Code:

On fedora system I do a updatedb command and thereafter a simple locate to look for files and softwares. But on my ubuntu 10.10 install, when I do a updatedb, I get Quote:nishith@nishith-Aspire-4720:~$ updatedbupdatedb: can not open a temporary file for `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db'Also locate doesnot do anything, just gives back the shell prompt! what could be the issue here? BTW my install is on a usb 8 gb stick
1. I am unsure if any system changes have occured. I am sure I must have changed something, but apparently did not document it. 2. Printer does work from other computers 3 Computer was originally wireless connected, but switched to USB. This had no affect. Well I can scan now so great. 4, Printer is HP 6500a. 5. Printer has worked from this computer before 6 This is from cups error log:
D [05/Jan/2015:11:47:48 -0500] [Job 147] Set job-printer-state-message to "Can't copy stdin to temporary file", current level=ERROR D [05/Jan/2015:11:47:48 -0500] [Job 147] prnt/hpcups/HPCupsFilter.cpp 536: cupsRasterOpen failed, fd = 0
Can anyone recommend good file recovery software for Fedora? I accidentally deleted an iPlayer file (not critical) from an NTFS partition. I tried booting into Windows and using Recuva - it can find the file intact (I can see from the file size it's the correct one) but the directory structure is gone and the file is nameless. EDIT: got it back with Recuva in Windows, just needed to run Recuva as admin.
I have a many process running in my machine with similar command and the command is 'gzip'. It is running by a program in a file. How will I find out the file which is behind this command.
It is saying to make sure there is enough room in the tmp folder, so I cleaned out the entire tmp folder but the same error is still happening. Is there a way to make the tmp folder bigger? Or perhaps extract the temporary files to a different folder? Or maybe the size if the tmp folder is not even the problem?
I'm looking for a tool that can directly convert mp3 file to a swf file. Tried ffmprg - 'ffmpeg -i master.mp3 -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f swf -y -vn new.swf', output is as follows:
I found a way to perform this task using ffmpeg to convert the mp3 file to a wav file, and converting the wav into a swf file using swftools (wav2swf), although this is not a good option because the output swf file size is very big - for a 12mb input 320kbps stereo mp3 file, the swf file is 25mb. Also downloaded a free direct mp3 to swf conversion software, which had an output swf file - with the same 12mb mp3 file - of ~400kb.
The requirements I have from the tool are:
1. Can be ran from the shell.
2. Direct conversion, or an indirect one that will produce a small output swf file.
For some reason, a configuration file is being rewritten by "make" but the makefile is a bit big and I can't figure out where/when it happens. Is there a tool in Linux that would let me stop execution of "make" just before it tries to modify that configuration file? I read about inotify, but I don't know if it's the right tool.
I have a file in which I have string called "already there" in some line of it. I want that if the string is present enter some loop..
like if(( grep "already there" $file is true )) then -- -- fi
But the thing is when I make grep it gives the whole line in which this string is present and gives some error: if[ grep "already there" file ]: command not found. I am very new to shell scripting.
I have a whole bunch of songs in WMA and I would really like them in MP3. I paid for the songs and my husband really doesn't like downloading so that's not a option. I would really be upset if there were no way to get these back. I've tried to read a couple of sites but I don't understand any of it. Some people said to get Audacity but that program doesn't even open WMA...not even to import.
I'm trying to write a shell script which finds bits of data from a text file. at the moment i'm using grep and basically i need a function which will look through the text file and take the data out of it. the file has days, months, years etc and i want it so i can type feb 06 and it finds all of the data for feb 06.
the problem i have is i can type feb and all the information comes back for feb, but i can't get it more precise e.g. feb 2009 and it finds just feb 2009, it seems to ignore that latter half. I've tried experimenting with egrep and having two inputs but i can't seem to fuse them together, it only takes the first input.
I am looking for a mp3 file analysis program ( shell preferred / or X ) - something that would give me similar output as >LAME< does during the encoding phase.
Quote:
Frame | CPU time/estim | REAL time/estim | play/CPU | ETA 9342/10156 (92%)| 0:06/ 0:06| 0:06/ 0:06| 39.940x| 0:00 32 [ 80] %***
[code]....
any app that can analyze VBR/ABR filez - not just output a bogus bitrate, but return a more detailed info. LAME has a '-g' (run graphical analysis) option which has to be enabled during the compile time - tried several ways and -g is still disabled, plus there is not much info on -g and i do not even know if this is what I am looking for.
