Anyone ever gotten Solaris to install from a CentOS PXE server?
by Locane 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

I'm poking through Solaris documentation trying to figure out how to make it installable via our PXE server and, as with many things Solaris, I'm hitting walls of completely foreign procedures and setups. Has anyone managed to do this before? I'm trying to set Solaris 11.3 up.

The last time I did anything like this I ended up having to boot into recovery mode from an install cd and do this by hand. This is not an option in the present circumstance as the unit is a headless server in a remote location. If I do this: echo '-c' > /fsckoptions touch /forcefsck shutdown -r now Will this repair the bad block and bring the system back up? If not then what other options should I use? The bad block is located in an LV assigned to a libvirt pool associated with a single vm. Can this be checked and corrected without having to deal with the base system? If so then how?

SYSCALL problem in C7
by Fred Smith 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hi all! I know this isn't a devel list, but thought someone here may have a clue I could use... I have a fairly big application that runs on Centos 7 (and 6 and 5). Sometimes (not often, but too often) when running under the ddd debugger, while sitting stopped at a breakpoint, it will suddenly spew an apparent segfault in, as it says at the top of the source file, "Assembly code template for system call stubs". The specific place always looks like this: T_PSUEDO (SYSCALL_SYMBOL, SYSCALL_NAME, SYSCALL_NARGS) ret_ERRVAL T_PSEUDO_END_ERRVAL (SYSCALL_SYMBOL) the red error marker points to SYSCALL_NAME. I have no idea why its doing this, it never does it when not running in the debugger, as far as I can tell. and why it would croak in the debugger while sitting (apparently) idle at a breakpoint is beyond me. anyone here got a clue? thanks in advance! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." ------------------------------ Matthew 7:21 (niv) -----------------------------

upgrading Mysql 5.0.95
by Mark Weaver 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hi All, I'm getting things ready to upgrade my aging installation of MySQL 5.0.95 on my CentOS 5 LAMP server. With the impending EOL date of 3.31 fast approaching my sense of doom and urgency is increasing. I see that the necessary packages are available in @base and @updates - mysql51 and mysql55 respectively but from all the information I've read on the matter so far I'm left with a few questions I don't yet have answers to.' What I've done so far and thankfully was able recover from: 1. installed and enabled to epel repo - ran yum remove mysql - this command wanted to remove a few things I wanted to keep in place like dovecot and a few php53 packages. I didn't want to have to go back and clean up any messes that would create. So, I used the rpm -e --nodeps command to remove the MySQL packages. - because this was a redhat repo it installed the binaries in a total different place AND tossed all my existing data directories. and yes I spit coffee all over my laptop screen and yes, I did have data dir backups and a dump of MySQL data. HOLY CRAP! 2. removed the epel packages - disabled this repo - for ever at least for now... 3. reinstalled the old MySQL 5.0.95 packages - because I was hyper-ventilating - reset roots password - imported all the databases from the dump and checked my web apps - everything working again. - I did have to recreate the mysql.servers table to be able to flush privileges. I understand that mysql51 is available in @base for the sole purpose of upgrading old MySQL and mysql55 is in updates for getting to 5.5, however here is where things get a little fuzzy for me: Steps for Upgrading (as I understand them): 1. Take a dump of all mysql database using mysqldump --add-drop-database --all-databases 2. Stop mysql services 3. make a backup of data directories: /var/lib/mysql (but its not _supposed_ to remove the data directories.) 3. yum remove mysql mysql-server (again, it will include a few things I don't want removed. so, i'll have to use rpm -e --nodeps and list the packages for removal then issue yum clean all.' 4. yum install mysql51 5. start mysql service 6. run command mysql_upgrade... (here's where things start getting fuzzy) Question #1: is this command to be run from the commandline or should I log into mysql as root user and run the command? Question #2: at this point I will have mysql 5.1 installed and running but to get up to 5.5 am I expected to yum remove 5.1 and then yum install 5.5 from @updates and repeat steps 5 and 6 OR simply run the command yum update mysql51* to catch all already installed mysql51 packages to and then run the mysql_update command to bring data up to date with the current mysql install? THank you for your kind attention... -- Mark

Up to date guide/information Sendmail SMTP Auth
by Mark Weaver 19 Mar '17

19 Mar '17

Hello all, I've been googling my brains out since yesterday looking for up-to-date information on this matter, and have found information that is anywhere from 15 to 5 years old. I'd really like some information that much more up to date on the subject. Specifically configuring Sendmail SMTP authentication (_no smart host stuff_). I've got Sendmail 8.14 installed on a CentOS 7.3 server. Also installed: - Cyrus-sasl - Dovecot - Openssl Essentially everything I need except the working knowledge for the process. If someone knows where I might locate this information it would be greatly appreciated. thanks Mark
