Memory vs. Display Card
by Rick 28 Oct '25

28 Oct '25

Since memory has become quite cheap lately I decided to move from 2 GB to 6. When I installed the memory every thing was fine until I went to run level 5. At that point the screen turned to garbage and the system froze. Is there a way to fix this so I can use the memory I bought? Do I need a new display card?

Redirecting PHP error messages into a log file
by Alexander Farber 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Hello, I'm using CentOS release 5.5 x86_64 with the stock php-5.1.6-27.el5 and would like to redirect PHP messages into /var/log/httpd/php_log First I tried adding that file name to /etc/php.ini: error_log = "/var/log/httpd/php_log" and restarted httpd, but the file didn't appear. I've touched it and changed owner to apache.apache, but that didn't help. Then I've changed that line to error_log = syslog and now I get the messages in /var/log/messages: Jul 29 21:29:24 hXXX httpd: PHP Notice: Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44 Jul 29 21:29:45 hXXX httpd: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44 I still would like to move those message to a separate file though, so I've added the following line to /etc/syslog.conf and reloaded syslogd service: httpd.* /var/log/httpd/php_log but the file is still empty. Any hints please? Thank you Alex -- http://preferans.de

Lingering dhclient issue
by Alfred von Campe 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

I recently reconfigured some CentOS 4.3 systems that were using DHCP to use static IP addresses. At the same time, the systems were moved to a new VLAN. Here is the approximate sequence of events that took place: 1. ifdown eth0 2. edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with static IP address 3. wait for network folks to reconfigure switch 4. ifup eth0 I may have reversed steps 1 and 2 on some of the systems. The problem was that the dhclient process didn't go away, and kept renewing the old lease. Our DHCP server is configured to contact the DNS server and update the entry for each host it serves. So the DNS entries for these systems were pointing to the old address in the old VLAN. The eth0 interface itself just kept the static IP address for which it was configured. It took me a while to figure out what was going on. My question is, what could I have done to avoid this (other than killing the dhclient process)? Is there a better way to reconfigure an interface to use a static address? I am not interested in solutions that involve using a GUI (i.e., only command line solutions). Thanks, Alfred

Intel DH67BL + CentOS 5.5 IRQ #177 nobody cared
by Drew Weaver 19 Apr '11

19 Apr '11

Hello, We have built a couple of CentOS 5.5 systems on the Intel DH67BL (Sandy Bridge) motherboard and overall they work pretty well. I'm having one problem which keeps cropping up and that is an error message that says: IRQ 177 nobody cared (try booting with the irqpoll option) report bad irq, references CPU idle then it references usb_hcd_irq and e1000_intr then it disables the add-on PCI E1000 card and disconnects itself from the network. I'm assuming what is happening here is the USB controller and the add-on E1000 controller we put in are having an old school IRQ conflict, the question is why and how can I avoid it? I have tried disabling all of the extra stuff in the BIOS that I could, and this still happens fairly frequently. Any advice would be great. thanks, -Drew

To PAE or not to PAE...
by John Doe 16 Apr '11

16 Apr '11

Hi, I was wondering if anyone would know the cons of running a PAE kernel...? I have a 4GB pc and was wondering if it was worth going the PAE way to gain those exta 700MB... In the past, I heard that these 700MB were normally reserved for bios or chipset stuff... And that running in PAE would slow down some processes. By the way, I know 64 bits would solve this dilemn but right now I am 32bits... Thx, JD

IP6 Anyone?
by Always Learning 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Today I received an allocation of IP6 addresses for some servers. I can 'play' with the last 2 of the 8 IP6 address segments. I always thought, mistakenly, IP6 was 6 segments, because it was IP6. IP4 had 4 segments. However IP6 is actually IP version 6 and it has 8 segments. The other interesting discovers are: :: means one or more 0 segments, example :: can mean 0:0:0: or just 0:0: or even 0:0:0:0: and, a real smile making favourite, is IP6 breaks Micro$oft's set-up. Micro$oft can not handle actual IP6 addresses because : is forbidden by Micro$oft in its 'Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) path names'. Naturally Micro%oft has invented a 'work around' solution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address#Literal_IPv6_addresses_in_UNC_pat… Because : is sometimes used in an address to indicate the start of a port number, example http://www.anyonejunk.com:1234, the IP6 address can be enclosed within [ ] with the port number remaining outside the square brackets. How will IP6 affect the software in Centos and what gradual changes should one make on the transition to a major Internet change with the ending of NAT for IP4 addresses and a more secure (IPsec) end to end transmission protocol? -- With best regards, Paul.

