[02:25] <bitbyte_> Hey guys I'm looking at setting up a SMTP server so my server can email me log details any one know of any good guides ?
[02:26] <bitbyte_> Cause at the moment I'm looking at : http://kylegoslin.wordpress.com/2012/06/05/116/   but where it has<EMAIL_ADDRESS>can i just put anything there in the config ?
[06:10] <moopers> is there someone online who can assist me?
[06:12] <moopers> what is the best open source program to keep files on a computer synchronized with an external hd?
[08:05] <client> moopers, why are you asking that here?
[13:48] <ehnde> i have a fakeraid volume that worked fine in fedora, but ubuntu doesn't see it. is there anything i can do to check support for that? or do i have to go to mdadm?
[13:50] <tboat> hey all, I am currently having an issue where IPtables is blocking samba from showing the share on my Windows Network.  The correct ports are being allowed, as I can direct connect to it, but it won't show automatically
[13:57] <ehnde> screw this i'm going to rebuild it with mdadm
[14:47] <arubi> Hey, anyone downloaded and installed server 12.04 lts 32bit lately?
[14:47] <arubi> whatever I do, I always get an md5sum error during the integrity test
[14:48] <arubi> tried to download on two different machines, two different internet isps
[14:48] <arubi> two different usb sticks
[14:48] <arubi> the md5sum of the iso is always correct, but it always fail during install
[14:48] <arubi> I tried copying the image to the usb with unetbootin and dd, no difference
[14:48] <arubi> both machines pass memtest
[14:49] <TJ-> arubi: I can try it to a VM if that'd help
[14:50] <arubi> Oh thanks TJ-
[14:50] <arubi> that would help a lot
[14:51] <TJ-> It'll have to wait until I've got KDE to replace Unity though - Can't get keyboard input focus to switch to Firefox on another X screen!
[14:52] <arubi> sounds like something anything other than unity would solve :)
[14:53] <TJ-> LOL yeah! Been remodelling my study and switched to a vidock with a 4-head GPU so the lappy can drive 6 monitors... got 4 up now, but Unity has problems with 2 heads, let alone 3 X screens!
[14:53] <TJ-> OK, will be back momentarily... if KDE starts!
[14:54] <arubi> Okay, gl
[15:05] <nyRednek> i'm having a unique issue...i'm stuck behind a captive portal and can't access http. i can, however, ssh to my ubuntu server and would like to find a way around this captive portal if i could via a vpn...
[15:07] <jrwren> if you can ssh you can ssh with -D portnum. that starts a socks5 proxy server on portnum, then just set your web browser to use localhost:portnum as proxy
[16:13] <arubi> ls
[16:13] <arubi> whoops
[16:32] <mibofra> hi guys
[16:32] <mibofra> a strange thing
[16:34] <mibofra> I've set up a bind9 sever, so if I query it from localhost or another remote pc the records I've set are working and the query for other domains too
[16:34] <mibofra> but I can't query the server for other domains that isn't my domain form remote
[16:34] <mibofra> example
[16:38] <mibofra> I can query mydomain.com to my ns server with both localhost and another remote pc and get an answer
[16:38] <mibofra> I query ubuntu.com: on localhost I get an answer, on the remote pc I get ** server can't find ubuntu.com: REFUSED with nslookup
[16:39] <jrwren> mibofra: do any recursive queries work?
[16:40] <jrwren> mibofra: do you have the "." zone defined?
[16:41] <jrwren> mibofra: its in /etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones by default
[16:41] <mibofra> jrwren, ok I've tried, it does the same as it does with the normal queries
[16:42] <mibofra> jrwren, I've the zones defined, 2
[16:42] <mibofra> one normal, one recursive
[16:45] <jrwren> mibofra: i think you need the '.' zone to resolve for anything that you don't have an explicit zone.
[16:45] <jrwren> basically, you need the "root zone"
[16:46] <mibofra> uhm
[16:46] <mibofra> but It's strage that with the same server on localhost it works fine and on a remote pc no xD
[16:47] <jrwren> oh!
