I want to run a script before systemd starts doing stuff but I cant find anything online about how that could happen. It seems /etc/rc.local is depreciated now?

TeX Live on CentOS 7
by Nicolas Kovacs 22 Jul '17

22 Jul '17

Hi, I just installed the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner on my CentOS 7 workstation. Everything seems to work fine, except PDF generation. The 'openvas-check-setup' script tells me that PDF generation works fine, but whenever I want to generate a report, the result is unusable and can't open in Evince or Okular. After googling a bit, I found out that several users complained that Tex Live is broken under RHEL/CentOS 7. While I did use LaTeX a long time ago to write documents, I don't use it anymore nowadays (just Markdown or LibreOffice). But I do need a working installation of TeX Live for OpenVAS PDF reports. What can I do now? Perform a manual installation of TeX Live with their provided installer (to /opt) and then blacklist all texlive* packages? I admit I'm a bit surprised that a distribution like RHEL/CentOS that prises quality wouldn't provide a working TeX Live in their package repositories. Any suggestions?

getting rid of hp c3180
by Michael Hennebry 22 Jul '17

22 Jul '17

I have a hp photosmart C3180 all-in-one and am well and truly sick of it. It seems like every time I go on another printing binge, I need yet another print cartridge. hp-clean doesn't help. IIRC this use it or lose it "feature" is common to inkjets. What should I replace it with? If I want a non-cloggging printer, is laser jet the way I need to go? I'd like to do color occasionally, but might not want to pay the price for a color laser. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards

MATROX GPU - xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.6.3 on supermicro server
by Andreas Benzler 21 Jul '17

21 Jul '17

Hello Guys, our cluster runs till 2014 on supermicro board. It is not unusual that still mainboards with mga graphics cards are delivered. So I have then adjusted the mga driver from centos 6 - the specification file - , to be build on CentOS 7. Since then this runs on the headnode without failures. Maybe you should provide this via epel. The source can be found here: http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/drivers/SRPM/xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.6.3-11.el7… This is the latest from Centos 6.9. Sincerely Andy

installer with centosplus kernel?
by Keith Keller 20 Jul '17

20 Jul '17

Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel to the machine in other ways, but over the network is by far the most convenient.) See https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7359 for more details. I've done other web searches but found nothing more specific than this link. Thanks! --keith -- kkeller(a)wombat.san-francisco.ca.us

Thanks to all offers free service to provide Centos. Why? After I had the BIOS for the laptop T440 & docking station had I had immediately after the first installation works, without any failures. Since I know how hard such a work is, I thank everyone in the community to make that possible. Without a stable base I can not perform my Linux tests. Since I often have the time micht Rolling releases like ArchLinux or every half year, I know at the latest after a year, a Fedora update to perform is CentOS exactly the correct. I do not need the GUI support as in OpenSuSE, because who comes times from the shell knows what I mean. Most cluster nodes in my work are computing machines with an average run time of 220 days, usually over a year before they need a reboot. When I think about my virtual Windows 10, which every week requires a restart. I had already more than 30 distros active in my hands, but none read so easily. Of course you can always improve something here and there and yet it comes on a good basis. Furthermore, I find the handling of rpm easily understandable. Small supplement to my repo: - I provide the packages of my work - They are not signed because I do not see you directly as an additional repository for everyone, rather than as an exponential fundus. - Each external repostory changes the basic system. - new dependencies to the packages. - Users also indirectly depend on it. - Repositories in the past have already led to a new split of the basis. Best example: Debian -> Ubuntu -> Linux Mint. I don't like that point at all. - The holder is bound, in a certain way, to the care and demand of the Community. - I definitely miss the time. All in all ... thanks to everyone Andy

