| edoreld (~Adium@p57A09A48.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) joined #fai. |
| 08:13 JulienDev | I resolved my problem of yesterday, by default, inet.d is listening on ipv6 |
| 08:15 JulienDev | I just changed the /etc/inetd.conf with " tftp dgram udp4 wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /srv/tftp/fai" |
| 08:17 edoreld | cool :) |
| 08:17 JulienDev | yes but I have a new problem :-p |
| 08:18 edoreld | don't say you have a problem, say your problem |
| 08:18 edoreld | :) |
| 08:18 JulienDev | I have a new error "NFS over TCP not available from 172.27.231.18" |
| 08:19 edoreld | http://bit.ly/RNrK6 |
| 08:19 JulienDev | yes already checked |
| 08:19 edoreld | :( |
| 08:19 edoreld | sounds nasty |
| 08:19 edoreld | personnally no idea |
| 08:25 kai_bo | @JulienDev: Have you modified your /etc/exports for nfs? |
| 08:26 JulienDev | no |
| 08:26 edoreld | check it |
| 08:26 JulienDev | I'm in |
| ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) joined #fai. |
| 08:26 edoreld | does it have the two lines of export that it should have? |
| 08:27 JulienDev | yes but with a wrong ip address |
| 08:27 edoreld | there u go |
| 08:28 JulienDev | it's ok |
| 08:28 JulienDev | I need to restart any service? |
| 08:29 edoreld | yes |
| 08:29 edoreld | nfs-kernel whatever |
| 08:29 edoreld | ^_^ |
| 08:32 mgoetze | JulienDev: if you want to be on the safe side, restart portmap, then nfs-common, then nfs-kernel-server. check whether the current configuration is correct with 'showmount -e' |
| 08:33 edoreld | Is it possible to make interactive packages (e.g: samba pops up a screen so u can choose a couple of options) non-interactive for fai installation? |
| 08:40 JulienDev | not better |
| teratoma (~teratoma@i.dont.get.mad.i.get.stabby.net) left irc: Quit: leaving |
| 08:43 edoreld | what is the erro now? |
| 08:43 JulienDev | I have "mount call failed : 13" |
| 08:44 kai_bo | @edoreld: google for dpkg or apt and non-interactive; but I`m installing samba packages and there is no interactive screen during install and as far as i know we haven`t changed anything in fai for that.... |
| 08:44 edoreld | kai_bo: was just testing it, it seems fai makes it non-interactive |
| 08:44 mgoetze | edoreld: read the fai guide, and also debconf(7) |
| 08:44 edoreld | kai_bo: but installing from command line is another story |
| ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds |
| 08:44 edoreld | thanks, but luckily fai makes all the work for me :D |
| 08:45 mgoetze | you should read debconf(7) anyway, if you want to use fai to maximum effect |
| 08:45 edoreld | alright |
| 08:45 edoreld | Will od :) |
| 08:45 edoreld | will do :) |
| 08:45 edoreld | hmm no "man 7 debconf" ... |
| 08:46 edoreld | was missing debconf-doc package ^_^ |
| 08:47 kai_bo | @JulienDev: this usually indicates a permission problem, for example your client tries to mount something your server does not export |
| 08:48 kai_bo | and no it is breakfast time for me ^^ |
| 08:49 JulienDev | humm ok |
| ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) joined #fai. |

| 09:07 JulienDev | Is-it a tftp problem or nfs problem? |
| 09:09 Mrfai | error 13 = NFS |
| 09:22 JulienDev | I had an error in /etc/exports |
| 09:23 JulienDev | but I have a now error |
| 09:23 JulienDev | nfs : server 172.27.231.18 not responding, timed out |
| 09:23 JulienDev | mount: I/O error |
| 09:24 edoreld | is 172.27.231.18 the interface through wich the NFS server should be serving? |
| 09:24 edoreld | is that the one connected to the fai client? |
| 09:24 JulienDev | yep |
| 09:24 edoreld | -.- |
| 09:24 JulienDev | but after mount: I/O error, it's written done |