[16:47] <jrwren> so 'host www.ubuntu.com localhost' works on the same server running bind
[16:48] <mibofra> jrwren, yes If I query the bind server on its own machine it can answer for its records and other domains, if I query on a remote machine it answer to me only for its own records, for anything else I get ** server can't find google.it: REFUSED
[16:49] <mibofra> for example
[16:49] <mibofra> so I think I need a special setting to allow this for the remote terminals
[16:55] <jrwren> my bind config is modified a lot from what defaults in ubuntu
[16:55] <jrwren> can you pastebin your /etc/bind/named.conf and all the includes?
[17:08] <mibofra> jrwren, ok
[17:10] <mibofra> jrwren, named.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579104/
[17:11] <mibofra> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579119/ named.conf.options
[17:11] <mibofra> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579125/ named.conf.default-zones
[17:12] <mibofra> that's all jrwren
[17:16] <zotta> Is there a way to speed up tcp connections to my server? I need 4 parallel connections to fill the pipe.Is there a setting so that 1 connection will be fast enough?
[17:19] <mibofra> ok jrwren I've solved
[17:19] <mibofra> I need an allow-query { any; }; option
[17:19] <mibofra> :)
[17:20] <mibofra> jrwren, anyway thanks :)
[17:21] <HiddenDjinn> trying to use a vps as a socks5 proxy...getting connection reset every time i try to access a page. any advice?
[17:39] <zotta> HiddenDjinn: what program do you use?
[17:42] <HiddenDjinn> ssh
[17:45] <zotta> exact error message of browser?
[17:46] <zotta> does it say something about proxy
[17:46] <zotta> or not
[17:59] <jrwren> mibofra: the weird part is that I don't have that and mine is working. *shrug*
[18:00] <mibofra> jrwren, ubuntu server 12.10 bind9 1:9.9.3.dfsg.P2-4ubuntu1
[18:00] <mibofra> you?
[18:02] <jrwren> mibofra: not exactly, but I HAVE used exactly that with this exact config before.
[18:02] <mibofra> lol
[18:02] <jrwren> my config hasn't changed as I upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 and 13.10
[18:02] <mibofra> jrwren, the server is a vps so maybe the netconfig is strage xD
[18:03] <mibofra> I've to try at home with ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 dev branch and my internet connection
[18:06] <jrwren> what about your named.conf.local ?
[18:13] <mibofra> jrwren, I didn't send it?
[18:13] <mibofra> no ok just a second
[18:13] <jrwren> nope, just conf, conf.options and conf.default-zones is what you pasted
[18:14] <jrwren> thanks, i'm trying to learn along with you here :)
[18:14] <mibofra> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579458/ jeffrubic
[18:14] <mibofra> sorry jeffrubic XD
[18:14] <mibofra> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6579458/ jrwren
[18:15] <jrwren> wow, nothing there either.
[18:15] <jrwren> our configs are nearly identical, yet I don't require the allow-query {any;}; option to allow hosts to use my bind as a recursive server.
[18:15] <jrwren> so weird.
[18:52] <lickalott> hello all, looking for a good backup/imaging solution for my server.  i've played with FSarchiver (didn't like) and clonezilla.  But clonezilla is a little more intrusive than I was looking for.  Looking for a simple 1 button/script backup capability > an external source.
[18:52] <lickalott> any idea/opinions?
[19:53] <phunyguy> hello, got a fresh install of ubuntu-server 12.04.... /boot is ext4, and grub install failed after install.   Any ideas?  It boots to a grub prompt because the install wasn't proper.
[20:20] <krababbel> How is apt-get working when I install a package without doing 'apt-get update' first? Will it install the newer version or the one in my cache?
[20:21] <lifeless> krababbel: it will install the version for which there is metadata in your cache
[20:22] <krababbel> lifeless: Thank you.
[21:28] <krababbel> I have a server running bind DNS and I want to install OpenLDAP. Do I have to manually edit /etc/ldap/ldap.conf to enter my domain, or can Bind DNS provide this information automatically? I am not sure what record I have to use with Bind.
[21:52] <krababbel> What can I do when apt-get install does not see that a dependency is already installed? For example I want to install phpldapadmin, and it needs a webserver. I already use lighttpd, and it would satisfy this dependency, but apt-get install wants to install apache2 still.
