Headless server is now disconnected (SOLVED)

I have a tower set up as a media server. It was working fine until the power cord got disconnected while moving stuff around...This coupled with the fact that netctl refuses to connect simple wireless-wpa connections for me (lately) has resulted in me being cut off from the server. If I had a monitor I could manually set up the wireless network but I don't have a monitor. I was hoping to somehow use my netbook with a 15-pin male-to-male monitor cord as an external monitor so I could see what I was typing into it with the keyboard. I assumed this was possible but after digging around I could not find any such solution. So what should I do, go buy a monitor?

I carefully typed in commands to create the
/etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-slot-names.rules
file. I then restarted the system and tried
sudo ip link set wlan0 up
and my USB wifi card light came on, indicating the wireless was working, and that the interface was now, for certain, named wlan0. Not sure where to go from here though. I tried entering
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i <interface> -c <(wpa_passphrase <essid> <passphrase>)
very carefully, then
sudo dhcpcd wlan0
but nothing seems to happen. I tried ssh, pinging, and looking for it to show up under network shares in my file manager. However I found nothing, so there seems to be something wrong with either my wpa_supplicant commands or the dhcpcd command?

  • [SOLVED]bittorrent for a headless server

    Hi,
    I want to centralise my torrents onto my home server. It's running arch and I use ssh to administer it. I was wondering if anyone could recommend bittorrent clients for this situation. I doubt I could ssh in and access an ncurses gui or something, but maybe someone here has a better solution. I though of backgrounding a command line client but this would lead to a separate instance for each torrent which makes them hard to manage, so do I have no choice but to use a web based client?

    Actually, if it is a strong enough hardware, you can run any GUI application that you'd like with vnc (like I do Ktorrent and aMule on my headless Arch server).
    Here's how you do it:
    1. Install basic xorg, a basic window manager and tight vnc on the headless server:
    pacman -S xorg openbox tightvnc
    2. Run the server once so it will create ~/.vnc and setup passwords
    vncserver
    3. Setup the vnc startup script (so you wont need to ssh and manually activate it after the headless reboots).
    Call it vnc and put it in /etc/rc.d/
    Dont forget to set it up to run at startup in rc.conf
    replace daf666 with your username!
    #!/bin/bash
    # general config
    . /etc/rc.conf
    . /etc/rc.d/functions
    case "$1" in
      start)
        stat_busy "Starting vncserver"
          su daf666 -c "/usr/bin/vncserver"
        if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
        else
          add_daemon vnc
          stat_done
        fi
      stop)
        stat_busy "Stopping vncserver"
        killall Xvnc
        if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
        else
          rm_daemon vnc
          stat_done
        fi
      restart)
        $0 stop
        sleep 3
        $0 start
        echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" 
    esac
    4. To setup openbox to run at startup insert 'openbox' in your ~/.vnc/xstartup
    5. Reboot the headless
    6. Install tightvnc on your desktop machine and connect to the headless: vncviewer 6.6.6.6:1 (replace with ur IP and screen num)
    7. Install ktorrent or what ever.. then it will keep running after you disconnect

  • Run iTunes on a headless server

    I am wanting to run iTunes as a Music server on a headless server without an audio card. I have installed it copied over my entire library and turned on Homesharing. It works awesome with my Apple TV and any other iTunes computer but there is one problem. Since this is a Homeserver box (HP EX495) there isn't an audio card so every time I launch iTunes it first says there isn't a audio device. I push OK and everything works. I want to enable autologin and put iTunes in the start menu so I never have to remote into the box to push ok. Is there a command line switch with iTunes to not check on Audio/Video hardware?

