32-bit compat-gcc on 64-bit CentOS?
by Alan M. Evans 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

Ugh. One of our internal servers crashed so bad I just went out and bought a new machine to replace it. The old server was Pentium-4 based and running CentOS-5. When I installed CentOS on the new machine, I used the 64-bit version, partly because that habit is almost automatic nowadays, and partly because the new machine has 6GB of RAM, so 32-bit seemed not very appropriate. Anyway, I've managed to configure every one of the old server's many functions to match on the new server but one: I need the 32-bit version of compat-gcc-34. (Or at least I need to be able to compile 32-bit binaries with the already available version.) I can't seem to do this; am I just missing something? In retrospect, installing the 64-bit OS may have been foolish. But it's too late now. I've spent several days installing/loading/configuring this system to the point it's at now. It would be a pity to have to start over completely just to enable this one (very critical) function. -Alan

Failed to start new browser session: Error while launching browser on session null

Hope this email finds you well. I need your advice with something if you can help out. I have an RC serer (selenium rc) which is running on a centos 5.2 and another on a 5.4 machine. if i run it through X server, in other words if i run the server while connected to VNC. it works fine. but if i run it through ssh, it will start normally though upon test execution it will fail with the following error: 11:05:01.571 INFO - Preparing Firefox profile...

Centos+AD integration (uid/gid problems)
by nux＠li.nux.ro 30 Mar '11

30 Mar '11

Hi, I need to have several EL machines in an AD env. Joining the machines was easier than expected using authconfig, but what happens now is that blahdomain\blahuser gets assigned a different, random ID each time I use a different station. In AD I did specify the UID and GID in the UNIX Attributes tab for blahuser, but it gets totally ignored; so do the other values (for home, shell etc). Ideally I'd have all the users assigned a static uid and gid from AD and have /home on all machines mounted from NFS; but right now if I log in with blahuser to another machine my $HOME is owned by another random id. Sugesstions? What am I missing? I'm quite a noob with Windows :) Cheers

OT: virtual host for apache/tomcat servers
by James Pifer 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

I hope someone here can answer my question so I don't have to join another mailing list, on too many as it is... I have the following installed: httpd-2.2.3-43.el5.centos.3 tomcat5-5.5.23 I have a small jsp app that I can hit through apache like: http://www.mydomain.com/tomcat/myapp.jsp So tomcat in the url above is the apache proxy address for the tomcat server. I want to setup a virtual host in apache to automatically load this app if I type: http://myapp.mydomain.com I'm having trouble figuring this out. If I try to setup a virtual host, apache complains that /tomcat is not a valid DocumentRoot. Looking at tons of docs, but not seeing the solution. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, James

centos server network speed check???
by mcclnx mcc 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

we have several servers on same rack and servers are all inside firewall. Centos version from 4.X to 5.X. sometime the connection are very slow (compare to servers on other racks also inside firewall). we discuss with network engineer he ask us use "ping" and traceroute" to check. Both tools response time are good but if we connect through application like Web browser, database, or DELL OPMN tool. The response time is very very slow. This situation normally last 4 to 5 hours then it back to normal. Does there has way to check "real" network response time so we can show to network engineer. Otherwise they always say "no problem". Thanks.

Sorry, that was just my impression from previous posts. I guess I have that wrong. Maybe I am confusing the reluctance to take donations at the moment with commercial sponsorship. Thanks for correcting me. Couple of questions, then.... What is the average current time commitment per week, i.e. man hours that is currently volunteered by the core developers? What would that need to increase to, to significantly reduce release times (which I think was the overall goal)? What would the *market rate* be for the skills required? Just to give a rough figure to work with and shouldn't be related to any particular person's current day job. Thanks in advance, Ian.

Hello, I was trying to install CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-DVD tonight and kept on getting this same error and i have no idea what is causing this annoyance and not letting me complete the install because as soon as this error is produced it says this a bug and should be filed. Before I file a bug report i would like to know if anyone else ran into this and would mind pointing me in the right direction or a link to the solution. The full output is: http://pastebin.com/eEYZigrz i am hoping someone would be able to help, because i have no clue what is going on except that it is failing on trying to remove a volume group.

