I am done setting up an ubuntu server on Amazon Cloud Service.
I connect to it via SSH.
I would like to upload my website into the /var/www folder through SSH. I would like to upload a complete folder's worth.
Whenever I used to start up a window would open asking me for my password. No problem. One day I clicked cancel and it has never come up again, when i start up the ubuntu one logo switches to updating folders for a bit and then it switches to the default but with a little red x on it. I haven't been able to get it to connect. I can place files into the folder on my computer but they don't show in my ubuntu one account folder also. Also I heard, that soon we'd be able to upload folders instead of file by file is this true?

I am creating the site in windows and need to know how to transfer it to the server, preferably into the /var/www folder directly.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIve been trying to figure out a method to upload (copy) all files and sub folders under that folder to my content delivery network, basically run it every 30 minutes.
Whats the best way to do it? I tested a few that I was reading about, one just copied files nd not sub folders, another moved all files.
1- I've set up 3 virtual users,one of them is a system one (with a different password) and writes on his own home folder. With this one I haven't found any problems yet, but with the other 2 users I can't access files/folders created by them. It's a permissions problem for sure, but I'm not sure how to correct it.With these users I can upload files, create files and create folders. The problem is I can't access what I create (I can't enter a folder I created but it is there and I can upload files into it).
2- Whenever I turn on ssl_enable=YES I can't access the server (even from the server itself when I connect to localhost, It's a regular Ubuntu installation).Here's the config file for the users:
Code:
write_enable=YES
anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
anon_other_write_enable=YES[code].....
OS: ubuntu10.04 LTS running on latest oracle virtualbox. This works: I have opened a ubuntu one account. And I can log into that account. But I have to do so by: clicking 'ubuntu one' in top bar, and click 'account' in prompt that appears. Shouldn't log in take place automatically? Being logged in I'm able to make new folders. And appearently able to enter them (they are empty I quess) If I try to upload a file clicking 'upload file' in ubuntu one. A prompt appears and I choose the file to upload and click 'continue'. The prompt says "uploading" but nothing happens. If I choose a document folder and click 'mouse click right'. And then click 'sync with ubuntu one'. It prompts that it syncs the folders. But nothing happens.

Code:
chown -R user1 /home/www
This user also have been given all the root privileges (I know it is not recommended!)
The problem is that each time I make new site, and user1 wants to upload (through ftp) files to /home/www/newsite I need to redo the the above command in order to be enable user1 to upload. Not only this, I need to rework permissions (744 for folders and 644 for files), otherwise the newsite throws permission errors message.
Just installed lamp, I can access phpmyadmin mysql is set up and everything. When I try to view a directory [URL] I get an access denied error.
EDIT: I changed the permissions of the "folder" folder itself, I can access everything in that directory now but not any other folders in it. Do I really need to go through every folder every time and change the permissions?
I've managed to setup Ubuntu Server 9.10, and created folders/files toview/edit/execute with Windows and Mac.
Now here is my dilemma, this is for a home server, and I will have 4 users(1 for myself, one with "admin" rights, my fiance(mac user), media pc, and a "guest" account for the computer or 2 that are out in the public(they don't need access to my taxes ).
I'd like to have it so that on my laptop, I can access the whole server, but some files/folders would even need me to put in a password. I want to do this because my fiance gets delete happy and deletes things, so if she goes on my computer she won't delete important info. I'd like her to have access to music, photos, and videos, as well as her having her own folder that she can treat as her hard drive.
The question is, do I need to setup a domain for this, or can I get away with a workgroup?
Will unzipping always append files if the directories already exist? What about tar?
I unzipped an archive the archive had 3 folders and dozens of subfolders within those. app, skin, js
The folder I unzipped it to also already had those 3 folders as well as many child folders etc.
My website is still working so I'm just wondering. Is this safe or is there anything I should worry about. The other option was to manually upload each file manually that is in those 3 folders and the dozens of sub folders.
I m able to do the changes in the home directory of the users' but when it comes to the /var/www/html folder, it's not allowing to do any changes/create the files or folders
I m able to view the files and it's contents

