[Bug 515298] [NEW] On Subversion config doc, suggest WebDAV conf go in sites-availsble

2010-01-31 Thread ramorrismorris
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

The recommendation in
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/subversion.html is to put the
WebDAV  element directly into the apache2 httpd.conf.
Wouldn't it provide more flexibility to deposit it as a file in sites-
enabled? This makes it easier to turn it on and off in an apache2
supporting several services.  On the other hand, if this is a bad idea,
perhaps the doc deserves a comment, since it seems a natural thing to
do.

[Bug 411856] Re: Lame default for memcached in karmic

2009-12-24 Thread ramorrismorris
The symptom for me was that my mediawiki installation came to a crawl
immediately after upgrading to 9.10.  The upgrade was a sequence from
8.04, 8.10, 9.04 and I didn't test mediawiki on the intermediate steps,
so I am not sure if the upgrade path is implicated, or the karma upgrade
itself.  It's hard to imagine only a few reports of this issue if it
were widespread.

Adjusting /etc/default/memcached to hold

ENABLE_MEMCACHED=yes

and restarting memcached seems to be satisfactory

[Bug 447757] [NEW] rapidsvn seg faults on clicking on existing bookmarks

2009-10-09 Thread ramorrismorris
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rapidsvn

For rapidsvn 0.9.6-1 this bug has been reported in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=542364 where it is
claimed that the current 0.9.10 fixes the problem in that environment.

BTW, the app has no "Help->About->Report a Problem" in the version in
Jaunty.

This seems to have happened in more than one even older release of
rapidsvn, at least in some distros. I do not find a report of it on
Januty for rapidsvn 0.9.6-1

I find this tool very important for moving things around to rearrange an
svn repository. Command line svn is fine--even better--for checkout and
commit, but rearranging a tree is more easily done with a gui.  The only
alternative seems to be kdesvn, but on Jaunty that also seems to have
some UI that doesn't work very well for this task.

[Bug 183933] Re: RFE php-Fileinfo package

2008-01-17 Thread ramorrismorris
OK, using pear directly on the file requires the php5-dev and libmagic-
dev ubuntu packages, and then pear install from a local file succeeds.

But was this a good idea? I would have been more comfortable if this were an 
included package in the distro.
This dependency was less than obvious to a php/ubuntu newbie, and I am nervous 
about whether the consequent rebuild of the php support has left me in 
uncharted waters. (And how I would know?)

[Bug 183933] RFE php-Fileinfo package

2008-01-17 Thread ramorrismorris
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

Per #93603, this is a separate request for the php Fileinfo package.

Fileinfo manages the mime-types of files. It is (optionally) used by the
MIT DSpace app to control file upload types based on a blacklist instead
of a whitelist, thereby easing management.

There may be dependencies. When I downloaded
http://pecl.php.net/get/Fileinfo-1.0.4.tgz and executed pear
Fileinfo-1.0.4.tgz pear filed with:


3 files building

Re: [Bug 177685] Re: In gutsy, cannot change tomcat5.5 user from tomcat55

2008-01-03 Thread ramorrismorris
Matti-

One use case is to run multiple tomcats at different ports, with
resources accessible to one but not to the other.

A related use case is to run an application made up of several
resources only one of which is in the tomcat webapp tree and which are
owned by a unix user. DSpace is the example that motivated my original
report. The DSpace installation instructions recommend having tomcat
run as the same user that owns two DSpace directory trees (one the
source tree, one created from it at install time) besides the webapp.
In my case, I am prepared to dedicate the tomcat to the DSpace
installation at the moment, but want to survive both the ability to
run another tomcat and the ability to add servlets unrelated to DSpace
once I understand enough about DSpace to decide whether that is wise
or unwise.  My choice was to let the DSpace resources be owned by the
default tomcat user and live with the consequences, if any, of having
all my servlets in a single rights management space, or isolate the
DSpace in a tomcat with a unique user, letting other tomcats run with
the default user if appropriate.

All that said, the /etc/init.d startup script clearly intends to let
you set the tomcat execution user, it just seems to not quite change
the ownership of all the resources correctly.
On the surface, I would have said that the chown at line 149 needs to
be recursive, at least as to conf but probably the other
subdirectories too in case the user is changed after first use.   If I
recall correctly the major failure was inability to access down in
conf/Catalina after changing the default user in the script, but I
recall that just changing ownership recursively down conf/Catalina
simply exposed another failure, so my report was "various failures". I
apologize for the vagueness of that.

[Bug 177685] In gutsy, cannot change tomcat5.5 user from tomcat55

2007-12-20 Thread ramorrismorris
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tomcat5.5

Stop tomcat5.5 In /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5, change TOMCAT_USER to an
unprivileged user and start  tomcat5.5. start  will fail with various
permission failures on files which are still owned by user tomcat55.

The package is 5.5.25-1ubuntu1

I began systematically changing ownership recursively on the directories
in CATALINA_BASE, but was reluctant to chown  -R -L because the symlink
structure is so complex. At one point (probably after chowning logs/,
conf/  temp/ and work/) I reached a state where tomcat would run, but
only static pages (e.g. docs) but not any jsp would display. In
particular, the front page was blank.  Adding -debug to the jsvc call in
the startup script did not seem to result in any failures being logged.

[Bug 152537] Re: After update from Feisty to Gutsy RC, print jobs fail: "/usr/lib/cups/backend/mfp failed"

2007-11-23 Thread ramorrismorris
I have the AppArmor problem with my HP LJ 1012 printer. The aa-complain
cupsys freed up the printer. I had no trouble with samba visibility
during the time that the printer was shown as stopped (and shown stopped
by samba as well as the gnome printer manager. )

FWIW, upon gutsy installation, I couldn't make the printer work until I
fetched hplip 2.7.10 from http://hplip.sourceforge.net/ . On the other
hand, I didn't know about this aa issue until my 1012 stopped apparently
on its own. So it is conceivable that the mere act of installing a new
hplip had the effect of resetting aa.
