CentOS 4 with MySQL 4.1
by Chris Hammond 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Greetings all! I have built a new server with MySQL and have noticed that before even doing anything to it I found that the MySQL logins were much slower than the 4.0 server I used prior to it. After moving data over to it, the application, (JFFNMS) when it would login to it would take forever getting data from it. It would finally get to a point where MySQL would not respond to anything including MySQLAdministrator. So I removed the 4.1 version that came with CentOS 4, I downloaded and installed the latest 4.0 version from the MySQL website and installed it and it is very fast even after moving the data to it. The problem I have is that I need php-mysql and perl-DBD-MySQL and when I install these two rpms, it removes the MySQL-server and MySQL-client rpm's that I retrieved from the MySQL website. So I am at a loss of what to do. I would prefere to go with MySQL 4.1 just because that is what comes with CentOS 4, short of that I need php-mysql to work with 4.0. Databases and custome building of RPM's is beyond my capabilities. Any assistance will be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks Chris

DNS server with MySQL Backend
by Bob Pierce 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Just a quick question, Does anybody know of a good DNS server with MySQL backend? We're currently looking at MyDNS. Has anybody had any experience with MyDNS or other MySQL driven DNS servers under heavy load? Also, can anybody recommend a good DNS benchmarking utility? Thanks for your help, Bob.

Anyone know if there is an ETA for RHEL4 U1 yet? There are a couple of important postgresql selinux fixes that haven't been prereleased for x86_64 that I'm after. Cheers, Gavin

system management - what do you use to manage your CentOS systems?
by Enoch West 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Greetings everyone. Let me preface this with the following, I know this is not specific to CentOS but I do value the input given by *many* of the users on this list. I can not think of a more appropriate place to ask these questions. Let me just break down my setup: 20 CentOS 4 servers, all running apache. The only things that are unique on each server are the network settings and the apache virtual host config files, other then that, they are identical. I'm not using any networked file systems, content is synchronized via rsync. NFS is not able to provide adequate performance in our environment. I wanted to get some feedback to see what other people here use to manage their CentOS systems, apply updates, roll out new software packages, update unique config files etc. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. -- enoch

yum & proxy
by Mário Gamito 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Hi, I've just installed a server with CentOS 4. This server is behind a proxy. I'm trying to import the RPM key. Already set http_proxy variable to: export "http_proxy"=http://proxy.xpto.com:3128 Truth is, command # rpm --import http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-4 just leaves me hanged. Any ideas ? Warm Regards, Mário Gamito

NFS over ssh problems
by Harald Finnås 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

I've got a setup where I run nfs over ssh on several distros, and it's been working like a charm on suse, mandrake, redhat 7-9 etc, but I've been unable to get it to work on CentOS. First I set up ssh portforwarding using: /usr/bin/ssh root@<remotehost> -L 250:irc.dynip.no:2049 -f sleep 60d & Then I mount using the following params in fstab: localhost:/somedir /somedir nfs rw,tcp,hard,intr,port=250,mountport=251 0 0 I can telnet to port 250/251 and it answers like expected. I can also see the packets travelling through the tunnel using tcpdump. However, if I try to mount the dir (mount -a), I get this error: mount to NFS server 'localhost' failed: server is down. Sniffing on port 22 when running the mount command, nothing happens. It kinda seems like it ignores the port/mountport options. Any ideas? Regards, Harald

Default CentOS 4 desktop
by Chris Hammond 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Simple question that I appear to be missing the answer to, how do I specify the default desktop? I know I am probably going to kick myself when I find out but the guy I work with and I just can't seem to find it. :( Thanks Chris

RE: [Centos] Apache Web Server mod_jk configuration

Im getting the following error No JkShmFile defined in httpd.conf. LoadBalancer will not function properly! I running centos 3.4 , apache 2.something, and jakarta-tomcat-connector 1.2.10 Thankx for help in advance Vaneet -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of Troy Engel Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 1:50 AM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] Apache Web Server mod_jk configuration Vaneet Sharma wrote: > i downloaded this connector > jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk-1.2.6-linux-fc2-i386-apache-2.0.50.so > from tomcat link : > http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/linux/j k-1.2.6/ I recommend not using download binaries, and taking a few moments to compile your own from the source tarball. Download: http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-connectors/jk/source/jk-1.2.8/ jakarta-tomcat-connectors-1.2.8-src.tar.gz I haven't had a chance to work with the brand new (5 days old) 1.2.9 yet, so stay with 1.2.8 for now. - Make sure 'httpd-devel' RPM is installed, and that you have the j2sdk installed somewhere on your system (/usr/local/java). - Untar the mod_jk source above, and compile: - cd jakarta-tomcat-connectors-1.2.8-src/jk/native - ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-java=/usr/local/java - make You will have a ./apache-2.0/mod_jk.so file ready to use that matches your Apache perfectly. Put this in your modules directory. > and after that i followed the procedure of configuration described in connector section at apache.org website. > > NOTE: i did not configured this connector. ( because it is binary and i dont think i need to configure or compile) You have to do two things: connect apache<=>mod_jk, and configure mod_jk<=>tomcat.
