06:08 🔗 tungol I just noticed that http://warriorhq.archiveteam.org/projects.json gives a repository for URLTeam as https://github.com/soult/tinyback.git when really it's https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/tinyback.git
06:08 🔗 tungol the soult one is a 404
06:09 🔗 tungol I don't know what's up with that, but it choked up a script I had running, and I wanted to pass the information along to those who could do something about it
08:43 🔗 ersi tungol: Thanks man, will update that
22:20 🔗 contingen Is this the right place to be asking for "tech support" with the warrior?
22:22 🔗 quercus i'm having real trouble getting to my warrior's config page
22:22 🔗 quercus localhost:8001 doesn't give me anything
22:23 🔗 Baljem localhost? not sure that's right if you're running the Warrior VM image - you'll need to substitute the VM's IP address - I think it should show it on the console once it's booted
22:24 🔗 quercus ah
22:24 🔗 quercus hang on then
22:24 🔗 Baljem (there are other people here who are vastly more qualified to give advice than I am, to be honest, but I figured I might as well chip in rather than leave you hanging!)
22:25 🔗 quercus cool, thanks. do i use a nat or bridged adapter in virtualbox?
22:26 🔗 quercus if you know, that is
22:26 🔗 quercus i'm just glad o' the help
22:27 🔗 Baljem depends on your setup. NAT should always work, so go for that if you're not sure
22:27 🔗 quercus hmmm. i'm set to that. any easy way for me to find the ip of the warrior's vm?
22:30 🔗 Baljem I'd have expected it to show it at boot - I think mine says 'connect to http://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:8001/ to manage your Warrior' or something - if not, you could try pressing (I think) Ctrl-Alt-F2 to switch to another console where you should be able to login as root with password archiveteam (from memory!)
22:30 🔗 Baljem then type ifconfig and it should hopefully list the IP address there.
22:30 🔗 Baljem however - you could try switching to bridged networking and rebooting, that might give you better luck if you're on a typical domestic network
22:32 🔗 Baljem (not sure why it wouldn't work with NAT, to be honest, but I use VMware rather than VirtualBox so...)
22:32 🔗 quercus yeah. when my warrior boots, it says to go to localhost to manage it. but presumably that localhost to the warrior, not the host system running it
22:33 🔗 Baljem yep, exactly right - hmm
22:34 🔗 Baljem one moment, let me have a ferret to make sure I'm not talking complete rubbish
22:36 🔗 Baljem hmm, I'm sorry - the instructions at http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=ArchiveTeam_Warrior use the localhost address too - so this might be a VirtualBox thing that I'm not familiar with. but if it's not working for you...
22:37 🔗 Baljem did you try the networking option both ways? bridged is probably worth a shot if you're on a typical network, since it should then grab an IP from DHCP I believe
22:38 🔗 quercus yeah. looking at the talk on the wiki page (last item), it seems to be a thing
22:38 🔗 quercus digging into the terminal i go then :P
22:40 🔗 Baljem heh, I was just reading exactly that. good luck!
22:41 🔗 Baljem could've sworn mine gave the IP, but then I did mess around in the config late one night to give it a static address (no DHCP on the network where mine runs - alas I can't get to it from home, either, or I'd have a dig around and see what's what)
22:41 🔗 quercus might have to bolt it down to a special ip or get appallingly creative with port mapping (yeesh)
22:44 🔗 Baljem yes, probably wouldn't hurt - at least you'd know where it is when you want to give it a poke!
22:45 🔗 quercus would be nice to be able to fiddle with it from work over my .com
22:58 🔗 quercus hmm. so, it appears that if it's in NAT mode, it can't reach github to update :S
23:00 🔗 Baljem hmm - that's odd - kinda defeats the purpose of having a NAT mode in VirtualBox if it won't let it connect out! perhaps a VirtualBox config issue?
23:01 🔗 quercus wouldn't be surprised. i smell a clean install of the home server at some point. ugh.
23:01 🔗 Baljem (in VMware the NAT mode involves a little private DHCP server and a NAT service, I'd presume VirtualBox would have set something similar up if it offers a NAT option in the config!)
23:05 🔗 quercus i'm not trusting virtualbox as far as i can throw it at the moment.
23:06 🔗 quercus i'm eyeing up a core 2 duo beige box doing nothing and wondering if there was just an ISO i can burn to install on the bare metal rather than the intermediary vm-iness
23:08 🔗 Baljem I think the VM is set up to expect certain hard drive configurations - it automatically partitions the secondary drive image, as I understand it - but you should be able to run the scripts under Debian (at least), if that floats your boat
23:09 🔗 Baljem got an OS on the spare box at the moment?
23:09 🔗 quercus hmm. maybe a wet weekend project
23:09 🔗 Baljem heh. what's the forecast for this weekend like? I think I saw rain...
23:10 🔗 quercus xp. totally torchable
23:10 🔗 Baljem try installing VMware Player - that should accept the OVA/OVF file, I believe
23:11 🔗 quercus hmm. might be worth a punt
23:11 🔗 Baljem I wouldn't suggest it on a machine that wasn't spare, but at least it would eliminate any VirtualBox weirdness
23:11 🔗 quercus true
23:11 🔗 quercus might have to shoot out and buy a vga cable for the tv
23:22 🔗 Baljem right, afraid I need to hit the hay - good luck with getting it sorted, quercus - perhaps somebody with more VirtualBox knowledge will pipe up :S
23:22 🔗 Baljem sorry I couldn't be more useful!
23:23 🔗 quercus hey, all help gratefully received
