| 00:00.36 | George | which one? |
| 00:01.07 | George | model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+ |
| 00:01.10 | George | cpu MHz : 2030.570 |
| 00:01.14 | George | flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow |
| 00:01.18 | George | bogomips : 4014.08 |
| 00:01.55 | resuDaed | how do you specify an nfs root? |
| 00:02.17 | resuDaed | KERNEL image root=10.0.1.100:/exports/pxedebian ? |
| 00:02.41 | Cope | you may need to specify machine |
| 00:02.43 | Cope | not sure |
| 00:02.47 | Cope | never done this before |
| 00:02.55 | resuDaed | specify machine? |
| 00:03.15 | Cope | but normal nfs stylee would be mynfserver:/path/to/stuff |
| 00:03.27 | Cope | oh missed the ip |
| 00:03.28 | Cope | sorry |
| 00:03.31 | Cope | getting tired |
| 00:03.50 | Cope | yeah, I'd guess that would work fine |
| 00:04.01 | resuDaed | that was my thought, but it didn't work |
| 00:04.06 | Cope | bollocks |
| 00:04.23 | resuDaed | (still retty rewarding to see my kernel starting to boot though) |
| 00:04.52 | Cope | this is an AND gate |
| 00:06.17 | George | ok, that's courier-imap sorta working |
| 00:06.18 | George | now.... |
| 00:06.24 | George | to get it to allow me to make subdirectories |
| 00:11.19 | evangineer | George, the correct imap speak is folders |
| 00:11.43 | George | evangineer: same difference. |
| 00:12.41 | evangineer | indeed, I'm just a bit of a stickler about nomenclature sometimes |
| 00:13.28 | Cope | lol |
| 00:14.03 | George | bleh, uploading 314MB of emails to my server |
| 00:14.42 | Cope | strewth |
| 00:14.43 | resuDaed | Cope : nfsroot= as opposed to root= :-) |
| 00:14.50 | Cope | gah! |
| 00:24.20 | George | Cope: know much about postfix? |
| 00:25.27 | Cope | nope, lots about sendmail |
| 00:25.46 | Cope | I never bothered to learn anything else; as no-one in real life uses it. |
| 00:26.56 | Cope | hint: bin it, install sendmail, ask again |
| 00:27.39 | Cope | (although we do actually do use postfix on our own main mailservers) |
| 00:27.59 | Cope | postfix is superb, just not got round to learning about it. |
| 00:28.33 | Cope | what's the generic issue? |
| 00:28.49 | George | i want to tell it to send email to both /var/spool and ~Maildir |
| 00:29.06 | Cope | why/ |
| 00:29.07 | Cope | ? |
| 00:29.19 | Cope | that's what procmail is for |
| 00:29.44 | Cope | or am I showing myself to be horribly out of fashion and date again? |
| 00:30.22 | Cope | TRB rocks |
| 00:30.24 | George | Cope: because I want pop3 access, as well as imap |
| 00:30.41 | George | Cope: and the imap uses Maildir, pop3 uses /var/spool (plus I'd rather have them separate anyway) |
| 00:30.52 | George | then if I download using pop3 it doesn't destroy my IMAP |
| 00:31.28 | Cope | erm, you appear to be confused |
| 00:31.44 | George | actually, screw it |
| 00:31.49 | George | I'll go IMAP only |
| 00:31.50 | Cope | lol |
| 00:31.54 | Cope | good scheme |
| 00:32.02 | George | I hope disconnected IMAP works on KMail. |
| 00:32.48 | Cope | should do |
| 00:32.53 | Cope | oh..... wait... kde is shit |
| 00:33.13 | George | Cope: die. |
| 00:33.48 | Cope | die: Command not found. |
| 00:35.47 | resuDaed | Cope: am getting errors as follows ... |
| 00:36.11 | resuDaed | Lokking up protof RPC 100003/2 on 10.0.1.100 |
| 00:36.21 | Cope | eek |
| 00:36.26 | Cope | at what stage? |
| 00:36.28 | resuDaed | RPC: sendmsg returned error 101 |
