Debian Configuration :: Getting Lots Of Errors When Trying To Set Static IP
Aug 14, 2015
I am trying to set a static IP for my wireless adapter (wlan0). I've been getting the error
Code: Select all[....] Reconfiguring network interfaces.... Error for wireless request "Set Encode
" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
Failed to bring up wlan0.
Done.
After using the command
Code: Select allsudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
Here is what etc/network/interfaces looks like
Code: Select allauto lo
Iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
Allow-hotplug eth0
Iface eth0 inet manual
Auto wlan0
Iface wlan0 inet static

When executing different programs varying from the Ubuntu Software Manager to pstotxt and lots of other programs I get tons of errors that have to do with Python2.6, whatever it is. I think it got corrupted since my netbook turned of while installing some (Dutch) language packs.The smaller problem, is that the language packs failed to install properly, and I can see some Dutch sentences between the English ones sometimes...The major prolem, is that somehow a lot of programs won't work anymore, mainly terminal programs. pstotxt is one of any examples. Installing software doesn't always work because of these errors.
This is the output when I want to use pstotxt to convert a .pdf to .txt file:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/command-not-found", line 8, in <module>
import CommandNotFound
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
from CommandNotFound import CommandNotFound
code....

I try to do anything in wine, including winecfg, I get a lot of errors, and the program runs really slowly. Here are the errors
Code:
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation (nil) 1 (nil) 0
fixme:win:RegisterDeviceNotificationA (hwnd=0x147f30, filter=0x84e9e4,flags=0x00000001),
returns a fake device notification handle!
fixme:advapi:RegisterTraceGuidsW (0x100778a, 0x100a060, {485e7de8-0a80-11d8-ad15-505054503030}, 1, 0x33fe28, code....
I get this error for every program, so I do not think it is an error with the program. If fixing this will change anything like making it faster any help would be appreciated. Oh, I also can only run a few programs. I can't run things like WMP or itunes, and I think this may be the cause.

When I try to install things I am getting lots of errors.
[code]...
What can I do to fix my problems? I also included a screen shot of the repositories in Software Sources. I been messing with BeachBit as Root and been toying with Ubuntu Tweak and so I think I messed something up on accident. Here is my list that I have too.
[code]...
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Our network uses static ip's and I cannot get them to work with Debian live. In fact, when I reboot, it always goes back to "roaming". What am I doing wrong here?

I moved to static Ip method for my laptop. I edited the interfaces file and it seems to work since I am writing this message from that laptop, but I have a new problem with my Debian. The mounts are not mounted during the startup anymore. Before I was using the network manager method and the nerwork mounts were all fine. Now with this method, they are not mounted and I need to mount them by firing "sudo mount -a" manually.

I'm new to the forum and actually to Debian as well. Have been running Ubuntu for the past few years. Just setup a small Dell laptop to use as a Squeezebox and Print server. It's been up 6 days without a hitch as far as serving music to the squeezebox and printing. The problem is that it loses it's static IP, so as long as I look it up and change the radio Squeezebox and printer definitions around on the clients everything keeps working.
Does anyone have any ideas?If the connection drops for some reason and the system has to re-initialize the connection, shouldn't it use the /etc/network/interfaces file and get back to the static IP that it is configured for?If anyone has any ideas of why this could be happening or have a solution, I would really appreciate the help.

I am currently in the process of moving around 20TB of data from one server to another. Security is not a concern, since the data are freely available to anyone on our network anyway. There are a couple of things that I'm trying to decide on:
(1) protocol choice
Of all the choices I have--nfs, ftp, scp, rsync, samba--has anyone done any benchmarking to show which would be the fastest/most robust transfer protocol? I know nfs has slow write speeds for synchronous transfers. Asynchronous would be faster, but less robust. I'm leaning toward rsync since it performs md5sums to confirm the file transfers. (Remember if there's a 1 in a billion chance that a byte will get corrupted, then I'll have 20,000 corrupt bytes in the transfer.)
(2) Nautilus emblems
We use emblems in Nautilus to categorize files. The old and the new server have the same directory structure.Is there any way to copy the Nautilus emblems from the old server to the new server. What I want is that if a user had marked a particular file with a star on the old server, then that file would be marked with a star on the new server when he/she logs in.

I use a static compiled kernel and a fully encrypted disk apart from a boot partition. I have recompiled and installed kernels many times. When I tried with the latest kernel from Testing, 4.2.6, the system will not boot. Not only that but the previous kernel now does not boot. However, a stock modular kernel does boot. The static kernel hangs at:
Code: Select allVolume group "dk" not found
Cannot process volume group dk
/run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: No such file or directory
WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to internal scanning.
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
/run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: No such file or directory

And after giving the password the boot continues successfully. How to diagnose it further?

compName:/home/usrName# apt-get update
I don't have this problem when I take this laptop to work and connect to the network there, so I thought it must be a problem with the way my modem/router is configured. But when I turn off the firewall, the problem persists. Actually, I'm not very knowledgeable about networking issues, so I'm not sure I'm turning off the firewall correctly, but in the config web page for my router, I go to firewall settings, pick the computer by name, and choose an option that says "Allow all applications (DMZplus mode)". I've also rebooted the laptop since changing this option and tried again with the same results.