[21:54] <krababbel> I mean how can I prevent the installation of apache, because there is already lighttpd installed. I could do it in aptitude, but I'd need a command line solution.
[22:00] <andol> krababbel: Odd, from what I can see lighttpd should do the trick in this case, given that phpldapadmin depends on apache2 | httpd, and that lighttpd provides httpd.
[22:01] <andol> krababbel: Assuming lighttpd being installed by way of the package manager?
[22:06] <krababbel> andol: yes, I just installed it via apt-get. I din't edit sourcer or anything.
[22:08] <krababbel> andol: The webserver and ldap server are two separate hosts, I am trying to install phpldapadmin on the webserver, where lighttpd is running already.
[22:09] <krababbel> The systems are updated, they are 13.10 servers, recently installed.
[22:10] <krababbel> aptitude wants to install apache also, but there I can just unselect it.
[22:10] <andol> krababbel: Hmm, might have been wrong, because it seems like it insits on apache on my local computer as well, even after having installed lighttpd.
[22:11] <andol> krababbel: Ahh, here we have it.
[22:12] <andol> There is also the dependency libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cli, where libapache-mod-php5 not suprisingly depends on apache
[22:13] <andol> If you beforehand instead install php5-cli it should be fine.
[22:13] <krababbel> andol: Of course, thank you a lot.
[22:14] <krababbel> I was wondering if there was some apt-get option I needed to use instead.
[22:14] <krababbel> andol: Thank you. :)
[22:14] <andol> krababbel: Glad it worked out.
[22:15] <hallyn_> sarnold: so i've got libvirt starting qemu (under strace -f) as my desktop uid, with apparmomr policy permitting PUx for /usr/bin/pulseaudio.  As my uid on terminal i can run /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start.  But strace shows -EPERM (NOT -EACCESS) when running /usr/bin/pulseaudio.  I'm confused.  Ideas
[22:15] <hallyn_> ?
[22:16] <hallyn_> Oh!  hm, those fersnickety acls maybe
[22:17] <hallyn_> nope, not that.
[22:18] <hallyn_> so what else can cause a -EPERM there?
[22:23] <adamjames> i am trying to get an atheros usb wifi adapter working on 12.04. it has chipset AR5523, i have searched the web and followed the guides that seem to have worked for other folks. lsusb shows the device but no firmware. i have copied the firmware to /lib/firmware and done modprobe ar5523 and still no luck. can anyone help me get this going?
[22:25] <adamjames> i know its odd for wifi on the server machine. i have a device that connects only over wifi that i would like to use with this machine
[22:41] <Cerales> I'm seeing some strange edge cases where, very occasionally, I get connection refused from apache while logrotate.d rotates apache's logs. I checked /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 and /etc/init.d/apache2, and confirmed that the right signals (USR1, i.e. graceful) are being sent. Has anyone encountered this before?

[22:52] <Cerales> whoops
[23:17] <hallyn_> ah, secvomp i bet
[23:17] <hallyn_> seccomp that is
[23:32] <phunyguy> How can I specify manually the drive to install grub to in the 12.04 Server installation?  It keeps assuming /dev/sda, but that is not the drive I am installing to.  In fact, that is what the USB key shows up as.
[23:32] <phunyguy> so it keeps installing grub to the USB key instead.


[14:33] <elopio> good morning team.
[14:33] <elopio> alesage: how is it going with system settings?
[14:37] <rhuddie> elopio, hey good morning
[14:37] <elopio> hello rhuddie
[14:37] <rhuddie> elopio, I was thinking about querying device for maps support
[14:38] <rhuddie> elopio, something like this seems to work: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9687891/
[14:38] <rhuddie> which checks if you have the click app installed
[14:41] <elopio> rhuddie: ok. Sounds fine. I  guess we could have different agps providers in the future, but then we will just update that method.
[14:41] <elopio> rhuddie: I would call the capability agps, instead of maps.
[14:42] <rhuddie> elopio, yes, you could make it as specific as you needed it to be. even have different methods for different providers if you need to know which one(s) are supported
[14:43] <elopio> rhuddie: yesterday we were wondering if the apt-get update thing should be reported as aa bug to autopkgtest. Maybe it should be done by the setup scripts, maybe with a flag or something.
