[Fwd: The CentOS list]
by Valeri Galtsev 15 Mar '17

15 Mar '17

Dear All, Mark has problem sending mail to centos(a)centos.org list... He has trouble with flash plugin on CentOS 6, please, take a look at his e-mail below. I'll try to see what I can do to help, but what I can do definitely is no match to Experts on this list. Thanks in advance! Valeri ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: The CentOS list From: m.roth(a)5-cent.us Date: Mon, January 30, 2017 3:11 pm To: "Valeri Galtsev" <galtsev(a)kicp.uchicago.edu> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Valeri, I've tried, twice, to post to the list today, and they neither show up, *nor* do I get a blocked message - they just go to /dev/null. The second was just a test, the first was asking if anyone else was seeing, with CentOS 6 (updated) flash-plugin crashing every 10-15 min. And there's no downgrade for it. mark ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Valeri Galtsev Sr System Administrator Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics University of Chicago Phone: 773-702-4247 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

kernel 2.6.32-642.15.1.el6.x86_6
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 15 Mar '17

Folks, There's some kind of bug here, esp. with this kernel. We've got a cron yum update, and it fails, repeatably, un multiple machines. We reboot to the previous kernel, it comes up, we do a reinstall of the kernel modules, and everything's fine. I was thinking it was with yum, but the admin I work with says it happened today on some with no exlude=kernel\* in yum.conf. My manager's thinking that the initramfs isn't being rebuilt. Have other folks seen this? Not sure if the other admin's tested it on one of our upstream boxen. mark

How do I confirm importing repo key without user intervention?
by Yuri Kanivetsky 15 Mar '17

15 Mar '17

Hi, Sorry for asking it again. I just thought I asked the question the wrong way. Too much unnecessary details. And therefore, got no replies. I'm configuring a server from, say, a script (automatically). I need it to be done without user saying, "Yes, it's okay to import the key." I was told to run the following command: yum makecache -y --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=passenger Can you confirm if this is okay? Any better ways? Thanks in advance. Regards, Yuri

httpd/sites-available directory
by Robert Moskowitz 14 Mar '17

I just received some advice from a colleague of a colleague over at openssl.org. But they use debian. Please look at this and help me out on how Centos7 handles this: Note the comment of the location of virtualhost config files. Centos7 does not have a "man a2ensite". thanks Rewriterules and https. Actually, looking at what you have doesn't really tell me why it gets applied to everything and not just the webmail. However, I'd say that your roundcubemail.conf is much overworked. We use something like that on openssl.org, but it generally looks like this: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost ServerName ${HOSTNAME} ServerAlias ${HOSTALIASES} Redirect permanent /https://${HOSTNAME}/ </VirtualHost> Since you already know that the host is correct and that's the port 80 virtualhost, there's no point testing that with those RewriteCond you have. Also, Redirect is faster and preferable to RewriteRule for this kind of stuff, seehttps://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/avoid.html Also, specifically for virtualhost config files, they should be located in sites-available/ rather than conf.d/, see 'man a2ensite'. conf.d/ is older style configuration of general stuff... or well, that's at least true for Debian, I'm not sure this is specific for Debian distributions and their derivates or if it's a native Apache thing. You'll have to check the manuals to confirm.

Processing Conflict: speexdsp-1.2-0.9.rc3.el6.x86_64
by James B. Byrne 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Processing Conflict: speexdsp-1.2-0.9.rc3.el6.x86_64 conflicts speex <= 1.2-0.21.rc1 I am loath to replace things on my primary workstation as I have far too much to do as it is without dealing with self-inflicted injuries. However, I do use Jitsi as a softphone and the latest version has a dependency on a package in EPEL which replaces something from the base distro. Can someone inform me of what issues, if any, would replacing speex with speexdsp likely cause? I have a lot of packages that depend upon speex. Installing speexdsp by itself seems to indicate that it is not considered an upgrade or replacement for speex. One just conflicts with the other. -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail Do NOT open attachments nor follow links sent by e-Mail James B.

Missing something else - pidgin-sipe
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

I installed pidgin-sipe, since my googling seemed to suggest it would give me connectivity with Lync. I now see the SIMPLE protocol... but not Office Communicator. What am I missing here? CentOS 7, updated. mark

systemd, oh my
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Ok, folks, I don't get this one at all. I've got a server that I just rebuilt last week, from C5 to C7. It used to export filesystems. Those were moved to another server, and NFS wasn't turned up when I built it. I just turned it down again. And yet, I see Mar 14 10:26:33 <servername> systemd: Job dev-disk-by\x2dlabel-export1.device/start timed out. Mar 14 10:26:33 <servername> systemd: Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by\x2dlabel-export1.device. Mar 14 10:26:33 <servername> systemd: Dependency failed for File System Check on /dev/disk/by-label/export1. Mar 14 10:26:33 <servername> systemd: Dependency failed for /export/1. Why is this running? The systems' been up for 10 days, and I didn't set up such a job. mark
