Red Hat Directory Server + Fedora Directory Server version correlation?
by Rubin 17 Apr '07

17 Apr '07

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone knows about version-number correlation between RHDS and FDS. I've sofar been quite unable to find anything about it. The latest version of seems to be 7.1SP3: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ And the latest version of FD seems to be 1.0.4: http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Download Most sources I could find state that "FDS and RHDS are identical" but don't delve deeper. So, is FDS 1.0.4 equal to RHDS 7.1SP3? If not, what happens to bugs fixed in FDS? Are the features the same in FDS and RHDS? Greets, Rubin.

Yum issue on CentOS 5, x86_64
by Styma, Robert E (Robert) 17 Apr '07

I just loaded CentOS 5 on a new x86_64 machine I built for my wife. I am converting her from the dark $ide. :-) I started getting the following messages from yum: ]: yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

I tried the normal "rpm is damaged" sequence of: rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* db_verify /var/lib/rpm/Packages rpm --rebuilddb But that did not help the situation. Are there any suggestions on how to get rid of this one piece and get past this error? I tried a -f on the rpm -e and it failed the same way. Bob Styma

MySQL 5.0.22 on CentOS 4.4
by Joseph Cheng 17 Apr '07

17 Apr '07

Hi...I was pleased to see MySQL 5.0.22 and PHP5 in CentOS 5.0 and as much as I need these updates I think I should be safe and not upgrade until CentOS 5.1 is released. But for now I am running CentOS 4.4 with stock MySQL and PHP rpm packages. I need to upgrade MySQL to 5.0 and I noticed there is a mysql-server- 5.0.22-1.centos.1.i386.rpm package in the centosplus directory. There is also a mysql-server-5.0.27-1.el4.centos.i386.rpm package but I think I should stick to .22 so that the eventual upgrade to CentOS 5.1 will be easier. I have two questions for any of the MySQL administrators running CentOS 4.4... 1. What has been your experience like with the mysql-server-5.0.22- 1.centos.1.i386.rpm centosplus package on high load sites? 2. Is it better to just use the official RPM from MySQL instead? http://mysql.org/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.0/MySQL-server-community-5.0.37- 0.rhel4.i386.rpm/from/pick My concern with the official MySQL rpm is that it's version 5.0.37 and will be different from the one in CentOS 5.1 So for now I think I would like to use 5.0.22 with stock PHP 4.3.9 then later upgrade PHP to version 5.1 also from centosplus. Any performance or stability reason not to? Please share your experience and opinions. TIA!