[14:44] <elopio> could you please file a bug for that, and add a comment with the bug # in your branch?
[14:45] <rhuddie> elopio, sure, I'll raise the bug. But I merged that branch earlier this morning, do you want me to revert it?
[14:45] <elopio> rhuddie: no, that's fine. You can add the comment directly to trunk, no need to MP that.
[14:46] <rhuddie> elopio, ok
[14:46] <elopio> rhuddie: second thing, you said that you filed a bug for the wizard in rtm, right? Could you please make a branch to skip that test if we are on rtm, also with a comment linking the bug?
[14:48] <rhuddie> elopio, sure. that will require the config helper so we know if we are on rtm. should I just add those as helpers for now?
[14:49] <elopio>  rhuddie: yes, I think you should. Didn't you have a method to get the channel, in your last branch?
[14:49] <rhuddie> elopio, yes I do
[14:50] <rhuddie> elopio, the file I look at is only available on touch, not desktop
[14:50] <rhuddie> don't think that should be a problem for now, but if we move these helpers to autopilot we would obviously need to make it work with desktop too
[14:52] <elopio> rhuddie: that's good for now. I think that on desktop you could use something like /etc/lsb-release. But if you want, just raise an exception leaving that part for the future.
[14:54] <elopio> rhuddie: and final comment for today... :) Last time I called a click command they told me to better use the click db.
[14:54] <elopio> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~click-hackers/click/trunk/view/head:/click/commands/list.py#L29
[14:55] <elopio> you can do something like db = Click.DB(); db.read(); registry = Click.User.for_user(db, name=os.get_env('USER'))
[14:56] <rhuddie> elopio, thanks I'll take a look.
[14:56] <elopio> that is also good because you won't have to parse a string for the answer. You can query the registry.
[15:00] <rhuddie> elopio, fyi, this is the bug for rtm wizard: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-rtm/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1399576
[15:01] <elopio> rhuddie: great, thanks.
[15:55] <elopio> alesage: where are you?
[15:56] <alesage> elopio, here :) , sorry other pings, waiting on a build of system-settings to get your answer
[15:56] <elopio> alesage: ok. I'm getting my env ready to give it a try.
[16:07] <alesage> elopio I need to be updated on how to run an autopilot test on the phone, is the best way to shell into the phone and run from the source tree (for a unity8 autopilot tests which I don't think is dep8-able)?
[16:07] <elopio> alesage: it all depends what you are running.
[16:07] <elopio> best way is to do what jenkins does, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Testing
[16:08] <elopio> if you are debugging, you might want to make the phone writable, install bzr and emacs, and get the branch into the phone.
[16:09] <alesage> elopio, right, I'm usually doing that--just want to be sure that some nifty utility hasn't come into existence as I'm advising paulliu on how to run indicators tests on phone
[16:16] <alesage> elopio, balloons, what's your fav unity8 test, page-object-model-wise?
[16:18] <elopio> alesage: the new one: https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/unity8/edges_demo_test/+merge/244889
[16:22] <alesage> elopio, thx
[16:23] <balloons> i'll go with leo alesage :)
[16:24] <alesage> balloons, very wise choice
[16:26] <rhuddie> alesage, as we now need 2 approvals, could you take a look at: https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/ubuntu-sanity-tests/config-helpers/+merge/245754
[16:26] <alesage> rhuddie, ok shall do in a little bit
[16:26] <rhuddie> alesage, thank you
[16:47] <alesage> rhuddie, nothing interesting to add to that MP, approved :)
[16:47] <rhuddie> alesage thanks :)
[17:06] <alesage> elopio, have you worked with paulliu before?  he's helping with the indicators helpers, may have questions about how best to implement the page object model
[17:06] <elopio> alesage: for a short time when he was working on pay.
[17:06] <alesage> elopio, aha ok
[17:07] <elopio> alesage: tell him to ask here or on ubuntu-autopilot.
[17:07] <alesage> elopio, done :)
[17:07] <elopio> paulliu: oh, right, you are here :)
[17:07] <elopio> paulliu: if you need a hand, just ping ubuntu-qa.
