I now have an older laptop with a display problem. I installed Centos 7 on it in February and had to install the xorg-x11-drv-ati and evdev drivers because the docking station has an ATI Radeon card. Everything worked fine with a dual display setup. I probably after that ran a system update but did not reboot while in this office. Today, when I got to the office again for the first time in seven months it does not boot into the desktop but fails after displaying ”Started Light Display Manager” with a mouse pointer on one display that can be moved but no desktop at all. The keyboard works and I can start a terminal session. If I remove the laptop from the docking station everything works as expected but not in the station, presumably because it now uses the docking station card. Futzing around I see that systemctl --failed lists nothing, nor did dmesg immediately suggest a reason. In the yum history I see that this driver was updated to 19.0.1-3 from the 19.0.1-2 that installed with. Yum downgrade to 19.0.1-2 did not change the issue. Nor has booting an older kernel helped so far. Although when I remove quiet from the grub command line it seems to stop after ”Started Load CPU microcode update” following the ”Started Light Display Manager” already mentioned, I strongly suspect some issue with the graphics driver. Since the computer boots and seems to run fine with the internal display when removed from the docking station it seems that there are no hardware issues in the unit itself. My understanding is that the ATI driver can be a problem and needs to match the kernel etc - perhaps there is something wrong here? Any suggestions for how to attack this? I need to use it in the docking station and have no alternative. Thank you.

No sound after latest Firefox update (firefox-78.3.0-1.el6.centos.x86_64)
by Robert Nichols 02 Oct '20

02 Oct '20

With Firefox updated to firefox-78.3.0-1.el6.centos.x86_64, I cannot get sound from Firefox. I've tried restarting pulseaudio, also logging out and logging back in. No help. Other A/V apps work just fine. Downgrading to firefox-68.12.0-1.el6.centos.x86_64 makes sound work again. For now, I've excluded version firefox-78.3.0-1 from yum updates. Anyone else seeing this? Any hints? -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

CentOS 7 (2009) in progress
by Johnny Hughes 30 Sep '20

30 Sep '20

OK all .. RHEL 7.9 source code updated today. I am currently working to start the build of CentOS 7 based on that [CentOS 7 (2009) ]. Currently, we need to bootstrap and then build llvm-toolset-9.0 and rust-toolset-1.41 as some of the released packages need those toolsets. I also need to check devtoolset-7 and devtoolset-8 and see if we need any updates to pacakges there before we start the main build .. and I need to see of any of the packages need devtoolset-9. Once we have all those prerequisites completed, I can start the main builds. The goal, as usual, is to get the CR repo populated in 7 to 10 days: https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR And the final release completed in less than 40 days. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

JFS for CentOS 7
by H 28 Sep '20

28 Sep '20

I had installed kmod-jfs in an earlier version of CentOS 7, 7.4 if I remember correctly. I now have a machine running the latest version of jfs module but kmod-jfs does not seem to be available. Is anyone running it on the current version of CentOS?

C8 - Register with Red Hat
by Gregory P. Ennis 25 Sep '20

25 Sep '20

Everyone, I am still in the low end of the learning curve with Centos 8, and keep getting warning messages to register with Red Hat. Is this a requirement for C8. I do not have a user ID with Red Hat; will they give a user ID for a Centos user. "This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register." Thanks, Greg Ennis

Systemd service unit file needs to wait until a specific interface is up
by Carlos Lopez 24 Sep '20

24 Sep '20

Hi all, With SystemD, how can I make certain service dependent on certain network interfaces being up? For example, I have an 802.1ad bond interface I need to wait on for being up (this interface has no ip address assigned, it is used to capture networks packets with a tcpdump’s script). Every time this service fails because bond interface is not up. I have configured the service as: [Unit] Description=tcpdump capture script After=network.target Wants=network-online.target But it doesn’t work …. Any tip or trick? My host is CentOS8 x86_64. Regards, C. L. Martinez

Chromium 85 does not load any pages
by H 24 Sep '20

24 Sep '20

I just upgraded chromium on my CentOS 7 system and ended up with nothing loading. I tried to downgrade using yum downgrade chromium but there does not seem to be an older version on my system, nor does EPEL seem to have version 84 which is what I ran before. First, does anyone know why chromium 85 does not load /anything/? Firefox runs fine. Second, why is chromium 84 not available in EPEL? Thanks.

ZFS and encryption on CentOS 7
by H 23 Sep '20

23 Sep '20

Can I ask what the prevailing opinion is on ZFS and encryption on CentOS 7? Is encryption in ZFS stable? If so, I would use it on a new naked drive I just added. If not, I might stick with LUKS and XFS for now. The drive is a 2 Tb SSD. Thanks.

Forefox on C7 - uses wrong program to view download folder

I've got a C7 laptop using the default repo's (installed plus epel). My firefox has decided to use the wrong program to view the downloads folder. If I download and save a file, then click on the Downloads icon and click on view folder containing the file, it opens the MP3 editor EasyTag instead of Dolphin or Konquror. How do I change it back.

iptables & voip
by Gregory P. Ennis 22 Sep '20

Everyone, I would like to use our gateway linux machine to give bandwidth preference to voip udp packets. Can anyone point me to a tutorial about the use of voip and iptables? I usually prefer to use iptables instead of firewalld. iptables is more intuitive, and easier to understand. Thanks much!!! Greg Ennis

