Thanks everybody, but I still can't find the server log(s)!
I've looked at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and it says the following
about location of the error log:
# ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
# If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a 
# container, error messages relating to that virtual host will be
# logged here.  If you *do* define an error logfile for a 
# container, that host's errors will be logged there and not here.
#
ErrorLog logs/error_log

But when I look for files with the name error_log I don't see anything
which looks like a (plain text) server error log file - and there is no
such file in the /etc/httpd/logs directory. Where am I going wrong
please?

The current 3Ware software has an option to email errors.  You shouldn't

[CentOS] More on Linux on the OQO

[Robert Moskowitz]

I am going over:  ftp://ftp.oqo.com/unsupported/linux/OQOLinux.html

This is for the 'older' model 1, I have the model 2.  The files are 18 
mo old, and relate to kernel 2.6.10.  Of course I want to avoid a custom 
kernel, but please help me understand what is being covered here:


"2. Enable crusoe processor in kernel .config

CONFIG_MCRUSOE=y"

What is the crusoe processor?

3. Programs such as 'hwclock' synchronize on the RTC periodic interrupt 
for accuracy. We need to disable RTC IRQ support in the kernel as we 
don't get the periodic interrupt. In the kernel .config set 
CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ to 'y'. This enables the high performance event 
timer irq and in the process disables the rtc driver interrupt code:


CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ=y"

How do I do this with the Centos kernel?

"4. ACPI processor module (idle handler) interferes with transmeta 
longrun scaling. Set ACPI_PROCESSOR to 'n' or not set


# CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR is not set"


Does this mean I have acpi=none in the kernel line?  I really hope not.


"5. Kernel preempting option currently causes a bug to show up in the 
wifi drivers, turn it off


CONFIG_PREEMPT=n"

I would hope to be using the dkms madwifi stuff.  Do I need this?

"6. Download the latest rtl8150 drivers from CVS at: 
https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=15970. The drivers in the base 
2.6.10 tree will kernel panic upon removal of the dock. Copy the new 
driver to linux/drivers/usb/net/rtl8150.c"


Don't see this as a problem as Centos has rtl8150 support.

"7. In drivers/input/serio/i8042-io.h, add 'i8042_noloop = 1' in the 
function i8042_platform_init(). You only really need to do this if you 
have OQO subprocessor version 10/5 (It'll say 'EC Build 10/5' on BIOS 
post)."


What is this all about?

Still haven't actually tried an install.

Since you have "protect=0" in there, I'm guessing you are also using
the yum-protect plugin - this should not be used if you have the
yum-priorities plugin and are using it - they conflict.

[CentOS] OQO mod2 arrival

[Robert Moskowitz]

My OQO mod2s just arrived!  All 4 of them; portable testbed here it 
comes!!!  I hope


The units weigh in at ~.75lbs, and measure aprox. 5 5/8 x 3 3/8 x 1 1/8"

A little larger when you push up the 5" screen to reveal the keyboard.

WiFi, Bluetooth, HDMI, and a single USB built in; an adapter for VGA and 
Ethernet.  (WiMax extra, I think the touch screen is also optional and I 
did not get that).


The processor is a VIA C7-M 1.5Ghz processor, with 1Gb memory, and a 
60Gb harddrive.  XP pro installed.


From XP tools, I have learned that:

WiFi is - Atheros AR5006X5
Ethernet is - Realtek RTL8139
Video is - VIA/S3G UniChrome ProII IGP
Audio is - SigmaTel

Default screen res is 800x640 (can increase then use capacitor scroll bars).

I have not looked to see if I can get into the BIOS, I expect to be able 
to boot from a USB CDdrive (it comes with a recovery CD).


There are instructions on the net for installing UBUNTU 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OQO), but of course I want Centos on it.  
Should I be expect any supprises given what I have learned so far?



Minimally, these will be test units so only basic Gnome functionality 
and of course server stuff (wired, wireless, bluetooth) need to work.  
Would be nice to make one my traveling notebook as well.

[CentOS] Centos Kernel 4.7 Compile Help

[Steve Moccio]

Hello Everyone,

 

I wanted to recompile the kernel from source. I downloaded the
source rpm (kernel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.src.rpm) from centos and
installed the rpm. In /usr/src/redhat – I unzipped and untar’d
the linuxx-2.6.9 base files. After doing that I wanted to patch
the kernel with the numerous patch files that came with the src
rpm. 

 

The problem that I am having is that a lot of the patch files
fail – an example:

 

patch -p1 < ../linux-2.6.9-megaraid-update.patch

patching file drivers/scsi/megaraid/mega_common.h

Hunk #1 FAILED at 27.

1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file
drivers/scsi/megaraid/mega_common.h.rej

patching file drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_mbox.c

Hunk #1 FAILED at 10.

Hunk #2 FAILED at 217.

Hunk #3 FAILED at 244.

Hunk #4 FAILED at 286.

