Yep I tried some random guide I found but not sure if that worked at all (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)

You got a mounted filesystem so it must have worked somewhat (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I have 3 Clients running on this Server

So do not even bother with my solution with soft links. Just copy (not move) the /h/h1 directory under the new disk and try starting H@H. If H@H starts alright you delete the directory in the old location.

H@H shall have everything it needs under the directory it is in, given that you start it under the right IP it shall boot alright.

Ho do I move folders. Just using my FTP Program would be boring so I need to do it with Linux magic (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

[linux.die.net] mv source destination

Oh, I haven't read this thread for a while.

That image doesn't show anything other than ordinary info from H@H client.

Yup, as spoken it just hanged there.

I believe that StonyCat had an issue with a OpenVZ VPS here: https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=108730
and that that log comes from there.
I also believe that the problem went away (i.e. he got a better VPS) as StonyCat did try to shout for help anymore.

Ya, after trying out a few different VPS companies I think I can conclude that is an OpenVZ problem (which I have absolutely no knowledge on):

1. I never encounter the same problem on any non-OpenVZ VPSes.
2. I have tried at least 4 different companies (as I can remember) on VPS with 256MB RAM, 2 have no problems at all but 2 have problems (hanging, or process terminated randomly). For those 2 having problems, they were fixed after I upgrade them to 512MB RAM. (I didn't try any 128MB OpenVZ VPS though)

[linux.die.net] mv source destination

I better just copy it I think. Dont wanna lose all my cache just in caste it does not work (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

Eh, there's literary no chance of that happening unless you do the mv part within the H@H folder or use a high ascii number/ dot or something like that, since mv is recursive.

True. Yet he just added the destination disk and followed some (possibly dodgy) tutorial to create and mount a filesystem there. mv would not fail even if the destination would be a complete mess (it would not do anything in such case), but it would leave our favourite linux newbie rather confused.

Ichy, use "cp" (which stands for copy, as "mv" stands for move). i.e.

cp -r source destination

then if H@H boots in the destination (new disk) you remove the original files with "rm" (for remove)

rm -r source

btw Ichy, by now you could try to get the hang of the basic UNIX commands like: cd, mv, cp, mkdir, touch, rmdir, chmod, chown, ls, echo, grep and cat. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I already know how to cd mkdir and alrady know what a cat is but have no clue why there is one in my Server.

Also that Cheatcode did nothing.
how do I have to type in my Source and destination?

CODE

cp -r /h/h3 /mnt/2ndHDD

Did nothing.
Also tried

CODE

cp -r h3 2ndHDD
cp -r /h3 /2ndHDD

CODE

cp -r /h/h3 /mnt/2ndHDD

Did nothing.

Are you sure it did nothing? Could you check if you have a directory called /mnt/2ndHDD/h3 now? Hopefully it will be there.
Normally, when the command do not print an error message it just did what it was supposed to do. Or maybe it actually printed some error (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ?

And don't worry about the cat, he's very strong in the UNIX OSes. At some point in the past there was also a "dog" command that did the same what cat does, but cat proved to be better and dog was removed.

If you got a cat in your server you might have a conflict with the unix [linux.die.net] cat.

try the same commands but add -v before -r and post the output.

And source/destination is what it says:

The "address" to the source material:
/home/username/textfile

The "address" to the destination where the source material shall be processed to:
/mnt/USBSTICK/homework/

Also if you got any problem with linux, the best bet is to [linux.die.net] Read The Fucking Manual as the "Unix" guru's say.
OR
Read the documentation/handbook.

Actually it is there but not back then when I made above post. it just took some time.

Looks like the h3 Folder is there and even the cache folder. only the actual h@h client is missing (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
/edit: seems like part of the Cache is also missing. Maybe I have to wait more.

Did it managed to copy h@h across in the end, Ichy? Now I'm worried. It can take some time for a seedbox to copy a dozen gigabytes, but not this much time.

You can cross check that the command is still running by:

CODE

ps -afe | grep [c]p

And if it is not running and the files are not in place you can repeat the same cp command (and try to keep ssh connection open till it finishes)

The absolute easiest way to check this would be if Ichy could actually print screen the terminal he's working on.

or post the results with the -v/--verbose flag.

You really.. REALLY need to read a book on linux or heck programming in general.

Here's how a command works in Unix:

THECOMMAND(cd, ls, mkdir, cp, mv, etc.) -FLAGS(-v -b -e / --verbose --byte --execute etc.) SOURCE(/root/folder, /etc/users, work.txt, etc.) DESTINATION / DESTINATION SOURCE (/usr/home/user, /var/log/pf.log etc. )

It means that something isn't either configured right (the port number) or there's a firewall blocking your port.

Yes Ichy, you need to read a little.
I helped (just a little but I did) in writting this book, especially for moments like this one:
[en.flossmanuals.net] (IMG:[shop.fsf.org] http://shop.fsf.org/static/images/productimage-picture-introduction_to_command_line-72_t200.png)
My main purpose in helping was to be able to say: "read the fucking manuals!", when people ask questions (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
The book's completely available online, on the link.

Now for that "Startup notification failed" you got, GanGun is probably right that something not configured right. Although, I do not suspect a firewall as you got a seedbox, and having a seedbox behind a firewall would be very stupid from the VM provider part.

You have 2 other h@h servers running on that seedbox therefore you must have more than one IP assigned to the VM. My best guess is that the IP assigned cannot be seen from the internet, i.e. the misconfiguration is on the IP that this h@h sees as it's own. Cross check the IP to run the h@h on by connecting the ftp client (or better ssh) using the intended IP.

It is not as easy as you think it is. (well at least for me) because unlike a normal Seedbox this one required me to set up 'something' for 2 additional IPs and then create 3 Users and make each of them run with the sudo -u h1 java -jar HentaiAtHome.jar --disable_logging command. h2 and h3 for the another ones.
I would have never be able to set it up without help. g just g helped me with it and I woooould have everything written down on a useful txt document if my Computer would not have decided to self destruct some weeks later (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)
