| 10:19 | <very_n00b> alkisg: Good day, please ignoor my prev posting from Saturday. I have since followed the ltsp-pnp page which you recomended. Under "DNS issues" it says that ltsp-server-dnsmasq.conf does not exist. What process sould have created that file, as far as I know everything is installed.

| 12:45 | gdi2k has joined IRC (gdi2k!~gdi2k@180.190.68.72) | |
| 12:57 | <very_n00b> everything seems ok except, now "PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout "
| |
| 12:59 | PXE-01: file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0 not found
| |
| 13:02 | where is the reference to this file located? please help
| |
| 13:02 | <alkisg> very_n00b: are you here? let's try a quick vnc
| |
| 13:02 | !vnc-dide
| |
| 13:02 | <ltsp`> vnc-dide: To share your screen with me, run this: sudo apt-get --yes install x11vnc; x11vnc -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr - this is a reverse connection, it doesn't need port forwarding etc.
| |
| 13:04 | <very_n00b> hi, thanks I'm just in the middle of what looks to be a final problem with the client not finding the tftp /pxelinux.0 file
| |
| 13:05 | perhaps you could tell me what configuration file that is in?
| |
| 13:05 | <alkisg> Hi, no sorry I've written the tutorial for that
| |
| 13:05 | It includes all the steps necessary for the file to be created etc
| |
| 13:06 | So the problem is that you didn't follow the wiki exactly
| |
| 13:06 | I can't tell you which part you didn't follow without looking at your system
| |
| 13:09 | <very_n00b> I think I have it, this file /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf
| |
| 13:09 | I have followed all the steps
| |
| 13:09 | <alkisg> Nah, this is completely wrong.
| |
| 13:09 | Ping me if you want vnc; otherwise just ask in the channel, maybe someone else can help you the way you want

| 13:14 | <very_n00b> Thank you - really do appreciate your help so far. If no success, will set up VNC for you.
| |
| 13:14 | <alkisg> You don't need to "set up vnc", it's the one command I wrote above.
| |
| 13:15 | It takes 10 secs to run the command, and 3 mins to solve the issue; but if you prefer to spend 10 days just searching, sure, go ahead
| |
| 13:18 | <very_n00b> alkisg: I have run the command
| |
| 13:18 | <alkisg> For vnc? and, what was the output?
| |
| 13:18 | (I didn't receive any connection, are you running X?)
| |
| 13:19 | <very_n00b> alkisg: fopen failure
| |
| 13:20 | <alkisg> Use the pastebin
| |
| 13:20 | !paste
| |
| 13:20 | <ltsp`> paste: the LTSP pastebin is at http://ltsp.pastebin.com. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebin, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. Don't forget to paste the URL of the text here.
| |
| 13:21 | <very_n00b> working on two computers here ... one moment please
| |
| 13:22 | very_n00b_2 has joined IRC (very_n00b_2!29729dce@gateway/web/freenode/ip.41.114.157.206) | |
| 13:27 | <very_n00b_2> alkisg: ok pasted, called x11vnc (first-timer so it's done right)
| |
| 13:27 | <alkisg> You need to paste the URL here
| |
| 13:30 | <very_n00b_2> https://pastebin.com/yaxB7KN1
| |
| 13:30 | <alkisg> This isn't the output
| |
| 13:30 | Also, it's srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr
| |
| 13:30 | There's no "/" there
| |
| 13:31 | fopen failure: srv1-dide/ioa.sch.gr => you misttyped a /
| |
| 13:33 | <very_n00b> ok done
| |
| 13:39 | <alkisg> very_noob, ok, boot a client
| |
| 13:39 | <very_n00b_2> ok
| |
| 13:39 | <alkisg> The problem was that you didn't follow the wiki page. You followed 10 tutorials and THEN the wiki page
| |
| 13:39 | So you had 2 tftpd servers, two dhcp servers etc
| |
| 13:40 | <very_n00b> yes you are correct in your assesment re: 10 tutorials
| |
| 13:41 | <alkisg> Does the client boot? I see it got the kernel, but I didn't see it complete boot yet
| |
| 13:41 | <very_n00b> flashing on the client screen " ** , 6 printk messages dropped **..."
| |
| 13:41 | <alkisg> How much RAM does the client have?
| |
| 13:41 | <very_n00b> 2GB
| |
| 13:42 | <alkisg> Can I install virtualbox on your server and see?
| |
| 13:42 | (for a test client)
| |
| 13:43 | <very_n00b> yes
| |
| 13:43 | <alkisg> Linux mint is broken in several ways, one of them being that it doesn't install recommends by default
| |
| 13:43 | So you might be missing some package
| |
| 13:44 | Better avoid completely linux mint, and use ubuntu mate, which is a real distro
| |
| 13:47 | very_n00b, ok, the VM boots fine
| |
| 13:47 | <very_n00b> wow
| |
| 13:47 | <alkisg> So if you see a problem with the client, it's specific to that client
| |
| 13:47 | <very_n00b> what do you think we need to change on the client? its an intel nuc
| |
| 13:48 | <alkisg> First try with any other client to verify it's a problem with that specific client
| |
| 13:48 | <very_n00b> ok
| |
| 13:48 | <alkisg> Because you e.g. might have some firewall blocking some ports, and the VM isn't blocked for some reason etc
| |
| 13:49 | gdi2k has left IRC (gdi2k!~gdi2k@180.190.68.72, Ping timeout: 260 seconds) | |
| 13:49 | <alkisg> If some other client boots, then I would suggest trying newer kernel/xorg
| |
| 13:50 | Or you might be missing some default xorg packages; mint is horribly broken
| |
| 13:51 | <very_n00b> ok, will have to look for another computer to use as a client, Thank you very much for your help!
