Debian Configuration :: Dmraid Device Fails To Mount After Jessie Upgrade

Oct 18, 2015

I eventually gave up and migrated to mdadm. Works just fine. Having upgraded to jessie and solved one problem

[URL] ....

I find the next one. When I boot into jessie my RAID device (just a data partition not /) is not found causing the boot to fail as per problems reported here

[URL] ....

After booting I can mount my RAID device but if it's in the fstab when booting it fails. Also, I notice that some of my lvm device names have changed. After a bit of hunting around I found a couple of solutions pointing to running dmraid as a service during boot and changing the entry for the RAID device in fstab to use the UUID.

[URL] .....

This seems to work. However this seems to be a workaround and as the lvm device paths for my / and /usr partitions have also changed, I'm wondering if there is a bug here as mentioned in the second link?

The / and /usr paths changed to /dev/dm-2 and /dev/dm-3 from the /dev/mapper/ form.

Debian :: X11vnc Fails After Jessie Upgrade

Jan 18, 2016

Using x11vnc server on Debian host, and TightVNC viewer client on Windows 7. All was working fine until a server host upgrade, from Wheezy to Jessie. Now, when I try to connect, TightVNC retrieves the certificate as normal, compares and accepts it, and starts stunnel. The next step would normally be to prompt for the VNC password.

Instead it gives an error:

ReadExact: Socket error while reading.

I'm guessing that some thing is missing or misconfigured after the Jessie upgrade, which broke many other things too, as Debian upgrades always seem to do. I have removed and reinstalled the x11vnc package, no effect.

The errors in the log file don't mean a lot to me.

The server is started with this command:

Code: Select allx11vnc -ssl -display :0 -usepw >>vnc-log 2>&1 &

If I start it up without the -ssl flag, and connect from the Windows system with a different client (Mobaxterm) it all goes well.

Relevant part (tail) of the server log file:

Code: Select allThe SSL VNC desktop is:  myhost:0

Debian Configuration :: Update-initramfs Fails When Upgrading To Jessie

Oct 17, 2015

I'm just completing an upgrade from wheezy to jessie and get the following error

Code: Select allProcessing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.120) ...

With a message like this I'm wondering if it's safe to reboot as well as how to resolve.

Is this somehow related to the change to only update the microcode on boot as reported earlier in the upgrade?

Debian Configuration :: Udev Static Device Change From Wheezy To Jessie

Sep 9, 2015

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 Configuration :: Jessie WD Disk Mount Fail

Aug 20, 2015

A few days ago I upgraded from debian 7 to 8. First I update, upgrade and dist upgrade - change source list and again update, upgrade and dist upgrade.When inserting a USB disk on key, it works okay. When plugging my WD "My passport" backup USB disk it does not work. The automatic mount works, but the disk can be accessed.I tried to do it manually in a format that worked on debian 7..Manual mount fails too.

umount My passport

updated my jessie by apt-get dist-upgrade and there was an error said there was something wrong with some database, and I needed to run some command, but after the upgrade I forgot to run the command. After I rebooted my system I found there was not any password needed for a normal user or the root. But if I change to the emergency mode, a root password is needed.

Debian Configuration :: Jessie Upgrade Broke NTFS Drive

Sep 22, 2015

I had a Linux server with Wheezy, I have 2 internal drive, one for linux OS, the other our Video On Demand drive that must be accessible to Windows and online. (That's why I chose NTFS, with our large video files, FAT will not work, and EXT isn't compatible with windows sharing, and I haven't gotten FTP to work right .

So I upgraded to Jessie today, and everything went smoothly until I tried to access my NTFS drive. (Named WowzaStorage)

I used FSTAB to auto-mount the drive (/dev/sdb1) to /media/ntfs/ on boot. All of this worked swimmingly on Wheezy, but since the update, something got mucked up and I cannot figure it out.

When accessing the mounted NTFS folder in /media/ (if it even shows up) gives me a 'Cannot be found' 'Input/Output error'

When in gParted to examine the drive, I can select it and view all the correct info, but I keep getting "error informing the kernel about modifications to partition /dev/sdb1/ --invalid argument"

Now first I thought maybe the NTFS driver was faulty and I removed 'ntfs-3g' and reinstalled it.

Now when I am in Terminal, after i umount and mount sdb1, I can CD to the drive but not the folders on it... Also using the File Browser, I get errors, and missing folders.

I get "Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '/media/ntfs': Input/output error"

Debian Configuration :: Jessie Upgrade Ssh Command Line Reboot

Nov 13, 2015

I've upgraded a server on our LAN from fully functioning Wheezy to Jessie. All seems fine except remote administering using Putty from my windows workstation when issuing reboot from command line, it goes down and reboots but stops at login prompt asking for username and password and does not come back on the LAN network. This server does not normally have a monitor or keyboard so my ability to remote admin this server in effect is disabled.