I am using a 3rd party kernel driver that does not support udev properly. When I was using wheezy I placed the required device files in /lib/udev/devices.
The udev in jessie does not appear to support this. Is there any way to have udev create these device files or will I have to create then using a script at boot-up?

Debian Testing host, Winduhs XP guest. Winduhs is not allowed to directly access The Internets, and I am not setting up bridging as that makes it possible for the guest to mount layer 2 attacks on the LAN. I need for the guest to tunnel through the host without being able to see anything on the host, so it can then get access to The Internets, while being protected by iptables (Shorewall).
Used to be with VMware I had host-only set and the guest in a different class c (192.168.2.1) from the host (192.168.1.1) I turned on ipforwarding, set Shorewall rules, and it all worked. Now I have everything set with VirtualBox, and it does not work. Guest can ping its interface but not host. Host can ping vboxnet0. Host is supposed to masquerade guest's 192.168.2.1 through to the default out at 192.168.1.1, but it's not. I think a clue is in routing, but I don't know what's wrong.

I have Jessie in a VM. For some days I have been consistently getting errors with apt-get update, no matter if I use httpredir of ftp.us. These are the errors:
Code:
Select allErr http://ftp.us.debian.org jessie/updates/main amd64 Packages

Err http://ftp.us.debian.org jessie/updates/non-free amd64 Packages
[Code] ....
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
And this is the syntax in my /etc/apt/sources.list
Code:
Select alldeb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib

# Jessie Backports
deb http://http.debian.net/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free
Mirrors cannot be down for so long, so what is going on?

This is on my AMD64 Testing box...A couple days ago during an apt-get dist-upgrade, near the end I saw the errors below.
I haven't noticed anything broken, yet. I usually only see dkms errors when VBox squawks after an update and I run /etc/init.d vboxdrv setup.
The section of the results containing the errors to the end of the output:
Code: Select allSetting up linux-image-4.3.0-1-amd64 (4.3.5-1) ...
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms:

what the hell the error message shown below and in the attachment means? Apt-get, Aptitude, dpkg and member limiter's 3/21 post all give the same outcome. Do I need to simply remove the offending .deb file from /var/cache/apt/archives? Do I need to install squeeze from scratch? (I'm installing over a tempermental lenny-sid hybrid installation.) This thing is blocking installation and configuration of 28 other packages.
Code: dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libx11-dev_2%3a1.3.3-4_i386.deb (--unpack): short read on buffer copy for backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/share/doc/libx11-dev/libX11.txt.gz'

My primary repos are DVD .isos on my hard drive loop-mounted in /etc/fstab. Although I can install packages just fine and there are no issues with running installed applications, I must have screwed up the configuration of /etc/apt/sources.list because I get this output when I do apt-get update:
Code: Select allIgn file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
[Code] .....
Here is my rather primitive but functional /etc/apt/sources.list:
Code: Select all# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.2.0 _Jessie_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20150906-11:13]/ jessie contrib main
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.2.0 _Jessie_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20150906-11:13]/ jessie contrib main
deb file:/dvd1 jessie main contrib
deb file:/dvd2 jessie main contrib
deb file:/dvd3 jessie main contrib
[Code] ....
So what exactly have I screwed up?

Why I can install amd64 programs and why I get unknown for the uname -p command?

It's trying to fix/complete failed installs but keeps encountering the same errors (error message below). I'm running basically Testing, but there are a few Stable and SID packages due to issues with the blasted nVidia legacy drivers. I've swapped out the video board with an ATI board so that is sorted, but now I can't do any updates. Hoping there is some way to manually override apt's determination to try to fix all broken packages whenever I do anything (install, remove, update, etc). A Google search of this error message didn't turn up anything recent. Any thoughts are welcome.

I recently installed Squeeze. Almost every time I install software I have unresolvable dep errors. In my Software Sources Everything is checked Main, Contrib, Non-Free and source. But in 3rd party the only thing in there is the installation CD. Is this correct or am I missing repos? downside of running testing? If I'm missing them could someone please post what repos I should have...

I have been running happily on Knoppmyth R5F27 (on Debian GNU 4.0/Etch) for a good long time. Everything has been operating well. My kids get to record their Mythbusters. Life is good. Tonight, though, I tried to make things better. And that was the mistake.
I read that we could use our PS3 to watch videos on Hulu. But, I needed a kind of proxy server or something to mask that I was using the PS3 browser. So, I thought I would install squid on the myth box.
I first tried apt-get install squid But, that didn't quite work. So, at a friend's suggestion, I ran: apt-get update Which had problems, too. Still, being a noob, I reran the apt-get install squid and a bunch of stuff came down. It has problems, too.
So, I turned back to apt-get update and realized there was a problem in sources.list. I updated it to have a more current repository and received the update. Then I realized that the apt-get for squid was pulling down resources for lenny. I struggled trying to kill the install for Squid. Failed. And then rebooted just to see if I have problems.
And I do. Mythbackend won't start. The command to do so produces a segmentation fault. Ditto for mythfrontend and mythtv-setup. I don't know what to do. Can someone help me roll this back to a stable setup of Etch? If you want to see my (very messy) attempt to install squid and update the system you can look at[URL]..

While I had the case open to swap out a network card I thought I would drop in an old USB card (previously used with no problems on a machine running Debian) however on boot I'm now getting some errors showing up. The card has been sitting around for a while so it could be an issue with the card.