    I finally found help for setting up itunes on startup with no sound card. This worked for my HP Smartmedia server so it may work for you as well.
    Copied from another forum (Mediasmartserver)
    Step 1: Remove iTunes
    Remove any install of iTunes form the server by logging in using RDC (Remember: Administrator, servername /console or /admin), After iTunes uninstall, go to Add/Remove Programs from Control Panel and also uninstall the following:
    "Apple Application Support", "Bonjour", " Apple Software Update" and "QuickTime" (don't worry if some are not there to uninstall)
    Now restart the server.
    Step 2: iTunes Service Errors
    Dial back into the server using RDC, Download the latest version of iTunes installer (32bit) from Apple, Run the installer, when the installer gets to "running services" it will hang for a bit then a error message will pop up regarding "ipodservice failed to start", Click IGNORE and the iTunes install will complete.
    After install has completed you may get several windows error messages regarding "iPodservice 32bit" and, or "iTunesHelper" simply keep clicking "Don't Send" until the messages stop appearing.
    Now disable iTunesHelper and the iPodService. Do this by:
    iPodService:
    Start > Run > type msconfig > Services Tab > Uncheck iPodService.
    iTunesHelper:
    Startup Tab > Uncheck iTunesHelper (you should also uncheck "Logon Warning" also to stop the annoying popup warning every time you login using RDC)
    Apply Changes, Click Restart LATER.
    Step 3: Add iTunes to the DEP list
    Now you need to add iTunes components to the DEP exempt list. Do this by:
    While in your server desktop using RDC,
    Right click "My Computer" > Properties > Advanced Tab > Under Performance section click Settings > Data Execution Prevention tab >Ensure "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select" is selected > Click ADD > Add "iTunes.exe", "iTunesHelper.exe", "iPodService.exe", "iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe"
    you will find iTunes.exe, iTunesHelper.exe and iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe at C:/Program Files/iTunes/ (default location)
    you will find iPodService.exe at C:/Program Files/iPod/bin/ (default location)
    Restart the Server.
    You may think why not just select "Turn on DEP for essential windows programs and services only" I thought the same but I can ensure you, you will run into issues if you do this!
    Step 4: Audio Configuration Error
    Login in using RDC, you should hopefully not see any iTunes/iPod related error messages when logging into Windows. If you do check your DEP list to ensure all of the above are on there, OR you could try disabling Windows Error Reporting:
    Right click "My Computer" > Properties > Advanced Tab > Error Reporting > Disable Error Reporting.
    Launch iTunes, You will notice you get a " iTunes had detected a Audio Configuration Error" Click OK, iTunes will launch. Close iTunes
    this happens because the server has no Audio Hardware, You need to install a "virtual audio cable" Download the following free program:
    http://www.softpile.com/Multimedia/Audio/Review13135index.html(this is the virtual audio cable)
    Now disconnect from the Server by closing RDC connection
    Now for this to work you must change a setting in the RDC program: Sound output MUST be selected to: "from the windows based computer only" (RDC for Mac) or "leave at remote computer" (Windows RDC) you need to do this for the Virtual Audio Cable to install correctly on the server. Log back in using RDC and run the Virtual Audio Cable setup file. Now start iTunes, you should not see any Audio configuration error messages.
    If you do,
    close iTunes, go to: Start > Control Panel > Quick Time > Audio Tab > Select "Direct Sound" > Apply settings and close > Try iTunes again.
    If you still have a issue make sure you changed the sound option in RDC correctly or try a restart of the server.
    This should now mean iTunes can start without any user input.
    You should also add your iOS remote device now if you are going to be using one.
    Step 5: iTunes auto launch on startup
    Now that iTunes is free of errors, we need to make it auto start up when your server starts without needing to login into your server via RDC every time to start iTunes.
    Simply add iTunes to the Start up folder, by either dragging the desktop shortcut to the start menu > all programs > and drop it into the startup folder OR place the iTunes shortcut into C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\
    Now to make the Administrator console login automatically on Windows start up, To do this you need to edit the registry of windows, Don't be afraid its simple and easy!
    Start > Run > type regedit.exe > HKEYLOCALMACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows NT >CurrentVersion > Winlogon
    Double-click the DefaultUserName entry, type Administrator, and then click OK.
    Double-click the DefaultPassword entry, type your password, and then click OK.
    NOTE: If the DefaultPassword value does not exist, it must be added. To add the value, follow these steps:
    On the Edit menu, click New, and then point to String Value.
    Type DefaultPassword, and then press ENTER.
    Double-click DefaultPassword.
    In the Edit String dialog, type your password and then click OK.
    Now Double-click AutoAdminLogon entry
    In the Edit String dialog box, type 1 and then click OK. (delete the zero (0) if there is one)
    Quit Registry Editor.
    As a nice touch (you don't have to do this)but if your like me, when logging in using RDC you see iTunes open, really you want it to startup minimized to the tray right? Yes! Do so by downloading and installing iTunes Control onto your server, its a free program.
    You can get iTunes Control form here:
    http://itunescontrol.com/download.php
    Once installed, open iTunesControl > Startup & Shutdown > Select Minimize iTunes on Startup > Apply setting and close.
    Also in iTunes go to: Edit > Preferences >Advanced > Select "Show iTunes icon in system tray" and also select "Minimize iTunes window to system tray"
    Your Done! if you restart the server it should automatically launch iTunes without ANY user input, easy way to check is by using a iOS device remote app to see if it connects after a server restart. or by using your apple tv to confirm iTunes is running. If you are streaming to a AirPort Express make sure it is selected as the speaker output from iTunes or via Remote App.