Hunk #5 FAILED at 340.

 

Is this not the right procedure for patching the kernel?

 

Any insight would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

  Steve

[CentOS] Need uuid rpm for CentOS-5.2

[James B. Byrne]

On my development system I have installed PostgreSQL 8.x from the
yum.pgsqlrpms.org repository.  I am getting a dependency error:


Error: Missing Dependency: libossp-uuid.so.15 is needed by package
postgresql-contrib

I can find references to this file in an rpm for fc7
(uuid-1.5.1-3.fc7.i386) but nothing else.  Is there a place that I can
obtain a CentOS version of this package?  Failing that, is installing
uuid-1.5.1-3.fc7.i386 on CentOS-5.2 an option?

JohnStanley Writes:

Where "protect = 0" in the above needs to be protect = 1 for all centos
repos so then yum want pull in Updates from other repos that will break your
install ans the centos repos need the highest priority. You may have to
experiment with both installed, also however they may be conflicting against
each other also. Therefor you may have to remove one. I know yum prioritys
set to 1 in CentOSBase.repo will exclude any other repo when running yum
update

[CentOS] kernel and memory question

[Mag Gam]

Currently at my university we are running many servers with Centos 4.6
and everything is okay, but when a user does a large operation such as
'cp' or 'tar' or 'rsync' all of the physical memory gets exhausted.
Our lab servers have 32GB physical to 64GB of physical memory and when
a user does a large copy which involves very small but over 10k files
eventually we see a kswap process. I would like to control swapping so
these files don't go into memory instead they get flushed out. These
computers are used for fluid dynamics calculations and I would just
like to have the memory do a FIFO and use the least swap as possible.
I tried setting the swapiness to '10' or '0' but that really does not
help. Also, has there been a major memory management advancement from
4.6 to 5.2? If so, where can I read about the changes?

TIA

yum priority is for giving priority to one repo over another...
Totally irrelevant here, the the issues are rpmforge-only: the rf 
audacity needs GTK 2.6 while new builds of VLC and others (still rf) now 
need GTK 2.8.

Both GTK 2.6 and GTK 2.8 are available in rpmforge.
So, you have to choose your own priorities, no software can make the 
choice for you:
- either you upgrade GTK to 2.8, which requires uninstalling audacity 
(until some time in the probably not so distant future where Dag 
resolves the issues and manages to build audacity with GTK 2.8);
- or you stick to GTK 2.6, which means you have to keep your older 
versions of VLC and any other package whose newer versions were rebuilt 
with GTK 2.8.


Why is this such a big deal??

If it's really that critical to you, I'm sure Dag could use your help 
getting that audacity thing to build with GTK 2.8.

[CentOS] Shell script to list group members

I have several shell scripts to manage user accounts on a server.  I've 
been using a file with the usernames of peoples accounts that any script 
needs to process.  I had a thought that I can and should be setting up 
groups and adding user accounts to those groups so I don't have to 
maintain a set of files with the user accounts.


So essentially, I am looking for a (simple) shell command to run from a 
bash script that will allow me to list user accounts that belong to a 
particular group.  Any help is appreciated.

You should probably report this to yum.pgsqlrpms.org.

Installing the binary fc7 RPM is probably not a good idea, but you might be
able to rebuild it on CentOS 5 and use it.

Re: [CentOS] Update troubles for wxGTK apps

[Niki Kovacs]

John a écrit :


I've had that set up ever since I first added any repositories.
I've got it set to a priority of 10, is there a better value to use?



1 = highest priority <==> packages never get squashed

99 = lowest priority

So basically you're free to choose any value between 1 and 99. The lower 
the number, the higher the priority. If [base], [updates] and [extras] 
have a priority of 1 and you only have [rpmforge] as third-party 
archive, then you're free to choose any value between 2 and 99 to keep 
your CentOS packages from being replaced.

[CentOS] ASUS P5GC-MX/1333+ WD SATA

[Eduardo Grosclaude]

Hi, I'm puzzled by an ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 with a WD320AAJS disk. My 5.2
DVD refused to see the hard disk. As the CD happened to have a bad MD5
sum, I assumed this was due to a bad burnt image.

Backed off to 5.1. Installation of 5.1 to /dev/sda went OK, then I
upgraded by yum to 5.2. But, at the next boot, the new kernel can't
see the disk. Only when BIOS IDE Setup is "compatible" I can boot the
new kernel. However, the disk shows up as /dev/hdc and performance is
noticeably slow. If I choose any other mode, nash complains that any
LVM groups can't be found and panics away.

I/O in general is terrible. Copying a CDROM to a file with dd renders
the machine nearly unusable.

The kernel provided in 5.1 can work in the BIOS IDE Setup
"enhanced/SATA" and performance is really good.  Hdparm when under the
current kernel says 3.51 MB/s buffered speed, whereas for the older
kernel it claims some 111+ MB/s.

