Apache httpd-2.2.15 updates
by drsystems＠globalcerts.net 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Hello, I am working on a CentOS Linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 system. I noticed that the system came with httpd-2.2.15-6 installed. After I run 'yum update' I get httpd-2.2.15-9. I did some research on the Internet, but can't find the following information: are most of the security fixes that appear in httpd-2.2.21 applied to the update on httpd-2.2.15-9? There was a security fix just last August, the CVE-2011-3192 on Range and DoS. I don't imagine that this is in the 2.2.15-9. Do you have plans to provide this patch in the repository so that 'yum update httpd*' would get this patch? Thank you in advance, Dirce Richards Systems Engineer, GlobalCerts

Unplugging DVI causes Disabling IRQ #11
by Scott Johnson 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

I have some new PC hardware I'm using with the Intel H67 chipset. I created a bzImage I use for a PXE environment for a recovery mode, installing OS images, etc. The new mobo doesn't have a VGA port but instead DVI. Everytime I unplug the DVI cable it seems to cause "Disabling IRQ #11". After that the PC is basically unusable. The /proc/interrupts shows that hdd, usb, nic, RAID controller for some reason all share the same interrupt. What the heck? I tried booting with acpi=off and the bios doesn't seem to offer any IRQ/PnP options. Am I missing a specific driver in my bzImage for the H67 chipset or any ideas of what I could try next? It's been a sad day. bash-2.05b# cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 15185951 XT-PIC-XT timer 1: 4 XT-PIC-XT i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC-XT cascade 7: 75 XT-PIC-XT ehci_hcd:usb2 8: 1 XT-PIC-XT rtc 11: 2090574 XT-PIC-XT ahci, ehci_hcd:usb1, eth0, rr172x I even see a similar error on a fresh CentOS 5.7 install: irq 169: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff800bdf66>] __report_bad_irq+0x30/0x7d [<ffffffff800be1a4>] note_interrupt+0x1f1/0x232 [<ffffffff800bd6a5>] __do_IRQ+0xfa/0x140 [<ffffffff8006d4c1>] do_IRQ+0xe9/0xf7 [<ffffffff8005d615>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0xa <EOI> [<ffffffff801a2220>] acpi_safe_halt+0x25/0x36 [<ffffffff801a2a88>] acpi_processor_idle_simple+0xe6/0x31c [<ffffffff801a29a2>] acpi_processor_idle_simple+0x0/0x31c [<ffffffff80048fe2>] cpu_idle+0x95/0xb8 [<ffffffff80078a9a>] start_secondary+0x479/0x488 handlers: [<ffffffff801fc748>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x55) Disabling IRQ #169 Thanks for any help. -ScottEJ

Yum metadata / CR problems
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Hi, after the release of 6.1 I have to do a "yum clean all" on all my 6.0 machines in order to make yum work again. The reason is that the old CR directory on the mirrors is now empty and the new one isn't used until I actually upgrade the system to 6.1 (or at least the centos-release package). Isn't there a better way to handle this without breaking yum? I'm also not quite sure why the "yum clean all" is required. It has been a few days now since 6.1 has been released so shouldn't the cached metadata have been expired by now anyway or is there metadata that has unusually long caching times? Regards, Dennis

When will 6.2 be released.
by Johnny Hughes 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Let's go ahead and get this flame thread started now to save time. The CentOS team sucks ... it took XXXX days to do 6.1 ... it is going to take twice as long to get 6.2 My mom said CentOS blows. kbsingh is ugly. hughesjr is old and fat. OK ... that should do.

Using an MS Access database from CentOS release 5.7 (Final)
by Ron Young 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

@Work requires me to manipulate the MS Access database (mdb) file located on an XP box that is an integral part of a third party application that is central to the business. Does anyone have experience doing so? I have used odbtp in the recent past but it is extremely difficult to set up on the linux box as I learned when I recently upgraded from CentOS 4.x to 5.x. Is there another way to get read and write access to the mdb file from apache/php running from the linux box? A couple of hours of googling last night has resulted in finding very expensive odbc drivers for the linux box and nothing really foss except the odbc driver managers.

CentOS 6, yum-updatesd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

Back in the Fedora docs I found on a google, it mentions that in FC6, the preferred tool for updates was the "new" yum-updatesd. Anyone know: a) what theological reason upstream had to drop it altogether, and b) what's the recommended replacement - is it yum-cron? I hand-update some servers, and of course users' workstations, but some system, like home directory servers and backup servers are extremely unlikely to break with an autoupdate, so this is of immediate interest. mark

CR repo - version issue
by Philip Manuel 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

Hi We use mrepo to keep a local repository. I downloaded the CentOS6.1 iso and used that as the base. We also have the CR repo added. I was expecting this change to cause no issues but the following packages have version issues between the base 6.1 and the CR repo:- base version CR version dbus-libs-1.2.24-4.el6_0.x86_64 dbus-libs-1.2.24-5.el6_1.x86_64 libpng-1.2.44-1.el6.x86_64 libpng-1.2.46-1.el6_1.x86_64 cups-libs-1.4.2-39.el6.x86_64 cups-libs-1.4.2-39.el6_1.1.x86_64 zlib-1.2.3-25.el6.x86_64 zlib-1.2.3-26.el6.x86_64 krb5-libs-1.9-9.el6.x86_64 krb5-libs-1.9-9.el6_1.2.x86_64 perl-5.10.1-119.el6.x86_64 perl-5.10.1-119.el6_1.1.x86_64 perl-libs-5.10.1-119.el6.x86_64 perl-libs-5.10.1-119.el6_1.1.x86_64 There maybe a few other packages but this causes an issue with yum as it doesn't handle the el6_ suffix differences. Is this the intended behaviour ? Thanks

max user processes - is /etc/security/limits.conf the best place to change?
by Alexander Farber 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

Hello centos-users, in CentOS 6.1 is /etc/security/limits.conf the best place to change the number of max user processes for a daemon process? (I'm asking because the ".../security/..." part of the path sounds a bit strange) Thank you Alex

Shutdown KVM guest not working
by James B. Byrne 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

I am in the middle of a rather confusing situation. At the moment I am unable to shutdown a KVM guest machine. Nor am I presently able to open a virt-manager session on the host. I am not exactly sure what has happened but the problem with the vm guest is that issuing a "virsh shutdown 1" from the root console has no effect. # virsh list Id Name State -------------------------------------------- 1 vmguest01.... running # virsh shutdown 1 Doamin 1 is being shutdown wait 5 minutes # virsh list Id Name State -------------------------------------------- 1 vmguest01.... running How do I get this stopped? I have another problem with virt-manager as well. But I will leave that for another message. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