I have some music files (.mp3 and .flac) which have unmodifiable tags: After I change the tags, they revert to their original values automatically. It's not related to access permissions (using Linux) as in a same directory, with the same permissions, some files have modifiable tags and other not. Is there such a thing as "protected" or "unmodifiable" tags? Are there solutions to force modification ?
I got squid3 installed on ubuntu server 10.4. I believe it is up and running as I can browse the internet on my other computers.I followed one of the tutorials on the net and looked at others for guide as well. Everyone of them did not mentioned that we have to create the swap files. Are we suppose too? I couldn't find the location of the swap file anywhere on the server.
I need to find a Broadcom BCM4312 driver that has a .inf file extension. I cannot find one anywhere. I need to atleast once use wireless inside of ubuntu.
Basically, I am trying to locate and copy the newest .json bookmark backup in my .mozilla/firefox/w987sdg9.default/bookmarkbackups directory.
I tried this
Code:
ls -t ~/.mozilla/firefox/b1ahb1ah.default/bookmarkbackups/ | head -1
which does return the newest file, but only the filename itself. I found readlink, but I haven't gotten that to output a full path which I can then feed to copy. So, it seems to me that find might work well here, and I know how to find based on absolute dates, but not relative.
If there is a command I can use to find specific file types? Say if I want to find all the jpg's in my home folder, but they don't have the .jpg extension in the name, how would I do it? Or can I set some kind of size parameter to find them? The ones I want are all from my digicam and roughly the same size.
Once more I am playing with Linux. First it was Mandrake on an 386/33 box. Then Ubuntu 8.04 on an Athlon 64 box. And now Ubuntu 10.04 on an Athlon 64 Black. In Windows, there are beaucoup utilities, such as disk cleanup, dupe file finder, et cetera. I already know to NOT defrag a Linux HDD. Is there a need for any of the more common Windows disk utilities in Linux? FWIW - If I don't run Norton Utilities, CCleaner, and Glary Utilities regularly in Win7, I endup with gigabytes (yes, gigabytes) of trash files.
I tried to come up with a thread title that was specific without being too long or cryptic. Don't think I succeeded. In my PHP error log I keep getting this error over and over again:
Code:
EntityRef: expecting ';' at line 565, column 81
It's very odd to me that it doesn't contain any sort of stack trace or file info. I know which of my virtual hosts and therefore which directory it's coming from, and it's happened now on half a dozen different servers that this site has lived on. So obviously I'm trying to track it down and add the missing ';' to the right file. This directory has dozens of sub-directories and hundreds of files though.
This is the best I've managed to come up with so far:
Code:
find . -type f -iname "*.php" -print -exec awk 'NR==565' {} ; (I've run it both with and without the -iname filter.)
I get a very large list of files, and some of them display the contents of line 565 after them. I've checked through a number of them there, but haven't found the culprit. Is it possible to limit my "find" command to only files that have at least 565 lines? Is it possible to have it only print matches from line 565 that has at least 81 columns? How would I modify that to print perhaps 5 lines on either side (in case the error reporting is pulling a slightly different line.)
I have a program I use that downloads a file a couple times a day, but it does not name it how I want it named. So I am looking for something that i can run as a daemon that will rename the downloaded file as soon as it is downloaded to my specified directory and rename it according to my needs.
After several attempts in setting up the rc.inet1.conf using alienbob's site as a guide, I'd like to see a sample of a working setup. My setup is very simple: home router and a desktop wireless, with wpa security. Using wicd is snap, but I'm tired of dropping connections; everthing worked with slack 13.0, but this 13.1 dropping wireless connection is driving me nuts, both on the desktop and the laptop.
Is there a simple web-based solution for a group looking to securely share files online? The software needs to run on our own servers due to regulatory laws. I want users to be able to go to a web site, request an account (which I should be able to accept or reject), and upload/download/manage files in a web-based (preferably ajax-y) file manager. File access controls (via users/groups) is desirable.Yes, I know that SSH/SFTP is the 'proper' solution, but many of the users will be office workers and installing an SFTP client and configuring it is too advanced for them. Same goes for Samba+VPN setups...
I am total new to linux as I worked mostly on RTOS (symbian). My problem is, I need to find the file IOSTREAM.H and I am following commands below: 1) cd / 2) find . iostream.h ( finds the file / directory from the current path) It shows No such File or Directory
