Ubuntu Installation :: 11.04 Beta/LTS - Access To Second Partition Denied?
May 2, 2011
My laptop is a STAMP, 1.6GHz, P4, RAM 1GHz, onboard Intel sound/video etc. There were two partitions, C: drive and D: drive. I had Ubuntu 10.10 and no other O/S installed.
I installed 11.04 Beta from a Live CD Alternate last week and have since upgraded a couple of times to what must now be the LTS. Lots of good stuff and it's why I'm a committed user. I have two problems:
In the install, I kept the two, almost equal partitions (each about 36GB) as well as the Swap of about 3.3GB. The previous format had been Ext4 and NTFS; I now reformatted and made them both Ext4.
The C: has of course all the system and apps, with the basic folder structure HOME, etc. In trying to set up certain programmes to 'Save to' the D: - or indeed just trying to copy/move anything into it, I get: - "Error ... Access denied. Could not write to ... etc. OR ... etc does not exist"!
I've checked under the 'System/Administration/Users & Groups/ Users Settings/Group Settings. For Root, I've entered myself - who should have anyway had Administrator privileges. Also rebooted, but still no change.
What must I do to get use of my D: drive?

I mount a partition to a directory and ls -liah tells me that everyone has read/write/execute permissions on the whole thing, but I try to save a file into the partition and I get an access denied error. First of all this doesn't make sense because ls is telling me I do have access.
Then it gets weirder. I run sudo chown -R me:me directory. The command exits without error, but then when I go and look at the directory again with ls, it still shows up as owned by root and I still have the same problem. This is particularly strange because I am still able to change permissions normally in the operating system filesystem. It just won't work on the mounted partition.

When I run out of space on my Ubuntu partition, which will probably happen with me being the untidy person I am, is there a way to resize the partition in Windows or Ubuntu that will allow the other to boot? As I've heard stories of using Gparted to resize a Windows partition doesn't allow Windows Vista to boot up as it removes a crucial part of the operating system? I have adequate space to give to Ubuntu on my NTFS partition. May I also add that to install Ubuntu I had to use the partitioner that came with the installer, because the Windows Disk Manager wouldn't let me partition the NTFS drive, because it Denied my Access.

I have 9.10 installed and working like a charm, due to the problems I had last time, I decided to leave an empty space to try and test upcoming editions, but I can't install it!
I get two error messages and can't get past the point of partition assignment.
Here's the screenshots. I'm trying to install on the free space.

Windows clients experience an issue of being unable to create folders inside the new share I setup. I do not want any share security on this folder since its a global share that our entire office houses client information. They can view the contents but not add it.
My smb.conf has the following settings on the share
[global]
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
passwd chat = *Entersnews*spassword:* %n
*Retypesnews*spassword:* %n
*passwordsupdatedssuccessfully* .

So here's the schedule for 10.04:
April 8th, 2010 - Beta 2 release;
April 22nd, 2010 - Release Candidate;
April 29th, 2010 - Final release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
If I have 10.04 beta 1, could I just continue to update and not have to burn another disk to install? Or do I have to burn the beta 2 and reinstall if I want it?

I'm installing Ubuntu 10.04 for a friend, dual booting it with windows vista. The installation was going just fine up until the 4th step- partitioning the drives. After designating space for vista and ubuntu and running it, it popped up the window and displayed 0%... for the next hour. After looking around on ubuntu forums for a solution, I tried manually partitioning the drives in vista. Vista wouldn't let me, saying that access was denied. I tried using gparted next, which had an error with it as well. Does anyone know what i can do to work around this?

I'm having a problem with my webdav share. I have a secure webdav folder that gets accessed via a non-standard port and requires basic authentication. I can connect and interact with it fine via cadaver. However, when I try to connect from nautilus, it says "Access was denied." To make it even stranger, sometimes I can click on the folder in nautilus (it still mounts) and access it. Sometimes not (just repeats the error message and won't show me the contents). I may not even un-mount it, but just look at other folder, then click it again and be able to access it, but again - only rarely.
I asked a friend to try connecting from his windows vista computer and it would not work. It would not work from my windows XP virtual computer either. However, it mounts and works just find from my work computer (also Windows XP).
So it seems to be a 50/50 chance that the drive will mount on any given computer/system and work. Do anyone know what the problem may be? I'm guessing user permissions, but I can't figure out what.
I've made sure the webdav folder is owned by www-data and www-data has read access to the password file as well.
When I try connecting from nautilus, I get this in the log file:

I configure named and stumble upon the following problem: named is serious about user rights, every config file named uses should be named:named. I set rights to named:named as follows, but they get changed to root:named when I restart named as root. The same thing happens with SELinux context. This results in access denied type errors.