Verify tomcat config
by lhecking＠users.sourceforge.net 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

I'm going to retire an old RHEL3 server and move the services to CentOS5. In particular, the web server is giving me a headache. On the old box, there's a hacked-up httpd/mod_jk/tomcat setup, and CentOS is perfect for the new box because the required components are included and the whole setup "just works" straight from installation. There seems to be surprisingly little documentation or how-tos on how to migrate from the above setup to httpd/mod_proxy_ajp/tomcat. I believe I have it working correctly on a test machine, but am looking for someone to look over the config to make sure it's correct and complete. The desired setup is: - httpd receives all requests - httpd processes all requests for static content - httpd passes all requests for dynamic content to tomcat Most examples I found seem to assume that all queries, including static, are pased on to tomcat. To implement the correct behaviour, I came up with this conf.d fragment: <LocationMatch ".*WEB-INF.*"> AllowOverride None deny from all </LocationMatch> <Proxy *> AddDefaultCharset Off Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPreserveHost on ProxyPassMatch ^(.*\.jsp)$ ajp://localhost:8009/$1 The second bit was much harder to figure out - point tomcat to httpd's DocumentRoot. I came up with the following snippet: use the included /etc/tomcat/server-minimal.xml as server.xml and make the following change: --- server-minimal.xml 2010-10-11 00:16:41.000000000 +0100 +++ server.xml 2011-03-20 01:48:12.000000000 +0000 @@ -18,7 +18,9 @@ <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost"> <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm" resourceName="UserDatabase" /> - <Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" /> + <Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps"> + <Context path="" docBase="/var/www/html" reloadable="true" /> + </Host> </Engine> </Service> Any comments/suggestions? Would I be better of to stick with mod_jk even on CentOS?

Installing php-mcrypt
by Todd Cary 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

It has been 6 years since I set up my Linux server and have hardly had to touch it in all of those years other than running yum update, so I ma rusty in some of the fine details (especially at 72). I located a source for the php-mcrypt rpm (php-mcrypt-5.1.6-15.el5.centos.1.i386.rpm), however, isn't there an easier method to get and install the appropriate rpm - other than downloading it then running rpm? And when should I use yum rather than rpm? For those of you that use Linux daily, these are very simple question, and for that please accept my apologies.

KVM has improved quite a bit, and the management tools work well. One thing that requires a bit of skill is getting bridging configured (which I simply did by hand from the RHEL-6 documentation). I'm happy with the result, and see no reason to replace the underlying SL-6 Host distro. SL-6 as the Host is rather slow to shut down gracefully and reboot, because it hibernates the Guest OSs, one at a time, rather than just killing them. Hibernation takes a while to write out to disk if you've assigned a lot of RAM to the Guests. Bootup has to restore the saved state, so that's a bit slow too. But it works very well. I use partitionable RAID arrays for the Guests, and assign a "raw" md device to each one rather than using the 'filesystem-in-a-file' method. It seems to be a bit faster, but there's a learning curve to understanding how it works. One thing I found a bit annoying is the very long time it takes for a Guest to format its filesystems on the RAID-6 md device assigned to it. That's mostly due to array checksum overhead. RAID-10 would be a *lot* faster but somewhat less robust ... you pick what's best for your own situation. Chuck

Right, so rather than money for CentOS to hire its own employees, you'd be looking for corporate sponsor to donate their employee time, i.e. full time person/people. I was more thinking of the former, but I think that was a long shot at best. Oh well hopefully someone might come forward.

My new server
by Timothy Murphy 27 Mar '11

27 Mar '11

I bought a very cheap server yesterday - an HP ProLiant micro server for 160 euro (280 euro with 120 cashback, for some reason). But I was surprised when I opened the box to find it didn't come with keyboard or mouse, and doesn't have the old keyboard/mouse sockets, but requires USB versions. Is that the norm nowadays? Is it possible to convert the old keyboard/mouse plugs? Also there is no CD drive. But there are extensive instructions (on a CD!) about how to instal RHEL-5.5. I'm not complaining, just surprised. I got it as a fall-back for my aging server. The ProLiant is incredibly quiet, at least by comparison. One last thing - there is only one ethernet socket. This surprised me a little, as I can't see how it can be used as a server, without adding a second ethernet input? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

You get what you pay for. Yes ps/2 plugs are a thing of the past. Servers have for the last 5 or so years been usb only. Usually with a usb in the front as well as in the back. There are usb/ps2 converters but usb/mouse is very cheap. Your adapter would most likely cost the same or more. Lack of cd drive - sounds like you bought too cheap if you need that. Alternatively, pxe boot and install that way. One nic is also quite common. It depends on what you need the server to do.

