Software :: How To Stop Services Printing Messages To Terminal
Jan 6, 2011
Every now and then on my non-graphical console-orientated Debian Squeeze system, some services see it fit to spill their juices all over what I am doing.
A message about a service stopping/starting/restarting prints at the location of my cursor ontop of whatever I was doing at that moment, forcing me to either redraw ( if the currently running application supports it ), background and then foreground what I'm doing or clear the screen if at the shell.
Code:
* Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd
* Restarting advanced system logger rsyslogd
How can I stop these messages appearing? Even better would be to send them to /dev/tty8 where I've configured rsyslogd to write.

Mandriva-2009.1 tries to install a package called Task-Printing-Server every time I power up my PSC-1401 All-In-One (multifunction) printer. This is very annoying & I want to stop these pop-up messages.This printer uses the hplip package (PSC_1400.ppd for printing & hpaio for scanning) & everything works fine except for those annoying pop-up messages.

I am working on a notebook which has both gnome and wmii. I am trying to find a way to script stopping various services when booting into wmii however the "service xxx stop" requires sudo..Is there a way to allow a user to manage services without the need for sudo (aside from password-less sudo)? I assume there are permissions complications with writing the PIDs, etc. Is there a 'simple' solution? Even possible passwordless sudo just for the 'service' command?

I have several services set to start in init 3 on a cloud provider. The init scripts appear to be in the correct folder but the services are never started after a reboot. I finally watched the console and all the services start correctly then shutdown after a few moments.

Just installed 5.3/gnome.I am on pc/desktop with only wired internet connection via routerto dsl-modem. The OS sets-up the "eth0" automatically.For just this type of setup what services can I disable and uncheck ? In System>Admin.>Services I unchecked and disabled bluetooth,isdn,pcscd and sshd. Should I disable sendmail, avahi-daemon, portmap,rpcidmapd,rpcgssd and.apmd(no laptop)? Goal is to minimize unneeded services and improve security. The wiki article on securing CentOS did not cover this.Under System>Security Level Configuration I allow ftp,Mail(smtp), and WWW(HTTP). Is the ftp allowed ok for my pc/desktop?

Xubuntu 9.10 on a DELL Inspiron 1150.I have a problem with intermittent dropping of my wireless connection ( see Belkin 7010 thread).Once dropped, the wireless will NOT reconnect (It just sits there saying "connecting" but never does) Same happens if I manually disconnect - I can never re-connect. On rebooting it will reconnect fine & all is well for sometimes 4 hrs.How can I kill all wireless services & restart them without having to reboot the laptop?

With the advent of Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx LTS People are migrating servers to the latest LTS. One fundamental thing that has changed is the move to Upstart. In the old days to stop multidaemon service such as Samba, one would simply type /etc/init.d/samba stop and to disable it from starting on boot one would simply type update-rcd samba disable.
Now its the year 2010 and in 10.04 it seems on has to edit a bunch of files, etc. Is there not an easy tool to correctly and properly disable services on startup in 10.04 consistently? in Redhat/Mandrake 10 years ago it was simply
Code:
service smb off
In Ubuntu 10.04 its
1) edit /etc/init/smbd.conf and modify the line that says
Code:
stop on runlevel [!2345]
and change it to
[Code]...
And one has to remember all these changes when the get ready to enable the samba service in the future? This can't be right.I know I must be missing something here. or maybe overlooked something in the upstart documentation.Which seems quite sparse by the way. So the question remains. How does one simply disable a multidaemon service starting on boot such as samba. Any tool to do this ? Is the above the correct method recommended by Canonical to disable services? and enable them?

I installed MySQL and Apache2 to develop & test out the site I'm writing. However since I'll be using them purely for internal use (not exposed to the Net), I don't want them to start with every boot-up, but would like to start them manually when I desire, and stop them after use.With previous Ubuntu (Jaunty) I'd used chkconfig to configure services, but since the current version (Maverick) uses Upstart, is chkconfig still applicable?
I also installed 'bum' (Boot-Up Manager), but strangely, it displays the MySQL server as "unchecked" even though it's running (and starts at boot-up), so I cant see how I can prevent it from starting at boot-up through bum. chkconfig also displays MySQL as not active at runlevel 5, when in fact, it is.
I'd like to know what's the recommended (official) way to configure boot-up services with the Upstart system? I don't suppose directly editing the *.conf files in /etc/init is the best (or even correct) way?