CESA-2017:1759 Important CentOS 6 freeradius Security Update (Johnny Hughes) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2017 16:39:01 -0700 From: Jason Brooks <jbrooks(a)redhat.com> To: atomic-devel <atomic-devel(a)projectatomic.io>, atomic-announce(a)projectatomic.io, centos-announce(a)centos.org, "The CentOS developers mailing list." <centos-devel(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] CentOS Atomic Host 7.1706 Released Message-ID: <CAF=rfpCf=i8TZL5Kaf-UJVs5XUZ77Hhi9U6rfFitoJbYiff94g(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" An updated version of CentOS Atomic Host (tree version 7.1706), is now available. [1] CentOS Atomic Host is a lean operating system designed to run Docker containers, built from standard CentOS 7 RPMs, and tracking the component versions included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host. [1] https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic/Download CentOS Atomic Host is available as a VirtualBox or libvirt-formatted Vagrant box, or as an installable ISO, qcow2 or Amazon Machine image. These images are available for download at cloud.centos.org. The backing ostree repo is published to mirror.centos.org. CentOS Atomic Host includes these core component versions: - atomic-1.17.2-9.git2760e30.el7.x86_64 - cloud-init-0.7.5-10.el7.centos.1.x86_64 - docker-1.12.6-32.git88a4867.el7.centos.x86_64 - etcd-3.1.9-1.el7.x86_64 - flannel-0.7.1-1.el7.x86_64 - kernel-3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64 - kubernetes-node-1.5.2-0.7.git269f928.el7.x86_64 - ostree-2017.5-3.el7.x86_64 - rpm-ostree-client-2017.5-1.atomic.el7.x86_64 Containerized kubernetes-master The downstream release of CentOS Atomic Host ships without the kubernetes-master package built into the image. Instead, you can run the master kubernetes components (apiserver, scheduler, and controller-manager) in containers, managed via systemd, using the service files and instructions on the CentOS wiki. The containers referenced in these systemd service files are built in and hosted from the CentOS Community Container Pipeline, based on Dockerfiles from the CentOS-Dockerfiles repository. These containers have been tested with the kubernetes ansible scripts provided in the upstream contrib repository, and they work as expected, provided you first copy the service files onto your master. Alternatively, you can install the kubernetes-master components using rpm-ostree package layering using the command: atomic host install kubernetes-master. Upgrading If you're running a previous version of CentOS Atomic Host, you can upgrade to the current image by running the following command: $ sudo atomic host upgrade Images Vagrant CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Libvirt.box and CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Virtualbox.box are Vagrant boxes for Libvirt and Virtualbox providers. The easiest way to consume these images is via the Atlas / Vagrant Cloud setup (see https://atlas.hashicorp.com/centos/boxes/atomic-host) For example, getting the VirtualBox instance up would involve running the following two commands on a machine with vagrant installed: $ vagrant init centos/atomic-host && vagrant up --provider virtualbox ISO The installer ISO can be used via regular install methods (PXE, CD, USB image, etc.) and uses the Anaconda installer to deliver the CentOS Atomic Host. This image allows users to control the install using kickstarts and to define custom storage, networking and user accounts. This is the recommended option for getting CentOS Atomic Host onto bare metal machines, or for generating your own image sets for custom environments. QCOW2 The CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-GenericCloud.qcow2 image is suitable for use in on-premise and local virtualized environments. We test this on OpenStack, AWS and local Libvirt installs. If your virtualization platform does not provide its own cloud-init metadata source, you can create your own NoCloud iso image.

Still fighting the IPv6 client dying...
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 19 Jul '17

19 Jul '17

Well, we're still fighting it, and one thing I've discovered that I find extremely odd: the IPv6 lease file. On my C7 workstation, if I grep -c lease6, I see 5 leases; on a C6 server, I see 9, and in the last few days, I saw my box - they mass restarted the IPv6 clients everywhere yesterday, because a good number of systems had lost the client. Can someone explain why there would be more than, say, 2 or 3 lease6's in the least file? mark

Ark can't handle RAR archive

Hi, I'm running CentOS 7 with KDE. Ark can't seem to handle a RAR archive, even though I have unrar from the Nux repository installed. Any idea what's wrong here?

Installing support for Chinese text in Centos 7
by H 18 Jul '17

18 Jul '17

I have just done a minimal installation of Centos7 followed by X Windows and the Mate desktop on a workstation. Although the default language is English, I would like to be able to write Chinese text in various applications. I seem to remember this was very easy to do in Centos 6 and Gnome: possibly only requiring only a simple 'yum groupinstall "Chinese Support"' after which I could use iBus to switch between languages. This does not seem to work in Centos 7. Suggestions? Thank you.

CentOS 7 + KDE: sleep mode?
by Nicolas Kovacs 16 Jul '17

16 Jul '17

Hi, One of my clients is running CentOS 7 + KDE 4.14 which I installed for her. Everything is running nicely. She asked me - more out of curiosity - if she could use the "Sleep" mode instead of "Shutdown" like she did when she ran Windows, so the PC would be up and running faster the next time. I didn't know what to answer, since I don't explicitly use this mode. Only on my laptop I simple shut the lid, which puts the laptop into Sleep mode. But on a normal PC, I don't know if this mode is supposed to be used. Any suggestions?

CentOS 7, NM, and IPv6
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 14 Jul '17

14 Jul '17

Hi, folks, I and the other admin here have just been assigned a mission... here's what's happening: only very recently - the last week? our CentOS 7 boxes, or at least some of them, will lose their IPv6 addresses, and not get it back. 1. We're running dibbler on the same box that serves DHCP. 2. It's been working for many months. 3. The lease file remains in place. 4. It appears to try, several times, and then give up - as our manager puts it, "I to renew the lease", "Here it is","Nope, don't like that, try again", and eventually, after 4 or 5 or so tries, gives up. One very show-stopping result of this is that NFS starts timing out. So: has anyone else seen this behaviour recently, and does anyone have some idea of what might be going on here? mark

Postfix fails after reboot
by Chad Cordero 14 Jul '17

14 Jul '17

I am running CentOS 7 as an outbound gateway using Postfix, OpenDKIM, and SASLAuthd. The trouble is Postfix fails if OpenDKIM and SASLAuthd aren’t already running and I have to manually restart these services in order. My question is, should I modify my After line in the “[Unit]” section of my postfix.service file to read “After=syslog.target network.target opendkim.service saslauthd.service” or is there a better way to accomplish this? --- Chad Cordero Information Technology Consultant Enterprise & Cloud Services Information Technology Services California State University, San Bernardino 5500 University Pkwy San Bernardino, CA 92407-2393 Main Line: 909/537-7677 Direct Line: 909/537-7281 Fax: 909/537-7141 http://support.csusb.edu/ --- Disclaimer: This e-mail message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information protected from disclosure.

Perhaps some administrative issue that still needs to be fixed? Regards, Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this. Is there a location to upload paid for RPM for distrubution, ie a store for CentOS? Is there a discription of how to create your own RPM repository for distrubution? What about updates of these RPM?

If this is a SuperMicro box then you can contact their support to if there is a BIOS update that deals with this issue. After an update to one our SM rack units its fans sounded like a jet taking off. This turned out to be a known problem and the final fix was a BIOS update from SM. -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail Do NOT open attachments nor follow links sent by e-Mail James B.

old hardware / minimal netinstall -> CPU fan control
by Gary Stainburn 12 Jul '17

12 Jul '17

I have just installed CentOS 6 i386 onto an old rack server (it's gonna be a Bacula storeage server and is a 1U 1/2 depth chassis) I did a minimum netinstall and so far so good. However, I have one problem. The CPU fan is going at full speed constantly. Not a real problem apart from (a) it will affect the fan's lifespan and (b) it's noisy. I've done some Googling and found some help. I've installed lm_sensors and run sensors-detect. After reboot I get the following: [root@harpo ~]# sensors acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +40.0°C (crit = +75.0°C) [root@harpo ~]# which implies that it can read the CPU temp, but the fan is still going at full speed. Can anyone suggest what I need to do next to enable fan speed control? [root@harpo ~]# more /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors # Generated by sensors-detect on Tue Jul 11 11:49:07 2017 # This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to # be loaded/unloaded. # # The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables: # HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally # BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI). HWMON_MODULES="w83627hf" # For compatibility reasons, modules are also listed individually as variables # MODULE_0, MODULE_1, MODULE_2, etc. # You should use BUS_MODULES and HWMON_MODULES instead if possible.

chkconfig madness CentOS 7
by Mark Haney 11 Jul '17

11 Jul '17

I have a couple of in use C7 boxes that were built with ntsysv and chkconfig for some old packages that needed to start using init.d. (The person setting these up didn't know about systemd creating service files for older packages, so we're stuck with these as-is. Here's my problem: Error unpacking rpm package chkconfig-1.7.2-1.el7.x86_64 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /etc/init.d: cpio: rename chkconfig-1.3.61-4.el7.x86_64 was supposed to be removed but is not! I can't update the entire system because of this boondoggle and I can't come up with a way to resolve this safely on a running system. WTH is going on, and why is this a problem?

Azure Centos Images
by Andrew Holway 11 Jul '17

11 Jul '17

Hello, I was wondering if there is any plan to support an official image for the Microsoft Azure cloud platform? Currently there is a third party publisher "OpenLogic" providing an Centos image but I don't know who they are. Redhat is providing a RHEL 7.3 template and Canonical is providing Ubuntu. I see that a comprehensive set of AMI's are maintained for Amazon Web services. https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/seller-profile?id=16cb8b03-256e-4dde-8f3… Cheers, Andrew

I found this interesting: amount of evil traffic on the internet
by Fred Smith 11 Jul '17

11 Jul '17

I've just done a little "study" (well, nothing quite that pretentious) of the traffic hitting my router, that gets DROPped the router's firewall. there is a surprisingly (to me, at least) enormous amount of it. over about the last 3 weeks, it has dropped over 65,000 connection attempts. I finally got around to figuring out how to have the router's logging mechanism connect to the rsyslog on my Centos workstation, so I can collect a large body of log entries to review. previously I could see only a few hundred at a time, since the router doesn't have huge storage. Here's just the first few items from the list, listed as port number ordered by total number of hits: DPT=3343 8859 DPT=23 7872 DPT=3344 5984 DPT=6 4925 DPT=68 4291 DPT=9 2625 DPT=3291 2524 DPT=32915 2523 DPT=143 2467 DPT=1433 2377 DPT=445 2037 DPT=33441 1544 DPT=33442 1522 DPT=33440 1511 DPT=33434 1511 DPT=33435 1487 DPT=33436 1486 DPT=33437 1476 DPT=33439 1458 DPT=33438 1439 DPT=80 1068 DPT=33443 1060 DPT=5060 948 Some of those are ports I've never been aware of, such as 3343, which /etc/services lists as "ms-cluster-net". Obviously something on MS systems, and apparently a lot of mal-dudes think it's a great port to hit on, in case it might just happen to be wide open. then there's port 23 (telnet) which at 7872 hits is ample evidence for why everybody who knows anything says to NEVER put a system on the internet with an open telnet port. sigh. Then, even after all this garbage is filtered out, there is another HUGE pile of things hitting my mail server that get filtered out by a variety of filtering techniques including but not limited to greylisting email. (BTW, greylisting was by far the most effective of all the filtering techniques I've found for dropping spam before it ever gets into my mail system. For mail that does get in, SpamBayes works great, once one figures out how to configure it.) If any of you don't believe that the 'net is populated by evil beings, let this be a lesson to ye!

System Start-Up Issue
by Chris Olson 11 Jul '17

11 Jul '17

We run several Intel-based CentOS machines. They are all at 6.9 or 7.x. One of each OS is Oracle VirtualBox hosted on an up to date Windows 7 system. We use these virtual machines for checkout of new applications before they are loaded on native CentOS platforms. Regular weekly updates are run on all of our CentOS machines. I went on vacation right after an update to one of our virtual CentOS 6.9 systems so it was not restarted for a period of time. Now it will not complete boot-up with the gnome display never fully launched. A progress bar at the bottom of the start-up screen never reaches completion. We have not been able to detect a running system on the network. Two options for stopping the CentOS 6.9 virtual machine have been tried. One is to "power off" and the other is to "send the shutdown message". Both of these options appear to work properly. The shutdown output scrolls by very fast but it looks reasonable and the virtual machine eventually closes. We have also tried suspending boot-up and selecting two previous working kernels. This yields the same result of an incomplete start up. Shutdown of these old kernel systems appears the same as shutdown of the newest kernel. However, we have not been able to determine from any of the shutdown sequences exactly how much of the system was actually running. Having very little experience with such start-up issues, we are at a loss to determine how to salvage the CentOS 6.9 virtual machine. Is there a standard way to start up a system without any extras like gnome to see if we can get a running system? Would it be wise to attempt using yum update after we get a running system to see if issues are corrected? Thanks.

Differences in CentOS and RHEL systems
by Kumuda G 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

Hi, I was looking at the differences between the CentOS and RHEL systems, found that tuned profile is different for these OSes. I have gone through RHEL 7 Performance Tuning Guide to see if there are more such changes, sysctl settings change which are due to tuned profile and did not find any other differences Also took diff of /etc/* config files on RHEL and CentOS installed systems, there are RHEL subscription and bugzilla references which vary So, are there more such system wide differences on CentOS?

CentOS 7.3 and e1000e
by Jerry Geis 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

Hi All - I have a box running the above. Power was lost long enough that UPS did not work. When power came back on the C7 box boots way faster than the switch and resulted in no network. power cycling the C7 box resulted in network. This even happened a second time. The only way to get the box back was to power cycle. the box is remote and no keyboard and mouse connected. Any thoughts on why the e1000e would not talk to the switch ? The switch is an unmanaged linksys - could not get the model. It auto negotiates to 1G/full. Thanks, for any thoughts. Jerry

Hardening Apache on CentOS 7
by Nicolas Kovacs 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Hi, Some time ago one of my public servers (running Slackware64 14.0) got attacked and was misused to send phishing emails. This misadventure made me more concerned about security, so I spent the last few weeks catching up on security, reading docs about SELinux and how to use it, etc. I have a public sandbox server running CentOS 7, and I'm currently experimenting quite a lot with Apache and how to secure it. My approach is very much trial-and-error. I've started with these two articles: https://devops.profitbricks.com/tutorials/how-to-harden-the-apache-web-serv… https://www.tecmint.com/apache-security-tips/ I've also discovered the Nikto vulnerability scanner, and I'm playing around with it. Besides all this, I'd be curious to know your approach in securing Apache, the tools you use, maybe the odd do's and don'ts, suggestions, some good books and/or online docs about the subject, etc. Cheers from the sunny South of France, Niki -- Microlinux - Solutions informatiques durables 7, place de l'église - 30730 Montpezat Web : http://www.microlinux.fr Mail : info(a)microlinux.fr Tél. : 04 66 63 10 32

performance problems with OpenLDAP and multiple simultaneous clients
by John Jasen 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Running CentOS7, with openldap-2.4.40-13.el7. The environment consists of two ldap providers, in mirror mode, serving over a shared virtual IP. Client-facing services are provided by 4 consumers, most of which are accessed over a layer 4 load balancer. Periodically, the consumers encounter some sort of client request(s) which consume all available threads, cause backload threads to spike, and cause slapd to go unresponsive for a long period of time. I've no idea what is causing these events, or if there is anything in the configurations that I can tweak to help. Anyone have any ideas?

Apache + mod_evasive : problem with test.pl
by Nicolas Kovacs 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with the mod_evasive module for Apache, to protect the server against potential DoS attacks. Here's what I did so far. # yum install mod_evasive Don't touch mod_evasive's default configuration, just restart Apache. # systemctl restart httpd The package includes a test.pl script supposed to launch a testing DoS attack. Unfortunately this script doesn't seem to work as expected. Here's the only response I get: # perl test.pl HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request ... According to the various online tutorials I found, this should more look like: # perl test.pl HTTP/1.1 200 OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK HTTP/1.1 200 OK ... HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden ... I tried this on two sandbox machine, one on my LAN, one on a public server, and both times I got the same result. Any suggestions? Niki -- Microlinux - Solutions informatiques durables 7, place de l'église - 30730 Montpezat Web : http://www.microlinux.fr Mail : info(a)microlinux.fr Tél. : 04 66 63 10 32

mdraid doesn't allow creation: device or resource busy
by adam_kalisz 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

Dear fellow CentOS users, I have never experienced this problem with hard disk management before and cannot explain it to myself on any rational basis. The setup: I have a workstation for testing, running latest CentOS 7.3 AMD64. I am evaluating oVirt and a storage-ha as part of my bachelors thesis. I have already been running a RAID1 (mdraid, lvm2) for the system and some oVirt 4.1 testing. Now I added 6x 500 GB platters from an old server running Debian 8 Jessie with software RAID of a similar fashion as well. That would unexpectably prevent the system from booting past something like (I copied it from the working setup), I ran it over night, so it was actually about 16 hours: "A start job is running for dev-mapper-vg0\x2droot.device (13s / 1min 30s)" Can it be just some kind of a scan, which takes so long? The current throughput based on time (16 h) and capacity (3 TB) would be about 50 MBps. (Those drives can be pretty slow when writing, dd showed about 30 MBps, the write cache is off.) This is actually repeatable. If I unplug those drives and boot again, it all works. I don't know, if it helps but before that I had two screens full of: "dracut-initqueue[331]: Warning: dracut-initqueue timeout - starting timeout scripts" Well, I proceded without this array, and after it booted I connected the array of 6 hard disks again. They were recognized etc. The problem is, I cannot do much. I can dd from and to the harddrives, I can create and delete partitions but I cannot create an md raid array out of them, I cannot create a physical volume or format them with a filesystem. I even tried overwriting all of those harddrives with zeroes, which worked but didn't help at all with the creation of the array afterwards. mdadm --create /dev/md6 --level=5 --raid-devices=6 /dev/sd[cdefgh]1 "mdadm: cannot open /dev/sdc1: Device or resource busy" with pvcreate, it seems as if there was no device, but I clearly see it in /dev/sdc1... "Device /dev/sdc1 not found (or ignored by filtering)." partprobe yields: "device-mapper: remove ioctl on ST3500630NS_9QG0P0PY1 failed: Device or resource busy Warning: parted was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/mapper/ST3500630NS_9QG0P0PY (Device or resource busy). This means Linux won't know anything about the modifications you made. device-mapper: create ioctl on ST3500630NS_9QG0P0PY1part1-mpath- ST3500630NS_9QG0P0PY failed: Device or resource busy device-mapper: remove ioctl on ST3500630NS_9QG0P0PY1 failed: Device or resource busy" In some forums, it was suggested, dmraid (yes, the old) could be the trouble. I eliminated this hypothesis (overwritten all with zeroes, fakeraid was never present with these disks). Also multipathd/ dm_multipath could be the trouble, someone suggested. The problem is, if I was to remove device-mapper-multipath, I would loose oVirt-engine, because it has multipath as dependency for some reason. Do you have any ideas? What logs/ information should I provide if you want to have a look into this. Best regards Adam Kalisz

Extreme frustration with GIMP
by Alice Wonder 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

I am not a graphics person. Also can't afford to hire one. Trying to follow instructions at https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tutorial-quickie-separate.html I use the "intelligent scissors" just like they say, spend quite a bit of effort doing so. Then click the foreground select tool - just like they say - and suddenly everything I did with the intelligent tool is undone. WTF? Does anyone know of an actual GIMP tutorial for removing background that doesn't cause me to throw a damn brick through my monitor? Photoshop makes it easy, but clearly GIMP developers have a completely different philosophy on how a graphics tool should work and I can't figure out what their philosophy is.