  • I can no longer log into my ichat linked to my gmail.  right after opening up ichat, receive the following message:  lost connection with jabber.  the server has unexpectedly disconnected.

    i can no longer log into my ichat linked to my gmail.  right after opening up ichat, receive the following message:  lost connection with jabber.  the server has unexpectedly disconnected.  how to troubleshoot?  thanks.

    Hi,
    There can be many reasons why the Login is "up the creek".
    Any break in the network at your end whilst logged in will cause  an issue.
    A sort of discrepancy between what iChat thinks the state should be and what the server thinks.
    If they don't agree the server will refuse to accept.
    A Crash at the server end which does not log you out properly will also do it.
    Any file at any time can be come corrupted.
    Luckily with the iChat .plists they are recreated if removed with an iChat Restart.
    If it were AIM you can also get your Account Suspended  and this will not log you in.
    (It tends to happen from Chat rooms where people notify AIM about bad behaviour (as they see it) and you have to apply to get Un-suspended).
    Most of the big IM services use multiple servers.
    Sometimes these go out of Sync.
    In the case of AIM this happens when they remove Old unused Screen Names from people's Buddy List prior to making them available for re-registration.  I am not sure if this happens at Google.
    You seem to be talking about an account that has worked at Work and having new computer at home.
    As I mentioned the Priority thing you have not said that it has coincided with the new computer logging in  (this will kick the work Computer out of Google whether you are logged in  on the Web Mail page or in iChat)
    IN addition to that iChat stays partially logged in for Off Line IMs
    This is done in the background by a support app called iChatAgent
    If your Computer is ON but ichat is not started people can still send you Messages.
    Instead of saving these on the server until you login iChat will start up.
    Depending if the home Mac is effecting the Work Login it may be holding sway over your Login.
    Using your girlfriend's login may have booted her Off Line where she normally uses the name/login.
    The AIM Side can be specifically set to allow Multiple Logins and therefore NOT allow them.  If this happens you get a warning and messages to do something about it.
    You do not get these in any Jabber or Google Login as the Priority setting is supposed to take care of it.
    If the Login works at the Web Mail Login and on one computer then the .plist on the work computer is the most likely issue.
    There is a small chance that a Corrupt Buddy Pic (Home Folder/Library/Caches/com.apple.iChat/Pictures) may be the cause.
    Set this folder to icon view and also use the Finder's View Menu > Show View Options and select icon view.
    This should show all pics as their icon.
    Check that all display properly.
    At this point I would try a COMBO version update install of the last Update you did over what you have.
    This often corrects hard to trace things

  • How to resolve "The server is unavailable and could not be accessed. The server is probably disconnected from the network." error in Sharepoint serach crawl.

    Hi all,
    I have created a content source in Search service application for a particular site collection "http://spwebapp/sites".
    I performed reset crawl index of Search service application and then performed a full crawl.
    But i get errors on running crawl on this content source for most of the files. The error is "The server is unavailable and could not be accessed. The server is probably disconnected from the network." Though the site is accessible.
    But before performing reset index the crawl was working fine on this content source. Crawl is working fine for other site collections. Only one site collection is facing this problem. Please let me know if what I can do to resolve this error.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you seeing any error messages in the URL related to the Gatherer?  And in your content source, are there any site URLs that are no longer active or do you have any crawl rules set up that might be affecting access to the site collection?
    I've seen this happen for a variety of reason, SSL issues, proxy issues, permissions issues.  The Eventvwr and ULS logs should help you narrow down the real problem.
    Sometimes this is an issue because the indexer and the site are sitting on the same box, you could try doing a disable loopback check to see if that resolves the issue and if it does then go through the hassle of setting up a specific LSA :

    Can you upgrade from 1.3.0.20 small ovf to 2.1 without migrating to a new server? It sounds like you can just adjust the server settings now. I am currently running 1.3.0.20 and I have enough to do with also needing to upgrade my wlc to 7.4.121.0 and getting the MSE up to 7.4.121.0 without having to stand up a new server if I don't have to. Please share any information you have in regards to your experience with coming from a version 1.2-1.3 small ovf and going to 2.1.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    You are better off standing up a new server.  It's cleaner and safer..... you can always try to upgrade if you wish, but if things don't work out well, then you just wasted a lot of time.  Snapshot the VM and export the floor plans, just in case.  The ova is built around the DB size, so I don't know how well the DB will perform if you try to expand memory or drive space after an upgrade.

