| Kartagis | I have a problem. I have installed Ubuntu desktop in UTM on Mac. However, the grub menu stayed the same. How can I at least boot to a specific option? | 09:25 |
| CosmicDJ | Kartagis: maybe UTM is still booting from the ubuntu install iso? did you try "ejecting" the iso/cdrom? | 09:29 |
| Kartagis | CosmicDJ: yes I did, it then says "Not found" or something like that. | 09:30 |
| CosmicDJ | Kartagis: maybe follow the guide closely? https://docs.getutm.app/guides/ubuntu/ | 09:30 |
| Kartagis | oh, I probably need to stop the VM to umount the ISO | 09:34 |
| rainfly | \ | 09:36 |
| Kartagis | CosmicDJ: yes, I did need to do that. I stopped the VM and ejected the ISO. | 09:39 |
| ravage | Kartagis: you are on Apple Silicon? it is not officially supported here but maybe you want to check out https://asahilinux.org/ | 09:40 |

| Kartagis | rainfly: I'm not ditching macOS, I'd never do that. | 10:05 |
| CosmicDJ | rainfly: UTM is a VM software like VirtualBox or VMWare Workstation | 10:06 |

| simonov123 | hi | 10:39 |
| simonov123 | nice to meet you,my pleasure Lucio | 10:39 |
| simonov123 | i developed an application for ubuntu | 10:40 |
| simonov123 | and i want to pubblish on your repositories | 10:40 |
| simonov123 | how to do it? | 10:41 |
| ravage | simonov123: the fastest way is to look at https://snapcraft.io | 10:41 |
| simonov123 | so i need to turn my deb in a snap | 10:42 |
| ravage | deb is a supported plugin | 10:43 |
| rainfly | Is there a safe tool like BitLocker for Ubuntu? | 10:44 |
| Paris | there is a tool to build a deb package from your app, that can be install like the other one, then it needs to be accepted in the official repository, you gotta submit itto the official packagers or something. | 10:44 |
| ravage | rainfly: the installer supports full disk encryption. if you want to encrypt an external drive open "Disks" | 10:45 |
| ravage | you can create luks encrypted partitions there | 10:45 |
| simonov123 | my deb package has already been built and working,i have just to put it on repository,i'm looking for the channel for communicate with official repository | 10:46 |
| Haris_ | hello all | 10:46 |
| Haris_ | I'm on 20.x LTS. I'm trying to customize path for mysql server. on configuration, and subsequent mysqld start, it fails. then when I run mysqld --initialize it gives me a stupid error ===> mysqld: Can't create directory '/mnt/custom/path/' (OS errno 13 - Permission denied) <=== I'm running all of this as root on this instance | 10:48 |
| Haris_ | instance = VM | 10:48 |
| Haris_ | Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS. codename: focal | 10:49 |
| ravage | The MySQLd process will still use the user defined in the configuration | 10:49 |
| ravage | The default user is mysql | 10:50 |
| ravage | So make sure that user can write there | 10:50 |
| Haris_ | I had to delete that folder b/c mysqld --initialize gives me the error that folder already exists | 10:51 |
| Haris_ | mysqld: Can't create directory '/mnt/custom/path/' (OS errno 17 - File exists) | 10:51 |
| Haris_ | (2) I'v had to put my custom config in /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.conf. Is this where I customize my.cnf role config file for it? | 10:52 |
| Haris_ | Is there a way to initialize mysql w/ a custom path on focal? | 10:58 |
| Haris_ | user mysql exists. I already created the folder and applied the ownership/permissions. then I had to delete it when I got this error | 10:59 |
| Haris_ | Is mysql config hard-coded somewhere, where I have to adapt to make it work with custom path on focal? | 11:00 |
| Haris_ | I can see it in audit log apparmor is denying mysql for this | 11:01 |
| Haris_ | how to adapt apparmor to make mysqld work with custom datadir path? I added custom paths in apprmor. reloaded two times. restarted apparmor once. still I get permission denied on mysqld --initialize | 11:08 |
| Haris_ | guys .. anyone around? I can't proceed with my work b/c of this | 11:21 |
| wyre | there is no linux-image pacakges in focal-backports? https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=focal-backports&searchon=names&keywords=linux-image | 11:21 |
| CosmicDJ | wyre: why should there be one? | 11:26 |
| Haris_ | what config file does mysql client use on focal? | 11:36 |
| Haris_ | got mysqld working with custom datadir | 11:36 |
| tomreyn | Haris_: man mysql should tell | 11:41 |
| Haris_ | It may. reading it. What's the default for ubuntu/focal as an OS/platform? | 11:42 |
| tomreyn | in the past, the default per user mysql client configuration location was ~/.my.cnf (if I remember correctly). | 11:43 |
| tomreyn | defaults can change, but i assume this one has not | 11:44 |
| Haris_ | nothing in /etc/default for mysql server | 11:45 |
| Haris_ | or client | 11:45 |
| tomreyn | i wouldn't expect anything there | 11:45 |
| Haris_ | when I run ===> mysql -u root -p <=== I get the error ===> mysql: [ERROR] unknown variable 'datadir=/mnt/custom/mysql/path'. | 11:47 |
| Haris_ | where is it getting this from | 11:47 |
| tomreyn | there should just be /etc/mysql and the per user location. potentially, if you modified things a lot, mysqld might also be looking in the database storage directory (/var/lib/mysql by default) | 11:47 |
| Haris_ | its giving me my custom configured path | 11:48 |
| tomreyn | so you configured it, so you'll know where it gets it from? | 11:48 |
| tomreyn | you can always use strace to see which file system paths a given software accesses (or tries to access). | 11:50 |
| tomreyn | changing the default mysql data directory is probably somewhat involved due to apparmor and possibly other reasons. so if you don't strictly have to, don't. certainly someone will already have done so, and listed the needed steps, though. | 11:51 |
| Haris_ | ok. I commented my config in /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysql.conf | 11:52 |
| Haris_ | now it gives me the password prompt. but gives me the error that it can't connect to mysql using the socket file on the custom datadir path | 11:52 |
| Haris_ | we almost never use the default datadir path. untill its an inconsequential implementation. I'm used CentOS. I don't have to worry about these basic things there. it initilizes mysqld with custom datadir path with no further kinks required | 11:55 |
| rainfly | What's the biggest offense for Ubuntu users? | 11:56 |
| Haris_ | mentioning CentOS? | 11:58 |
| Haris_ | or something that works on another platform w/ not much changing around? | 11:59 |
| Haris_ | got it working | 12:02 |
| Haris_ | put bad path in ~/.my.cnf for cliient socket | 12:02 |
| Haris_ | $s/cliient/client/ | 12:02 |
| Haris_ | $ = % | 12:03 |

