Kernel 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6 boot fail
by Kwan Lowe 03 Aug '13

03 Aug '13

Hello All: I installed 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 today and had some boot issues. After rebooting, the system locked immediately after the Asus motherboard logo. I thought at first that it was a hardware issue because it didn't appear that grub even loaded. I wasn't even able to get into the BIOS to change the boot order so it appeared that it was a hardware issue. I reset the MB BIOS and rebooted, which allowed me to get into the BIOS. Everything looked normal. I then tried to boot and the same issue. I repeated the BIOS clear and this time got to grub and let it load the latest kernel (2.6.32-358.14.1.el6). It hung again. I repeated the BIOS clear, go to the grub screen, selected the previous kernel and everything was fine. Once I got to the OS, I removed the "rhgb quiet" from grub.conf from the newest kernel. Rebooted. Hung again immediately after loading. The weird thing is that I couldn't just power down and get back to grub; I had to clear the BIOS again before I could even load grub to select the previous kernel. Anyone else experiencing issues with the latest kernel? Any idea why it seems to even corrupt the BIOS?

I use an appliance from Smartvue - the Smartvue S9. They have a very small version - the S9i - now that has 128GB of SSD for ~$700 that will handle 10 cameras. http://smartvue.com/products/index.html I have been running the S9 version for a little over a year with only a few issues. It's been very reliable and easy to use. It actually runs Fedora under the hood! Shawn

howto avoid Samba
by Johan Vermeulen 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

Dear All, I'm replacing an older OpenSuse server with a new Centos6.4 server. So far that goes ok, except that the OpenSuse server is also a samba server with ldap connection. Since I replaced all but 2 machines in the building from Windows to Linux, I was hoping not to install Samba on the new server. ( And also because I can't get it to work on Centos. ) I saw a post on the mailinglist some time ago about Windows and Nfs, but find that Nfs is supported on Win7 Ultimate but not on Professional edition. I apologise if another way was mentioned in this post and I missed it. I googled and tried Omni-Nfs, but could not get a connection working. I installed TightVnc on Windows and that connects ok to the Centos server, but shared clipboard does not work. Can anyone point met to a useful solution to enable file sharing to Win7 Pro without Samba? Many thanks. greetings, J. -- Johan Vermeulen IT-medewerker Caw De Kempen Opensource Software is the future.

Firewire on Centos-6 ???
by Fred Smith 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

Hi all! I'm trying to use my first-ever firewire device, and just OOB I'm not getting very far, so advice would be appreciated. When I plug in the device I see some entries in /var/log/messages: Jul 27 14:50:30 fcshome kernel: firewire_core: phy config: card 0, new root=ffc1, gap_count=5 Jul 27 14:50:31 fcshome kernel: firewire_core: created device fw1: GUID 0003f300118123f9, S100 lsmod says this: # lsmod | grep fire firewire_ohci 24695 0 firewire_core 50151 1 firewire_ohci crc_itu_t 1717 2 udf,firewire_core I have these 1394-related packages installed: # yum list installed | grep 1394 libavc1394.x86_64 0.5.3-9.1.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201207061011.x86_64/6.3 libdc1394.x86_64 2.1.2-3.4.el6 @base libdc1394-docs.x86_64 2.1.2-3.4.el6 @base libdc1394-tools.x86_64 2.1.2-3.4.el6 @base libraw1394.x86_64 2.0.4-1.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201207061011.x86_64/6.3 lspci says this: 03:0e.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) the only mention of 1394 that I see in /etc/modprobe.d is this (grep output): dist.conf:install eth1394 /bin/true which, to the limited extent of my understanding shouldn't be a problem. I'm trying to use Kino. when I start it up and click the "capture" tab on the right I get a warning in the bar at the bottom of the Kino window that reads: WARNING: raw1394 kernel module not loaded or failure to read/write /dev/raw/1394! which makes sense since there ins't a /dev/raw/1394. however, according to this: # find /dev -name \*firewire\* -print /dev/.udev/db/firewire:fw1 /dev/.udev/db/firewire:fw0 there are two firewire device nodes. Should Kino be using one of those device nodes instead of /dev/raw/1394? Or if not, does anyone have further advice (preferably helpful advice) ?? thanks!

