2.6 Kernel Differences
by doug＠simflex.com 15 Apr '05

15 Apr '05

I am running CentOS 4, and trying to get an unsupported program running on it. This program makes a lot of socket calls and has to run as an unprivileged user. I think I remember reading somewhere that the 2.6 kernel requires superuser rights for some socket operations. Is there a way to disable this in the 2.6 kernel? Which ports require the superuser rights? Thanks, Doug

I'm having a hard time getting PHPBB installed on Centos. We get the error that The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose. We choose MySQL 3.x but get that error. Perhaps PHP4 isn't compatible with MySQL 3.23.58-1? -- <<JAV>>

Strangest thing (crond every 5 min.)
by Mário Gamito 15 Apr '05

15 Apr '05

Hi, I've installed CentOS-4 4 days ago. Now, every 5 minutes, crond opens and close a root session, with no other info. Example: Apr 14 16:25:01 tux crond(pam_unix)[4031]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Apr 14 16:25:02 tux crond(pam_unix)[4031]: session closed for user root Every five minutes the same thing. I have nothing in /etc/crontab that makes such a thing. Does anyone knows why is this happening and what is crond doing ? Any help would be apreciated. /etc/crontab: -------------------- [root@tux cron.daily]# cat /etc/crontab SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/ # run-parts 01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly 02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily 22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly 42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly 00 3 * * 5 root /usr/local/bin/backup [root@tux cron.daily]# -------------------------------------------- Warm Regards, Mário Gamito

printer configuration crashes after Samsung install
by Arny Goldfein 15 Apr '05

15 Apr '05

Hi, I just installed the Samsung linux ML-1710 driver on my Centos 3.4 system. I was intending to drive a printer conneted to a windows xp machine, over the network. Now that I've done the install, the printer configuration applet crashes as soon as I try to launch it. I get the following Traceback: # printconf Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/printconf", line 9, in ? import queueTree File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 946, in ? queueTree() File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 102, in __init__ if cups_import.import_needed (): File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 200, in import_needed which = which_spooler () File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 191, in which_spooler which = l.split ('.')[1].strip () IndexError: list index out of range How do I fix this?

Kernel Panic - not syncing: drivers -
by Gerald Waugh 15 Apr '05

15 Apr '05

I get a lot of these errors when running CentOS4. Kernel Panic - not syncing: drivers/ide/pci/pix.c:390 spin_lock (drivers/ide/ide.c:c306ad68) already locked by drivers/ide/ide- iops.c/1234. Must be something in the drivers or the kernel, it does not happen using 2.4.x kernels. Maybe some kind of a race condition? Anyone else see these? Gerald

Kickstart
by Gerald Waugh 14 Apr '05

14 Apr '05

Does someone have an example mkisofs command with arguments to create a CD from the files on the CentOS CD? Since we are building servers, all the data is on CentOS4 CD1. I plan to modify it to include a kickstart file and remove some of the things on there that I don't need. I use something like this on the Cobalt Networks servers, need mods to work on CentOS. (following on one line) mkisofs -P Name -b boot/elterito.img -c boot/boot.catalog -R -I -L -o path-to-iso/name.iso . Now I am sure the boot references need to change. TIA for help ;) Gerald

Antw: [CentOS] CentOS and HP Drivers
by Arthur MEßNER 14 Apr '05

14 Apr '05

We are using the Hp-Agents continuously on our Servers. The latest Version with centos-3.3 was no Problem. Mainly it depends on the used kernel Versions, because the raid driver modules are not for vanilla kernels, only for official Kernels from Redhat, Suse ... The only thing you have to do, is to fake the /etc/redhat-release, because the installer looks for supported Linux Versions. After Installation you can view your Configuration via firefox. http://localhost:2301 also you will see alot new processes starting. ------------------------------------------------------------- Ing.

