Just a hint: the new /6/ repo tree misses a signed repomd.xml for the cr/fasttrack subtrees. local config: # grep -R repo_gpg /etc/yum.repos.d/ /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-CR.repo:repo_gpgcheck=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:repo_gpgcheck=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:repo_gpgcheck=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:repo_gpgcheck=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-fasttrack.repo:repo_gpgcheck=1 Again, thanks for your great effort! -- LF

Roundcubemail 1.1.8 possible bug?
by Robert Moskowitz 06 Apr '17

06 Apr '17

I am installing Roundcubemail on Centos7-arm roundcubemail-1.1.8-1.el7.noarch The installer web app creates a config.inc.php to save within the /etc/roundcubemail/ directory. It warns that: "Make sure that there are no characters outside the <?php ?> brackets when saving the file." Thing is there is no ?> at the end of this. It is left out. So I got to add that myself. I should be able to just copy the content of the text box, and paste it into a cat > /etc/roundcubemail/config.inc.php, but I am left having to at least having to add the ending ?>

CentOS 7, systemd,, and message floods
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

I've just updated a couple of servers, latest 7.3, and systemd is flooding dmesg, journalctl with info level messages... or maybe debug level 1. Examples: [ 478.258571] systemd[1]: Sent message type=signal sender=n/a destination=n/a object=/org/freedesktop/systemd1/unit/httpd_2eservice interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties member=PropertiesChanged cookie=436 reply_cookie=0 error=n/a [ 478.258971] systemd[1]: Got notification message for unit systemd-logind.service [ 478.258980] systemd[1]: systemd-logind.service: Got notification message from PID 821 (WATCHDOG=1) [ 478.258985] systemd[1]: systemd-logind.service: got WATCHDOG=1 What *is* all that garbage, and is there some way to turn it down to WARN and ERR messages? mark

Timezone and date
by Jerry Geis 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

When I do the date +%Z I get the timezone. Which currently is EDT. I am sending information to another system, that says EDT is not a valid timezone. I have no way to modify the other system. My question is - is there a way to get the non-day-lite savings time zone ? For example EST is valid - EDT is not. Just curious if there is an easy way already present to get a standard time zone. Thanks, - I know weird situation the other end not supported EDT. Jerry

Xorg problem
by Rosenthal, Shoshana 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

I updated to Centos 6.8. Every thing is working, except Xorg does not startup. When I look at top, it seems that Xorg keeps trying but not succeeding to start. Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks Shoshana Rosenthal srosenthal(a)cfa.harvard.edu

Compiling custom "vmlinuz" PXE kernel?
by Locane 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

Hello CentOS list, I still need help. Does anyone know how I would go about creating my own "vmlinuz" PXE kernel? I'm still trying to get the NUC6CAYH to load to a LiveCD, and I'm getitng nowhere with Intel. My company wants to do hundreds of these per month; we're not above paying for professional help at this point. My current line of reasoning is to get whatever specialized memory and CPU drivers the NUC6CAYH requires to recognize properly and bake them in to a custom vmlinuz PXE kernel that loads the initial ramdisk image. This kernel is located in a regular CentOS 7.3 DVD at CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1611/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz. Has anyone done this before? Is there documentation online?

sound problems... config?
by ken 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

The www has failed me with this, so I'm trying you guys. Sound worked great out of the box when I installed 7.2... Yay! I could watch all kinds of videos, like on facebook and youtube. And I could listen to most podcasts too. But then something happened. It was either a kernel upgrade or that I installed vlc (for watching videos on DVD) and the whole stack of codecs for it... I don't know exactly when, but at some point I no longer had sound with youtube and other web videos. The videos played fine, just no sound. Note that using vlc, both video and the audio with it play just fine. I need to select the audio driver (from a list in a vlc menu), however, else the sound won't work in vlc either. If I go into the Applications menu, then System Tools -> Settings -> Sound, under "Choose a device for sound output:" there are no devices listed. There used to be. If I run "aplayer file.wav", nothing plays (no sound at all) and I get the error "main:786: audio open error: No such file or directory". If, on the other hand, I run "aplay file.wav -D plughw:0" (i.e., specify the/a device), I do get sound, the file does play. I ran alsa-info.sh and it posted tons of info from it on my setup at http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=1dba91886be054df4816000768a0f5b109947a48. Yet it still doesn't tell me what's missing. Anyone here have an idea...? or thoughts about where to look next? tia, ken

libreoffice vs. PDF fillable forms
by Michael Hennebry 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

On centos 6, I've been trying to use LibreOffice to fill in entries of a PDF with fillable forms. In addition to all my other problems, the font size is stuck on 24. I can change it, but whenever I so much a take a deep breath, it's back to 24 again. How do I stop this? So far, all my searches have given me stuff about making fillable forms, but nothing about dealing with existing ones. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards

M.2 PCI-E card
by Alice Wonder 04 Apr '17

04 Apr '17

Hello list, My instinct says the vast majority will "just work" but I'll ask anyway. I need a low profile PCI-E card that allows for up to 2 M.2 SSD drives that is known to work with the stock kernel in CentOS 7. Can anyone recommend one? Thanks
