| 08:32.07 | ChoHag | Oh yes, chef. Make your log files world writable. |
| 08:32.45 | bilarh | brilliant :) |
| 08:33.31 | wethrin | ha |
| 08:39.55 | ChoHag | I once asked in #chef how to make logging use syslog. I was told to insert a 4/5 line block of code in the config file. |
| 08:41.00 | ChoHag | And a vital component failed on Sunday morning with nothing complaining. In fact according to the UI, the nodes have been running perfectly. |
| 08:41.42 | ChoHag | I don't think they take logging very seriously. They were full of fail but no part of the system bothered to tell me. |

| 11:19.45 | j0nr | I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I am working on a php script and when I ask to download a PDF file, I get an error "File does not begin with '%PDF-'" anyone know why that is? |
| 11:20.23 | antiphase | Moar information required |
| 11:20.25 | j0nr | theres nothing wrong with the PDF if I just view it directly |
| 11:21.28 | j0nr | ok. I created a pdf using pdflatex, then use a php script to 'get' it and allow the user to download it. some work and other dont. I dont understand why some do and some dont. the one's that don't display that error |
| 11:21.47 | wethrin | maybe the file doesn't start with %PDF- |
| 11:21.54 | wethrin | % is, IIRC, a Postscript comment |
| 11:22.37 | j0nr | I'm not sure where the %PDF- is meant to go... I basically create a .tex file and just use the command pdflatex on it. |
| 11:23.41 | antiphase | Do you mean you're serving the content using a PHP script? |
| 11:24.06 | j0nr | yes |
| 11:24.17 | antiphase | So the user GETs then |
| 11:24.21 | antiphase | not the dscript |
| 11:24.37 | antiphase | What does `curl -I` say about it? |
| 11:24.50 | j0nr | I guess. The user presses a button which calls up the script which basically uses readfile() |
| 11:25.04 | antiphase | Welll you wrote it :P |
| 11:25.29 | j0nr | I'm not sure what to do with curl -I |
| 11:26.02 | antiphase | It performs a HEAD operation, so you need to give it the URL of your script |
| 11:26.11 | j0nr | oh ok |
| 11:26.47 | antiphase | It's to satisfy my curiosity about the Content-Type that's being given |
| 11:27.44 | j0nr | antiphase: http://pastebin.com/HRbnQ6r6 |
| 11:28.14 | j0nr | but like I said, some entries work, some do not |
| 11:28.40 | antiphase | You'd have to save them and look at them then |
| 11:28.51 | j0nr | oh bugger hang on... |
| 11:29.05 | antiphase | They're probably Apache error pages that don't start with %PDF- |
| 11:30.47 | j0nr | helps if there is actually an PDF there |
| 11:31.35 | antiphase | People can probably use your script to download your password file as well, which is conventional with PHP scripts |
