java-1.8.0-oracle
by Steve Clark 17 Mar '15

17 Mar '15

Hi List, I see that java-1.8 from Oracle is in RedHat but I don't find it in CentOS repos. "This update adds the java-1.8.0-oracle and related packages to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. (BZ#1138845)" Am I missing something? Thanks, Steve -- Stephen Clark *NetWolves Managed Services, LLC.* Director of Technology Phone: 813-579-3200 Fax: 813-882-0209 Email: steve.clark(a)netwolves.com http://www.netwolves.com

Apparent bug in logwatch's reporting of number of email by sendmail
by ken 17 Mar '15

17 Mar '15

# rpm -q sendmail logwatch sendmail-8.13.8-8.1.el5_7 logwatch-7.3-10.el5 One host sends just one email per day, the daily logwatch report. Here's /var/log/maillog entries from yesterday (hostnames are changed to make designations in this conversation more intuitive): Mar 12 04:02:18 srchost sendmail[27151]: t2C82Bjr027151: from=root, size=2485, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201503120802.t2C82Bjr027151(a)localhost.localdomain>, relay=root@localhost Mar 12 04:02:19 srchost sendmail[27383]: t2C82IiB027383: from=<root(a)localhost.localdomain>, size=2756, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201503120802.t2C82Bjr027151(a)localhost.localdomain>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=srchost [127.0.0.1] Mar 12 04:02:19 srchost sendmail[27151]: t2C82Bjr027151: to=recip@dest, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:08, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=32485, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (t2C82IiB027383 Message accepted for delivery) Mar 12 04:02:20 srchost sendmail[27385]: t2C82IiB027383: to=<recip(a)dest.com>, ctladdr=<root(a)localhost.localdomain> (0/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=122756, relay=dellap.mousecar.net. [192.168.0.26], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (t2C82Jh3016227 Message accepted for delivery) Mar 13 04:02:13 srchost sendmail[30541]: t2D82ATM030541: from=root, size=2589, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201503130802.t2D82ATM030541(a)localhost.localdomain>, relay=root@localhost These four lines describe the sending of just one email. (The loglevel for sendmail is set at 9, the default.) I don't know why, but logwatch reports that two emails were sent yesterday. Could it be because there are two distinct msgids? Here's the relevant section of the logwatch report: --------------------- sendmail Begin ------------------------ STATISTICS ---------- Bytes Transferred: 5241 Messages Processed: 2 Addressed Recipients: 2 ---------------------- sendmail End ------------------------- I'd also like to know where/how logwatch is getting the number for "Bytes Transferred"; it doesn't seem to correspond to anything. So, unless I'm missing something, that's two problems. Does anyone see any others...? or have a plausible explanation for these inconsistencies? tia.

CentOS 7 installer not seeing SATA disks
by Wade Hampton 17 Mar '15

17 Mar '15

I am having trouble with the CentOS 7 installer recognizing SATA hard disks on a Core 2 motherboard. Yesterday I was installing CentOS 7 on a core 2 test computer (rather old machine). The computer had two SATA drives but the installer did not allow me to select them, even to repartition them. During install, I was able to manually run fdisk and sfdisk by accessing a multiscreen using ctrl-alt-F2, so the kernel did see the drives and the /dev entries were present. As a second test, I added a new solid state drive to replace one of the hard disks. The installer saw that drive and allowed me to install on it. Has anyone seen issues like this? Is there a simple workaround? Thanks, -- Wade Hampton

Anyone else running the above and seeing logstats enabled even though the configuration has it off? All my hosts running apcupsd generate an enormous amount of useless logging... Thanks, jlc

Realplayer audio/video plays fast & noisy on nVidia HDMI connected to HDTV
by M Hussein 17 Mar '15

