Re: [CentOS] editing gnome menu
by C.M. Connelly 30 Mar '05

30 Mar '05

Ryan, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by ``editing'', but if you mean ``adding'' and ``removing'' entries, I found ``Editing GNOME2 Menus in Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9'', at <http://www.bluethingy.com/linux/rh8menu.html> to be pretty helpful in understanding how this stuff works. It seems like the information in that article applies to CentOS 3 (and, presumably, also to CentOS 4). (Yes, I happened to be tinkering with the menu stuff when I saw your message.)

RHEL Un question
by Collins Richey 30 Mar '05

30 Mar '05

Please excuse my ignorance, since I have not used any RedHat (enterprise or otherwise) until Fedora FC3 (a few weeks) and now CentOS4 (permanently). I keep finding references to Un (I believe it's up to U5 now) in references to bugfixes, etc for RHEL. I presume (?) these are dot releases after the initial release? Is there anything equivalent for CentOS, or is this RedHat only behavior?

Is there any easy way to edit the gnome menu under CentOS 4? The same versions of gnome under different distros allow easy (to different degrees) of menu editing.

Welcome to the New CentOS Mailing List
by lance＠uklinux.net 30 Mar '05

30 Mar '05

As you will know from recent posts, CentOS is separating from cAos to become an independent project. As part of that change we are implementing new mailing lists. This new mailing list is now known as centos(a)centos.org and you have been subscribed to it if you were subscribed to centos(a)caosity.org. Due to the large number of people subscribed it has not been possible to retain options etc across to the new list, so if you only want to receive digests or need to change any other options then you will need to login to change them. You can find out the password assigned to you by having it emailled to you from :- http://lists.centos.org/mailman/options/centos The archive of posts has been transferred across to the new list manager.

yum stalls <?>
by Mike Kercher 27 Feb '05

27 Feb '05

I just installed a fresh 3.3 system (because those are the ISO's I had on hand). Upon running yum update, it starts to download headers and then stalls. I hit Ctl-C and it continues to download about 4-5 more headers and stalls. I hit Ctl-C again and it pulls a few more headers. Anyone seen this and/or know how to fix it? TIA Mike

Kernel Question
by Chris Bryant 27 Feb '05

27 Feb '05

OK- A dumb question. Will a "generic"(kernel.org) kernel work with Centos 4? My reason for asking- I'm needing to upgrade from RH9, and would rather go ahead and go with 4 for the 2.6 kernel, but I need a patched kernel (Win4Lin), and I'm not sure they will offer a prepatched version (though they probably will for EL4). Thanks! -- Chris Bryant

CentOS 4 dual boot
by Chris Bryant 27 Feb '05

27 Feb '05

Another quick question- In reading the "official" release notes for EL4, I ran across this- > Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 support for SELinux uses Extended > Attributes on ext2/ext3 file systems. This means that, when a file is > written to a default-mounted ext2/ext3 file system, an extended > attribute will also be written. > > This will cause problems on systems that dual boot between Red Hat > Enterprise Linux 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. The Red Hat > Enterprise Linux 2.1 kernels do not support extended attributes, and > can crash when encountering them. Anyone run in to this problem? It kind of quashes my hopes of keeping a running RH9 system sharing the /home directory with Centos 4- but what the heck. -- Chris Bryant

Perl wierdness.
by Lamar Owen 27 Feb '05

27 Feb '05

Ok, trying to install amavisd-new from Dag. Getting into a lot of problems, all of which seem to stem from Perl dependency issues. I have built several of the required modules by hand, but then got down to perl-MIME-tools. It builds FINE, but will not install. Why? Turns out, the perl RPM 'provides' perl(MIME::QuotedPrint)=3.01 but the module itself is 3.03. Build a perl module against MIME::QuotedPrint and you get a Requires:perl(MIME::QuotedPrint)>=3.03, which fails on installation.

Thank you to all the people that responded. I found a php.spec file for EL3 and modified the php.spec file that came with the php source rpm from the CentOS mirros. Built and installed the php-snmp rpm and it is working great!!! For anyone that would like to have a copy for themselves can find it at http://traffic.wonderwave.net I will leave it up for a week or two so act fast. I also posted the the original spec file, the one with snmp support and a diff file showing the difference between the two. Thanks again to all you helped me out. Dan

CentOS 4

Has RedHat... oops... those folks in North Carolina decided to drop support for Pentium II machines in EL4? I have this old Compaq 3000R 300mHtz P2 which will never die, which makes for a really nice test base for new releases. Maybe the EL people have decided their subscriptions per year cost more than this server is worth and no one in their right mind would install EL4 on such equipment? Well, they are wrong, I am very left handed which makes me one of the ones who thinks in their right mind! Thanks for all the hard work! John Hinton

Anybody knows if exists any tool for redhat based distros, like apt-proxy in debian world ( that donwloads packages on demmand), that supports this feature?? I see yam tool from dag repository, but it needs that do a full mirror ... and I don´t have as much disk space.

An announce list is standard fare, not like we are talking about something that would be terrible to maintain here. Create a list that does not allow posts, send it a message when a new package is available. Boom, 0 administration, almost 0 storage, very little resources. It is good practice and you will get a lot of subscribers that don't want to see the day to day traffic or visit the site constantly. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of Francois Caen Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 5:55 PM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] Re: centos-announce list?

4.0_rc1 new install fails to enable mixer devices
by Collins Richey 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

I've just installed 4.0_rc1 to evaluate and compare with FC3 for a local project. The installation and initial usage of the two distros is almost identical. up2date and yum work well on either. The one problem I have is with sound. CentOS has loaded snd_intel8x0 and all the usual suspects, but the mixers (GNOME volume controls, etc., do not work because there is no /dev/xxx for the mixer device. FC3 did not have this problem, and sound worked AOK, or at least as good as it gets for my miserable builtin card. I might note that I had a similar problem on gentoo (which also uses udev), and I have to preload some of the alsa modules or I get the same results. Does anyone have experience with this on CentOS? I haven't done a comparison of the alias files, etc., between CentOS and FC3. Is there a way to preload modules on CentOS prior to udev/hotplug action? TIA, -- Collins

Migration

Hello all! I'm new to the list. I just upgraded 3 White Box Linux servers (database, application and internet) yesterday to Centos 3.4 using the info in http://centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=19. Very easy, and that was a very helpfull document! The decision was based in the speed of updates, really much faster in Centos! Is there a similar way to upgrade a Fedora Core 1 server to Centos 3.4? Would it be possible? I saw some messages in the list about it (archives) but I don't know if in the time the version of Centos was 3.4, and some people said that it whas not possible because would be a downgrade of some packages...

How to create a CD/DVD
by Maciej Żenczykowski 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Hi! Assuming I have all the files (basically I've downloaded the ISOs) of CentOS 4 (RC1 for now, but 4.0 in the future) how do I recreate the ISO images - both to regain the original 4 CDs (less important) - and to achieve a DVD image (more important but can probably be guessed from the answer to how to make the CDs). Any takers? [note I've burned many CDs - I'm basically asking for the command line to mkisofs et al to get an as near bit-perfect as possible ISO from source files only] Furthermore, even though I'm very new here, I'd suggest splitting up this mailing list into announce lists for the various releases (ie centos-announce-3.4 and the like, for updates/etc, with no posting by non-admins/maintainers) and a general discussion list (possibly also split into centos-2/3/4/all). Just my two cents. Cheers, MaZe.

Oracle Driver for Linux?
by Michael Best 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

I have a Zope + DCOracle2 setup, and I was thinking of moving to Zope + eGenix ODBC (which will use unixODBC) however that still leaves me lacking a driver to connect this to the Oracle server. There are a number of variously priced commercial drivers out there like EasySoft, Merant, OpenLink, etc. Someone built upon a previous open source EasySoft driver: http://fndapl.fnal.gov/~dbox/oracle/odbc/ Anyone have any suggestions/experience? -Mike

keepalived on centos 3.4

Is anyone successfully using dag's keepalived-1.1.10-1.1.el3.rf on centos 3.4? It's giving me some strange issues (LVS Topology never shows up, even though I can manually set it w/ ipvsadm) Attempting to rebuild it has been less than successful, as anyone who tries will see in their appropriate BUILD/keepalived-1.1.10/config.log and in the rpmbuild output. It complains about openssl and kssl.h... (see bellow) However, I have the latest openssl-devel and krb5-devel rpms installed. Before I spend any more time on this.