CentOS Linux updates released (RSS Feeds)
by Johnny Hughes 21 Sep '20

21 Sep '20

As you may or may not know, we do not have the ability to currently announce CentOS Linux 8 announcements on the CentOS Annonuce Mailing List. We would like to add this in the future. For now, what we do have is an RSS feed for all updates that get released. Use your favorite RSS Feed Tool (I use Thunderbird .. lots of other things available). https://feeds.centos.org/ Subscribe to the xml file you are interested in .. for example, for normal CentOS Linux 8 x86_64 arch installs .. you would subscribe to: https://feeds.centos.org/centos-8-x86_64-BaseOS.xml https://feeds.centos.org/centos-8-x86_64-AppStream.xml This is for people who have asked about what rpms are updated and how to see when new updates happen on CentOS Linux 8. But it works for all versions of CentOS (There are xml files for all repos of CentOS Linxui 6. 7, and 8 .. Also CentOS Stream). Thanks, Johnny Hughes

CentOS 8 LSI SAS2004 Driver
by William Markuske 20 Sep '20

20 Sep '20

Hello, I've recently been given domain over a number of supermicro storage servers using Broadcom / LSI SAS2004 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Spitfire] (rev 03) to run a bunch of SSDs. I was attempting to do fresh installs of CentOS 8 and have come to find out that RedHat deprecated support for a number of HBAs for 8 including all running the SAS2004 chip. Does anyone know if there is a driver available for this chip from a third party repo? My google searches have led me to believe that EPEL 8 has a kmod-mpt3sas package but it does not seem to exist though multiple blogs have stated otherwise. If anyone knows if there is a solution for CentOS 8 that would be great or if I have to roll back to CentOS 7 for card support. Thanks, William

Drive failed in 4-drive md RAID 10

I'm considering a WDS100T1R0A (2.5" 1TB red drive), which Amazon has for $135, plus the 3.5" adapter. The system serves primarily as a home mail server (it fetchmails from an outside VPS serving as my domain's MX) and archival file server.

storage for mailserver
by Michael Schumacher 19 Sep '20

19 Sep '20

hi, I am planning to replace my old CentOS 6 mail server soon. Most details are quite obvious and do not need to be changed, but the old system was running on spinning discs and this is certainly not the best option for todays mail servers. With spinning discs, HW-RAID6 was the way to go to increase reliability and speed. Today, I get the feeling, that traditional RAID is not the best option for SSDs. I am reading that all RAID members in SSD-arrays age synchronously so that the risk of a massive failure of more than one disk is more likely than with HDDs. There are many other concerns like excessive write load compared to non-raid systems, etc. Is there any common sense what disk layout should be used these days? I have been looking for some kind of master-slave system, where the (one or many) SSD is taking all writes and reads, but the slave HDD runs in parallel as a backup system like in a RAID1 system. Is there any such system? Any thoughts? best regards Michael Schumacher

Be sure it's the drive you want to find then put dd if=/dev/sdf of=/dev/null into a shell, but don't run it. Look at the drives and hit enter and watch for which one lights up. Then ^c while watching to be sure the light turns off exactly when you hit it.

erasing a disk
by david 14 Sep '20

14 Sep '20

Folks I've encountered situations where I want to reuse a hard-drive. I do not want to preserve anything on the drive, and I'm not concerned about 'securely erasing' old content. I just want to be able to define it as an Physical Volume (in a logical volume set), or make it a ZFS disk, or sometimes make it a simple EXT3, ExFAT or NTFS disk. However, old 'signatures' get in the way and Linux sometimes refuses to let me proceed. I know that a fool-proof solution is to use the "dd if=/dev/zero bs=32768 oflag=direct" on the disk, but when we're talking USB-connected hard drives of 8 TB, that's an operation that can take days. The disk in question might even have been corrupted. This would make using 'zpool destroy' to clear out a ZFS disk, or I've tried erasing the first megabyte of the disk, but there are ZFS or LVM structures that get in the way. So, does anyone have an efficient way to erase structures from a disk such that it can be reused? Something like -erase first N blocks (block defined as 4096) - Erase <number> blocks starting at block <number> - erase last <number> blocks At least such an algorithm would be quicker than erasing 8 TB of data.

Do you see those errors on systems that boot normally? Do any of those system share a hardware configuration with the system that doesn't? The latter error seems more likely to be the cause of the emergency shell, but that's a guess.

Server entering Emergency Shell, but continues fine after pressing Enter
by Quinn Comendant 12 Sep '20

12 Sep '20

Hello all, I've got an odd problem that doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere. I have several identical CentOS 7 servers (GCE instances). I recently ran `yum update` and rebooted all of them. All the servers came back fine except one. I opened a connection to the serial console of the broken server, and was greeted with this prompt: … Cannot open access to console, the root account is locked. See sulogin(8) man page for more details. Press Enter to continue. I pressed Enter, and the boot process continued successfully! Just to test, I restarted the server again, and the same thing happened: I had to manually log in to the console and press Enter before it would complete the boot process. No other step was required. I also tried creating a snapshot of the disk, and booted a new VM with a boot disk imaged from the snapshot. The same problem occurred, pressing Enter was all that was required. Earlier in the boot log, it shows "Started Emergency Shell", which is why there was a "Press Enter" prompt. The error that the "root account is locked" isn't the issue; the root account is locked on all our servers. So, in summary: something is causing the server to enter an Emergency Shell, but continues successfully after pressing Enter. That's odd because if Emergency Shell is loaded, usually something more serious is happening and requires more actions to get the server to boot. Anybody have any idea what could be causing this? I don't see any significant errors in the boot log, but I would appreciate if anyone has a moment to help me look for issues. Here's a copy of the serial console boot log – you can find the "Press Enter to continue" on line 536: https://write.as/dwuts24dcw6yh0kf.txt Thanks! Quinn

Thunderbird won't start after move to new box
by Gary Stainburn 12 Sep '20

12 Sep '20

I've tried moving my Thunderbird profile from one C7 box, a standard PC to another C7 box, a DELL server. I did this by rsync'ing ~/.thunderbird. However, on the new box, Thunderbird only starts if I run it -safe-mode. If I don't run it in safe mode I see the window flash up and instantly close. No errors or notifications appear in the terminal window., Anyone got suggestions on what could be wrong, or how I can diagnose it? Google just seems to bring up hits for problems on Windows boxes.

