obtuse-smtpd & Postfix
by Manuel Leon 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hi, people. I want to thank every one in the list, specially to Barry Brimer and Bill Campbell for their good advices. I will install CENTOS 5.1 and will try their recommendations. I must state that I would like to use Postfix in my box and I think it will fulfill the needed requisites (if I learn first what are "smtpd_restrictions_classes" and the other tips I received .. J ). Thanks to all, again. M. Leon

Help to restore mysql data on CentOS 5
by Indunil Jayasooriya 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hi , Help is needed to restore mysql data This is the the setup. 2 Servers running on CentOS. one server has both apache an mysql. the other server only has mysql database. This server has about 12000 records in the database. Last week, It had about 6000 records. then, Someone has backed up these 6000 records to the web server. Now , We need to backup all 12000 records to the webserver. How to archive this task? If I restore these 12000 records to the web server, it already has 6000 records. Then, whall will happen? Shoud I override them? Remember, this is a PRODUCTION SERVER.. I should do it properly. I think I will have to do following steps. first, I will have to dump the mysql server backup from database server. This is the command I will have to enter from the database server. * mysqldump -u root -p databasename > database.txt* then, I will have to mount a flash drive and copy *database.txt* to the flash drive. Then, I will have to go to the web server and mount it there. Then, finnaly, I have to restore *database.txt* to web server as follows. *mysql -u root -p databasename < databas.txt* Am I RIGHT? This data is extremely essential. I should be able to do it properly. Any IDEAS? -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya

CentOS 4.5 - ProLiant DL585 G2 - Mouse Issue
by Tom Brown 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hi OK another issue trying to get X going on these boxes. It seems to be a HP issue but if anyone knows a solution that would be great. I am using the iLo interface and the hpmouse-1.1.0-73.noarch.rpm driver. As root i can startx and all is well, however when starting X as the oracle user it fails with the following error Exec fail for command "/opt/hp/hpmouse/hpmouse-helper" Permission Denied This is indeed only accessible by root it seems so does anyone know how non root users are supposed to use the mouse on HP boxes? thanks

CentOS 4.5 (RHEL 4.5) - x86_64 - Login issue
by Tom Brown 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hi Strange problem here i think but - I can ssh in to the box fine as root and other users eg oracle BUT i am trying to login to the console to install oracle using X but i cant and i see this in the logs hostname su(pam_unix)[20237]: session closed for user oracle and also hostname login[19841]: Module is unknown so the pwd is not accepted and the connection on the console terminated straight away. I have added this to my pam.d login file session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so So i presume this is what is causing the issue but does anyone know which module may be missing? # rpm -qa | grep pam pam_ccreds-3-3.rhel4.2 pam-0.77-66.21 pam_krb5-2.1.8-1 pam_smb-1.1.7-5 pam_passwdqc-0.7.5-2 thanks

Cannot boot after upgrading to Centos 5.1
by Mogens Kjaer 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

My local centos mirror (ftp.crc.dk) failed to boot after having upgraded from centos 5.0 to 5.1 (i386). It just displays GRUB The cursor is positioned to the right of a space after GRUB, and no input is accepted. I've tried booting in rescue mode and run: chroot /mnt/sysimage grub-install /dev/cciss/c0d0 This completes without errors, but still it can't boot. It's a HP/Compaq Proliant ML370 with a smartarray 5312 controller. HELP!

Can't build CentOS 5.1 kernel from source
by MHR 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

I pulled down the kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.src.rpm source to build my usual custom kernel (adds NTFS wwrite support) and it does not build. Whether I include the NTFS or just build from the source with no changes (other than make oldconfig and adding the # x86_64 line), I get this error every time: Building modules, stage 2. + mkdir -p /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/usr/lib/debug/boot + mkdir -p /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/usr/lib/debug/boot + mkdir -p /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/boot + install -m 644 .config /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/boot/config- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx + install -m 644 System.map /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root /boot/System.map-2.6.18-53.el5.nx + touch /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/boot/initrd- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx.img + cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-53.el5.nx + '[' -f arch/x86_64/boot/zImage.stub ']' + '[' '' == kdump ']' + mkdir -p /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/lib/modules/2.6.18- 53.el5.nx + make -s ARCH=x86_64 INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-rootmodules_install KERNELRELEASE= 2.6.18-53.el5.nx + echo '**** GENERATING kernel ABI metadata ****' **** GENERATING kernel ABI metadata **** + gzip -c9 + chmod 0755 /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kabitool + '[' '!' -e /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kabi_whitelist_x86_64 ']' + cp /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kabi_whitelist_x86_64 /var/tmp/kernel- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/kabi_whitelist + rm -f /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-kabideps + /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kabitool -b . -d /var/tmp/kernel- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx-kabideps -k 2.6.18-53.el5.nx -w /var/tmp/kernel- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/kabi_whitelist nm: net/decnet/built-in.o: no symbols nm: net/dccp/ccids/built-in.o: no symbols nm: net/dccp/built-in.o: no symbols nm: sound/core/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/isdn/hardware/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/i2c/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/media/dvb/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/media/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/scsi/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/net/wireless/built-in.o: no symbols nm: drivers/message/built-in.o: no symbols + echo '**** kABI checking is enabled in kernel SPEC file. ****' **** kABI checking is enabled in kernel SPEC file. **** + chmod 0755 /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/check-kabi + '[' -e /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/Module.kabi_x86_64 ']' + cp /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/Module.kabi_x86_64 /var/tmp/kernel- 2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/Module.kabi + /home/rpmbuild/SOURCES/check-kabi -k /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-53.el5.nx-root/Module.kabi -s Module.symvers *** ERROR - ABI BREAKAGE WAS DETECTED *** The following symbols have been changed (this will cause an ABI breakage): cfi_varsize_frob unregister_mtd_chip_driver cfi_read_pri register_mtd_chip_driver mtd_do_chip_probe do_map_probe + exit 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.2757 (%build) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.2757 (%build) Should I exclude the kabi (and if so why is it not excluded by default)?
