Hello everybody, What might be going wrong here? Is there an upstream bug report? How to proceed? # yum update --refresh CentOS Stream 8 - AppStream 10 kB/s | 4.4 kB 00:00 CentOS Stream 8 - BaseOS 45 kB/s | 3.9 kB 00:00 CentOS Stream 8 - Extras 11 kB/s | 2.9 kB 00:00 CentOS Stream 8 - Extras common packages 57 kB/s | 3.0 kB 00:00 CentOS Stream 8 - PowerTools 19 kB/s | 4.4 kB 00:00 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - x86_64 113 kB/s | 32 kB 00:00 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - Next - x86_64 422 kB/s | 32 kB 00:00 Error: Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package pki-servlet-engine-1:9.0.30-3.module_el8.5.0+854+e1c92b81.noarch - both package tomcat-el-3.0-api-1:9.0.62-12.el8.noarch from appstream and tomcat-lib-1:9.0.62-12.el8.noarch from appstream obsolete pki-servlet-engine - package tomcat-jsp-2.3-api-1:9.0.62-12.el8.noarch from appstream requires tomcat-servlet-4.0-api = 1:9.0.62-12.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - package tomcat-lib-1:9.0.62-12.el8.noarch from appstream requires tomcat-servlet-4.0-api = 1:9.0.62-12.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - package tomcat-servlet-4.0-api-1:9.0.62-12.el8.noarch from appstream is filtered out by modular filtering (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) Kind regards, Jelle de Jong

old website keep reappering in /var/www/html
by Marco Fioretti 27 Sep '23

Greetings, absurd subject, but I don't know how else I could describe what is happening. I have a small static website hosted on a Centos 7 VPS (that I'll update as soon as possible, but what follows is much more urgent, I must absolutely fix it asap). The website is generated by Hugo. I run hugo on my computer, then rsync everything on the server, in the /var/www/html/hugo/MYWEBSITE folder. Everything worked great for years. This week I rebuilt the whole website almost from scratch, using a different hugo theme and updating many pages. Then I ran rsync, checked the new website in my browser, jumping from page to page, and everything worked as expected: new theme, new content, new menus, everything. 2/3 minutes later, the OLD website reappeared, all of it, as if I had not ran rsync at all. For example, in the new website there is a new subfolder called "bio", that did not exist in the old version. If I ssh to the server, cd to /var/www/html/hugo/MYWEBSITE and run "ls -l" RIGHT AFTER running rsync, I see the "bio" subfolder. If I do "ls -l" 3 minutes later, the "bio" subfolder is no more. I have repeated the rsync process 5/6 times before writing this email, and it's always the same. Every time I rsync, what I uploaded lasts 2/3 minutes, then the WHOLE folder on the server is erased and refilled with the previous full version of the website. It's as if there were some hidden cron job somewhere that runs hugo on the OLD source files, but I can't find it. All the standard methods one can find by googling "how to list all cron jobs" don't show anything that may be the reason. THANKS in advance for any help, Marco

ThinkPad battery calibration on CentOS 8
by Toralf Lund 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

Hi Does anyone know of a way to recalibrate the battery on a ThinkPad laptop under CentOS Stream 8? I did this on the same machine before, but I can't recall exactly how. And maybe I was on CentOS 7 at the time. I know about the "tlp" command, but I haven't had much luck with it so far, as shown here: $ sudo tlp recalibrate BAT1 Setting temporary charge thresholds for BAT1: start = 96 (no change) stop = 100 (no change) Error: battery discharge/recalibrate not available. Also, "tlp-stat" says (after displaying status values etc.) +++ Recommendations * Install acpi_call kernel module for ThinkPad battery recalibration I can't seem to find an easy way to install the module in question, though. I also seem to remember that there was a different tool as well, but I've forgotten its name, and a web search returns little of use... Any ideas? - Toralf
