Upgrading Java on CentOS 4.5
by Scott Moseman 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

# rpm -qa | grep -E '^(java|jdk|jre)-' jre-1.6.0_03-fcs java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-27jpp jdk-1.6.0_03-fcs java is a CentOS package. jdk and jre are from Sun. (I need Java >= 1.5.0 for an application I'm installing.) # update-alternatives --config java There are 1 programs which provide 'java'. Selection Command ----------------------------------------------- *+ 1 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/java But how do I tell my system to use the 1.6.0 version? Is there a step that I'm missing to finish the upgrading? Thanks, Scott

Anyone have Auctex for CentOS 5. I found RPMs for el4 but would rather use EL5 RPMs possible. -- James A.

yumgroups.xml
by Scott A. McClanahan 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

Not sure if I'm overlooking this somehow but is there a yumgroups.xml file for the [base] repository in CentOS 5? I've checked a few mirrors and didn't see it and a `yum grouplist` with only the base, updates, and extras repositories enabled looks like this: Setting up Group Process Setting up repositories base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 comps.xml 100% |=========================| 912 kB 00:00 Failed to add groups file for repository: base yumgroups.xml 100% |=========================| 6.8 kB 00:00 Installed Groups: Yum Utilities Available Groups: FreeNX and NX Horde XFCE-4.4 Done I must be missing something obvious. Thanks.

Trying to create a custom initrd that will work with PXE Booting
by Clint Dilks 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

Hi, I am trying to create a custom initrd that will work with PXE Booting on CentOS release 4.5 (Final) and Fedora Core 6. Can anyone point me to some documentation that will help with this ? The specific situation is that we have received some machines that need the latest e1000 Driver from Intel in order to detect the network card. If I install the systems without network and then do rpmbuild -tb e1000-7.6.9.tar.gz a RPM is built and can be installed, and the Network card works fine as soon as you load the new e1000 Module. But we could be receiving a number of these systems so a Kickstart installation is required. I have tried installing the version of the kernel uses during kick start installs and then creating and installing the e1000 rpm and then updating the pxe initrd with the version of e1000.ko that is created but still the the card isn't detected. Another thing I have tried is creating a respin using Pungi and then using the PXE images that this generates but still no joy. I do know that the Card works fine with CentOS 5 and Fedora 7. Aside from upgrading to these does anyone have any suggestions? :) Thanks

drbd
by John R Pierce 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

trying to follow the ha-drbd HOWTO on the centos wiki... I prep two identical systems with centos 5, leaving some disk space unassigned (they only have one scsi drive), create /dev/sda4 partitions on each to use for the repdata... I install the modules, create a /etc/drbd.conf like... [root@svfis-blade03 ~]# more /etc/drbd.conf # # please have a a look at the example configuration file in # /usr/share/doc/drbd/drbd.conf # global { usage-count no; } resource repdata { protocol C; startup { wfc-timeout 0; degr-wfc-timeout 120; } disk { on-io-error detach; } # or panic, ... net { cram-hmac-alg "sha1"; shared-secret "(random secret)"; } # don't forget to choose a secret for auth ! syncer { rate 10M; } on svfis-blade03.(my intranet domain) { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/sda4; address 10.5.160.93:7788; meta-disk internal; } on svfis-blade05.(my intranet domain) { device /dev/drbd0; disk /dev/sda4; address 10.5.160.95:7788; meta-disk internal; } } I run drbdadm create-md repdata on both systems... I start the drdb daemon on both systems... and /proc/drbd says... [root@svfis-blade03 ~]# cat /proc/drbd version: 8.0.4 (api:86/proto:86) SVN Revision: 2947 build by buildsvn@c5-i386-build, 2007-09-29 06:28:57 0: cs:Connected st:Secondary/Secondary ds:Inconsistent/Inconsistent C r--- ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 resync: used:0/31 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0 act_log: used:0/127 hits:0 misses:0 starving:0 dirty:0 changed:0 and I can't promote blade03 to primary. [root@svfis-blade03 ~]# drbdadm primary repdata State change failed: (-2) Refusing to be Primary without at least one UpToDate disk Command 'drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 primary' terminated with exit code 11 what am I doing wrong?!? the howto shows the disk state as UpToDate/Inconsistent, which is what I'd expect. Do I have to use a physical device (/dev/sdb in the example) instead of a partition?

by Manuel Enrique Chavez Manzano 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

I've been downloading a software for a friend with wget, but as my connexion to internet is not so good, wget downloaded in three parts by example: SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe.1 SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe.1.1 My question is: Is there any way to join all of this or Do I have to download that again? Hope an answer thanks to all manny -- "Nuestra recompensa se encuentra en el esfuerzo y no en el resultado. Un esfuerzo total es una victoria completa".

Hosed my software RAID/LVM setup somehow
by Kai Schaetzl 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

CentOS 5, original kernel (xen and normal) and everything, Linux RAID 1. I rebooted one of my machines after doing some changes to RAID/LVM and now the two RAID partitions that I made changes to are "gone". I cannot boot into the system. On bootup it tells me that the devices md2 and md3 are busy or mounted and drops me to the repair shell. When I run fs check manually it just tells me the same. mdadm --misc --detail tells me that md2 and md3 are active and fine. I wanted to comment out the md2 and md3 devices in fstab (and hoped then be able to boot) but I get a "read-only" warning when writing to it although mount tells me that / is mounted rw. What can I do to boot into the system (the system is on /dev/md1 and seems to be fine) or repair it? The history of the changes is as follows. Originally I had several software-RAID 1 partitions /boot / /home /home2 on /dev/md0 etc. At the time of creation I didn't know I could use LVM on RAID partitions. Yesterday I activated LVM on md2 and md3 as they didn't contain anything valuable and put some data on them. What I did is unmount, then remove from RAID, then initialized LVM, then created the RAID devices again, then created the Volume Groups and Volumes, added mount points etc. All succeeded without errors and was working well thereafter. I worked several hours with data and xen virtual machines on the LVM partitions. The LVM management was done with the LVM manager in Gnome (as I'm not very familiar with LVM), the other stuff was done in a terminal. I assume something is wrong with the LVM setup or LVM doesn't start at all. What/how can I check? Thanks.
