An examples of commands run might be: $ ruby my-app.rb $ gem install activeresource $ bundle In order to view the individual components included in this collection, including additional rubygems plugins, you can run: $ sudo yum list rh-ruby22\* rh-ror41\* The rh-ror41 collection relies on the rh-ruby22 collection and the ror40 collection relies on the ruby200 collection, so the Ruby collections will be also installed when the Ruby on Rails collection is installed. About Software Collections -------------------------- Software Collections give you the power to build, install, and use multiple versions of software on the same system, without affecting system-wide installed packages. Each collection is delivered as a group of RPMs, with the grouping being done using the name of the collection as a prefix of all packages that are part of the software collection. The collection rh-ruby22 delivers bundler and Ruby interpreter in version 2.2, while the collection rh-ror41 delivers Ruby on Rails framework in version 4.1 that allows to create and run applications in Ruby or Ruby on Rails framework. The collection ruby200 delivers only the Ruby interpreter in version 2.0.0, while the ror40 collection delivers Ruby on Rails framework in versoin 4.0 and bundler. The collection ruby193 delivers Ruby interpreter in version 1.9.3, bundler and Ruby on Rails framework in version 3.2. Some of the most common rubygems are also included in the collections as RPMs, the rest may be installed using bundler or gem tools. For more on the Ruby and Ruby on Rails, see https://www.ruby-lang.org, http://rubyonrails.org or https://rubygems.org.

MariaDB 10.X Master-Slave Replication
by melkor.kp 13 Nov '15

13 Nov '15

Hi, I am configuring master-slave replication in a MariaDB 10.X over Centos 7.1 and I am having some troubles. When I configure the slave I use the following directies in my.cnf: ... master-host = 192.168.122.2 master-user = slave_user master-password = qwerty master-connect-retry = 60 ... But is seems that the daemon doesn't like them and it refuses to start. Does anybody know if those directives have been removed on that version? Setting up them with the following mysql commands inside works. mysql> slave stop; mysql> CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='*192.168.122.2*', MASTER_USER='*slave_user*', MASTER_PASSWORD='*qwerty*', MASTER_LOG_FILE='*mysql-bin.000003*', MASTER_LOG_POS=*11128001*; mysql> slave start; mysql> show slave status\G; Cheers, Roberto Nebot -- It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door.

Shorewall and the latest kernel problem

I just installed the latest kernel 2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.x86_64 and when I rebooted it shorewall (shorewall-4.5.4-1.el6.noarch) failed with the following error ERROR: a non-empty masq file requires NAT in your kernel and iptables /etc/shorewall/masq (line 15) Question is is this a problem in the kernel or is it a problem in Shorewall? Booting the previous kernel allowed shorewall to start normally. Any one else seen this error, if so what's the fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [CentOS] Rsync and differential Backups
by Ole Holm Nielsen 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

Alessandro Baggi <alessandro.baggi(a)gmail.com> wrote: > how to perform a differential backup using rsync? > > On web there is a great confusion about diff backup concept when > searched with rsync. I think the answer to this question is Rsnapshot, which is an old and well proven tool: http://rsnapshot.org/. To quote the homepage: > rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync. rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines, and remote machines over ssh. The code makes extensive use of hard links whenever possible, to greatly reduce the disk space required. It's very easy to set up Rsnapshot with a simple configuration file. You can define hourly, daily, weekly and monthly backups. You run Rsnapshot from crontab and it's all automatic. We run Rsnapshot on the backup server which NFS-mounts the source file system as read-only (NFS read operations are low overhead). You may also use SSH. The backup server has XFS filesystems with the inode64 mount option (no inode problems :-). Our backup filesystems varies from 1-40 TB in size with 100k to 25M inodes. For very large source filesystems you may want to use 10 Gbit/s links to speed up the backups. The only issue I see is with source filesystems containing tens of millions of files, since new inodes have to be allocated on the backup server to "snapshot" a filesystem. The time for Rsnapshot to do "snapshots" can become substantial, depending on the speed of the underlying filesystem. -- Ole Holm Nielsen Department of Physics, Technical University of Denmark,