| 00:36.37 | resuDaed | at kernel attempting to mount root stage |
| 00:36.43 | Cope | shit |
| 00:37.02 | resuDaed | s/protof/port of |
| 00:37.09 | Cope | yeah got that |
| 00:37.17 | resuDaed | ok |
| 00:37.20 | resuDaed | :-) |
| 00:37.34 | resuDaed | what normally causes that? |
| 00:37.43 | Cope | you've googled? as that's all I'm going to do |
| 00:38.34 | George | Cope: ok, another thing. How do I transition an entire mysql database from one pootah to another? |
| 00:43.57 | Cope | easy |
| 00:44.19 | Cope | just back it up and restore it to a new destination |
| 00:44.23 | George | how...? |
| 00:44.24 | Cope | should be a piece of piss |
| 00:44.29 | Cope | amanda? |
| 00:44.31 | Cope | tar? |
| 00:44.35 | George | ok. |
| 00:44.35 | Cope | cpio? |
| 00:44.37 | George | ... |
| 00:44.43 | George | where's the mysql data kept? |
| 00:44.55 | Cope | depends on your setup |
| 00:45.03 | Cope | check the config |
| 00:46.22 | evangineer | not sure if disconnected imap works though. |
| 00:48.52 | evangineer | George, if disconnected imap doesn't work, check out http://gopher.quux.org:70/devel/offlineimap/ |
| 00:52.02 | resuDaed | Cope : I think it is an ip config error |
| 00:52.19 | George | bah, my blog's broken. |
| 00:52.59 | resuDaed | IP-Config: Complete: ... device=eth0 addr=166.0.0.0, mask=255.255.0.0,gw=255.255.255.255 and many more *badly* guessed settings) |
| 00:53.30 | Cope | heh |
| 00:56.39 | resuDaed | wahey, it has got further now, it's mounting ok, just as read only |
| 00:56.51 | Cope | sweet |
| 00:56.54 | resuDaed | (had to append ip=bootp to tell it to use it's dhcp settings) |
| 00:57.04 | resuDaed | doh |
| 00:57.30 | Cope | awesome!!! TRB kicks ass |

| 00:58.44 | Cope | </severe sarcasm> |
| 00:59.18 | George | Problem with SQL |
| 00:59.20 | George | [SELECT *,DAYOFMONTH(dEntryDate) AS day,MONTH(dEntryDate) AS month,YEAR(dEntryDate) AS year FROM blog WHERE MONTH(dEntryDate)='1' AND YEAR(dEntryDate)='2005' ORDER BY nIdCode;] |
| 00:59.23 | George | bollocks. |
| 01:03.08 | Cope | evangineer would be a good person to ask |
| 01:03.30 | George | all I did was cp the mysql stuff over |
| 01:03.31 | George | blah |
| 01:03.34 | Cope | my current experiece is confined to oracle |
| 01:03.36 | George | perhaps I have conflicting version of mysql |
| 01:03.48 | Cope | well, that should work |
| 01:04.14 | George | I have 3.x on the old server and 4.x on the new one |
| 01:04.15 | George | blast |
| 01:05.30 | resuDaed | so nearlly working |
| 01:05.53 | resuDaed | it's now completley booting, just still cannot get it to mount / rw |
| 01:06.28 | evangineer | George are you using the same table type in 4.x? |
| 01:08.34 | evangineer | so you are querying for blog entries from January 2005? |
| 01:10.04 | evangineer | what happens if you running that query directly from the mysql prompt? |
| 01:10.13 | evangineer | s/running/run/ |
| 01:11.30 | evangineer | does the blog code at least connect to the new mysql server? |
| 01:15.26 | George | evangineer: I dunno anything about mysql, btw |
| 01:15.30 | George | evangineer: yes, it connects |
| 01:15.53 | George | evangineer: what i did was I scp'd the /var/lib/mysql/orcablog directory to the same place on the new server |
| 01:16.04 | George | evangineer: then went in, did the GRANT stuff to create a new user with the right username/pass |
