Removing data

[HeinrichH]

Back home again and tried to grow the data file.
When I typed the commands to disable the auto start-up of meteohub I get the messages listed on the attachment. I used the sugested commands to stop the services like:
/etc/init.d/loggerd stop (those commands stopped the services)
The next problem is the key-board layout in VMware, it seems a Swiss layout is defined beccause the y and the z are exchanged and I did not find a possibility to enter the"|" and the "#" character.
I followed the steps to point 11, except point 4 and 6 because of the "|" character
Then I stocked in step 12 because I could not enter the "#"character and I don't know how to exit the VI editor

If the file is corrupted or so, no problem, I have a back-up and it is my test system.

Any idea for further help?

Thanks in advance, Henk

Hi Henk,

It seems that you've missed the 1st part of the command "mv", the entire line should read:

mv /etc/rc2.d/S20loggerd /etc/rc2.d/s20loggerd
mv /etc/rc2.d/S20meteonetd /etc/rc2.d/s20meteonetd
mv /etc/rc2.d/S20thttpd /etc/rc2.d/s20thttpd
mv /etc/rc2.d/S89cron /etc/rc2.d/s89cron
mv /etc/rc2.d/S10sysklogd /etc/rc2.d/s10sysklogd
mv /etc/rc2.d/S23ntp /etc/rc2.d/s23ntp
mv /etc/rc2.d/S20samba /etc/rc2.d/s20samba

On the keyboard issues; yes I did have that problem as well with the console. The best thing to do is use a utility like putty to login to meteohub, this allows you to use you own keyboard mapping (by default) and you can use cut 'n paste for the commands (and output if you like to capture it).

Hi Ysbrand,

Thanks for all the help! I'm happy, its done! My data file is 8952MB on my test system and the logged data is still available.
Next I have to do my 2 working systems.

Thanks, Henk
