Problem With NFS Sharing Between Two Raspberry Pis

Hello,

I am facing an issue with a filesystem (/dev/sda3); I see space used on it (around 365GB) when I am looking at the host with "df -h" command.

Code:

[root@srv_omega /]# df -h

I have looked if any hidden file might cause the issue, no joy.

Code:

[root@srv_omega /]# pwd

[root@srv_omega /]#  ls -lrtha

So I try to find where the space is used with a "du -sh" command

Code:

So as far as I understand, only /hadoop is a suitable suspect (as cumulative size of all the other folders on "/" are well below the 365GB)

Code:

[root@srv_omega hadoop]# cd /
[root@srv_omega /]# cd /hadoop
[root@srv_omega hadoop]# ls -lrtha

drwxr-xr-x  5 root root 4.0K Nov 19 20:02 disk15
dr-xr-xr-x 27 root root 4.0K Apr 30 15:12 ..

All folders from 1 to 15 are on different filesystems, so the folder disk16 seems to be the only option but there is nothing in it.

Code:

[root@srv_omega hadoop]# cd disk16/
[root@srv_omega disk16]# ls -lrtha
total 8.0K
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 4.0K Jun  5  2014 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4.0K Jun  5  2014 .
[root@srv_omega disk16]#

I just don't get it; no folder seems responsible for the "365Gb"...

Any idea on how I could try to find out where those "365GB" are ?

Hello, this is my first post
First i would like to thank you all for answering other people questions because I've been able to learn from the forum a lot.

I need your help with something.
I have standard output from 'ls -laR /etc' command which looks like this:
Code:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root  29 Apr  1 00:46 .
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root  54 Apr  1 00:43 ..
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 232 Apr  1 00:46 00-keyboard.conf

/etc/xdg:
total 12
drwxr-xr-x.  4 root root   36 Apr  1 00:43 .
drwxr-xr-x. 87 root root 8192 Apr 12 13:53 ..
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root    6 Jun 10  2014 autostart
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root   17 Apr  7 01:25 systemd

by using sed command:
Code:

sed -e '/./!d' -e '/^total/d' -e '/\.$/d' -e 's/:$/\//' list.txt

I have transformed it to the following form:

Code:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 232 Apr  1 00:46 00-keyboard.conf
/etc/xdg/
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root    6 Jun 10  2014 autostart
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root   17 Apr  7 01:25 systemd

and now I would like to achieve absolute paths at the end of each row

Code:

-rw-r--r--.  1 root root  232 Apr  1 00:46 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root    6 Jun 10  2014 /etc/xdg/autostart
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root   17 Apr  7 01:25 /etc/xdg/systemd

How do I join(merge) filenames with corresponding absolute path to their parent directory?



I know how to extract filenames using awk and get this:
Code:

00-keyboard.conf

autostart
systemd

but I don't know what to do next. Should I use some hitech sed option or go for loop or try with arrays? Help. Heeeelp

I'm trying to recreate a relative symlink, to link "asymlink" to "somedir/actualfile" in /root/test/ but its creating 2 symlinks instead.

Code:

[root]# ln -t /root/test/ -s somedir/actualfile asymlink
[root]# ll /root/test/
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   18 Feb 16 06:15 actualfile -> somedir/actualfile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    8 Feb 16 06:15 asymlink -> asymlink
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 16 06:15 somedir

I can do it with
Code:

cd /root/test
ln -s somedir/actualfile asymlink

but I'm trying to avoid the cd, and also avoid using the full path.

Does anyone know why the -t flag isn't working as expected?

I can't seem to mount a CD-R or DVD-R, doesn't matter if it is blank or not.
However, when I use a program such as Brasero, I am able to write to them. I cannot use dd to write to them.

