Re: Package lists with state and extended state
this tool is : you write once the recipe and than you can reproduce easily the installation or keep a system updated. This is a short example for the workstation.yaml I used: ``` - hosts: localhost connection: local become: true # install base packages tasks: - name: Install Base Packages apt: pkg: - gufw - ufw - remmina - clipit - zim - unzip - p7zip-full - wine - winetricks - putty - cntlm - xz-utils - ca-certificates - curl - gnupg state: latest update_cache: true - name: Update apt and install libvirt and quemu apt: pkg: - qemu-kvm - virt-manager - virtinst - libvirt-clients - bridge-utils - libvirt-daemon-system - qemu-system - qemu-system-gui - qemu-system-arm state: latest update_cache: true ``` this is the doc page for the apt module: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/ apt_module.html Let me know if you need more info :) Regards Stefano
Creating custom rspberry image using ansible
Hello,
I am trying to create a custom raspberry image starting from the code here
https://salsa.debian.org/raspi-team/image-specs
I added the ansible step in this file raspi_master.yaml:
- apt: install
packages:
- ansible
- python3
- ca-certificates
- dosfstools
- iw
- parted
- ssh
- wpasupplicant
- systemd-timesyncd
- __LINUX_IMAGE__
- raspi-firmware
- __WIRELESS_FIRMWARE__
- __BLUETOOTH_FIRMWARE__
tag: tag-root
unless: rootfs_unpacked
- ansible: tag-root
playbook: ansible/image.yaml
- cache-rootfs: tag-root
unless: rootfs_unpacked
Then I created the folder and file ansible/image.yaml whit this content
- hosts: image
tasks:
- name: "set /etc/hostname"
shell: |
echo "{{ hostname }}" > /etc/hostname
vars:
hostname: discworld
When I run:
make raspi_3_bookworm.img
The output is:
Exec: ['chroot', '/tmp/tmpz7n89mb7', 'apt-get', 'clean']
Created /tmp/tmpvcwo8eje for Ansible inventory
Created /tmp/tmp3achsgue.yaml for Ansible variables
Exec: ['ansible-playbook', '-c', 'chroot', '-i', '/tmp/tmpvcwo8eje', '--tags',
'all', '-e', '@/tmp/tmp3achsgue.yaml', 'ansible/image.yaml']
ERROR: Program failed: 1
ERROR: RuncmdError('Program failed: 1')
Something went wrong, cleaning up!
Removing /tmp/tmp3achsgue.yaml
Removing /tmp/tmpvcwo8eje
Exec: ['zerofree', '-v', '/dev/mapper/loop0p2']
Exec: ['kpartx', '-dsv', 'raspi_3_bookworm.img']
Exec: ['losetup', '--json', '-l', '/dev/loop0']
Command exited with non-zero status 1
I confirm all the dependencies listed on the remote are installed, also ansible
is installed...
So what I am doing wrong ??

Re: Debian12 with nginx and php-fpm
Ciao Michael, simply the old-style /etc/init.d "start" that you show in your post did not suffice. I do note that you seem to have a mix of TCP ports here; both 80, 8080 (in the requested URL) and 8090 (in the podman invocation). After your email, I double checked and I reported wrongly the port on the browser url.. of course there were no others containers running a the host Anyway I tested the procedure using * a vm as you did, and I confirm it is working... starting the services using systemd simply works. * a vm, stopping the services using the systemd and restarting them using init.d and it works. * docker running on a debian host, starting the services using init.d and it works. * podman running on a debian host, starting the services using init.d and it works. So case close... because the first try was running on a different distribution, confining all the check to debian do not reproduce the issue. Thanks for your feedback Stefano
Debian12 with nginx and php-fpm
Hello All,
I am Stefano from Torino, Italy; I am just new to this list, nice to
virtually meet all of you : )
I am writing to you because I need support for a strange issue I' am facing.
I am trying to create a debian container to run some php app for a side
project, the idea is to use nginx and php-fpm,
the procedure I am using is :
[host] $ podman run -ti -p 8090:80 debian:12-slim
[container]$apt update && apt install vim nginx php-fpm
edit`/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default` de-commenting the php part
# pass PHP scripts to FastCGI server
#
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
# With php-fpm (or other unix sockets):
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php8.2-fpm.sock;
# With php-cgi (or other tcp sockets):
#fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}
[container]$/etc/init.d/nginx start
[container]$ /etc/init.d/php8.2-fpm start
edit`/var/www/html/info.php using the content:`
connectinghttp://localhost:8080 I get the default nginx page
connectinghttp://localhost:8080/info.php I got Access denied.
and the logs report :
[container]$ tail -n 2 /var/log/nginx/error.log
2024/07/06 13:19:45 [error] 7365#7365: *1 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP

SSH timeout logoff don't work!
Excuse me but i sure you that i use this practice from many years and always work in the past. I've a other distro, an "old" Debian 9 and a Centos 7 with SSH version 7.4p1 and i'm sure work all well because i put ClientAliveInterval 15 and after 15 seconds SSH session closed!

Nothing in ssh is supposed to close an idle session. There isn't any facility to do that, because it's entirely contrary to the design of ssh. Your TMOUT solution is the standard way to appease the managerial morons who are asking this of you. It asks the shell to terminate if it's sitting idle for however many seconds you specify. If the shell closes, then the ssh session is free to close as well, assuming there are no active tunneling connections, etc.

If I put ClientAliveCountMax 1 with ClientAliveInterval 600 timeout is 1200 inmy Debian 11. I have try all combinations but at the moment nothing happen; session stay alive!

Disclaimer: I am not knowledgeable in ssh/sshd matters If I am not wrong, from what I understand from sshd_config manpage: https://manpages.debian.org/bullseye/openssh-server/sshd_config.5.en.html this behavior is what it is supposed to be: DisconnectionDelay=ClientAliveInterval*ClientAliveCountMax (times expressed in seconds) ClientAliveCountMax set to 0 disables disconnection and is set by default to 3. For example, to have a 10mn disconnection delay, you could set: - ClientAliveCountMax to 3 (default) and ClientAliveInterval to 200 - ClientAliveCountMax to 1 and ClientAliveInterval to 600 - ClientAliveCountMax to 10 and ClientAliveInterval to 60 ... --- End Message ---

drag & drop after update to debian 10
Good morning everyone from Italy, I updated my system from 9 to 10 and I have a problem with drag & drop files, when I try to drag a file into a folder the file is not moved and an error message appears, I would like to know if someone is aware of a bug or has detected the same error, the system has been updated correctly via apt.

[fwd: call for participation - Debian contributors survey, 1st ed.]
This was originally posted to debian-devel-announce minutes ago. I'm forwarding it to debian-user in order to reach out to users who also contribute to Debian (e.g., with bug reports), but do not follow more developer-oriented Debian mailing lists. Cheers. - Forwarded message from Stefano Zacchiroli - TL;DR: all Debian contributors --- from bug reporters to Debian project members and participants in any Debian team --- are invited to take part in the first edition of the Debian contributors survey. To participate visit: http://debian.limequery.org/696747 The deadline for participation is: 4 December 2016, at 23:59 UTC. This is the first instance of what we hope will become a recurring annual survey of Debian contributors. The survey is intended to help the Debian project and community by enabling them to understand and document the evolution of the project's population over time, through the lenses of common demographics. In addition, each year the survey will explore a specific aspect of the project. The focus for this first edition is on work and labour issues, specifically on the extent to which Debian contributors are volunteers or paid to work on Debian, and on how that affects their contributions. Participation in the survey is completely anonymous, with no logging of any provenance information (e.g., IP address, HTTP referrer), and all questions are optional. The survey is conducted using the Free Software platform LimeSurvey and hosted by LimeSurvey.org. The results of the survey will be analyzed as part of ongoing research work by the organizers and released in aggregate form only. A report discussing the results will be published under a DFSG-free license and distributed to the Debian community as soon as it's ready. The raw, disaggregated answers will not be distributed and will be processed under the responsibility of the organizers. The survey will remain open until: 4 December 2016, 23:59 UTC. If you have any questions, you can always reach the survey organizers at: - Mathieu ONeil (mathieu.on...@canberra.edu.au) - Molly de Blanc (debl...@riseup.net) - Stefano Zacchiroli (z...@debian.org) We thank you in advance for your participation!

apt-get upgrade fails on custom repository
Hi all! I subscribed to the list 'cause I could not solve my problem with google (and all the relevant Debian documentation I could find...). I have created a local repository for distributing software inside my local network. I wanted to secure the process, so I opted for a hierarchical structure (dists/my-dist/my-component/binary-my-arch), a dists/Release file and its gpg dists/Release.gpg signature. On the client side I added a .list file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ with just one line: deb uri-of-my-repo my-dist my-component When I launch `sudo apt-get upgrade`, the Release and Release.gpg files are correctly downloaded into /var/lib/apt/lists/, but I get an error "Unable to find expected entry my-component/binary-my-arch/Packages in Release file" (my-dist, my-component and my-arch are not the actual names; actual names are lowercase, only letters). However the Release file does contain a line with the md5sum of the Packages file, its length in bytes and its name (including path: my-component/binary-my-arch/Packages). Moreover the Package file can be downloaded from the repository (I tried with wget on the client). If I manually copy the Packages file in /var/lib/apt/lists/ (with a name that includes its path, like other files in that dir), everything works fine. I don't understand what is the point. Any idea? Thanks, Stefano

Hi Stefano.

nslcd has been installed automatically installing libnss-ldapd.
Ok.
This is my /etc/nsswitch.conf:
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
That's fine.
This is unnecessary, nslcd functions fine without a DN.
ok, i removed it
Try stopping the caching daemon ("sudo service nscd stop") and try
again. getent still doesn't resolve?
I'm not 100% sure, but LDAP might bee needed in pam as well.
Installing libpam-ldapd should do that automatically. Look for
"pam_ldap.so" in /etc/pam.d/common-{auth,password,session}
Looks like LDAP can't find the DN in the repository. Can you log in
manually as this user?
Trying your command:
root@amahoro:~# ldapsearch -xW -D
"uid=nslcd_proc,ou=System,dc=amahoro,dc=bi" -H ldapi:///
Enter LDAP Password:
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)
That explains why nslcd didn't succeed binding.
I don't know why but trying with this:
root@amahoro:~# ldapsearch -xW -D "cn=Manager,dc=amahoro,dc=bi"
Enter LDAP Password:
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base (default) with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 32 No such object
I don't understand where is wrong.
Are you sure you have a working LDAP-database? Make sure you can
resolve things manually first. When that is working you can continue
working on nslcd.
Do you have a slapd.conf? Have you compiled it from source or
installed as a Debian package?
I installed it as a Debian package:
root@amahoro:~# apt-cache policy slapd
slapd:
Installed: 2.4.23-7.2
Candidate: 2.4.23-7.2
Version table:
*** 2.4.23-7.2 0
500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze/main i386 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
In that case the configuration isn't done by slapd.conf. Check out the
documentation: "zless /usr/share/doc/slapd/README.Debian.gz"
What do you think?
This command should give you the suffix and ACL's and some more info
(assuming a HDB database):
server$ sudo ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b "cn=config"
"(objectclass=olchdbconfig)"

AFAIK the openldap server (binary package is called slapd in Debian)
packaged no longer use that file. Instead the config is stored in a
LDAP repository (/etc/ldap/slapd.d) and modified by using LDIF-files.

question/answer website for user support: shapado.debian.net
Dear followers of the -user mailing list,
you might be interesting in knowing that since yesterday there's a new
Debian experiment ongoing in the area of user support:
http://shapado.debian.net/
which is a multi-language question/answer website where participants can
ask questions, answer questions, and rank answers given by others. I'm
not a regular participant of this list, but the website might be a nice
complement for those who prefer (either temporarily or on a regular
basis) a web-based medium. More information have appeared on -project
[1] and Planet Debian [2].
Now that I think of it, there might even be room for some synergies
among this (and similar) list(s) and shapado.debian.net; for instance,
regulars of this list might consider having posted to this list new
questions appearing on the question RSS feed [3]. This is just the idea,
as the actual details of similar syncs are always a bit delicate ...
Keep in mind however that for the moment all this is just an experiment,
the success of it will depend on community participation. See you there?
Cheers.
PS I'm not subscribed, so please Cc:-me on followups if you want your
message to reach me.

Spam management and sa-learn
Hi all Debian users, I have this setup for mail: exim4 as MTA, fetchmail to fetch mails from different pop3 servers which delivers mails to procmail and procmail calls spamc and finally I'm using mutt as my mail reader. I'm used to recollect spam messages in an archive named ~/Mail/archive/recent/spam, which contains *all* the spam messages collected in the last 6 months (weekly refreshed by an anacron script). In order to train spamassassin I also run weekly this anacron script: #! /bin/bash MAILROOT=$HOME/Mail # maildir inboxes # learn what is ham sa-learn --ham $MAILROOT/archive/recent/generic/* #learn what is spam sa-learn --spam $MAILROOT/archive/recent/spam/* both ~/archive/recent/spam and ~/archive/recent/generic are maildir mailbox (this is the reason I use the * to match cur, new and tmp). The problem with this setup is that I continue to get a *large* number of spam messages in my generic inbox (which contains no mailing-list mails), in the order of more then 50 messages per day, and I'm getting tired to manually filter it, while most of spam messages (200+) are directly addressed in the ~/inbox/probably-spam directory. So my question is: what's wrong with this setup, in particular can you suggest how to improve the spamassassing training? Also I would like to avoid to encapsulate messages detected as spam as it currently spamc does encapsulating in a message starting like this: "Spam detection software, running on the system "santefisi.caos.org", has identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original message has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label similar future email. If you have any questions, see the administrator of that system for details." Can you suggest which option I have to switch off? Also I ask if such messages are correctly classified when the sa-learn is run against them (maybe *this* the problem). Also have you suggestions for how to improve this spam management system for this one-user system? Many thanks, regards and and an happy debianish new year. -- Stefano Sabatini Linux user number 337176 (see http://counter.li.org) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Why? Hi, I had a similiar issue recently using obexftp and a Motorola V535. The problem turned out to be that I needed a passkey manager running during the authentication phase. The very ugly solution I contrived consisted into compiling the source of the passkey-agent included in /usr/share/doc/bluez-utils/examples, then running it like: passkey-agent 1234 the phone should accept in this case the bluetooth passkey, then test it with: obexftp -b -l Documentation is very scarce and the various guides/tutorial I checked are rather inconsistent, so I think there is a better solution, maybe someone can enlighten us about the use of the passkey-agent (and where to find an already compiled version).

You told it, ffmpeg can't still downmix (but that is a requested feature, many related patches laying aroung ffmpeg-devel), so you have to do it manually (for example using faad --downmix).

Re: Convert .OGG to .MPEG or .SWF
On date Tuesday 2007-11-13 15:32:19 -0600, Alejandro Aguila Sáinz wrote: > That worked for .mpg :) but any idea to convert to .avi or .swf? Thanks! [...] Please don't top post. First you have to understand that Mpeg really means many different things, it may refer both to some standard that defines many multimedia *containers formats* (Mpeg-1, Mpeg-2:PS, Mpeg-2:TS, Mpeg-4:14) or many *media stream formats* (Mpeg-1:video, Mpeg-2:video, Mpeg-4:2, Mpeg-4:10 aka AVC aka H264). Avi is a *container*, so you can put into it many different media streams, but not necessarily all (in this rgards the Ogg file format is far more restrictive). ffmpeg is clever enough to figure out which multimedia formats to use when you only specify the extension of the output file (e.g. .avi -> use as container avi+mpeg1:video+MP2, .mpg-> use as container Mpeg 1+mpeg1:video + MP2) but you can specify the codec to use and the corresponding format to issue using the -acodec and -vcodec options (have a look at ffmpeg -formats). Example: ffmpeg -i -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec libmp3lame output.avi For other examples (for example to get a FLV/SWF file) look at the FFmpeg documentation FAQ.

linux/config.h missing from linux-libc-dev
Hi all, I'm on a Debian Lenny with a linux-2.6.22 kernel and the linux-libc-dev 2.6.22-4 version. linux-libc-dev is replacing the old package linux-kernel-headers which seems to be deprecated. The problem is that I'm trying to compile the spca5xx module from source, and it fails compiling because of the missing linux/config.h file.

X freezes!
I am a brand newbie to Linux. I followed Debian's slink 2.1 standard installation and used dselect afterwards to add X server and clients. Linux sits on my first hd in partitions hda3 (linux) and hda4 (swap), the first two partitions are Dos16-big and host win 95. I successfully configured LILO so as to choose starting OS at booting time (that i am quite proud of...). My problems came with the installation of the X server: i tried first to get it from XFree86.org, and XF86Setup'd it, but it would only start the VGA16 server. Then i realized that i could download and install X via dselect, which i did overwriting previous installation. I have a Cirrus Logic GD5465 AGP chipset with 4MB RAM and a HP D2817A Ultra VGA monitor, so i am using the SVGA X server, which gets started directly on boot. I configured it with XF86Setup again, leaving RAMDAC, VRAM and clockchip to be probed and i chose an 800x600 16bpp resolution for the monitor. The server and client started smoothly, i am able to change video mode, but after a few minutes' work everything freezes and i am no more able to even Ctrl-Alt-Bksp or Ctrl-Alt-Del. Actually the only means i found to get unstuck without powering-off is rebooting via telnet from another machine. Can you help me? -- Stefano Stabilini [EMAIL PROTECTED] _/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ Lab.

Then i realized that i could download and install X via dselect, which i did overwriting previous installation. I have a Cirrus Logic GD5465 AGP chipset with 4MB RAM and a HP D2817A Ultra VGA monitor, so i am using the SVGA X server, which gets started directly on boot. I configured it with XF86Setup again, leaving RAMDAC, VRAM and clockchip to be probed and i chose an 800x600 16bpp resolution for the monitor. The server and client started smoothly, i am able to change video mode, but after a few minutes' work everything freezes and i am no more able to even Ctrl-Alt-Bksp or Ctrl-Alt-Del. Actually the only means i found to get unstuck without powering-off is rebooting via telnet from another machine. Can you help me? -- Stefano Stabilini [EMAIL PROTECTED] _/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ Lab.
