General protection error
by Haakon Gjersvik Eriksen 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

G'morning, all Over the last few months I've had a few instances of log lines of the following type on a handful of servers: nscd[9301] general protection rip:2a9578dea0 rsp:405f1368 error:0 As far as I've been able to figure out, this is the kernel warning me that nscd has tried to write outside of its allocated memory. Since the current nscd is started at the exact same time as the log message, I suspect that the kernel killed the process and it was automatically restarted by our automatic host management system. This has happened to different processes than nscd, and the servers where I've seen it run CentOS 4.4 or 4.1, with kernel versions 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp, 2.6.9-42.0.10.ELsmp or 2.6.9-11.106.unsupportedsmp. I've not been able to find much relevant regarding what can be done about this, but I suspect that the general answer is "this is a bug in the application". If someone knows of any condition where this is more likely to appear than others, or any other debugging hints, I'd be happy to know about it. -- Haakon Gjersvik Eriksen -- Basefarm AS

cups foomatic error centos 5....
by Tom Bishop 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

I am trying to setup a local printer that I have working in centos4.4 on centos 5, this is a server install no X. I was able to get the cups webpage up and it sees the printer I configured it up but when I try to print to it i get the following error: "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed", I've searched and searched but can't find anything that helps. I would like to try to install it outside of cups but it appears they only have a GUI to add a printer. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated. Thanks.

by Sanjay Arora 03 Jun '07

Hello all Sorry for posting my query here, but did not have any success in getting feedback from linuxprinting.org/ openprinting.org forums. Planning to buy a new colour MFD or a Mono MFD & a Colour printer, for small buisiness office use. Could someone give feedback on HP Laserjet MFD M3027x and Laserjet 2840? Do all functions provided by the printers work on Linux? Any kinks? Do Network Fax features of M3027x work on linux? Any problems in scanning & saving to disk or rather, is there any gui for scanning etc. & especially checking ink levels other maintainence tasks? I use Fedora 6 and CentOS 4/5. Any other model recommendations? With best regards. Sanjay

RE: [CentOS] Desperate to upgrade from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4

Andy: I am using Evolution 2.0.2 on CentOS 4.4. When I upgrade to a newer release, I have *never* been able to get the Evolution Import routine to work for me. Importing from Evolution to Evolution has never seemed to work. I do it manually. I just read your post, several days after you posted. I have Custom mailboxes and I import everything, mail boxes, address book; one file at a time and I'm up and running in 10 or 15 minutes, with the newer version of Evolution. If you have not yet solved the problem, please post again and I will find my notes on this and try to help you. BTW, please do not cross post. Post in one mailing list and hopefully you will get an answer that works for you. If not, post somewhere else. Lanny in Colombia

I'd like to know whether a LiveCD for CentOS 5 is planned. Mike -- p="p=%c%s%c;main(){printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34);} Oppose globalization and One World Governments like the UN. This message made from 100% recycled bits. You have found the bank of Larn. I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you. I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
