Ask Ubuntu General Room

-_-

@Seth haha, thank you seth. It did what I :P

lol

@Seth Thanks for pretty formatting! I always use the `s. Bad habit.

10:27 PM

Yes, very bad habit :P

Hey, it worked changing the tomcat-users.xml file only

even with the logs?

didn't created any temp/ folder

and yes, the logs aren't accessible yet

I'm still having..

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/lib/tomcat7/logs/catalina.2014-08-30.log (Permission denied)

but it work

meh. I think you should create the temp folder anyways. It is marked as a severe error.

where?

10:29 PM

SEVERE: Cannot find specified temporary folder at /var/lib/tomcat7/temp

I couldn't find the line that you mentioned

yeah, but where?

your paste, line 66. paste.ubuntu.com/8153678

oh there, thanks :)

Two ideas.

(well one)

xD

well, none :P

10:30 PM

sudo chown -R tomcat7:tomcat7 /var/log/tomcat7

I found a way to simplify it.

nah, you should follow the link

chown the link too.

someone may want to change the final dirs

The reason I think you should chown /var/log/tomcat7 now is because it might allow you complete read/write powers.

It might work.

It might not.

Hi @Braiam!

> java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/lib/tomcat7/work/Catalina/localhost/NiceHelloWorld/SESSIONS.ser (Permission denied)

there is even more :(

10:34 PM

FFR: sudo chown tomcat7:tomcat7 <file you have problems with>

> SEVERE: The scratchDir you specified: /var/lib/tomcat7/work/Catalina/localhost/NiceHelloWorld is unusable.

I hate you tomcat!

And thanks for catching that forgotten sudo.

And that is why I don't use Tomcat.

the temp folder issue has been gone with the empty folder

?

mkdir temp

no more SEVERE

10:36 PM

it works. That's good!

yep

can't get the logs/ working

that one is hard

chown EVERYTHING!!

Just do chown -R tomcat7:tomcat7 / Disclaimer: DO NOT DO THIS!

xD

I did that once in my linux infancy. But it was worse

chown -R user:user / && chmod 777 /

You could guess what happened.

no worries, it still happens to mature people

10:39 PM

But, do make the tomcat log symlink owned by tomcat7:tomcat7

now, jokes aside, the log link and target are owned by tomcat7 user&group

still errors

hmm.

Have you tried Standard Fix #1?

hehe

I reseted the server

that was enough with the tomcat-users file

A: Installed Tomcat 7 but cannot run apps

@Lucio Have you tried this:

1

The "Permission denied" error for the logs directory most likely means that the OS user running the Tomcat process does not have write permission on that directory. Assuming you are running Tomcat with user "tomcat7", try setting the ownership and filesystem permissions of the logs directory, e....

replace the dir with the appropriate one for your install, of course.

A: permission denied to netbeans to publish to tomcat on mac

0

solve it.reinstalled everything

10:45 PM

lol

Most. Useful. Answer. Ever.

that's standard solution #2

Well, it IS mac.

@Whaaaaaat neither

hey, don't worry, the app is running

I just give a shit about logs

in 23 hours you will have +50 rep

but more than that, I appreciate your help :)

thanks.

i'm sure theres a solution though.

there is ALWAYS a solution.

yep

sudo apt-get purge tomcat7

sudo apt-get kill tomcat7 --fuck-you # feature request to apt dev team

10:49 PM

ehhh

sudo apt-get destroy-hdd-sectors tomcat7 --torch --random-data --hammersmash

followed by

sudo apt-get ban tomcat7 --global #--global needs package maintainer perms

I like the torch touch :P

@Mateo - it got here... so just saying. yeah, USPS not on the map. they can so get here if they try though.

So, I'm still waiting for my Tomcat to PHP converter to arrive.

O.O

@Lucio - what's the O.O for?

10:53 PM

@Lucio it's o.O

for the converter thing

o.O is uneasy questioning. O.O is closer to WAT

mine was a WAT

You mean @Whaaaaaat?

@hbdgaf haha, well nothing like "The Postman" huh

10:55 PM

people around here know where it is. google maps doesn't so much

@Whaaaaaat no he meant WAT. Whaaaaaat? and WAT are also different things. See destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat

meh.

@Lucio, this is the magic command: sudo apt-get super-cow-smash tomcat7 --horn-damage=65535 --kick-damage=65535

> E: Command line option --horn-damage=65535 is not understood

Umm. Try --headbutt

horn-damage was removed in 1.7.13b6

done!

@wildman Sorry to hear about the surgery! Hope you have a safe and easy recovery!

11:00 PM

All of the data that tomcat once occupied was replaced by "moo".

The sectors containing tomcat have also been destroyed and blocked from read/write.

awesome

tomcat is bad for you...

Skynet was coded in Java and was run in Tomcat.

lucio@lucio-pc:/var/lib/tomcat7/conf$ cat tomcat-users.xml | grep "role"
<role rolename="moo-manager"/>

Q: Gvfs / samba lookup slow since update to 14.04

Also, is my answer good?

0

Ever since I moved from 13.10 to 14.04, I observe an annoying effect whenever a samba share is mounted to my work station. When I open Nautilus, or when I look up /run/user/1000/gvfs it freezes for several seconds. This is also the case when I choose "save as" from a program, as the file save dia...