This is the output of trying to mount/unmount.
Code:

root@delarocha-> mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd
mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so.

root@delarocha-> umount /dev/sr0
umount: /dev/sr0: not mounted
root@delarocha-> umount /media/cd
umount: /media/cd: not mounted
root@delarocha-> umount /media/cdrom
umount: /media/cdrom: not mounted

dmesg | tail
Code:

[ 1536.299915] EXT4-fs (sr0): unable to read superblock

I don't think it can be anything wrong with the disk, since it is a untouched disk.
Note: The results of everything(apart from dmesg I would assume), are the same for a CD-R and DVD-R

This is what I get while trying to dd a .iso and .mp4, respectively.

Code:

web@delarocha-> dd if=/dev/sr0 of=~/Downloads/xubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.000377316 s, 0.0 kB/s

0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.000377179 s, 0.0 kB/s

uname -a
Code:

Linux delarocha 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt2-1 (2014-12-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I used lsblk when I close the disk tray, it shows it mounted.
Code:

sr0                     11:0    1     2K  0 rom

But after I use the dd command to write the .iso, it disappears.

Here is my /etc/fstab
Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices

/dev/sdb1       /media/usb0     auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0

I have also tried replacing /dev/sr0 in the above commands with /media/cdrom0.

There's something really weird happening with permissions on a directory in linux. I have the directory /dir

Code:

ls -ld /dir
drwxrwxrwx. 2 root root 4096 Jan  8 00:06 dir
chmod 2777 /dir [this sets the setgid bit on]
ls -ld /dir
drwxrwsrwx. 2 root root 4096 Jan  8 00:06 /dir

And this is what I expect it to do.
However, when I change it to setid (WITHOUT setgid), it simply doesn't work. Instead of overwriting, it cumulates:
Code:

chmod 4777 /dir [for setting setuid bit on]
drwsrwsrwx. 2 root root 4096 Jan  8 00:06 /dir

As you can see, the setgid bit is still on together with the setuid! However, if I run:
Code:

chmod -s /dir

then the file has a 0777 permission.

And then again, if I change its permission to 4777 (so setuid):
Code:

chmod 4777 /dir
drwsrwxrwx. 2 root root 4096 Jan  8 00:06 /dir

it acts normally. So the same chmod 4777 acts differently in two different contexts.

I really can't understand it. Basically, I cannot get rid of the setuid/setgid through binary permissions. The sticky bit works fine. Changing from 1777 to 0777 adds and removes "t" respectively. What am I to make of all this? This behaviour makes no sense to make especially given that we can change the permissions to 6777 (setuid + setgid).

drwxr-xr-x 2 munin munin 4096 Oct 29 01:31 spool

What is this warning about? And is this something that I should worry about? Thanks in advance for enlightening me!

I can't believe I wrote a looong message and it logged me out when I tried to submit it.

So anyway, in short lines:

- I have a network of sites where all sites share same "images" folder
- I have created /home/_images/entities and symlinked it from all websites
- It works great with Apache, when I open /images/ on any of the sites I get list of images and can view them

The problem is suPHP which changes process ID of the PHP script to the file owner ID, so when I load site1.com, all scripts are executed as user1 (and files/folders created with those scripts belong to user1:user1). When I load site2.com, all scripts are executed as user2 (and files/folders created with those scripts belong to user2:user2). All these users do NOT belong to the same group, and I wouldn't like to change that as it is cPanel/WHM server so I'm afraid I'll screw something up if I change (primary?) group of all users.

Therefore I need to set it up in such way that all newly created folders and files under /home/_images/entities (owned by root) have read/write permissions for everyone.

Here's the command I used:

Code:

setfacl -Rdm o::rwx /home/_images/entities

To check it:
Code:

root@server1 [~]# getfacl /home/_images/entities/
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: home/_images/entities/
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::rwx
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:other::rwx

This looks fine, however when I try upload an image via site1.com it looks like this:

Code:

root@server1 [/home/_images/entities]# ls -l
total 24
drwxrwxrwx+ 5 root    root    4096 Jan 14 06:25 ./
drwxrwxrwx  5 root    root    4096 Jan 12 13:08 ../
drwxrwxr-x+ 3 user1   user1   4096 Jan 14 06:25 1/

And in folder "1" is the image (and thumbs folder):

