reinstall perl packages in Centos5
by israel.garcia＠cimex.com.cu 16 Apr '08

16 Apr '08

Hi, I'm running a CentOS5 email server with mailscanner/postfix/spamassassin.. but it seems I made something with perl that now I get this error when compile ANY package using perl: Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 394. Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 395. Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 396. Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 411. Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 421. Global symbol "%Config" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 433. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Liblist.pm line 7. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MM.pm line 8. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 42. Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 3. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 3. So, I tried to reinstall perl-5.8.8 package and nothing.. my question is: How can I Reinstall all perl packages using yum in CentOS5? Thanks for your time Regards Israel.

Problem with CentOS server: am I running a firewall?
by Timothy Murphy 16 Apr '08

16 Apr '08

I recently tried to swap server from an ancient Asus PIII machine running Fedora-8 to a Dell PowerEdge T105 running Centos-5.1 . Unfortunately, I have not been able to set it up to allow local machines to access the internet. I can access the internet directly from the server (which connects to an ADSL modem) but not from a laptop connected to the server through an ethernet hub or WiFi router. I can ssh into the server from the laptop, but cannot ping anything beyond the server. It is as though there were a firewall running on the server which will not allow packets on the LAN to pass to the internet. This is probably a very ignorant question, but is there such a default firewall running under CentOS? I've gone back to my old server temporarily, but would prefer to sort out the new one if I could. Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.

Upgrading MySQL from 4.1 to 5
by Tito Valentin 16 Apr '08

16 Apr '08

Hello All, I am trying to upgrade MySQL on CentOS 4.5 but having a hard time. I need to go from MySQL 4.1 to 5. I downloaded the following two files: mysql-server-5.0.58-1.el4.centos.i386.rpm mysql-5.0.48-2.el4.centos.i386.rpm I tried to do: yum install mysql-server-5.0.58-1.el4.centos.i386.rpm And get: Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Examining mysql-server-5.0.58-1.el4.centos.i386.rpm: mysql-server - 5.0.58-1.el4.centos.i386 Marking mysql-server-5.0.58-1.el4.centos.i386.rpm as an update to mysql-server - 4.1.20-3.RHEL4.1.el4_6.1.i386 Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

How do I get libmysqlclient.so.15 installed if I have libmysqlclient.so.10 installed because it looks like that is what it needs to be able to complete or at least go through my upgrade. Thanks, T

How to create static routes on startup with CentOS4?
by Eric B. 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

Hi, I'm working with the iproute2/iptables toolset on my CentOS4 server to create custom routing rules. However, I'm a bit at a loss how to create these permanently so that they are automatically reloaded upon reboot of the server. I know that iptables has a config file in /etc/sysconfig/iptables that is loaded by /etc/init.d/iptables startup script. Is there anything that works similarly for the iproute2 ruleset? I can't seem to find anything in /etc/init.d/network except for references to static routes using /sbin/route, which isn't good enough if one wants to use multiple routing tables. Nor can I find anything in /etc/init.d/ that would seem applicable to the iproute2 system. Any ideas/suggestions? Do I have to create my own custom startup script for this? Or is there somewhere already existant I can put iproute2 commands? Thanks! Eric

nis and new users
by Jason Pyeron 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

Every time a "new" user logs into a development box (which does not use nfs for the home dirs) the get could not chdir to their home dir. They call me with the error and I do a: cp -a /etc/skel/ ~USER && chown USER.users -R ~USER/ and it is fixed.

yum update did not complete
by Jerry Geis 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

I was doing a yum update today. It downloaded all the packages. was doing the next part and my remote connection was lost. so ssh session was killed. When I logged back in I am not sure if the update is done or not. I presume not. I presume it died with my remote session. I do a yum update now and it returns as if there is nothing to update. last I saw it was 30 out of 312 in the installation section. What next? Jerry

NIS libuser and auto-make of maps
by Ross S. W. Walker 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

I have my NIS user/group files separate from the system user/group files using libuser to manage them and that works well, but I am trying to find a way to get libuser to invoke a 'make' of the NIS maps whenever it updates the master files. Is there a routine I can configure in libuser to do this, or am I stuck having to do it by cron? Ross S. W.
