[Bug 436041] Re: Access Denied but TSC confirms it should not be.

2009-11-30 Thread DrC
OK - but log.smbclient is 618.8 Mb.I have grep-ed it down to show
that there is no match in the log for the file names that were not
backed up.  The upload includes the 200 lines preceding the occurrence
of each file that was backed up from the directory in question.  If 200
isn't enough I can easily extend it.

Notes about the files in the tgz:
pdrive-backup shows what most of the other files are (They all accumulate 
history - you are probably only interested in the tail ends of these)
extractor is run to cut the log.smbclient down to size, and makes extracts.

Oops - I had forgotten there are two threads.  The last upload belongs
with 437944 - I have posted it there as well so this one can be deleted.

I will run the backup with the same log level tomorrow (Friday) assuming
I remember... but it really will be really big - there are a lot of
files in the backup.

Chris.

Sorry - I don't know.  This is a new backup protocol following two bad
experiences with tape mechanisms, so I have only been doing it for a
couple of months, and only on this version.

If there is still a gutsy box around at work I will try the test script
on that next week.

Backup still showing the same problem of Access Denied.  There is
nothing in /var/log/samba.   Smb.conf log level says it is for logging
samba server errors, and I'm only using the client.  Have I been looking
at the wrong config file (I can't see one for smbclient) or is there a
log file elsewhere I should be looking for.   I can't see one.

2009-10-04 Thread DrC
Sorry for the delay - day job intruded.

The server event log has nothing near the time in question, and nothing I can 
relate to Access Denied.
No problem with /dev/sda size - except my geriatric amnesia.
To avoid red herrings, my /etc/hosts file did not have the server name;  name 
resolution must have been used.
Debug level 3 set in client smb.conf but nothing found in /var/log/samba.

I have restarted the client (sadly following an Ubuntu update that
included a Samba security fix) and will recheck the backup and
system logs when I go back in.

2009-09-28 Thread DrC
Assuming 'this' is the Access Denied issue...
I will check the server event log in the morning.  The backup concerned is 
multi-gigabyte and takes nearly five hours.  Needless to say it runs overnight.
I will run it tomorrow with debug level 3 assuming my aged memory cells 
remember after work tomorrow.   I don't know from memory how many thousand 
files are involved, and the problem is on the W folders at the back end of the 
alphabet.  If you have any suggestion about how big the level 3 log is per 1000 
files it might help me to make sure there is enough disk space on the client.   
I might need to relocate the log file away from the crowded 20Gb system drive 
onto the large backup drive.  But I'll try anyway if you can't get back.

Chris

PS If it is the smbclient -L bug, I now have a number for it, viz
437944.

The smbclient -L test consistently gives an error message when addressing my 
server by its IP address.  I will open this as a separate bug.
To avoid red herrings, my /etc/hosts file did not have an entry for the server. 
 Access by name used a name resolution service.

[Bug 437944] [NEW] Samba session request failure when using IP address

2009-09-27 Thread DrC
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

smbclient -L consistently throws session request errors when addressing a 
Windows2003 server by its IP address.
(spawned from Ubuntu bug - see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/436041 and 
attached screenshot for serve details)

To check consistency I ran a test script three times.  The script first
uses the server name, then its IP address.  The script with console
output appended, and the two redirected output files are attached.

[Bug 436041] Re: Access Denied but TSC confirms it should not be.

2009-09-25 Thread DrC
I routinely use its IP address when accessing this server from my Ubuntu
box.  Windows, of course, uses DNS or netbios name resolution.

I ran the smbclient -L test twice - once in each mode.  I did this in a
few spare moments at work, and have only just looked in detail at the
results.

The two results are interestingly different.

If my memory cells hold out until Monday, I will run the test again to
see whether the error messages on the IP-access try are repeatable, or
whether they are the kind of ephemera that make bug-hunting difficult.

Details are in the attachment.

Chris

[Bug 222416] Re: package update-manager 1:0.87.24 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: SystemError in cache.commit(): E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

2008-11-11 Thread DrC
Sorry - I can't say at this distance.  The process was a bit stressful,
it is several months ago, and the only reliable information is the notes
I made at the time, all of which are above.

My initial post says it all, really.   Sorry I can't add to it.  When
asked which config to use, I took the (on screen?) option to look at the
differences, then made a bit of a mess of going back to the select
screen and got told there was a problem.

From general life experience - no special reference to this episode - I
might have double-clicked the Back button, thereby inadvertently
clicking something in the same place on the next screen, or maybe it
just didn't 'Go Back' properly.  I didn't know for sure then, and with
the passage of time a false memory is as likely as any useful
information...

Sorry :(

Chris
