[Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Matthew Nichols]

Hi,

I had an issue with the local time on my astlinux box reporting in UTC
after the upgrade. Previously it was in PST/PDT. I read from the
release notes that TZ_TIMEZONE is no longer required, but I had
problems getting the timezone right.

In the end this is what I had to do:

1. edit /etc/rc and comment out the following:

 #uclibc style TZ support
  #if [ -z "$TZ_TIMEZONE" -a -f /etc/localtime ]; then
  #  TZ_TIMEZONE=$(tail -n1 /etc/localtime)
  #fi

What was happening here is that the env variable $TZ_TIMEZONE didn't
exist after a reboot, and because /etc/localtime points to a valid
file, I was getting the following set:
pbx ~ # tail -n1 /etc/localtime
??eGY?e턠g';?g?f?i?i?H?j???k?e l?mvG n??oV) p??q65ԐV?: X?X? Y??Z??[޵\??
]??^d? _?y`Mޠa???b-??cgw?d/??EDm?E?? G-?Gӵ I
  ro?s? tO?t?
?v8??v??x??x?͠y???z???{?f?|~??}?H?~^s??*

PDTPSTPWTPPTpbx ~ #

2. What I did was to write the file /mnt/kd/TZ with the following content:

PST8PDT,M3.2.0/2,M11.1.0/2

and then /etc/rc will copy /mnt/kd/TZ to /tmp/etc/TZ as per:

if [ -n "$TZ_TIMEZONE" ]; then
echo "$TZ_TIMEZONE" > /tmp/etc/TZ
  elif [ -f /mnt/kd/TZ ]; then
cp /mnt/kd/TZ /tmp/etc/TZ
  elif [ -f /stat/etc/TZ ]; then
cp /stat/etc/TZ /tmp/etc/TZ
  fi

3. The last part was to put in symlink for /etc/TZ pointing to
/tmp/etc/TZ and I fixed the problem.

Am I missing something here or is this problem with /etc/rc incorrect?
Having TZ_TIMEZONE in /mnt/kd/rc.local doesn't make any difference. Is
this a bug?

Thanks

Matt

[Astlinux-users] Astlinux web interface still has no provision for SMTP_TLS and SMTP_CA

[Matthew Nichols]

Hi,

Is there any plans to incorporate SMTP_TLS and SMTP_CA in the web gui
so it can be saved along with the rest of the configuration? I still
have to add these two values into /mnt/kd/rc.local.d/user.conf so that
on startup the /etc/init.d/misc will build /tmp/etc/msmtprc correctly
for Gmail support.

Having this fixed will help consolidate configuration.

Thanks

Matt

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Tom Chadwin]

Hi Matthew

Without wanting to confuse matters too much in my ignorance, here are a
couple of points:

1. Never edit any non /mnt/kd files (there are two exceptions: see
http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:tt_editable_files). The majority of the
Astlinux file system is rebuilt via script on reboot, and many system and
Asterisk files are in fact symlinks.

2. When you use the GUI to change timezone settings, this writes to
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/gui.network.conf - did you check what was present in this
location, if anything?

It can be confusing to work out exactly where the .conf files which are used
actually are. See the note highlighted in yellow on the DAHDI page:

http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:dahdi

I've certainly managed to get correct timezone settings entirely via the
GUI, never touching enything via CLI.

Hope this helps

Tom

PS  An outside chance - is your problem definitely with the system time, and
not just with the timestamping of CDR entries? See
http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:faq#the_cdr_tab_gives_time_in_the_wrong_time
zone

Re: [Astlinux-users] [Astlinux-devel] AstLinux 0.7.0 Released

[Tom Chadwin]

Just to confirm: prior to the upgrade, the NICs were:

eth0Berofix
eth1INTIF
eth2EXTIF
br0 eth0 eth1

After upgrading to 0.7, they were:

eth0INTIF
eth1EXTIF
eth4Berofix
br0 eth0 eth1

So, changing the bridge to eth0 eth4, and changing EXTIF to eth1 got
everything back up and running. Has anyone else seen this behaviour, if they
have NICs using different drivers? Just wondering whether/how to document
this.

Anyway, thanks again, everyone. Not a totally smooth upgrade, but all is
well now.

