From LiveCD, mount hda1 gives resource busy
by Neil Aggarwal 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Hello: I booted from the CentOS 4.4 CD. I am trying to mount the partitions on the hard drive of the physical machine (Fedora Core). I did: mkdir /mnt/hda1 chmod 755 /mnt/hda1 mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 I get back: mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /mnt/hda1 busy I checked with df. I don't see hda1 anywhere. Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (214)986-3533, www.JAMMConsulting.com FREE! Eliminate junk email and reclaim your inbox. Visit http://www.spammilter.com for details.

UPS question
by Ashley M. Kirchner 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Hello folks, I'm about to install Centos on a new server and this will be my first "exposure" if you will to Centos. I come from an RH/Fedora background. Anyway, is there a list somewhere that will tell me what UPS batteries are compatible with Centos 4 (brand/model)? I figured before I go out and buy something I better check to see what's supported. Thanks. -- A -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.

3ware cards and new firmware in 9.4.1 codeset
by Scott Silva 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

I just saw the following in the release notes for the new firmware for the later 3ware cards; Improved CIFS performance The firmware has been tuned to greatly increase performance with CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol. However, this has resulted in performance with the Linux ext3 file system that is slower than earlier releases. We recommend that you use other Linux file systems, such as XFS. So it looks like ext3 performance would be worse. What are they thinking? They are going to drive linux people away. -- MailScanner is like deodorant...

CentOS 4 - prevent X from installing?
by tony＠softins.clara.co.uk 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

So, I've just gone through a enw CentOS 4.4 install. I selected the "Custom" installation type, and then in the part for selecting which packages to install, I specifically did NOT select X, Gnome or KDE, nor any of the graphical tools. However, when it finished installing and rebooted, I still ended up with X installed, a graphical login screen and default run level of 5. Does anyone know which default packages might have caused X Windows to have been dragged in? I'll do some digging, but I had an idea this might be a common problem.

Hi Firstly apologies but i have to install an app that uses postgres but i am more a MySQL/Oracle guy so i maybe doing something really wrong here.. I am following instructions for creating a DB user and encountering this # createuser -ADP -U postgres foo Enter password for new user: Enter it again: createuser: could not connect to database template1: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "postgres" In a standard postgres install whats causing this? I presume its because the user postgres has a pwd but what is this and why am i not being prompted to enter this? Thanks and apologies as i know this is not directly a CentOS problem

Balance of tcp traffic
by devel 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Hello, Anyone know a method to discriminate traffic by preference?, for example this channels: High preference traffic. Low preference traffic. All traffic in the same interface eth0, and two servers in the same machine, one in slow channel and one in high preference channel. When high preference channel is not used low preference channel should be caught all line speed. Anyone know if tc command can help to make this? -- -- Publicidad http://www.pas-world.com

ClaSS (ClaSS Student System) - error
by Indunil Jayasooriya 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Hi, I want to set up a Student Tracking system. So I installed ClaSS (ClaSS Student System). I set it up according to the README file. After configuring, I had to do a few things via web browser to configur the database by using the below URL. http://localhost/class-site/class/install/ Therafter I got the below info and I also had to fill a little bit. Welcome to the ClaSS Installation script. What you are doing. You should have already unpacked class into the top-level of your web directory. You should have already created a MySQL user account (with full privileges) to connect to the MySQL server. You will need to give a name for the ClaSS database you want created and of a separate password for ClaSS to use when connecting to MySQL. Need I say you should be running Firefox as your browser (with Javascript and Cookies switched to on). In other words, you need to know what you are doing... If you would like any further help or documentation please refer to the Your MySQL Account. Please supply details of an existing administrator's account on the MySQL server you are installing to. Name of host machine: User-name: Current Password: The ClaSS MySQL Account. The database to be created could be called anything but usually related to the school it serves. WARNING: any existing database on this server with that name will be forever overwritten! You may want to back-up first. A new MySQL account will be created for ClaSS with limited privileges. Be aware that if you have other installations of class running on this MySQL server then changing the ClaSS Connection Password here WILL STOP them connecting. In that case you must use the same password here! Name of ClaSS Database: ClaSS Connection Password: Re-enter Connection Password: Go Install. If you have completed all the above information: I configured the database. Then, It gave a sucessfull message. Then, Finnaly, I had to browse with below URL. http://localhost/class-site/ But , I got a blank page. Why is that? Is anybody out there runnging ClaSS? ClaSS documentation says, below list is fine with ClaSS. PEAR::DB 1.6.2 PHP 4.3.10-13 Apache 1.3.33 MySQL 4.0.24 But, My list is aliitle bit diffrent. I am running apache 2.x on CentOS 4.4. Can You help me? Can you also tell me some of open source student tracking systems. BUT RPMS are prefered. ClaSS home page is below. http://www.laex.org/class/index.html Downloaded form below URL http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=113286 -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya
