Ubuntu Installation :: Server ISO 9.10 Broken ?
Mar 22, 2010
I've just downloaded Ubuntu server (ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64.iso) and the automatic installation fails with the following message: Failed to retrieve the preconfiguration file
The file needed for preconfiguration could not be retrieved from file:///cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-server.seed. The installation will proceed in non-automated mode.
The seed files are on the CD, in the right place, but they aren't readable even when accessed from another computer (less says 'read error').

apache2: Syntax error on line 204 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into server: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: undefined symbol: gzopen64 Have been running ubuntu server for about 6 months on a rickety but reliable AMD1.2GHz laptop (hp compaq nx9005) Had successfully deployed a UPS and various CGI scripts. Familiar with the basics of apache tomcat and even dabbled with some mods. All was running sweetly until I performed an upgraded yesterday which took me to Kernel (from uname -a) 2.6.31-22-generic-pae #70-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 00:54:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
During the upgrade there were libraries which apache2 depended upon and the process halted. Have brute forced some other libraries - given there were 87 packages in the upgrade and it had got to 78 - I did not dare roll back - so pursued further until I finally noticed the message above

I'm a PHP developer trying to switch from Windows to Linux. So I'm new with Linux. I tried to google for a solution and tried the suggested wiki FAQ but with no success.I wanted to install zend-server-ce-php-5.3 today with yum. This worked okay.After this I tried to install php-5.3-extra-extensions-zend-server. This seemed to work.

I've been trying to fix this problem for quite a few days now and have done a lot of searching on these forums, Linux Mint Forums and some others Google lead me to and have has some success, but am now stuck.I have posted a thread on this same topic on the Linux Mint Forums, but have had no success (if you want check it out at:URL...Originally I received error messages when trying to update involving certain repositories which couldn't be accessed (because they either didn't exist or had been moved) and I hunted these down and changed or removed them.
I have done much searching, etc. and cannot find any broken packages. I have tried many many different commands which have mostly done nothing.I seem to be in a similar boat to this person: URL...

I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 again on my PC after a long time. Everything was working fine. No problems at all. After running all the necessary updates, I wanted to install Adobe Flash. This I did by going to Adobe's site. I selected the APT version for 9.04+. It was installing fine UNTIL there was a power cut. Since then I have been trying out various methods of repair suggested in these forums. But again and again get the same message:Quote:

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

I decided to install a dual boot on my Sony Vaio recently.Installation has not gone well.I attempted to install latest version desktop 10.10 with a CD. I was able to choose a language, then screen went black. I heard some music after a few minutes but no video. I was eventually able to boot the system several times under recovery mode. Several other forums and posts suggest that the problem was with my Vaio graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 230M).After the initial dual boot screen, where I'm able to choose operating system, if I choose either Ubuntu or Ubuntu safe mode a bunch of text scrolls by and ends with.

So I am using 10.04 and was trying to get gitosis working on my machine so that I could use it over ssh. Anyways I'm not sure what happened (as I did this a month ago) but ssh isn't working now. When I try to ssh on the box (ssh localhost) I get the below error.
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
bash: gitosis-serve: command not found
Connection to localhost closed.
First I know that gitosis-serve was incorrect anyways, but what I can't figure out is where that command is being called from. When I run a terminal from the box I don't get the error so it seems to be only ssh.

I believe that 10.04 & MYSQL Server are not compatible. My problem is that I have not been able to remove MYSQL from the system. Every thing I've tried says I have to reinstall before removing and I can NOT get anything to update. What can I do short of a hammer & chisel?

I am running somes instances of Redis. I want to get Redis stats with following command:
Code:
$ echo "info" | nc <server_IP> <port>
but sometime it returns nothing. The first thing come to my mind is broken pipe or something like this. I always get the result if telnet to Redis and typing 'info' command. I also try pipe viewer to monitor the progress of data but it didn't help:
Code:
$ echo "info" | pv | nc <server_IP> <port>

I am attempting to write a server application in C on a linux machine which listens for TCP connections and transfers data. I am trying to detecton the server side when the connection is broken. The closest thing that I got to work was looking at the return value from sending data. For example the server�s job is to mainly read data from the socket but to test if the connection is still up the server sends data periodically back to the client. I look at the return value from send() to determine if the connection is broken e.g.
Code:int ret = send(session->clientSocket, &data[sentCnt], count - sentCnt, MSG_NOSIGNAL)I found that this does not immediately return an error when the connection is broken. The reason for this is because even though the connection is broken send() is still successful because it is able to put it on the network buffer. To fix the issue I did the following things;
Code:
//set send timeout
struct timeval timeout;

After upgrading to CentOS 5.3 my sendmail will no longer deliver messages using a program in my /etc/smrsh. It fails with the message "unknown mailer error 1". This program was working perfectly before I did the upgrade using yum. Here is the list of packages that were upgraded. Does anything jump out as being the source of the issue? I don't believe that sendmail itself was upgraded:
Packages Installed:
dbus-libs - 1.1.2-12.el5.x86_64
libselinux-utils - 1.33.4-5.1.el5.x86_64
Packages Updated:
initscripts - 8.45.25-1.el5.centos.x86_64

I like PPAs. They're great. I have dozens I use. Sometimes they go down or even get deleted, and then I'm sad. Even worse, I can't figure out a straight forward way to know which one has gone down or been deleted. They all show up in aptitude update's output as [URL].. Packages". For example:
Code:
~$ sudo aptitude update
[snip]...
Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid/main Packages
Hit http://us.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-proposed/multiverse Sources
Hit http://us.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-proposed/universe Sources
Err http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid/main Packages
[Code]...
In a nutshell, this disables each PPA one by one and tries to update. When aptitude update finally succeeds (returns 0 on exit), the name of the broken sources.list file is printed to the screen. This works, but it doesn't seem like I should have to go to these lengths.Is there any way to get aptitude to report more than "one of your many ppa.launchpad.net repo's is bad, see if you can guess which one?"

