[Bug 1437862] Re: pg_upgradecluster fails: "could not get cluster locales"

2017-12-26 Thread Rob Hills
This bug prevents me upgrading from 9.5 -> 9.6.

I tried both workarounds suggested above:
Edited /usr/bin/pg_upgradecluster changing lines 333 and 354 of that script 
from:
  push @argv, ('-t', '5') if $version >= '8.4';
to
  push @argv, ('-t', '30') if $version >= '8.4';
which was my guessed change based on comment #4 above: the posted link is 
broken.
I re-ran pg_upgradecluster but it crashed with the same error, and within less 
than a second of starting which suggests to me this isn't a timeout issue in my 
case.

Also checked my postgresql.conf file IAW comment #5 above, my port line
was already uncommented.

[Bug 1183692] Re: Not enough disk space for kernel security update on /boot

2016-07-31 Thread Rob Hills
Agree with the above.  There should be a simple, foolproof-as-possible way to 
manage boot device free space.  I am currently trying to rescue my wife's 
computer from an incomplete 14.04LTS -> 16.04LTS upgrade that has failed near 
the end because it ran out of space on /boot.  THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN!
Maybe I should have known to check for adequate free space on /boot before 
doing an upgrade, but if I should have known that, so should the upgrader and 
it should have checked and warned me BEFORE STARTING the upgrade!

Ideally the upgrade process should offer the option of clearing out old
kernels (there were only 2 there apart from the one in use) before
proceeding.

This bug has hit me quite hard in the last week, breaking a number of
automated ssh processes that have been working without a hitch prior to
sometime after Monday evening (8 December, UTC+8) this week.  I can pin
it down to that because each Monday and Friday evening I use a scripted

Monday this week, other ssh processes also broke.

I'm providing this info in case it helps someone pin down what changed

information from http://askubuntu.com/questions/202730/how-to-fix-the-

was able to complete a successful upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04

When I execute:
sudo do-release-upgrade

in the terminal, it gets to the point where it says:
  Calculating the changes
  Calculating the changes

and then says:
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. 

This can be caused by: 
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu 
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu 
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu 

If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. 

As none of the above applies, I'm mystified as to why this is happening.

2014-04-30 Thread Rob Hills
I just noticed that the debugging info above suggests I updated to Saucy
yesterday.  This is incorrect.  Looking at my apt logs, I have installed
Saucy back in October 2013.

In case it is relevant, I have changed computers since.  My current
spindle (an SSD) was in my old notebook computer which developed
intermittent hardware faults so I purchased a new notebook in March this
year and simply moved the SSD into the new notebook.  Perhaps this (or
the intermittent hardware faults) have contributed to/caused my current
upgrade problem?

[Bug 1165104] Re: oneconf is only showing the pc you are on in raring and isn't sharing to other machines

2013-08-04 Thread Rob Hills
I too have this problem.
I am very new to oneconf and thought I'd use it to migrate installed apps from 
my wife's old computer to her new one.

After finding the problem described by this bug in the GUI, I thought
I'd try the command line to link the two computers.

Firstly, each computer seems to have its own oneconf inventory (using
the same Ubuntu One login).  If I execute:

oneconf-query --list --hosts

on each computer, it returns a single unique ID and the correct host
name for that computer - I believe it should return both??

If I look at the One Google Account Apps information
(https://login.ubuntu.com/+applications), I see both computers listed.

However, I tried to execute the following on the old computer:

kaye@kayes-old-computer:~$ oneconf-query --share-inventory --hostid=ID-
of-new-computer

and it threw an exception - see attached traceback.

[Bug 1206952] Re: Fresh install 13.04 from Live usb stick to SSD (with 2 x RAID0 HDD)

2013-07-31 Thread Rob Hills
As I noted in my comments, I did NOT wish to install to the RAID HDDs,
the Ubuntu Installer did that.  I specifically selected /dev/sdc (an
SSD) as my installation target during setup.  I think there is a valid
bug here as the Installer tried to put Grub on a different drive from
the one that I'd targeted for the OS to be installed on.  I note this
was a straight, vanilla (apart from the LVM option) install of Ubuntu
13.04 onto a single SSD.  Specifically, this was NOT dual boot.

Also, not sure what you mean by fakeraid.  This is a Hardware RAID set
up using the motherboard hdd controller.  Are you saying it's not a real
RAID controller and that I should use the Linux SW RAID instead?

Hi Phillip,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I didn't choose to have grub installed 
anywhere. Unless I missed something, that's not an option you're given in the 
basic install process. Neither should it be, asking the average punter where

According to the logs you selected /dev/sda, which is the default.  Do

your bios is set to boot from the ssd ( /dev/sdc ) then you need to
make
sure to select that drive from the drop down list for where to install
grub, not just assign the root filesystem to a partition on that disk.

Yes, I am saying it is not a real raid controller and you are better
off
using Linux SW raid instead, unless you must dual boot with Windows,
which does not understand Linux SW raid, but does understand the fake
raid.  See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto for more information.

[Bug 857824] Re: Wishlist: Update to Unison 2.40.63

2012-09-01 Thread Rob Hills
I don't believe this is a duplicate as this bug report refers
specifically to Oneiric.  Bug #769479 has resulted in the latest stable
version of Unison (2.40.63) being made available in Precise, but it
remains unavailable in Oneiric.  This creates a problem for people like
me who need to sync between one machine running Precise and another
running Oneiric.