If I log on, it will come back on the LAN network. I've checked the logs but can't see any errors. Is it in the configuration of Jessie somewhere or perhaps a Grub issue. I have 5 other production Wheezy servers that I intend to update to Jessie once I understand how to deal with this problem.

Debian Configuration :: Samba Denies Login After Upgrade To Jessie

Jan 2, 2016

I just upgraded to jessie and now Samba won't let me log in anymore. I merged smb.conf manually. It now looks like this (removed comments):

Code: Select all[global]
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   dns proxy = no
   bind interfaces only = no
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 1000
   syslog = 0

[Code] .....

With smbclient logs as follows:
Code: Select allsmbclient -L 192...

Enter user's password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL

If I provide a wrong password, it raises NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE, also if retry with the correct password.

Not sure about what resolved the issue. But after I purged samba, reconfigured it, added the users AND set www-data's shell to bash again (which was changed during the update), it now seems to work

Debian Configuration :: Courier Including SSL - No Shared Cipher After Upgrade To Jessie

Feb 26, 2016

I had a pretty much standard installation according to some tutorial (I don't remember, which one) for courier, including ssl. After upgrading from Wheezy (7) to Jessie (8) everything continued working fine, excep ssl connections to pop or imap.

In the log I get this error message while connecting to imapd-ssl:

Code: Select allFeb 26 20:16:22 mx imapd-ssl: couriertls: connect: error:1408A0C1:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:no shared cipher

First I thought there got some chiphers removed from default configuration. But even when I try to allow all protocols and all ciphers:

Code: Select allTLS_PROTOCOL="SSL23"
TLS_CIPHER_LIST="ALL"

And then test via s_client:

Code: Select all# openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:993 -cipher ALL
CONNECTED(00000003)
3073349308:error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure:s23_clnt.c:770:

---
SSL handshake has read 7 bytes and written 341 bytes
---
New, (NONE), Cipher is (NONE)
Secure Renegotiation IS NOT supported

---

TLS over STARTTLS is also not working and does not invoke a log-entry. So I want to solve the ssl-problem first. I guess the STARTTLS-problem is automatically solved then.

My update procedure was:

Debian Configuration :: Printing From Windows After Upgrade To Jessie - Samba Seems To Crash Completely

I can print a test page from Cups without any problems, but when I try and print from windows, Samba seems to crash completely and is constantly writing these messages to the logs. Then I lose access to the other shares, presumably while it repeatedly crashes.

Debian Configuration :: 7.2.0 - Mount WiFi Device Just After Pushing Firmware

Jun 18, 2015

Working on Debian 7.2.0.

In a specific context I want to automatically make operationnal some USB WiFI devices, deploying automaticaly firwmare (may be not free packages) depending on device ID (vendor ID/product ID). Dev device is a Netgear WNA1000 (driver ath9k, with htc_9271.fw firmware).

I tried to reset the USB bus (modprobe -vr ehci_hcd; modprobe -v ehci_hcd) but it's not really reliable, with sometimes kernel panic.

Is there an "official" way to "mount" the device (the system create the device wlan0) just after deploying the firmware? Maybe using udev ?

Debian Configuration :: Cannot Mount Drive After Upgrade To Lenny

Jan 17, 2010

Basically, I have no trouble booting off a really old kernel like 2.6.18-6. If I try to boot off the newest one installed with Lenny, I get errors such as "mounting /dev/ on /root/dev failed...ditto for /sys on /root/sys" almost as if it's failing to find the drive. This finishes up with "target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init" and I'm dropped into a busybox shell.It's an ordinary SATA drive, which is being used as an OS drive only. It seems as if something has changed with the newer kernel, but I have no idea where to start or what to look for.

Debian :: MAC Spoofing In Jessie Fails

Feb 23, 2016

I keep most of my files on my server, but fiddle with them using NFS from one or another of my laptops - so they all have static IPs assigned by my router. If I want extra speed I plug in an Ethernet cable. My old DI524 wireless G router seems quite happy to have two MAC addresses (Ethernet and wireless) assigned to the same static IP, so long as I don't try using both simultaneously. However three Wireless N routers I've tried won't allow this, nor will dd-wrt.

I really don't want to have to set up every laptop as two separate hosts on my network. 'orrible complications.

Best solution I can think of is to get the Ethernet card to spoof the wireless MAC address with e.g. macchanger, as per this excellent page here: [URL] ....

I don't mind running a script manually to do that on each occasion.

This works perfectly on my old R50 Thinkpad running Debian Squeeze, but on my R60 (running Wheezy) and T400 (running Jessie), macchanger works initially, BUT as soon as I hit 'enable networking' in the Network Manager applet, the ethernet card reverts to its original setting. So of course then my router allocates a random IP and so NFS won't work.

Exactly the same goes for the iproute method 'ip link set dev eth0 address [fakemac]' - ifconfig shows it's worked, but it reverts as soon as NetworkManager goes back up.

