I was trying to sort out some problems I was having with synaptic and in a <sarcasm>slash of brilliance</sarcasm> I renamed my libc.so.6 to something else. Since then any command I type throws up:Code:apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryI can't get anything done. Nautilus/package manager/nothing fires up.
View 1 RepliesEnvironment: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic, 64 bit I was doing some maintenance on the machine and tried to delete everything under /var/lib/hudson. By mistake, I deleted everything under /var/lib. I know, I know, I must have taken an extra dose of stupid pills. Questions: Is there any way to recover without a full rebuild of the machine? Could I install Karmic to a VM, install all the same packages, and then copy over the /var/lib directory? Maybe a better question to start off is, which directories need attention (and what type) and which directories are not needed? Very soon before the delete, I did a directory listing in /var/lib. Here is what was in there:

View 14 Replies View Relatedhad upgraded from slackware 13 to 13.1 and finally 13.37.After this I noticed that 'dmesg' could only be executed as root. So inorder for a user to execute 'dmesg' I executed 'ln -s /bin/dmesg /usr/bin/dmesg'.What happened next is the symlink was created but the dmesg executable was deleted.I do not want to reinstall the OS (very time consuming on a P3 with 512MB RAM) so I want to know which package provides dmesg so that I can reinstall it.The dmesg man page indicated that klogd will provide the package but then when I reinstalled it it was a no go.

I never used crontab before and issued the command "crontab -d" instead of "crontab -e" to edit and add my cronjobpretty useless because I had no back up of my crontab of course First question, is there going to be any direct issue on my box because of the crontab being erased ?

I was playing around with the default panel that has the power icon (wrong lingo maybe) and the network/sound icons, etc.I deleted some items including the power icon and now for the life of me can't find it in the panel applets list in lubuntu.Is there a way to restore the default panel with the settings as when I first installed lubuntu.I also played with some spacings and other settings so would rather just get it back to normal/restore it vs add all the items back on and then play with the spacings again.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI searched the forum with various terms and didn't find anything, so my apologies if this is a common and/or newbie problem.It seems that when I have a USB driveplugged in to switch the files around, those that I delete are still taking up space. I first noticed it with a Chinese MP3 player and thought it was the player being crappy. I could still play all the songs that were supposedly gone. Today, I noticed it with a little thumb drive that I've had for years. I plugged it into my husband's computer running winXP, and the files showed up in a weird, unusable form. I was able to delete them for real.

I've been running Ubuntu on my laptop for a while, and I recently upgraded from 10.04 in Ubuntu using System -> Admin -> Update manager. However, when I now run System -> About Ubuntu, I'm told I'm running Natty Narwhal 11.04, rather than Ubuntu 10.10 which I was aiming for. I never noticed this earlier, though... I guess it's a month or two since I upgraded.Did something go wrong in the update and cause this to happen by mistake?I there a way for me to downgrade to 10.10?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently made a mistake and made my PATH variable nothing. I didn't notice this problem until I rebooted my computer and it would not let me login (the normal graphical login). I went into the terminal and found that my PATH variable was wrong so I edited my .bashrc file, adding Code:export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/gamesthis seemed to fix the problem in the terminal now I can access all of the binaries normally, but I still can login with the graphical login and I still cant startx.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI hope someone can help me here. I have a Win7 laptop 64bit OS & I'm trying to dual boot it with Ubuntu 10.04.3....I've done this many times without error on Vista machines, but with Win7, there must have been something I missed. In the process of dividing the HDD & setting up 100GB to use for Ubuntu, I believe that I deleted an important part of what Windows needs to run. (There was a small section there called "Vista loader" that is no longer there due to my error).. As it sits right now, the dual boot screen is fine, Ubuntu loads fine, but Windows will not load at all. I have tried all of the repair options including using a recovery disc and all "bootrec" commands that I would know to bring this back. All files on the Windows side seem intact & unharmed.

I've been working with out servers for the past several years. We have a mix of OS. Fedora, Ubuntu, RHEL, etc. I've accidentally trashed the libc.so.6 link and now nothing but shell commands work.
I tried to echo "/lib/libc-2.10.2.so into the /etc/sestatus.conf file, but that didn't have any affect. Does anyone know where the search path is maintained besides PATH so I can try to point the apps to the /lib/libc-2.10.2.so file? I have a bunch of SVN repos on this server and right now, no one has access.
I want to supply the shared libs along with my program rather than using the target system's due to version differences:

What is the connection between the kernel and Libc (either gLibc, uClibc, etc.)?
For instance, what happens if I upgrade the kernel but keep an older version of Libc and applications that rely on it: Will applications keep running, and I will need to upgrade Libc only if I install newer applications that expect to find new systems calls in the kernel that they reach through Libc?
Or are the kernel and Libc totally unrelated?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter the upgrades have installed on my installation of Ubuntu 10.4 (there were some kernel upgrades, I don't remember if there was any libc update there) it asked me to do a reboot. So I did and I got that error when Ubuntu was starting:
Code:
/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: /lib/libc.so.6: invalid ELF header
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
And if I run Ubuntu in recovery mode there's what I get after this:

There's also Call Trace after this, and a bit of text there, but as I'm rewriting those errors from a photo captured (because I cannot find logs of this in /var/log/) I will skip it unless it's needed to solve the problem.

I am not certain of the cause (it may have been after I updated my ATI video drivers, or instructed my system to use a dual-head configuration, which in hindsight was perfectly dumb) but regardless of the reason--now when I "startx" my monitor freezes with a few stray motionless pixels. Nothing I've done helps: tried "sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx"; tried "aticonfig --initial"; tried to revert to an earlier xorg.conf; but I don't really know what I'm doing, so I hope someone who far surpasses my knowledge of SuSE on the command line can help me out.

When installing, I used a hard drive that had a windows installation on it. In an attempt to have it format the whole drive and allow use of all the space on the hard drive, I may have made a mistake. In the end, there was only one partition which was "create volume for ..... /home with ext4." There was no partion for swap volume or root volume. It prompted me if I was sure I wanted to do that... it said I can do it that way but.... and then gave me some info which has since slipped my mind. What effect if any can I expect from having done that? The install went through perfectly and everything seems to be running ok