    1. Close all open apps - double-click the Home button and swipe up on all of the thumbnails for all open apps
    2. Reset the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your issues are resolved

  • Automating a flex app on a headless server

    I have a flex chart drawing application that needs to be automated. When automated it will read in data from the DB, draw the charts, and save them as .png files. This works flawlessly on my localhost version of oc4j on my Mac. However it has never worked on our Solaris oc4j deployment which is a headless server. I've set flex to run as headless in the config files but no dice. How can I get this working? Here are some of the error messages I'm getting:
    LINUX/UNIX browser attempting to launch /opt/sfw/bin/firefox http://flexdomain.yadayadyada
    08/11/06 14:41:53

    And here's a snippet from the Java which launches the flex app in the firefox browser:
    String cmd = "/opt/sfw/bin/ff.sh "+ url; // ff.sh is a script which sets DISPLAY and launches firefox with the flex url
    Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process p = rt.exec(cmd);
    I'm using 10g, by the way.
    Thanks!

    Ok, I'm convinced that this is some sort of configuration problem. I can get the browser to launch when written as a simple java program compiled at the command line:
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class Launcher {
    public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
    String url = "http://www.ebay.com";
    String[] commands = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "/opt/sfw/bin/firefox ", url, "-width", "1600", "-height", "1200", ":5"};
    ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(commands);
    Map<String, String> env = pb.environment();
    env.put( "DISPLAY", ":5" );
    Iterator it = env.entrySet().iterator();
    while (it.hasNext()) {

    What is this application all about.
    May be your ear file has some external dependancy, Can you send the logs for this.
    Since it is not deployed, the ear folder is not being created for you.

  • Headless server installation

    This link "Rescue CD/distribution that enables ssh/telnet on boot?" and my 15-year-old headless server have inspired me to make an Arch Linux install image that allows headless installation (no monitor, no keyboard) and some rescue action.
    Assumptions:
    - No monitor, no keyboard
    - Network card, and wired connection to local network
    - No other solution, but Arch install media acceptable
    Recipe:
    - Download official install image and unpack it to a directory
    - Modify syslinux to enable automatic installation process start
      (I modified 'arch/boot/syslinux/archiso.cfg')
      You have to choose i686 or x86_64 at this stage.
    - Unsquash 'arch/${ARCH}/root-image.fs.sfs' to a directory
      Mount the resulting rootfs and modify it to your liking
      You can even chroot into it.
      In order to enable sshd.service at boot, I just added a symbolic link
      in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/
    - Unmount rootfs, shquash it, and put it back where you have taken it from.
    - Generate iso image
    - Burn it.
    Done.
    There is an excellent wiki article that helped me generate my install image: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Re … nstall_ISO.
    I have made a bash script that automates all the steps above. I tested it installing i686 on my old computer. You can find it here.
    Hope it helps.
    If you have a better solution, please share.

    I thought about the wiki, but decided not to put it there. It is definitely not a complete solution. For instance, unnecessary system files should be removed. I did nothing about EFI. The purpose is just to give a working solution. Admittedly uncompleted, but working. Automated by the script, too.
    I also hoped to encourage others to show their solutions. There must be some, although I've been looking for any for quite a while and found nothing.

  • Cableone innstalled a new server and now my thunderbird email will not work. What do I do now?

    Cableone, our internet provider, has changed from a Google server to their own server and now my Thunderbird email will not work. They have directions listed to make it work, but this does not work. I have also contacted Cableone's technical support and they say because thunderbird is not their system they have no responsibility to make it work. I prefer to use Thunderbird for my email - how can I make it work? Also, I have tried the Thunderbird 'Automatic Account Configuration' help and it does not work.

    Ask your less than helpful provider for the server settings and setup the new account up manually.
    You want to know IMAP or POP and the name of the server. The port number and if it uses SSL/TLS security.
    You need the same info for the SMTP server for outbound mail.

  • What is "Bash"?  And why is it using 15-20% of my CPU?

    I went to the apple store today and they expressed concern about "Bash" in my Activity monitor taking up so much CPU (and causing my fan to run all the time).  They didn't know what it was.  Does anyone know what it is and how to get rid of it? Thank
