java yum problem
by Ric Moore 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Error: Missing Dependency: /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers is needed by package java-1.4.2-gcj-compat I'm digging all over the place for this one. Has anyone a clue?? When I use: yum whatprovides /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers it returns: jpackage-utils.noarch : JPackage utilities I've installed this from several sources. Nothing seems to provide the rebuild thing. I've used mc to looking inside the rpms I've found and none have it. So, I would guess something else does.

Installing & activating mysql in CentOS 5
by Andrew Allen 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

I want to set up a local mysql server + client (preferably graphical, ie mysqlgui) so have yum installed both perl-DBI and mysql.i386, both apparently successfully. However, I can't see what to do next to get mysqld running, as it doesn't appear in the list of services (in /etc/init.d/). Help appreciated please - is there any good specific documentation on this anywhere? Also, what's the current opinion/advice on a graphical user interface for mysql please? Andy

Anyone on the list been able to get one of these to be seen by usb as a modem? lsusb lists it incorrectly, but I can manually load the sierra and usbserial modules. Me thinks they aren't quite up to support for this device yet, Thanks for any input, Terry

Re: [CentOS] cron job not working

The crond itself is being run as root. I am running the cron job as another user that has permission to run cron jobs. Note that if I change the program to print output to STOUT and run through cron, I get an email in that account with that output. === Al ----- Original Message ---- From: bruce <bedouglas(a)earthlink.net> To: CentOS mailing list <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2008 4:25:23 PM Subject: RE: [CentOS] cron job not working hey al... what are the privs that the cron is being run as. the cron should be root. what are the acls for the dir that you're writing to?? it's probably a simple priv/acl issue.... -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org]On Behalf Of Al Sparks Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2008 5:01 PM To: Centos List Subject: [CentOS] cron job not working Here's a perl script that works when I run it manually.

OT: Unix/Linux Training Online
by Matt 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

This is a bit off topic but I was interested in taking some online classes. I currently have an associates degree in electronics tech from about 15 years back but was wanting to expand on that and learn more about linux. Oreillyschool.com has a somewhat affordable online certificate course in UNIX/linux admin. The downside is I do not know if there credits would ever transfer if I wanted to build on that. Has anyone taken there course or know anyone that did? Is it worth a hoot? Is there a better option? Is a simple certificate worth that much anyway? Matt

Mounting a LVM partition from a linux live cd
by Matt Shields 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

I'm running CentOS 5.2, it uses LVM to manage the disks and we had a programmer do something (not sure what) then reboot the system. When it came up it kernel panicked. Luckily it's not production, it was their sandbox. But they didn't backup any of their files. I know the disks are fine because I was able to boot from a linux live cd and mount the /boot partition from the sda drive, and the sdb drive that has the mysql database mounted at /var/lib/mysql and not using LVM. What I don't know how to do is mount /dev/sda2 (root / partition) which is an LVM/ext3 partition. Does anyone have the steps to mount this drive while booted into a linux live cd? -- -matt

/dev/tty: No such device or address error in newly created CentOS 5.2 domU
by Rudi Ahlers 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi all, I setup a new CentOS 5.2 domU, on a CentOS 5.2 x64 XEN server, and then proceeded to install cPanel, which is a simple task of downloading http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest - and running it in the command line, as such: cd /home wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest sh latest. But, I get the following error: sh-3.2# sh latest Creating directory installd Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing cplyr1-cPanellatest: line 118: /dev/tty: No such device or address Terminated I have run MAKEDEV /dev/tty - but it didn't help me, I still get the error. So, how do I fix this? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers
