Turning off wifi in CentOS 7
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 20 May '15

20 May '15

Someone else got the 7 pxe install going, and one thing that's annoying is that NetworkMangler appears to be regularly trying to fire up the wifi. On a workstation, in a wired environment. I just want to tell NM to knock it off....It's Monday, and my searching isn't going too well. Clues for the poor? mark

Upgrading to CentOS 7
by Timothy Murphy 19 May '15

19 May '15

I read in <http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/CentOSUpgradeTool> "Warning: use of this tool is currently not recommended as several system- critical packages are of a higher version number in CentOS 6.6 than they are in CentOS 7 so those do not get upgraded correctly. This renders yum and several other system tools non-functional." Does this still hold? It seems to me a bit pointless to offer a tool with the warning that it does not work. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

With 6.x and 7, "mail" is symlinked to mailx, which doesn't seem to have the "--" flag and the ability to pass the sendmail options. In both mail and mailx, a bare "-f" is a read from file.

Constant screen flicker with Firefox browser
by László Csontos 19 May '15

19 May '15

Hi Guys, I'm facing this issue: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8482 It came after upgrading to 7.1 and only Firefox is affected, Chrome is working. What I've tried so far: - Tried NVIDIA drivers 340.65, 346.59 and 346.72 - Upgraded Firefox to 38 - Tried Safe more / Refresh Firefox - Tried to turn HW accel. off in Firefox None of these has helped to eliminate the issue. Do you know how to work this around? Many thanks, László

Missing Java packages for java-1.6.0-openjdk under CentOS 5
by Robert Heller 18 May '15

18 May '15

When I compile some Java code I am getting this sort of error: "package org.apache.http.annotation does not exist" I am presuming that I am missing a Jar file in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64. Most of the Jar files in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 come from one or another RPMs, most from the CentOS 5 distro RPMs. But I cannot figure out which RPM(s) I am missing. I tried doing a web search for org.apache.http.annotation with el5 and rpm, but got nothing useful. What am I missing? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services

Centos 7 Network Question
by david 16 May '15

16 May '15

I have a question about the network and Centos 7 I am experimenting with two C7 installations: - On relatively new hardware, configured with fixed IP address in IPV4 only - on top of Windows, using VMWare, sharing my windows connection via Vmware's bridge with IPV4 only. On both configurations, I run a script every five minutes to test the network. The sequence is as follows: - Find the default interface using "ip route" - Find that interface's IP address by scanning the output of "ip route" for a match in interface. If the above tests fail to resolve, I issue "systemctl restart network", and post a mail message to myself. When this happens, the network does indeed come back correctly. I do the same sequence on Centos 6 installations, (using "system network restart"). I find that on Centos 6, I almost never get notified that the restart occurred (except when there's a real reason). On Centos 7, however, I find that about once a day or so, I get notified, even though there's nothing that has changed. On Centos 6, I left the avahi daemon running. On Centos 7, I disabled avahi (because with it enabled, I was getting this failure once every few hours). Are there any clues in the above? On C7, the "messages" log has nothing that I can associate with the failure. David