The delays on CentOS 5.6 are causing EPEL incompatibilities
by Nico Kadel-Garcia 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

There are significant components of the upstream 5.6 release which are stuck behind the CentOS 5.6 release process, but are now incorporated in EPEL 5 components. In particular, the "php53" package is now necessary for the "drupal6" EPEL components, due to the long out of date PHP 5.1 in the default upstream vendor's codebase. I see that some of these components are available in the "testing" repository at http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/CentOS-Testing.repo. But this isn't published with centos-release. fasttrack is. Would it be reasonable to push these "testing" components over to "fasttrack"? Given our "upstream vendor's" policy of making all the updates available to all the previous releases in their main "channels", I'm not sure there's any reason not to present them, at least to the fasttrack" channel, and migrate them from "fasttrack" to "updates" as necessary. Other components for such fasttrack publication might include bind97, which some CentOS users have been asking for.

What exactly is "production" use? (I know DEV, UAT, blah, bla, tla etc been there done that and I don't have the T shirt - nobody gave me one) Always with warm regards only, Rajagopal

Mounting an external USB drive
by Todd Cary 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

With Centos 5.5, my external USB drive appears to self mount in that the icon appears on the desktop and when I double click on it, the files are there. However, I recall that I need to make an entry in the fstab as well as some other changes. When I do a # /sbin/fdisk -l I learn that the device is /dev/sda1 and the system is HPFS/NTFS I am not sure what to enter into the file system table, fstab and if other entries/directories need to be made.

Default permissions for creating a new user
by Todd Cary 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

I know this is a Linux 101 question, however I am unable to locate the answer in my O'Reilly Linux book: how to set the default for permissions when creating a new user. The default for the GUI in my newly installed Centos 5.5 is 700. I usually use 774. And when root creates a new directory, is there a way to have a default there too? Lastly, if root or someone with root privileges creates a sub-directory, is there a setting so that the sub-directory will have the owner/group and permissions as the parent directory?

How to limit ftp users to just view their directory
by Todd Cary 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

I am in the process of bring up Centos 5.5. My ftp server is vsftp. When I add a user (e.g. brian), the "brian" directory is owned by "brian" and is in the "brian" group with 700 permissions. However, using a FTP client, the user "brian" can view all of the directories. I do not see any directive in vsftpd.conf to limit this. What have I missed?

Can't build PHP 5.3.6 with MySQL 5.5.10 on CentOS-4

Hello, I'm trying to build PHP 5.3.6 in a CentOS-4 server with MySQL 5.5.10 and I get this error: //usr/include/mysql/my_config_i386.h:610:1: warning: "PACKAGE_NAME" redefined /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:100: error: syntax error before "pthread_rwlock_t" /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:100: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:107: error: syntax error before '}' token /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h: In function `inline_mysql_rwlock_init': /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:683: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type/ Full build log is available at: http://pastebin.com/NBfB5PzZ This only happens on CentOS-4 with GCC 3.4.6, I can build PHP 5.3.6 with 5.5.10 in CentOS-5 without problems.

Remote-logging nginx? (or other non-syslog-enabled stuff)
by Dr. Ed Morbius 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

I'm looking for suggestions as to a good general method of remote-logging services such as nginx or anything else which doesn't support syslog natively. I'm aware that there's an nginx patch, and we're evaluating this. It may be the way we fly. However there are other tools which may not have a patch for which remote logging would be useful. If there's a general soution (something as naive as tailing local logs and firing these off on a regular basis). I've heard rumors of a Perl script used for apache logs. Also that rsyslog supports logging from local files to a remote syslog server, possibly. I'm RTFMing on that.

Apache/Active Directory authentication
by Dvorkin, Asya 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out the best way to accomplish below project and would appreciate your input. I need to setup a web page on CentOS with Active Directory authentication. So far I've accomplished the following: - Setup httpd.conf to successfully authenticate against AD by passing my username/passwd. <Directory /var/www/html/secure> Allow from All AuthType Basic AuthName "Ldap test area" AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on AuthLDAPURL "ldap://server:389/OU=OU=name,OU=area,DC=core,DC=test,DC=edu?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)" AuthLDAPBindDN "username@core" AuthLDAPBindPassword password require valid-user </Directory> - In addition, I used LikeWise software and was able to successfully join AD. I was wondering if there is a way to do http authentication without passing my username/password considering server is already binded to AD, thus authenticated. Would I be able to utilize PAM authentication for this purpose? # httpd -v Server version: Apache/2.2.3 Server built: Aug 30 2010 12:28:40 # more /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.5 (Final) Thank you!

How does Linux Repair actually work
by Todd Cary 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

Thanks to the help of folks on this forum, I now have my Centos 4 box up and working, however I do have a question on how the repair actually worked. After starting the Linux Repair, the process "found my installed Linux". Some of you will remember that I had accidentally erased the /boot and /boot/grub directories, but I had most of the files saved (not the symbolic links) and put them back into the directories *and* I did run a rpm reinstall. When Linux Repair "found the installed Linux", did it create a new /boot and /boot/grub *or* did it just use what I had put there? [I am now downloading Centos 5.5 which I'll install on a new drive and then face the challenges of moving my backup data to the new OS] Todd -- Ariste Software Petaluma, CA 94952 http://www.aristesoftware.com

Managing users and passwords
by Todd Cary 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

I plan to make my current Centos 4 HD a slave and install Centos 5.5 on a new HD (master). Then comes the challenge of of moving all of my /home/"user" data to the new master. I have some preliminary questions: Is this a good strategy for installing Centos 5.5: keep the Centos 4 on a slave disk? Will the Centos 5.5 detect the slave disk (Centos 4)? Is there a way to move the users, groups and passwords from one disk to the new Centos 5.5? IT departments must have servers go down or want to install a new version of Linux and have the same challenges. Todd -- Ariste Software Petaluma, CA 94952 http://www.aristesoftware.com

CUPS drivers for wide printer
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

I found the .ppd for our brand new HP z3200ps 44" printer - a coworker got me the one from the Mac, and I edited it to separate out the Mac-only commands (there's even an #ifdef in ppd language), and it prints; I don't even need postprocessing, apparently... except that even though it knows how wide the paper is (in this case, a 24" wide roll that came with the printer), it refuses to print a picture that's horizontally wide horizontally, it insists on doing it vertically. That is ========= saturn ========= according to print preview, wants to print || || || saturn || || || Anyone here worked with a wide-format printer, and/or have a suggestion as to what I need - is it something in the .ppd, or do I need a post-processor, or...?

Some relevant information
by Sam Trenholme 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

Hello everyone: * DNS does not have a "refresh rate". In DNS, the person running the domain determines what the "refresh rate" (it's called TTL in DNS) for their records is; for example, Google has a TTL of "once per hour" and my domains (maradns.org, etc.) have a TTL of one day. * As mentioned before, Scientific Linux 6.0 is out. What hasn't been mentioned here is that while SL 5.6 hasn't come out, 5.6 security updates are being backported to SL 5.5. Ditto with SL 4 (no 4.9 but security patches look current) Take care everyone, - Sam

ESXi 4.1 and Cluster Fencing
by Machin, Greg 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hi. I'm new to configuring Clustering . The CentOS 5.5 guest machines will be running on ESXi 4.1 . I'm configuring the clustering using "Conga" . I see that there is support for using ESX to do the fencing. The problem I have is that the guest machines are not allowed to have access the "management network" as per security policies. The guest machines don't no access to the management IPs of any of the hardware as per security policies. How should I implement fencing.

Affordable KVM over IP switch
by Michael B Allen 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hello, Are there any KVM over IP switches that are not thousands of dollars? Ideally a 3-4 port switch for a few hundred seems reasonable to me. Mike -- Michael B Allen Java Active Directory Integration http://www.ioplex.com/

ACPI errors during bootup
by sri 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hi, Am trying to build SMP kernel. Took kernel-2.6.18-194.src.rpm, extracted, rpmbuilded with SMP option. Successfully compile the new kernel and when using that kernel to boot up, following errors were shown up(highlighted in bold & red color): My kernel config file has ACPI and PCI configs enabled. Any pointers to what caused the problem are appreciated. ****************************** ********************************************************************************* BIOS-e820: 0000000000010000 - 000000000009e000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000000009e000 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000000e0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000001fee9000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000001fee9000 - 0000000020000000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000fff00000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 0MB HIGHMEM available. 510MB LOWMEM available.

