Filesystem gets corrupted after kernel upgrade to 2.6.32-431.5.1.el6
by Max Grobecker 16 Feb '14

16 Feb '14

Hi, I recently installed some fresh CentOS 6.5 machines and it took only about 20 minutes until the file system (ext4) was broken. And with "broken" I mean, that the system wasn't able to find vital system libraries any more! I were able to reproduce it on highly different systems: - A fresh installed CentOS 6.5 64 Bit on a virtual machine (KVM) - A system which I installed some weeks ago (also a KVM machine) and did a "yum update" which upgraded to kernel 2.6.32-431.5.1.el6. - A fresh installed CentOS 6.5 64 Bit on native hardware on a RAID 5 assembled with mdadm - A CentOS 6.4 system installed some months ago on native hardware with mdadm RAID 5 The last system wasn't able to boot after the upgrade and crashed with several kernel panics which I can show as a screenshot if there's any interest - but the display resolution was quite low so there are not many helpful information :-( Actually, I assume that there's anything broken with the new kernel or at least the kernel module for ext4 file system. You can reproduce it by just doing a "yum update" and rebooting the system. If it comes up, reboot it again and manually do an offline filesystem check - or just do some writing activities on the disks. Is it just me? I don't use any 3rd party repositorys and it blows my mind that no one else seems to notice...! Greetings from Wuppertal, Germany Max

Emacs and Ispell, Aspell and Hunspell
by Mark Plowman 15 Feb '14

15 Feb '14

CentOS members, This is another CentOS, Emacs upgrade question: Since upgrading from CentOS 5.10 and Emacs 21.4.1 to CentOS 6.5 and Emacs 23.1.1 I am trying to get a spell checker working in emacs. Previously I used aspell and everything "just worked". Now I gather that hunspell is the norm but after installing it, when I try it it "just doesn't work". If I try to (for instance) spell check a region (ispell-region) the session hangs and a "ps axfu" from another seesion reveals: mark 8464 0.0 1.2 313764 50252 ?

Emacs, Gnus, HTML emails and nbsp's...
by Mark Plowman 15 Feb '14

15 Feb '14

Is there an emacs guru amongst the CentOS bretheren who can help me with the following: Since upgrading from CentOS 5.10, Emacs 21.4.1 and Gnus v5.9.0 to CentOS 6.5, Emacs 23.1.1 and Gnus v5.13 HTML emails are now being renderd in a pretty reasonable way (thanks!), *but* non-breaking-spaces (nbsp's - UTF8 0xC2, 0xA0) and a few other "unusual" characters are always displayed (both in my graphical display and in terminals and PuTTY sessions) as octal bytes (e.g. \302\240) instead of being renderd as glyphs. Why? Is it to do with the locale? That says: $ locale LANG=en_US.utf8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8" LC_TIME="en_US.utf8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8" LC_PAPER=en_GB.UTF_8 LC_NAME="en_US.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8" LC_ALL= Something in Gnus. Something in emacs? Is it something else? If I make a file and insert UTF-8 characters using hexl-mode: C2 A0 0A C2 A3 0A I see the correct glyphs (nbsp (an underlined cell) and a pound sign) when I open the file in emacs. Some clue stick please... Greetings Mark -- If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple.

RSync Problem
by Joseph Hesse 14 Feb '14

14 Feb '14

I use an external USB drive and rsync to back up everything in /home. The USB drive has an entry in fstab and I mount it with "# mount /mnt" The rsync command I use is: rsync -av --delete --include='.thunderbird' --include='.filezilla' --include='.putty' \ --exclude='.*' --exclude='Desktop' --exclude='VirtualBox*' /home/* /mnt/home/ After I deleted one of the users on my system, including their home directory, I ran the rsync command. I found that the deleted user's home directory wasn't deleted from /mnt/home. I thought that the --delete option deleted everything on the destination that was not on the source. Please help. Thank you, Joe

OK all my HP Microserver is purring away nicely now, as usual I looking for the rainy day. Although my data is on a RAID 5 array my OS is on a single disk. Any suggestions as to the best way to have a copy of my OS on an attached USB Drive?

Centos 5.10, Firefox ESR 24.3.0, Rendering Failure
by Always Learning 14 Feb '14

14 Feb '14

Further to my very recent concerns that <ol type="a"> gives digits. type="a" was "depreciated" in HTML 4.1. "depreciated" means to me to be of a lesser value or to be prepared it may be abandoned. It does not, in my version of English English, mean removed from the HTML specification. Therefore it should function 'normally' in modern browsers like FF. HTML 5 has officially resurrected it. I now discover that <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha;"> also produces digits. Where should a BUG report be filled ? With Centos, the provider of Firefox ESR 24.3.0, or its parent Red Hat ?

MySQL Can't create file '/tmp/#sql2e0_98_0.frm' (errno: 9) problem
by Ljubomir Ljubojevic 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Hi. I have a strange problem. I installed cacti, and set it up. When I click on the Plugins Management, I noticed Error "FATAL: Database or Table does not exist" Further testing revealed that at the moment MySQL can not create temporary files in /tmp. It is same for ANY database! SELinux is disabled. I logged to mysql as root and error is same. Command used is: CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE IF NOT EXISTS plugin_temp_table LIKE bak_menu; Error is: ERROR 1004 (HY000): Can't create file '/tmp/#sql21f8_f3_0.frm' (errno: 9) What could be the problem, any idea how to proceed? I do not think I edited any MySQL setting. -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe StarOS, Mikrotik and CentOS/RHEL/Linux consultant