Plasma problem with numeric keypad
by Alessandro Baggi 08 Sep '20

08 Sep '20

Hi list, I'm running CentOS 8.2 with Plasma from EPEL and I noticed that I have problem using numeric keypad of my keyboard when using plasma application like Konsole, Kcalc, Konqueror and all application of Plasma. Using Firefox, Thunderbird, xterm, Libreoffice all works as expected. So this problem is related to Plasma application. I noticed the same problem on sddm login. I noticed that to make the numeric keypad to work I need to press SHIFT+NUMKEY. I tried to manage Plasma keyboard configuration but nothing worked. I tried my keyboard on other PC and distro but the problem does not occour. I should try this using GNOME or XFCE but being a KDE user I would avoid to install the others. There is a way to solve this problem? Thank you in advance. Alessandro.

Conversion from Centos 5 to Centos 7 & mailx changes
by Gregory P. Ennis 07 Sep '20

07 Sep '20

Everyone, I have just upgraded a Centos 5 server to a Centos 7 server and am having difficulty with a change of behavior of mailx with the use of a command line of : mail -s 'This is the subject' user(a)domain.com < text_file.txt On Centos 5 when mailx was used by a program started by a cron job we were able to send a text file as an email message and the headers did not contain 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64' On Centos 7 the headers contain 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64' and when the client gets the e-mail they are unable to open it up. The interesting thing is that on Centos 7 when the command line is used by typing the above command 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit' is placed in the header and the client can see the e-mail without a problem. I have looked for a way to control the 'Content-Transfer-Encoding:' header to '7bit' when we use a cron job, but I have not been able to figure out how. Your suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you, -- Greg Ennis

Tracking or checking backported kernel patches from upstream
by Carlos A. Carnero Delgado 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hi! I'm interested in finding out if a couple of upstream kernel patches were backported into CentOS (RHEL), in particular this one <https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?…> and this one <https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?…> . What's the procedure? After reading an article <https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/what-backporting-and-how-does-it-apply-rhel-…>, I went into Red Hat's bugzilla, and tried several search terms (including the kernel's commit ID) but found nothing. Thanks!

OPENVPN setup in CentOS-6 NetworkManager
by Janos G. Komaromi 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hi, I need some help. I have CentOS-6 installed on an older 32bit desktop. The command su -c "openvpn --config foo.ovpn" works well, but would like to do it from NetworkManager. (1) If I try to import foo.ovpn then the certificate file references are not populated. If I try to select files extracted from foo.ovpn then the Private key file cannot be selected and therefore setup is aborted. (2) If I create a .conf file with appropriate entries then NetworkManager imports it fully, including the .pem key file. However, connection is timed out, connection fails. I researched Internet, RFM, permissions, SElinux, messages, etc. to no avail, so I request support. Do I miss a component? Where can I examine the NetworkManager log? Why the .pem key file is not selectable? I try this mailing list first - and thank you. Janos -- Janos G. Komaromi sent it NOT from iPhone nor Google facebook, instagram, viber, snapchat, twitter, #@*~| etc. - neither of those https://jgklinux.jankom.net/

EL8: SElinux / dac_override / tmpwatch
by Leon Fauster 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

Hi, I'm moving some old stuff from EL6 to EL8 and one setup has a cron job which uses "tmpwatch -umc $dir" to clean some directories (/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch). It seems that this triggers this AVC (SElinux mode is enforcing): type=AVC msg=audit(1598576896.772:4267): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=11013 comm="tmpwatch" capability=1 scontext=system_u:system_r:tmpreaper_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:tmpreaper_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=capability permissive=0 The tmpwatch exec line had "--force" before and I was hopping that this "capability" was the cause and deleted it but this night the AVC are still appearing. Is cron running in EL8 with stripped CAPs of? Does some one have an idea to address this? -- Thanks, Leon

CentOS 8 installer bug

CentOS7 and NFS
by Patrick Bégou 28 Aug '20

28 Aug '20

Hi, I need some help with NFSv4 setup/tuning. I have a dedicated nfs server (2 x E5-2620 8cores/16 threads each, 64GB RAM, 1x10Gb ethernet and 16x 8TB HDD) used by two servers and a small cluster (400 cores). All the servers are running CentOS 7, the cluster is running CentOS6. Time to time on the server I get: kernel: NFSD: client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx testing state ID with incorrect client ID And the client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx freeze whith: kernel: nfs: server xxxxx.legi.grenoble-inp.fr not responding, still trying kernel: nfs: server xxxxx.legi.grenoble-inp.fr OK kernel: nfs: server xxxxx.legi.grenoble-inp.fr not responding, still trying kernel: nfs: server xxxxx.legi.grenoble-inp.fr OK There is a discussion on RedHat7 support about this but only open to subscribers. Other searches with google do not provide useful information. Do you have an idea how to solve these freeze states ? More generally I would be really interested with some advice/tutorials to improve NFS performances in this dedicated context. There are so many [different] things about tuning NFS available on the web that I'm a little bit lost (the opposite of the previous question). So if some one has "the tutorial"...;-) Thanks Patrick

Laptop and NFS homedir
by isdtor 27 Aug '20

27 Aug '20

Afternoon, Are there any documented best practices for using NFS home directories on laptops? Right now, and this is on CentOS 7, when I disconnect the machine from the network, the desktop freezes, and I can't even tell if the machine switches to the wireless network. If this sort of adapter switching, which is standard in e.g. Windows 10, is even supported. Thanks for any insights.

Viewing changelog for packages to be updated
by Kenneth Porter 26 Aug '20

26 Aug '20

Is there some way to see the RPM changelog entries for a prospective yum update? Ideally I'd like to see just the entries that are newer than the version of the package I already have. I saw a new kernel in today's yum-cron email and I'd like to know what it's about and how urgent the issue is for me.

CentOS7 page-ranges printer option seems ignored
by Josh 24 Aug '20

24 Aug '20

A follow up on https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2020-July/351009.html In addition to page size problems I just found out that page-ranges option is ignored. To reproduce I created a two page PDF file and printed it like lp -d printer_name -o page-ranges=1 twopage.pdf Two local printers, HP and Canon output two pages. Printers were configured using CUPS UI by selecting the appropriate USB printer, then manufacturer and then PPD from a list of models. If I move printers to a Fedora 32 system they print correctly. Upgrading CentOS7 CUPS server from 1.6.3 to latest 2.3.3 had no effect. I wonder what else needs to be updated to resolve this problem. Thank you. -- Josh

CentOS 8 kernel-4.18.0-193 shim issue
by Mark LaPierre 21 Aug '20

21 Aug '20

Hey All, Is it safe to allow the 193 series kernel update now? Last time I tried that my system refused to boot. I had to roll back to the 4.18.0-147 kernel to get my machine to reboot. Since that happened I've been watching this mail list for acknowledgement that the problem has been corrected while refusing the kernel update. I may have missed the announcement that the issue was resolved and the the update is now approved. -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

Is anyone running their own Jamulus server? I have an x86_64 system running Centos7 that I can try bringing it up for my wife. So I better get it right! I have found rpms for 3.4.7.1 at: https://pkgs.org/download/Jamulus But on SourceForge I am seeing source for ver 3.5.10. In blogs I am seeing that the better client is for at least ver 3.5.1. Are there rpms available for some 3.5 version? thanks

Boot fails with lvm snapshot
by Patrick Bégou 20 Aug '20

20 Aug '20

Hi, I have a strange problem with my centos7 file server. I have a large data storage (75TB in RAID6, managed by lvm) and each night I create a snapshot (removing first the previous one). The snapshot is mounted read-only so if a user remove a file accidentally he can restore it in the same day. However, if this snapshot exists, reboot of the server freeze at boot time and I must manually remove this snapshot. Why ? There are no entry in /etc/fstab for this snapshot, it is a cron script that manage this snapshot and mount it. Patrick

Where can CentOS7 yum-cron logs be found?
by Gunnar Niels 19 Aug '20

19 Aug '20

I'm trying to setup two CentOS7 systems with automatic security updates to run as my kubernetes nodes. I've also centralized all my outgoing mail through my mailgun service, so I've been using the cli tool "mailx", which I have configured with my credentials. Coming from Fedora32 and CentOS7, dnf-automatic had a helpful emission target that was "email_command". By default it sent notifications using this command. With yum-cron, all I see is "email", which doesn't appear to use the "mail" command. I would like to set up something myself to send the daily yum activity, but it's not clear at all where I should expect the yum-cron "stdio" output to end up at. I "started" the service, which is really just creates sentincal file to allow the yum.daily cron entry to run. However, when I look at /var/log/yum, there's nothing there of interest. I can see that it claims to have run, but I have no idea what it did. Is there another place I should be looking for what this actually did? Separately, I'm looking for a way to confirm its behavior. I was able to do this on my dnf systems by downgrading a package, but if I use `yum downgrade X` on this CentOS7 system...it just reports success and does nothing. Any ideas about that one? -GN

how to run CentOS 8.2 under new WSL2?
by Dev Linux 18 Aug '20

18 Aug '20

I want to run CentOS 8.2 (2004) under Windows 10 Pro (2004) that comes with WSL2 1. Is there a list of steps anywhere, that would help me download what I need, and get CentOS 8.2 running under WSL2? 2. What would I need to download? (need direct URL - there are so many options for CentOS 8.2 , I am confused) 3. What steps would I need to take to get this running locally on my Windows 10 machine? Notes: ==> I don't want to run any existing CentOS available in the Windows store, I want to roll my own ==> I don't want to run CentOS 8.2 under VirtualBox or any other virtualization technology, just WSL2 ==> I don't want to download any .zip from a previous release that is not CentOS 8.2, ideally would like to be self-sufficient and gain the knowledge on how to do this myself. --- If anyone has actually done this with CentOS 8.2 and WSL2 and has it working swimingly, please reply, would love to get this up and running for a higher level of productivity, scripting and automation on my Windows dev box.

Installing devtoolset-6 on CentOS 8
by Eric Gervais-Despres 18 Aug '20

18 Aug '20

Has anybody tried (and succeeded) to get gcc 6.3.1 (or devtoolset-6) to work on CentOS 8? In the Animation and Visual Effect industry, gcc 6.3.1 is still the current recommended compiler (see www.vfxplatform.com) and is required to build many plugins. Unfortunately, it is not a "minimum requirement"... It is THE requirement. So I tried to get it from the vault: -- sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo= http://vault.centos.org/7.6.1810/sclo/x86_64/rh/ sudo dnf install devtoolset-6 -- but I get these messages: -- Error: Problem: package devtoolset-6-6.1-1.el7.x86_64 requires devtoolset-6-runtime, but none of the providers can be installed conflicting requests nothing provides policycoreutils-python needed by devtoolset-6-runtime-6.1-1.el7.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages -- All options fail. I hate having to install something not officially supported anymore, but still officially required for many current software.

Replacement for KMail V1
by Gary Stainburn 17 Aug '20

17 Aug '20

Last week my trusty Fedora 9 file and print server failed on me. Not bad for 12 years trusty service. I have now replaced it with a C7 server and found that lots have changed in those 12 years. Thankfully many things haven't, named-chroot, dhcpd, etc pretty much copied across and Samba wasn't a major rewrite. However I feel like my right arm has been chopped off. My work life revolves around my emails which were in KMail version 1.x. My first thought was to move to the current KMail which is version 4.x. The problem is that it's cr*p. It appears to be the same as V1, but just more up to date - perfect. Unfortunately it is so slow that it is completely unusable, even on a brand new server. As a GUI it is unusable, and functionally fails with connections time out etc. Some research has found that KMail was stuffed as far back as V2 when they moved to using an embedded MYSQL engine to drive it. What I would really like is advice on how to make KMail V4 usable. As I doubt that is possible can anyone please recommend a decent email client with good keyboard short-cuts and filtering processes. I am currently limping along using Thunderbird but I find the lack of useful keystroke functions (such as next unread message, next folder with an unread message) annoying. Having to move my hand from keyboard to mouse is more exercise than I'm used to.

Dumb Centos 8 DNF mirror question...
by Tom Bishop 14 Aug '20

14 Aug '20

I have several Centos 8 machines that I update and every now and again I will go through and update all of them and one of them will get a slow mirror, like downloading the kernel at 50kb etc. With the newer version I am unable to figure out how to force it to update the mirror list and hopefully change to a faster mirror. I have searched but must not be using the right verbiage since I am unable to find the easy solution to dump the mirrors and re-select. Thanks :)

After update to 8 (2004) ... system is unbootable - UEFI Secure boot

Hi all, I updated a Dell XPS laptop from CentOS 8.1 (1911) to 8.2 (2004). Installed kernels are kernel-4.18.0-147.5.1.el8_1.x86_64 kernel-4.18.0-147.8.1.el8_1.x86_64 kernel-4.18.0-193.6.3.el8_2.x86_64 Unfortunately I can not boot into the latest kernel-4.18.0-193.6.3.el8_2.x86_64. After grub2 screen I only see following line: EFI stub: UEFI Secure Boot is enabled Booting into the older kernel is still possible. The above line appears and after that the normal kernel output scrolls over the screen (rhgb quiet disabled). Is the new kernel correctly signed? What can I do? -- Thanks Leon

Docker swarm service misconfigured in FirewallD / CentOS 7
by Nicolas Kovacs 13 Aug '20

13 Aug '20

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with Docker Swarm on three sandbox servers running CentOS 7. Unfortunately I couldn't get even the most basic configuration running. After some experimenting and investigating, it turns out there's a problem with FirewallD. Here's what I did first on every single node. # firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=docker-swarm # firewall-cmd --reload I launched a simple web service like this: # docker service create --name web -p 80:80 nginx My three nodes appear correctly with 'docker node ls'. >From here, I should be able to open the Nginx default web page in a web browser using any node's hostname. But nothing happens. No page is loaded. On a whim, I turned off FirewallD, and suddenly everything worked as expected. Now here's the list of ports that have to be open on every single node for Docker Swarm to work: * 2376/tcp * 2377/tcp * 7946/tcp * 7946/udp * 4789/udp And here's what docker-swarm.xml looks like under CentOS 7: # cat /usr/lib/firewalld/services/docker-swarm.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <service> <short>Docker integrated swarm mode</short> <description>Natively managed cluster of Docker Engines (>=1.12.0), where you deploy services.</description> <port port="2377" protocol="tcp"/> <port port="7946" protocol="tcp"/> <port port="7946" protocol="udp"/> <port port="4789" protocol="udp"/> <protocol value="esp"/> </service> So it looks like TCP port 2376 was forgotten in that service definition. I opened it up manually on every node: # firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2376/tcp # firewall-cmd --reload And now Docker Swarm works correctly.

NFSroot over wifi in CentOS 7 - graceful shutdown problem
by Dmitry E. Mikhailov 13 Aug '20

13 Aug '20

Hi, I've got a task to have a small number of laptops netboot Linux over WiFi. The kernel is loaded off the USB stick of cource, it's off topic for now. The WPA-supplicant daemon is started early by dracut off initrd. It works. Mostly. The problem is that upon shutdown systemd terminates all the processes FIRST and unmounts filesystems NEXT. Guess what? Upon termination, wpa-supplicant brings the wireless interface down and the system hangs being unable to unmount now-defunct NFSroot. There were some discussions regarding similar matter and there's even the RH Errata: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2018:2447 But I'm woking on a fully updated CentOS Linux release 7.8.2003 and nevertheless I've got the problem. I don't have rights to see the BZ. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1593649 I'm deciding to use a quick and dirty hack to do a totally ungraceful shutdown/reboot: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/533307/systemd-fails-to-umount-man… Any better ideas? Best regards, Dmitry Mikhailov.

Thanks Simon,I think my question got a bit lost amongst all the grub issues - does anyone else have information about whether any references to syslog.target in systemd unit files can be removed?ChrisSent from Samsung Mobile on O2 -------- Original message -------- From: Simon Matter via CentOS <centos(a)centos.org> Date: 31/07/2020 10:02 (GMT+00:00) To: CentOS mailing list <centos(a)centos.org> Subject: Re: [CentOS] systemd syslog.target Hi,>> I've noticed that there are several systemd unit files in CentOS 7 and 8> with the optionAfter=syslog.targetin the [Unit] section, but since systemd> version 198 syslog.target has not existed.I deduce from this that> "After=syslog.target" is ignored by systemd and can therefore be removed.> Is this correct?

