@Obsolesce said in City of Munich Moving to Closed Source Software: It looks like the whole issue was due to their use of some weird distro years ago. That article technically doesn't say why they need Windows now, so for all I know they have some new weird requirements I don't know about, but assuming they don't, I think the decision to go to Windows is a horrible idea. They'd be much better off going to Ubuntu instead. Yes I upvoted a post about how Ubuntu would be better than an alternative. Please no heart attacks people.

@wirestyle22 usually they are stored in /usr/local/bin that is why you can run them anywhere

@Obsolesce said in UREs Strike InnoDB on MySQL: @scottalanmiller said in UREs Strike InnoDB on MySQL: @Pete-S said in UREs Strike InnoDB on MySQL: Step one is to remove the drives and clone them with dd or recovery tool to a new drive. You could probably recover 99.9% of the data - if you want. As you can guess from all of their previous issues, they don't want to pay for any recovery, they just want it magically fixed for free. They don't own any storage onto which to clone it, either. Then what is the point of any of it? It appears to have zero value to the business. I said that to them.

@black3dynamite No change, still getting a blank connection. Just a black session.

I can't read the phrase "kernel panic" without thinking of this tune: Youtube Video

No dice just yet, finishing a beer and headed home. Going to see if this can get resolved tomorrow.

@Pete-S Ok, I went ahead and let the installer partition it using the defaults for LVM. Everything is working! The installer creates a small primary partition and installs /boot to it. It then creates an extended partition with the remainder of the drive and slices up logicals out of that for the LVM. It puts “/“ in vg1 as “lv root” and puts /swap in vg1 as well as lv swap”. I was not creating a /boot. Never have. I was just creating a primary for the “/“ and then saving some of it for an extended /swap. I’ve done this forever. It even works in a VM. I have no idea why I couldn’t get it to work on the physical machine.

@dafyre said in PATH Error with TimeScaleDB-Tune on Fedora 30: then why are you even using it? Capacity Planning, for example.

So how we did it the last place I worked. We used a mix of X2Go, X-11 forwarding/MobaXTerm, and RDP. It depended on the user as to how they wanted to do it. RDP gave them a full desktop since X2Go couldn't any longer on GNOME 3. X2Go gave them just applications from a menu to pick. People who were used to the cli used X-11 forwarding because it's what they were used to.

This is the provider I use to clone KVM guests with Terraform https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt

@scottalanmiller said in Tracking Down Ubuntu BASH Session Closing: @matteo-nunziati said in Tracking Down Ubuntu BASH Session Closing: @scottalanmiller said in Tracking Down Ubuntu BASH Session Closing: If I use zsh, I'm good. If I enter BASH from zsh, I get kicked out after several seconds. Definitely is something to do with BASH. Stupid tryout: use bash and then enter zsh before being kicked out. Still out? To understand if it is the firing of bash itself or the stay in bash... No, the underlying bash remains until the ZSH closes. Same as if you were running top from it, for example. So basically bash is able to run long running jobs with your user... It's the interactivity with the shell to be broken... Meh. Sorry the thread is long, did you mention any test from zsh with: Bash <-- ok this kills the session Bash -i any difference??? Bash -l ??? bash --norc bash --noprofile From bashman page

@wrx7m said in Configure Nginx as Reverse Proxy for ScreenConnect to Enable Lets Encrypt: Less to that than I thought there would be. It's surprisingly simple and basic. It's really just passing one port to another, and using SSL. About the most basic setup you can have.

I went to MicroCenter tonight and was looking at laptops. I had a salesperson ask what I was looking for. I got a strange look when I said I wanted W10 Home cause it would get wiped anyway. I don't think she thought I was serious.

It is also a free trial weekend for the game on Steam, for anyone wanting to fire it up and see what they think.

I've been using Duplicati where I need a standalone backup of a thing. Web based management interface makes it super simple to manage.

To add to this- I have an error that started appearing after updating their Fedora 29 and 30 instances. Further testing found that the error appears in different regions using their server type template installers or even a custom iso option that I used with net install. All I have to do is deploy, run dnf update and reboot. The error is present in every boot after the update. https://mangolassi.it/topic/19903/fedora-29-and-30-edac-skx-can-t-get-tolm-tohm-error-on-vultr

Vultr got back to me last week with an email - "Hello, We apologize for the delayed response to this ticket, while we investigated this matter further. We are continuing to review our OS template and application images, and should be applying comprehensive changes across all available deploy images in the near future. Your continued patience and understanding is appreciated in the meantime. If you have any followup questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out."

@Pete-S said in Wget - Download a Web Dashboard For Local Viewing?: Here is Firefox headless mode: Firefox uses the same browser, just run with the headless switch. Works from version 57 and newer. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Headless_mode Thanks. I won't be able to use this with brightsign, but it might work if I have to run windows for a site that I can't view a public dashboard.

I know you were just explaining how to do it but this is a simple task with Ansible. - name: Ensure user exists user: name: Joe state: present password: "password_hash" groups: wheel, libvirt Instead of needing the hash up front you can do things like: {{ Password1234 | password_hash('sha512') }}

@scottalanmiller said in Linux CP command - Estimate MBs: You can use cp and see progress using a separate tool, like progress. But cp itself can't do it. Gotcha.

Okay so figured it out with this guide. From Windows administrative Powershell ssh-keygen type C:\Users\<username>\.ssh\id_rsa.pub | ssh [email protected] 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys' Exit administrative Powershell Open Powershell ssh [email protected] Logged in.

@black3dynamite said in Salt - Can't Connect to Minions After Adding Them to Master: I sometimes have to add --timeout 60 so I can see a response salt FP01.domain.local test.ping --timeout 60 Seems to be working. I think that it was the firewall needing the exception AND using the --timeout 60 Thanks!

I've done both. I tend to like MariaDB / MySQL better because that is what I'm more comfy with.
