Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Update Crashed Evolution Database?
Nov 30, 2010
I always install the Ubuntu Updates that automatically pop up every few days.
Today I installed the update and it wiped out my entire Evolution database.
The Evolution e-mails and e-mail history are still there, but not a single Contact.
Is there any way to 'uninstall' today's update or go back to a time before it was implemented?
Is anyone else having this problem? I do have a database backup, but its about a month old. So I don't want to import it unless there is no way to get the current version back.

I was updating Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 and my computer crashed/shutoff because of overheating(my laptop doesn't ever do this when running Windows 7 but seems to really need to be as cool as possible when running Ubuntu). the update was at about 12-18 minutes left(also i am using wubi to have it run alongside windows). After getting pissed off that i forgot to backup Ubuntu i restarted it to see if it would finish updating.
To my dismay it the loading screen looked a bit unusual and when it go to the login screen the word "Ubuntu" was flashing uncontrollably and the time in the bottom right corner was acting the same. i feel that i have totally ruined it and i also don't know how i can remove Ubuntu from my computer so that i could reinstall it as Ubuntu 11.04 instead of upgrading from 10.10. i still have Wubi.exe for Ubuntu 10.10 but i'm not sure if that just searches for the most recent version of Ubuntu.

I was updating my netbook to the 11.04 when it crashed (I thought is was on the grid, what do you think? it wasn't!) Now if I try to do it again I get a notification and then it stops.
These are the last few lines of/var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log:

I tried to update my main computer from Ubuntu 10.0 to 11.04. I wish I could remember what it said, but it crashed during the update. The lights on the keyboard were flashing on and off as well. When I try to boot, all I get is a black screen and flashing lights. The Ubuntu recover also has the same thing. I am going to try a fresh install. For some reason I am leaning to the power manager, but I am no where near sure.

I am having a lot of trouble with my computer... tried to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 on my computer, but the update crashed and then the keyboards lights just kept blinking. So I thought okay, I will try A fresh install. So I plugged up my old dinosaur and made a new boot cd. When I try to boot it, it shows that it is loading. But then the screen will go crazy, it will be a bunch of mashed boxes with funy colors sort off.can not get any responce out of it. So I try the boot cd in my old computer and everything works great.My computer specsare(custom):Motherboard = msi 785gm-e51 / 760gm-e51Cpu = AMD Phenom 2 duel core, running around 3.7 GHzRam = 2 gigs of ddr3Video card = GT240 galaxy...Geforce 200 series...An old wimpy 80 gig hardrive..Any ideas, I really like Ubuntu and usally have no problem that I can not Google myself out of but this time I can not find what I need.

When I updated Linux it crashed in the middle of the update. I think there was not enough disk space. I had a windows dual boot and tried to make the Linux partition larger but in doing that a crashed grub and can't use Linux or Windows. I tried super grub but it didn't work so I tried to fix the partitions with gparted live cd. It my disk just showed up as empty. I formatted it and re installed debian but it didn't work. I can see partitions but my computer won't boot.

So I attempted to Upgrade 2 days ago from 9.10 to 10.04. I started the upgrade and left my computer alone as it said it would take several hours. When I returned to check on it, It told me the the installation had failed and it was attempting to roll back to the previous installation. Afterward I couldn't access anything on my computer. I'd click a icon and it wouldn't do anything. I manually restarted it and was greeted with a message that it couldn't boot because there was no mount specified.
Since I had backed up all my files I tried to just reinstall ubuntu. However even after I reinstalled I'm greeted with the same message.

How can I get the mail, and contacts from the old hard drive to appear in Evolution on the new pc running Ubuntu 10.10.

It happened to me again, I guess I need to ignore those updates but somehow I forget each time! This time it froze in middle of update no mouse no kybd no cap/num locks light nothing so I hard booted after an hour of wait, now I cannot boot at all. I go thru Grub menu then it says press S to skip and M to manually load. In most cases nothing works but I got to the prompt and put the root password but I dont have an IP address and cannot get 1? I did fsck -p but no errors. It says the OS is not on / or has been gone?

The computer crashed during an update and "An error occurred". The following details are provided:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report."
So,
"michael@freegeek:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
[sudo] password for michael:
dpkg: parse error, in file '/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0117' near line 0:

My system system suffers from frequent kernel panics, which I think are due to gnome-shell with the nVidia driver. (I see no panic message and nothing is logged, but I've enabled magic SysRq and it makes no difference.) Twice this has occurred during yum-update's install stage, which is making me wonder. Uum-update then complained about an unfinished transaction, so I ran yum-complete-transaction as suggested. I've also tried yum-clean-all and rebuilding the RPM database, suggested in other threads, but I'm still seeing the following errors on yum-update:

I don't know where these 32-bit packages have come from this is an x86-64 system and the only x86-32 stuff I've intended to install is the Adobe flash plug-in. Also the later dupes are different 64-bit versions. I've tried "package-cleanup --cleandupes" as suggested in this thread: [URL]. It wants to remove the old versions, but also wants to remove packages that depend on them, including clutter, so I cancelled that. The first time round I was left with a barely usable system and had to reinstall, which I'd rather avoid, especially if this is going to be a regular occurrence. I'm not familiar with RPM (or kernel panics for that matter).

after running an upgrade chromium browser shockwave flash plugin crashed! if you have the same problem i have a workaround. firstly open firefox goto a website that uses flash (not videos) i used bbc iplayer, then right click and click on "settings..." the left most tab shows the "enable hardware acceleration" tickbox. untick it
then close and reopen chromium and go back to a flash site e.g. videos and test it is working. the reason this worked for me is that there is a bug in either googles chromium or the unix/x11 build of shockwave flash or my graphics card drivers. there seems to sevral bug reports regarding this on the net [url]. flash could be a little slower now it doesn't have the hardware accelerating it. so maybe the setting could be re-enabled in the future?