CentOS7 and "ip link alias"
by Mike - st257 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

Hello List, After demystifying the cause for my /sbin/ifup-local not being executed by network scripts for an Ethernet interface (don't let NetworkManager control it or ifup-local won't be executed)... ... I have a question with hopefully a simple answer: I placed an alias/description on my interface during testing and now I want to remove it. But when I try to remove it, I'm either trying to do something _actually_ not supported or I don't have the proper syntax to accomplish what I want. ~]# ip link set dev eno1 alias "hit" ~]# ip link show eno1 2: eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:22:19:1e:a2:5b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff alias hit ~]# ip link delete dev eno1 alias "hit" RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported Thoughts? It's mildly annoying at most. -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 //

librhythmbox-itms-detection-plugin.so
by Alice Wonder 08 Nov '15

08 Nov '15

I'm looking at ways to potentially reduce tracking via browser fingerprints. https://panopticlick.eff.org/ When I go to that url in CentOS FireFox - my browser is very distinct. For me I believe this is largely caused by gstreamer. I run a modern gstreamer, not the CentOS packages gstreamer. My modern gstreamer also includes a lot of the patent-encumbered codecs, and on that eff project page, I can see them being reported by the GStreamer plugin as supported, making my firefox very unique and subject to tracking via browser fingerprint. I'm not sure there is anything I can do about that, other than going back to stock gstreamer which I can't do because I need gstreamer support for some codecs not supported by stock CentOS gstreamer. I think for anything that is a plugin, I think the browser should ask the user. That would make browser fingerprinting more difficult. One of the plugins though that is detected is from rhythmbox. I didn't even know there was a rhytmbox plugin for firefox. /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/librhythmbox-itms-detection-plugin.so It is part of the core rhythmbox package. I certainly have no need for it, and I doubt very many people do. It seems to me that maybe that plugin should be part of a sub-package to rhythmbox rather than rhythmbox itself, strictly from a security perspective so that if there is an exploitable bug in it, it will only be a vector for those who actually want that plugin. Does anyone actually use that plugin for anything? Maybe it should just be removed from the Fedora / RHEL / CentOS world.

safest way to grow a LV under VMware ESXi5.5

Hello all, In your view, what is the most reliable and safe way to increase an LV housing the root filesystem of a Centos 6 VM. I am thinking either growing the virtual HD virtual device, or creating a new device and adding it as a PV to the VM, or perhaps migrating the whole FS to a new virtual disk. Any input on how best to proceed would be appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

I would like to ask you for some documentation about libraries directories layout regarding c/c++ programing. Im not interested in the languaje it self but how to prepare my server to succesfully compile c/c++ programas. I hope someone can help my on this. Regards, Leo.

Centos 7, ATI card, 30" monitor

Well, I got my user back to being able to use his system, but I've still got one issue: it's running on the VESA driver - there is *no* Catalyst build for this monitor, for CentOS 7. From a lot of googling, nothing's been done since the summer of '14 (lspci reports it as a FirePro V3900). Any thoughts, or pointers, as to if/how I can get X - he's running KDE - to see the full width of the monitor, not just about 4" less, or is that not possible with the VESA driver? mark

