mojo706

20:52

@Andrew This is just a friendly warning and not really a problem (as in that something does not work).

If you insert a

ServerName localhost

in either httpd.conf or apache2.conf in /etc/apache2 and restart apache the notice will disappear.

If you have a name inside /etc/hostname you can also use that name instead of localhost.

And it uses 127.0.1.1 if it is inside your /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 myhostname

follow those instructions

Andrew

o\

mojo706

what?

Andrew

okay I am back

I don't get that'

mojo706

do this

cd into /etc/apache2

sudo nano apache2.conf

then add this line
ServerName localhost

Andrew

okay now where I put ServerName localhost

After include right

Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
ServerName localhost

#
# Based upon the NCSA server configuration files originally by Rob McCool.
#
# This is the main Apache server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ for detailed information about
# the directives.

right

@mojo706 are you there?

Mateo

more "fix" spam in review askubuntu.com/review/low-quality-posts/156179

Braiam

@mods can we automagicaly flag *.fixpsdfile.com/ as spam?

Mateo

the address changes, to whatever the extension is, aka .fixrar.com .fixdocfile .ziprecover .mp3fixer ect.

Braiam

man... what a pain :/

Mateo

21:05

so they follow a similar pattern but no two are exactly the same...

Braiam

mmm... *.*fix*.com/ would catch them all...

Mateo

oh, and fixer doesn't show up when looking for fix on our search...

@Braiam they also use recover

anyway that would be too broad I think.

A: Why does TightVNC viewer lag in 12.04?

Does switching to 100 megabits with ethtool (or an old router) help? 1000baseT can be slower than 100baseT for chatty things like scp, http://fixunix.com/ssh/368694-scp-unbelievably-slow.html maybe the same is true with vnc. (Also, you mean 'gigabit', not 'gigabyte'.)

Braiam

look for http

sudo apt-get install wordpress

Andrew

Nathan Osman

Okay, what's the problem?

Andrew
