Sep 25 08:09:38 <barnseenio> Anyone alive for an openslug question?
Sep 25 08:12:27 <barnseenio> I have a nslu2 with openslug bootstrap'd to debian. i have the debian on a memory stick, and a wd harddisk in the other slot. when i unmount, and unplug the wd harddisk and then attach a 4way usb hub, and put the wd disk through that, my slug reboots itself, and goes back to the 'openslug' operating system, and sees none of the attached disks, i can shell in using the default openslug passwd etc. unplugging the hub, and returning the wd disk dir
Sep 25 08:13:33 <barnseenio> i have had this exact hub working before, but it 'stopped working' and started behaving in this way, after a mains power cut.
Sep 25 09:40:05 <supajason> hello?
Sep 25 09:40:46 <Reedy> just ask your question ;)
Sep 25 09:41:11 <barnseenio> What about mine!
Sep 25 09:41:13 <barnseenio> :)
Sep 25 09:41:59 <Reedy> barnseenio, tried on another machine? it might have been damaged during the power cut.. Is it seperately mains powered?
Sep 25 09:42:04 <supajason> ok so i have installed unslung
Sep 25 09:42:24 <supajason> telnet in the box
Sep 25 09:42:45 <supajason> and type "unsling disk2"
Sep 25 09:42:48 <supajason> but i get
Sep 25 09:43:44 <supajason> Waiting for /share/flash/data...
Sep 25 09:43:49 <supajason> 1
Sep 25 09:44:33 <supajason> Error: /share/flash/data (Disk 2, /dev/sda1) is not a mounted drive
Sep 25 09:44:45 <supajason> any idea?
Sep 25 09:44:49 <supajason> (s)
Sep 25 09:45:00 <Reedy> Whats the web interface say?
Sep 25 09:45:04 <Reedy> Does it recognise the drive?
Sep 25 09:45:09 <Reedy> If so, have you formatted it?
Sep 25 09:47:15 <supajason> USB Port 2:  	Ready (FAT/NTFS), 3848MB (100% Free)
Sep 25 09:47:51 <Reedy> wrong file system
Sep 25 09:48:19 <supajason> how do i format to right one
Sep 25 09:48:29 <Reedy> use the web interface
Sep 25 09:48:38 <supajason> ok
Sep 25 09:48:57 <Reedy> cant remember where the setting is, ages since i've used unslung/linksys firmware
Sep 25 09:49:23 <supajason> got it...formatting
Sep 25 09:50:28 <supajason> is says that it has been formatted but "Formatted (FAT16/32)"
Sep 25 09:51:05 <Reedy> stick it onto a windows or other machine and delete all the partitions on it
Sep 25 09:51:34 <supajason> ok good thinking
Sep 25 09:55:50 <supajason> grrrr
Sep 25 09:55:57 <supajason> windows not letting me
Sep 25 09:56:01 <supajason> 2secs
Sep 25 10:04:12 <supajason> anyone know how to?
Sep 25 10:04:55 <Reedy> whats happening or not happening?
Sep 25 10:09:12 <supajason> ok done it
Sep 25 10:09:13 <barnseenio> Reedy: The hub did work in another PC. Im beginning to wonder another theory. Before that restart, the machine had not been restarted for 4-5 months. I wonder whether i could have 'done something' which once the machine has been restarted has affected debians ability to use that hub or usb device.
Sep 25 10:11:08 <supajason> restarting
Sep 25 10:11:19 <supajason> with usb in
Sep 25 10:11:58 <supajason> without*
Sep 25 10:12:01 <Reedy> dont boot with the drive in!
Sep 25 10:12:13 <Reedy> good
Sep 25 10:12:13 <Reedy> lol
Sep 25 10:12:14 <supajason> lol sorry typo!
Sep 25 10:13:22 <supajason> booted, enabled telnet
Sep 25 10:13:48 <Reedy> cool
Sep 25 10:14:36 <supajason> logged in to telnet
Sep 25 10:14:53 <supajason> usb in
Sep 25 10:14:58 <supajason> waiting
Sep 25 10:15:41 <supajason> web gui says "USB Port 2:  	Not Formatted"
Sep 25 10:15:46 <supajason> good or bad?
Sep 25 10:16:28 <Reedy> thats right
Sep 25 10:16:32 <Reedy> if you removed the partitions
Sep 25 10:16:33 <Reedy> now try formatting
Sep 25 10:16:42 <supajason> from GUI
Sep 25 10:16:44 <supajason> ?
Sep 25 10:16:58 <Reedy> ya
Sep 25 10:17:02 <supajason> or telnet "unsling disk1"
Sep 25 10:17:05 <supajason> ok
Sep 25 10:17:32 <supajason> formatting
Sep 25 10:18:13 <supajason> light is flashing(didnt do that last time)
Sep 25 10:20:26 <barnseenio> So Reedy, can you imagine what would cause slug to reboot, and go into openslug, just by unplugging an unmounted usb hardisk, and replugging it in via a hub?
Sep 25 10:20:32 <supajason> now it says "Formatted (EXT3)"
Sep 25 10:20:37 <Reedy> supajason, ace
Sep 25 10:20:40 <Reedy> try unslinging now
Sep 25 10:20:46 <supajason> thanks
Sep 25 10:21:00 <Reedy> barnseenio, not a clue...
Sep 25 10:21:17 <barnseenio> Is the mailing list still active?
Sep 25 10:21:22 <supajason> yeaaa password:
Sep 25 10:21:30 <supajason> lol
Sep 25 10:21:56 <Reedy> it is, i get various daily digests every da
Sep 25 10:21:56 <Reedy> y
Sep 25 10:22:19 <barnseenio> I wonder if that might be a better place to get help, as IRC doesnt seem to likely
Sep 25 10:22:59 <Reedy> you should know by now its all a matter of time on irc ;)
Sep 25 10:23:03 <barnseenio> lol
Sep 25 10:23:07 <supajason> lol
Sep 25 10:23:17 <barnseenio> yes i guess i do know better
Sep 25 10:23:51 <supajason> rebooting
Sep 25 10:26:45 <supajason> yeah its working
Sep 25 10:26:54 <supajason> thank you reedy :-)
Sep 25 10:27:21 <Reedy> cool
Sep 25 10:27:31 <Reedy> if you have set default gateway, and some dns servers
Sep 25 10:27:31 <barnseenio> ...jealous.....
Sep 25 10:27:41 <Reedy> ipkg update; ipkg upgrade
Sep 25 10:27:46 <Reedy> and then install openssh!
Sep 25 10:28:57 <supajason> updated, installinh
Sep 25 10:29:00 <supajason> (g)
Sep 25 10:29:06 <barnseenio> usually i wouldnt care about this problem, other than being an annoyance .. however my new 1tb drive just arrived yesterday, and not being able to add is is driving me nuts ;-)
Sep 25 10:32:52 <supajason> installed :-)
Sep 25 10:33:11 <Reedy> cool, now you can use ssh rather than telnet :)
Sep 25 10:35:06 <supajason> using puTTY :-)
Sep 25 10:36:04 <supajason> now i need to install web server with PHP,MYSQL
Sep 25 10:36:27 <Reedy> good luck with the last one ;)
Sep 25 10:37:03 <supajason> some conf editing needed i guess with on 32mb
Sep 25 10:37:35 <Reedy> ya
Sep 25 10:40:55 <supajason> ipkg install php-apache (eaccelerator is optional, but highly recommended)
Sep 25 10:41:06 <supajason> what is eaccelerator
Sep 25 10:41:07 <supajason> ?
Sep 25 10:41:45 <Reedy> http://eaccelerator.net/
Sep 25 10:41:50 <Reedy> php caching
Sep 25 10:42:19 <Reedy> means it wont recompile/build the page on every load
Sep 25 10:42:20 <Reedy> making it quicker
Sep 25 10:42:44 <supajason> i see
Sep 25 10:43:05 <Reedy> like APC if you've heard of that
Sep 25 10:43:21 <supajason> so do i use "ipkg install php-apache-eaccelerator"
Sep 25 10:43:26 <supajason> nope
Sep 25 10:43:30 <Reedy> not a clue
Sep 25 10:43:39 <Reedy> errm
Sep 25 10:43:39 <supajason> but i do understand quicker
Sep 25 10:43:49 <Reedy> lol
Sep 25 10:44:32 <Reedy> ipkg install eaccelerator
Sep 25 10:44:34 <Reedy> it would seem
Sep 25 10:45:28 <supajason> ipkg install php-apache then
Sep 25 10:45:40 <supajason> ipkg install eaccelerator
Sep 25 10:45:43 <Reedy> dunno
Sep 25 10:45:45 <Reedy> wiki link
Sep 25 10:45:47 <Reedy> ?
Sep 25 10:46:16 <supajason> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/MediaWiki?from=Unslung.MediaWiki
Sep 25 10:46:29 <Reedy> yeah
Sep 25 10:46:34 <Reedy> caching will be good for mw the
Sep 25 10:46:38 <Reedy> then
Sep 25 10:47:38 <Reedy> you do realise another web server would possibly be more suited for the nslu2?
Sep 25 10:48:37 <supajason> like thhtpd?
Sep 25 10:49:02 <Reedy> or something
Sep 25 10:49:44 <supajason> i dont really know which is better
Sep 25 10:50:04 <supajason> i use apache so thought it would be better
Sep 25 10:50:33 <Reedy> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Info/ComparingWebServers
Sep 25 10:51:10 <supajason> thanks
Sep 25 10:52:11 <Reedy> supajason, whatya gonna use mw for?
Sep 25 10:54:01 <supajason> i going to put my own site on there not mw just looking on how to install everything
Sep 25 10:54:14 <Reedy> ook
Sep 25 10:54:20 <supajason> now im not sure which one
Sep 25 10:54:38 <supajason> if apache is a memory "hog" i dont want that
Sep 25 10:55:02 <Reedy> thats what i was meaning
Sep 25 10:59:39 <supajason> appweb doesnt use htaccess
Sep 25 11:03:53 <supajason> ok im going with thttpd
Sep 25 11:14:12 <supajason> how do i find out free space on the partitions?
Sep 25 11:30:50 <barnseenio> df -H
Sep 25 11:34:05 <supajason> lol its a small h
Sep 25 11:41:17 <Reedy> yeah
Sep 25 11:41:28 <Reedy> -H is to be changed to soemthing else
Sep 25 11:43:12 <supajason> ok so i want to edit the conf but i cant
Sep 25 11:43:33 <supajason> i have ftp in
Sep 25 11:44:01 <supajason> copyied to desktop edited but i cant upload (access denied)
Sep 25 11:44:14 <supajason> its in /opt/etc/
Sep 25 11:45:56 <Reedy> put a text editor on the nslu2
Sep 25 11:45:59 <Reedy> ipkg install nano
Sep 25 11:48:56 <supajason> installing
Sep 25 11:50:09 <Reedy> you will likely have a PATH issue when installed
Sep 25 11:50:22 <Reedy> ie "nano" wont start it to begin with
Sep 25 11:51:05 <supajason> huh?
Sep 25 11:51:37 <Reedy> try typing nano
Sep 25 11:51:45 <Reedy> it shouldnt start it to being with IIRC
Sep 25 11:51:49 <supajason> it works
Sep 25 11:51:55 <Reedy> oh. :/
Sep 25 11:52:05 <Reedy> other people have had problems with it
Sep 25 11:52:17 <supajason> lucky me :)
Sep 25 11:54:02 <supajason> i press ctrl+r type opt/etc/thttpd.conf
Sep 25 11:54:10 <supajason> it says file not found
Sep 25 11:54:37 <supajason> got it need a / at the beg
Sep 25 11:54:44 <Reedy> nano /opt/etc/thttpd.conf
Sep 25 11:55:55 <supajason> edited how do i save
Sep 25 11:56:05 <Reedy> ctrl+o
Sep 25 11:56:06 <Reedy> enter

Sep 25 11:58:48 <supajason> enter
Sep 25 11:59:02 <supajason> then it says caneclled
Sep 25 11:59:37 <Reedy> whats it say when you press ctrl+o
Sep 25 12:00:44 <supajason> file name to write to
Sep 25 12:01:03 <supajason> if i type thttpd.conf it saves it in root folder
Sep 25 12:01:27 <Reedy> try starting it via nano /opt/etc/thttpd.conf
Sep 25 12:02:20 <supajason> that looks good thanks
Sep 25 12:02:35 <supajason> yeah works
Sep 25 12:02:48 <supajason> how do i delete the one in root folder now
Sep 25 12:03:24 <Reedy> rm /root/thttpd.conf
Sep 25 12:04:04 <supajason> i see
Sep 25 12:04:46 <Reedy> rm literally being remove
Sep 25 12:07:08 <supajason> grrrrr ok now i start the http server with the dir=/www
Sep 25 12:07:41 <supajason> but when i type ip into browse i get index of with nothing inside
Sep 25 12:09:47 <supajason> it thinks the dir is the root folder???
Sep 25 12:10:21 <Reedy> did you restart the http server?
Sep 25 12:10:35 <supajason> no how do i do that?
Sep 25 12:10:47 <Reedy> err
Sep 25 12:11:04 <Reedy> its a while since i've done anything on unslun
Sep 25 12:11:05 <Reedy> g
Sep 25 12:11:06 <Reedy> moment
Sep 25 12:12:18 <Reedy> /opt/etc/init.d/S90thttpd restart
Sep 25 12:12:20 <Reedy> may work
Sep 25 12:12:52 <supajason> not found
Sep 25 12:13:01 <Reedy> cd /opt/etc/init.d
Sep 25 12:13:04 <Reedy> ls -al
Sep 25 12:13:10 <Reedy> see if anything references thttpd
Sep 25 12:14:07 <supajason> drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Sep 25 13:07 .

Sep 25 12:14:10 <Reedy> would possibly be easiler
Sep 25 12:14:44 <supajason> no output
Sep 25 12:15:02 <Reedy> which directory are you in?
Sep 25 12:15:26 <supajason> the prompt is "#"
Sep 25 12:15:37 <Reedy> dont think sh tells you much
Sep 25 12:15:39 <Reedy> pwd
Sep 25 12:15:40 <Reedy> ?
Sep 25 12:15:42 <Reedy> it hink

Sep 25 12:19:27 <supajason> huh?
Sep 25 12:20:20 <Reedy> http://slugipaddress ? or :8080

Sep 25 12:21:30 <Reedy> doesnt seem to be follwing teh root directory setting
Sep 25 12:22:12 <supajason> 82.19.40.201:80 is the thttpd server
Sep 25 12:22:20 <supajason> 82.19.40.201:8080 is the web gui

Sep 25 12:44:50 <Reedy> if your not going to use some of the php modules, i'd disable them in the config
Sep 25 12:44:56 <Reedy> comment the line out
Sep 25 12:44:57 <Reedy> ;
Sep 25 12:48:39 <supajason> what is bcmath.so

Sep 25 15:13:53 <mighty_doh> unslung is running .. accessing via telnet ..  installed mediatomb (ipkg install mediatomb) ..  but i can not tart the server ?!?
Sep 25 15:14:22 <Reedy> error messages?
Sep 25 15:14:56 <mighty_doh> when typing "mediatomb" to telnet => "-sh: mediatomb: not found"
Sep 25 15:15:21 <caplink811_log> use the absolute path
Sep 25 15:15:36 <mighty_doh> i'm still in root-dir, or do i have to change the dir first?
Sep 25 15:15:42 <Reedy> yeah, chances are its not in your path directory
Sep 25 15:16:00 <Reedy> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Info/MediaTomb
Sep 25 15:16:07 <Reedy> Start the daemon:

Sep 25 15:16:36 <mighty_doh> sry i'm a linux noob so far.. when typing pwd it tells me i'm in /root
Sep 25 15:17:32 <mighty_doh> ok i wanted to start first without the deamon..  guide tells to type mediatomb to console or something..  mom i will try /opt/etc/init.d/S90mediatomb start
Sep 25 15:19:18 <mighty_doh> ok looks better..  now it tells me "mediatomb startup is disabled in /opt/etc/default/mediatomb"