synthesizing yum transactions
by Brian Reichert 05 Nov '15

05 Nov '15

Ok, I'm trying way too hard to shovel myself out of a hole. We have a bunch of remote CentOS 6 servers, that were configured with kickstart. They've subsequently had additional RPMs installed/updated via the 'rpm' utility. We have reason to occasionally rewind the state of the server back to it's original set of RPMs. Of late, we've found that 'yum' handles this scenario quite nicely, IFF (if and only if) that all RPM changes were handled via the 'yum' utility itself, such that yum can manage a list of transactions. In this case 'yum history rollback 1' does exactly what we need. My problem is that we did not exclusively use 'yum' to do this work, and even though there are newer RPMs in place, yum only knows about transaction ID 1, from the initial kickstart installation. Hence, it thinks there's nothing to rollback from. So, given the knowledge of what RPMs are currently installed, is there a way to invent a new transaction incorporating them, without reinstalling the RPMs in question? I feel I've come close, with this methodology, basically coercing yum to rebuild a database in a private directory: # installroot for yum workdir=/home/yum-hack rm -rf ${workdir} mkdir -p ${workdir} cd ${workdir} # list of newer RPMs (after transaction ID 1) new=new_rpms # dup repos and rpm/yum databases for tree in /var/lib/rpm/ /var/cache/yum/ /var/lib/yum/ /etc/yum.repos.d/; do echo ${tree} mkdir -p ./${tree} cp -pr ${tree}/* ./${tree} done cat new_rpm | xargs /usr/bin/yum -y --nogpgcheck --installroot=${workdir} \ --setopt=tsflags=noscripts reinstall On the surface, this seems to work, in that I now can see a transaction list: yum --installroot=/home/yum-hack history list all But, any effort to rollback to tid 1 yields: Transaction history is incomplete, before 5. You can use 'history rollback force', to try anyway. Error: Failed history rollback, incomplete So, I've clearly tricked myself. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I _should_ retroactively invent an additional yum transaction? This there some state I failed to introduce into the the above private directory? I've only begun to dive into the yum source to try to track down what triggers this error, but if anyone has some immediate knowledge, or suggestion for a better forum where I can ask this question? Some details of my environment, if that's helpful: [root@172-20-245-145 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.5 (Final) [root@172-20-245-145 ~]# rpm -q yum rpm yum-3.2.29-69.el6.centos.noarch rpm-4.8.0-37.el6.x86_64 Thanks for any advice... -- Brian Reichert <reichert(a)numachi.com> BSD admin/developer at large

CentOS 7, new video card in server
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 05 Nov '15

05 Nov '15

Hi, folks, I've got a new Dell R730 server. My users have two Tesla K-80's in it. Then, they wanted to add video, for complicated reasons. Anyway, there's the onboard VGA; I just put in a Quadro K600 (they require DP, and this card offers that). Plug in a VGA monirot (the card even comes with two adaptors, one from large DP to DVI-D, and one DVI-D to VGA. (And according to the quick start guide, there's no additional power cable.) Boot the system, and no video on from the card. In the BIOS, the only thing I see that appears to relate is enable/disable onboard video. I'm looking at that as a last option, since I have no idea how I'd *undo* it, if I then have zero video.... Dell, of course, doesn't support ordinary video cards in a server.... So, anyone have clues, or pointers, to getting video coming out of the new card? Now, I have no issues with putting the proprietary NVidia driver on, but I'm trying to figure out if I'm missing something. Note that, as a server, of course, it is coming up in runlevel 3. mark

HTML5 to SQL under CentOS
by Timothy Murphy 05 Nov '15

05 Nov '15

Several years ago I wrote a simple, short, HTML/PHP program on my CentOS server for adding items to a MySQL/MariaDB database on the server from my Fedora laptop. Recently I thought I would try to be up-to-date and re-write the program using HTML5 Forms, which seemed the proper thing to do, but I'm finding this surprisingly difficult. Does anyone have, or can point me to, a simple HTML5 program (preferably not using Java or PHP) for this task ? I've already found that Firefox, the browser I normally use on my laptop, surprisingly (to me) does not support the HTML Forms date item, or at least does not have a date picker to go with it. So it seems I would have to use Chrome on my laptop, which is annoying but not fatal. Also it seems that CentOS does not support WebSQL. Is there an alternative that serves the same purpose. Any suggestions or advice gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Changing the centos name on boot
by Ramaseshan S 05 Nov '15

05 Nov '15

I have been playing around with customizing the centos to create a spin for my workplace. I am using centos 6.6 minimal, and trying to change the centos name to some random string. I have been able to change the name in the grub using grub.conf, but the name while the system is booting, I am not able to find a reference to that. Can somebody help me with that ? Attached screenshot. Anyhelp with what to search for or some blogs and direct answers would help :-) -- Cheers -- S.Ramaseshan Engineer fractalio.com