Code:

root@server1 [/home/_images/entities/1]# ls -l
total 236
drwxrwxr-x+ 3 user1   user1     4096 Jan 14 06:25 ./
drwxrwxrwx+ 5 root    root      4096 Jan 14 06:25 ../
-rw-rw-rw-  1 user1   user1   225569 Jan 14 06:25 689048f221ab7c556f4d482a9d92b2d6.jpg
drwxrwxr-x+ 2 user1   user1   4096 Jan 14 06:25 thumbs/

My questions:

1) Why newly created folders do not have "write" permissions for everyone else [not user and/or group]? If I upload first image from site1.com, then I can't upload other images from any other site, while all sites can display them.

2) What is the + at the end of permissions list? (drwxrwxr-x+)

3) Why newly created files have only "rw" permissions for user, group AND everyone else, and not execute permissions? I don't actually need execute flag set here, but from my command you can see I've set "o::rwx" so it should be there (or not?)

Actually the real problem is #1 - other users can't write to this folder so users can't upload images from other sites nor other sites can create (missing) thumbnails.

Hi,
I just upgraded my server from Debian 7 to Debian 8. Everything seemed to go fine. However, Apache doesn't seem to be able to see the web files. If I go to my server's IP, I get an empty directory listing, as if the document root was pointed to an empty directory. However, my apache.conf points to /var/www, and there are indeed files the
Code:

root@maples-server:~# ls -la /var/www/

Here's my apache.conf (with the comments stripped; there were no "end of line" comments):

I also checked sites-enabled/000-default, and everything seems to be fine the
Code:

	# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
	# alert, emerg.
	LogLevel warn

	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Additionally, the connections are no longer showing up in /var/log/apache2/access.log. The last access time in that file is from before the update. I don't know enough about systemd to know if it is responsible for redirecting the logs to somewhere else...

At this point, I have no idea why it's not working. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!

EDIT: After looking around some more, it seems that the output of "apachectl -S" is helpful. So here it is:
Code:

root@maples-server:~# apachectl -S

It appears that it's looking in a subdirectory html, which was not the case previously (before the upgrade). I've currently got a (ugly but useable) work-around using a symlink:
Code:

root@maples-server:~# cd /var/www/
root@maples-server:/var/www# rm -r html/
root@maples-server:/var/www# ln -s /var/www/
root@maples-server:/var/www# mv www html
root@maples-server:/var/www# ls -l html
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 28 22:36 html -> /var/www/

While this does work, I'd like to find the proper way of doing it. Any ideas?

Hello,

I cannot understand why the symlink I have put in /etc/cront.daily won't work. It is very possible I am wrong, but my understanding is that cront.{daily,weekly,monthly} works fine with symlinks.

Basically it is double symlink-ed. ls -la on /etc/cron.daily looks like this:

Code:

... 
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root    49 Nov 27 18:26 rsync_mysql_backups.sh -> /home/myuser/scripts/bash/rsync_mysql_backups.sh
...

Now, ls -la on /home/myuser/scripts looks like this:

Code:

...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 myuser myuser    26 Sep 20  2013 scripts -> /media/md1_storage/scripts
...

I couldn't see anything suspicious in syslog, so I installed postfix in the hope that I will get some sort of information there. Nothing... I also redirected the output of the script to a file in /home/myuser/log.txt but nothing there. The file was not even created.

I am not doing anything mad in the script, I am just synchronising a local directory with a remote one like this:

Code:

/usr/bin/rsync -avzx -e 'ssh -i "/home/myuser/.ssh/myremotehost/id_rsa"' /media/md1_storage/backups/stuff/ myuser@myremotehost:/srv/backups/stuff/ >> /home/myuser/log.txt 2>&1;

As other people suggested in similar threads, I have verified that
Code:

test -x /usr/sbin/anacron

is false, which will result in the execution of the second part of the entry in /etc/crontab:

Code:

25 6    * * *   root    test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )

Any input will be much appreciated. I know I am doing something wrong, but I just cannot see it right now... How can I gather more debugging which will help me understand what's going wrong?

Thanks!
