mdadm problem.
by David Mackintosh 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

So I'm trying to RAID-1 this system which has two identical disks installed in it, and it isn't working for some reason. I started by doing a CentOS-4 install on /dev/sda1 as root, and with /dev/sda2 as my swap. I finish the install, yum update, and then I want to make the mirrors. I copy the partition table from one disk to the other: # sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sfdisk /dev/sdb I create my metadevices: # mdadm -Cv -l1 -n2 /dev/md1 /dev/sdb1 missing # mdadm -Cv -l1 -n2 /dev/md2 /dev/sdb2 missing I create my filesystems: # mkfs.ext3 /dev/md1 # mkswap /dev/md2 I change the /etc/fstab to use /dev/md1 for / and /dev/md2 for swap. I change the /etc/grub.conf to use /dev/md1 for the root= parameter on my kernel. I build myself a new initrd for the kernel I want to boot. I copy the contents of / over to the one-armed mirror: # cd / # mnt /dev/md1 /mnt/md1 # tar cfpl - . | ( cd /mnt/md1 ; tar xfp -) # umount /mnt/md1 # sync I run grub just in case: # grub > device (hd0) /dev/sda > root (hd0,0) > setup (hd0) I reboot, expecting that the system will find /dev/md1 and use it as its root... but it doesn't. Digging around in hobbled mode (changing the root= parameter in grub to /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/md1) shows that /dev/md1 doesn't get assembled, therefore it doesn't get mounted. Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong? -- /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh | dave(a)xdroop.com | http://www.xdroop.com

General question about PHP - continued with mod_python
by Wei Yu 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Oops, I just missed the python part. Does mod_python have similar options? Or how to stop other users to run python scripts in some directories?

General question about PHP
by Wei Yu 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hello, Is that possible to disable running of PHP on certain directories? I am running a server which provides personal homepage service. However, not every user are familiar with security, some may upload some PHP scripts with bugs/holes. I do not want them to be executed on the server. I can enable the safe_mode, but I have some other PHP scripts which need safe_mode to be disabled. Any suggestions? Regards, Wei Yu

hosting panel
by Michael Kress 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi there, what's your favorite (OS) hosting panel for centos5 ? What's most interesting for me is the usability by others i.e. users who don't know the tool very much, so it has to be very simple. Second is of course security. Greetings & TIA Michael -- Michael Kress, kress(a)hal.saar.de http://www.michael-kress.de / http://kress.net P E N G U I N S A R E C O O L

changing then main menu icon
by Frank Cox 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

What icon do I need to change or substitute (or what file should I edit) to get a custom icon for the Centos 5 main menu? I found a whole stack of "shadowman-*" icons, but nothing that says anything about "main menu". -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com

CentOS Plus PHP5 upgrade.
by David Mackintosh 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi Folks, I have some users who have a 64-bit CentOS 4.x install (current), which was installed with @Everything and then some annoying packages strategically removed (mrtg, pegasus*, mailman...) and they have decided they have a need for php5. I find on the web this instruction for doing this: http://www.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/Readme.txt So I try to do this, and I get: # rpm -e php-domxml # yum --enablerepo=centosplus upgrade php* [...] --> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.22.9 for package: php-pear --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.22.9 is needed by package php-pear So I try to remove this blocking package: # rpm -e php-pear error: Failed dependencies: php-pear is needed by (installed) php-4.3.9-3.22.9.x86_64 I try to get cute: # rpm -e --force php-pear rpm: only installation, upgrading, rmsource and rmspec may be forced (Heh.) So I can't be the first person to go down this road. Can anyone provide a hint as to how to get out of the hole I've dug for myself? Thanks for your time. -- /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh | dave(a)xdroop.com | http://www.xdroop.com