| tmm88 | or has some kind of idiot claimed in front of canonical that specfiic users shall not access internet relay chat via the proper clients, because that may pose as an international security threat? i mean, is learning computer science a threat or a protecting veil for sanitizing the web? | 13:19 |
| CosmicDJ | tmm88: you really expect some help with that attitude? | 13:23 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:30 |
| tomreyn | tmm88: if you can share some terminal output or logs of your attempts to install the software (after updating apt's cache) on a pastebin, i bet someone over here could help. | 13:37 |
| tomreyn | if you need help with doing this, please just ask, too. | 13:37 |
| tomreyn | rainfly: by ".iso copy", do you mean a bootable iso? and what's your goal there? | 13:39 |
| tomreyn | (i mean; why do you need this?) | 13:40 |
| rainfly | I have SD card with entrire system on it. I want to create .iso backup but im not sure if it's gonna work if its encrypted. | 13:45 |
| rainfly | The main purpose of the backup is to get the previous state of the machine | 13:45 |
| rainfly | My apologies if my question was not so precise | 13:46 |
| tomreyn | having the entire system on an sd card isn't a great setup, because this is rather short-lived / unreliable storage. are you using hardware which can only use an sdcard for storage? | 13:47 |
| tomreyn | full disk encryption with many writes to the crypto container on an sdcard would be an especially bad idea, i'm afraid, because the crypto container will increase the amount of writes (if not *that* much) | 13:48 |
| koom | what kind of crypto container? | 13:50 |
| Psil0 | rainfly, i am guessing its for raspberry pi? | 13:50 |
| Psil0 | sd card? | 13:50 |
| rainfly | I mean, it's a small computer (like raspberryPI, but not exactly) | 13:50 |
| tomreyn | rainfly: you can create an image of the sdcard and store that on different storage media. it will be larger than a file-system backup, that, too, can be encrypted. | 13:50 |
| rainfly | TBH it doesn't have to be encrypted, but my system currently is. | 13:51 |
| rainfly | I can operate it easily but what's gonna happen if i just use some tool to backup it | 13:51 |
| Psil0 | i am just interested why its encrypted usually those systems cannot handle encryption maybe i am wrong | 13:51 |
| Psil0 | you can encrpyt raspbian? | 13:51 |
| rainfly | Idk, my friend told me that he needs some kind of point to go back. Its Ubuntu with ROS. | 13:52 |
| tomreyn | rainfly: i just through about this more. it may indeed be the most simple solution to just create a 1-to-1 image of the sd card if it's small enough. as long as you just read but not restore it, casing little stress to the sd card, that should be fine. it should also be reasonably fast if the sd card isn't that large. it will still be slower than a proper backup, plus you can't create it while the system is running. | 13:57 |
| tomreyn | casing -> causing (just) | 13:57 |
| rainfly | Thanks, I will try to work on it | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | so, for example, if you want to do nightly image dumps of the sd card in a different computer, this could be an option. | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | personally, i'd prefer the online backup approach. | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | !backup | 13:58 |
| ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup, !borg, and !cloning | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | i'd recommend borg or restic | 13:59 |
| tomreyn | rainfly: if your SoC provides an USB or a SATA bus, you should prefer those and use a better storage media (such as a modern SSD) on it. | 14:02 |
| rainfly | The SD card was a prototype. I know that this is not the best way to keep your system running. | 14:05 |
| plundra | Where is the repo for the cloud-image build process?