Re: [CentOS] Constant disk activity
by Ron Yorston 14 Apr '05

14 Apr '05

>Is there any way of finding out what is accessing the disk? Not only it >shortens battery life, it is annoying while working in a quiet room. When I had problems with irritating disk noises on a laptop it turned out that the problem wasn't so much disk access as an over-aggressive power management setting. hdparm -I /dev/hda | grep 'power management' should tell you the current setting. The default value seems to be 128, but what exactly that means depends on your hard disk. I found that changing the setting to 200 was a big improvement: hdparm -B 200 /dev/hda You can make the change permanent by editing /etc/sysconfig/harddisks. Ron

Re: [Centos] rpm corruption
by John Newbigin 14 Apr '05

14 Apr '05

In answer to my own question, this is what I have done which appears to fix the problem: 1. Edit /usr/lib/rpm/macros and change the line %__dbi_rebuild nofsync !log !txn !cdb to %__dbi_rebuild nofsync !log !txn !cdb !thread 2. export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 3. rpm --rebuilddb 4. unset LD_ASSUME_KERNEL 5. Edit /usr/lib/rpm/macros back to the original 6. rpm --rebuilddb So far this fixes the problems I have been having. I assume it is possible to override the macro setting on the rpm command line so no editing is required and a simple script can be run on all my machines. John.

swiotlb causing panics on 8gig ia32e systems running Centos 3.4 x86_64
by James Olin Oden 14 Apr '05

14 Apr '05

Hi All, I have several ia32e systems with 8 gig that panic on install and first boot. The panic is arch/x86_64/swiotlb.c (working from memory so I might be a bit off) and its in the routine that I think is trying to allocate another chunk of memory for the "Software I/O Translation Buffer". I am guessing it needs to allocate contiguous chunks of memory and that is why it fails on the realloc. Anyway, on install the only way I can get the install to work is to set "mem=512" or something way below 8Gig. Whereas once the machine is loaded I can get it to boot by without a panic by passing the kernel arg swiotlb set to some rather larger value like 16384. Doing this with varying values during install yields either the same panic or causes a failure of the kernel to detect the cdrom device due to some "resource conflict", which why on a hunch a fellow engineer tried the mem option. Anyway, we can live with this work around if we have to, but I was wondering a couple of things: - Is there any metric to choose a proper value for ioswtbl? - Since its failing to do the re-alloc in the boot kernel am I likely to see this occur on the installed kernel at some inopportune moment? - If there is such a metric does anyone have any ideas on how it might could be grafted into the kernel itself in such a way that all interested parties would be OK with such a patch? And of course if anyone else has seen this, I would be interested in their knowledge on the issue. Just so you know I familiar with this enough to know that ia32e (nocona/lindhurst 64 bit one off copy of AMD 64 bit processors) does not contain an IOMMU (unlike the AMD processor) and thus the kernel developers had to do a serious hack creating this bounce buffer like thing. Which is all to say I understand why its there, and that on the ia32e systems I have to live with it, I just want it to be stable or find some way to make it so. Thanks...james

Hi all, We are running a new Centos-4 server, and it has kernel panicked on us 4 times in the last month. After the first kernel panic we hooked up a serial console to the server and captured the output in order to have a record of what happens. I've included the error messages from the last time it locked up... but it doesn't really mean much to me. Anybody have any ideas what might be causing this server lock up? Server description: -Dell PE1750 - dual 2.8Ghz Xeon (with Hyper Threading on) - 2GB DDR RAM - Perc4-DI onboard RAID using 3 scsi drives in raid-5 configuration -ext3 file system -kernel-smp-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL -mysql - from distribution -2 postfix instances rebuilt with MySQL support -amavisd-new -clamav -spamassassin -rbldnsd -bind Here's the captured output from a serial console connected to the server at time of fault.