11:06 PM

can some one with it quick

@Andrew English please?

lol

@Andrew There was a heavy boy that thought his full auto glock unloading a clip with zero accuracy in 2.5 seconds was cool, so he posted a video... and now it's a wat meme

I need to setup ssh on my sister laptop so I can do updates

Just run sshnuke 10.2.2.2 -rootpw="Z1ON0101". You'll have root access.

11:07 PM

She is anti update

LOL

@hbdgaf can you help me with it while I have her computer

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

What you do, is you get SCREEN.

@Andrew if you ask something like that, you might want to say if it's a windows or ubuntu box etc etc. persistent ip or are you asking to set up dyndns too... etc etc. and not really. i'm a little beat. but those are things you should mention.

kubuntu 14.04

11:08 PM

In a TTY, start a screen session and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. Then just leave the screen session

I'm out

I know that you can have two user login at once.

gah I hate Brasero.

To get her computer, just say "I want to check my email."

linux ubuntu cron

problem solved.

11:10 PM

help.

^^ read

If you want to run a SSH server, she might figure it out. To do that, install and run the OpenSSH server.

@WhaaaaaatI just need to log in to it remoutly

sudo actions are logged. If she's good with ubuntu, she'll figure it out.

so you don't just want to apply updates.... got it.

11:11 PM

You want to HACK!

This is how you do it.

I need to help mer with everything even installing programs

@Mateo - still around?

Make a little bug and place it on her computer. An error that slows stuff down. Make her computer unusable.

Then she will update.

No

@hbdgaf I'm here

Ok, Andrew, just say you're installing a game. Then update that puppy!

The screen is lock at the brightest and it is brinding my eyes right now

I just added some silence to my feed... so. Anyway, the board looks pretty neat. Speakers and a screen. Going to try and get it working at some point, or repurpose the screen for my raspi. Either way.

Will Any one help me with setuping up remoute login on mer computer.

@Mateo In other news, I might be having a commit to w3af-devel soon. He wants to use docker, and I'm trying to set it up to use lxc and an abstraction layer to pull it in to docker.

11:15 PM

WHY DO SCHOOLS NOT KNOW ABOUT URL SHORTENERS?

Do anyone know how?

Andrew, I just gave you three good methods.

@hbdgaf sounds complex

Link?

@andrew to me

just edit them

@Whaaaaaat they are evil

11:16 PM

1. Just steal it and install updates
2. Install the OpenSSH server
3. Say that you're installing a game and really update the pc.

the shorteners that is, not the schools

@Mateo not really. he's just stuck on using docker and i don't know how to do it that way. i can use lxc and import it/launch it with docker though.

I have it right now

How do I install the openssh sever

I know that you aredy link me....

so, a make it easy button for those using docker?

basically circumvent using docker at all and just import an LXC container in to docker

11:18 PM

sudo apt-get install openssh-server

okay one

if someone wants to write it up in docker language, fine by me. that's just someone else

@Whaaaaaat got it them what

that's pretty cool. I live in one of those, but it has wheels.

thinking about taking out the queen sized bed and putting in a queen sized futon. turn my bedroom in to a movie theater with that projector i posted the other day.

11:28 PM

@Andrew Just SSH into the pc.

How

get the ip

jump on your pc

I am a noob when it come to ssh

open a terminal

how

ifconfig

I only know what it does\

11:29 PM

type ssh your_username@<other pc's ip>

yes. use ifconfig

was thinking there might be a project name in there somewhere, like LiveIn container for Docker

what would the aim of the project be?

ssh: connect to host 127.168.1.131 port 22: Connection refused

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

yes

Now how do I make a hidden user

11:35 PM

@hbdgaf Maybe, making something more usable, or using it in a different way, just one visual that came to mind when you were talking on the lxc thing

A: Is there a way to create a hidden account?

?

@Andrew read this

10

Since any user needs to have a password entry in /etc/passwd the answer is No. Anyone with root access can see the contents of the file and therefore know about your user. Even if you use directory services such as ldap, the user has to be registered somewhere. When it comes to hiding from other...

it's not supposed to be reusable. just getting something in to lxc, so maybe they stop wanting to do it with docker.

How do I hide it in Lightdm/KDM

A: Is there a way to create a hidden account?

10

The GUI tools ignore accounts with uid < 1000, which are reserved for system accounts. Give the account an unused uid in that range and it won't show up in the gui tools. Short of patching in a backdoor into the login program though, you can't hide it from the command line tools or direct inspe...

How do I do this now

11:41 PM

I do not endorse hacking or backdoors.

can't I just login as root

Actually I do endorse them.

but I don't want to do that....

sudo adduser -u 777 --home /etc/ioctl-man.conf/ ioctl

than what

11:43 PM

Hidden user named ioctl made.

olivia@Olivia-Laptop:~$ sudo adduser -u 777 -d /etc/ioctl-man.conf/ ioctl
Option d is ambiguous (debug, disabled-login, disabled-password)
adduser [--home DIR] [--shell SHELL] [--no-create-home] [--uid ID]
[--firstuid ID] [--lastuid ID] [--gecos GECOS] [--ingroup GROUP | --gid ID]
[--disabled-password] [--disabled-login] [--encrypt-home] USER
Add a normal user

adduser --system [--home DIR] [--shell SHELL] [--no-create-home] [--uid ID]
[--gecos GECOS] [--group | --ingroup GROUP | --gid ID] [--disabled-password]

command edited.

This user is pretty invisible.

what is the password

choose one.

how

passwd
