My Pepper went nuts. I am trying to do factory reset to my Pepper robot via Settings menu. It asks for username and password. If i insert them then it says
No response from the server or unknown error
When i insert wrong password it says wrong password so that means it gets connection.
For another Pepper robot this function works good. Is there another way to do factory reset to Pepper?I saw there is void function in ALSystem that does it but it seems very risky to me.
Are you sure your robot is connected to the Internet (using wifi or ethernet)?
If you have the image downloaded (.opn) on your computer, you can use Choregraphe to flash the robot without requiring any internet connection (see "connection" menu > advanced > update robot system)
If you are familiar with command lines:
1) upload the image to the robot using scp scp the-file.opn nao#ip-of-your-robot:./update.opn or filezilla (host: ip address of the robot, user: nao, password: only you know it!, port 22).
2) connect using ssh to the robot (putty on windows) and type: nao-autoflash --erase-user-data ./update.opn.
3) restart the robot.
You can also use choregraphe.
Connect with your robot on choregraphe.
click on connection -> advanced -> update robot system
follow the instruction (enter robot password,browse the opn file)
after you will see this window :
click on yes I want to apply a factory reset...
and you will complete your factory reset.

I have a Centos VM on Google Cloud, I am using a custom SSH port and private SSH file to manage my VM.It worked fine for a long time but yesterday I started the "FirewallD" service in CentOS but I forgot to add a rule to allow my custom SSH port.
Now I can't connect to my VM through SSH, I also have tried to connect my VM through Web Console ("Open in browser window on custom port" and Open in browser window using provided private SSH key),neither of them works.
Are there any other solutions?
If you don’t have access through ssh at your vm, you could use the serial port to login
Go to the VM instances page in Google Cloud Platform console.
Click on the instance for which you want to add a startup script.
Click the Edit button at the top of the page.
Click on ‘Enable connecting to serial ports’
Click Save and then click RESET on the top of the page. You might need to wait for some time for the instance to reboot.
Click on 'Connect to serial port' in the page.
If you don’t have a root password for the serial console, you could use a startup script to add it to your instance, the script would be like this:
Go to the VM instances page in Google Cloud Platform console.
Click on the instance for which you want to add a startup script.
Click the Edit button at the top of the page.
Click on ‘Enable connecting to serial ports’
Under Custom metadata, click Add item.
Set 'Key' to 'startup-script' and set 'Value' to this script:
#! /bin/bash
useradd -G <an existing group in the instance> USERNAME
echo USERNAME:PASSWORD | chpasswd
Click Save and then click RESET on the top of the page. You might need to wait for some time for the instance to reboot.
Click on 'Connect to serial port' in the page.
In the new window, you might need to wait a bit and press on Enter of your keyboard once; then, you should see the login prompt.
Login using the USERNAME and PASSWORD you provided.
In this way you can login at the vm and stop the firewall service to modify your rules before to start the service again
I have a requirement to automate one of my application which is accessible only through Remote desktop connection.
I normally connect to the application using following steps
1) Navigate to remote desktop connection and enter Ip address
2) Enter Server User id ,password
3) Then open application using browser.
Please help with the steps.
You can break your problems in 2steps :
1. Login to the box via java code (or any other preferable language, you are comfortable).
Remote Desktop Connection
JAVA
// creating credentials
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmdkey /generic:"+ip+" /user:"+userName+" /pass:"+password );
p.destroy();
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("mstsc /v: "+ip+" /f /console");
Thread.sleep(2*60*1000); // min sec millisec
// deleting credentials
Process p1 = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmdkey /delete:"+ip);
p1.destroy();
Once you able to login to the box, it is as simple as launching the browser, opening the application and running your scripts(these scripts should be present on your remote desktop where you want to run your scripts). This is pretty straight forward.
I have restarted our google cloud compute engine instance, however after the restart ssh is no longer working and giving connection refused.
I have verified and the ssh keys are configured for the users, and firewall rules are open for ssh.
Is there any other method I can use to try and resolve this?
The first thing to do is to check the Serial console output of the machine to determine if the SSH daemon has started or not. That log can be accessed from the Developer Console.
If you couldn't ssh to the instance you can follow the below step to access the instance from the serial console:
Connect to the instance using the serial console
1. Go to the VM instances page in Google Cloud Platform console.
2. Click on the instance for which you want to add a startup script.
3. Click the Edit button at the top of the page.
4. Click on ‘Enable connecting to serial ports’
5. Under Custom metadata, click Add item.
6. Set 'Key' to 'startup-script' and set 'Value' to this script:
#! /bin/bash
useradd -G sudo USERNAME
echo 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' | chpasswd
7. Click Save and then click RESET on the top of the page. You might need to wait for some time for the instance to reboot.
8. Click on 'Connect to serial port' in the page.
9. In the new window, you might need to wait a bit and press on Enter of your keyboard once; then, you should see the login prompt.
10. Login using the USERNAME and PASSWORD you provided.
I'm running a mongodb process with the following line:
/usr/bin/mongod --dbpath /var/db/mongo --journal
According to mongodb's docs:
http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Http+Interface
I should be able to access the http console with http://myhost:28017
When I attempt to access the page it asks for authentication.
According to the docs if security is configured I would need to authenticate. But after looking at mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Security+and+Authentication it seems clear to me I'm not using any authentication. I don't run the process with the --auth option, nor are there any users when I run a db.system.users.find() command.
What's going on here?
I have been able to reproduce this, and this is not the intended behavior. I have filed https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-4601 The fix version is 2.1.1
Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
In the meantime, there are two work-arounds:
1) Enter the credentials for authentication in the browser pop-up window
2) Remove all user credentials from each of your DBs (including admin) using db.system.users.remove()
Either of these should allow you to view the http console.
Greetings Brain,
i am using mongo V 2.4.6 and its on default port 27017, its http console is enabled by default but when you try to access from Network it ask for password and i dont know why as i am new to this and dont know the exact reason. by i have a way to access it.
Create a tunnel to your mongo Server and when you access, it wont ask for password. and if you are using putty.
enter host name
go to ssh on left menu options and click +
Than Click on tunnel
in Source port type 28017
in destination type localhost colon port 28017(sorry dont know how to write http url in localhost here in my post)
not click open and provide ssh username and password
now open browser on PC from where you are doing ssh .Type localhost and port 28017
and Boom its accessible and wont ask for username and password. hope it work for you, let me know if u need any help.
I got a CVS connection string, here it is :
:ssh;username=dummy;password=dummy;hostname=repos.mooo.com:/home/projects/repos
How can I get project code using WinCvs, I've just installed it and I can't find howto online, maybe some help, thank you
In WinCVS 2.1, Click the Remote menu item, and select Checkout code.
On this screen click the ... next to CVSROOT, and you should bring up a dialog allowing you to enter the parameters you mention in your question (this is a bit easier to do than trying to enter the string manually).
You'll also need to enter a module name on the server, and a directory to check our the code into, but once you do this and click OK you should start checking out the code.
You have to use WinCVS with the PuTTY SSH tools to be able to connect securely. Check out the description here
The site covers the following steps
Download the required materials (WinCvs, PuTTY).
Install the PuTTY SSH suite.
Install WinCvs.
Generate a SSH key pair.
Upload your SSH key pair.
Configure Pageant (a component of PuTTY).
Test your automated authentication.
Configure WinCvs.
Start using WinCvs
