Logwatch inconsistency
by Adrian van Bloois 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

Hi all, In my logwatch config I clearly state only too report on Yesterday. The funny thing is that in the MailScanner section the number of mails scanned is different thant th number reported in the postfix section to be put on hold. Ik I grep the Requeue statements in the MailScanner logfile this is exactly the same number as the scan result of Hold in the postfix logfile and is equal to the number reported by logwatch in the MailScanner section. How come postfix reports a lot more being put on hold than the real number? There is at least some inconsistency in there.

Firefox 60 crashes when trying to save an image
by Robert Nichols 18 Jul '18

18 Jul '18

On any web page with an image, if i right-click on the image and select "Save Image As...", firefox crashes. Final messages from stderr: (firefox:3401): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system [Child 3502, Chrome_ChildThread] WARNING: pipe error (3): Connection reset by peer: file /builddir/build/BUILD/firefox-60.1.0/ipc/chromium/src/chrome/common/ipc_channel_posix.cc, line 353 Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) I've reported this on RHEL bugzilla (1601254), but on the off chance that this is a problem with the CentOS build I'm posting here as well. This is firefox-60.1.0-5.el6.centos.x86_64 on CentOS 6.10. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

Panic with EL7 KVM guest on EL6 host on AMD server with latest kernel
by Simon Matter 18 Jul '18

18 Jul '18

Hi, I have AMD servers running CentOS 6.10 as KVM host and on it guests running CentOS 7.5. Since the latest kernel update on CentOS 6.10, kernel-2.6.32-754.2.1.el6.x86_64, I can't boot the CentOS 7.5 guests with kernel-3.10.0-862.6.3.el7.x86_64 anymore. Reverting CentOS 6.10 host to kernel-2.6.32-754.el6.x86_64 fixes the problem. Screendump of the panic is attached, not very helpful I guess. The CPU models where I could test it are: cpu family : 15 model : 65 model name : Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2218 stepping : 3 cpu family : 16 model : 6 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) II Neo N36L Dual-Core Processor stepping : 3 Didn't test on newer CPU family yet. I'm wondering, does someone see the same issue? Does it not happen on Intel CPUs? Thanks for any insight. Regards, Simon

Clamd issues on Centos 6.10
by Jay Hart 17 Jul '18

17 Jul '18

Hello all, Been having an issue today that I can't seem to solve, so reaching out to others much more knowledgeable for help/advice/assistance. I ran the software update this morning and installed 134 packages, clamd was one of the packages. Upon completion of the update, I needed to reboot the box. During bootup I got the following issue: Starting Clam AntiVirus Daemon: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option AllowSupplementaryGroups at line 194 LibClamAV Error: cli_cvdload: Corrupted CVD header LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd: Malformed database LibClamAV Error: cli_loaddbdir(): error loading database /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd Sat Jul 14 09:04:46 2018 -> !Malformed database [FAILED] Clamd failed to start. I modified the clamd.conf conf file to comment out the deprecated option above, this seemed to allow clamd to start following a second reboot. I followed some suggested actions from the clamd.net site, namely I ensured my DNS was still working, that I could reach clamd.net, and also removed the mirrors.dat and main.cvd files in an effort to get clamd to update via freshclam. When I run 'freshclam -v' I get the following data return: [root@centos clamav]# freshclam -v Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav Max retries == 3 ClamAV update process started at Sat Jul 14 15:09:47 2018 Using IPv6 aware code Querying current.cvd.clamav.net TTL: 1611 Software version from DNS: 0.100.1 WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!

I tried deleting the mirrors,dat file and re-running freshclam (did not reboot the box between file deletion and command line execution), no effect... Also, I have the default mirror location in freshclam.conf, which seems to be fine considering its been like this for years. I tried to locate the 'country code' paramater but gave that up after I got a headache looking over the documentation. I don't think its relevant to this issue anyway. I'm stuck on how to fix this. Nothing on the web shows what resolution is, nor how to fix it. Seems like I can get and receive emails, but I have no idea if they are being properly scanned. Thanks in advance, Jay