Duplicate Mails
by Ralph Angenendt 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hi, due to some idiot not being able to configure his Exchange server correctly, this list has been swamped by loads of duplicate mails. There were still several hundreds of mails awaiting delivery to this list. I have removed all of those from the mail queue - so if you are missing a mail you have sent, please resubmit it, it probably was lost while I cleaned the queue as I had no way of telling those apart from the reinjections. I am sorry that I had to do that, but I am sure that you'd rather resubmit than receiving close to 1000 duplicate mails. The user reinjecting the mails has been identified and shot^Wbanned from the mailing list, he cannot resubscribe. Apologies if this caused any inconveniences. Regards, Ralph Angenendt

The overhead and instabilities of installing the components and configuring these features is adventuresome. Simply explaining to a client's inventory management that *they have to record the MAC addresses when they receive the hardware* so that the DHCP setups and network setups can be done gracefully has been awkward. For a few servers in a personal, or small business rack, it's not a big problem. But even the big hardware vendors can be very confusing to learn all the interface tricks and configurations for, and in a mixed environment it can get out of hand really, really fast. I've had a devil of a time demonstrating, and explaining to clients, why they need these tools, right up to the point when they say "but, but, but, I can do that with the Windows servers!!!!" and showing them, on the purchase orders and the emails, where they paid for that service and where they refused to allow me to install the drivers because that "wasn't part of the project". This has actually gotten *MUCH* better with "our favorite upstream verndor's" 6.0 operating system, and I'm looking forward to CentOS 6.0 with baited breath. The really cool features of IPMI have matured a lot, and in some cases no hardware vendor drivers are needed, It Just Works with the basic system installation. Unfortunately, I don't have a rack of hosts to test this on this week, or I'd suggest it.

Need help in "repairing" the booting of my Linux 4 server
by Todd Cary 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

As I shared on this forum last week, I did a bad boo boo when I erased my /boot/ directory without a backup - all of the things I caution other NOT to do. Nevertheless, after trying to put things back in order, today I decided to try a reboot and I get a GRUB prompt. Next I have put my Linux 4 disk in the CD drive and have selected the "linux repair" mode which has put me into the /mnt/sysimage with the # prompt. That is as far as I have gone since I am in uncharted waters. Help! It, the linux repair, has found and identified that I have a Linux system...what should I try next?

mdraid on top of mdraid
by Emmanuel Noobadmin 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Is it possible or will there be any problems with using mdraid on top of mdraid? specifically say mdraid 1/5 on top of mdraid multipath. e.g. 4 storage machines exporting iSCSI targets via two different physical network switches then use multipath to create md block devices then use mdraid on these md block devices The purpose being the storage array surviving a physical network switch failure.

> Since your exporting the storage as iSCSI, the host machine will see > it as a raw disk, irrespective of how it's setup on the exported > server. So, yes, you can do this. Sorry for my ambiguity, I meant that mdadm would be on the host machine. e.g. Using just a 2 node, raid 1 situation Storage 1 -> Disk exported on 192.168.1.10, 192.168.2.10 Storage 2 -> Disk exported on 192.168.1.20, 192.168.2.20 Host -> mdadm multipath md0 = 192.168.1.10, 192.168.2.10 -> mdadm multipath md1 = 192.168.1.20, 192.168.2.20 ---> mdadm raid 1 md2 using md0 md1

The question about something - was it the md? - original seems as though it's shown up more than twice today, with the same timestamp, I think.

syslog.conf - how to redirect messages by a program name?
by Alexander Farber 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Hello, the "man syslog.conf" explains how to filter syslog messages by facility (auth, authpriv, cron, daemon, kern, ... ) or by priority (debug, info, notice, warning, ...). But how could I redirect messages by a program name, like "drupal" or "php"? For example I have in /var/log/messages: Mar 20 04:20:44 mysite drupal: http://mysite|1300594844|page not found|66.249.66.193|http://mysite/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-7133-1300462418.png||0||sites/default/files/pictures/picture-71333-1300462418.png Mar 20 04:20:50 mysite drupal: http://www.mysite|1300594850|page not found|93.158.148.31|http://www.mysite/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=42639&p=165661&sid=73944439da6ca3054a40f464ce97a628||0||viewtopic.php but I would like them to go under /var/log/drupal (and I'll rotate them later by adding a file to /etc/logrotate.d ....) Regards Alex