17 Mar '15

Hello, This's my first ever post to CentOS lists. Sorry if I made any mistakes. My family is familiar with this RealPlayer Gold 11 and hesitate to use VLC or others. I googled a lot and tried different settings to no avail. Could you please tell me what I need to edit in order to slow down the audio/video playback of this old player? All other apps - even some older than Realplayer can play audio perfectly. The settings on this app offer none. The following is my ~/.config/real/realplayerrc [helix] EnableSuperbuffer=1 SuperBufferLength=300000 UseOverlay=0 OverlayMode=0 AlsaPCMDeviceName=hw:1,7 Bandwidth=2226048 CookiesPath=/home/kids/.config/real/rpcookies.txt UserSDKDataPath=/home/kids/.config/real Rotuma=dkcjchgiijfkfldmeoproukqorjrktluekegkidljgjkglplmsloqpoqqrksmtmugfggfhfi AutoTransport=1 SendStatistics=1 AttemptRTSPvMulticast=1 AttemptRTSPvUDP=1 AttemptRTSPvTCP=1 AttemptRTSPvHTTP=1 RTSPProxySupport=0 RTSPProxyHost= RTSPProxyPort=554 AttemptPNAvMulticast=1 AttemptPNAvUDP=1 AttemptPNAvTCP=1 AttemptPNAvHTTP=1 PNAProxySupport=0 PNAProxyHost= PNAProxyPort=1090 HTTPProxySupport=0 HTTPProxyHost= HTTPProxyPort=80 MaxBandwidth=10485800 EnableSuperbuffer=1 SuperBufferLength=300000 UseOverlay=0 OverlayMode=0 AlsaPCMDeviceName=hw:1,7 Bandwidth=2226048 CookiesPath=/home/kids/.config/real/rpcookies.txt UserSDKDataPath=/home/kids/.config/real Rotuma=dkcjchgiijfkfldmeoproukqorjrktluekegkidljgjkglplmsloqpoqqrksmtmugfggfhfi AutoTransport=1 SendStatistics=1 AttemptRTSPvMulticast=1 AttemptRTSPvUDP=1 AttemptRTSPvTCP=1 AttemptRTSPvHTTP=1 RTSPProxySupport=0 RTSPProxyHost= RTSPProxyPort=554 AttemptPNAvMulticast=1 AttemptPNAvUDP=1 AttemptPNAvTCP=1 AttemptPNAvHTTP=1 PNAProxySupport=0 PNAProxyHost= PNAProxyPort=1090 HTTPProxySupport=0 HTTPProxyHost= HTTPProxyPort=80 LiveSuperBuffer=1 rpregistered=1 TurboPlay=1 SoundDriver=3 AutoBWDetection=1 DisableMultiChannelPlayback=1 Quality=10 UseUDPPort=0 UDPPort=7070 NoProxyFor= PerfPlayEntireClip=0 BufferedPlayTime=10 CookiesEnabled=1 AllowAuthID=0 CacheEnabled=1 CacheMaxSize=4 ConnectionTimeOut=20 SynchMM=1 TrueLive=1 Alsa51PCMDeviceName=hdmi:CARD%3dNVidia,DEV%3d7 OSSPCMElementName=/dev/dsp OSSMixerElementName=/dev/mixer Language=en-us caption_switch=0 overdub_or_caption=none systemAudioDesc=0 UseSystemCPU=1 UseSystemOS=1 AlsaVaryingSampleRate=0 OpenAudioDeviceOnPlayback=0 [player] XPos=623 YPos=291 EnableRecentUrlsList=1 EnableUrlHurling=1 M3uUseRelative=0 MediaFilesPath= WebBrowserPath= LastBrowsedDirectory=/home/kids/Desktop/realplay DistCode=RXEN11LN OrigCode=RXEN11LN [recent_urls] [favorites] *My *aplay -l* is here:* [@GBINTEL bin]# aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC889A Analog [ALC889A Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC889A Digital [ALC889A Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 7: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 8: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:1,7 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 9: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [@GBINTEL bin]# aplay -L null Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture) pulse PulseAudio Sound Server upmix51 Upmixer channel expander surround51 Downmixer to stereo from surround51 surround40 Downmixer to stereo from surround40 default Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server) sysdefault:CARD=Intel HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog Default Audio Device front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog Front speakers surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog 4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog 5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog 7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC889A Digital IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=1 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=2 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=3 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output This is the only line that I changed in /etc/pulse/default.pa: load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:1,7 Best regards

