*** DocScrutinizer51 has quit IRC00:02
*** Docscrutemp has joined #maemo-devel00:02
joorinandrius, as far as i know, syslogd is not installed out of the box. logging is ... hard to find.00:02
*** Docscrutemp is now known as DocScrutinizer5100:02
andriuswhat file permissions should be on /var folder?00:03
joorindrwxr-xr-x   14 root     root          936 Dec 17 12:39 var00:04
andriusls -alR /var please?00:04
joorinandrius, ill get kicked for flooding.00:04
joorin-R is for teh lose.00:04
andriuscould you send it to me using private chat please00:05
lcukandrius, why00:05
*** DocScrutinizer51 has quit IRC00:05
andriusi moved var to a different partion as root, and i think that some files inside got changed to owner root00:05
andriusand that could be the reason for my calendar and notes not working properly00:06
joorinandrius, others have tried moving /var, its not a good idea. reflash was suggested...00:06
*** Joonas has joined #maemo-devel00:06
andriusi think the problem is file permissions00:06
andriusso i just need ls -laR /var00:06
joorinandrius, find where your notes are stored and ill provide permissions for that path.00:07
andriusif anyone could send me that i would apreciate00:07
andriusi'm not sure00:07
joorinandrius, grep -R?00:07
andriusyea but for what00:07
andriusnotes?00:08
andriusor calendar00:08
andriusor what00:08
joorinandrius, for something thats saved IN a note?00:09
andriusok so if you run ls -laR on /var on your device, can you tell if all files are owned by root or is there any files that are owned by  a diffrent user?00:09
lcukcontents of /var/tmp (which has tracker-user and calendar journal etc are user users00:10
andriuscould i get the list of these files?00:10
lcuk/var/run/pulse contents are owned by pulse:pulse00:10
lcukall in those folders00:11
lcukchown /var/tmp/*00:11
lcuk(reading from device so cant c&p00:12
joorinthis is impressive:00:13
joorin        <entry name="modified" mtime="1271747607" type="string">00:13
joorin                <stringvalue>1271747607</stringvalue>00:13
joorin        </entry>00:13
andriuslcuk, i think "ls -laR|grep -v root" should give the list00:13
andriuslcuk, i think "ls -laR /var|grep -v root" should give the list00:13
lcukandrius, i can see the list now but im not transcribing it00:14
lcuktrying to use brevity00:14
andriusi believe /var/run file permissions are not important as it gets created everytime i restart the device00:15
andriussame with /var/tmp00:15
lcukandrius, where did you move the folder to00:16
andriusto /home00:16
andriusand create a symlink00:16
andriusbut i moved as root user00:16
andriusand now all files became owned by root00:16
lcukisnt var potentially used before /home is mounted00:17
lcuk/var00:17
andriusdon't know00:17
andriusthe partition table on the device is really not good00:18
lcukbut it boots for now00:18
andriusi moved it back and restart and it boots00:18
lcukyeah and you are extending it further00:18
lcukdid it fail to boot after oyu initially moved it?00:18
lcukor did you just not reboot00:18
lcukand chickened out00:18
andriusi didn't reboot00:19
andriusnow i just moved /var/cache/apt00:19
andriusand symlinked it00:19
andriusapt-get can install packages and i'm happy00:19
lcukok so whats actually wrong with your cal and notes00:19
andriusbut not sure what's broken because of permissions00:19
andriusi can't edit or delete or add any new stuff00:20
andriusnot sure what else could be broken because of that00:20
joorinandrius, some kind of last resort is to use strace to try to figure it out.00:20
andriusok00:21
andriuscan i start calendar from command line00:21
lcukif you open notes what happens?00:21
andriusi can open it00:21
andriusbut just can't edit00:21
andriusif i try edit it says error occured00:21
andriusand that's it00:21
lcukat the point of hitting key?00:22
andriusyes00:23
andriusit comes up a yellow line on top of the screen and inside says error occurred00:23
lcukcan you edit text in other apps?00:23
andriusi tested few other things on the phone and so far everything else seem to work fine00:24
lcukandrius, can you go onto the clock and try to create a new alarm00:25
lcukim wondering if its gtk thats ballsed00:25
andriusok let try taht00:25
andriusthat works fine00:26

jooringconf sure isnt impossible, and better than dbus, but still a pain to have to get there via an API that's so flexible.22:36
joorinto actually do proper errorhandling, meh.22:37
