Ubuntu Installation :: Status Database Area Is Locked By Another Process?

Apr 11, 2010

I tried to install java runtime in the terminal, and I got to the 'contract acceptance' page, and I couldn't find a way to accept and move forward, so I just closed the Terminal, killing the process. later, I went to the ubuntu software center, and tried to install java runtime using that. the status for the installation remained at 0% and said "waiting for other software managers to quit". so I exited out of software center. then update manager popped up, asking me to update several things, including installing java runtime.so I hit yes, and it said this:E:dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure-a' to correct the problem

so I ran:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade Interrupted - Unable To Access DPKG Status Area

Jan 6, 2010

I was in the process of upgrading my ubuntu system (probably the latest version, it was about a month ago) and my computer froze (it does that on occasion). I have looked around this site, and tried a few things. I assume I am supposed to use the command "sudo dpkg --configure -a" to fix it. The problem is that when I do that, I get the message "dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: read-only file system". So, what do I do now? I definitely dont want to mess up my system, but I want to fix it.

Ubuntu Installation :: Init: Dbus Pre-start Process (511) Terminated With A Status 1

Aug 19, 2010

I had been having problems with every LiveCD after 8.04.1 I tried both xubuntu and ubuntu (same internals, same results)

I ended up installing xubuntu 10.4 using the text mode installer.

The system basically works, I can not get gdm running.

dbus fails as noted above. I found launchpad bug #446971 and tried some of the work arounds with no success.

The system is an old eMachines T1120

Code:
CPU: Intel Celeron Processor 1.20GHz (w/256KB)
Operating System: Genuine Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
Chipset: Intel 810e chipset

Debian Installation :: Current Status Of Lenny / Squeeze Upgrade Process?

Apr 17, 2010

I'm starting to bump into crusty software in Lenny and am looking to upgrade to Squeeze. However, there's no release notes yet and Googling for upgrade directions yields all kinds of variations, some of which talk about "interesting" issue. Thus, my questions:

1. How hard/messy is the Lenny to Squeeze upgrade at this time?
2. Where can I find straightforward, clear directions on how to upgrade?

For quite some time, I just stayed on testing and incrementally upgraded on a regular basis, but stopped after Lenny came out because security support was suspended. Now I'd like to climb back on that train.FWIW, I originally installed Slink in 1999 and haven't reinstalled from scratch since, despite several generations of hardware upgrades.

Programming :: Python / Sqlite - Database Locked Despite Large Timeouts?

Apr 8, 2010

I'm sure I'm missing something pretty obvious, but I can't for the life of me stop my pysqlite scripts crashing out with a database is locked error. I have two scripts, one to load data into the database, and one to read data out, but both will frequently, and instantly, crash depending on what the other is doing with the database at any given time.I've got the timeout on both scripts set to 30 seconds: cx = sqlite.connect("database.sql", timeout=30.0)and think I can see some evidence of the timeouts in that i get what appears to be a timing stamp (e.g 0.12343827e10 1) dumped occasionally in the middle of my curses formatted output screen, but no delay that ever gets remotely near the 30 second timeout, but still one of the other keeps crashing again and again from this. I'm running RHEL5.4 on a 64 bit HS21 IBM blade, and have heard some mention about issues about multi-threading and am not sure if this might be relevant.

Packages in use are sqlite-3.3.6-5 and python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.1, and upgrading to newer versions outside of RedHat's official provisions is not a great option for me. Possible, but not desirable due to the environment in general.I have had autocommit=1 on previously on both scripts, but have since disabled on both, and am now cx.commit()ing on the inserting script and not committing on the select script. Ultimately as I only ever have one script actually making any modifications, I don't really see why this locking should ever ever happen

Ubuntu :: Init: Ureadahead Main Process (423) Terminated With Status 5?

Dec 1, 2010

Code: init: ureadahead main process (423) terminated with status 5 Ubuntu 10.10 lorentz tty1

lorentz login: The first line of the above shows up during boot before the display goes graphical. I can see it again (all of the above) when I Ctrl+Alt+F1 to access the first text console. Anyone know what is causing this, what problems can happen as a result, and what should be done about it? I moved from 9.10 on one machine to 10.10 on a new machine, so I don't know if it's a hardware problem or software. I am running 64-bit. I am not really seeing any problems happening besides the few scattered application and GUI glitches that are common with a new/migrated setup.

Ubuntu :: Init: Hostname Main Process (#) Terminated With Status 1?

Apr 20, 2011

I keep getting this message as the first thing I see when I boot up. Afterwards, it displays the ubuntu logo and dots under it and then the screen blacks out, but the display lights act like its OK (wireless ETC). should I use a boot CD or something? The hard drive is fine and this happened after the computer blacked out during updates. i scanned the hard drive and its OK, according to the little scan thing you can do before booting up. I have a Compaq Presario V200. For specs, thats all I know.

Programming :: Using The Process Status (ps) Command In A Bash Script?

May 27, 2009

I am new to scripting and been working on this bash script for awhile now. I been researching this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution. I was wondering if someone could please help me out. Here is my script:

#!/bin/bash
NO="ps -ef | grep NO | grep -v grep"
NOWC=`ps -ef | grep NO | grep -v grep | wc -l`

[code].....

