systemd not restarting daemon
by Chris Adams 26 Aug '16

26 Aug '16

On an up-to-date CentOS 7 system, I am running named-sdb (pulling domain records from MySQL), which is segfaulting randomly (after 3-8 hours or so it appears) in libmysqlclient (I've opened a bug). Since this is an internal service, until the segfault can be addressed, I wanted systemd to restart it for me. I created a file called /etc/systemd/system/named-sdb-chroot.service.d/service.conf with: [Service] Restart=always in it. I did "systemctl daemon-reload" and restarted the service, but systemd is not restarting it. It knows it died, because that's in the log (and it ran the chroot cleanup service): Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: named-sdb-chroot.service: main process exited, code=killed, status=11/SEGV Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: named-sdb-chroot.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1 Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: Unit named-sdb-chroot.service entered failed state. Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: named-sdb-chroot.service failed. Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: Stopping Set-up/destroy chroot environment for named-sdb... Aug 25 12:03:39 dnssql systemd: Stopped Set-up/destroy chroot environment for named-sdb. I see the file listed in the output of systemd-delta, so I know it is being seen. Any idea why systemd isn't restarting it? -- Chris Adams <linux(a)cmadams.net>

Email pid issue
by Jay Hart 26 Aug '16

26 Aug '16

Hello gents, First time poster here! Current system running Centos 6.8. Buddy of mine posted a few days back about me wanting to move from Postfix 2.6.x to 2.8 to above, still under centos 6.8. I might move over to 7, but probably not for a while, don't have the resources presently to make this happen. Running Centos 6.8, postfix 2.6.6, clamav 0.99.1. Basic Centos 6.8 box fully patched using stable repos. ____ISSUE_____ Logwatch is reporting this error, which I'm going to assume has been occurring for a few years but doesn't affect sending/receiving emails, so I haven't chased it down, now I'm looking to fix that. 1 (06498-19) ClamAV-clamd: All attempts (1) failed connecting to /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock, retrying (1) Since this is reported by "ClamAV-clamd", I am assuming this is coming from amavisd.conf. My logic on this is that a grep search for that particular string only shows up in the /etc/amavisd.conf file, when its calling the scanner. Pasted code from file below: @av_scanners = ( ['ClamAV-clamd', \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock"], qr/\bOK$/m, qr/\bFOUND$/m, qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/m ], Best I can determine /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock file exists. So, not sure what is causing this or why, or how to fix. Here is /var/spool/amavisd contents: [run]# ls -al /var/spool/amavisd/ total 64 drwxr-x--- 7 amavis amavis 4096 Aug 21 19:10 . drwxr-xr-x. 15 root root 4096 Mar 15 2012 .. srwxr-x--- 1 amavis amavis 0 Aug 21 19:10 amavisd.sock srw-rw-rw- 1 amavis amavis 0 Aug 21 19:10 clamd.sock drwxr-x--- 2 amavis amavis 4096 Aug 21 19:10 db drwxr-x--- 2 amavis amavis 36864 Aug 21 19:50 quarantine drwxr-x--- 2 amavis amavis 4096 Aug 21 09:23 .razor drwx------ 2 amavis amavis 4096 Aug 21 20:42 .spamassassin drwxr-x--- 4 amavis amavis 4096 Aug 21 20:42 tmp Seems to be owned by the right group, I rebooted at 19.10 today hence timestamp date/time. So, my question is, what do I need to do to eliminate this error? How can I chase it down? TIA, Jay

Centos 7 and php 5.5
by Richard B. Pyne 25 Aug '16

25 Aug '16

I am hoping that the wisdom of the group here can at least point me in the right direction. I have a Centos7 server that I need to upgrade php from 5.4 to 5.5. I've tried several tutorials to add the remi repository and enable php55, but I always end up at the same result: Error: Package: php-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55) Requires: httpd-mmn = 20051115 Installed: httpd-2.4.6-40.el7.centos.4.x86_64 (@updates) httpd-mmn = 20120211 httpd-mmn = 20120211x8664 httpd-mmn = 20120211-x86-64 Available: httpd-2.4.6-40.el7.centos.x86_64 (base) httpd-mmn = 20120211x8664 httpd-mmn = 20120211-x86-64 httpd-mmn = 20120211 Available: httpd-2.4.6-40.el7.centos.1.x86_64 (updates) httpd-mmn = 20120211x8664 httpd-mmn = 20120211-x86-64 httpd-mmn = 20120211 Error: Package: php-pecl-jsonc-1.3.10-1.el7.remi.5.4.x86_64 (remi) Requires: php(api) = 20100412-64 Removing: php-common-5.4.45-11.el7.remi.x86_64 (@remi) php(api) = 20100412-64 Updated By: php-common-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55) php(api) = 20121113-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.el7_1.x86_64 (base) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.1.el7_2.1.x86_64 (updates) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.3.el7_2.x86_64 (updates) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.45-10.el7.remi.x86_64 (remi) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.5.37-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55) php(api) = 20121113-64 Error: Package: php-pecl-jsonc-1.3.10-1.el7.remi.5.4.x86_64 (remi) Requires: php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Removing: php-common-5.4.45-11.el7.remi.x86_64 (@remi) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Updated By: php-common-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55) php(zend-abi) = 20121212-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.el7_1.x86_64 (base) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.1.el7_2.1.x86_64 (updates) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-36.3.el7_2.x86_64 (updates) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.45-10.el7.remi.x86_64 (remi) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.5.37-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55) php(zend-abi) = 20121212-64 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest If I try --skip-broken, I get: Packages skipped because of dependency problems: gd-last-2.2.3-1.el7.remi.x86_64 from remi libpng12-1.2.50-7.el7_2.x86_64 from updates libzip-last-1.1.3-1.el7.remi.x86_64 from remi php-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-cli-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-common-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-gd-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-mbstring-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-mcrypt-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-mysqlnd-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-pdo-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-pecl-jsonc-1.3.10-1.el7.remi.5.4.x86_64 from remi php-pecl-zip-1.13.4-1.el6.remi.5.5.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-process-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 php-xml-5.5.38-1.el6.remi.x86_64 from remi-php55 Error: Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root cause is something else and multilib version checking is just pointing out that there is a problem. Eg.: 1. You have an upgrade for php-common which is missing some dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to solve this by installing an older version of php-common of the different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package requires what). You can try redoing the upgrade with --exclude php-common.otherarch ... this should give you an error message showing the root cause of the problem. 2. You have multiple architectures of php-common installed, but yum can only see an upgrade for one of those architectures. If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you can remove the one with the missing update and everything will work. 3. You have duplicate versions of php-common installed already. You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors. ...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing much more problems). Protected multilib versions: php-common-5.5.37-1.el6.remi.x86_64 != php-common-5.4.45-11.el7.remi.x86_64

Stopping NetworkManager doesn't shut down network interfaces
by Joe Smithian 25 Aug '16

25 Aug '16

Hi All, When I stop NetworkManager using the "systemctl stop NetworkManager", it doesn't bring network interfaces down. This behaviour is different than network service in CentOS 5/6. Is this the expected behaviour or a bug or configurable? I expected all networking to be shut down down after stopping NetworkManager. Please comment.
