Problem when opening files after installing OpenOffice 3.1 on CentOS 5.4
by Mathieu Baudier 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Hi, I have installed OpenOffice 3.1 downloaded from the openoffice.org website on CentOS 5.4 x86_64. The downloaded file is actually an archive containing RPMs. I did not use their setup tool but installed directly the RPMs I was interested in via 'yum localinstall' (my idea is in the future to put them on a custom yum repository, so that they can be managed via regular yum install / update). It works fine, except that when I double-click on, say, *.odt files in the file browser I get the following exception: Cannot open xxxxxxx.odt The filename "xxxxxxx.odt" indicates that this file is of type "odt document". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "OpenDocument Text". If I do a right-click, Open with... > Open Office Writer 3.1, it opens the file properly. 1. Did anybody already experienced that? 2. Do you know where I can manage the file types in GNOME? I have already added Open Office 3.1 as the default application to open such files (Right-click, Properties > Open With) Thanks in advance! Mathieu

no valid partitiontables anymore
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Hi, recently I had to shut down an iscsi-raid an the connected servers. After the reinstallation and changing the ip config to match our new lan design, I can login to the iscsi device, the volumes are there and I can establish an iscsi link to some volumes. But, some other volumes on the iscsi device are reported with an invalid partition table or that they can't be mounted. e.g.: fdisk -l /dev/sdf Disk /dev/sdf: 53.6 GByte, 53687091200 Byte 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 51200 cylinders Einheiten = Zylinder von 2048 × 512 = 1048576 Bytes Gerät boot. Anfang Ende Blöcke Id System /dev/sdf1 1 51200 52428784 83 Linux fdisk -l /dev/sdf1 Disk /dev/sdf1: 53.6 GByte, 53687074816 Byte 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 51199 cylinders Einheiten = Zylinder von 2048 × 512 = 1048576 Bytes Disk /dev/sdf1 doesn't contain a valid partition table mount -t ext3 /dev/sdf1 /export/iscsi01-UDV1/ (lot of german information, e.g. wrong fs-type, damaged superblock ...) mount: Falscher Dateisystemtyp, ungültige Optionen, der Superblock von /dev/sdf1 ist beschädigt, fehlende Kodierungsseite oder ein anderer Fehler Manchmal liefert das Syslog wertvolle Informationen – versuchen Sie dmesg | tail oder so dmesg ... VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sdf1. But I'm sure, about using ext3. The error message is the same with maount -t ext2 (for testing) Any hint would make my happy Thanks a lot an best regards, Götz -- Götz Reinicke IT-Koordinator Tel. +49 7141 969 420 Fax +49 7141 969 55 420 E-Mail goetz.reinicke(a)filmakademie.de Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH Akademiehof 10 71638 Ludwigsburg www.filmakademie.de Eintragung Amtsgericht Stuttgart HRB 205016 Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrats: Prof. Dr. Claudia Hübner Staatsrätin für Demographischen Wandel und für Senioren im Staatsministerium Geschäftsführer: Prof. Thomas Schadt

lvm and device nodes
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Hi, my iscsi volumes are all lvm created :-) But the server(s) dont have the device nodes any more. So how may I create tham again? Or ist there an lvm-tool (option) to do this for me? e.g. for: --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VGJBOD01/lvol0 VG Name VGJBOD01 LV UUID IK35sK-bL9B-MeMv-2co6-XtOd-RCxK-lUpank LV Write Access read/write LV Status NOT available LV Size 4,77 TB Current LE 1251375 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto Any hint would make my happy!