| 09:29 charles | Hi, this is the senario we have. server with 6 disk bays, bay 1 will always contain the OS. Disk bay 2 to 6 (DATA only) plain ext3 disk, but not always bays from 2 to 6 are used, sometimes we can have 2 data disk or 4 data disk, what is the best way to configure disk_config, thank you. |
| 09:39 sep | just have different disk_config/files names logically and make sure the right servers get the right classes assigned that match the file in disk_config |
| 09:40 sep | eg disk_config/SINGLEOS and have servers that you only have 1 disk in get the class SINGLEOS. if i have some disk configs that are uniqe for a machine i usualy use the disk_config/serverhostname to make it easy to find it in the disk_config dir. |

| 10:08 charles | I did not undestand point 2 |
| 10:12 charles | SEP : sorry I as understand I need to compile 1 iso but menu of six item ie 1 : server 1 Disk, 2 : server 2 disks etc .. |

| 11:33 edoreld | damn I'm trying to run a simple script on "demohost", I named it 40-test and put it on $FAI/scripts/DEMO. I see it running when the client gets installed, but it always give some kind of error O_o ( FAILED with exit code 1) |
| 11:34 edoreld | and the script is just a simple one |
| 11:34 mgoetze | edoreld: so, read your logfiles... |
| 11:34 edoreld | echo "test" > /home/testfile |
| 11:34 edoreld | hm ok I'll check |
| 11:34 mgoetze | edoreld: you may mean $target/home/testfile |
| 11:34 edoreld | $target? |
| 11:34 mgoetze | edoreld: or possible $rootcmd echo ... |
| 11:34 edoreld | erhm... |
| 11:34 edoreld | what's the value of $rootcmd? |
| 11:35 mgoetze | depends... |
| 11:35 edoreld | ok.. |
| 11:35 edoreld | then why $target/home... ? |
| 11:35 edoreld | if im executing from client, aren't i supposed to have access to the filesystem? |
| 11:35 mgoetze | if you are doing an installation then $rootcmd is probably "chroot $target" |
| 11:36 edoreld | hmmm... |
| 11:37 edoreld | supposedly the installation logs are in /tmp/fai but nothing is there for me |
| 11:37 edoreld | found some logs somewhere else...let me see |
| 11:38 edoreld | log says same thing I'm afraid :/ |
| 11:39 edoreld | FAILED with exit code 1 |
| 11:39 mgoetze | /var/log/fai/current/shell.log |
| 11:39 edoreld | says |
| 11:39 edoreld | read-only file system |
| 11:40 edoreld | that's why it fails |
| 11:40 mgoetze | yes, as i said... |
| 11:41 edoreld | did you say |
| 11:41 edoreld | $rootcmd echo "test" ... will work? |
| 11:42 mgoetze | maybe... you want $target, really |
| 11:42 edoreld | ok, so $target |
| 11:42 edoreld | but if I want to run more than 1 commands? |
| 11:42 edoreld | like |
| 11:43 edoreld | echo "whatever" |
| 11:43 edoreld | cp whatever whatever |
| 11:43 edoreld | etc lots more |
| 11:43 mgoetze | man fcopy |
| 11:43 edoreld | I'll take a look, ^_^ |
| salli_merci (~i.like@141.28.72.139) left irc: Quit: client.close(); |
| 11:49 edoreld | hmm using $target echo "test" > / does not work either :/ |
| 11:51 mgoetze | i told you how to use it |
| 11:51 kai_bo | echo "test" > $target/home/testfile |
| 11:57 edoreld | ah |
| 11:57 edoreld | I'll try that, thank you ^_^ |
| 11:59 kai_bo | @edoreld: I would suggest you also better take a look at the scripts already provided with fai; Some are really self-explaning about which variables and command are availabe and how they are used |
| 12:00 edoreld | kai_bo: of course, great idea! :D |
| 12:01 edoreld | kai_bo: es ist freitag, my mind is dancing on a club already :) some sleep wouldn't be bad as well :P |
| 12:03 kai_bo | sleep is absolutely overrated...just get more coffee ;) |
