Ubuntu :: What Msg Files Are / How To Stop Them From Downloading
Nov 14, 2010
I've been using PAN for quite some time - recently installed 0.133 from the Ubuntu software centre. Worked fine for a while, no issue. Then, a week or so, it started downloading .msg files in company with the binary files I was getting. Sometimes one .msg file for one binary, sometimes quite a few. It seems to have some correlation to the size of the binary, that is the larger the binary, the greater the number of .msg files were downloaded.This morning, it would ONLY download .msg files. I could see the decoded binary in the PAN viewer pane, but it isn't present on my system. I have made NO changes to any configuration files, other than installing the recommended updates.
How do I correct this?Can anyone tell me what these .msg files are, and how to stop them from downloading?Are there as-good or better newsreaders out there that I can/should try?

I am looking for a way to configure rTorrent to stop downloading all torrents after they have downloaded x amount. For example, specify 15mb and as soon as the torrent reaches that size have it finish downloading the pieces it has requested and then start seeding partially completed. The reason for this is I'm trying to come up with a way to build ratio on a site where torrents are added very fast and at a very high frequency.
I download and add the torrents to rTorrent automatically via RSS, but I only want to download a small amount and seed that small piece while there are still a lot of people in the swarm (swarm drops off very quickly) and come out with a positive ratio from that small piece, beating the ratio clock so to speak. I thought it would be an interesting all be it somewhat impractical exercise in shell scripting, if rTorrent can be hooked into like that, documentation is sparse in some areas.

How to set up a script to log on to a server through SSH, copy file from the server to the local machine, and then run a script on the downloaded file. More specifically, I've got a minecraft sever that is run on ubuntu.
I know that I can do
# ssh username@ipaddress
to log on to the server through the terminal.
After this it asks me for a password. Once I type in the password I have access to the directories on the server. How can I set up a script to log on to the server and enter password? Once I do this, how do I automate it to copy a file from that server to ~/Desktop? If I can do this, I have a script that will run from there.
I've learned that I can do
scp -r remoteuser@remotebox:/remote/directory /local/directory to copy files from a server to my local machine, but it still asks me for the server password. how do I make it so that the password is automatically entered?

When I try to load a php file my browser downloads the file instead of displaying the page. Here is my apache conf file.
#
# Based upon the NCSA server configuration files originally by Rob McCool.
# This is the main Apache server configuration file. It contains the configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See [URL] for detailed information about the directives.
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure consult the online docs. You have been warned.
# The configuration directives are grouped into three basic sections:
# 1. Directives that control the operation of the Apache server process as a whole (the 'global environment').
# 2. Directives that define the parameters of the 'main' or 'default' server, which responds to requests that aren't handled by a virtual host.
# These directives also provide default values for the settings of all virtual hosts.
# 3. Settings for virtual hosts, which allow Web requests to be sent to different IP addresses or hostnames and have them handled by the same Apache server process.
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "/var/log/apache2/foo.log" with ServerRoot set to "" will be interpreted by the
# server as "//var/log/apache2/foo.log".

I have an Ubuntu 9.10 server set up at my house. I have Apache2 and PHP5 installed on it. Every time I go to the server on a web page and try to load the PHP index page it downloads instead of displaying.
I have virtual servers set up and have the files stored at /home/cusinndzl. If anyone needs to take a look I can let them into the webmin panel.

Ubuntu Lucid 32-bit desktop machine. I run "aptitude update" and "aptitude safe-upgrade" manually from the command-line regularly to upgrade my machine. I usually don't pay that much attention to the downloading, but I noticed yesterday that aptitude appeared to be downloading four files simultaneously, rather than the one at a time that I've always seen. Would this be correct? How can I change that? I can't say I've ever noticed it before.