I cannot get this script to run the "ps -ef" command on the client. It get its value from the host machine that I am running this script from. I need this command to execute on the client. When I run the command (ps -ef | grep NO | grep -v grep) on the client, I get something back. Here is what I get when I try to debug the script.

XX# ./test_ps5.sh XXXXX
+ NO='ps -ef | grep NO | grep -v grep'
++ ps -ef

Server :: Squid Parent: Child Process XXXXX Exited With Status 1?

May 24, 2010

I have a transparent proxy Squid-3.0 on Slackware 12.2. I used cron to restart squid every day at 7:30 AM (just /path.to.squid/squid -k kill && /path.to.squid/squid) Some days ago I saw in /var/log/messages that Squid was killed but haven't started. I started it manually and everything was OK. But today everything repeated. And the log file is interesting. I tried to find about it on http://squid-cache.org/ but al in vain. This is from /var/log/messages :

Code:

May 24 07:30:02 konura squid[17188]: Squid Parent: child process 17199 exited due to signal 9
May 24 07:30:02 konura squid[19038]: Squid Parent: child process 19040 started
May 24 07:30:03 konura squid[19038]: Squid Parent: child process 19040 exited with status 1
May 24 07:30:06 konura squid[19038]: Squid Parent: child process 19045 started

[code]....

I need to say that I haven't edited the config file for a long time, but this problem started to happen. ADDED, Solved: I'm not sure, but maybe I found the decision. I deleted about 400 mb of Sarg logs from /var partition. And now squid runs well. Besides, before deleting old logs, 'crontab -e' and 'pkgtool' didn't work And the system wrote me that it's no space left on device. At the same time, 'df -h' showed me that all partitions had enough free space. Seems strange, but that's it. After deleting old proxy statistics, generated by Sarg (this is about 400 mb) 1)squid runs OK and 2)there are no more that annoying messages about abscence of free space.

Debian Configuration :: Error: "dpkg: Failed To Write Status Database"

Jun 8, 2011

during an "apt-get install" the filesystem of a virtual machine filled up and so it failed. I have now increased the file-system size but running the same "apt-get install" again results in this error: "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." However when I try to run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' I get this error: "dpkg: failed to write status database record about 'libxmuu1' to '/var/lob/dpkg/status': No space left on device" How can I recover from this situation?

General :: Error - The Session Manager Initialization System Process Terminated Unexpectedly With A Status

Jun 5, 2011

I installed slackware 12.1 from files i downloaded and converted to cd (images). There are six "disks" i downloaded from the slackware site and converted to images via a homemade .cmd in windows xp and then burned using imgburn.

I partitioned my hd (canibalized from an acquaintance's emachine and connected it to my desktop (1G ram, 2Ghz processor). Booted from disk 1 and fomatted the 80G HD for 2 partitions of linuxswapable at 2G apeice and 2 partitions of bootable linux. (Because i want to try another distro later). I ran the setup installing most everything and all seemed to go well. After i exited setup and restarted, it identifed the cd/hd as normal and then went into some sort of recovery mode with the emachine logo call pcangel, after which it tells me.

STOP: c0000021a (fatal system error) The session manager initialization system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc000003a (0x00000000 0x00000000). the system has been shut down. So, is this indeed an xp error message, and if so, why am i getting it after formatting everything?

Ubuntu :: Twitter Status / Update Pidgin Status In Lucid

Jul 5, 2010

I have just upgraded to Lucid on Ubuntu. I am a long time Pidgin user. I tried using Empathy with Gwibber, but I can't get Gwibber to update my IM status(es) in Empathy, so I want to go back to using Pidgin. (Additionally, I can't get Skype to work with Empathy.)I installed pidgin-microblog and pidgin-mbpurple, and they allow me to view my Twitter feed in Pidgin and update my Twitter status in Pidgin. However, in Karmic, I was also able to specify certain "status availabilities" (one named "Twitter-Available" and one named "Twitter-Away", for instance) to have the IM status message for these statuses become populated with my Twitter feed. This capability seems missing in pidgin-mbpurple in Lucid (and it seems to be the only thing missing from Karmic).

Is there a way to have pidgin-mbpurple update certain "status availabilities" in Lucid (and I'm just missing something) or is this no longer possible?Equivalently, is it possible to have Gwibber update my status message in Empathy? (I just want to be able to update my status once on one of my three computers - and have it propagate to all my other accounts (IM and social networking) and computers).

Ubuntu Installation :: Why Does 10.10 Have 'Swap Area' Configuration

Oct 12, 2010

I was so excited that finally I can get the newest version of Ubuntu installed on my computer. Yesterday I downloaded the iso file and emptied my F:/ disk, hoping I can install it this morning. Everything was perfect until I met 'swap area'. I thought it was just that the installing program needed some free space during the process. Storage hierarchy, caching, something like that. So I configured my E:/ disk as the 'swap area'.

Bad decision! After everything was done, I rebooted ubuntu, only finding that my E:/ no longer existed!!!! I couldn't believe my eyes, so I rebooted back to Win7. E:/ disk wasn't there any more! Now I have to accept the bitter truth. All my journals, photos, and documents are ruined. My point is that: if something like 'swap area' is not so common sense to everybody, why does it have to be there? And if it will format that disk, why aren't I noticed? Not so long ago, I heard some one claimed that the ubuntu10.10 installing process would be revolutionized, much more user-friendly. Well, this is not what I've expected.
