Software :: Cvs Checkout - Failed To Create Lock Directory
Oct 16, 2009
Code:
I found another thread similar to my question here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-issue-535818/
But I don't understand what the solution is. I believe this has something to do with the permissions on the directory im trying to check out so I did chmod 777 on subdirectory in /cvs(my cvsroot directory) and I was able to checkout subdirectory afterwards, but I still get the same error.
I just downloaded OpenOffice 3.2.1 from the openoffice.org weebsite. I followed the instructions precisely and everytime ended up in the same error message - 'error: can't create transaction lock on /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock (Permission denied)'. I am using Fedora 13.
I'm trying to build a cups server (with cups-pdf) and it's not printing (creating) the PDF output. from cups-pdf log:
Code:
[ERROR] failed to create directory (/home/testuser/PDF) [ERROR] failed to create user output directory (/home/testuser/PDF)
the lp command is being ran from SSH as "testuser", who is in the lpadmin group (as well as sysadmin, users, and about 5 other groups while troubleshooting this) I've tried creating the PDF folder as both the user, and as root but still no output file (when the folder is created the first error goes away, but the user output error remains) *note, the /home directory is a symbolic link to a separate partion (/storage) I'm still a bit green on linux, but the server is headless, and for now i'm just trying to get normal users able to print using cups-pdf
here's my cupsd.conf
Code:
# # # Sample configuration file for the CUPS scheduler. See "man cupsd.conf" for a # complete description of this file.
I have iMac 2.4GHz with rEFIT installed. I installed Unity on one of the partition. Kernel is still 2.6.38.8. I am getting error message when I run the command sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
The error message is
(gedit:2139): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: Failed to create file '/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.AC7YXV': No such file or directory
(gedit:2139): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to set the permissions of `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: No such file or directory
its look like ordinary question..i want to know how to lock a directory in such a way that it require password for unlocking(by entering to that directory)
I recently tried to upgrade to 10.04 but during the upgrade my powerpack failed. Now 10.04 has been installed but I cannot access Synaptic through the drop down menu it says "Unable to get an exclusive lock". I've tried accessing it through Terminal which works but then the only option I have is to Partial Upgrade but then that freezes at the first stage saying the old database can't access the new (or something along those lines) then that screen just remains there. Also when I minimise any windows I have open they don't appear at the bottom of the screen I have to go to multi screen to find them.
Well, I am facing problem when doing lab questions.
I must use DLXLinux bundled in Bochs (bochs.sourceforge.net).
I am required to use the /usr/local directory.
In /usr directory, there is no directory named 'local' but there is one thing called 'local@'. So, when I try to use mkdir command to create 'local' directory in /usr , there are error "cannot make directory.....".
Code: mkdir: cannot create directory `/dev/cgroup/cpu/user/5900': No such file or directory bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/5900/tasks: No such file or directory bash: /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/5900/notify_on_release: No such file or directory It seems like it's probably from this part of .bashrc:

What does this code do, why, and what's causing it to go wrong?
So I was trying to run this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade.But then it stopped working in the terminal, so i got this:E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?So then I ran this: sudo fuser -cuk /var/lib/dpkg/lock; sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/lock..Which blanked my screen. I booted to a terminal and I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade.All my files are there, I ran -ls. Any advice as to how to log on graphically again?Also-when I turn on the computer, it says the screen graphics card and the like were not detected properly.

I migrated from 11.0 to a new install of 11.3. Under 11.0 I was using Kinternet for a dialup connection through an external USB modem.Kinternet isn't available under 11.3, so I installed KPPP but haven't been able to get it to work. The modem and provider has been configured through YaST.At first with KPPP there was an error with permissions as a user. One old thread discussed how to fix this through chmod, which was successful for me.Now there is the error message 'Unable to create modem lock file'.Under configuration, use lock file is checked.
error: failed to init transaction(unable to lock database)if you're sure a package manager is not already running, you can remove /var/lib/pacman/db.lck and there was the same error when i try to install a package. I recently did a full system update could that be the problem?

I'm creating a script that creates files from svn checkout and compress them using tar.gz the script gets the repository name from command line argument i need to capture a number from the last line of the output and create a file name from it.
The svn returns output of all the file names from the repository and in the end it says: revision number xxxxx. i need to get this number and then rename the tar.gz to it. how do i save the output to a variable and get this number.
I tried install Gimp, but received: "Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?". I saw the article "Sticky: Using sudo in place of root login in Ubuntu" and guess it's relevant. And when I extract Blender it's just a bunch of inactive files. Not quitting although having trouble at the moment.