I updated squeeze last night for the first time. It worked fine after 1st reboot last night. There was one reboot stalled at "hald" so I shut down and restarted. Worked ok 2nd time around
Today,upon login I got a string of taskbar notification (which I couldnt read as they all overlapped . I was able to see a kernel error message but couldnt report it (network was down) or save it (USB stick not recognised) Some programs worked, others didnt
I have the partedmagic rescue distro on USB stick so have those programs to use in order to fix the problem. Any idea how I can repair this? I tried fdisk for the hell of it. reported clean partition as predicted. I am using debian-testing-amd64-kde.

I updated fedora 10 a few days ago, by blindly installing every update available, and when i restarted, my nvidia drivers weren't loading, and I'm having an issue I had before, where the signal being sent to the monitor is out of frequency range. Basically when fedora tries to load its GUI, my monitor just goes blank. Before I could only fix it by plugging in a different (less tempermental) monitor, and messing around with the display driver.
I was wondering if there is a way to mess with the drivers from the command line. I really don't like switching out monitors, and i want to learn the skillz and such.

This is a Natty system. I ran update manager to update to the latest releases for Natty, and it crashed. I ran it again and it told me it could only do a partial upgrade, and that I should do apt-get install -f. I did that, but apt-get told me the system was locked by another program. Not to worry I thought, I'll just reboot. So I did that, and I think Update-Manager got a lot further through the process than I thought, because my system is borked. It'll boot into Gnome, but when booting up the Boot Screen no longer shows the pretty Ubuntu Logo, but rather a line of text that says "Ubuntu 11.04".
When it gets into Gnome the keyboard and mouse more or less don't work (although the keyboard based Fn+9 and Fn+10 brightness control still works) and there is no desktop background. After about 30 seconds something crashes but I can't click on it to find out what. Going into the recovery console doesn't help either. The latest Kernel (2.6.38-7) stops moving forwards after "Begin:Running /scripts/init-bottom...done". has occurred for the second time. Luckily I still have the previous kernel, which gets to the same spot and then tells me:
"init: udevtrigger main process (390) terminated with status 1" and then "init: udevtrigger post-stop process (394) terminated with status 1".
I then get the message
"The disc drive for / is not ready yet or not present. Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery". S goes back to "Begin:Running /scripts/init-bottom...done" a second time, M brings up the message:
"Root filesystem check failed. A maintenance shell will now be started"
and then it asks for the root password and gives me a terminal. Everything seems to be there, but apt-get and dpkg both can't do anything as the filesystem is read only.

I'm running 10.3, KDE, 32bit. I am working with a fresh install. The updater stated that I had updates , I accepted the updates. At this point the updater failed in some way. It did not become a zombi but stalled. I quit the updater. Now when I try and get online updates using the sys tray updater it sais none available. When I use yast online update it has some recommended updates but does not install them. I rebuilt the rpm data base and this did not help.
How can I "reset" the updater. I believe that it thinks that it did go thru the updates and therefor cant see that they still need attention.

I'm having problems with my coding. Here is the problem: I have a database with a list of products. I can list all the products OK At the side of each product I have an EDIT and DELETE button. The delete button works fine and deletes the item. The EDIT button displays a form with all the details from the database. I can then edit this form and click on UPDATE. This is the code that I have to update the database:
$group = $_REQUEST['group'];
$description = $_REQUEST['description'];
$quantity = $_REQUEST['quantity'];
$price = $_REQUEST['price'];
$type = $_REQUEST['type'];
$type2 = $_REQUEST['type2'];
$order = $_REQUEST['order'];
$status = $_REQUEST['status'];
[Code]....
I cannot see anything wrong with this code. But when I click on UPDATE (in the form), I get Error in executing UPDATE exhausts SET group = 'Alloy Silencers', description = 'RS 125 Aprilia', quantity = '1', price = '57.00', type = 'alloy', type2 = 'all', order = '', status = '1' WHERE id = '3' query
error:1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'group = 'Alloy Silencers', description = 'RS 125 Aprilia', quantity = '1', price' at line 1I have used this code many time before in other projects without problems.

Been trying to get itunes going in unbuntu 11.04. Tried gtkpod and it kept crashing when trying to update database. Looked into itunes thru wine. I think I could load it in wine but all my mp3's are on a linux box - ext4. From what I understand, wine will look to a windows partition for the mp3's. I know windows cannot read ext4. All I need itunes for is to load and delete songs on a shuffle ipod. Don't need itunes store, etc so I don't care if that part works or not. Before I go to the trouble of itunes on wine: Is this assumption correct?

I am having a Ubuntu nightmare. I am relatively new to the whole Linux thing. I just updated my Ubuntu from the update manager today and after I restarted I keep getting the following error: Error: You need to load kernel first.
My boot menu shows the following:
GNU Grub version: 1.97~Beta4
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-21-generic
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-21-generic (recovery mode)
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-20-generic
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-20-generic (recovery mode)
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-14-generic
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-14-generic (recovery mode)
Windows 7 (loader) (on dev/sda1)
The only two that work are the last two. So I chose Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-14-generic and booted normally. From there I typed actionparsnip's suggested solution (which worked for other people on other versions): sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-2.6.31-21-generic As you see I suited actionparsnip's solution to my version. The command downloaded something and made some fixes/updates and everything and seemed to have worked fine.
The system asked me to reboot, and here I am stuck: Now the boot menue shows the grup prompt which seems like: Minimal BASH-like line editing supported... sh:grub> NOTES: I originally installed Ubuntu alongside Windows 7 using Wubi. I can paste the contents "wubildr.cfg" if this helps. I had to go back to my Windows 7 to post this.
