ThinkStation with BIOS RAID and disk error messages in gparted
by H 03 Nov '20

03 Nov '20

My ThinkStation runs CentOS 7 which I installed on a BIOS RAID 0 setup with two identical 256 Gb SSDs after removing Windows. It runs fine but I just discovered in gparted something that does not seem right: - Launching gparted it complains "invalid argument during seek for red on /dev/md126" and when I click on Ignore I get another error "The backup GPT table is corrupt, but the primary appears OK, so that will be used." I then click on OK whereupon I again see the second error message. I then see "Not all of the space available to /dev/sdb appears to be used, you can fix the GPT to use all of the space (an extra 6832 blocks) or continue with the current setting? " I click on Fix but nothing seems to happen. I am not sure what /dev/md126 is but it is the exact same size as sda and sdb which I believe are the two RAID disks. I also have two other hard disks which seem to be fine, one using XFS, the other ZFS. Does this look familiar to anyone? Given the error messages it seems this is something I ought to fix sooner rather than later. Any idea what I should do? Thanks.

Odd issue happening CentOS 7
by Jerry Geis 02 Nov '20

02 Nov '20

So I have two CentOS 7 machines running. if I am on my server and I do "curl http://192.168.1.8" I get data. If I do "host devgeis.LayeredSolutionsInc.com" I get the correct address 192.168.1.8 if I goto another machine with CentOS 7. I do "curl http://192.168.1.8" I get data. I do "host devgeis.LayeredSolutionsInc.com" I get the correct address 192.168.1.8 BUT then I do "curl http://devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com" I get "nothing" BUt then doing the -v with "curl -v http://devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com" * About to connect() to devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com port 80 (#0) * Trying 198.168.1.8... So why when using the name is it not giving me the index.html page ? Should not be a firewall issue - as the actual address worked. Also I tried stopping the firewall - and all the above is the exact same. What is possibly happening here ? Thanks Jerry

Run as root on reboot
by david 29 Oct '20

29 Oct '20

Folks Is there a way to reboot and have a script run without intervention. During initial setup, I'd like to avoid the manual actions of logging on as root and executing a command, but instead have that command run without intervention. The output of the command would still show up on the terminal that initiated the reboot. Security is not a concern here. And I don't want to invoke high-powered functions like "jumpstart". David

System not logging
by Gary Stainburn 29 Oct '20

29 Oct '20

One of my boxes has stopped logging some of the things it's supposed to. I use rsyslog which used to send named and dhcpd entries to separate log files. Both named and dhcpd are working. I have shut down the DHCPD server and run it in debug mode and the output is produced as expected. I have shut down rsyslog and run that in debug mode and it looks like everything is running, but it's not receiving messages to log. I tried journalctl | grep -Ei 'dhcpd'|tail and I see the log entries for the service starting up, but no entries for DHCP transactoins happening. My rsyslog also receives network messages from my firewall and they are logging as expected. This suggests to me that the problem is that the log entries are either not being generated, or are not being allowed to get to rsyslog. Anyone go any ideas? I've tried the usual first step, and briefly disabled selinux but that made no difference Gary

Centos 7 + PHP7.2 - variables_order not working
by Gary Stainburn 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

I've just moved my site onto a new box and I'm having a real problem with $_REQUEST. The variables_order and request_order values are not being respected. I need the cookies to take the lowest priority, so I put it first in the sequence. However, as the code below shows this is not happening. Changing variables_order and request_order does not make any difference. Anyone got any ideas why? I've not seen this before. PHP.ini settings variables_order = "CGPS" request_order = "CGPS" The position of the 'C' seems to make no difference at all, but if I remove it then I get the expected response. adoptions get array(1) { ["adoptdate"]=> string(10) "2020-10-26" } adoptions post array(0) { } adoptions COOKIE array(7) { ["login"]=> string(1) "1" ["sesid"]=> string(10) "1603798666" ["adoptdate"]=> string(10) "2020-10-27" } adoptions REQUEST array(7) { ["adoptdate"]=> string(10) "2020-10-27" ["login"]=> string(1) "1" ["sesid"]=> string(10) "1603798666" }

CentOS 6.10, Epel 4.4.xx kernel, certmonger issue.
by Bill Maltby (C4B) 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

Any guidance appreciated. Been running CentoS 6.1 on my stuff in my 1-man office trying to buy time to have some liesure to learn the non inittab/telinit/runlevel stuff as I put up CentOS 8. So, yes I know EOL is upon me but since I've tried to become a user after exiting comp. biz decades ago I no longer stay with the "latest and greatest". Anyway, Have 6.10 up-to-date on a Ryzen 1700 and it run good. Installed the EPEL Nvidia k-mod driver and have been trting the 4.4 series of kernels from EPEL as well. It LOOKs, subjectively, to run much faster than the 2.6.32.xx kernel and, I suspect, will be more compatible with this hardware. Boots and runs non-graphical (runlevel 2) just fine. Problem is when I go to run level five it hangs on certmonger when running the 4.4 kernels. Googled and so form a LONG time agao (10 years maybe?) there had been an issue of hanging at certmonger that was fixed but I never found how it was fixed. Anyone have a cluebat for the clueless how I can get this combination to run? TIA, Bill

Firefox 78 under CentOS 6 -- no sound?
by Robert Heller 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

I did a yum update on my CentOS 6 laptop and it upgraded Firefox to 78, and FF stopped seeing my mic and speakers. Is there some magic I need to do? As a short term (?) fix, I downgraded back to Firefox 68. My system is otherwise up-to-date. -- Robert Heller -- Cell: 413-658-7953 GV: 978-633-5364 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services