Django 1.5 Upgrade
by Larry Martell 01 Aug '13

01 Aug '13

Anyone here using django on centos. On my Mac, running python 2.7, I upgraded from 1.4 to 1.5 by doing this: rm -rf /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django Followed by python setup.py install in the dir I untar-ed Django-1.5.1 to. This all worked fine. On a Centos system running python 2.6 I did: rm -rf /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django followed by the setup.py install. My django app is working, and appears to be running 1.5, however anytime I use manage.py (for collectstatic or syncdb or test, for example) I get these messages: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py:465: DeprecationWarning: The 'execute_manager' function is deprecated, you likely need to update your 'manage.py'; please see the Django 1.4 release notes (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.4/) DeprecationWarning) /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py:409: DeprecationWarning: The 'setup_environ' function is deprecated, you likely need to update your 'manage.py'; please see the Django 1.4 release notes (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.4/) DeprecationWarning) So it seems I still have some 1.4 stuff around. I don't get this on my Mac. How can I get rid of these messages?

Kernel 3.10 and CentOS 5
by Stephen Harris 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I have a Centos 5 machine which I've just compiled the 3.10.4 kernel on (remembering to set CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED) because I needed new rtlwifi drivers for my rtl8192cu device. So far, so good. It seems to work. Except /proc/bus/usb doesn't exist anymore. USB_DEVICEFS has been removed. An older kernel (3.2.9) says Usbfs entries are files and not character devices; usbfs can't handle Access Control Lists (ACL) which are the default way to grant access to USB devices for untrusted users of a desktop system. The usbfs functionality is replaced by real device-nodes managed by udev. These nodes lived in /dev/bus/usb and are used by libusb. Has anyone got udev on C5 working with this new kernel so my USB devices show? (It's not causing me any real issues, other than "lsusb" nor working; just curious!) -- rgds Stephen

looking for a comprehensive list of centos-compatible yum repositories (for gnustep program)
by Dan Hitt 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I installed CentOS 6.4 on a partition on my computer a few days ago, and i'm trying to equip it with the software i think i need. For example, i need, or i think i need, a couple of gnustep programs for uploading images from my digital camera (the programs being openapp and Camera.app). I imagine that these are old enough that they must surely exist in rpms somewhere. But i apparently don't know how to google around sufficiently well to locate a repository that contains them, or even that contains packages that i know exist as rpms. For example: i'm certain that an rpm exists for a package called gnustep-make, because its name popped up on http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=279655 But if i try 'sudo yum install gnustep-make' i get 'No package gnustep-make available.' So that clearly means that i don't have enough repositories configured for use. So, i'd be grateful for any pointers to a list of CentOS-compatible repositories that i can put in the yum configuration (/etc/yum.repos.d or elsewhere). (Maybe this is a FAQ, or an RTFM --- i'd appreciate any steering here!) dan

What on Centos is wiping out my eth0 IP address every 5 minutes?
by Rock 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