[18:10] <alesage> elopio I'm running the sanity suite on a fresh flash and I'm failing due to apt-get 404's, have you witnessed?  feel a bit blocked by this
[18:10] <elopio> alesage: do you have trunk?
[18:11] <alesage> elopio, I'm reviewing https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/ubuntu-sanity-tests/serial/+merge/245599
[18:11] <elopio> alesage: I'll merge it with trunk.
[18:12] <elopio> alesage: give it a try to see if Richard's apt-get update solves it.
[18:12] <alesage> elopio, k
[18:13] <alesage> elopio, surprised if so b/c a manual apt-get update still 404s :( , running now
[18:16] <alesage> elopio, appears to have worked
[18:17] <elopio> alesage: awesome. I also tried the apt-get update myself, but I think what we are doing now is a little different. It temporarily mounts the partition as writable.
[18:17] <alesage> elopio, o I see
[18:18] <alesage> dark science
[18:18] <elopio> yeah, I didn't understood it all. But Richard should have filed a bug by now.
[18:52] <alesage> elopio, were you able to discover anything re: my settings blockage?
[18:53] <alesage> elopio, here's the latest result on Jenkins FWIW http://s-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/job/generic-deb-autopilot-runner-vivid-mako/603/
[19:04] <elopio> alesage: no, I was waiting for you to tell me if you needed a hand.
[19:05] <elopio> I will get to it after the standup.
[19:05] <alesage> elopio, ok yes I might need a hand at least to brainstorm
[19:05] <elopio> only one error, that's pretty good. And no longer pagecomponent errors. We can work with that.
[19:07] <alesage> but this sound failure is a mystery (and I've skipped all the other failures :) )
[19:28] <elopio> hey veebeers, is the --test-timeout flag released in rtm?
[19:33] <dobey> ok, i'm confused.
[19:34] <dobey> the autopilot tests need to be included within the click package, to be runnable with the x-test stuff in the manifest, with adt-run, right?
[19:36] <dobey> otherwise adt-run foo.click couldn't possibly work, right?
[19:45] <dobey> also, isn't filemanager supposed to be a fat package?
[19:59] <balloons> dobey, terminal and fm both got published as fat i believe
[20:01] <dobey> balloons: i just installed the update for fm on my mako, and looking at the file system, i only see the arm binaries
[20:03] <balloons> dobey, adt run works by pulling tests from the source tree @ revision
[20:03] <balloons> as soon as someone pushes an update its likely to lose fat package support, as people have to manually build the fat package
[20:03] <balloons> so tests don't go in the click
[20:05] <dobey> huh
[20:06] <dobey> i added the same stuff that fm has in it's CMakeLists.txt to install the ap tests, in pay-ui, and when i build the click the console log shows the files being installed to the place where the .click is built from
[20:07] <dobey> so i don't need to add that?
[20:09] <Letozaf_> balloons, hi
[20:09] <balloons> Letozaf_, hi
[20:10] <Letozaf_> balloons, I found out that editing a topic on shorts app does not work, shall I file a bug ?
[20:10] <Letozaf_> balloons, I found it out working on the edit topic tes
[20:10] <Letozaf_> test
[20:11] <balloons> dobey, ? not sure what you are trying to do, but no. the tests are pulled from source (or passed in). the click should be the same as the end user
[20:11] <balloons> Letozaf_, that's with the changes I take it?
[20:12] <balloons> and yes, a bug is alwasys useful :)
[20:12] <dobey> balloons: i'm trying to add autopkgtests to the pay-ui click. i was looking at filemanager for hints on how to do it.
[20:12] <Letozaf_> balloons, I was wondering If I was wrong as if you read in my mp: https://code.launchpad.net/~carla-sella/ubuntu-rssreader-app/fixed-test-edit-topic/+merge/245411 Joey and Roman don't seem to agree with me
[20:13] <Letozaf_> balloons, by the way: howzit ?
[20:13] <balloons> dobey, your manifest does need to be formatted properly, but it probably is already. can i see the source?
[20:14] <balloons> Letozaf_, not bad at all thanks
[20:14] <Letozaf_> balloons, looks like you are typing quite quikly :)
[20:15] <balloons> hah. hunt and peck super speed mode!
