I have an initscript that behaves slightly differently in the UK than it does in the US. Not a huge issue, but I'd like to know why and how to fix it. I imagine it has something to do with localization, but I'm at a loss as to what it could be, as it's just bash.
in the UK:
Code:
[root@server ~]# /etc/init.d/worker

in the US:

I have written an init script and placed it in /etc/init.d/ directory.What I would like to know is, will the script run automatically or we need to install the script using "install_initd" command.If I have to invoke this command manullay, what will be the best place to do this ? Can I add this to "/etc/init.d/rcS" file
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have created a simple menu driven script for our Operations to take care of the basic monitoring and managing of our production application from the back-end. Now, the script when tested in UAT environment was fine, but when deployed to production it kind of behaved oddly.hen the Operator chooses an option from the menu he is given the output and at the end is prompted to return to the main menu by using ctrl+c. In production, this return does not occur for some strange reason and the program just sits there.The session becomes unresponsive after that and I'm forced to terminated it by closing the PuTTY.I tried enabling the debug mode too (set -x) and still was not able to find any useful hints/trails as to why.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThis is my first init script, so far, it atleast starts the daemon but it fails at creating a pid, so later on I can use to, to either stop it or reload it. Here's the current code: Further more, the script returns ok that it started the pid, when in fact, the pid fails in the background, this script needs MUCH improvement, some help would be nice to fix this script. :/

I have an a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d script that I would like to start and stop my sample application. I have named my script "foo", then I can start running my application my typing $ foo start but this does not return [OK] like other scripts do and does not return to shell prompt. My application is basically like this
int main()
{
do {
printf("Hi
");
sleep(1);
} while (1);
}
What is missing from my application that prevents from returning the shell prompt?
I've been dual booting 10.10 with Windows7 for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem.
It failed to boot and got this message: no init found. try passing init= bootarg
The problem now is that it requires a Live CD session and I keep getting this: GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)
In case it matters, I didn't install 10.10 from an ISO, I just upgraded from 10.04.
I need to implement AIDE on my client machines. The builds on these machine are different, so each workstation will have its own specific db generated through running AIDE initially. It is not good practice to just leave the db on the machine, since an "attacker" would be able to view this information. However, at the same time I do not want to pull back over 100 different aide db's to the ftp server and have an update pull each specifically every time I need to run the check. The plan is to leave the db on the client machine, but encrypt it (using public/private keys). I need to be able to encrypt the file on the client machine. I will use a cron on the client to pull an update (from my ftp server) that runs AIDE. This update needs to be able to decrypt the file, use it running AIDE, then re-encrypt the file on the client.

I'm running a Debian based Linux compiled for ARM9 hardware. I am trying to auto start a process on bootup but occasionally I find that my startup script becomes empty (i.e. the file still exists but has not data). The script is located in /etc/init.d/S91-sercom

I booted with 9.04 LiveCD discovered the drive could not be mounted-ran fsck -ln and it told me the drive has no valid partition table. I have had intermittent problems mounting flash drives before this, so I'm kind of worried it might be a hardware issue.Also have files on that drive I would rather not lose, so reinstalling is hopefully a last resort.
I'm trying to write a script that will prompt the user for a username/password, then create that user/password in the right groups on all my machines. I know this is kind of a long way around to avoid a NIS server, but I like making my life more difficult.
This is what I have so far:
Code:
the script has 2 problems: The "if" functions return an error and do not compare the strings successfully. whatever password is entered does get applied properly and the user is unable to login