Firefox problems
by James B. Byrne 12 Apr '05

12 Apr '05

Since upgrading to FireFox 1.0.2 I have noticed a large number of problems connecting to web sites that are reached without difficulty using MS-IE 6. The symptom is a message box that declares that the "The Document Contains No Data" which, ironically enough, is the very error I get when trying to reach http://www.google.ca/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://kb.mozillazine.org/Do cument_contains_no_data&e=10167 using Firefox. I ended up getting it in MS-IE. Is it just me or did the last release of Firefox significantly degrade its reliability. When I close Firefox with multiple tabs I now nearly always get an error that attempts to mail itself off to Mozilla. After several dozen of these I just close them now. I have removed and re-installed Firefox several times without relief. I have these same problems on at least two different machines that I use, one running Win2Kpro and the other Win XPpro. I am not looking for a fix here, but I was wondering if anyone had further information on the subject that they are willing to share.

What would be the proper steps to upgrade to 2.6.11 on centos 4.0 This is what I think... tar -zxvf linux-2.6.11.6.bz2 cd linux-2.6.11.6 make oldconfig - enter for all choies presented vi .config - change 8250_NR_UARTS to 36 to support 4 - 8 port rs232 cards make bzImage make modules_install mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.11.6 2.6.1.6 cp -f arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinux-2.6.11.6 edit /etc/grub.conf Is this the correct procedure?

trouble booting the system with I2O hardware RAID
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 12 Apr '05

12 Apr '05

I've just made (yet another) CentOS 4 installation. The install process seems to go fine, however the machine doesn't wan't to boot. The system in question has one of I2O Adaptec RAID controllers. I've configured LVM with one volume group and several volumes. If I boot into the rescue mode, all looks fine and dandy. Anaconda finds the installation, and I can access all volumes. However, when doing "real" boot, it gets into trouble. All required modules are loaded from initrd image (as far as I can tell). The I2O modules are able to locate the RAID devices (I see all partitions reported: /dev/i2o/hda1 (unused), /dev/i2o/hdb1 (/boot), and /dev/i2o/hdb2 (rest of the system under LVM). The only thing different from rescue mode is that i2o/hda and i2o/hdb are reversed (this is strange, but it shouldn't affect things since /boot partition has a label "/boot", and all the rest is under LVM, so everything should be device name independent). I have no idea why i2o device drivers behave differently when loaded from initrd image during boot, and by Anaconda during installation. The last couple of messages printed on the screen are: Creating root device Mounting root file system kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. mount: error 2 mounting none Switching to new root WARNING: can't access (null) exec of init ((null)) failed!!!: 14 umount /initrd/dev failed: 2 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! Looking at the "init" script from initrd image, this correspond to: echo Mounting root filesystem mount -o defaults --ro -t ext3 /dev/root /sysroot mount -t tmpfs --bind /dev /sysroot/dev echo Switching to new root switchroot /sysroot umount /initrd/dev Which would indicate that mount of root file system went OK, but then it failed to mount /dev filesystem (basically, move already mounted /dev to /sysroot/dev). After the switchroot /sysroot, old /dev mount point become invalid (non-accessible), the new /dev mount point was not there and of course everything broke from that point on. I've Googled around a bit, and the only relevant thing Google gave me was this French page. There were couple of more pages with similar but different problem (modules failing to load and/or detect disk drives, which is not the case here, all modules were loaded correctly as witnessed by successfull LVM initialization and successfull root file system mount). http://www.fedora-france.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=3838&foru… I do live in Canada, but don't speak a word of French (shame on me, but in my defense it is on my todo list). However I did managed to figure out somebody suggested going with Grub instead of LILO. IMO, Grub or LILO shouldn't make any difference, since the error is happening way after boot loader did its job. Anyhow, just for fun, I reinstalled the system from scratch, this time choosing Grub as boot loader of choice to be installed into MBR. However, for whatever reason, Anaconda did not install Grub (dd & less showed no signs of Grub in MBR). Boot into the rescue, chroot, grub-install, OK now I have Grub in MBR. But again, no joy. Grub doesn't even start and system simply hangs in mid-air. No errors printed, no anything. Currently, I'm kind of stuck and idea-less. The system did worked perfectly in the past with Red Hat 7.3 (and LILO as boot loader), and exactly the same hardware RAID configuration (two volumes, one for system, one for data). Any help, hint, etc would be greatly appriciated. -- Aleksandar Milivojevic <amilivojevic(a)pbl.ca> Pollard Banknote Limited Systems Administrator 1499 Buffalo Place Tel: (204) 474-2323 ext 276 Winnipeg, MB R3T 1L7

