CentOS 6.4 installation fails with message "No usable disks have been found"
by Meikel 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hi folks, I inherited a very old computer (I guess about 8 years old) which I'd like to use for some training on CentOS. I downloaded images for CentOS 6.4 i386 (DVD 1 and 2) and burned them onto discs. After inserting DVD 1 into drive and booting, on the "Welcome to CentOS 6.4!" screen I select "Install or upgrade an existing system". I then skip the media test and start the installation. Then I get a graphical installer where I choose english language and U.S. international keyboard layout. Then I'm questioned about "What type of devices will your installation involve"? where I select "Basic Storage Devices" and then proceed. I get a dialog "Examining devices" with the message "Examining storage devices". After a short while a dialog "No disks found" appears displaying the message "No usable disks have been found". I then go back and choose "Specialized Storage Devices" but I then get the same result (no devices are found). Just to be sure that there are disks available and hardware works I installed a current Debian which works fine. From the BIOS and from Debian shell command "dmesg | grep -i ata" I see that there are two "Maxtor 6Y120L0" installed. Find output of "dmsg" below that email. Is it possible and what steps are necessary to install CentOS 6.4 on that "Maxtor 6Y120L0" hard disks? Regards, Meikel --- Output of "dmesg | grep -i ata" [ 1.690559] pata_via 0000:00:11.1: version 0.3.4 [ 1.690591] pata_via 0000:00:11.1: can't derive routing for PCI INT A [ 1.693019] scsi0 : pata_via [ 1.693396] scsi1 : pata_via [ 1.694434] ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 bmdma 0xa800 irq 14 [ 1.694442] ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xa808 irq 15 [ 1.864541] ata1.00: ATA-7: Maxtor 6Y120L0, YAR41BW0, max UDMA/133 [ 1.864549] ata1.00: 240121728 sectors, multi 16: LBA [ 1.864737] ata1.01: ATA-7: Maxtor 6Y120L0, YAR41BW0, max UDMA/133 [ 1.864744] ata1.01: 240121728 sectors, multi 16: LBA [ 1.880389] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 1.896439] ata1.01: configured for UDMA/133 [ 1.896738] scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA Maxtor 6Y120L0 YAR4 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 [ 1.897477] scsi 0:0:1:0: Direct-Access ATA Maxtor 6Y120L0 YAR4 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 [ 2.068361] ata2.00: ATAPI: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4167B, DL11, max UDMA/33 [ 2.068375] ata2.01: ATAPI: CD-956E/AKV, A99, max UDMA/33 [ 2.084228] ata2.00: configured for UDMA/33 [ 2.100283] ata2.01: configured for UDMA/33

trac, agilo plugin, rpm, aughghgh!!!
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

CentOS 6.5, with the current trac, and trac-agilo-plugin. I seem to have problems, and maybe even a bug in the packaging. I installed and got trac running with authentication. Fine. I installed and enabled the agilo plugin. Supposedly fine. Except it doesn't work. On the trac web pages, in the upper right, there's a text link labelled "admin"... but when I mouse over it, what I see in firefox is the path to the cgi/undefined. Undefined? If I search on how to activate the agilo plugin, it tells me to click on the admin icon on the toolbar... but there isn't any such. Finally, on the information I found with *much* googling, it mentions that to enable plugins, I might need to set PYTHON_EGG_CACHE. Now, the rpm installed it under /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/, and I see agilo, and agilo-0.9.7-py2.6.egg-info, and agilo_lib, and there's no egg per se. Is there a but with the trac package, that something's missing, or am I missing something? And what do I do with about the egg? mark "looks like Humpty Dumpty's got a problem"

Centos for Interested Children
by Always Learning 03 Apr '14

03 Apr '14

Today, an enthusiastic 10 year old boy asked me about Linux. I thought of telling me to go to centos.org but then realised there is nothing on centos.org for complete beginners to Linux or for children. If anyone has the time, energy and interest, perhaps a basic technical introduction to the Centos version of Linux would be a good long-term objective. Let's catch the children's interest, imagination and enthusiasm before they become immersed and entrapped in a Micro$oft-only world. Centos is for everyone including granddads and children. Centos is the future of first-class reliable Open Source Software. -- Paul. England, EU. Our systems are exclusively Centos. No Micro$oft Windoze here.

Chromium 31.0.1650.63-2.el6 for CentOS 6
by Johnny Hughes 03 Apr '14

03 Apr '14

All, As has already been brought up, we have not yet been able to build the new version of Chromium-32 for CentOS, and the current version (31.0.1650.63-1.el6) needs updating. We have also recently been informed that we may not redistribute the PepperFlash Library from the Google site (libpepflashplayer.so) as we did in 31.0.1650.63-1.el6. Therefore, I have had to rebuild the currently released version to remove the libpepflashplayer.so library. What this means for all Chromium users is that after upgrade, you will no longer have built in flash. I apologize for the inconvenience, but we have no real choice in the matter. While the CentOS team can not redistribute that library, end users can still get it ... here is how: 1. Become root and create a temporary working directory to download the package .. I recommend /tmp/working/ mkdir /tmp/working/ cd /tmp/working/ 2. Get the latest google chrome rpm from google for your arch (either x86_64 or i386): wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm (or if needing the 32bit version, substitute i386 for x86_64 in the above path) 3. Extract the RPM using this command: rpm2cpio google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm | cpio -idv (again, substitute i386 for x86_64 if required) 4. Create the PepperFlash directory where the library will live: mkdir /opt/chromium-browser/PepperFlash/ 5. Copy the chome PepperFlash library and json file to the new directory: cp opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/* /opt/chromium-browser/PepperFlash/ 6. Restart chromium and test that flash works. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

kwallet?

So, the other admin I work with comes by, and we're both using kde, and he asks me to to go the start menu, and fire up kwalletmanager. I do... and nothing happens. ps tells me it's running, but there is no window. What's supposed to happen? This is 6.5 mark "don't use it, anyway, but...."

ruby193 SCL and mod_passenger
by Filip Bartmann 03 Apr '14

03 Apr '14

I'm interested in ruby and I try the ruby193 SCL and I want to run Ruby on Rails with Apache, so I'm searching mod_passenger for this ruby SCL version, but I found, that this package is not in this SCL. Are any other possibilities to run Ruby on Rails with Apache or why is mod_passenger not in this SCL? Thanks, Filip Bartmann

It also had issues with respect to SELinux that as far as I know remain unresolved. I know that Dan Walsh was working hard with the Phusion team to deal with this but it seemed to me at that time that both sides were considerably distant from an agreement with Phusion at one point basically telling RedHat to fork their project and call it something else. Whether or not this is the reason that the Software Collection does not have an rpm for mod_passenger I cannot say. However, given that support for 1.9.3 ends next January and that Ruby is already at 2.1.1 I suggest that perhaps you are better off building your own Ruby from source and packaging it as a custom rpm. I provided a working spec file and somewhat detailed instructions for building Ruby-1.9.3 at http://byrnejb.wordpress.com/2013/01/30/building-ruby-1-9-3-for-centos-6-3/. You can trivially modify this for 2.1.0 (skip 2.1.1 which has a problem with objects inheriting from Hash - a big problem if you are employing Rails) to build your own package and then use Rubygems to install mod-passenger. You can also package mod_passenger as an rpm should you desire. I do not bother with repackaging gems, although perhaps I should so as to avoid loading development packages on production servers. Alternatively, you can use a Ruby version manager instead of using the system Ruby. On the use of rbenv or rvm I have mixed feelings. Both ruby version managers offer a valuable work-around for environments where system admin is not under the direction of the development team. For production deployments I found that there were other issues which made selection of rvm or rbenv problematic, notably in the deploy process itself and in the brittleness that resulted. I concluded after several incidents involving rvm deploys (not the fault of rvm by the way) that a package managed system really needs to remain a package managed system for ease and efficiency in maintenance. Of course, if you are deploying to a shared hosting arrangement where the production environment is not under your control then rvm or something much like it is unavoidable. But in that case you are only responsible for maintaining your own small part of the system and so your maintenance requirements are far more circumscribed. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