Tom

Re: [Astlinux-users] [Astlinux-devel] AstLinux 0.7.0 Released

[Tom Chadwin]

OK, I found that I had some IPSec configuration left over from when I was
testing that feature. Disabling IPSec via the GUI (and, in the case of one
of the boxes, sorting out the order of the NICs as per a previous message)
then seems to have removed the error. A GUI firewall save and then restart
now gives no errors or warnings.

Thanks yet again for the help. I've got one remaining box down after the
upgrade, but it's 50 miles away, so it will have to wait till next week.
I'll report back if there is anything relevant with that installation as far
as upgrading goes.

Tom

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Lonnie Abelbeck]

Matt,

I appears you are using the web interface, in the Network tab -> "Network Time 
Settings:" what Timezone City did you choose?

To test I chose "America/Los_Angeles" from the menu, then rebooted, and...

pbx ~ # tail -n1 /etc/localtime
PST8PDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0

which is used as TZ_TIMEZONE.

There are a handful of cities around the world that TZ_TIMEZONE=$(tail -n1 
/etc/localtime) is not a part of the timezone data, for those users TZ_TIMEZONE 
must be set in "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf" (for web interface users, Network 
tab -> User System Variables: {Edit User Variables}) or "/mnt/kd/rc.conf" (if 
"/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d" does not exist)

Matt, please revert your changes:

$ rm /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/rc

and give it another try.

Lonnie

Re: [Astlinux-users] mini_httpd how to configure?

[Chris Abnett]

So the way I understand it is this:

1] /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/gui.network.conf takes #1 precedence over any other..
only variables contained??  Or does it exclusively use this if the FILE
exists? Meaning if I have a variable in /mnt/kd/rc.conf but is NOT in
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/gui.network.conf will that variable be ignored or will it
be looked at?

2] if there is nothing in rc.conf.d then /mnt/kd/rc.conf is used??

3] NEVER edit /etc/rc.conf
4] NEVER edit /stat/etc/rc.conf

I have to get this right because a new customer with multiple sites we will
have MODEM DIALUP CONSOLE access ONLY!  As the systems will be running
standalone with T1 and POTS to the PSTN..  only IP phones and analog sets
for extensions...  

Eventually we will have IP access but not for a while..  so that means all
MAC work will have to be done by hand and not by a GUI...

We may have OUTBOUND internet access for ftp-ing backups or file transfers
but as of right now no inbound..

Christopher,

Never edit the /stat/etc/rc.conf file (or /etc/rc.conf for that matter). 
  The 'rc.conf' file is generated from one of two sources. 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf or the concatenation of several '.conf' files in 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/  If /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ exists, this takes precedence.

Documentation for that needs to be added to the wiki.  I thought it was 
there already, but perhaps someone can get a full explanation of the 
'configuration' files added tonight.

Sorry for the confusion.

Tom,

As Michael suggested, you could have simply edited the 
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" file to make your previous 
interface name mapping occur as it was in 0.6.

This is the purpose of this new feature.

In 0.6 the interface ordering was determined by the order of the modprobe's 
(mostly), the "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" file allows explicit 
control of the ethX name by the MAC address of the interface.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Astlinux web interface still has no provision for SMTP_TLS and SMTP_CA

Matt,

First, you may have a typo, the SMTP_TLS and SMTP_CA variables must be defined 
in "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf" (not rc.local.d as you stated)

Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: [Astlinux-users] mini_httpd how to configure?

[Tom Chadwin]

Hi Chris

If this is over-cautious or inaccurate, I'm sure someone will correct me:

1. If /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ exists, /mnt/kd/rc.conf is ignored.

2. /etc/rc.conf is a symlink to /tmp/etc/rc.conf, so obviously cannot be
edited

3. /tmp/etc/rc.conf is generated afresh each reboot - so do not edit it -
written either with defaults, or using values from the /mnt/kd files
(according to point 1 above)

Hope this helps

Tom

Chris,

Assuming the directory "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/" exists, the system configuration is 
the concatenation of all the files "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/*.conf", then appended to 
the default configuration, "/stat/etc/rc.conf", to generate the system 
"/etc/rc.conf".

