Ubuntu :: Restore The CouchDB Password In Keyrings?
May 2, 2010
already beginning to destroy my new 10.04 installation :/ was conducting some diagnostics on the computer and removed passwords amongst keyrings that i thought was unused.
I deleted two CouchDB passwords, because i don't use Ubuntu One... But now i get an anoying warningmessage everytime I go into contacts in Evolution saying:
Quote:
Error loading address book.
This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable.
Detailed error message: Address Book does not exist
How do I restore these passwords that seem to be needed for the adressbook to work properly, or how do I remove CouchDB Ubuntu One synchronization all together from Evolution.

I'm new to linux and that forum, so a (possibly) silly question: I installed couchdb 1.0.1 w/ ymp (one-click) from http://software.opensuse.org/search?...3A11.2&lang=de and when I try to start it like /etc/init.d/couchdb start or sudo -i -u couchdb couchdb I am asked for a pwd, which I never put in. tried several standards or my own already. Didn't find anything in any documentation. Am I doing something wrong here?

recently I installed CouchDB 0.11 from source. Everything seemed to be fine, but yesterday I found out, that I can not use CouhDB Views. There are two reasons:
1 - I get no response from CouchDB if I created a Views and tried to execute it. There's no response neither in futon non in terminal. Everything I get is an endless loading-circle (if I use futon)
2 - CouchDB immediately "eats" all free resource. CPU usage jumps to 99% right after I executed a (temp)view. Only restarting of the couchdb stops this useless CPU crap

I often run into this and it's such a hassle that I have had no choice but to ignore it. But, I would like to run it properly but I don't understand why my sources list is 'wrong' or has incorrect info so that it's often not verified or authenticated. The public keyring is wrong or the source or both? I get these messages, for e.g.:
# apt-get update && apt-get install dmo-archive-keyring && apt-get update exit with result:
W: GPG error: http://unofficial.debian-maintainers.org squeeze Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 9EEBC8DB9B9C3CB6
I probably don't need that but I ran into a similar error trying to authenticate the multimedia keyring. Not sure it worked but I am guessing the system works the same with all the authentications? I hope to understand what I'm doing wrong and what the process is.

I have UNR 10.10 on two netbooks (Acer Aspire and Asus Eee). On both, irrespective of Power Management settings, the screen blacks out after a short period of inactivity and cannot be restored until the password is entered. This seems to be a UNR problem because the original Linux versions (Linpus Lite and Xandros respectively) dod not suffer from this.

Last week I upgraded from Squeeze to Wheezy. Everything seems to be in order, except now launching empathy will get my 4 separate GNOME keyring prompts in a row. I guess my keyring got copied for some reason, but I can't figure out what package to install to deal with my keyrings, as gnome-keyring-manager is only in sid...

I just set up Ubuntu on a computer for my wife today. My first attempt at a working system rather than just a demo. For certain reasons, afterwards I found it necessary to change passwords in the Evolution account. There does not seem to be an obvious way to do this from within Evolution. A bit of "guru" level advice says that something has to be deleted in some "gnome" directory, presumably on the occult command line level of business - but this was a several-years old msg and perhaps Evolution has "evolved". At my newbie level, I am afraid to do anything like deleting things in directories I don't understand.
Also, is there a way to import mail from Outlook Express .dbx folder files? Wife has thousands of valuable emails on her defunct WinXP computer. Finally, at one point Evolution asks for a "keyring password". Not only do I not know the password, I have never heard of the "keyring". Looking this up with a search engine gives an incomprehensible (to me, a newbie) explanation. Can I ignore this? Is there an explanation of why this heretofore unknown bit of Ubuntu arcana should surface? I thought Ubuntu was the Linux for the "rest of us". Should I just junk Evolution and install Mozilla Thunderbird? If so, is there a way to import the emails my wife has downloaded (733 at last count) from Evolution into Thunderbird?

I'm really new to Linux so this will probably sound like a pretty naive question to most users, but how do you change the root password?To install Java, I have to type # su into Terminal,which then asks for the password.What's weird is that when I start typing a password, no characters show up. I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not.I've found a bunch of different sites on the Internet that explain how to change the root password, but none of them seem to work for my specific work station.
I've got Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit. In the GRUB boot menu, I can choose to boot normal or in recovery mode (I'm led to believe older versions don't have this option).I've tried typing # sudo passwrd into Terminal, but I already have a root password set up apparently, so I can't change it there.

I thought these were the same password?In-fact, they WERE the same password on the set-up I currently have.But now, weirdly, I can log in fine but I the exact same password is not using in order to perform admin tasks.I've tried a recovery mode, console, and then "password (username)" in order to reset the password.This does reset the password I need to use to log in, but the password still does not work for performing admin tasks

I have a rather difficult problem. Every time I need root privileges and I am asked to authenticate (i.e. Update Manager, mounting a partition, etc), the password window comes up, shakes and immediately closes, leaving me with no chance to enter a password. What to do?edit: this is NOT the login window, just the little dialog that pops up when you need elevated privileges.

I know this has probably been asked too many times here but I need to secure my emails. Personal matters of course. But yeah. I use the program "Password and Encryption Keys" to generate a key to sign my emails with but I do not know what to do. To be blunt, I'm stupid when it comes to this. IF not, steps in creating a key? and giving it (my public key) to the significant other? Finding where both keys are? Implementing it into Thunderbird? If it helps any here's some extra information: Ubuntu distro: Ubuntu 10.04 Email client: Thunderbird

I am new to using Ubuntu 10.10 that was installed by a friend of mine, but he didn't give me a password for administrator and now when I try to install VLC I am blocked by a password prompt. To make things worse I can't use F1 key, esc key, tab key, 1key (I copy and paste 1 from other pages when I need it). I am at a loss here and all I want is to change the administrator password without validating the current password first.

I needed to use Synaptic Package Manager to install an app, but the dialog box ("enter the Administrative Password") that pops up before you can use Synaptic doesn't recognize my password ("incorrect password). I tried typing it into a text editor and it's spelled right, caps lock not turned on or anything.
In Terminal, sudo recognizes it, and it is recognized when I log into Ubuntu. I'm the sole user, I have admin privileges, I've been doing admin things.
I just now did System > Administration > Users and Groups and got a dialog box saying
"Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See [URL] for information. (Details - 1: Server ping error: IDLmg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0)"
Moving past that, I changed my user password, and Ubuntu authenticated it.
How do you launch Synaptic Package Manager from the command line?

I am an absolute Linux Beginner who is being required to do a bit of admin work because the boss just fired the old linux admin. Unfortunately, one of our employees cannot remember her password to her email account and as such I need to reset it on our linux server.What I want to check is that this email account is actually a linux user account and I simply will reset the password for it using the passwd command from the root login. Is that correct?

I work on a product that have to start automatically an application. Running Opensuse 11.2 So in the inittab I have : 1:2345:once:/root/Velox/VeloxBoot.sh 2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
In the VeloxBoot.sh, if I don't press any key, my application starts after a timeout. If the user presses a key I want to have a login prompt. Unfortunately, if I start /bin/login, I have a prompt with login, but once I enter my login, it does not ask for a password and it says wrong password

When I login to my laptop, there's a dialog that asks me for a password. When I fill that in, it allows the network manager to access my wifi password and connect to the wifi.How can I change the password that network manager is asking for? It's kinda awkward to ask this question - I am not asking how to change my wifi password, but the password that comes up - Seahorse? I'm not sure what's used on Lubuntu.