I want to create bash script to have a zip copy from a website running on linux /var/www/htdocs/* local on the same box on different directory I am thinking to do a local backup using crontab (snapshot my web) tar -cvzf /tmp/website-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M).tgz /var/www/htdocs/* This command will create a file /tmp/website-20110101-1459.tgz I want it run on daily basis and to keep the last 5days backup on the box and remove older version than 5days. Can you point me out. Thanks madunix

task md1_resync:9770 blocked for more than 120 seconds and OOM errors
by Alexander Farber 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Hello, yesterday night I had a problem with my server located at a hoster (strato.de). I couldn't ssh to it and over the remote serial console I saw "out of memory" errors (sorry, don't have the text). Then I had reinstall CentOS 5.5/64 bit + all my setup (2h work), because I have a contract with a social network and they will shut down my little card game if it is not reponding. Now the server seems to work ok, but I'm worried about those /var/log/message: kernel: INFO: task md1_resync:9770 blocked for more than 120 seconds. kernel: "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. kernel: md1_resync D ffff81011edba820 0 9770 55 9768 (L-TLB) kernel: ffff810083259d70 0000000000000046 0000000000000000 ffff81011ea66e0c kernel: ffff81011ea66c0c 000000000000000a ffff81011ccc27a0 ffff81011edba820 kernel: 000011d56f2a0b28 000000000000100f ffff81011ccc2988 000000028008b4d7 kernel: Call Trace: kernel: [<ffffffff800a0947>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 kernel: [<ffffffff8021af66>] md_do_sync+0x1d8/0x833 kernel: [<ffffffff8008ca47>] enqueue_task+0x41/0x56 kernel: [<ffffffff8008cab2>] __activate_task+0x56/0x6d kernel: [<ffffffff8008c897>] dequeue_task+0x18/0x37 kernel: [<ffffffff80062ff8>] thread_return+0x62/0xfe kernel: [<ffffffff800a0b5f>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e kernel: [<ffffffff800a0947>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 kernel: [<ffffffff8021b93a>] md_thread+0xf8/0x10e kernel: [<ffffffff800a0947>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 kernel: [<ffffffff8021b842>] md_thread+0x0/0x10e kernel: [<ffffffff8003296e>] kthread+0xfe/0x132 kernel: [<ffffffff8005dfb1>] child_rip+0xa/0x11 kernel: [<ffffffff800a0947>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 kernel: [<ffffffff80032870>] kthread+0x0/0x132 kernel: [<ffffffff8005dfa7>] child_rip+0x0/0x11 kernel: The /var/log/mcelog is empty. # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md1 20G 1.4G 18G 8% / /dev/md3 176G 754M 166G 1% /var /dev/md0 993M 30M 913M 4% /boot /dev/md2 263G 352M 250G 1% /home tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev/shm Does anybody please have an advice? :-( (Besides "contact or change" your hoster, because it doesn't work).

respawning apache on centos
by Dave Stevens 19 Mar '11

19 Mar '11

Hi I have a centos instance on a host where uname -a shows: Linux cl28810.com 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.028stab079.2PAE #1 SMP Fri Dec 17 19:34:22 MSK 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Periodically my ssh access and http access slow dramatically and I get out of memory when trying to do rudimentary stuff like ls. I've been advised by tech support to try service httpd restart. This works. But the first thing that happens after the command is issued is that the load goes up to about 15 then slowly declines to a more typical figure, in the range feom .1 to 1.3, which is fine. It takes several minutes before the site is really usable. I now have 22 apache instances out of 66 total processes, which seems excessive. One site hosted, running drupal 7, 1.5G RAM lots of disk spece, two cores, Xeon based host. I don't know if this is an apache issue or CentOS related or what. Ideas? Debugging I can do?

httpd cannot serve web page on port 2812 (for Monit)
by Rogelio 19 Mar '11

Might there be anything CentOS related on why I cannot access the Monit GUI system on http://box-running-monit.com:2812 ? I am using a very basic /etc/monit.conf config, but I cannot get it serve the web page on my box The service start and stops fine (e.g. "/etc/init.d/monit start"), and I have it set to listen to port 2812 in the "/etc/monit.conf file" (so far, kept the default) e.g. in "/etc/monit.d/monitrc" file set daemon 60 set logfile syslog facility log_daemon set mailserver localhost set mail-format { from: monit(a)server1.example.com } set alert me(a)mydomain.com set httpd port 2812 check process sshd with pidfile /var/run/sshd.pid start program "/etc/init.d/sshd start" stop program "/etc/init.d/sshd stop" if failed port 22 protocol ssh then restart if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout (I also enabled the 2812 port using CentOS's "system-config-securitylevel" command, which added the right IPtables entries, which I see okay on "iptables -L") -- Also on LinkedIn?