Upgrading FC2 -> Centos4RC1 (possible, but messy)
by Michael Best 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

This was my experience with upgrading, your mileage may vary especially if it's in kilometers. This is what I had to do to get my system running again. ############## In order to attempt this upgrade, I had to use "linux upgradeany", a mode not listed for the installer CDs. My first problem was I could no longer boot the system after the upgrade. My grub menu showed my old FC2 kernel, Fedora Core (2.6.10-1.14_FC2), but not the kernel for Centos. Trying to boot this FC2 kernel it froze after "Enabling swap space:" * Boot up the "linux rescue", chroot /mnt/sysimage * used lynx to download kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm * rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm warning: kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4fe06303 error: failed to stat /dev/shm: No such file or directory Preparing... ################################################## package kernel-2.6.10-1.14_FC2 (which is newer than kernel-2.6.9-5.EL) is already installed * rpm -ivh --old-package kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm warning: kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4fe06303 error: failed to stat /dev/shm: No such file or directory Preparing... ################################################## error: %pre(kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686) scriptlet failed, exit status 255 error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping kernel-2.6.9-5.EL * rpm2cpio kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm | cpio -i --make-directories * mv boot/* /boot/ * mv lib/modules/* /lib/modules/ * depmod -a * mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.EL 2.6.9-5.EL * edit /etc/grub.conf an add in this kernel * rebooted into the Centos-4 system at this point just need to do some finishing work to get things started * fedora-release-2-4.i386 wasn't upgraded to centos-release * yum wouldn't run as the fedora release version was 2 cp /etc/yum.conf /etc/yum.conf.old cp /etc/yum.conf.rpmnew /etc/yum.conf wget http://beta.centos.org/centos/4.0beta/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/centos-release-4.… rpm -e --nodeps fedora-release rpm -ivh centos-release-4.0beta-5.i386.rpm rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4.0beta yum clean all rpm -e --nodeps $(rpm -qa | grep kernel | grep FC2) yum install kernel (or rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686.rpm) yum update -Mike

Oracle Apps on Linux
by Joao Medeiros 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi folks, I seem to remember someone asking how to install Oracle Apps on Linux so here goes a quick and dirty how-to:- 0 - You will need access to Metalink (Oracle's support site) for downloading patches and read documentation on line. 1 - Size up your Linux box to at least 1Gb memory and 200Gb of disk space. I'm assuming you have a Pentium 4 at around 3GHz. 2 - Download and install if not already installed compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.126. Fedora Core 3 doesn't come with it but you can get it from Fedora Core 2. WBEL and CentOS should have it installed by default. 3 - Download the latest version of Oracle Applications from edelivery.oracle.com. Latest release available is 11.5.10 and comes in 46 zip files totalling a 25Gb. It expands to about the same size since there's a lot of compressed files in it. 4 - Create a new group called dba. Create a new user called oracle and assign dba as the primary group. 5 - Log in as oracle and edit the .bash_profile to add the variable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19. Make sure you export it. 6 - Start unloading the zip files and make sure you follow the instructions from Oracle so that they end up in a nice tree under /Stage11i. Review the Installation guide. 7 - Rename the /usr/bin/unzip to whatever you want to call it and copy the unzip from /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/unzip/Linux. 8 - Change to /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz and execute RapidWizVersion. If it is not 11.5.10.33 you will need to download patch 4132885 from Metalink. Unzip the files under /Stage11i/startCD as it will overwrite the contents of Disk1. 9 - Download patch 3006854 from Metalink to fix an OS library problem. 10 - Start your installation by running /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz. Choose single box installation. 11 - Review the log file for any errors. Fix if required. 12 - If you're using an SQL Client from outside the Linux box you will need to comment some lines in your $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/SID_Servername/sqlnet.ora file (replace SID with your chosen SID, mine is PROD, default is VIS) and (replace Servername with your hostname). Look for the lines with tcp.validnode_checking and tcp.invited_nodes; put a '#' in the beginning. Restart your listener. 13 - Open your browser and point it to http://yourservername.yourdomainname:8000. Log in as operations/welcome and start hacking away :-) Let me know if you're stuck with anything and I'll do what I can to help. Cheers, Joao Note ---- Oracle Apps forms in a browser is currently only supported on Netscape 4.7.xx and IE6 although it can be put to work with Firefox.