QUESTION: Why does my Centos 6.4 laptop keep wiping out my eth0 IP address? SUMMARY: a) I set the IP address of eth0 b) Everything works fine for 2 to 5 minutes c) Then, that eth0 IP address is (somehow?) wiped out I frustratingly repeat that abc process (over and over and over again) BACKGROUND: My home network has been working perfectly and there is no problem with my home network, nor my wlan0 WiFi access from my Centos laptop to that home broadband network. Inside the house, I never use the wired (eth0) NIC; but, I'm trying to set up a wired/wireless connection outside the house and that is where I'm running into this problem where Centos (automatically?) constantly and repeatedly wipes out the IP address I set on eth0. I can easily (constantly) change the IP address of the eth0 NIC back to what I want it to be; but that IP address only stays set for about 2 to 5 minutes; and then it wipes itself out (again & again). Why? How do I stop this? (All I want is for eth0 to *stay* at the IP address I set it to!) To give you more contextual detail, here's a typical sequence. SIMPLE BASELINE: Wireless NIC (wlan0) is turned off using a hardware switch on the outside of the laptop (so that only one NIC is in play). STARTING POINT: (eth0 has no IP address) $ ifconfig eth0 => eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr A0:BE:C1:D8:E5:F1 => inet6 addr: fe80::f2de:f1ff:fe38:8591/64 Scope:Link => UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 => RX packets:3139 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 => TX packets:3230 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 => collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 => RX bytes:2403080 (2.2 MiB) TX bytes:547895 (535.0 KiB) => Interrupt:20 Memory:f2600000-f2620000 I EASILY CAN SET THE IP ADDRESS of eth0: $ sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.100 $ ifconfig eth0 => eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr A0:BE:C1:D8:E5:F1 => inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 => inet6 addr: fe80::f2de:f1ff:fe38:8591/64 Scope:Link => UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 => etc. At this point, I can now connect a wire from the RJ45 port of the laptop, to the device (which happens to be a radio set to 192.168.1.20): $ ping 192.168.1.20 => PING 192.168.1.20 (192.168.1.20) 56(84) bytes of data. => 64 bytes from 192.168.1.20: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.38 ms => 64 bytes from 192.168.1.20: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.339 ms => 64 bytes from 192.168.1.20: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.255 ms ^C => --- 192.168.1.20 ping statistics --- => 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2954ms => rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.255/0.660/1.388/0.516 ms I can even easily connect via port 80 (using Firefox on the laptop) to this device, e.g., $ firefox http://192.168.1.20 In fact, time and time (and time) again, everything works just fine, for about 2 to 5 minutes, until, invariably, I lose all connectivity! What seems to happen is that CentOS wipes out my IP address that I had set for eth0. So, I lose all connectivity. $ ifconfig eth0 => eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr A0:BE:C1:D8:E5:F1 => inet6 addr: fe80::f2de:f1ff:fe38:8591/64 Scope:Link => UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 I can repeat the process, and everything works again, for about 2 to 5 minutes. Then I lose my eth0 IP address again. WHAT I WANT: When I set eth0 to an IP address, I want eth0 to *stay* at that IP address! My question: Q: Why does setting an eth0 IP address only last about 5 minutes on Centos? What am I doing wrong? What can I do to *keep* the IP address on eth0 that I set for eth0?

kio_http spawns multiple processes
by Kwan Lowe 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

Hello All: I've narrowed an earlier issue down to a problem with kio_http. This one is much easier to reproduce: In a KDE session, open Konsole terminal. In the Konsole session, type a bogus web address. E.g.: http://magoo.ca Right click the link and select "Open Link" In a few seconds you should get multiple notifications on the desktop and several kio_http processes spawned. This notifications keeps on arriving until a "killall kio_http" is issued.

Interesting admin info: ipmitool
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

I've used ipmitool any number of times, but never for more than getting info, or setting the server name on a Dell LCD screen. However, I had a server screaming about intruder alert, intruder alert, er, "Chassis intrusion detected", and I thought there might be a way to shut it up (this after pulling the server and reseating the lid). A quick google found, on the first page, an 8 page document by Dell called "Managing Dell PowerEdge Servers Using IPMItool". It's clear, comprehensible, has links to the ipmitool project, and to the IPMI standard, which has documentation on calls and parameters. It also has some examples... including "How to turn off intrusion detected events".... Other than the device ID being different on my Penguin than on a Dell PE, it was completely accurate... and it worked. A bit scary - I didn't want to turn off everything, or brick the server, but it worked as advertised. So, push that onto your stack for the time when you need it, folks. mark

How does such long term support work?
by Patrick 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

I've had nothing but trouble with BSD/Linux over the past year or so. I've been on Centos 6.4 for about a half day now and I am loving it. I am just wondering though, how does a 7 year support cycle work? I see that there is libreoffice which is kinda new. Is this because open office is under oracle's influence? I am on gnome 2 right now, will I wake up one day in the next 7 years to gnome 3 ? I really don't want to. Will I just have gnome 2 + bug fixes? If so how does the community do this if the gnome people drop support for gnome 2. Thanks-Patrick

How to know hardware RAID failure
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

Hi, We have on an old Dell 2850 with 4 SCSI drives, where we put a Hardware RAID5 on 3 disks and left 1 as spare. I dont remember exactly, but the RAID was setup in the BIOS, and when installing CentOS6, I just saw "1 drive". If it was software RAID, disk failure could be seen in /proc/mdastat, and I could simulate failure with mdadm. As far as it is hardware ATM, how, at least, to know the state of the RAID array? (syncing, healthy,...) Thank you. -- RMA.