Docker container isolation not working in CentOS 7
by Nicolas Kovacs 10 Aug '20

10 Aug '20

Hi, I've decided to use these summer holidays to wrap my head around Docker and its quirks. Spent the last couple weeks working through a Udemy tutorial and a thick book about Docker, and I have Docker CE installed on two machines: * my workstation running OpenSUSE Leap 15.1 * a public sandbox server running CentOS 7 I'm currently fiddling with custom networks and container isolation, and it looks like I discovered a bug or at least an inconsistency in CentOS. Maybe the gurus among you have an explanation for this. Sorry if this is a bit long, but I try to be as clear as possible. OpenSUSE Leap 15.1 ------------------ For demonstration purposes on how things *should* be, I'm starting two Nginx containers named "webserver1" and "webserver2": $ docker run -dit --name webserver1 nginx $ docker run -dit --name webserver2 nginx These two containers have the respective 172.17.0.2 and 172.17.0.3 IP addresses: $ docker network inspect bridge | grep -i ipv4address "IPv4Address": "172.17.0.2/16", "IPv4Address": "172.17.0.3/16", The "webserver1" container has the 172.17.0.2 IP address: $ docker exec -it webserver1 hostname -I 172.17.0.2 Since "webserver1" and "webserver2" are both on the "bridge" network, they can communicate with each other: $ docker exec -it webserver1 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.3 <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Welcome to nginx!</title> ... Now I'm creating the custom "blog" network: $ docker network create blog $ docker network ls NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE e02e6fc654c6 blog bridge local 3ea6f28134ba bridge bridge local 8d2b8dfe5352 host host local 0bd337e274c2 none null local I'm starting a third container named "webserver3" and assign it to the new "blog" network: $ docker run -dit --name webserver3 --network blog nginx This new container is in a whole new network segment: $ docker network inspect blog | grep -i ipv4address "IPv4Address": "172.20.0.2/16", As is to be expected, it can't communicate with the other two containers: $ docker exec -it webserver3 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.2 curl: (28) Connection timed out after 5001 milliseconds $ docker exec -it webserver3 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.3 curl: (28) Connection timed out after 5001 milliseconds So far so good. CentOS 7 -------- Now let's repeat the exact same experiment on a server running CentOS 7. First, create two containers on the default "bridge" network and check if they can communicate with each other: $ docker run -dit --name webserver1 nginx $ docker run -dit --name webserver2 nginx $ docker network inspect bridge | grep -i ipv4address "IPv4Address": "172.17.0.3/16", "IPv4Address": "172.17.0.2/16", $ docker exec -it webserver1 hostname -I 172.17.0.2 $ docker exec -it webserver1 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.3 <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Welcome to nginx!</title> ... Now create a custom "blog" network and start a third container assigned to that network: $ docker network create blog $ docker network ls | grep blog 0571c80fef1b blog bridge local $ docker run -dit --name webserver3 --network blog nginx $ docker network inspect blog | grep -i ipv4address "IPv4Address": "172.19.0.2/16", $ docker exec -it webserver3 hostname -I 172.19.0.2 Now IN THEORY "webserver3" shouldn't be able to communicate with the "webserver1" and "webserver2" containers. But here's what happens IN PRACTICE (and only on CentOS 7): $ docker exec -it webserver3 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.2 <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Welcome to nginx!</title> ... $ docker exec -it webserver3 curl -m 5 http://172.17.0.3 <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Welcome to nginx!</title> ... As far as I'm concerned, it looks like a bug, it walks like a bug and it quacks like a bug. Any remarks and/or suggestions?

ZFS fails with latest C8 kernel
by Robert G (Doc) Savage 10 Aug '20

10 Aug '20

As if last weekend's UEFI debacle wasn't bad enough, it now seems the latest C8 kernel (4.18.0-193.14.2) is incompatible with the current ZFSOnLinux packages (0.8.4-1). When booted to the latest kernel, ZFS is inaccessible on my C8 storage server. When I back off to the prior kernel (4.18.0-193.6.3), all is well. If a local ZFS system is unavailable to the C8 kernel support folks, I'll be happy to assist them by volunteering my system as a lab rat. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL

python problem
by Chuck Campbell 09 Aug '20

09 Aug '20

Question for the list: I have a small, aircooled pc server, which is running fine, but the log gets filled with a series of messages saying the package, and each of 8 cpus is throttled because of thermal issues. Then, within the same second according to the timestamps, it reports everything is OK and throttling is off. This happens once every minute. In reality, when I try performance tests, I believe the processor is actually spending measurable time in the throttled condition. I have installed lmsensors, and am monitoring temps as frequently as the reported throttling occurs, but I never see any high cpu temps. I see them vary, based on load, but never high enough to be alarmed, or to be throttled. I did a lot of googling, and I see some intel issues in some lenovo laptops, and a potential fix. I did the following: dnf copr enable abn/throttled dnf install -y throttled but I get this output: Error: Problem: conflicting requests - nothing provides python3-configparser needed by throttled0.7-1.x86_64 I have no guess what to do about this.