I'm looking for a Syncronizacion Softwares (running as a daemon) to do a unidirectional syncronization of some files/folders from a lot of servers to one central server.As there are a lot of servers i want a software that only needs to be installed on the central server and pulls the files/folders from the other servers.rsync and unison need to be installed on both machines and syncronize the files/folder by sending them from al the servers to the central server(its no the central server the one who pulls the files/folder from the other servers), so they dont work for what i want.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow does one transfer music from a MTP device to the Music folder? Or upload music from the MTP device to programs such as RhythmBox, Banshee, etc.? I have tried using Gnomad2 to no avail and I have exhausted my self searching the online Ubuntu community forums and doing searches on search engines regarding this subject reading through countless article of users trying to get Linux system to recognize or mount their MTP devices.
My system does recognize and mount my MTP device (Creative Zen Micro) and the Music Players (RhythmBox, Banshee, Amarok, VLC, XBMC) all access and play the music without any problems. I just want to transfer or copy the music from my MTP device to my system.
I pushed the browse button and selected the first picture, but I was unable to select all of the pictures.
This happened again on an email attempt to do the same thing.
In the gnome environment, I am able to select the first then hold down shift, and select the last pic and all the ones in between will be selected. I expected this behavior when selecting for upload, but it didn't happen. I had to select each one, one at a time and upload each one.
I tried making a folder to upload the whole folder and that would not select at all.
I have been plagued by this for some time. How many times do you need to run chown -R user:www-data or similar to your webroot directory.I have been searching via Google and this forum. I have yet to find a definite answer to handle uploading and creating new files usable by apache2.Scenarios can vary. Some folks put there webroot inside a /home directory. Some users leave the default location as /var/www.I have a two part question.. Why do I often read "Apache runs as user=www-data, therefore files need to be readable by such (www-data)", but the default install in Ubuntu includes an index.html with the following?
Code:
ls -l /var/www
total 4

View 1 Replies View RelatedFirefox grays out and doesn't unfreeze until the entire upload is complete.I can't do anything else on the internet while this is happening.This didn't bother me until now, because I need to upload some pretty high quality pictures to Flickr, and it takes about fifteen or twenty minutes to do so.I'd like if the pictures could simply upload in the background while I do other stuff, instead of completely freezing my internet usage in the process.I don't have a problem downloading files quietly in the background not even large files so why can't I upload files without freezing everything up? Is this normal, or is there a fix for this?

I am trying to write a shell script in order to automate the process of uploading a file onto an FTP server using the built in FTP commands in ubuntu server (lucid). In order to connect I can use the following:

I've got problems uploading files to a remote FTP server using passive mode with enabled SuSeFirewall2 (Using 11.2)

I have noticed that the files and folders search in Unity, only shows up those files which have been amended (or possibly just opened) since the install.
i was wondering if there was a way i could have the search index (or something vaguely equivalent) all the files on my machine. This is especially important given that i reinstall the OS every six months on a new distribution cycle, copying all my old files across.
Without being able to see my old files the search is pretty much reduced to a recent history search.
I've discovered that Dolphin seems to lose random files when copying many large folders.
I first noticed this a few months ago when I tried to copy my music library from one folder to another on the same HDD. It consisted of around 600 folders and 6500 files. During the copy there were no errors but after the copy I found that some of the newly copied folders were missing files. I put it down to human error or a glitch.
Yesterday I tried to copy 13 folders containing rips of some of my DVDs. Each folder basically had one film of either 700MB or 1.4GB. Again no errors showed up during the copy but I found 3 of the newly copied folders were empty.
It's not so critical with music or films but I can't afford to lose work data like this.
Has anyone experienced or seen a similar problem with Dolphin? I'm going to have to do some more extensive testing but this is not good.
The first time I noticed the problem I was running KDE4.3.4 (I think) and now the latest was with KDE4.4.0.
I found this command that works great finding and replacing a simple string to another in files located in that folder and all sub-folders.
Code: find . -name '*.php' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/OldText/NewText/g'
The problem I have is that I need to replace a more complex string, like this: Old string: /mnt/stor6-wc2-dfw1/627896/982574/ New string: /mnt/stor8-wc2-dfw1/369587/302589/ There I don't know how to do it... since the / is what separates the old from the new strings, and the strings that I want to replace have / in it. Also, I would like to know how to specify under what folder replace the files, for example, I want that it search/replaces all files under /var/www/mysite/htdocs folder.
I have many files and folders in my source folder. I want to copy some files and folders from that source folder to destination folder. What should be require to given with the "cp" command?

I am using Ubuntu Server 10.04, all the latests updates.
For an FTP Server, I use ProFTP.
One specific directory, and it's subdirectories on my server will not download at a reasonable rate. They move at about 17-50KBPS.
All other folders work fine, at around 1.5-2.5MBPS.
What is going on? I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. The files being transfered are in a directory under home. They should have no permissions issues (I reapplied the permissions I want already), I tried restarting ProFTP, the files vary in sizes (from a few kilobytes to about 120 megabytes).
I use Webmin for most web management.
I am not having overload issues with my network card or CPU utilization while downloading these files. They are being accessed from the local network.
This issue is taxing because the files in question are backup files.
I have been through a lot of sites and googled allmost everything to get an answer about sharing folders on a Ubuntu Server with Windows clients.
Every site tells me, that the only way to get from windows to the shared folders on a ubuntu server, is by using some extra software, installed on the windows machine.
Is this correct?
