BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 61s!
by Ian jonhson 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Dear All, I selected CentOS5 in my works and installed them in two DELL PowerEdge1950. However, a trouble blocked me during the machines run after two days. The machines crashed and the syslog said it got the following messages: ------------------ part dump of /var/log/messages ---------------------- .....

[http_cap:12228] ............. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I choose CentOS because I believe it is the most stable OS in commodity machines. But I don't know how to do when facing the trouble. The difference lies in that I patched a PF_RING patch in original kernel and recompiled the kernel to run my machines. I wonder whether the patched kernel crashes the CentOS because PF_RING automatically downloads the kernel codes from www.kernel.org, but not the one from www.centos.org? Or, the centOS holds the bugs in its distribution? Hope somebody can given me some advices. Thanks in advance. Best Regards, Ian

PF_RING crashed the CentOS5 - BUG: soft lockup - CPU#7
by Ian jonhson 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Hi all, The PF_RING seems not to work smoothly in CentOS 5. Several day before, I patched the kernel 2.6.25.3 and installed the PF_RING-patched kernel in my CentOS5. Based on the PF_RING, I developed my program to capture the network packages. I wished it can work until the machine power is off. Unforturnately, no matter how to adjust my program, whole system can not run more than 48 hours. Finally, whole system crashed and syslogd said it found the following kernel output. I have contacted CentOS people, but they said they had not met the same problem in their operating system before. I googled the internet and found similar bug occurred in Ubuntu on the same hardware platform: Dell poweredge. However, the fixing has to patch current kernel source code. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/linux/+bug/214814 Also, I don't know what kernel they used. I downloaded the kernel source codes from www.kernel.org and patched it with PF_RING. Then, I setup the pathed kernel to run CentOS 5. I would like to know whether I can avoid the bug if I used the original CentOS kernel code, not the one from www.kernel.org. Are there anyone who meet the similar trouble? Thanks a lot. ------------------ part dump of /var/log/messages ---------------------- .....

3ware 9650SE drivers for CentOS 5.0-EL kernel 2.6.18-8
by Gert Vandenreyt 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

The reason I'm using kernel 2.6.18 is that it is the only long term support version available in the LTSP project. I think after an update I will get kernel 2.6.19. The drivers available at the 3ware don't work, but I managed booting by compiling the driver myself in a vmware image. Grz, Gert.

RE: [CentOS] Cannot boot from DVD on an Intel Svr to install CentOS 5.2
by saltorres＠lvcoxmail.com 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Finally after days of trial an error I got the origin of the problem and how to solve it. I'm working from a Vista computer, so what I say here is related to this environment. 1. You have to download images (iso files) using FireFox web browser. Internet Explorer does not download them complete. 2. After downloading the image, download md5sum and checksum the file to be sure it was downloaded correctly. To do that, you have to open a command prompt in the folder where you downloaded the files and run the following command: md5sum centos-5.2-i386-bin-DVD.iso to generate the checksum number which you must compare to the one in the md5sum.txt that is found on the same site where you downloaded the files from. 3. Burn the DVD in a low speed (8x). The above 3 steps must do the trick. I hope it helps to some others new to CentOS.

rebuilding firefox-2.0.0.16 from fc8
by Mark Pryor 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

hello, I started with ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/8/SRPMS/firefox-2… with the hope of rebuilding it for el5/centos. All of the dependencies were available (mostly from rpmforge) except one: something called system-bookmarks. I elected to comment out this from the spec, firefox.spec I did the extracts with CPIO rpm2cpio firefox-xxx.src.rpm | cpio -i firefox.spec then i extracted everything else and copied it to my buildroot ~/redhat/SOURCES then the moment of truth. I didn't see another way except to rebuild all so I did >rpmbuild -ba --sign ~/SPECS/firefox.spec while the above worked, it took long enough that I was able to go to dinner and have a beer before it finished. On top of that, thermal alarms went off as the CPU/PWM reached 57C/67C. a new RPM, and src.RPM were written to the BR and the RPM (i386) works fine. Was it necessary to do the complete build (-ba) since I only eliminated a single build-requires value? -- Mark

CentOS 5.2 yum repos old rpm
by Justin 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Hey everyone, This is the first time I've ever used a mailing-list so bear with me :-) I've just got a new dedicated server from Hostik and they've installed CentOS 5.2 on the system (awesome!) and came pre-installed with PHP, MySQL, and Apache (among other things). I noticed that PHP version is 5.1.6, the MYSQL is 5.0.45, and Apache is 2.2.3 I ran yum to update, thinking it would update them to 5.2.6, 5.0.51a-community, 2.2.9 respectively: # yum makecache # yum update Of course after some time, I realize that the CentOS 5 repos only have those versions as the latest rpms in the list. So my question is, how do I change my yum configuration to install the latest and greatest versions of rpms installed via yum?

cupsd takes 100% of cpu
by Dan Halbert 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

I have never been able to get cups to work properly since CentOS 4.x (and am now on 5.2). When I try to "service start cups", cupsd immediately starts taking 100% of the cpu. Attaching strace to it shows no system calls happening. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling cups to get fresh config files. My printers.conf is empty. This is on a completely updated x86_64 CentOS 5.2 desktop system running gnome. There are no local printers attached the the box. We have a couple of networked HP printers and a Canon. I have not added any of these printers to the configuration. A lot of Googling has not turned up any help. Have you seen this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks much, Dan

sys-unconfig
by Mark Belanger 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

Does sys-unconfig work as advertised in 4.x? Meaning that if I have a fully configured box on my internal net and run sys-unconfig, will I be able to power up the node on a totally different network and have things work providing I answer the questions properly. Most typically this will mean taking a box that is using NIS in DNS domain A, NIS domain B, and static IP addr and move it to DNS domain C, NIS domain D, and dynamic IP. I can't remember the details now, but something didn't work right in 3.x -Mark
