[Bug 1311886] Re: nsd fails to install
To over-simply demonstrate the flow of what I'm seeing and how my actions allow it to work, consider this: In theory, here is what happens given the .deb the way it is now: 1. dpkg unpacks the .deb. 2. dpkg attempts to start the daemon. 3. dpkg adds the nsd user and group if it doesn't exist already. 4. dpkg reports to the installed list that nsd installed successfully. Since nsd assumes that the default user to start as is nsd and if this is a first-time install, the user nsd will not exist. As such, step #2 will fail, keeping the remaining steps from continuing. If steps 2 and 3 are reversed, a first-time install of nsd will actually succeed. To work around this problem, once the files are unpacked, I back up the main config file, tell nsd to start as user daemon via the config file, then tell dpkg to configure the package. Once done, I restore the original config file, then restart nsd. Any timeline on when this will be fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311886 Title: nsd fails to install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nsd/+bug/1311886/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1311886] Re: nsd fails to install
Indeed. What I've found is that the user add function to bring the user/group nsd into existence comes AFTER (WTF?!?!) the system tries to start the daemon. What I tried doing was using another unprivileged user (e.g. daemon) so the daemon starts when I do the dpkg --configure -a or apt-get -f install. I do not want to do a random useradd; I would rather the packaging system add it per policy, not assign a normal user ID (anything above 1000) willy-nilly. I'll show you an example which can tacked on at the end of the /etc/nsd/nsd/conf file: server: username: daemon Then I perform a dpkg --configure -a or apt-get -f install Once the program starts, I will shut it down via service nsd stop , then removing the above stanza from /etc/nsd/nsd.conf. Then it works normally since the useradd portion of the script had a chance to do its thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311886 Title: nsd fails to install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nsd/+bug/1311886/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have gone with 2.6.38-5 from Natty and the problem has not shown up. In fact, I was seeing three different problems, notably ethernet device hangs (Intel onboard controller), CPU soft lockups (usually on a php5-cgi process), and of course, the disk errors.

[Bug 577796] Re: Filling disk with data leads to [sda] Unhandled error code. [sda] Result hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_TIMEOUT
I'm running an Opteron 2378 (2.2GHz) quad-core processor running a SP5100 southbridge, equivalent to an SB700-class chip. I am having the exact same problem and I've tried two different pairs of drives, different makes and models (started out with two WDC Caviar Green 750GB drives, moved to Seagate 1TB Barracudas (no XT, no LP)). It makes no difference; the system still crashes. For the record, the board is a Supermicro H8DI3-i-F board. Likewise, the time and manner of problem is highly unpredictable. It appears to be a case of interrupt loss, and there is otherwise no hardware issue that I can discern with the drives themselves. I have yet to try pci=nomsi, but I have tried with pci=noacpi with identical results, a crashed system after a random period of time. However, I have my doubts whether this will work since, apparently, the AHCI controller is not using MSI-based interrupts (it shows AHCI connected as a IO-APIC-fasteoi interrupt). The ethernet controller does, however, use a PCI-MSI-edge interrupt, as does the PATA controller, which I do not use. If need be, I can furnish all the necessary data. I just need to know what is needed. Also, will the pci=nomsi item actually help me? I ask because, as I indicated, this controller apparently does not use such an interrupt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577796 Title: Filling disk with data leads to [sda] Unhandled error code.

Please test with sun-java5-jre, I have heard through a trusted source that jre6 has compatibility problems and has been avoided in some very large production environments. That was a pretty good suggestion. However, when I tested with Java 1.5.0_11 as apt-gotten from the repositories, I'm seeing the exact same results as I had originally desdribed above. After this round of testing, here's what I'm seeing: --It does not appear to be the JRE. When I use Xorg on the same or a different machine or Mocha X on a different machine, regardless of whether it's Sun Java 5 or 6 behind Azureus, it works perfectly). --It does not appear the method of connecting to the X server matters. I tried on same machine and over a network; it consistently worked with Xorg on same and different machines and with Mocha X on a different machine; it consistently failed with VNC4Server on same and other machine and X-Deep 32 4.0 on another machine). --It does not appear to be installation-specific. Same-machine runs of Azureus for VNC4Server both failed on completely different machines, even differently-purposed installations, e.g. a server and a desktop system. Even inter-machine runs fail. --It does not appear that where you get Azureus itself matters. I tried the Universe version and the official distribution copy from SF. Both consistently work with Xorg and consistently fail with VNC4Server. --It DOES appear that it is a VNC4Server issue for me. All of the foregoing assumes a Feisty Ubuntu distribution and software therein, with the sole exception of the official version of Azureus and everything being fully apt-get upgraded to the most recent versions. Basically, it works fine with Kubuntu and all-current versions of installed libraries, both available Sun JREs, and most recent Xorg server on the same machine. It works fine on Ubuntu server with Xorg running on another machine entirely with various considerations taken into account so remote clients can connect. It dies on VNC4Server, same- or different-machine. Conclusion: Either the X server (in my case and apropos to Ubuntu, VNC4Server) or X