If the CD is designed for doing diagnostics, it seems odd to me that there are two Seagate utilities included, but neither of them is capable of doing diagnostics or testing. (I know this is offtopic, just posting here since someone here suggested using the CD) -- Bowie

Crontab not working....
by Ian mu 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Hiya all, just found an odd one on one of our boxes, cron isnt working (for a user anyway, but can't seem to get it running properly at all), i.e if I do a crontab -e as a user (who is in /var/spool/cron) and add 19 10 * * * /bin/touch /home/logadmin/testfile (has permission) its never created. Also I get no mails from cron to /var/spool/mail/root so guessing maybe cron not working at all, can't find any errors in logfiles relating to it either. ps -ef shows crond running however, have tried restarting it via service crond restart which shows fine in logs as started Not sure what else to check? Any ideas much appreciated, Ian

vmware running with socket 939 and AMD
by rado 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Now this is getting exciting! Well, ya,I'm running vmware in 2 boxes. I am hoping this might help someone w/the config that follows: socket 939 mb AMD 3200+ clawhammer 1. do: # uname -r returns: 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL (CentOS 4.4 stock kernel) 2. edit /boot/grub/grub.conf: make the vmlinuz line look like: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb clock=pit quiet "clock=pit" is added. those are the only tweaks I did to produce a stable clock and get rid of that repeating kb problem. I made these tweaks 2 days ago (Sun). Monitoring it yesterday I never seen the time off more than 1 minute. but I didn't do any thing on that box yesterday. This morning I just changed the user back to rado and testing the key repeat issue right now. thx Les and Aleksandar for y'alls suggestions. John Rose

Hi all, I'm trying to setup this scenario on NFS and autofs on Centos 4.3: - useradd nfstest on an NFS server (192.168.1.247) - Setting up this NFS server /etc/exports: /home/nfstest 192.168.1.252/255.255.255.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash) - useradd nfstest on a client machine (192.168.1.252) - make sure that the uid and gid are the same on the server and the client - setting up /etc/auto.master: /home/nfstest /etc/auto.nfs --timeout=60 - setting up /etc/auto.nfs: * -rw,soft,intr 192.168.1.247:/home/& - Restarting portmap, nfs, nfslock on the server - Restarting autofs on the client - showmount -e localhost: /home/nfstest 192.168.1.252/255.255.255.0 - Try to logon using username on the client: nfstest But I've got this error: automount[5937]: >> mount: 192.168.1.247:/home/.bash_profile failed, reason given by server: Permission denied automount[5937]: mount(nfs): nfs: mount failure 192.168.1.247:/home/.bash_profile on /home/nfstest/.bash_profile automount[5937]: failed to mount /home/nfstest/.bash_profile automount[5939]: >> mount: 192.168.1.247:/home/.bash_login failed, reason given by server: Permission denied automount[5939]: mount(nfs): nfs: mount failure 192.168.1.247:/home/.bash_login on /home/nfstest/.bash_login automount[5939]: failed to mount /home/nfstest/.bash_login automount[5941]: >> mount: 192.168.1.247:/home/.profile failed, reason given by server: Permission denied And on the login screen shows only this: -bash-3.00$ Oh by the way, firewall is off.

That will give me a more definitive answer. The problem does sound external to the disks. Someone else suggested the power supply. I wouldn't suspect both cables to have problems, so that's probably not an issue. The controller is on the MB and I REALLY don't want to have to tear the machine apart to replace it. The errors have stopped for now. No more errors in the past four hours. At the moment all I can do is keep monitoring it. -- Bowie

RE: [CentOS] Missing dependencies
by Paul Malinowski 25 Sep '06

25 Sep '06

There are many ways to fix it, but IMHO the simplest one is to backup config, remove php-mysql, then yum update, and yum install php-mysql. It should be fine.