Fixing grub/shim issue Centos 7
by david 09 Aug '20

09 Aug '20

After trying several paths, some suggested on this list, here's my results. 1) Fixing a unbootable system wasn't practical in my case. Fortunately, all my systems can be rebuilt from scratch. 2) When I was lucky enough to catch an updated system before reboot, backing out the defective updates wasn't possible. Yum said there were no prior versions. 3) The most reliable method I found for Centos 7 was: - Re=install from scratch (luckily, my data files were safe and restorable) - Before running any updates, apply the fix suggested by Redhat and exclude updates to grub2, shim and mokutil. - Without the above 'exclude', the system became unbootable after a yum update even though the corrected versions of shim should have been loaded. The system I'm dealing with is Centos 7. I can easily rebuild it from scratch and test stuff without losing crucial data, if it would helpful. 4) I haven't experimented yet with centos 8 because the hardware is remote and requires me to get a friend involved to help. My local hardware is not supported by Centos 8, so it will remain on Centos 7 until I replace the hardware or switch to a different Linux. David

I have a dilemma: I have nextcloud running under user and group apache, as recommended by the installation.

The commands must be run as user apache...

Reset booleans to default value ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 07 Aug '20

07 Aug '20

Hi, Here's a list of all the booleans I tweaked on my server running CentOS 7: $ sudo cat /etc/selinux/targeted/active/booleans.local # This file is auto-generated by libsemanage # Do not edit directly. named_write_master_zones=0 httpd_can_sendmail=1 httpd_unified=1 ftpd_full_access=1 httpd_can_network_connect=1 spamd_enable_home_dirs=1 How can I "reset" (in a manner of speaking) these booleans to their default value post-install? Ideally, the booleans.local file should be empty, but since it's auto-generated, there's not much sense in simply erasing it. Curiously enough, I didn't find any information about this.

Centos 7 shim fix failed
by david 06 Aug '20

06 Aug '20

Following the advice on this mailing list, I rebuilt (from scratch) Centos 7.8. I added the following line into /etc/yum.conf before the first update: exclude=grub2* shim* mokutil The system worked fine. I was able to do general updates yum -y update and all was well. HOWEVER, following Johnny Hughes' directions: a) remove the 'exclude' line from yum.conf b) perform update: yum -y update c) reinstall kernel. Here the instructions were vague, so I typed in... yum reinstall kernel-3.10.0 deriving the "3.10.0" label by the output of rpm -qa | grep kernel Yum got up to the point: Running transaction Installing : kernel-3.10.0-1127.el7.x86_64 1/1 at which point the process appeared to hang. No further output happened for five minutes. I opened a different terminal and entered "shutdown -r now". The result is an unbootable system. What did I do wrong? I must admit that there are multiple copies of advice on the mailing list, so perhaps I followed the wrong one? ------------------------------ So now, I tried the 'repair' mechanism, but couldn't make that work either. So, it was back to initial from-scratch install. David

CentOS 8 DNS resolution not working as expected
by isdtor 06 Aug '20

06 Aug '20

[root@localhost ~]# lsb_release -d Description: CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core) [root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by NetworkManager search subdomain.company.com company.com nameserver 1.2.3.4 nameserver 5.6.7.8 [root@localhost ~]# host foo foo.subdomain.company.com has address 1.2.3.4 [root@localhost ~]# host foo.subdomain Host foo.subdomain not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) [root@localhost ~]# host foo.subdomain.company.com foo.subdomain.company.com has address 1.2.3.4 [root@localhost ~]# The expected result is that the lookup for foo.subdomain works, like it does under CentOS < 8. I tested this also on a RHEL8 machine and followed https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/ht… to disable DNS processing by NM, but this did not change the outcome. How can the pre-CentOS 8 behaviour be restored?

CentOS Security Advisories OVAL feed??
by centos＠niob.at 05 Aug '20

05 Aug '20

Dear List, I have spent some time playing around with oscap and the RHEL OVAL feed (https://www.redhat.com/security/data/oval/v2/RHEL8/, also check Chapter 16 of the RHEL 8 Design Guide). Because I could not find an existing OVAL file for CentOS, I downloaded one of the RHEL8 files and managed to modify (eg. the rhel-8.1-e4s.oval.xml) it to make it work on a CentOS machine. Basically I just had to change the package signing key check to use the CentOS key and I had to replace the redhat-release RPM package name with "centos-release". Obviously, this would violate all kinds of rights if redistributed, due to the fact that the upstream vendor is named all over the place, but technically it "worked". On an internal system running a freshly updated CentOS 8.1 system I ended up with three errors, titled: * RHSA-2019:4269: container-tools:rhel8 security and bug fix update (Important) * RHSA-2019:3403: container-tools:rhel8 security, bug fix, and enhancement update (Important) * RHSA-2019:2799: nginx:1.14 security update (Important) This raises some questions (some of them connected), namely: Q1) There are no equivalent CESA advisories for those RHSA advisories: why is that? Note that there are also no equivalent CentOS packages to those mentioned in the RHSA advisories. (My guess: because, when the advisories where issued, Centos already had moved on to 8.2) Q2) Does this indicate a problem in the release process / handling of upstream updates on the side of the CentOS project? Were the advisories missed at the time of issuance? Q3) Does this indicate that only the latest CentOS (minor) release can be considered "secure" or "patched"? Q4) Is there a native OVAL file released from the CentOS project covering these issues? It could be extremely similar to the RHEL one, but it should take the answers to the above questions into account (eg. it could require the latests minor-release and there would only be one file for CentOS 8 if the answer to Q3 is "yes"). Q5) If the answer to the last question is "no": shouldn't there be such a resource? Thanks for any answers. peter

Too bad Ubuntu is enough different that makes it hard to switch. David

They both failed to reboot a few days ago. So perhaps whatever anti-boot bug hit Centos 8, also hit Centos 7. I can't tell what version got updated since the system simply fails to boot. I don't even get a grub screen. I'll have to rebuild the systems from scratch. David

