Apache server-status file not found
by Tim Dunphy 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Hi All, I tried enabling server-status on this one server. I used the same server-status definition that we normally do around here. It usually works. But this time it isn't. What happens is that when I do a GET on server-status and the IP, it results in a file not found error. [root@224432-27 apache2]# GET http://$(hostname -i)/server-status <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>404 Not Found</title> </head><body> <h1>Not Found</h1> <p>The requested URL /server-status was not found on this server.</p> </body></html> Yet in the main apache httpd.conf file I have the following: ExtendedStatus On #Mod_status config <Location /server-status> SetHandler server-status Order allow,deny Allow from all </Location> I'm planning on tightening this up with allowing only from certain IPs once I get this working. But does anyone have any idea why this could be failing? Thanks Tim -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B

CentOS 6.6 Bacula-SELinux issue
by Paul Heinlein 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

I updated my backup server to CentOS 6.6 this morning. As usual, I unmounted the current (nightly) tape from the changer before the reboot. Now Bacula complains it cannot access the changer: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command. 3991 Bad autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command: ERR=Child exited with code 1. Results=cannot open SCSI device '/dev/changer' - Permission denied SELinux is denying source context bacula_t from accessing target context tape_device_t. I took a look at the various SELinux boolean values but see none that applies. Has anyone else observed this symptom since upgrading? Is there a fix other than building a local policy by going through the "ausearch | audit2allow" iteration(s)? -- Paul Heinlein heinlein(a)madboa.com 45°38' N, 122°6' W

strange disk space calculation ext4 df and du
by Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Hi, in one server I do have a SSD raid 1 size 219GB. df shows 9.4 GB free, 198GB used. If I do "du -sch * | sort -h -r" on /, I just have close to 3.5GB used .... Any hints, what's eating up the space? Centos 6.6, fs = ext4. regards .

Dell Dimension 2400 W/Intel 845-G Video
by Mark LaPierre 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Hey Y'all, I've been Googeling and experimenting for two days trying to find a way to deal with the Intel 845-G video chipset in this Dell Dimension 2400. First, it doesn't have a DVD drive so I have to install from a CD. When I try to boot into the Live CD I get a video error something like, Undefined video mode number: 317. It hangs at the splash screen. I was able to make a minimal install with the Minimal Install CD. I used yum to update and then install the desktop and X server. I managed to get it to bring up the desktop by adding nomodeset to the grub command line and by using the vesa driver but I can only get 640x480 resolution and the image is offset on the screen to the left and down. I tried a netinstall. It was looking good but the video bug crashed that too. I just swapped out the CD drive with another known good drive. Still no joy. I wasn't expecting that to make a difference so I wasn't disappointed when it didn't. There's a lot a cruft on the internet about problems with the Intel 845-G chipset but no solutions that work for me. Does anyone know how to get an successful installation on this hardware? -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

Centos7 Annoyances
by david 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Folks I'm sure the Centos team has done a yeoman's job getting Centos7 ready, and that the Redhat team has done marvels in creating rhel7, but here's a little voice from a personal hobbyist user. Background: ('ve been maintaining several remote servers since Redhat 6 days, migrating from that to Whitebox, then Centos, and things have been running as expected including the current version of Centos6. As an experiment, I've tried to play with Centos7 on an in-house virtual machine (VMWare on Win7), and have encountered a collection of annoyances greater than I've even seen. Below is a note about them. If someone has some elegant solution, I'd love to try, but Centos7 is still unusable for me. 1: Firewall changes The change in firewall technology forced a complete re-do of my scripts which maintain firewalls, respond to attacks, etc. I think I've programmed my way around the issues, but it wasn't easy. 2: Apache changes These were subtle, but again were solved. 3: Service -> systemd The change from object-oriented view of service: (service httpd restart) to function-oriented (systemctl restart firewall) seems to be unnecessary, and counter to the way stuff is generally done in the modern world. Nonetheless, it was possible to solve that with some adaptive script programming. 4) Something with Unknown lvalue 'ControlGroup' in section 'Service' I don't know what to do with this. I constantly get the diagnostic: [/usr/lib/systemd/system/rtkit-daemon.service:32] Unknown lvalue 'ControlGroup' in section 'Service' and attempts to browse the internet for solutions come across barriers that require some paid subscription to view. This is currently a progress-stopper. The messages I see deal with boinc, which does not show up on my system using "rpm -qa | grep -i boinc". 5) Sendmail is out, postfix is in. This is a huge change, since I had lots of scripts that tailored the Sendmail system for spam protection, dealing with SmartHosts that required SMTP-AUTH and others required weird configurations, etc. Whether this is working yet I don't quite know, but it seems the scripts can accommodate the change. 6) Installation I have no idea why, when using the net-install, one must explicitly turn on the network. It seems unnecessary. 7) Lack of 32-bit support I think I understand this. After all, 32-bit machines may become "unusable" when the clock overflows, but isn't that a few years away, and couldn't some solution be found, even if kludgy? Some of the 32-bit hardware was of very high quality, and still runs perfectly. I'd hate to spend a few hundred dollars each to replace all those systems. 8) And more ... I haven't got a server or desktop running to my satisfaction yet, so I don't yet know what pitfalls await. Any advice would be appreciated. David in San Francisco

I do not think it wise to have remi enabled by default. But, neither do I think it necessary to remove the repo altogether. Turning it off by default should suffice. Then remove whatever packages are causing causing the conflict as is suggested. The remi.repo need not be enabled to effect removals. Then try your update with remi out of the picture. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