[20:15] <Letozaf_> balloons, :-)
[20:16] <dobey> balloons: i haven't added the autopkgtests bits to it yet. i thought the tests had to be installed, so i split the work into two tasks
[20:18] <balloons> dobey, ahh. yep, adt can just be pointed at an installed click and run the tests for it by pulling the click manifest and working it out
[20:19] <balloons> or pass it tests; or tests and a click
[20:55] <alesage> elopio, given what we talked about in stand-up maybe I'll just switch to temporarily skipping those tests, open a bug for each, then fix the non-Jenkins-related ones (i.e. the 'about' test we discussed yesterday)
[20:58] <elopio> alesage: yes. Make a branch with the skips. Run it 3 times to make sure it's green. Then make a branch that depends on that one, where we will remove the skips and solve the issues.
[20:58] <elopio> it's only required to file bugs if the first branch lands before the second one is ready.
[20:59] <alesage> elopio, ok now I know the process thx
[21:04] <elopio> ok, I'm off to pick my bike from the mechanic, and have lunch.
[21:04] <elopio> bbl
[21:22] <balloons> Letozaf_, sorry i missed your other ? earlier
[21:23] <balloons> Letozaf_, did you need help with that mp?
[21:23] <Letozaf_> balloons, I am reporting a bug as changing a fedd's topic does not work
[21:24] <Letozaf_> balloons, then I will put a note in the mp
[21:24] <balloons> kk
[21:24] <Letozaf_> balloons, :)
[22:44] <dobey> uhm
[22:44] <dobey> balloons: still here?
[22:46] <balloons> dobey, for a moment yes
[22:47] <dobey> balloons: do you know if doing adt-run on a click will always create a user session with xvfb or what?
[22:52] <balloons> dobey, it depends on the runner you choose
[22:52] <dobey> i presume the runner is the thing where i put "autopilot" in the manifest?
[22:53] <balloons> i should use the proper terms.. the virt server i guess it's called
[22:53] <balloons> adt-run [options] <source package> --- <virt-server> [<virt-server options>]
[22:54] <balloons> https://people.debian.org/~mpitt/autopkgtest/README.running-tests.html
[22:56] <dobey> that readme doesn't really answer my question :-/
[22:56] <dobey> oh
[22:56] <dobey> virt-server isn't what you meant
[22:56] <dobey> --setup-commands is?
[23:01]  * dobey builds a click and tries

[22:20] <luus99> Hello Community, I have an strange problem on Lubuntu 14.04 in the lxterminal. When I type "sudo apt-get update" everything work fine. But When I type "sudo cp -r sourcefolder /usr/share/nginx/html" I get ---> "No command 'sudo' found, did you mean: ..." . Please help me
[22:21] <ianorlin> luus99: are you sure you typed sudo right and not sduo
[22:23] <luus99> exactly "sudo" when I remove the "sudo" and write only "cp -r sourcefolder /usr/share/nginx/html" the message says "No command 'cp' found, did you mean: ..."
[22:25] <ianorlin> luus99: hmm I am not sure ?
[22:26] <phillw> luus99: how long have you had the lubuntu installed?
[22:26] <phillw> and hi CaCO3
[22:34] <luus99> phillw: It's installed fresh in January 2015. I didn't use it over the year. And yesterday I started up & updated to the newest updates
[22:35] <phillw> luus99: if you are having issues with sbin commands (like cp, sudo etc).. you have a very poorly machine.
[22:36] <phillw> I'm not sure what / how to suggest things if you do not have simple commands. Is there data on there that you need to backup?
[22:39] <luus99> phillw: no Lubunbu is on an flash drive. but I spent some time on an preparation for an owncloud test install with nginx
[22:42] <phillw> luus99: we can spend hours on trying to rescue, but my honest advice is to run an md5checksum on the install media you used (it is in the boot screen as check CD / media... sort of thing) and simply do a re-install. If the install media is okay, it would point to your HDD being on its way out.
[22:46] <luus99> ok. thank you. I will do that. bye
[22:46] <phillw> Unit193: who is Drone` ?
