Hi, My clamav is complaining that the version is outdated. There is a new one 0.100 but epel is not updating the rpm. Why is there a delay? Adrian -- Adri P. van Bloois "Elegance is not a dispensable luxury but a factor that decides between success and failure." Edsger W. Dijkstra

'gnome-daemon-settings' Doesn't Start When Attempting To Make Changes
by Paul E. Virgo 30 May '18

30 May '18

All, So here's the issue: The system - a Dell Precision M4800 The OS - CentOS 6.9, ver. 2.6.32-696.28.1 The problem - Whenever the user tries to make system changes (display, mouse orientation, etc.), the gnome-settings-daemon pops up and says it can't run, and the changes never occur. I've looked into the /var/log/messages, and have seen some weirdness from dbus-daemon such as: > dbus-daemon: [system] Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; > type="method_call", sender=":1.15" (uid=42 pid=5042 > comm="gnome-power-manager) > interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel" > member="SetBrightness" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 > destination=":1.1" (uid=68 pid=2920 comm="hald)) And.. > dbus-daemon: [system] Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; > type="method_return", sender=":1.1" (uid=0 pid=2912 > comm="NetworkManager) interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error > name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.52" (uid=2290 > pid=4122 comm="nm-applet)) Any ideas?

Yum dependency failure installing latest LibreOffice
by Fred Smith 29 May '18

29 May '18

I've been bashing my head on the wall for 2 or 3 hours for something that should be (and has been, in the past) simple. Trying to install the latest LibreOffice downloaded from Libreoffice.org. I had 6.0.1.1 and downloaded 6.4.0.2, and kept getting dependency errors: --> Running transaction check ---> Package libobasis6.0-base.x86_64 0:6.0.4.2-2 will be installed ---> Package libobasis6.0-calc.x86_64 0:6.0.4.2-2 will be installed ---> Package libobasis6.0-core.x86_64 0:6.0.4.2-2 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libreoffice6.0-ure <= 6.0.4.2-2 for package: libobasis6.0-core-6.0.4.2-2.x86_64 Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.net.cen.ct.gov * elrepo: mirrors.coreix.net * epel: fedora-epel.mirrors.tds.net * epel-debuginfo: fedora-epel.mirrors.tds.net * extras: linux.cc.lehigh.edu * nux-dextop: mirror.li.nux.ro * updates: mirror.atlanticmetro.net --> Processing Dependency: libreoffice6.0-ure >= 6.0.4.2 for package: libobasis6.0-core-6.0.4.2-2.x86_64 while trying to work around that I "yum remove"d all existing libreoffice rpms, but that didn't fix it. the file libreoffice6.0-ure-6.0.4.2-2.x86_64.rpm exists in the same directory as all the other files I'm trying to install, and as far as its filename goes, it is the version that yum is demanding. I tried installing the version I had previously been using, and I get the equivalent error when trying that too. Back when I installed it, I got no such errors. Note that I am now on the 7.5 version, 7.5 (1804), and when I previously installed 6.0 I was still on the previous release, so I wonder if yum has become broken during the 7.5 run-up. A lot of time had transpired here and I was getting a little warm under the collar, so I tried: rpm -ivh *.rpm which worked just fine. voila! I did this with the older version, but I wanted the newer one, so I did "yum remove libreoffice\* libobasis\*" and it complained about the RPM database being modified, but it did the deed. then I tried installing 6.4.0.2 again, with yum, which still gives the same error. Once again, rpm is my friend. Anybody got any ideas what's wrong with my system? (or is yum broken??) thanks in advance!