We have a problem with CPU fan not spinning in Sun server. There are two very small fans attached to heatsink on CPU. We can find identically sized replacement in local electronics shop; but the problem is they all lack the third wire. I presume that if we did that, Solaris would keep alarming about fan problem.
Original fan is quite expensive (sold in pair together with heatsink), and (more importantly) cannot be easily found here. We lubricated it so it works, but that's only temporary solution, obv. So, is it possible to disable fan alarm in Solaris 10 for SPARC? If both fans die and CPU (UltraSPARC IIIi) overheats, will it shutdown before it breaks?

Morning All, I have a RHEL 4 box with a broken GNOME package. It boots to TWM. I have looked at some of the posts that recommend looking at config files etc. No .xinitrc file found. Cannot "exec gnome-session" , cannot find file. No choice at login screen. Some Gnome files are on the machine. How do download and re-install the entire Gnome-Desktop package?

I logged on to one of my servers and ran a yum update, while the update was in progress my SSH connection got disconnected.
I logged in through a new connection when connectivity was restored and looked at running processes. It looked like yum was hung so I killed it (big mistake and one I won't repeat).
Now, when I try and run yum, I get the following:
Quote:
yum update: There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
Please install a package which provides this module, or verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is:
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to the yum faq at:[url]
I have tried hunting around for the correct version of libelf without much luck.
Is there anything I can do to get yum working again?
The server is running Centos 5.2

Alright, I edited "/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server" and set "eth0" as the only thing listed for interfaces. I also have the code below in "/etc/dhcp/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf" and I even copied it to "/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf" for good measure, and I can't get the DHCP server to start. As an intermediate to advanced user, I am under the high assumption that it is broken since everything in the docs has been set. I have googled for two days and cannot find a fix, so before I report it as a broken package, would somebody with more experience with the package chime in?
Configuration file:
subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option domain-name-servers 10.0.0.254;
option broadcast-address 10.0.0.255;
[Code].....
I hid my wireless setup because it contains my WiFi network info including key. This box is routing, doing DNS resolution, and firewalling just fine. I just cannot get the friggin' DHCP server to start no matter what I try.
Oh, and is it safe to delete "/etc/dhcp" or "/etc/dhcp3"? They appear to be duplicates of each other...

I have installed a LAMP server (Debian Lenny + Apache2 + PHP Version 5.3.1-0.dotdeb.1). On this machine, my web application (PHP + MySQL) exists in 2 flavours:
- Dev
- Prod
In /etc/apache2/sites-available, I have ims & ims-dev, one for each instance. Their contents are identical in terms of settings, except for the paths (dev/prod):
Code:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@domain.com
ServerName ims.domain.com
ServerAlias ims.domain.com
[code]....
why this difference when the settings are strictly identical? Do I need to add EnableSendfile off in my conf files to stop that?

I have three machines networked to my desktop which run a bunch of simulations in parallel. As they're running, I connect to them via SSH and screen to keep an eye on the runs and look at the output. They stay usually connected for days at a time. The SSH servers and client are running Fedora 14. Yesterday one of my coworkers accidentally yanked the plug on one of the servers while it was running. When I powered it up again, I started getting some odd connection problems. I couldn't connect to it via SSH initially because I got the Remote Host Identification Changed (RSA host key changed) error. I deleted the key in .ssh/known_hosts, which allowed me to connect, but it denied my password. I then logged into that machine locally, restarted sshd, and removed .ssh/known_hosts again. Now I can log in via SSH without problems. However, the connection dies with a "Write failed: Broken pipe" error every few minutes (as opposed to the other two machines, which stay connected indefinitely).
So my questions are:
1.) why would a power loss affect the behavior of the SSH server?
2.) why do I keep getting broken pipes now?

I am currently in a country where the internet speed is roughly 15KB at best, if at all. So I cant download the 9.10 live CD. My grub2 broke when I reinstalled windows (because its so virus prone). This guide: [URL]. Says how to repair grub2 using grub2 live CD. Currently I have access to a 6.10 Ubuntu CD but when I try to mount the boot partition I get an error saying that the filesystem has unknown options. I think that the latest filesystem didn't exist back then and even if that would work. Can I reinstall grub2 using grub? Or is there any possibility to download an ultra small linux live system image with grub2? it seems all ubuntu variations come in 500MB+ packs.

So, I tried to uninstall it.
I messed up at some point. Now, most apt operations result in errors.
At the moment, this is what I get when I try apt-get -f install:

Is there any way to fix this, or is my package managment permanently broken?
I just want to get to the point where apt isn't returning errors, because at some point I will want to upgrade to 10.04. This is just too risky with broken apt.

During my recent upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04, I got a few error messages concerning the flashplugin-nonfree not installing correctly. A user named carlee helped me get flash working over on the absolute beginner forum, but I've got a related problem still unresolved.Update manager is convinced that my perfectly working flash installation is broken, and insists I update it.However, the update fails every time, telling me E: flashplugin-nonfree: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Opening synaptic, I cannot select the reinstall option for the plugin. Removal and complete removal are my only options, and both give the above error. More problematic, I cannot de-select the flash plugin entirely. It MUST be part of any other package update through synaptic (if I wanted to re-install avant window navigator, for example). And since the flash removal operation fails, synaptic is effectively non-operational.How can I convince my update manager that my fully operational flash is just fine the way it is?