CentOS MD RAID 1 on Openfiler iSCSI
by Emmanuel Noobadmin 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

Has anybody tried or knows if it is possible to create a MD RAID1 device using networked iSCSI devices like those created using OpenFiler? The idea I'm thinking of here is to use two OpenFiler servers with physical drives in RAID 1, to create iSCSI virtual devices and run CentOS guest VMs off the MD RAID 1 device. Since theoretically, this setup would survive both a single physical drive failure as well as a machine failure on the storage side with a much shorter failover time than say using heartbeat. Or is this yet another stupid idea again from me? :D

Alternative to cPanel
by Trutwin, Joshua 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

Hello all, I'm looking to setup a new CentOS box for a buddy of mine who wants to do hosting on a server via CoLo, Years ago I whipped up a CP of my own on a Debian box he colo'd running a basterdized qmail/tinydns and custom built httpd/mysql/etc (I was young). It worked ok but time to move on and I don't have time to maintain all those packages. I also don't have time to write another CP or port my PoS to it. I'm also just going to use the default packages (bind, postfix, etc) instead of the DJB stuff. Main requirements are fairly straightforward: 1. able to add/manage domains, ssl cert management, manage DNS records 2. able to manage email accounts and anti-spam settings 3. able to add/manage mysql and pgsql (nice to have) 4. user management - ftp/ssh accounts, password change, etc. 5. nice to have: add a wordpress blog / xcart store to a site 6. nice to have: users have own login to do some of the above for their domain only 7. nice to have: integrated website stats (awstats or equiv) 8. not optional - should have a focus on security Stuff like viewing logs, automated billing, hosting plans, managing backups, bandwidth monitoring, uploading web pages, managing server patches, adding new software, etc. I don't mind leaving off or doing myself. Willing to pay a license, but not a huge budget. I was leaning towards webmin/virtualmin but thought I'd check with this list for any suggestions. Had bad experiences with Plesk from a while ago so leaving that off the table. We have experience with cPanel through another fail host, it's ok but too much stuff and too expensive. Josh

Dhcp 3.0.5 on 5.x
by Jason Pyeron 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

I am looking to use the update-conflict-detection false; directive in the dhcpd.conf. It is supported in EL6 or and dhcp >=3.1.0a1. Since I am not going to get permission to switch to EL6 or dhcp 3.1 what are my options? Background: I have a DNS/DHCPD system which its conf files are generated automagically. Depending on which network a device is on the ip address will change. It is always required to have an A record for every device. I see my only 2 possible options to be: 1, trick dhcpd into thinking that the records in dns are its, hence updatable. 2, backport the update-conflict-detection false logic into dhcp-3.0.5-23.el5_5.2 Any suggestions?

cronjob to intiiate checkdisk ?
by Roland RoLaNd 28 Feb '11

28 Feb '11

Dear all, I'm trying to find a way to automate checkdisk every 1 month on a weekend. in other words i want checkdisk to run every saturday morning. i can of course change the default mount/count though that wont let me control WHEN it will happen. so i need your expert opinion with the following if possible: 1. reboot into single user mode 2. start checkdisk for all disks 3. once done, reboot into runlevel 3 i've did a certain script that force checkdisk at night if there's a bad sector using the badblocks command though that's not enough. PS: i was thinking of something of this sort: 1 4 * sat /bin/touch /forcefsck;reboot 1 1 * sun rm /forcefsck Would the above work? for all disks?

Don't know. Grace was occasionally mentioned in the computer press for getting awards in the USA (I think she was in the USA Navy) but we programmers, new to a new world of computing, just wrote programmes, debugged them, did some systems analysis and ventured into assembler coding and system programming. Grace never ever influenced me or anyone else I knew who did Cobol. She was just a name to the majority who programmed in Cobol. I used to think it took someone 2 years of writing in Cobol to become efficient in using it and visualising solutions which could be implemented in it. Well written Cobol was easy to maintain but some clowns never properly used the self documenting features of the language (i.e. meaningful data names - contrast with add csum to itotal). The alternative was longer data names, for example inv-gross-total, inv-delivery-cost and overdue-3-mths-total etc. Many programmed in Cobol but fewer used the language to its designed extent. The worse thing about Cobol was the long windiness of it before one came to the Procedure Division. Later on Picture became Pic and very useful string handling was introduced (the alternative was refining the same field multiple times). It used to be my favourite language, after Easycoder and 6502 assembler, then I discovered PHP. -- With best regards, Paul. England, EU.

Logwatch reporting spamassassin messages as unmatched entries

I was actually wrong. I can 'play' with not 2 but 4 groups of the IP6 allocation. Golly, what can I do with 64 x 64 x 64 x 64 address combinations? Hire then out? Have a different IP6 address for every hour of the year? Put the IP4 address in the last 4 groups? (2001::10.2.2.191) That vast surplus of IP6 addresses is just for one server - I have several. -- With best regards, Paul. England, EU.

Centos Project : STEM

On https://projects.centos.org/trac/stem/ there is a brief mention of Stem and VOIP with a request for dial-in numbers. However there are no links on the page describing STEM. Stem sounds a bit like the Dutch word for 'voice'. What type of dialing-in, from the PSTN, numbers are required and how can they be used to benefit Centos? -- With best regards, Paul. England, EU.
