@Tracy Here's how to send a message to you
-
@Tracy I can't see your private chats.
-
You should be able to click on the speech bubble on the right side of the screen (if on desktop, don't know where on mobile) to see it.
As I mentioned in the chat, I'm off to bed again so need to figure out a time that we can get into chat and set it up as it does not need to be done in this area. I am in the US (Texas Central time) and will probably be back up around 3PM-4PM today. -
Do you have a discord, we discord private message
-
Yeah... astro_what_04309
I'll be on for about 5 minutes then off to bed. -
@Tracy Do you have a discord, we discord private message, here it shows that I don't have permission to view your messages.

They are getting help, but if they want to go there that will work also. I'm about to head off to bed after dealing with it for a few hours already and getting slow responses.
-
@Tracy yes, I too have seen similar over on Sudonix. I've put myself forward but yet to have any response.

Just so you know if you do start helping, the upgrade to 24.04LTS was ran and now the system is non-responsive for remote access. Trying to either get the user to provide the web console access to their VPS or have them resolve that issue themselves and no luck so far.
-
@Tracy I'm in contact the site owner and have login details as root.

He gave those to me also. But when trying to connect to the IP he provided via SSH it did not connect (times out). It did before processing the 24.04LTS upgrade.
Doing a ping of the site results:
PING <IP removed for security> (<IP REMOVED>): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
Request timeout for icmp_seq 2
Request timeout for icmp_seq 3
Request timeout for icmp_seq 4
Request timeout for icmp_seq 5So for some reason from my location it does not connect to it.
With 22.04LTS it was giving a MongoDB dependency warning, and I'm not that familiar with MongDB (usually use mySQL or postgreSQL).
Best of luck! -
@Tracy could well be behind a firewall or iptables.

yeah, and without the panel (web) access (which I never could get) there is nothing I could do.
-
@Tracy probably the same with me then as I can't ping it either. I know the user is in Asia.
-
Yeah, just getting access to the web console of the VPS controls and using their console to try to connect would help resolve the issues. It's not like I'm new to Linux. Been running it since Slackware came out on 3.5" disks.
-
@Tracy you sound as old as me
-
@phenomlab I'm scaring 62 this year.
I cut my teeth on this type of stuff back when QuickBBS/RemoteAccess/Maximus/WWIV were the "in thing" for participation. First round was using MS-DOS 3.1 and DESQview to run my QuickBBS site then progressed to OS2 and Maximus/2 with Binkley on the the front end for FidoNet. Ran a 3 line BBS and had a 4th line devoted strictly for mail delivery since I was a NEC and also a HUB in the DFW area. -
@Tracy wow. That's impressive. I'm from the VAX/VMS days with a strong background in Unix. I fondly recall the DEC days alongside AIX.