I have two external hard drives. One is a 2.5" 80GB USB HDD and the other is a Seagate 3.5" USB 500GB HDD. Both hard drives are mounted properly and I can access the data on both hard drives. I can access the small 80GB HDD via ssh from another computer and delete files, but when I try to access the 500GB drive via ssh it says access denied. When I try to access it with root, I can access it but I cannot see any files listed.

I have a linux domain (FEDORA CORE 1) and two laptop's which are part of my domain with windows xp pro service pack 2.I have given two ip's to both the laptop's being primary as global and secondary as local.I have configured printer in one laptop and shared.Till last week i was accessing that shared printer from my other laptop and every thing was working fine.Last week i formatted one laptop,(which dose not have shared printer) from then onwards i am not able to access my other laptop. I get the following message when i try to accessmy other Laptop,"you might not have permission to use this network resource. contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permission there are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request"P.S : If i have only local IP i am able to see both the systems and i am able to access my printer, this problem comes only when i add global IP to both the machines.And also i have stopped the firewall and other things.

I installed Ubuntu using the WUBI.EXE installer and everything worked fine until I forgot to uninstall Ubuntu before I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate. Now I am running Windows 7 and cannot access Ubuntu or get rid of it. So I have a partition on my harddrive with memory I cannot access. I want to somehow get rid of Ubuntu and give that memory back to Windows. [I can see the Ubuntu boot option but I cannot access it]. Upon selecting the Ubuntu option (Windows is the boot manager BTW) I get this message.....
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings and click "next."
3. Click "Repair your computer"
If you do not have this disc, contact your computer administrator or manufacturer for assistance.
File: /wubidr.mbr
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
However Windows Runs fine, I just cannot access Ubuntu.

I've created few new ext4 partitions and weird things started to happen.First I couldn't open neither the new partitions nor my USB pen drive even though they were listed under "Places". Nautilus simply wouldn't open. After some time it resolved itself and I could open all of them.But then I couldn't create a new folder nor copy any files to that partitions (error: permission denied).

I am trying to use Skype beta on my acer aspire one with ubuntu 10.10. The video runs brilliantly and i can also here my wife from the other end but she cannot hear me. Apparently something is fishy with my mic input. I tried alsamixer and everything is in unmute. My alsa version is 1.0.23. The only think she hears is a loud hissing noise which is normally my bat voice but she doesnt need to know that. I can record my voice in the sound recorder but nothing comes out in Skype!

Setup an Ubuntu LAMP server to house a Wordpress site. Everything is gravy but I am having some troubles getting emails to route outside my local network. I have setup Internet and also added my ISP SMTP as a smarthost - either way I get the dreaded Relay Access Denied 5.7.1.
I am using DynDns as I do not have a static IP - not sure if this makes a difference?
telnet my_dyn_dns.org 25
ehlo localhost
250-my_dyn_dns.org
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
[Code]....
I have also tried the above with my ISP smtp IP in relayhost - same error.

Using Ubuntu 10.04
I am trying to use the network printers shared within my University's AD domain. In Windows XP, I simply went to 'run' and typed "\[domain]", then it asked for my ID and passwords and list of printers came up from which I could just pick and add to my printer list. How can this be achieved in Ubuntu 10.04?
What I tried:
System->Administration->printing->Add->Network Printer -> Windows printer via Samba -> Browse, then I see the domain but when I input my id, domain name and password, access is denied...

I recently installed 64-bit Ubuntu Maverick. This was a clean install as opposed to an upgrade. Since the install I have been having a heck of a time getting a remote filesystem mounted via nfs. The file system I have been trying to mount is located on my HDX-1000 media server. This machine is running a flavor a linux as it's operating system, and I have been using it for about 2 years now. I have been able to mount it's filesystem on all other machine in my house which include Windows 7, and a couple of earlier versions of Ubuntu linux. But I just could not get it to mount using Maverick. I kept getting the "mount.nfs access denied by server while mounting ..." message. Finally, I found a list of all the different parameters that can be specified on an entry in the fstab. The one that worked for me was simply to change the fstab entry from this:
Code:
HDX-Server1:/share/media/HDX-Server1 nfs rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr
to this:
Code:
HDX-Server1:/share/media/HDX-Server1 nfs rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr,nfsvers=3
That is one more little gremlin down. Just 34,689 to go.

I've set up Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS 64-bit. I've set up zfs-fuse and created a zpool named 'data' which contains two 2TB WDC Green HDD's in raid1 (mirror). I've set up an NFS server to share the pool. So far so good. But now, I want to write to the pool. It has occurred to me that I need to be root to do that. On the server, this is not a problem (sudo cp...) but on my laptop I can not copy anything to the pool because I'm not a superuser.