When I print e-mail messages from within evolution the output comes out really ugly. Specifically the letter spacing (kerning) is very uneven with some letters squished together while others are spaced too far apart. This happens for printing to a file as well (PostScript or PDF). Attached is an example (converted to jpg). Has anyone else experienced this? I don't know if this is an issue with evolution itself or perhaps a backend used by it for output.

What is the correct way to stop upstart services from staring at boot time ? I'm doing something like this example in /etc/init/mysql.conf:
Code:
#start on (net-device-up
# and local-filesystems
# and runlevel [2345])
start on runlevel [!0123456] # I ADDED THIS LINE (and commented the above ones)
stop on runlevel [016]
1. Is this the correct way ?
2. Is there no way of doing something like we do with update-rc.d -f apache2 remove ?
3. When will ubuntu ship a gui to add or remove services from boot ?

How do I stop a printer from printing? Here's what happened- I started to print some PDF stuff and then changed my mind. The printing job hadn't finished so I just clicked on the printer icon and selected QUIT. Well, of course that didn't work so I just turned the printer off......same result- when I turn the printer back on it keeps on printing the same stuff. How do I stop the printer from continuing and delete all print jobs?

Is there a way to stop kbuildsycoca4, and klauncher from spitting messages over all over my console windows every time I start a kde program from the console? I absolutely hate it when I'm typing a command and suddenly I get a million messages from kbuildsyscoca/klauncher and can no longer see what I was typing.For examlpe redirecting kate stderr to /dev/null, you'll still get messages from klauncher, and kbuildsyscoca4. Is there a way to silence this garbage for good?

I'm using debian 5 x64 with xfce.Is there a way to configure (start/stop/restart) services (especially Apache2, mySQL and PHP) using a graphical or cli tool? I tried to use sysv-rc, sysv-rc-conf, rcconf and rc-conf in the terminal but Bash didn't find them (Although Synaptic show that sysv-rc is installed).

I'm running OpenSUSE 11.4. The problem is that I can set easily what to log (for firewall), but not where to log. And currently the same logs are written to /var/log/firewall and /var/log/messages. I still want messages be written into the first one, but not the second one — it is redundant and it is polluting regular system logs.So how to stop the firewall from writting logs to /var/log/messages?

I am trying to give access to ONE single user to start and shutdown tomcat server. The problem being, when I enter syntax: username ALL= /etc/init.d/tomcat5, /usr/local/tomcat/webapps, PASSWD:ALL This gives the user access to start and stop tomcat but also gives user access to start and stop other services within /etc/init.d - such as httpd etc... What is the proper way to give user access to start and stop service, and limiting that power to only one service....

I have been trying to install the KDE desktop via terminal services, but am failing because I have forgotten the syntax. Could some one please help? I know I did this for Gnome before, so I think it would be just as easy to install KDE with all it's dependencies.I am running Mandriva One Spring 2009 on my laptop and Mandriva Free 2010 on my desktop. I want to install KDE environment on both.

I have an older version of ggv on RHEL for viewing PostScript (.ps) files, but the binary I have refuses to open files from AFS. ggv-2.12.0 is able to open these files from AFS just fine on my Mac. I was not able to find packaged binaries for RHEL 5 or 6 for ggv-2.12.0, so I downloaded the source and compiled it. Unfortunately, it fails to start, printing these error messages:
[code]...
Does anyone know the fix? Or alternatively, is there another good and well-maintained PostScript viewer for Linux?

I want to update the percentage progress of my program on the screen. I have a progress bar that I print. I add a * when the progress is more than 10%, but I also want to write the actual percentage correct up to every digit. However, I do not want to write a new number every time, since it will have the following effect:
1
2
3
4
Instead, I would like to just maintain one single figure on the screen that keeps getting updated. How do I do that? (... in Java/C++, but I think it's irrelevant)
