Perl package problems
by Anne Wilson 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

For a while now I've been seeing skipped-package notices, which I don't really understand. I know it's a version mis-match, but all my attempts to sort it out have failed, so I need help, please. The current state is Skipping filters plugin, no data --> Running transaction check ---> Package perl-Compress-Zlib.x86_64 0:2.020-119.el6 will be obsoleted ---> Package perl-IO-Compress.noarch 0:2.037-1.el6.rfx will be obsoleting --> Processing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) = 2.037 for package: perl-IO-Compress-2.037-1.el6.rfx.noarch ---> Package perl-IO-Compress-Base.x86_64 0:2.020-119.el6 will be obsoleted ---> Package perl-IO-Compress-Zlib.x86_64 0:2.020-119.el6 will be obsoleted --> Finished Dependency Resolution Packages skipped because of dependency problems: perl-IO-Compress-2.037-1.el6.rfx.noarch from rpmforge-extras Can someone please tell me what needs erasing/installing/updating to get this cleaned up? Thanks Anne -- New to KDE Software? Got some good hints and tips? - Welcome to http://userbase.kde.org

Cause for kernel panic
by Nicolas Ross 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Hi ! On an 8-node cluster, one of the node did a kernel panic. The only bit of information I have is on a ssh console I had open, which said : Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:------------[ cut here ]------------ Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:last sysfs file: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu15/cache/index2/shared_cpu_map Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:Stack: Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:Call Trace: Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:Code: 01 00 00 e8 26 8a cd e0 85 c0 0f 85 0e ff ff ff 48 89 df e8 76 f8 ff ff e9 01 ff ff ff 31 d2 eb d4 48 89 de 31 ff e8 c3 e3 ff ff <0f> 0b eb fe 66 66 66 66 66 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 55 48 Message from syslogd@node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception From this, is there a way to determine the cause ? kdump is not confirgured nor used, since the fencing of the node renders kdump useless. This is the second time in a few weeks it happens.

Missing nss dependency nss-softokn
by Cal Webster 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

I'm getting yum update errors when attempting to update nss: --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: nss-3.12.10-2.el6_1.x86_64 (updates) Requires: nss-softokn(x86-64) >= 3.12.9 Installed: nss-softokn-3.12.7-1.1.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-CentOS-201106060106.x86_64/6.0) nss-softokn(x86-64) = 3.12.7-1.1.el6 I realize I need to swap in the 6.1 ISO on our internal mirror but the missing package doesn't appear to be on the mirrors either. I can't see nss-softokn-3.12.10-2.el6_1.x86_64.rpm anywhere on the mirrors. I checked the updates and cr repos on the Duke mirror for 6.0 and 6.1 but no joy. Did this one fall through the cracks or are the mirrors still syncing up? I'm happy to wait if it's just a timing issue but I wanted to be sure the list knew, just in case. ./Cal

Apache httpd-2.2.15 updates
by drsystems＠globalcerts.net 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Hello, I am working on a CentOS Linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 system. I noticed that the system came with httpd-2.2.15-6 installed. After I run 'yum update' I get httpd-2.2.15-9. I did some research on the Internet, but can't find the following information: are most of the security fixes that appear in httpd-2.2.21 applied to the update on httpd-2.2.15-9? There was a security fix just last August, the CVE-2011-3192 on Range and DoS. I don't imagine that this is in the 2.2.15-9. Do you have plans to provide this patch in the repository so that 'yum update httpd*' would get this patch? Thank you in advance, Dirce Richards Systems Engineer, GlobalCerts

Unplugging DVI causes Disabling IRQ #11
by Scott Johnson 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

I have some new PC hardware I'm using with the Intel H67 chipset. I created a bzImage I use for a PXE environment for a recovery mode, installing OS images, etc. The new mobo doesn't have a VGA port but instead DVI. Everytime I unplug the DVI cable it seems to cause "Disabling IRQ #11". After that the PC is basically unusable. The /proc/interrupts shows that hdd, usb, nic, RAID controller for some reason all share the same interrupt. What the heck? I tried booting with acpi=off and the bios doesn't seem to offer any IRQ/PnP options. Am I missing a specific driver in my bzImage for the H67 chipset or any ideas of what I could try next? It's been a sad day. bash-2.05b# cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 15185951 XT-PIC-XT timer 1: 4 XT-PIC-XT i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC-XT cascade 7: 75 XT-PIC-XT ehci_hcd:usb2 8: 1 XT-PIC-XT rtc 11: 2090574 XT-PIC-XT ahci, ehci_hcd:usb1, eth0, rr172x I even see a similar error on a fresh CentOS 5.7 install: irq 169: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff800bdf66>] __report_bad_irq+0x30/0x7d [<ffffffff800be1a4>] note_interrupt+0x1f1/0x232 [<ffffffff800bd6a5>] __do_IRQ+0xfa/0x140 [<ffffffff8006d4c1>] do_IRQ+0xe9/0xf7 [<ffffffff8005d615>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0xa <EOI> [<ffffffff801a2220>] acpi_safe_halt+0x25/0x36 [<ffffffff801a2a88>] acpi_processor_idle_simple+0xe6/0x31c [<ffffffff801a29a2>] acpi_processor_idle_simple+0x0/0x31c [<ffffffff80048fe2>] cpu_idle+0x95/0xb8 [<ffffffff80078a9a>] start_secondary+0x479/0x488 handlers: [<ffffffff801fc748>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x55) Disabling IRQ #169 Thanks for any help. -ScottEJ

Yum metadata / CR problems
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Hi, after the release of 6.1 I have to do a "yum clean all" on all my 6.0 machines in order to make yum work again. The reason is that the old CR directory on the mirrors is now empty and the new one isn't used until I actually upgrade the system to 6.1 (or at least the centos-release package). Isn't there a better way to handle this without breaking yum? I'm also not quite sure why the "yum clean all" is required. It has been a few days now since 6.1 has been released so shouldn't the cached metadata have been expired by now anyway or is there metadata that has unusually long caching times? Regards, Dennis

When will 6.2 be released.
by Johnny Hughes 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Let's go ahead and get this flame thread started now to save time. The CentOS team sucks ... it took XXXX days to do 6.1 ... it is going to take twice as long to get 6.2 My mom said CentOS blows. kbsingh is ugly. hughesjr is old and fat. OK ... that should do.

Using an MS Access database from CentOS release 5.7 (Final)
by Ron Young 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

@Work requires me to manipulate the MS Access database (mdb) file located on an XP box that is an integral part of a third party application that is central to the business. Does anyone have experience doing so? I have used odbtp in the recent past but it is extremely difficult to set up on the linux box as I learned when I recently upgraded from CentOS 4.x to 5.x. Is there another way to get read and write access to the mdb file from apache/php running from the linux box? A couple of hours of googling last night has resulted in finding very expensive odbc drivers for the linux box and nothing really foss except the odbc driver managers. Regards, Ron Young 919-621-9015 http://www.linkedin.com/in/ronhyoung +++++++++++++++++++ Little tiny dreams require little tiny thoughts and little tiny steps.

CentOS 6, yum-updatesd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Back in the Fedora docs I found on a google, it mentions that in FC6, the preferred tool for updates was the "new" yum-updatesd. Anyone know: a) what theological reason upstream had to drop it altogether, and b) what's the recommended replacement - is it yum-cron? I hand-update some servers, and of course users' workstations, but some system, like home directory servers and backup servers are extremely unlikely to break with an autoupdate, so this is of immediate interest. mark
