Oddity with CentOS 6.4 instasll
by Scott Robbins 22 Jun '13

22 Jun '13

I have two SSD laptops. On one of them, I easily installed CentOS. On the second one, it failed at examining storage--it would either freeze completely or crash with a kernel panic message. On the second one, a generic Clevo, I decided to reinstall, and got the same issue--hanging or kernel panic on examining storage, though it had been trouble free the first time. I've been googling this and came across nothing relevant--in one case, it was due to LVMs, in another, due to a previous installation, in others, possibly due to EFI, none of which were a factor for me. On the Clevo, I decided to leave it as it is for now, as I'm using it, and the differences aren't major. On the other, an older Zenbook, the UX31E, I was able to get around it by installing CentOS 6.3 instead, which went in without incident. When it crashes, the machine freezes completely, so I'm not even able to view any logs, get to a terminal with ctl+alt+Fx. At this point, I'm not asking for help, as much as I am wondering if anyone else has run into this. Another theory given to someone having similar problems was to check memory, which I haven't done, but apparently, only CentOS and SL 6.4 have this problem. Also, as I can work around it, I am not going to spend a lot of time troubleshooting--but I'm wondering if anyone else has run into something similar. It's only been on these two laptops, and the only thing really in common is that they're SSD, but I have no idea if that's a factor--I don't have an extra SATA notebook drive to test if that's the issue or nto. So, my only question here is, has anyone else run into this, and did you find a fix? Or suggestions in trouble shooting? (Though I probably won't go to the effort of running memtest overnight, as 6.4 seems to be the only thing affected. I tried with both netinstall and Install DVD on both SL and CentOS, same result, crash or hang at examining storage devices). I have not tried totally cleaning the disk of either machine and seeing if that's an issue, but in both cases, there was both empty space and empty, standard ext4 partitions for them to use. Thanks for taking the time to look at this. Though I'm not going to invest a great deal of effort in troubleshooting, I'm certainly ready to try simple solutions. On the Zenbook, I don't have anything very important. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6

Cannot get rtorrent to run
by Yves S. Garret 22 Jun '13

22 Jun '13

If I'm writing about this in the wrong place, please let me know. However, when I uninstalled rtorrent and then re-installed it, I kept getting this very same error: $ rtorrent foobar.torrent rtorrent: symbol lookup error: rtorrent: undefined symbol: _ZN7torrent10ThreadBase8m_globalE Why is this happening?

fasttrack mirror server out of sync?

I don't know if it's useful to report this: (& who should I report it to?) # yum update [...] * base: mirrors.ircam.fr * extras: mirrors.ircam.fr * fasttrack: mirror.ovh.net * remi-ff: rpms.famillecollet.com * updates: centosq3.centos.org base | 3.7 kB 00:00 cr | 2.9 kB 00:00 extras | 3.4 kB 00:00 fasttrack | 3.4 kB 00:00 Not using downloaded repomd.xml because it is older than what we have: Current : Thu Jun 20 14:40:52 2013 Downloaded: Wed Jun 12 13:45:25 2013 To me it looks like mirror.ovh.net isn't sync'ing. for example: http://mirror.ovh.net/ftp.centos.org/6.4/updates/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml is from June the 13th http://centosq3.centos.org/centos-6/6.4/updates/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml is from June the 20th (idem for mirrors.ircam.fr) bye Patrick

To make getting started easy and quick, we have also published a Quick Started guide at: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart The Xen4CentOS virtualisation stack is available on CentOS-6 x86_64 only; and can be enabled by 'yum install centos-release-xen' which will setup the repo; The QuickStart guide mentioned above then has details on howto do the complete inital install. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Getting involved and support The xen4centos virtualisation stack is considered production grade stable and supported via the CentOS community on irc at #centos-virt on irc.freenode.net and the centos-virt list at http://lists.centos.org/ ; All issue reports should be filed at http://bugs.centos.org/ against CentOS-6/xen +++++++++++++++++++++++ Thanks and credits I would like to thank the Lars Kurth at the Xen Project for helping bootstrap the initiative that lead to this project; Richard Sharp, Stefano Stabellini, James Bulpin and David Vrabel at the Citrix Xen Open Source group for their help on the Xen hypervisor; Frediano Zilio at Citrix for doing the Libvirt ports; Pasi Karkkainen in the CentOS-QA team for all the testing and feedback; Johnny Hughes at the CentOS Project for the packaging, updates and repository management; Darren Shepherd and Mike Dorman along with the GoDaddy Cloud Engineering team for their extensive testing; Antony Messerli and the Rackspace Hosting team for their testing efforts.

Re: [CentOS] [Samba] Samba4 and NFSv4
by John Hodrien 20 Jun '13

Is it possible that Samba4 includes a large PAC on the kerberos credential and you're going over the limit in kernel? Against AD you have to disable this PAC inclusion via the userAccountControl attribute to make kerberised NFSv4 work correctly. You /sometimes/ find that testing with a user who is a member of as close to no groups as possible works in this case, but users in many groups fail. I'm not convinced your comment about having to run svcgssd on clients is enforced due to CentOS in it scripts, but it shouldn't cause any bother as you say. I can't check right now.

Firefox - remote xul manager gone after Centos update

Dear All, I am faced with this problem: Firefox version is 17.0.6 before and after the update I ran an update today; bash-4.1# yum history Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security ID | Login user | Date and time | Action(s) | Altered ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 296 | james <james> | 2013-06-20 21:08 | E, I, U | 42 I'm not sure which packet could have caused this, but before the update, I could go to Extra-webdeveloper-remote xul manager in Firefox and add domains Now remote xul manager is gone in webdeveloper. Can anyone offer any advise on this problem? greetings, J. -- Johan Vermeulen IT-medewerker Caw De Kempen johan.vermeulen(a)cawdekempen.be 0479.82.01.41 Opensource Software is the future.

I have tried creating a Samba4 user object with a suitable UPN using msktutil on the DC (this is successfully entered into the database): # OU=Computers # HOST=<short hostname> # msktutil -c -b CN=$OU \ -k nfs-$HOST.keytab \ --computer-name nfs-$HOST \ --upn nfs/$HOST.test.cornell.edu \ --service nfs/$HOST.test.cornell.edu \ --server `hostname` \ --dont-expire-password \ --hostname $HOST.test.cornell.edu \ --enctypes 0x3 and then importing this keytab into the host's keytab with ktutil (so, not using "net ads keytab add"). Verified the keytab with klist. Get permission denied when trying to mount with sec=krb5. Various different enctypes all get the same result. I tried also building nfs-utils 1.2.8 from source and installing that on the NFSv4 server (using the NFSv4 server as a client for this test). All I get then, no matter what I put in the keytab, is: rpc.gssd[1679]: ERROR: GSS-API: error in gss_set_allowable_enctypes(): GSS_S_BAD_MECH (An unsupported mechanism was requested) - Unknown error The build of nfs-utils (via rpmbuild) appeared clean but I suspect that there may be something wrong with it. Still using the 2.6.32-358.6.2.el6 kernel. I tried the workaround suggested in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=720479 just in case, but it made no difference. Running out of ideas! -Steve