I don't know where Network Manager (if it is that) is getting the Ethernet card's original MAC from, it seems to be listed in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, so on the T400 (Jessie) I've even tried creating a file in /etc/udev/rules.d/75-mac-spoof.rules along the lines suggested in that archlinux page I mentioned -
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="[original MAC]", RUN+="usr/bin/ip link set dev %k address [fake MAC]"

but it seems to have no effect.

Short of reverting to Debian Squeeze on all my laptops, I don't know what else to do. Or getting into my router and reassigning the IP / MAC address by hand every time (!).

(If there's a better way to swapping easily from wireless to Ethernet when required, I'd like to know.)

OpenSUSE :: Device Notifier Mount Fails?

Jul 16, 2011

I'm using OpenSuse 11.4 (x86_64) with KDE 4.

It's not possible to mount external USB (ntfs) disks with a non-root user using the Device Notifier or Dolphin. The error is:

Could not mount the following device: MyBook 2

org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.PermissionDenied: Authentication is required

It is a permission problem; running Dolphin under root and clicking the USB disk mounts it without problems. The same should be possible to an ordinary user. The Update Applet does not work for the same reason (I can only install updates using yast).

Of course, I googled the error and there were a number of possible solutions, which I all tried. That includes allowing the action in the policy and adding the user in AdminIdentities local-authority. The file /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy contains "yes" for every option. Needless to say it doesn't make sense and I'm out of options.

Debian Installation :: Jessie 8.3.0 Installer Fails To Load Software

Mar 10, 2016

I am trying to clean install Jessie 8.3.0 onto an old PC, where I already have wheezy 7.7 working. I am using the 3 DVD- i386, which passed the integrity check.

Installation goes on smoothly till completing the "Select and Install SW" stage from 1st and 2nd DVD. At this point I get the warning that "Installation step failed, ..", giving the choice to repeat.

When repeated, the process gets completed (without asking for 2nd DVD), the new installation boots normally, but the KDE desktop opens irregularly, with some basic applications missing, and some flaws during certain operations.

The APT does not show any missing/broken link. I tried and repeat the installation with different choices as for kernels and/or desktops, but got the same result. I cannot guess where the problem originates, nor whether it is a known bug of the installer.

Debian :: Bluetooth Headphones In Jessie 8.0 As Output Device

Mar 24, 2015

After a lot of messing around and research, I figured out how to actually get my bluetooth headphones to connect and stay connected. Although once I shut them off, remove the device and re-add it using Blueman.

Right now, `pavucontrol` shows "Headphones (unplugged)" and there is no sound coming out of the speakers. But there is no sound coming out of the headphones either. They are set to the fallback. I've opened `alsamixer` and made sure everything was turned up. Still, no sound.

Since `bt-audio` isn't on Jessie, I don't know what I should do. It seems like this may be the missing step but I am unsure.

Debian Installation :: No Bootable Device Jessie Fresh Install

Mar 5, 2016

I am having a problem with my new Toshiba Satellite Laptop... I had installed debian for some time but last week suddenly stopped working.

- the computer stopped working at all... nor bios access.
- I did a new bootable installation in USB drive and downloaded the latest debian iso from official website and created the bootable device via dd as usual.
- I installed the new debian but after I removed the usb drive in order to boot into my new system. I was taken to a screen saying "Start PXE over IPv6 -- Start PXE over IPv4 ..." I followed several links looking for a fix, and all of them lead me to disable network boot option in BIOS setup...
- I disabled but after that it appears a new message "No Bootable device -- Press restart system" and nothing happens from there.
- I have found info in Internet regarding this issue, but all I find is "windows related"
- Someone recommended me this: "The BIOS can no longer recognize the hard drive as a bootable device. This could be for a number of reasons. Your best bet, if it is still under warranty, is going to be to bring it back to where you purchased it"
- But instead, what I did was to create a new bootable device, this time containing XUBUNTU and installed it to the machine, I had the good news that the installation proceed without any problem, so I could figured out that my machine it is still alive...
- Back to my issue and hoping that something unexpected happened that fixed the machine, I got back and did a new Debian bootable device, also hoping that the latest was corrupted or something, but after reboot to my new system... the problem persisted again.
- I chose to have 1 partition in full disk.

Now I don't know what else to do... I don't like ubuntu, I have used debian for some years and I want to keep using it and I would not like to be forced to move to ubuntu or xubuntu for this.

Debian Configuration :: Jessie - How To See What DNS Servers Are Actually In Use

Sep 24, 2015

I am running Jessie 8.2, upgraded from Wheezy about a week ago.

KDE Desktop, static IP
NetworkManager.conf shows:
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=true
dns=none

The dns=none is to keep NetworkManager from overwriting /etc/resolv.conf (which shows):

nameserver aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
nameserver aaa.eee.fff.ggg
nameserver aaa.hhh.iii.jjj
search mydomain.com

It seems like ifconfig used to show which DNS servers were being addressed, but something has changed, I need to know whether I am referencing what I think I am... I have search this forum, googled, and come up empty... did the metrics go away with 8.2? Was I dreaming at 7.5?