Samba shares not appearing
by Niki Kovacs 16 Mar '15

16 Mar '15

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with Samba, trying to make it work on CentOS 7. Before that, I ran Samba successfully in a mixed environment with Slackware64 14.1 on the server and Slackware/Windows Seven on the client side. I have three sandbox machines running CentOS 7. One has a minimal install with only the samba and samba-client packages. Just to be on the safe side for fiddling, SELinux is disabled, there's no firewall, etc. I installed the 'samba' and 'samba-client' packages and edited a custom /etc/samba/smb.conf like this: # /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = Serveur de fichiers AMANDINE netbios name = AMANDINE dns proxy = yes domain master = yes log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 syslog = 2 bind interfaces only = yes interfaces = 192.168.2.0/24 localhost hosts allow = 192.168.2. 127. security = user passdb backend = tdbsam unix password sync = no invalid users = root encrypt passwords = yes guest account=smbguest map to guest = bad user force group = users create mode = 0660 directory mode = 0770 load printers = no printing = bsd printcap name = /dev/null disable spoolss = yes [Public] path = /srv/samba/public comment = Partage Public public = yes only guest = yes read only = no [Confidentiel] path = /srv/samba/confidentiel comment = Partage Confidentiel read only = no invalid users = root nobody smbguest Note: I explicitly disabled printing because Samba apparently refused to start, complaining about missing printers. And I did not forget to create a handful of Samba users (smbguest as well as normal users). On the server, I have this: # smbclient -L localhost -N Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.1.1] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- Public Disk Partage Public Confidentiel Disk Partage Confidentiel IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Serveur de fichiers AMANDINE) Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.1.1] Server Comment --------- ------- AMANDINE Serveur de fichiers AMANDINE NAS Workgroup Master --------- ------- WORKGROUP AMANDINE On the desktop clients (running CentOS 7 + GNOME), when I click on "Explorer le réseau" (I think it is "Browse Network" in english), I don't see any server appearing. The 'samba-client' package is installed on the clients. Now I'm a bit clueless. Any suggestions on what to try next?

rsyslog 5.8.10 crashing on centos 6.6 due to relp
by Mauricio Tavares 16 Mar '15

16 Mar '15

So I was having an issue with rsyslog in one of my centos 6.6 hosts: [root@scan ~]# /etc/init.d/rsyslog start Starting system logger: *** glibc detected *** /sbin/rsyslogd: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00007f80cc3da880 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x75e66)[0x7f80c9210e66] /usr/lib64/librelp.so.0(relpTcpDestruct+0x5f)[0x7f80c7f1a9bf] /usr/lib64/librelp.so.0(relpSrvRun+0x4c)[0x7f80c7f1d08c] /usr/lib64/librelp.so.0(relpEngineListnerConstructFinalize+0x26)[0x7f80c7f16ac6] /usr/lib64/librelp.so.0(relpEngineAddListner+0x91)[0x7f80c7f16c61] /lib64/rsyslog/imrelp.so(+0xd4c)[0x7f80c8122d4c] [...] 7fff6c305000-7fff6c31c000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7fff6c3ff000-7fff6c400000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall] ^C [root@scan ~]# Since this is the only machine I put relp in (I was playing with it), and all the others are working, I decided to remove rsyslog-relp-5.8.10-10.el6_6.x86_64 to see if that solves the issue. So, I yum remove rsyslog-relp and restarted rsyslog and it works now. Now that is fixed, what would cause rsyslog-relp to crash rsyslog?

CentOS 7 on Dell Inspiron with ATI Radeon HD 6320 video card
by Niki Kovacs 15 Mar '15

15 Mar '15

Hi, I'm currently installing CentOS 7 on a client's Dell Inspiron laptop. Here's the video card: # lspci | grep -i vga 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Wrestler [Radeon HD 6320] Most of the time, I either have to deal with Intel or NVidia graphic chipsets. As far as I understand, I can choose either the free 'radeon' driver or the proprietary 'fglrx' driver with this video card. I'm not too worried about performance, since this will essentially be a laptop for office productivity. On the other hand, I do worry about driver stability. I vaguely remember having seen freeze problems with these cards. Which driver should I use for a most stable setup?