libraries used by the JRE are at fault. Since there may be other interactions going on at the library level, I'm reluctant to completely rule them out unless there's a good way of testing that. I will continue to follow this ticket, but I will check things out on the VNC4Server package now. --Ian. FOOTNOTE: I took my testing a few steps further and used two Windows X servers, X-Deep 32 4.0 when it was freeware and Mocha X which currently has a freeware offering (http://www.mochasoft.dk). It completely failed with X-Deep, but it worked just fine under Mocha X. The only complaint I have with Mocha X is that since I'm at work and the machines I'm testing Azureus from are at home, I have to use a VPN connection and it's a tad slow to update the screen. But that's what I get for using a slow connection. And I've tried both JRE 1.5.0_11 and JRE 1.6.0-b105. Both work with Mocha X. This seems to further indicate that, in my case, at least, it's an X server issue or an issue with a client library with select X servers. -- Azureus crashes just after startup (attempt to show sliding notification window) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68020 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 78282] Re: vnc4server does not start Desktop environment after security update
I have a similar problem according to ticket 68020. I cannot use Azureus under VNC4Server, but the above idea of using the TIghtVNCserver package did the trick for me. The problem's with VNC4Server that I can see. I've even gone so far as to try it with external Windows X servers. Mocha X works perfectly while X-Deep 32 4.0 fails miserably. Otherwise works fine with Xorg and TightVNC. Some info about the systems in question: I'm running Feisty Server i386 on my fileserver and Kubuntu Feisty i386 on my desktop. I want to run Azureus on the fileserver so I can free up my desktops and since that machine runs headless, I use a VNC server rather than a normal one. Until VNC4Server is fixed, I guss TIghtVNC will do for now. --Ian. -- vnc4server does not start Desktop environment after security update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78282 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 68020] Re: Azureus crashes just after startup (attempt to show sliding notification window)
Acutally, bug 78282 seems to be more like it in this case. However, thanks for the clue on that one. The bug you reference pointed to that one as a possible duplicate and that one had a solution I could actually use in the meantime. Use the TightVNC server instead. --Ian. -- Azureus crashes just after startup (attempt to show sliding notification window) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68020 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 78294] Re: azureus (and others) cannot start main window on amd64
I have a case where the exact opposite is true, per bug 68020. In my case, it DOES work under Xorg but DOES -NOT- work under VNC4Server and it's i386 rather than AMD64/EM64T. And I'm running Feisty on all my production Ubuntu machines. My normal complement I run as a desktop on that machine (which is headless) is as follows: --VNC4Server --IceWM (I do not need GNOME, KDE or any heavy GUE, though TWM's entirely too lightweight for my purposes); this is my fileserver, not my desktop --Azureus (I have 2.5.0.0 from Universe for testing purposes; I prefer to use the official version for my actual torrenting) Works under Xorg just fine but dies after presenting splash screen or a few screens during its first run in VNC4Server. And it doesn't matter whether Azureus and VNC4Server is on the same machine or are on two separate machines. The outcome is always the same. I have a similar report on bug #78282 and the solution one user suggested was using TightVNCServer in the meantime. That advice actually worked. I now have Azureus running stably on TightVNC. I would like to at least have VNC4Server as a possible choice. Hope this report helps. --Ian. -- azureus (and others) cannot start main window on amd64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 78294] Re: azureus (and others) cannot start main window on amd64
Another note I forgot to make. Per 68020's advice, I tried the JRE 5 package and I had the exact same problem under VNC4Server as I had under JRE6, and likewise, the exact same success I had, only substitute VNC4Server with Xorg, and now, TightVNCserver. --Ian. -- azureus (and others) cannot start main window on amd64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 68020] Re: Azureus crashes just after startup (attempt to show sliding notification window)
I will be running Azureus semi-headless by using a VNC X server on my fileserver. I've had trouble getting Azureus running on it regardless of which JVM I've tried (though I was going between Sun Java 6 and GCJ's). After watching the messages, I decided to try something different. Run Azureus on one computer while displaying it on another. Here are my results: Ubuntu Feisty machine: vnc4server + Azureus + Sun Java 6 (all on above server) == Crash at some point or another. Ubuntu Feisty machine + Debian Sarge machine with bits of Sid: (vnc4server on Debian machine) + (Azureus and Sun Java 6 on Ubuntu machine as above) == Solidly fires right up and works. This seems to apply both to the Ubuntu-packaged and upstream versions of Azureus. I downloaded smallish file and it worked just fine. However, I haven't tried running long torrents on this machine since it has a very small hard drive in it (4GB) to test reliability as all the big drives I intend to use with this install are in the Debian machine. Nor have I tried to run it displaying on a real X server since this machine will never be running one to begin with once it's in production mode. Further, the working setup is a suboptimal setup because I'm fully intent on decommissioning the Debian install in favor of the Ubuntu install by moving it into the box which is presently running the Debian install. --Ian. -- Azureus crashes just after startup (attempt to show sliding notification window) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68020 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