8.2.2004 Quick recovery and fix for unbootable machines
by Alan McRae 03 Aug '20

03 Aug '20

This is a quick recovery and fix for the machines rendered unbootable after the grub2/shim yum update. It is written for CentOS 8.2.2004 but similar should work for any CentOS 8 or 7 as long as you get the correct shim file, that is, the one from the latest installation media. I am running on an x86_64 architecture (see uname -i). Please use the correct shim file for your architecture (shim-<arch>-15-11.el8.<arch>.rpm) I have tested this by breaking a machine and then recovering it. It works for me. I hope someone finds it useful. Let me know. Regards Alan HOW TO BOOT AN UNBOOTABLE MACHINE ================================= 1) Download a copy of rEFind. This is a UEFI boot manager. Burn it to a USB key. # wget -O refind.zip http://sourceforge.net/projects/refind/files/0.12.0/refind-flashdrive-0.12.… # unzip refind.zip # cd refind-flashdrive-0.12.0 # dd if=refind-flashdrive-0.12.0.img bs=4096 of=/dev/sdX (sdX is the device for your USB key, this will be erased, use the whole device use sdX not sdX1) 1800+0 records in 1800+0 records out 7372800 bytes (7.4 MB, 7.0 MiB) copied, 0.980893 s, 7.5 MB/s 2) Turn off secureboot in your UEFI hardware. 3) Boot the USB key. You should get a colourful screen with icons and a filename below. Use the left/right arrow keys to select the correct grubx64.efi. Hit space to boot. Your usual grub menu should appear and the system should boot normally. HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM ===================== 1) We need to downgrade the shim package. Now your system is running get an older copy of the correct shim package for your architecture from the CentOS installation media (e.g. CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-dvd1.iso) and install it. # mount CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-dvd1.iso /mnt # cd /mnt/BaseOS/Packages # cp shim-x64-15-11.el8.x86_64.rpm /root # cd /root # umount /mnt OR Get the package from a CentOS mirror: # cd /root # wget http://ucmirror.canterbury.ac.nz/linux/CentOS/8.2.2004/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Pac… 2) We can now reinstall the older shim package using yum. This will downgrade the package to the working version. # yum install shim-x64-15-11.el8.x86_64.rpm Last metadata expiration check: 2:11:11 ago on Sun 02 Aug 2020 11:31:06 NZST. Dependencies resolved. ==================================================================================================================================================================================== Package Architecture Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================================================================================================== Downgrading: shim-x64 x86_64 15-11.el8 @commandline 647 k Transaction Summary ==================================================================================================================================================================================== Downgrade 1 Package Total size: 647 k Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Running transaction check Transaction check succeeded.

Downgraded: shim-x64-15-11.el8.x86_64 Complete! 3) Your system should now boot normally. 4) add "exclude=shim*" to /etc/yum.conf to prevent the broken one being reinstalled. You should now be able to run 'yum update'. Remove the exclude= when a proper fix becomes available.

GUI boot failure after latest shim (etc) updates
by Fred Smith 03 Aug '20

03 Aug '20

This isn't the problem everyone else has been talking about, but... I made sure that yum update offered the packages Johnny said it should then updated. when I rebooted everything looked normal except it was taking a long time to bring up the login screen. Flipped over to ALT-F2 and saw a message about waiting for Plymouth boot screen to quit. I waited a while and it went up to (and past) 15 minutes. It said "no limit" so it apparently would have gone on forever. I couldn't get to a text-mode screen with ALT-f[2-6] so I went down to my Linux laptop to see if I could ssh into this box. Lo and behold, ssh worked fine. So I ran top and saw a plymouth (or plymouthd, I forget which) at the top of the list. killed it, came back upstairs and it was no longer spewing that message. now ALT-f2 gave me a text login, that I'm using now. I ran startx and after a long-seeming wait I get a desktop, but it is NOT my normal Mate desktop. Might be Gnome (since I installed a Centos Gnome system and retrofitted Mate from EPEL). Johnny had said we needed to make sure the kernel was installed along with the shim, et al. I looked at the list of files YUM wanted to install and saw some kernel files, so I assumed all was well. But maybe I missed something. What info can I provide to help figure this out? Or, what Kernel files should I force to be (re)installed? Also, I don't very often manually force a kernel install, but I know that some of the files are updates and some are installs, I'd appreciate a reminder of which is which so I can force it. Thanks in advance!

Sorry for being so ignorant, but I don't understand "just reinstall the kernel". I don't know how to translate that into a specific yum or rpm command. However, since this is a crash-and-burn system, I'm going back to a virgin install with netinstall of 7 2003. I'll let you know what the results are. --------------- On a Mac-Mini, which got hit by the bug in shim, I re-installed Centos 7 2003 from netinstall, selecting minimal as the software selection. The reboot worked fine. So, I next tried "yum -y update", noticed shim 7-8 got selected. However, at the completion of the update, I did a reboot and got a blank screen. No grub choices. Not good.

pgbouncer.pid Permissions on CentOS 7
by Bee.Lists 01 Aug '20

01 Aug '20

I’ve installed pgbouncer on CentOS7 and it’s reliant upon a .pid file: 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'logfile' = '/var/log/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.log' 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'logfile' = '/var/log/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.log' ok:1 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'pidfile' = '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid' 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'pidfile' = '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid' ok:1 However the service isn’t starting because the ownership of the parent directory, pgbouncer:pgbouncer results in some permissions issues: 2020-07-31 04:58:34.089 EDT [3682] FATAL could not open pidfile '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid': Permission denied /var/run/ has special flushing behaviour which I want to retain, but I need to get around this permission issue. Changing ownership on this directory just results in an automatic ownership set by the service, so that’s not an option. - Is there another location that can achieve this? - Is there any other way to solve this? I can’t find anything online, other than the same permissions issue for .pid files in this location. Cheers, Bee