Hence, if variables are defined more than once, the filename with the largest 
alphanumeric name in "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/" will have precedence.  Our standard 
file for the highest precedence is "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf" .

The web interface generates many different config files of the form 
"gui.*.conf", and can also allow the user to edit "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf".

Clear?

Yes and Yes.

Re: [Astlinux-users] [Astlinux-devel] AstLinux 0.7.0 Released

[Tom Chadwin]

Yes, I understand all this, and appreciate I could simply have changed the
persistent net rules file instead - it's six and two threes. What I am
driving at is that this issue downed one box, and is currently undocumented.
It is also confusing, because I have another box with the same
configuration, and that did not go down with the upgrade.

You and Michael have given me the explanation, and I have recitifed the
issue personally, but I was hoping to be able to document it, if it is
confirmed as an issue. I also should ask the question: is there anything I
could have done to prevent the issue from happening in the first place?

Good question...

*Normally* the 0.6 network interface ordering should be replicated in 0.7, 
assuming the drivers were modprobe'd in /etc/rc.modules in the same order.

In your case, it appears your "Berofix" driver was loaded first in 0.6 and last 
in 0.7.

In 0.7 'udev' is used to discover devices, not so much in 0.6, so there is a 
difference.

I can't say I understand why the ordering changed on one of your boxes and not 
the other.

We do need to add documentation on the 
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" file, particularly when moving a CF 
card to a different box or replacing a network card. Possibly under "Tips and 
Tricks" ?

If you move the CF card to another box, it is best to remove the 
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" file before moving the CF card.  If 
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" does not exist on first boot, it 
will be automatically created.

If you replace a network PCI card/USB device/etc., edit the 
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" file to reflect the new MAC address.

Lonnie,

Thanks, Yes it was a typo - the entries are in /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf.
It was very late at night when I wrote this email.

What I am requesting is can this be a part of the normal External SMTP smart
host configuration under Networks on that page rather than having to enter
these entries in the user.conf?

Thanks

Matt,

Yes, I understand... if I get a couple more requests, I'll add it.  I don't 
want to clutter the Network tab with options very few users use, given the 
{Edit User Variables} button adds the functionality on the same page.

Your request is added to my list.

[Astlinux-users] AstLinux 0.7.0 fresh install..

[Zviad Sulaberidze]

Hi,

sorry for my trivial question, I have MiniITX box with 512MB card in CF 
slot (hda) and just connected CF-IDE adapter with 4GB MicroDrive, where 
I want to install 0.7.0 (hdc). I downloaded .img file and made:

# dd if=astlinux-0.7.0-asterisk14.img of=/dev/dhc
which gives me:
dd: /dev/dhc: No space left on device


I know this is not astlinux specific problem, it's rather my problem 
related to Linux...

if anybody can hint, if I am missing something? /dev/hdc is not mounted, 
has one type 83 partition, without filesystem (not formatted)


best
Zvi

[Darrick Hartman]

I thought I sent this out before, but just incase I didn't, AstLinux 
will be the topic for tomorrow's VUC call.

http://www.voipusersconference.org/

If you're available to join the call, please call in using ZipDX.  It 
would be great to have not only the developers on the call, but some end 
users who can speak to their experiences as well.  The call officially 
starts at 12:00 EST but the conference bridge is usually up around 11:40 
EST.

sip:200...@login.zipdx.com
ZipDX PSTN: +1 567 252 2286 iNum: +883 5100 123 94882

You can even connect via Skype:

http://www.voipusersconference.org/how-to-participate/

Hope to hear you on the call.

Zvi,

Looks like a typo, maybe /dev/hdc not /dev/dhc

We have all done it. :-)

Out of interest, what should /etc/localtime look like, and is it a symlink?
Same for /etc/TZ?

"/etc/localtime" is a symlink to "/tmp/etc/localtime" which is also a 
symlink to "/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin" in my case.

"/etc/TZ" does not exist (but I still have an /mnt/kd/TZ which may be 
left over from an old installation).

Matt,

Yes, both /etc/localtime and /etc/TZ are symlinks.

Try...
--
$ find /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/blkid.tab
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/shadow
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/blkid.tab.old
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev/rules.d
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/shadow-
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/rc.modules
--

If you have any more files than shown above, they probably should be removed.