CentOS Firewall can handle multi IP?
by Franki 11 Apr '05

11 Apr '05

Hi guys, Just a quick question. Can RHEL4/CentOS built in firewall handle multiple IP's bound to one interface? For example on one of my boxes out there I have 64 IP's bound to an interface used in virtual hosting. I searched long and hard for a easy and useable solution without much success. I ended up rolling my own, but it's a hack. Was wondering if CentOS has any answers for me in that regard. rgds Franki

Media check problems
by Kenneth Kalmer 11 Apr '05

Dear community I've just noticed that the CentOS 4.0 ISO's I downloaded from ftp.sunsite.org.uk fails the media check on installation. All four fail. The md5 checks pass and I've done 5 full installations from the set of failed cd's and no problems what so ever. I never bothered to do the media check untill a friend asked me what it does... The installation works, wonder what the problem could be? Any suggestions or should I provide more information to help fix this if it might be a bug?

MailScanner SPAM Forward & Postfix Problem
by Kennedy Clark 10 Apr '05

10 Apr '05

First, thanks to the CentOS folks for creating such as awesome distro! Second, thanks to all for contributing to such an great mailling list! I installed MailScanner/SpamAssassin/ClamAV last week based on the excellent threads that have recently discussed the subject. For folks who missed it, I used Johnny's wonderful guide at http://www.hughesjr.com/content/category/1/14/30/Guides (see Part 4). I'm using CentOS 3.4. On the MTA side, I am using Postfix with a virtual alias table. I want to have MailScanner use the "forward" "Spam Actions" option to put all spam in a central email account (it's a local account on the same server). I can email to this central spam account no problem (both locally and from outside accounts such as gmail). The "Spam Actions = forward blah(a)blah.com" works if blah(a)blah.com is an account on a separate system (such as this account on gmail). However, no matter what I do, I cannot make it work with a local account -- I always get the following postfix error in /var/log/maillog: ..., status=bounced (user unknown in virtual alias table). I'm guessing it has something to do with the fact that I'm using a virtual alias table, but I don't want to get rid of that (even for testing purposes) because it's obviously being used for live email. :-) I know this might be more of a Postfix or MailScanner question, but I thought I would start here. Many thanks for any assistance! Kennedy

grub/raid1 on centos4
by Les Mikesell 08 Apr '05

08 Apr '05

With Centos3, fedora1/2 I have been able to put /boot on a RAID1 partition and have it boot normally. Unlike earlier versions that used lilo as the default boot loader, these did not make the 2nd drive bootable but at least I was fairly confident that if the first drive failed I could use the install CD in rescue mode to fix up the 2nd one and go on. However, Centos4 won't boot at all with a similar install attempt and running grub-install in rescue mode gives an error about not being able to find the bios drives. Is there a howto somewhere to work around this problem? -- Les Mikesell les(a)futuresource.com

Apache and TCP Wrappers
by ryanag＠zoominternet.net 08 Apr '05

I'm trying to lock down Apache and SSH by using TCP Wrappers. I put /etc/hosts.allow to be httpd: IP#1 IP#2 127.0.0.1 sshd: IP#1 IP#2 127.0.0.1 and hosts.deny ALL: ALL This seems to work great for ssh, and not at all for httpd. Does anyone know why this would be? thanks
