@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw https://sqlite.org/src/file?ci=wal2&name=doc%2Fwal2.md is the one for the wal2-only branch. 13:16:24
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw I do not mean to ship this, it's more a quick experiment to see whether or in what ways a better database may help. 13:17:31
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw Not that I expect wal2 to be perfect either, a client-server database might offer some advantages in terms of write amplification, but of course it's a pain to manage. 13:18:43

@zitrone:utwente.iozitrone Anyone got an idea what error: cannot change ownership of '/nix/var/nix/b/5i50qd60sib1gcpvdmbrr667pd': Invalid argument means, and what i could do about it?
It happens on one of my machines any time when i try to build a package that actually needs building (not cached).
/nix/var/nix/b is drwxr-xr-x root root like on my laptop, where the error is not happening. 		01:18:21
@zitrone:utwente.iozitrone i found the problem: containers
the other computer it fails on is a lxc container
the container only has 16 bit UID and GIDs
because of that it fails to chown :872415232 /nix/var/nix/b/5i50qd60sib1gcpvdmbrr667pd: "Invalid argument" 		04:23:39
@zitrone:utwente.iozitrone * i found the problem: containers

@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw Are you connecting from outside the container? Also what exactly are you doing, that ID looks suspiciously like one assigned by auto-allocate-uids but that should be about the builder uids, whereas the whown should happen to the requester uid. 05:16:19

@k900:0upti.meK900This is on the daemon, presumably07:33:03
@aijokey:matrix.orgAijokeyIs there any way to fix, i cant switch07:47:21
@k900:0upti.meK900Are you running some sort of "hardened" setup?07:47:34

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyou can build without the daemon the system09:23:41
@aijokey:matrix.orgAijokey
In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org
you can build without the daemon the system
How? 		09:24:02
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius NIX_REMOTE=local <your command that rebuilds your system> if that respects environment variables 09:24:18
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusbut i'm more concerned that you are reaching open files limit with the daemon09:24:30
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius what does systemctl cat nix-daemon show? 09:24:38
@aijokey:matrix.orgAijokey
In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org
what does systemctl cat nix-daemon show?
For now I can't access pc, no electricity 		09:25:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusNo problem, let us know when you can access it again09:25:31
@aijokey:matrix.orgAijokeyOK09:25:40
@crop_tech:matrix.orgcrop i am on lix 2.93.3 and tried to setup a remote builder following https://docs.lix.systems/manual/lix/stable/advanced-topics/distributed-builds.html and https://nix.dev/tutorials/nixos/distributed-builds-setup but it failes with this message in the systemd log of nix-daemon
Dec 08 03:27:33 silent nix-daemon[20189]: error: error processing connection: user 'nixremote' is not allowed to connect to the Nix daemon 		11:11:49
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius can you do nix show-config on the remote system? 11:18:49
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius * can you do nix config show on the remote system? 11:18:59