Tomboy on F12 to Gnote on Centos
by Steve Blackwell 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

I'm trying to convert my Tomboy notes from an old F12 system to Gnote on this CentOS 6 system. What I have found buy googling so far: - Tomboy notes used to be stored in $HOME/.tomboy - Some Tomboy upgrade moved them to $HOME/.local/share/.tomboy - Gnote stores its notes in $HOME/.local/share/gnote - Gnote has a Tomboy note converter add-in My Tomboy notes are in /home/steve/.tomboy so I had the old Tomboy system. I have the Tomboy add-in installed in Gnote I have tried copying my notes from $HOME/.tomboy to $HOME/.local/share/gnote and I have also tried copying them to $HOME/.local/share/tomboy but in either case I don't see them in gnote. Do I have a directory name wrong or is there some action needed to start the conversion? Thanks, Steve

What does this Centos Network Manager error message mean
by Rock 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

Here is the error message: http://i41.tinypic.com/2zz71bp.png Wireless Network Authentication Required Unlock Keyring: The application 'NetworkManager Applet' (/usr/bin/nm-applet) wants access to the default keyring, but it is locked. The funny thing is, (a) I've never seen this message before (in a year of using CentOS) (b) I am the system administrator but it won't take the root password (c) I don't even know 'what' a default keyring is in the first place (d) This only happened after I changed the SSID of my home network When I tried to connect to my home network with the new SSID, this message came up. Funny thing is that I never got past it, since it seems to want a password that isn't my user password nor my root password. I still connected to the network though. So, it's odd all around. In fact, it makes no sense to me. Q1: What password is it looking for anyway? (it's not root or the user) Q2: Why did it let me connect to the home network Note: If you get this, I am on the network even without typing whatever password that application seems to want.

It might look overflues, but when doing an installation with PXE, you need dhcp. Just gotta be careful that the hard coded and the dhcp ones are the same.... Regarding N.M.: It is a wonderful tool. At least for end-users on desktops/laptops with frequently changing WIFI or UMTS connections. But for servers, without a GUI, but with vlans, load-balancing or H-A?

Help with thread Centos 6.4 won't reboot on install
by Robert Benjamin 26 Jul '13

26 Jul '13

Newbie here. Need help with a thread that has about 25 posts. No replies in a few days. The thread is in software support for centos 6 and the subject of the thread is Centos 6.4 won't reboot on install. Have had limited success in getting a login screen but once I logout, I can't get back in again. It was mentioned in the thread that the problem is likely in Network Configuration. I have no GUI (gnome) no mouse, no terminal, and keyboard use only with Ctl+Alt+F2. Can login as root but have no luck getting the GUI to appear or to get a user login screen. Thanks in advance for your help. Bob

Cpus_allowed_list issue in RHEL6.4
by Miraj Mohamed 24 Jul '13

24 Jul '13

Hi All, I am using RHEL 6.4 on a Dell Server with 32 cores. But in the Cpus_allowed_list only 30 cores are available. Why is that? See the snippet from cat /proc/self/status: Cpus_allowed: 7fff7fff Cpus_allowed_list: 0-14,16-30 The allowed list is same for the init process as well (see below). I didn't see this issue, in RHEL 6.2. Why is that? Is there a way to change it? -miraj ------------------------------------- [root@localhost bin]# uname -a Linux localhost 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jan 29 11:47:41 EST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@localhost bin]# [root@localhost bin]# [root@localhost bin]# cat /proc/1/status Name: init State: S (sleeping) Tgid: 1 Pid: 1 PPid: 0 TracerPid: 0 Uid: 0 0 0 0 Gid: 0 0 0 0 Utrace: 0 FDSize: 64 Groups: VmPeak: 19364 kB VmSize: 19356 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 1544 kB VmRSS: 1544 kB VmData: 328 kB VmStk: 88 kB VmExe: 140 kB VmLib: 2348 kB VmPTE: 52 kB VmSwap: 0 kB Threads: 1 SigQ: 1/256326 SigPnd: 0000000000000000 ShdPnd: 0000000000000000 SigBlk: 0000000000000000 SigIgn: 0000000000001000 SigCgt: 00000001a0016623 CapInh: 0000000000000000 CapPrm: ffffffffffffffff CapEff: fffffffffffffeff CapBnd: ffffffffffffffff Cpus_allowed: 7fff7fff Cpus_allowed_list: 0-14,16-30 Mems_allowed: 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000003 Mems_allowed_list: 0-1 voluntary_ctxt_switches: 1603 nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 62