Web server files ownership?
by Nicolas Kovacs 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

Hi, I have a series of websites hosted on two CentOS 7 servers, using Apache virtual hosts. One of these servers is a "sandbox" machine, to test things and to fiddle around. On the sandbox server, I have a few dummy websites I'm hosting. # ls /var/www/html/ default phpinfo slackbox-mail slackbox-site unixbox-mail unixbox-site Since Apache is running as system user 'apache' and system group 'apache', I thought it sensible that hosted files be owned by that process. # ls -l /var/www/html/ total 24 drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 09:37 default drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 10:01 phpinfo drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 09:41 slackbox-mail drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 09:37 slackbox-site drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 09:42 unixbox-mail drwxr-x---. 3 apache apache 4096 6 juil. 09:38 unixbox-site Directories are all drwxr-x---, while files are -rw-r-----. Now some guy on the french forum fr.centos.org told me that I got everything wrong, and that my setup is a security flaw, without elaborating any further though. So I thought I'd ask on this list (which is a little bit more urbane than the french forum). 1. What is wrong with my setup ? 2. What do you suggest ? BTW, I don't mind to RTFM, even extensively.

C7 and spoofed MAC address
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

Got a problem: a user's workstation froze. He wound up rebooting, without calling me in first, so I dunno. But, and this is a show-stopper, when it came up, it came up with the firmware MAC, not the spoofed one. In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcg-eth0, I've got the spoofed MAC address, and a UUID. In the grub.conf, I've got net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0. But when I logged onto his machine, ip a showed eth0... but with the firmware MAC. And I'm wondering if it went to renew its IP address, and lost the spoofed MAC. That might explain his freezes. Anyway, does anyone have any idea if there's some networkmangler or systemd configuration that would force it to pay attention? Note that my hack to fix it was ifdown eth0/ifup eth0, and it's fine. mark

ntsysv and chkconfig update error
by Mark Haney 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

We have a couple of CentOS 7 boxes that were built before I was hired to clean up the kickstart script used for C7 boxes. We had a couple of rpm packages that were pre-C7 that were used and setup the old SysV Init way using ntsysv and chkconfig on these boxes. (I finally fixed that in the newer scripts.) These are out in the field and I'm having to deal with them as they are. One thing I'm having trouble with is updating them without this error: > Error: Package: ntsysv-1.7.2-1.el7_3.1.x86_64 (updates) > Requires: chkconfig = 1.7.2-1.el7_3.1 > Installed: chkconfig-1.3.61-4.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda) > chkconfig = 1.3.61-4.el7 > You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem > ** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows: > ntsysv-1.7.2-1.el7.x86_64 has missing requires of chkconfig = ('0', > '1.7.2', '1.el7') Now, I've verified the chkconfig v1.7.2 package is available on the mirror we're using, I've rebuilt the RPM database and nothing has worked. I'm not even sure what the problem is at this point. Anyone have any ideas? -- Mark Haney Network Engineer at NeoNova 919-460-3330 option 1 mark.haney(a)neonova.net www.neonova.net

A was trying to add LD_LIBRARY_PATH as taken from "enable" script, but it doesn't seems to work (in log i have still python 2.7.5). Is it possible? -- Marcin Trendota

logical volume is unreadable
by Volker 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

Hi all, one of my lv has become completely unaccessible. Every read access results in a buffer io error: Buffer I/O error on dev dm-13, logical block 0, async page read this goes for every block in the lv. A ddrescue failed on every single block. $ lvdisplay --- Logical volume --- LV Path /dev/vg0/lv-vm-tviewer LV Name lv-vm-tviewer VG Name vg0 LV UUID XdgHFs-RHVZ-9BAH-1ZSK-yiBX-qqf0-273CtT LV Write Access read/write LV Creation host, time host1, 2016-02-06 14:58:19 +0100 LV snapshot status INACTIVE destination for lv-vm-tviewer_vorigin LV Status available # open 0 LV Size 58.59 GiB Current LE 15000 COW-table size 5.86 GiB COW-table LE 1500 Snapshot chunk size 4.00 KiB Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 8192 Block device 253:13 Other lv on the same volume group are healthy. In fact the whole host runs on the same vg and does not show any problems. Physical volume is a md raid1 device which is also healthy, as well as its hard disks. The faulty lv is used as the storage device for a qemu vm, which suddenly stalled when the io-errors appeared on the host. Is the any way to diagnose this problem? (centos 7) Regards .....Volker