Safe/sane tempfile creation?
by Dr. Ed Morbius 19 Mar '11

19 Mar '11

I'm used to Debian-based distros which have a tempfile(1) utility for safely and sanely creating temporary files. There isn't a comperable utility for RHEL/CentOS systems. I've been exercising Google-fu looking for a good robust tempfile generation idiom, but haven't turned one up yet. Hence this appeal to the lazyweb. -- Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist / | Robot Wrangler / Staff Psychologist | When you seek unlimited power Krell Power Systems Unlimited | Go to Krell!

Cannot %include in CentOS 5.5 kickstart
by whitivery 19 Mar '11

19 Mar '11

I've previously used includes in CentOS 4.4 and they worked fine. But in CentOS 5.5, trying to specify a driver disk via an include does not work. If I instead specify it directly, it loads fine. When it fails (because it can't see the disk drive - needs the driver disk to see the hard disk), in Console 2 I can see that /tmp/drvdisk exists and has the line I wrote to it. I see nothing that looks wrong in any log or kickstart file/fragment in /tmp. Any ideas? Here's my complete kickstart to show/test this: # Minimal Kickstart test for CentOS 5.5 to show %include problem url --url=http://10.0.4.157/cblr/links/CentOS5.5-i386 text lang en_US.UTF-8 keyboard us timezone --utc America/New_York install bootloader --location=mbr clearpart --all --initlabel network --device eth0 --bootproto dhcp firewall --disabled selinux --disabled rootpw --iscrypted \$1\$x6z.qvwE\$7Zg9g1rCEgvOBoA7Oo/HF1 zerombr authconfig --useshadow --enablemd5 part /boot --fstype ext3 --size 100 --asprimary part / --fstype ext3 --size 1 --grow --asprimary part /var --fstype ext3 --size 10000 part swap --recommended # This does not work %include /tmp/drvdisk # This works #driverdisk --source=nfs:10.0.4.157:/srv/cobbler/RHEL5.5_x86_402_409_410_DD.img %packages @base @core %pre --erroronfail echo "driverdisk --source=nfs:10.0.4.157:/srv/cobbler/RHEL5.5_x86_402_409_410_DD.img" > /tmp/drvdisk # (end of kickstart file)

rpm split
by Janez Kosmrlj 18 Mar '11

18 Mar '11

Hi, I have a custom rpm for our application. The problem is that it grew old and fat. It's about 30 MB. So i would like to split it into two parts. One big part that almost never changes and one smaller part that is changed more frequently. But i don't know how to write the spec file so a simple yum update will install both packages and it won't create any problems. Any suggestions?

Replace NIS by Active Directory
by MOKRANI Rachid 18 Mar '11

Hi, I'm looking a wiki or share experience for replace NIS authentication by an existing Active directory Server (W2003). The problem is on the management of id and gid. How to move 1000 actual NIS users to AD ? How to keep the same id and gid for this 1000 users ? What's happen with nfs linux server and acess with gid and/id ? Use the same user/password for linux and Windows clients authentification? We test a solution who work very well. It's Centrify comercial software http://www.centrify.com/directcontrol/overview.asp . But we are looking a freeware solution. (kerberos ? openldap ? pam ? ...) Does someone has already successfully replace NIS by Ad authentification with freeware solution ?

Don't you think there is something slightly farcical about posting messages suggesting people should stop posting messages? > V5.6 will be done when it's done, okay? I don't think the OP did ask when 5.6 would be ready. What he/she said, IIRC, was that Karanbir had suggested that 5.6 would be out last week, and he/she was asking if there had been a problem. This seems a perfectly reasonable question to me. Personally, I am very grateful to Karanbir and his accomplices for what I find an excellent OS, and I don't really care when 5.6 or 6 come out, as the present version works perfectly well for me.