| plundra | Gotcha! Thanks. | 14:08 |
| amcsi__ | hey, is it typical for a new Ubuntu server to disallow external SSH connection using ipv6? | 14:09 |
| tomreyn | amcsi__: depends on whether you installed openssh or not. ipv4 and ipv6 should be treated the same, if it's a standard installation. | 14:10 |
| amcsi__ | I'm created an Ubuntu server in Azure that has a public ipv4 and ipv6, and I'm able to connect with ipv4, but not ipv6. I just want to rule out the firewall on the machine before looking into fixing the issue in the Azure security layer | 14:10 |
| tomreyn | i'm not familiar with azures' images. | 14:11 |
| amcsi__ | oh wait, the problem may be a lot closer than I thought | 14:13 |
| tomreyn | try lsof -i :22 and use netcat or similar to connect to port 22 both from inside and outside the system | 14:13 |
| amcsi__ | I don't have IPv6 enabled on my own machine :D | 14:13 |

| aiena | While testing and developing apparmor profiles. Iis it ok to chown a profile in etc/apparmor.d/ to the regular owner, edit and reload it and then finally switch to root or will it not work if the profile is not owned by the root user? | 15:40 |
| aiena | regular user/profile developer | 15:41 |
| leftyfb | aiena: I'm pretty sure there's no reason anything in /etc/ needs to be owned by anyone else other than root. Especially apparmor profiles | 15:41 |
| aiena | hmm I guess the alternative is running my text editor as root but I don't like that | 15:41 |
| aiena | user created profiles not default ones | 15:42 |
| aiena | vim is ok but i dont know if its a good idea for featherpad etc. | 15:42 |
| szstr | aiena: ayt u must set the chgrp to something ur user is ayn then chmod -R 0770 /etc/apparmor.d/ with a limited time Grrr name. use nano text editor ayn terminal as root | 15:43 |

| aiena | yes I said I am practicing linux security to sysadmin a small group of people. | 15:46 |
| aiena | I was learning selinux but then realisied ubuntu uses apparmor | 15:46 |
| aiena | had setup selinux in a kubuntu vm but realised that might not be a good idea | 15:46 |
| aiena | its beeter to use it on fedora/rocky etc | 15:47 |
| leftyfb | aiena: right, so the proper way to do this is managing the configs as root/sudo. Not as an end user | 15:47 |
| aiena | thank you | 15:47 |
| szstr | nothing is a good ideeea when you can't use root like a light switch un---orjunately | 15:47 |
| aiena | I guess using vim /terminal editor then is a better idea | 15:48 |
| leftyfb | szstr: can we help you with something? | 15:48 |
| szstr | are u asking nicely? | 15:48 |
| aiena | leftyfb, I think he's using English in a funny way but the message is there. | 15:48 |

| alcosta | I had the intuition that, maybe, the operating system was not able to manage the high resolution display. | 17:10 |
| alcosta | I connected to the same graphic card, another display, philips, 22", with low (!) resolution of 1920x1080 and... the system started! | 17:11 |
| EriC^^ | nice | 17:12 |
| alcosta | The i saw able to download the proper dirves for the graphic card (nvidia-driver-470) and subsequently all was right! The system was newly capable to start with the high resolution display! :) | 17:13 |

