Mount Openfiler created XFS volumes
by Rajagopal Swaminathan 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Greetings, I have a 500Gig hdd with and XFS filesystem created by openfiler (which strangely switched from lovely CentOS for reasons best known to them). I fired up a Centos box with this hdd. I then did yum install kmod-xfs.i686 xfsdump.i386 dmapi xfsprogs and it wnt through. But when I try to mount this volume mount -t xfs /dev/hdd1 /mnt/test I get the error: mount: /dev/hdd1 already mounted or /mnt/test busy I then try xfs_admin -l /dev/hdd1 The results being: xfs_admin: unexpected XFS SB magic number 0x00000000 xfs_admin: read failed: Invalid argument xfs_admin: data size check failed cache_node_purge: refcount was 1, not zero (node=0xa058670) xfs_admin: cannot read root inode (22) label = "(null)" Sure I'm missing something very basic here... Can somebody point my mistake? and some clues to solve this problem... TIA Regards Rajagopal

Hi, Can anyone else confirm that AllowGroup is no longer an accepted configuration option for openssh-server-4.3p2-29.el5. And is this intended or should I be submitting a Bug Report ? Thanks

flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-1 having problems since firefox-3.0.7-3.el4.centos
by Bart Schaefer 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Updated yesterday to the latest firefox from CentOS, and now RPMforge flash-plugin will only play a few seconds of video (such as CNN, iReport, etc.) at a time before becoming stuck; dragging the slider back a little allows it to play a bit further, but then it stops again. YouTube plays the video without sticking, but has no sound. glibc issues on el4 prevent upgrading to the newer flash-plugin or any of the newer modules from the Adobe repo. Has anyone else seen something like this? I've had problems with the sound device before on this machine, which occasionally caused flash to get *entirely* stuck, so (based on no sound on YouTube) I'm going to try rebooting to see if that may be a factor here; but I've never had this particular symptom before.

Yum update corrupted something badly - can only get access through SSH terminal or Webmin
by Dan Roberts 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

Hey there - This morning I ran the yum updater through Webmin as I do every month or so - after about two hours I realized that I still had the same updating screen going - and no response. Seemed strange. Simple attempts to kill it didn't work so I sent a command to reboot the system - that seemed to work, till I turned on the monitor directly connected to the server - I saw this error go by - and then only a spinning cursor - never get to a login screen. (I power cycled again and saw it go by again - and recognized it when I tried again at Webmin and through a terminal connection). Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 28, in ? import yummain File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 29, in ? import cli File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 30, in ? import output File "/usr/share/yum-cli/output.py", line 26, in ? from i18n import _ ImportError: No module named i18n I deleted the yum cash and no improvement. I tried the yum clean and no imporvement [root@trailrunner yum]# yum clean all Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 28, in ? import yummain File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 29, in ? import cli File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 30, in ? import output File "/usr/share/yum-cli/output.py", line 26, in ? from i18n import _ ImportError: No module named i18n [root@trailrunner yum]# Not at all sure what happened or why, or where I even start trying to straighten this mess out. How do I blow away the apparent yum junk in the hope of getting a local login capability back? How or what should I do to reset yum - seems reinstalling the latest version is probably the route. What is the version that CentOS uses? Should I go the RPM route or try something more specific? Totally unexpected problem and leaving me feeling very uncertain about things.

oomath and filter selection
by Jerry Geis 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

Hi all, in Centos 5.2 I could click on and xls file in thunderbird and it would use oomath to open the file. I could do on the command line "oomath file.xls" and it open the file and show it to me no problem either. now in 5.3 (x86_64) in either case above I get a "filter selection" screen. Most of the selections are for Word not excel and if I choose an excel item my oomath opens with a blank page. Any ideas? Jerry

virt-install nographics not working for hvm guest
by lhecking＠users.sourceforge.net 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

I'm trying to set up a fully-virtualised CentOS 3.9 guest under 5.3 using kickstart. This doesn't work at all with a text-only install: virt-install -r 384 -n $host -f $dev -v \ -l $loc \ -x ks=http://$kssrv/centos3.ks \ -m $mac --nographics The installer just sits there and hangs after creating the domain. # virt-install ... Starting install... Creating domain... | 0 B 00:00 # I get better results with a graphical install ( s/--nographics/--vnc/), but the kickstart portion of it doesn't work - the installer stops at the boot prompt. Specifying the kickstart option manually on the boot prompt kicks off a non-interactive install and creates a working guest. So far so good. 1. I presume I'm running into CentOS bug 2975/RH bug 448006, as my workaround is identical. Is there any possible workaround so that I don't need to enter the ks file url at the boot prompt? Are there any alternative boot files/images etc. I could specify? 2. xm console doesn't work # xm create host -c Using config file "./host". Started domain host xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory # I've tried "console=xvc0" on the grub kernel line, no joy. Even after creating the device manually. Any advice?