Watching a directory
by Jason Slack-Moehrle 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Hi All, I am thinking about an idea, but it requires that I be able to watch several directories for files that are added, deleted or maybe changed. Let start with adding files. What tools are available for me to watch a directory. In an example, if a file is added to a directory I want to run a shell script that will do some conversation on the file to produce a second copy. I have the shell scripting down, I am not sure how to watch, realize change and kick off the script with the parameters of the directory and what was added. Would anyone have thoughts? -Jason

tar exclude question
by Rainer Traut 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Hi List, hope this is not too offtopic, but this bothers me and my backup. My backups are tar jobs in cron, eg: 20 23 * * * tar -zcf /mnt/backupInternalHosts/backup/backup.tar.gz /etc /root /home && touch /tmp/state_backup-backup This always sends me an unwanted email with: tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I consider this a bug because this informal message is printed to error out? Ok, I rewrite my tar job to get around this: tar -zc -f /mnt/backupInternalHosts/backup/backup.tar.gz -C / etc root home && touch /tmp/state_backup-backup Fine this works, but problems arise when I try to exclude things (example under /tmp/foo): $ mkdir dir1 dir2 dir1/dir2 $ touch dir1/dir2/importantFile $ tar -cvf tarfile.tar --exclude=dir2 -C /tmp/foo/ dir1 dir2 dir1/ Because the exclude pattern matches under dir1 my important File is not backed up. The problem is, I cannot specify the exclude pattern to match only /tmp/foo/dir2 , can I? Thx Rainer

Virtual Machine Manager Doesn't see vmx flag
by David McGuffey 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Finished installing CentOS 5.5 x86_64 on a new Dell tower workstation that has a quad core Intel processor and 8 GB of ram. BIOS has hardware virtualization support enabled. /proc/cpuinfo shows that all four cores have the vmx flag present. I applied a lot of the National Security Agency guide for securing Red Hat Linux 5, testing the key applications I need as I went. At the end of the process I bring up VMM and it claims that the hardware doesn't support full virtualization. I'm going to go back through the NSA guide today looking for settings that might have an impact. My goal is to find and back out 1 or more settings rather than start from scratch with a full reload. Any ideas where I should focus my efforts? Dave M

CentOS 5.5 does not recognise SAS drives with LSI 1068E Controller
by Peter Peltonen 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

I need to do a new CentOS net install on a new server having the Supermicro X7DVL-3 motherboard: http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/xeon1333/5000V/X7DVL-3.cfm Based on that info I assume the board having a "8x SAS Ports via LSI 1068E Controller". We received the server with 3 drives + 1 spare as hw RAID-5 preinstalled. During bootup I see that the drives are initialised and everything seems ok. The issue I am facing is that when trying to install CentOS no hard drives are recognised. I am a bit confused as others have reported CentOS 5.3 and 5.4 working "out of the box" with the same controller: http://www.linux-archive.org/centos/287219-installing-centos-5-4-64bit-serv… So I assumed that the megaraid_sas driver shipped with CentOS should support the controller? What confuses me also is the output of lspci: MegaRAID SAS 3208 ELP Does this mean its not the 1068E controller inside but something else? Or CentOS misidentifies it? So I assume the controller is not supported and I need a binary driver for it. For 1068e it should be: http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/products_home/standard_product_ics/sas_ics/… and the driver I need is inside the file mptlinux-4.26.00.00-1-rhel5.5.x86_64.dd.gz But how do I go applying this driver during installation as the server has no floppy drive? And what happens if I get the driver installed and then the server's kernel is updated? Do I need reinstall the driver somehow? Best regards, Peter

skype?
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Well, at the urging of a friend who wants to talk face-to-face, I tried to install skype to my system at home (current CentOS 5.5). Got the fedora rpm; yum installed a library, then localinstalled skype, which is the current 2.1 beta. ldd shows an entry to linux-gate, which I don't have installed (or at least rpm tells me I don't). I try to run skype, and it complains about the version of glibc, even though I do have libstdc++.so.6. So, does anyone have any suggestions on a) how to get 2.1 beta working, or b) where I can find the *non* beta previous version...? Thanks in advance. mark "clues for the poor!"

I don't see this behaviour in the mandriva rpm files that i cut out and used. Next stop is getting SELinux to play nicely with it. It is also just another bit of software that i have to track manually though would be much happier to have it in the RPM database as my "check for updates" bookmarked tab group is getting longer and more painful to use. mike