Could someone help a bit in that sence? Is there a willing informaticien for that few lines of code, and make a new package or update/upgrade the irda-utils. Would be so helpful for the community (often, lot of users are moving to linux nowadays..)
I'm trying to replicate the behavior of the sha1sum executable in some java code, however, in the process I've discovered that sha1sum appears to behave differently given the same input in two scenarios.
Assume input of '12345' without the single quotes and with no newline.
If I put this data into a file (file1) and run sha1sum from the command line:
However, if I do this, I get a different result:
Using the apache commons-codec jar, I'm able to read in file1, get it's contents, and perform a .shahex() on the content and get the first result. However, I need to get the second result (due to legacy code) and I can't figure out why sha1sum is behaving differently, or what grep is doing to the input.
The system is running CentOS 5.4 with sha1sum 5.97
Some time ago I optimised my fonts following dugan's great tutorial. I mostly used Seamonkey to browse so I didn't notice the difference until today I ran Firefox. The font preferences seem to be identical, yet the fonts look differently on each browser. See the attachments (the browser on the left-hand side is Seamonkey)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to generate MD5 hashtext within gnome-terminal that will match that generated by PHP running on a live web server. However, when I hash the same text I get completely different results!
Code:
<?php md5('testing123') ?> ===> 7f2ababa423061c509f4923dd04b6cf1
bash$ echo 'testing123' | openssl md5 ===> bad9425ff652b1bd52b49720abecf0ba
Could this be a character set problem? My terminal is running UTF-8, but even if I change it to ISO-8859-1, the hashtext that's generated is the same. Also tried using md5sum with a text file, saved in various character encodings, but still got the same [wrong] hashtext. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, tried running the local hash in both gnome-terminal 2.28.1 and the CTRL+ALT+F1 console.
Now I tried installing the KDE destop enviremont, the install went just fine but when I try to log into KDE I see the startup screen for a second then everything goes dark.It stays that way in the background i think the desktop is there because the mouse cursor is there, I can move it around but that's all.Does KDE work differently and so can the different xserver be the cause of KDE not working?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have plugins for viewing pdf files in both Opera and Firefox. Most pdf files opens embedded in the browser, just as I want. But there is some pdf files I am prompted to save before I can open, just as if the pdf is not recognized as a pdf ? A closer look shows that this pdf's are made using pdf-printers, drawing programs and other non-Adobe programs. It probably misses some Mime coding or other things that Adobe distiller puts into native pdf's ? How can I make the browser/system/plugin/acroread only care about the extension, and not the creator ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I ran a software in both KDE and Gnome respectively and it seems both of them have separate displays. By that I mean, one is displaying a part of the string(a Label) and the other is not displaying the string at all. I will include some relevant information such as the software uses SWT kit. Also the string is displayed perfect in Windows. If it's still not clear I will sum it up in a sentence. I am trying to display a label using SWT kit and, its being displayed correctly on Windows,partially correct on KDE(Half of the string) and not displayed on Gnome.

View 14 Replies View RelatedWhy does on some computers my terminal window have a background I can see through and on others its a solid color? I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed on 4 machines as base OS and I have many virtual machines of it also. I havent changed the terminal preferences on any of them, however on some computers the terminal background which is purple is not solid in that you can see what is in the background behind it. On others the background is truly solid purple; you can not see behind/through it.
Is there any way to change the terminal window for these machines that are displaying solid to the 'see-thru' way? Ive been using some ebooks and things and really like opening up vi/vim in the purple see-thru window that allows me to write and see the text in the background...however on some machines I can not do this because the terminal display is truly solid. ? All my computers have the same profile settings for terminal..
color = use system theme
background = Solid color
Note - I am making a distinction here between what I call see-thru and the 'transparent' setting in the terminal preferences as this seems to use the desktop background and is different from what I am talking here.

These files are all ordinary files made under Windows; the above should read "offici�le stukken", and from the command line it does, but not in cron.
I guess I need to set an environment variable, but which one?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhile I was using my computer a few days ago, the terminal stopped working properly, so I tried to reboot, and when it started up again it wouldn't boot and said "no init found. try passing init=bootarg"
This has happened twice before, so I really need to figure out what keeps happening, otherwise I can't continue to use linux. i reinstalled both times before. i think that this is caused by a process that prevents me from using the hard drive, because when I try to check the disk in the terminal or in gparted, it says Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1. Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?
Also, in the disk utility, in the lower right corner of the filesystem it has a spinning "loading wheel".(i'm not sure if that means anything)
I am using ubuntu 10.10, but am not sure what kernel I am using, but i tried a few different kernel options(there's three of them at start up). safe mode does not work either.