PHP 5.2.x
by Craig White 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

I am trying to install GOsa and it seems to need PHP 5.2 So I searched CentOS Plus but no luck So I downloaded the src RPM from Fedora 11 and tried to build but got derailed early on in the process with these errors... + cat /usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 \ /usr/share/aclocal/ltoptions.m4 \ /usr/share/aclocal/ltsugar.m4 \ /usr/share/aclocal/ltversion.m4 \ /usr/share/aclocal/lt~obsolete.m4 cat: /usr/share/aclocal/ltoptions.m4: No such file or directory cat: /usr/share/aclocal/ltsugar.m4: No such file or directory cat: /usr/share/aclocal/ltversion.m4: No such file or directory cat: /usr/share/aclocal/lt~obsolete.m4: No such file or directory error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.28181 (%build) and I can't figure out where those might come from with yum provide/search Are there reliable repositories for PHP 5.2 for CentOS 5? Is there some way I can get this to build on CentOS 5? Craig -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

32bit development on x86-64
by Roger K. Wells 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

We develop software and are beginning a slow transition from 32 bit applications to their 64 bit equivalents. During this period it will be necessary to build programs targeted for both environments using the x86-64 machines for development. here is a simple/small "application", sizes.c: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { printf("Various sizes:\n"); printf(" short = %d\n", sizeof(short)); printf(" int = %d\n", sizeof(int)); printf(" long = %d\n", sizeof(long)); printf(" float = %d\n", sizeof(float)); printf(" double = %d\n", sizeof(double)); return 0; } if I build it using: gcc -m32 -Wall -osizes sizes.c there are no warnings or complaints and a functioning 32 bit program runs, giving the size of a long as 4 bytes. (Of course without the m32 flag the size of long is 8 bytes.) if I try to do the equivalent in two steps: gcc -c -m32 -Wall sizes.c gcc -osizes -Wl,-m,elf_i386 sizes.o the result is: /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/libgcc.a when searching for -lgcc /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/libgcc.a when searching for -lgcc /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc collect2: ld returned 1 exit status there is some confusion in the man pages as to whether the correct 32 bit emulation is elf_i386 or i386linux so: gcc -osizes -Wl,-m,i386linux sizes.o gives result: /usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--eh-frame-hdr' /usr/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information collect2: ld returned 1 exit status since the single line command works it seems that there must be a way to get the job done. This becomes important when there are many source files and use of a traditional makefile is involved where compiling and linking are separate steps.

Lost raid when server reboots
by carlopmart 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hi all, I have setup a raid1 between two iscsi disks and mdadm command goes well. Problems starts when i rebooted the server (CentOS 5.4 fully updated): raid is lost, and i don't understand why. "mdadm --detail --scan" doesn't returns me any output. "mdadm --examine --scan" returns me: ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=9295e5a2:b28d4fbd:b61fed29:f232ebfe and it's ok. My mdadm.conf is: DEVICE partitions ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 metadata=0.90 UUID=9295e5a2:b28d4fbd:b61fed29:f232ebfe devices=/dev/iopsda1,/dev/iopsdb1 MAILADDR root mdmonitor init script is activated. Why md0 is not activated when I reboot this server? How can I do this persistent between reboots?? Many thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

screwed up dependencies
by ken 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Subsequent to trying to "yum update"-- it failed--, I tried to resolve the dependencies piecemeal: # yum update faad2 .... --> Processing Dependency: libfaad.so.0 for package: ffmpeg ---> Package faad2.i386 0:2.7-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution ffmpeg-0.5-2.el5.rf.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: libfaad.so.0 is needed by package ffmpeg-0.5-2.el5.rf.i386 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: libfaad.so.0 is needed by package ffmpeg-0.5-2.el5.rf.i386 (installed) .... # rpm -q ffmpeg ffmpeg-0.5-2.el5.rf Could it be that there's a packaging error in faad2 ? -- War is a failure of the imagination. --William Blake

About the tar extract signal directory~~
by Majian 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hi,all: I've couple of large tarballs such as www.tar and images.tar. Is it possible to extract a single file or a list of files from a large tarball such as images.tar instead of extracting the entire tarball? How do I extract specific files under Linux / UNIX operating systems? Thanks in advance ~~