rpmbuild environment CentOS5 vs CentOS6
by Peter Wood 24 Jul '13

24 Jul '13

On CentOS5 I was used to create a simple spec file where at the end I'll declare files and directories I wan't to package: --< Snip >-- %files %dir /opt/myapp %dir /opt/myapp/bin %dir /opt/myapp/etc /opt/myapp/bin/exec01 /opt/myapp/etc/myapp.conf ---- I'll copy the file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and run "rpmbuild -bb myapp.spec". On CentOS6 rpm-build package no longer creates the /usr/src/redhat/... directory tree. I followed the CentOS6 Wiki instructions to setup my rpmbuild environment for a regular user. When I try to build the package on CentOS6 I'm getting this error for every single file and directory: File not found: /home/peter/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/myapp-5.2-1el6.x86_64/opt/myapp/bin/exec01 I tried to override buildroot: rpmbuild -bb --define="buildroot /" myapp.spec error: %{buildroot} can not be "/" As a workaround I can manually create /home/peter/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/myapp-5.2-1el6.x86_64/ and copy all my file in there but that's a lot of extra work. Is there a way to get the same functionality on CentOS6 where rpmbuild will collect the files from the main / directory and build the rpm package? Thank you, -- Peter

NFS not exporting filesystem ACLs
by Gregory Machin 24 Jul '13

24 Jul '13

Hi. I have a test system in an lab I have copied over the /etc/sysconfig/nfs and /etc/exports from productions all the same services are running. But in the test environment the client mounts the nfs exports but the file system ACLs are not visible , what have I missed ? I have stopped the firewall on the server and that didn't help. Filesystem acls are enabled in fstab for the file system with the exports on it. We are using nfs v3 and it's configured on the server and in the mounts on the client. Thanks Greg

by Martin Šťastný 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Hello, I am going to buy new laptop with two drives, one SSD and one HDD and I want to place swap partition on HDD which will be most time unused and therefore spinned down. Problem is, that I don't know, if or how often is kernel touching swap space even if there is lot of free memory and thus spinning HDD up. Thank you in advance

SELinux Question
by Ken Smith 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Hi Guys, My google foo is failing me this afternoon. Just configuring a new C6 install. I know there are SELinux alerts happening, eg: I know I need to enable named to write to the local .jnl file as part of dynamic DNS, but sealert -b is not listing any alerts. I can see raw audit messages. Is there some daemon I have forgotten to start or install?

How do I debug why Centos is asking for fonts to be installed?
by Rock 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Quite a few times a day, both the latest Pan & Firefox available in standard CentOS repositories elicit what (now) appears to be a CentOS request to install fonts, e.g.: http://i39.tinypic.com/2i7qm2p.png This latest message says: Pan newsreader wants to install fonts - Thai - Cherokee At first I had thought it was Pan and Firefox causing these messages, but I was just told it's actually CentOS which is making these requests. Hence, I ask: Q: How do I debug why these requests are being made? And, more importantly: Q: How do I prevent these messages from popping up?

by Jiang Wen Dong 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

I want to make a live USB from live CD. CentOS 6.4 live CD doesn't work. Can not find root when initrd0 booting. It appears initrd0 can not find the USB harddisk - SAMSUNG MP0402H. But CentOS 5.6 live CD works fine. What can I do?

HPN-SSH performance optimization?
by Ljubomir Ljubojevic 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

Hi. I wonder what is a current position on HPN-SSH patch for OpenSSH is? I have seen a progress was made, so I was wondering if that patch is safe enough and if anyone is building it? Maybe separate package to accept connections to special port for local network (without NFS/Samba)? It is supposed to provide up to 20x more speed over ssh. Homepage is here http://www.psc.edu/index.php/hpn-ssh Also, I heard about some additions to Openssh so that it can transport larger files without encryption? Was it added? -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe StarOS, Mikrotik and CentOS/RHEL/Linux consultant

Question about Red Hat beta
by Joe Keller 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

Does CentOS get an early version of a beta release from Red Hat or not? I assume select hardware vendors get early access but I didn't know who else. Thanks, Joe
