Root Access

8:00 AM

Storing app data on the SD card does need Android 6.0, though.

8:16 AM

Nah. Just needs root and either a permfix or symlink.

Oliver Salzburg

Seems like the only thing CCleaner can't remove is itself...

I always get that special feeling when I get someones laptop to "fix it" and they have CCleaner on the desktop :\

Likewise, I get another special feeling when I log into a server, which triggered a "low disk space" alert and there is already SpaceSniffer on the desktop

bwDraco

8:33 AM

This highlights the need for Google to allow larger or more APK expansion files. (Google may need to charge developers a nominal fee for each app that needs more than 4 GB to cover the cost.)

Alright, it's getting awfully late here. See you soon.

Didn't realize it was 3:30 AM until now.

Bob

@OliverSalzburg I'm not sure if you're referring to a good feeling or not :P

CCleaner is firmly in the "just enough knowledge to get into trouble" category.

SpaceSniffer... never heard of it :P

I've always used WinDirStat

bwDraco

FFIX slamming into the 4 GB OBB limit is an indication that 32 GB of storage is not enough for modern phones as apps grow larger and larger.

Bob

And to that I say: meh. I'll stick with my swappable microsd

bwDraco

The lack of a 64 GB option in most non-flagship devices is a problem in and of itself.

(The Nexus 5X is not available with more than 32 GB, although the Nexus 6P goes up to 128 GB. The former is not a flagship phone; the latter is.)

Oliver Salzburg

@Bob You should have a look at SpaceSniffer then :)

Nice, this laptop has all web passwords still saved

Bob

8:39 AM

@OliverSalzburg Doesn't seem like it offers a significant advantage.

I usually use the tree anyway.

Oliver Salzburg

Email login is there, Facebook. We're good to go

Should I click Login?

Blows my mind really. Web Companion installed, Avira installed, because, you know, you gotta be safe

Then they sell the laptop on ebay, with all passwords stored on it

bwDraco

For some reason, it's flagship phones that get all the attention, and users of non-flagship phones (including me) are in a fairly small minority.

Journeyman Geek

._.

bwDraco

At least here in the US.

Oliver Salzburg

I guess I found the problem

Bob

8:44 AM

@OliverSalzburg Ah, yes. Good ol' CBS.

Journeyman Geek

man, that's ugly ;p

Bob

I dealt with that just the other day at work.

Journeyman Geek

CBS?

Bob

@JourneymanGeek CBS.

40

Q: Why is CBS.log file size 20 GB

Two days ago I had full C: drive after which I deleted 8 GB of data. The next day the hard drive was full again, so I continued with deleting another 5 GB, and once again the next day the disk was full. After some search about what caused disk space to be filled so quickly, I used windirstat to...

If your CBS log goes over 2 GB, it'll fail to auto-compress/auto-clean.

Journeyman Geek

ow

Bob

8:45 AM

That'll also leave a broken cab in the temp dir on every failure.

You can delete the large log and restart the Windows Module Installer service.

It'll compress/clear the rest out.

Do not compress the whole folder like that accepted answer suggests.

Bad accepted answer. Bad!

Feb 4 at 6:20, by Bob

I want to open this log file

Feb 4 at 6:20, by Bob

but it's > 2 GB

Feb 4 at 6:36, by Bob

The entire 2139 MB file was compressed into 8715 kB

I 7zipped it for laughs :P

Journeyman Geek

ahh

bwDraco

Component-based servicing.

The whole concept of servicing in Windows is something I've never fully understood, and I won't be able to go into it for now.

Bob

@SamB is correct. This problem happens because the .CAB format has a 2GiB file size hard limitation, and TrustedInstaller will continue to issue makecab routinely, creating a new ~100MiB file in your temp folder each time. The solution is to remove the 2GB log file (which can safely be done, as these are only used for troubleshooting). Thank you so much SamB for posting, you reached the root cause of this problem. I'm on Windows 7 SP1 64-bit. I can't believe Microsoft hasn't fixed this yet. — Syclone0044 Dec 25 '15 at 21:03

bwDraco

Good night/day/evening/$TIME_OF_DAY (depending on your time zone).