I want users of my website to be able to download files from it.
When they request a download, I would like them to see a window with the following attributes: ability to choose where downloaded file goes; progress of the download, and estimate of remaining time; a button to cancel the download.
There are hundreds of sites out there that do this, so obviously it's possible, but can it be done from a php script on the server? If not, does anyone know of a script in java(/script)?
I would also like to monitor when a download failed and succeeded, and if the failure was not because the cancel button was pressed, pickup whatever system information is available about the failure cause.

I have some scripts that need to use a newer version of PHP, Im running Debian 6 which has PHP 5.3.3 support, I found I could install php 5.4 using [URL]. This worked, it updated my PHP to a newer version, the only issue is that when the install completed apache now downloads the PHP file instead of rendering it.
Im guessing this has something to do with the Apache configs, but I don't know what to do.
Code:
Select alltom@vps:~$ dpkg --list |grep -E '(apache)|(php5-)'
ii apache2 2.2.16-6+squeeze12 Apache
HTTP Server metapackage
ii apache2-doc 2.2.16-6+squeeze12 Apache

I was thinking of migrating my apt-mirror repository to the recommended ftp scrips: [URL] .....
I pre populated my pool with already downloaded files, and setup the scripts.
However, if I run the bin/ftpsync, and monitor rsync with lsof -p, I can see that it is still downloading files from oldstable (wheezy) despite exclude options.
I'm guessing it's a configuration error, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any thoughts? My etc/ftpsync.conf is as follows:
Code: Select allMIRRORNAME=`hostname -f`
TO="/server_storage/srv/mirrors/debian"
RSYNC_PATH="debian"
RSYNC_HOST=ftp.us.debian.org
LOGDIR="${BASEDIR}/log"
[Code] ....
Actually, I don't think it works like I thought it did. A few guides I found listed the exclude options, but the sample config file has this:
Code: Select all## If you do want to exclude files from the mirror run, put --exclude statements here.
## See rsync(1) for the exact syntax, these are passed to rsync as written here.
## DO NOT TRY TO EXCLUDE ARCHITECTURES OR SUITES WITH THIS, IT WILL NOT WORK!
#EXCLUDE=""
So it looks like it doesn't exclude the suites at all.

I need to download some very large files (circa 75 GB) from a remote server via SFTP. I've been using SFTP via the command line on my Linux netbook. Around halfway through, the transfer stops and says "stalled." Can anybody recommend a reliable way to download these files?

How do I download all the files form here: [URL]. I am on freeBSD 7.0 and I tried wget with the -r switch and it gives me URL's only. Maybe this is simply not an ftp site I don't know. How I can download all those files with the same directory structure.

Is there an easy way to get all of the multilib files from [URL]? I've tried:
1.) wget - won't use wildcards on an http server, and trying to get the whole folder just gets me index.html
2.) ftp - it's not an ftp server and I can't login anonymously via gftp. I wasn't expecting this to work, it was just something else to try.
3.) rsync - If this could work, I may not be using the right syntax. I tried (-n for a dry run first):
Code:
rsync -avn [URL]
And it just sat there doing nothing until I hit ctl-c.
Obviously I could download each file from my web browser but I figured there had to be a more elegant Unix-y way without all the clicky-clicky. Are the files hosted on an ftp server anywhere?

I currently mirror the updates repository to my computer using rsync. I was wondering if I could save space and bandwidth by only rsyncing the .delta.rpm files? Are there any disadvantages to this or does zypper/YAST handle updates just fine with it?

I want to limit bandwidth for downloading files with squid. I want to reserve bandwidth for other traffic (esp. web browsing). I know about delay pools but I don't understand well. Some users use download managers to download large movie files. I don't want to block downloading but I want to give them limited bandwidth. May be 5KBps or 6KBps because I have only 512Kbps (64KBps) connection.

I am looking for a file sharing program to install on my dedicated server that will allow me to upload large MP3 files and allow my clients to download them. these files are recordings of counseling sessions for families who are seeking help for their children.
What I am looking for is similar to the system this company uses [URL].