I suggest fixing this problem by keeping the existing default Unison
package in Oneiric at 2.32.52, and adding an extra package
unison-2.40.  This will allow people to update their unison if they
want to without adversely affecting people who are happy with version
2.32.52.

[Bug 857824] Re: Wishlist: Update to Unison 2.40.63

2012-09-01 Thread Rob Hills
While people wouldn't often need 2.32 AND 2.40 together, they may well
require one of the two because unison will only work if it is the same
version on both computers that are being synchronised.

Hence, at present, if one of those computers is running Oneiric and the
other is running Precise, you can't use Unison to sync between them
unless you install Unison version 2.32 on the machine running Precise,
hence missing out on the significant improvements with version 2.40, AND
not being able to sync with other machines running Precise unless they
also downgrade Unison.

I'll look at the Backports stuff and see what I can do.

[Bug 1044795] [NEW] requestbackport tool missing from ubuntu-dev-tools package for Oneiric

2012-09-01 Thread Rob Hills
Public bug reported:

The Ubuntu Backports Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports)
says:

The Ubuntu Backporters team recommends using the requestbackport tool
in the ubuntu-dev-tools package to file backport requests

I have installed ubuntu-dev-tools package (on an Oneiric system via
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools).  However, I can't find the
requestbackport tool, and it's not mentioned in the package info in the
Ubuntu Software Centre.  Is the Wiki out of sync with the package, or am
I missing something really obvious here?

I have of course tried entering the command requestbackport in a
terminal and also man requestbackport returns no manual entry for
requestbackport whereas man backportpackage pulls up that package's
man page.

[Bug 884159] Re: cddb not working

2012-08-25 Thread Rob Hills
I've experienced this problem with 2 CDs today.  Both are present in the
MusicBrainz database.  I suspect the problem is that both CDs have
unusual file/partition layouts.

One is this one (MusicBrainz link) http://musicbrainz.org/release-
group/ca08ae46-d5ce-4587-b3f4-45a532f767b8 . When I insert it into the
CD on Ubuntu 11.10, automount pops up 2 mount points, one the usual
music CD and the other is named David Hobson (the artist's name) and
contains a Windoze executable.  From instructions on the CD jacket, one
can download an extra song using this.

The other CD is Human Nature Counting Down
(http://musicbrainz.org/release/0ea44d06-51cb-4f5c-8a4f-87256956b5fe).
This CD includes some image files and also causes Ubuntu to create two
different Automounts, one for the music and one for the images.

Could these atypical CD layouts be tripping up banshee?  If a developer
needs an .iso of one of these CDs to test with, I can supply.

[Bug 884159] Re: cddb not working

2012-08-25 Thread Rob Hills
Googling this issue shows it's long been a problem for Banshee that
seems to reappear intermittently.

It would be nice if a permanent workaround could be built in, enabling
a user to specify a MusicBrainz URL or an album Catalog number that
Banshee could then use to retrieve metadata.  Then when Banshee can't
retrieve this automatically, at least the user can do something to help.

[Bug 212681] Re: Add Telstra Bigpond Australian repo

2012-02-11 Thread Rob Hills
If you try to access http://files.bogpond.com/ in your browser, you are
redirected to:

http://go.bigpond.com/help/file_library/index.jsp

According to that page, Telstra is now providing unmetered access to
AARnet mirrors.  From my brief exploration, these seem to include Ubuntu
mirrors up to the current released version (11.10).

So, the information on
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/mirror.files.bigpond.com-archive is
no longer correct and should probably be deleted or at least updated
with a link to the above (bigpond) URL as well as the launchpad page for
AARNet: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/mirror.aarnet.edu.au-
archive

HTH,

[Bug 865470] Re: Oneiric Gnucash crashes on startup: undefined gnc-path-get-bindir

2012-01-23 Thread Rob Hills
I had the same problem and while the solution posted by mgm eventually
helped me to find and fix my problem, it may be a bit terse for some.

To spell out what I did to fix this problem in more detail:

I looked in /usr/local/lib and found some old Gnucash libraries:

ls -al /usr/local/lib/libgnc-*

(AFAICT, the gnucash libs seem to start with libgnc-)

To prove they're old, I used locate:
sudo updatedb
locate libgnc-

This showed some duplicated libgnc files in /usr/lib/gnucash and
/usr/local/lib.  Checking the date/time stamps in both places showed the
files in /usr/local/lib were older.

I then moved the offending files from /usr/local/lib out of the way:

sudo mv /usr/local/lib/libgnc-* /tmp

After doing this, my Gnucash started working again.

[Bug 865470] Re: Oneiric Gnucash crashes on startup: undefined gnc-path-get-bindir

2012-01-23 Thread Rob Hills
This problem started for me immediately after an update from 11.04 to
11.10.  After the OS Upgrade, Gnucash simply stopped working.  No error
messages or anything, it just wouldn't work.

Fortunately, I had the skills to try starting it in a terminal console,
see the error message there, google it and find this bug report,
interpret mgm's description of the problem and use that to fix my
program.

I am not sure why this is not considered a bug in the upgrade process.
Should it not locate and fix such problems?
