View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently had to move to a new machine, everything went well except for one thing. I did fresh installation of LAMP server all with default configs. Every time I'm using PHP script to that invokes include, require or require_once I get the following error:
Code: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 20971520 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /var/www/index.php on line 2 index.php file: PHP Code:
<?php include "index.php";?>
icukapi.php file:
PHP Code:
<?php echo "test";?>
My memory_limit in php.ini is set to 20M. I tried to increase that however it didn't quite work. PHP seems to allocate all possible space and return that message every time i try. If somebody has an idea of how to fix it I would be more than grateful. I spend quite a long time searching for an answer however the all things i found suggested increating memory_limit which in this case doesn't work.
I am getting a new 4kb sector HDD for my laptop, WD scorpio black 750gb, I would like to image existing partitions on 512bytes sector HDD and move them to the new 4kb sector HDD, what's the best way to do this.
present config is as follows:
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders, total 156301488 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
[Code].....
I am planning to keep the same three partitions as the primary partitions on the new drive and add few more logical partitions. I would have liked to move to GPT but since I need Win 7, I am stuck with MBR partiotion table.
Now, I understand how to partition an Advanced format disk, what I want to know is how to move the existing partitions on the 80 Gb disk to the new disk?
I use Clonezilla to copy partitions but it is not compatible unless both the target and the source disks are already using 4096 sector size.
I can use Acronis True Image WD Edition to clone Win 7 but how do I clone Ubuntu?
Also my Laptop's chipset is limited to SATA 1.5, will it cause any issues, I know the bandwidth is not an issue.
how can I clone my installed ubuntu to a new harddisk? with 32bit ubuntu I have used:tar cvpzf -> create a tar file on my external nas system. after that I have done a restore tar xvpfz - worked with 32 bit.
Alternative I have mounted both disks and via another linux partition I have used:
cp -rvbdR /source/* /target
both methodes worked with ubuntu 32 bit. With 64 bit ubuntu I can NOT get it to work. error message after booting the clone: /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthoriy ..
I can see that /source/var/lib/gdm has different rights as /target - will be part of the problem.
This did not happen with the 32 bit ubuntu - but why ?

View 6 Replies View RelatedEvery single blank CD i put into my computer show it has 0 bytes of memory and i cannot write things onto them. I dual boot 9.10 and Windows XP, and Windows reads them just fine. Ubuntu will mount the disk as "Blank CD-R Disc, i can access it, and everything works except when i look at the properties it says there are 0 bytes used and 0 bytes free. The drive reads discs with data on them just fine, and they work flawlessly, its just blank discs that dont work. What i need to know is if there some property i need to change or a line i need to put in the terminal to make it read blank discs? Or am i completely screwed?
View 5 Replies View RelatedAs a recent migrant to Ubuntu from Windows, I was expecting to be able to compare the sizes of two folders or set of folders by Bytes (as in windows). I'm slightly OCD when it comes to my personal files and folders, and I like to maintain identical backups in various pen-drives; as such, I was hoping to be able to track the file sizes of each folder set, but I can only do so in Kilobytes... Is there any application or other means by which to compare sizes in bytes --as is the case in windows?..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently cleared out some old partitions, and "/" was getting full so I made it bigger. It went from about 2Gb to 7Gb.
Now when I boot into my OS I get a dialogue saying:
Code:
The volume "Filesystem root" has only 0 bytes disk space remaining
You can free up disk space by removing unused programs or files, or by moving files to another disk or partition I don't see how this is possible. If anything it should have more free space than it had before. how I might go about diagnosing this issue?
I was saving a few pictures, and I realized that none of them were actually being saved. I went to my home folder and I noticed that I only had 0 bytes left, then I deleted everything in my trash, got some space back, then it disappeared.

I am trying to write some code that interfaces with an AVR over a serial port. Basically I send a command then read the output which is 6 bytes. I need to receive all 6 bytes before the program continues. Is there a way to do this? If I use read() it returns -1 unless I add a delay before reading the port. Is there a way to get it to read the 6 bytes as soon as they arrive?In python you simply say how many bytes you want and the max time you are willing to wait which seems a whole lot easier than read
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if it's possible to log the number of bytes a connection transfered when the connection is complete with iptables. I know I've seen this sort of information in Cisco FWSM logs, where the "Teardown" entry of the logs has the bytes transferred for that connection. Is it possible to have something similar to that with iptables? Where the initial connection attempt is logged (i.e. NEW, which I have logging fine) AND an entry for that connection that includes the bytes transferred?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis question is only partially linux-related, but I accidently typed cp file /dev/sda2 instead of cp file /mnt/sda2. The first 300 bytes or so of the ntfs partition were overwritten and now it can't mount and can't boot. I figured I would try copying the first 4096 bytes from another ntfs partition and see if that gave it enough to at least boot. It didn't and I'm wondering if there's any way to fix this sort of thing easily (without downloading an entire Windows 7 DVD) and what exactly I overwrote that was so important.