Like what Tom stated:

Michael,

"/etc/TZ" should exist.

$ ls -l /etc/TZ
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   11 Jan 21 07:20 /etc/TZ -> /tmp/etc/TZ

You probably don't want "/mnt/kd/TZ" anymore, it should be automatic. (though 
it still works)

Yes, I did not look correctly (capital letters :-)). It indeed does 
exist as say.

Re: [Astlinux-users] [Astlinux-devel] AstLinux 0.7.0 Released

The builtin NIC's should *always* be 0..N, and the fact that they weren't was a 
bug in the previous versions.

 Oddly (and thankfully) I seem to be able to SSH to INTIF, though.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Matthew Nichols]

OK so I have performed these steps, and I still have problems.

>From /etc/rc,
#uclibc style TZ support
  if [ -z "$TZ_TIMEZONE" -a -f /etc/localtime ]; then
TZ_TIMEZONE=$(tail -n1 /etc/localtime)
  fi
  if [ -n "$TZ_TIMEZONE" ]; then
echo "$TZ_TIMEZONE" > /tmp/etc/TZ
  elif [ -f /mnt/kd/TZ ]; then
cp /mnt/kd/TZ /tmp/etc/TZ
  elif [ -f /stat/etc/TZ ]; then
cp /stat/etc/TZ /tmp/etc/TZ
  fi

/etc/localtime points to a binary file, so i cannot see how it gets the
value PST8PDT from /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles

I have defaulted everything back and it still does not seem to work
correctly.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Philip A. Prindeville]

Let's start with something simple.

What timezone are you in, and what's the value of $TZ_TIMEZONE?

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Lonnie Abelbeck]

Matt,

I'll ask again...

In the Network tab -> "Network Time Settings:" what Timezone City did you 
choose?

To test I chose "America/Los_Angeles" from the menu, then rebooted, and...

pbx ~ # tail -n1 /etc/localtime
PST8PDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0

Is the output of...
$ find /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/

as expected, from my previous post?

Matt,

I have another test for you...

Does...
$ find /oldroot/mnt/asturw/usr/share/zoneinfo/

return anything?

If so, remove the stale unionfs overlay for the TZ data, and reboot.

$ rm -r /oldroot/mnt/asturw/usr/share/zoneinfo/

 /etc/localtime points to a binary file, so i cannot see how it gets the 
 value PST8PDT from /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles
 
 I have defaulted everything back and it still does not seem to work 
 correctly.

 What timezone are you in, and what's the value of $TZ_TIMEZONE?

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Matthew Nichols]

Hi Lonnie,

that has fixed the issue:

pbx ~ # date
Thu Jan 21 13:59:53 PST 2010
pbx ~ # cat /etc/TZ
PST8PDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0
pbx ~ #

Thanks for that. Is there any way to clean up this leftover unionfs stuff?

Thanks

Matt

 The value of TZ_TIMEZONE after a reboot of the Soekris is the value of

Well Matt, I suspect you put those files there. :-)  It may be long enough ago 
you forgot about them.

To look for stale 'cruft', try...

$ find /oldroot/mnt/asturw/ | grep -v '/oldroot/mnt/asturw/mnt/kd'

You should not get too much more than the following...
--
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/lost+found
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/blkid.tab
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/shadow
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/blkid.tab.old
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev/rules.d
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/shadow-
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/rc.modules
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/stat
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/stat/var
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/stat/var/www
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/stat/var/www/admin
/oldroot/mnt/asturw/stat/var/www/admin/.htpasswd
---

Do some cleanup if necessary.

Years ago you may of needed to manually update the 'zoneinfo data' before there 
was a new version of AstLinux available, and in the past the upgrade process 
was somewhat painful.

But today, Darrick regularly puts out new versions, and the upgrade process is 
straightforward via the repository.

In the future, there should be no reason to manually overlay data over the 
shipping filesystem.

Glad all is good.

Lonnie

Re: [Astlinux-users] Timezone issues upgrading to astlinux 0.7.0

[Matthew Nichols]

I don't recall putting these files there, but I have been using
astlinux for quite a while, since 0.4 days. I have never knowingly
installed anything other than the official astlinux distributions on
this box.

Anyhow

Thanks for the help

Matt
