Yum updates packages for other arch too
by Christian Huegel 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi, I have the x86_64 arch on my server so therfore i expect that yum updates only x86_64 packages. With the last *yum update* i´ve noticed a strange behaviour while retrieving the needed packeges. As you you see, yum wants install packages for different architectures: glibc x86_64 2.3.4-2.25 base 4.9 M glibc i686 2.3.4-2.25 base 5.1 M . . . dmraid i386 1.0.0.rc11-3_RHEL4_U4 base 396 k and the list continues. This ends with an bunch of unresolved dependencies. ################################# My yum.conf: [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=centos-release tolerant=1 #exclude=kernel* exactarch=1 retries=20 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d ############################ and here the CentOS-Base.repo: ############################################################# [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 #released updates [update] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 #packages used/produced in the build but not released [addons] name=CentOS-$releasever - Addons mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/addons/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 #additional packages that may be useful [extras] name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 #additional packages that extend functionality of existing packages [centosplus] name=CentOS-$releasever - Plus mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/centosplus/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 #contrib - packages by Centos Users [contrib] name=CentOS-$releasever - Contrib mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/contrib/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 ################################### How can be this possible?

Remote upload apache files
by Tom Elsesser 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi all, I need to upload files to /var/www/html on our remote centos box. The perms on /var/www/html are stock from the install, (drwxr-xr-x root.root). I set the box for ftp, but (obviously) normal users can't write to that directory. I don't want to allow root ftp logins (I've also disabled root ssh logins, so scp doesn't work either), and I don't know how secure it is to change ownership of the html directory. Can someone float me a couple of hints on how to accomplish this? TIA, -- Tom

Up2date-Problems
by Timothy Kesten 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi Folks, as recommended I have only updated up2date , up2date-gnome.# All other packages deselected. Run uptodate - okay. But now I have no channels in up2date - I can't update my system. If I try to start up2date I get this error message: Exception type exceptions.ValueError Exception Handler Information Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet.py", line 521, in refresh self.model.refresh(force) File "/usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet_model.py", line 450, in refresh source.refresh(force) File "/usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet_source.py", line 35, in refresh self._do_refresh() File "/usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet_rpc.py", line 209, in _do_refresh server = self.create_server() File "/usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet_rpc.py", line 87, in create_server s.add_trusted_cert(self.__cert__) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/rhn/rpclib.py", line 466, in add_trusted_cert self._transport.add_trusted_cert(certfile) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/rhn/transports.py", line 294, in add_trusted_cert raise ValueError, "Certificate file %s is not accessible" % certfile ValueError: Certificate file /usr/share/rhn/CNS-CA-CERT is not accessible No channels visible. Up2date says system is uptodate But it isn't so because I only updated up2date. And now???? Timothy

Key mishmash
by Milan Keršláger 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi, copy your key from /etc/rndc.conf to /var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.key if you are unable to contact your bind (DNS) server after the last update. For more info, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203070#c4 Secret must be the same or chrooted bind is unable to talk to rndc (ie: '/etc/init.d/named status' for example). -- Milan Kerslager E-mail: milan.kerslager(a)pslib.cz WWW: http://www.pslib.cz/ke/

OT: CentOS hosting recommendations
by first last 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi everyone, I am looking for a dedicated server with CentOS. Any recommendations? Ideally I would like to use one of the CentOS sponsors, but I think that there are far too many to be able to compare them all by refreshing (maybe there is a page with just a list of links to sponsors but I couldn't find it).

grep question
by Jerry Geis 30 Aug '06

30 Aug '06

if I have a file that has more than these two entries bats@tt net-bats@tt and I do a "grep -v bats" (intention was to get everything except bats but net-bats was mistakenly grepped) How do I specify the beginning of the line and match after that so bats is caught not net-bats? THanks for any suggestions. Jerry