Journeyman Geek

Unrelatedly, I just found a problem I had before, same solutions, and stuff hasn't been updated since the last time I looked at it ._.

Bob

8:50 AM

@bwDraco Eh. It can basically be summed up as transactional installers.

And a bit of dependency/SxS management.

Burgi

morning

bwDraco

Something like the SUSE libzypp SAT solver?

Oliver Salzburg

@Bob I don't think it's CBS. But I wasn't able to peek into the 116 MB temp files

Bob

@OliverSalzburg It's definitely CBS.

The CBS log dir is 12 GB.

It should not exceed 1 GB in normal operation, if that.

bwDraco

CBS, Windows Installer, WinSxS, Windows Update, oh my!

Bob

8:55 AM

Those broken cab files are also eerily reminiscent of makecab failure cause the CBS log is over 2 GB

Oliver Salzburg

@Bob Oh, that. Yeah. But the 75 GB Temp directory was the bigger problem

@Bob Ah! Interesting

You can delete all those broken cab files.

Oliver Salzburg

Already done

Bob

@bwDraco Not really. SxS is designed to alleviate dll/so-hell, but doesn't really have much to do with deep dependency chains.

Or, I've never seen deep dependency chains on Windows :P

@OliverSalzburg Delete the giant CBS files too, restart the service and off you go.

Burgi

my off-topic flag was declined even though the OP was asking how to circumvent a school proxy. which is off-topic...

Bob

8:58 AM

Or you can 7zip them if you think you might need the contents later, but Windows rollover deletes them after a while anyway.

Q: Why can't I make a SSH over HTTPS tunnel to my home server?

I am trying to bypass a proxy server at my school due to it's unnecessary restrictiveness by using SSH tunneling over HTTPS. I have succeeded by using a free SSH tunneling service, and proxytunnel, which supposedly creates generic HTTP(S) tunnels through proxies to a remote server. The problem i...

networking command-line ssh proxy tunnel

Oliver Salzburg

@Bob The CBS folder was large, but the log itself is ~1 GB

Bob

@OliverSalzburg Even that is unusual.

Do you have any giant CbsPersist logs?

The rollover process goes something like (based on my own observations):

Oliver Salzburg

@Bob Yes

bwDraco

Perhaps tomorrow we'll talk about what servicing is and how the servicing stack works? The whole concept of servicing is completely arcane to me.

Oliver Salzburg

9:00 AM

It is unusual, but this probably happened in the past already. Hence the existence of SpaceSniffer on the desktop :P

Bob

1. CBS.log becomes timestamped CbsPersist_timestamp.log
2. makecab is run over all the CbsPersist logs in order
3. Old CbsPersist cabs are deleted

If step 2 fails on any one log then the whole process aborts there.

@bwDraco I've never looked into it in much detail anyway shrug.

Go to sleep.

g'night.

@OliverSalzburg How big?

And you may as well delete them (or compress them for kicks)

Oliver Salzburg

I cleared the whole folder

That's as far as I'll go about this alert.

Flooded front page a little. All [freeBSD] [ports] tags which were related to software ports now are retagged [freeBSD-ports]. Ditto OSX ports. Deleted COM ports (serial-ports added where needed). Deleted ports about broken hardware ports.

And a deleted two software ports (to other platforms)

Nonetheless, you basically lose TRIM and NCQ, but that's about it. Neither of which is a big issue on a non-heavily used system, so you'll still get like, 90% of standard SSD performance.

For those who find the heat or the weight of the occasion too much, their orders are clear. There is to be no crabbing sideways or swaying and certainly no dropping your rifle, going down on one knee or putting a hand down. Instead true grit is displayed by those soldiers who can topple forward face first while still holding their bayonet-tipped rifles. “You have to faint to attention,” says Major Dai Bevan, who will lead the 101-strong Guard of Honour from the Welsh Guards. “It will probably involve a broken nose and a whole lot of missing teeth.”
