuntu?20:19
ravageyou can choose a minimal server setup during the install process20:20
Guest76https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Minimal20:20
Guest76How much memory does a minimal ubuntu server use?20:21
Guest76ravage20:22
ravagea few gb20:23
ravagei dont know the exact number20:23
tomreyndpeneds on the architecture, but you'll probably get away with a little more than 1 GB RAM to boot it.20:23
tomreyn*depends20:23
ravageRAM is minimal on ubuntu server just to boot it20:23
ravagebut if you plan to use mysql that really is not what you need to worry about20:24
Guest76How are they giving 0.5 gb if the minimum required 1gb? https://www.vultr.com/pricing/#cloud-compute/20:24
toddcGuest76: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/install-ubuntu-server#1-overview20:24
tomreynit can work with less, i just suggested a safe value20:24
Guest76toddc I already checked out the link, they dont give RAM requirements under "requirements"20:25
tomreynfor what you plan to do, you'll want more than 1 GB RAM anyways20:26
tomreyn"My usecase is that it needs to run Node.js & MySQL apps."20:26
toddcas above it can run with less than 4GB but may become a issue  later it depends on load and work processes it may well need more  I use 4 a0s a minimum to start20:27
leftyfbrunning mysql and node.js don't take much memory. Loading them up with some undetermined amount of data does                                                                                                                                            `````20:28

toddcGuest76: I have a web server running with 256mb but it use/load is very small and took a lot of tweaking to get it there20:33
Guest76Thats 2nd point anyways. Back to lean Ubuntu LTS server. How do I do it?20:33
Guest76toddc what are you doing with that tiny thing? Thats what she said.20:34

Guest76I am currently reading a book on Ubuntu administration. So that tells you i am very new20:37
toddcGuest76: memory and read write20:37
Guest76leftyfb I checked out a video for doing it and that option does not pop up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2m52F0S2w820:37
Guest11Hello; The 23.04 release states that it fully supports Microsoft Intune, but I'm unable to get it to proceed past sign-in. I just get stuck at a "Get the app" screen20:38
Guest76toddc i dont understand, what do you mean by memory and read write?20:38
toddcGuest76: my chages only apply to rpi with sd card you will not need to20:40
leftyfbGuest76: pretty sure that is a tutorial for ubuntu 20.04 which was released over 3 years ago and doesn't have the minimal option. I would recommend 22.04 which does have the minimal option20:41
Guest76I got disconnected, dont know why20:42
Guest76leftyfb Is there any documentation on which ubuntu packages are essential for security and networking so I can handpick those?20:42
leftyfbGuest76: you are asking very loaded questions. Security is a very broad topic, which doesn't fit into 1 piece of documentation nor something that can just "enabled"20:43
Guest76And you guys didnt comment on this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Minimal20:43
Guest76leftyfb I am sorry, I just want to learn. Can you atleast tell me what I should read after I am done with my Ubuntu admin book? If my goal is to have the leanest meanest secure Ubuntu server?20:43
leftyfbGuest76: sorry, I do not have any tutorials bookmarked or that I'm aware of that I would personally recommend other than typing "ubuntu security" or "linux security" into google. I also wouldn't learn this stuff on a public-facing machine.20:47
Guest76leftylb Ok, how do I learn about the different parts of Ubuntu? I guess that is the right place to start? Do you agree?20:50
