Evolution & HTML
by Bob Taylor 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

I've noticed several HTML emails that evo says are unknown attachments with a blank page on message display. Selecting Edit as New Message results in seeing the email in the composer. Anyone seeing this? CentOS 5.2. -- Bob Taylor

Q about CentOS-4
by Craig White 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

I have a client with a server on CentOS-4 and I'm looking to upgrade to latest horde/imp/etc. clearly php 4.3.9-xx is not up to the task but I see that upgrades for php & mysql are in CentOS-Plus I see that CentOS-4 projects to get security updates until 3/2012 which probably is the usefulness of the hardware itself. So my questions... - Will CentOS-Plus maintain the php/mysql packages until then? - The upgrade to mysql-5...do I have to nuke the db and reload from backup or is there a possibility that the upgrade and subsequent restart of mysql will update the database stuff itself (of course I'm gonna do a complete dump of mysql data before attempting)?

Samba permissions problem
by Kevin Thorpe 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Hi all, I have a permissions problem with a samba share which I really can't fathom out. I'm trying to create a fully group writable share. Easy or so I thought. As you can see from my config I am trying all the options to set files group writable, however when I create a file from the client I'm always getting the mode 0644. Does anyone have a clue why? Thanks! client: //database.pricetrak.com/spendtrak /home/spendtrak cifs username=webserver,password=twonkerlet,uid=apache,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770 0 0 server: [spendtrak] comment = Spendtrak Files path = /home/spendtrak browseable = no writable = yes printable = no valid users = +spendtrak force group = spendtrak create mode = 0660 create mask = 0660 force create mode = 0660 directory mode = 0770

Problems with building an rpm
by Robert Moskowitz 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

I followed the setup instructions from http://www.owlriver.com/tips/non-root/ (link from the Centos wiki). All this is done on another 'clean' system, so I have to read the terminal screen there and tell what went wrong here. I then followed my colleague's instructions to get the tar, untar, autogen, configure, and finally make rpm. Well it was that make rpm command that finally failed. And sudo was the problem. I got a message something like: Assuming that you are in /etc/sudoers!!!! And then asked for a password. Which password? My userid or root's? I tried both and after 3 tries got: me is not in sudoers file. This incident will be reported. removing '/home/me/rpmbuild/BUILD/hipl--main--2.6/hipl-1.0.4' So I look at /etc/sudoers and do not understand what I am suppose to do there. A bit of help would be greatly appreciated! oh, and what is BEET support in the kernel?

perl bless/overload performance problem
by Amos Shapira 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Hello, How do people here handle the situation mentioned in RH bug #379791 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=379791)? We have a web site built using Perl Catalyst which warns about this issue. So far we managed to avoid this by not upgrading the perl package handed to us as part of an old Xen image based on CentOS 5.0, but we are now building the Xen guests without this image and generally want to keep our package up to date for security. So - is there another package available to install instead of the CentOS 5.2 version? I tried before to compile the Fedora 9 package from source but despite it being claimed to have it patched it still demonstrated the buggy behaviour (using the sample test code mentioned in the bug report). Thanks, --Amos

Cluster: understanding virtual IP
by Dirk H. Schulz 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Hi folks, I have set up a cluster on CentOS 5.2 using /etc/cluster/cluster.conf - and it works fine. It's only purpose is to switch a virtual IP between two routers. Now the service is running, I can ping the virtual IP from outside - but this virtual IP is not bound to any interface. How does this work? Can I force the cluster to bind it to a certain interface? I need this because the routing daemon (xorp) does not make use of an ip address that is not bound to an interface. Any hint or help is appreciated. Dirk

Getting printer to work under 5.2
by Donald Buchan 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Hi I have a standard hplip install on my 5.2 box installed from the repos (it originally was installed from the 5.1 disks and followed any upgrade that may have occured in the transition to 5.2). My printer is a HP Deskjet F4180 connecting via USB. I can't get the printer to work. Documents manually printed from the file menu in OO.o 2.3 stagnate in a print queue, while the print icon produces an unspecified error. The cups daemon is running (it has been stopped and restarted a couple of times, along with a reboot just to be sure even though I knew it likely wouldn't affect things.) The standard hplip was uninstalled, and mannually installed from the HP website, with all dependencies resolved (rather frustrating to go through five dependency installs one at a time since the manual install of hplip only mentions them one at a time. :) ) This still didn't work. The manual install was uninstalled and the standard install from the repos was reinstalled. The OS does seem to detect the printer, at least when it's on; I have turned it on, unplugged it, and plugged it back in and on at least one occasion it was automatically detected. The printer does work; I used an Ubuntu 8.04 live cd and printed a test page straight off the bat without any modifications. Using a Dell P4 2.8 Optiplex (don't quite remember the exact model number ... gotta reboot for that to see the initial screen. :) ) Any ideas? (No, I won't install Hardy Heron, even if it is LTS. :) )

Is this just a case of my local upstream mirrors being out of sync or have I got a bigger problem. Thanks, Tony

yum remove <old kernel pkgs> -- wants to remove a ton of stuff
by fred smith 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

I've got a Centos 4 box at work, where I noticed a pile of old kernels lying around and no longer needed. I did "rpm -qa | grep -y kernel > list" then edited the list to remove from it the newer kernels, then "yum remove `cat list`". Yum has come up with a list of 71 packages it wants to remove, even though there were only 33 kernel-related RPMs in the list. this doesn't seem right to me, as it is trying to remove a bunch of KDE files, net-snmp stuff, freeradius, etc. I show the entire list below. This certainly does NOT seem right to me. Anyone care to enlighten me? Given that it wants to do this, I'm thinking I'd be better off to just do "rpm -e `cat list`" instead.