| 01:16.11 | George | evangineer: and that's what the blog churns out |
| 01:18.00 | Cope | hrm |
| 01:18.05 | evangineer | hmm, what's your /etc/my.cnf look like? |
| 01:18.31 | Cope | kinda like a text file.... is that ok? |
| 01:18.40 | evangineer | heh |
| 01:19.15 | evangineer | George, stick your /etc/my.cnf in a pastebin somewhere |
| 01:19.58 | evangineer | bit early to be back from the jongleurs isn't it? |
| 01:20.16 | George | evangineer: I'm using the default my.cnf |
| 01:20.31 | Leeds | it wasn't the comedy show - it was a party in the bar upstairs, and it stopped at around midnight |
| 01:20.49 | evangineer | and how does that compare to your old one, George? |
| 01:20.54 | George | evangineer: http://rafb.net/paste/results/W0cIan60.html |
| 01:21.04 | George | evangineer: no idea, I think I used the stock one for the old one too :) |
| 01:21.36 | George | evangineer: btw, the old one: mysql Ver 11.15 Distrib 3.23.44, for suse-linux (i686) |
| 01:21.44 | George | evangineer: and the new one: mysql Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.22, for pc-linux (i386) |
| 01:23.27 | George | evangineer: http://rafb.net/paste/results/OhS1ZM91.html <-- That's the old one |
| 01:27.19 | George | Kope? |
| 01:28.04 | Kope | :( |
| 01:29.31 | evangineer | George, I think the scp was a bad idea |
| 01:29.43 | evangineer | you should have done a mysqldump |
| 01:30.08 | George | mysqldump? |
| 01:30.24 | Leeds | yes, you should have done a dump |
| 01:30.42 | George | hey, it was Kope's suggestion |
| 01:32.58 | Leeds | night all |
| 01:33.54 | resuDaed | ok, I have an nfs mount with the settings (sync,rw,no_root_squash), however when I try to write to it I get permission denied, any ideas? |
| 01:34.29 | Kope | hrm |
| 01:34.42 | resuDaed | running mount tells me that it is mounted rw |
| 01:34.57 | resuDaed | (I have tried mounting from another machine and have the same problem) |
| 01:37.20 | resuDaed | tom@osiris:/mnt/kernel$ ls -ld pxedebian/ |
| 01:37.22 | resuDaed | drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2005-01-01 23:32 pxedebian/ |
| 01:39.02 | Kope | resuDaed: I am pissed, and therefore of no use to you at all; other than at a conceptual level. |
| 01:39.08 | George | evangineer: ah, using mysql sorted it |
| 01:39.11 | George | *glares at Kope* |
| 01:44.06 | evangineer | George, so what did you do exactly? |
| 01:44.58 | George | evangineer: mysqldump --databases orcablog > foo.sql; scp foo.sql foo: |
| 01:45.00 | George | then mysql < foo.sql |
| 01:45.17 | evangineer | George, excellent |
| 01:45.25 | George | evangineer: hrmm? |
| 01:45.42 | evangineer | that's the way I would have done it. |
| 01:45.49 | George | heh |
| 01:45.49 | George | ok |
| 01:45.55 | George | I continue to blame Kope |
| 01:46.03 | George | :) |
| 01:50.10 | Kope | evangineer: decreasing amounts |
| 01:50.34 | Kope | although its special brew that is poisoning me today |
| 01:50.51 | resuDaed | at what time should the kernel remount root? |
| 01:51.01 | Kope | 23.46 |
| 01:52.17 | resuDaed | ibot lart Kope |
| 01:53.49 | evangineer | depending on the amount of special brew consumed, you could probably know Kope over with a feather |
| 01:53.57 | evangineer | s/know/knock/ |
| 01:54.02 | resuDaed | lol |
| 01:54.12 | Kope | llol |
| 01:54.46 | Kope | (which is hugely rare) |
| 02:03.21 | George | sleep time |
| 02:38.52 | resuDaed | anyone still up? |