For my project, I'm interested in the Scatterometer Products of Oceansat 2 from an Indian page [URL]
It's no problem for students to get a password to access and download their data for free. Nevertheless it's quite complicated to download the files by hand, since you have to mark every file by hand and click on a download button at the end of the page. When I tried it with my Script (which is below), and an internal server error 500 occured. I hope you're not too busy and could have a look on the script where the cookie and IP are entered manually for trial purposes.
The construction of the page is:
The adress, where you have to login:
http://218.248.0.134:8080/OCMWebSCAT...controller.jsp
The adress, when your're logged in:
http://218.248.0.134:8080/OCMWebSCAT...controller.jsp

Just during the last three days, when running Update Manager, clicking Check, downloading all available updates, then Clicking Install Updates, the Downloading Files window pops up but it is blank. and it stays blank. The little rotating icon indicates something's going on but, NO. Nothing has happened, even after a couple of hours. Trying to close Downloading Files brings up a window to Force Quit. Then trying to close Update Manager has no effect. to shorten the story, finally a window pops up saying that the "AT SPI Registry" is not responding. I'm sure trying the same thing will not yield different results. I'm running 10.04.

I put a few Itunes songs into my music folder and tried to play them. It didn't. Then, I got to reading in the forums and noticed that there was a "one click" configuration for Gnome users. After doing some more reading, I saw a lot of references to restricted codecs and things of that nature. After beginning the one-click process and then aborting midway through installation, three questions come to mind:
1) Why all the warnings about legalities of downloading the codecs/files? If I bought the music and I use the codecs to listen to it, where does legalities come into play?
2) While installing some of the different files, etc in the one-click process, I received a few warnings that a particular file was not from a trusted source (I don't remember the info verbatim) and then it gave me an email address, presumably from the developer, and asked if I wanted to install it anyway.
3) If I do go through the one-click process, will I be able to listen to I-tunes or am I pretty much screwed on I-tunes on linux?

I am vijaya, glad to meet you all via this forum and my question is I set a crontab for automatic downloading of files from internet by using wget but when I kept it for execution several process are running for the same at the back ground. My concern is to get only one copy, not many copies of the same file and not abled to find out where it's actually downloading.

how the file is generated or what it contains is not important at this point.The important question is how to prevent the file from being downloaded and its contents from being displayed in the browser window?Since it is not recognized by the web browser so it is downloaded on the system. That way, what the script does is exposed to the outside world.Okay, I usually keep such scripts in../cgi-bin/. But for files (text files, in the example) which are being uploaded by a user should not be downloaded by another user.

I have a very simple php web application deployed on linux (centOS4) machine. It creates a file and stores the file in /tmp folder on my linux machine. The path for this file is specified in the href attribute of the link. Ideally when we click this link the download manager should pop up so that the file can be downloaded on client machine.
When i access this website remotely from my window xp machine on firefox it downloads the file properly but when i run on internet explorer (i have IE7 on my windows XP) and click the link, the download manager does'nt pop's up. even when i right-click that link and select save as, an error message pop's up saying "file path not found". possibly IE is not able to determine the linux file path .so how do i work around this. is there some specific way for specifying the linux file paths to be downloaded by IE?

I'd like to know if there's a way, an option or something that will allow me to keep my .desktop files in /usr/share/applications untouched when I upgrade their programs.For example, I only want Chromium to appear in XFCE (for all usersdded the OnlyShowIn=XFCE" option to its .desktop file. The problem is that aptitude upgraded Chromium and reverted its desktop file back to its original configuration. Of course, I went ahead and added the same option again, but I'd like to know if there's a way to changs behavior of aptitude. I don't want to imagine the work I'll have to do again when they release a new version of KDE in the repos and I have to edit all of those files again. searched the forums for ".desktop files" and also for "/usr/share/applications" and got no significant results in the first 10 pages. The same with google. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Would it be a possible approach to add a directory to /etc/ to keep my settings fixed, the way there's an /etc/menu?