| peter_shoes_ | Hey, does anyone have a link to information on IRC etiquette? I'm joining some channels for gcc development and I'd like to not look too stupid ... | 17:14 |
| tomreyn | the /topic has one which applies to this channel | 17:14 |
| EriC^^ | sounds good alcosta | 17:15 |
| tomreyn | peter_shoes_: for generic irc questions which relate to this irc network (libera), you could try asking in #libera | 17:15 |
| alcosta | I solved the problem but... after some days of troubles! | 17:16 |
| peter_shoes_ | thank you both | 17:16 |
| alcosta | For me the problem is solved but, for some other, the problem can repeat! | 17:16 |
| tomreyn | alcosta: did you try booting from usb with the large resolution screen and the failsafe graphics option? | 17:17 |
| alcosta | I tried something similar to boot with alternate option but.. I didn't know what to do with such an option! | 17:18 |
| alcosta | What to do from a command line terminal for solving the problem! | 17:19 |
| alcosta | The system was able to boot from disk (no more need for pen) without graphics but... what had i to do per solving the problem? Unplug the high resolution monitor and connect the low resolution one was very simple, but after some day of big troubles! | 17:21 |
| tomreyn | alcosta: booting with the "failsafe graphics" option from the grub menu (first (text) menu showing) may work out for installing, and the installer should then automatically select the proprietary nvidia driver for installation, so you should be able to use the high dpi screen ine after installation. note, however, that 20.04 is getting a bit dated, the latest LTS release is 22.04, and its installaer may provide better support for your graphics | 17:23 |
| tomreyn | card. | 17:23 |
| tomreyn | alcosta: instead of spending 3 days to try to solve it, you're welcome to come here and discuss the details of the issue sooner in the future. | 17:24 |
| alcosta | In my opinion, it's evident that ubuntu 20.04 can't boot, for the first time, from a large resolution monitor with a poor graphic card like nvidia geforce GT710! | 17:24 |
| leftyfb | alcosta: did you try 22.04? | 17:25 |
| alcosta | I'm very much engaged in developing a new app, with a great number of other problems! I tried to load ubuntu 22.04 but i found that, for the moment, 20.04 is better, because i know it a bit more! | 17:27 |
| alcosta | With some features of 22.04 i was a bit unfit! (I don't remember well, now, with which particular feature, but i preferred to continue with 20.04. | 17:28 |
| leftyfb | alcosta: ok, but you only have about 14 more months or so till 20.04 will be unsupported by the Ubuntu community | 17:30 |
| alcosta | I'm coding the app in node.js, python and some other feature... it was unfit, for me, to reload all the libraries in a total new version of ubuntu or to mix the two versions! | 17:31 |
| leftyfb | ok, so it sounds like you're painting yourself into a closet by only developing for aging libraries | 17:32 |
| leftyfb | your call, it's just more work for you down the road | 17:32 |
| alcosta | I was more confident to continue with the old version 20.04. I hope that in the next months i can try my app with new new version 22.04. | 17:33 |
| alcosta | To mix coding the new app and testing the new features of 22.04 is not for me so comfortable! | 17:36 |
| alcosta | One thing at a time, please! | 17:36 |
| tomreyn | ok alcosta. do you need ubuntu support with anything else at this time? | 17:37 |
| alcosta | I have some problem with launching google chrome from 20.04 version! After a new boot, the left bar is blinking for about 20 seconds! Subsequently, the is no other problem! Launching chrome after the first boot don't give any more problem! Is that solved with version 22.04 too? | 17:39 |
| tomreyn | try using Chromium instead. | 17:40 |
| alcosta | As mentioned before, I love my old habits! Is there a solution without changing Chrome for Chromium? (Whoever leaves the old path for the new one, knows what he leaves, he doesn't know what he may finds! (ancient Italian proverb)) | 17:44 |
| tomreyn | You'll need to ask Google about this. | 17:45 |
| alcosta | Is there a google channel on libera.chat? | 17:46 |
| tomreyn | (There is no Google Chrome package in Ubuntu, and most volunteers here will only be using the open source Chromium variant of this web browser.) | 17:46 |

| ubottu | alcosta: Please see my private message | 17:46 |
| alcosta | ubottu: I answered to your private message but i don't think you was able to read it! | 17:50 |
| mandem0110 | alcosta: probably not, ubottu is a *bot*... | 17:51 |
| alcosta | Any way, ok! I will survive to all these problems! I hope other people can survive too! :) | 17:52 |
| alcosta | See you next time! :) | 18:10 |
| alcosta | Any way, i know that in April 2024, the new version ubuntu 24 will be available! For the moment I prefer to skip version 22 and go directly to version 24. That is what i thought some months ago! Thank you every body! :) | 18:22 |

| rfm | alcosta, in your planning, be aware that there will not be a direct 20.04>24.04 upgrade, and the upgrade to 24.04 from 22.05 won't be available until 24.04.1 ships around August 2024. | 18:45 |
| rfm | alcosta, if you plan to simply back up your data and do a fresh install, the upgrade restrictions won't affect you. | 18:45 |
| alcosta | rfm, thank you! In fact, I plan to back up my data and do a fresh install of version 24, preferably after some time of testing. :) | 18:50 |