CentOS6: HELP! EFI boot fails after replacing disks...
by Robert Heller 29 May '18

29 May '18

OK, I wanted to replace the 500G disks in a Dell T20 server with new 2TB disks. The machine has 4 SATA ports, one used for the optical disk and three for the hard drives. It is set up with /dev/sda and /dev/sdb with each three partitions: 1 -- VFAT (for EFI) 2 -- ext4 (for /boot) 3 -- LVM /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2 are a mirror raid (/dev/md0) /dev/sda3 and /dev/sdb3 are a mirror raid (/dev/md1), with LVM on top of that. /dev/sdc is a disk containing one file system and mostly used by AMANDA for backup (it has a "virtual" tape changer). This morning I shut the machine down and pulled [the 500G] /dev/sdb and installed a new 2TB disk as a new /dev/sdb. Partitioned it (with parted) to be much like /dev/sda (except partition 3 is way bigger). I added the new /dev/sdb2 to /dev/sda2 (boot raid set) and dd'ed /dev/sda1 to /dev/sdb1. I then created a new RAID set (degraded) with /dev/sdb3, used pvcreate on it, used vgextend to add it to the system volume group, then used pvmove to move the extents from the old disk to the new disk. Meanwhile I partitioned a second 2TB disk using a USB SATA dock and copied the old 500G /dev/sdc1 to the new 2TB disk. So far so good. Then I shut the machine down, swapped in the new backup [2TB] disk and pulled the old system [500G] disk and installed the third new [2TB] disk. The system won't boot that way. It seems there is something in the UEFI (secure boot) logic that wants the original disk, even if everything is moved over. I ended up putting the original /dev/sda in. The machine boots and is using the new system disk (a raid array in degraded mode). What is the magic to fix this? I tried to run efibootmgr, but it wants a model named efivars loaded, but there is no such module available. What am I missing? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services

yum hangs and results in problems
by Gary Stainburn 29 May '18

29 May '18

My live mail server was due an update so I ran yum update All seemed file so I told it to proceed. HOwever it then hung for over 30 minutes. I stopped the update and tried again. It complained about problems with the update, so I tried yum --skip-broken -y update which then hung at a different place. After some Googling I tried yum-complete-transaction and package-cleanup --cleandupes both of which failed. I then using my "Microsoft" head I thought I'd try rebooting to see if that fixes it. This of course was a big mistake as my server now crashes on bootup. I have managed to get it back up and running by selecting a version of the kernel that is 3 versions old. I have now tried yum history yum history remove 115 (which failed) package-cleanup --cleandupes (which failed) yum-complete-transaction (which failed) yum-complete-transaction --cleanup-only (which worked) followed by [root@ollie2 /]# package-cleanup --problems Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks Package 1:NetworkManager-glib-1.10.2-14.el7_5.x86_64 has installed conflicts NetworkManager-libnm < ('1', '1.10.2', '14.el7_5'): 1:NetworkManager-libnm-1.8.0-11.el7_4.x86_64 Package avahi-glib-0.6.31-19.el7.x86_64 has installed conflicts avahi < ('0', '0.6.31', '19.el7'): avahi-0.6.31-17.el7.x86_64 Package ipa-common-4.5.0-22.el7.centos.noarch has installed conflicts freeipa-common: ipa-common-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.1.noarch Package ipa-common-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.1.noarch has installed conflicts freeipa-common: ipa-common-4.5.0-22.el7.centos.noarch Package ipa-common-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.1.noarch has installed conflicts freeipa-python < ('0', '4.5.4', None): ipa-python-compat-4.5.0-22.el7.centos.noarch Package python2-ipalib-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.1.noarch has installed conflicts freeipa-python < ('0', '4.5.4', None): ipa-python-compat-4.5.0-22.el7.centos.noarch [root@ollie2 /]# I'm now running yum check which has also taken 30 minutes so far. Questions 1) Any ideas why my yum runs keep hanging, and what I can do to fix it? 2) How do I go about fixing the problems listed above? 3) What do I need to do to get my server back in a safe, consistant state?

The centos(a)centos.org seems to be *uniquely* configured to hold messages with a (single) CC to self. ALL of the other mailing lists I am on have no problem with a CC to self. My mailer software is configured to CC to myself. This is *only* a problem with the CentOS list. Why is this? Yes, I know it is *normal* to configure Mailman to hold messages with a *long* CC list, since that is a common tactic by spammers. But a CC of one? Really? Do spammers bother with CC's with only one address? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services