I have updated the BIOS ROM to no avail. What am I missing? Is there
anything I can do except keep trying kernel updates?

TIA

Thanks John for the info.

As far as I know I'm NOT using the protect feature/plugin. I purposely set
up priorities back when I first installed Centos5 and purposely did NOT set
up the protect stuff. I read the documentation on the wiki about it and
decided that priorities made a lot more sense.

here's the first part of yum output, wherein it says nothing about
any protections other than via priority:

Loading "priorities" plugin
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * pidgin: rpm.pidgin.im
 * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de
 * base: updates.interworx.info
 * updates: mirror.trouble-free.net
 * addons: mirrors.unbornmedia.com
 * extras: mirror.trouble-free.net
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished
412 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Update Process
Resolving Dependencies

I've got priorities in CentOS-Base.repo set to 1 except for centosplus
and contrib which are 2. pidgin.repo has all three items set to priority
of 40, and rpmforge.repo is set to 10.

Anybody see anything wrong with that?

It's a big deal only in the sense that with a properly configured
yum system I cannot update my system without disabling a repository
that wants to give me incompatible updates, incompatible with itself.

I can certainly disable rpmforge, and as far as I can see that's my
only option here unless I want to mess around with audacity.
Somehow I was operating under the (apparent) delusion that the repo
maintainers would ensure they didn't create situations like this, so
that users wouldn't end up unable to update.

I have to believe that you have heard of Wikipedia:

I just did not know what to use for my googling to get to this. Thanks.

This wiki page even lists the OQOs as examples of crusoe processors.

Now in terms of actually running Centos on this device, how do I enable 
crusoe processing? Given that there is suppose to be an abstraction 
layer here, is it in the OS thus it must be enabled (if so how will the 
CD install even work?) or it is in the OQO's BIOS thus this is an 
optimization?

At the bottom of that page you were directed to is a link,
Linux on laptops and notebooks with Transmeta CPUs:
http://tuxmobil.org/cpu_transmeta.html

Which leads to a page which shows you in detail how to do it with SUSE.

Maybe that might get you going?

ok, Barry wins. :)

But, I don't think you need the egrep ...

getent group groupname | ...

works ok for me.


The egrep is using a leading anchor (^) to make sure the grep matches the 
beginning of the line.  If not, and the group pattern matched as one of 
the users it would print those lines too .. which is probably undesirable.

Grep understands the '^', so egrep is not needed.  Typically, you only
need egrep for patterns that involve alternative re's, like looking
for one of "abc|def|ghi" which grep does not recognize.

Also, it might be helpful to trim your replies so we don't need to
wade through the whole thread to see your reply.

It's a big deal only in the sense that with a properly configured yum system
I cannot update my system without disabling a repository that wants to give
me incompatible updates, incompatible with itself.

I can certainly disable rpmforge, and as far as I can see that's my only
option here unless I want to mess around with audacity.
Somehow I was operating under the (apparent) delusion that the repo
maintainers would ensure they didn't create situations like this, so that
users wouldn't end up unable to update.

but if I don't want to do the devel work and especially if I was a user who
didn't know how to disable a repo, I'd be stuck here. So I asked if there
was any choice other than doing that. I've not heard that other people find
it to be an issue, so maybe I'm just overly sensitive, but it seems like a
breakage to me. What do I know.

I do not and did not mean to be offensive to Dag, and I apologize if I
was--it just seemed like an issue that would be affecting a lot more people
than just me and I wanted to see what others were doing about it.
So far I've not heard what that is.

JohnStanley Writes:

Now since you explain it in more detail. You have the option to compile from
source and build against gtk-2.8. Or B, yum update gtk then make a rpm -i
gtk /opt/ Install and link audacity against the Install in the /opt
Directory. Well, that basically sums up your options you have. I'm sure
there's other hacks to do this a better way.

Yea I can see a new user and this happening to them so I can see where your
coming from. I maybe wrong but you may want to check the man yum for setting
what package version to install for an rpm like foo_package1.0 and
foo_package.1.1. Could be wrong but maybe someone else can comment on that.
Don't think that is what you need either??

I second that. Dag is doing great work, and for desktop users, CentOS 
wouldn't be the same without RPMForge. However, this update has been 
botched up. Existing systems can be left in the present state by putting 
an 'exclude=wxGTK amule vlc audacity' line in /etc/yum.conf. But when 
installing a new system, 'yum install vlc audacity' does not work. This 
is a worry for me, as I install desktop systems professionally, and I 
use both programs on client's desktops (yes, amule too, when the client 
wants it... :o)). As far as I'm concerned, I worked around it by simply 
rebuilding wxGTK (2.6), amule, vlc and audacity from SRPM and putting 
them in my own repo with a higher priority. This took the best part of 
an afternoon.


My suggestion to Dag (with all respect taken): why not create a 
[rf-testing] repo for the critical stuff, a bit like [kbsingh]?


I repeat, since this is important: please do not take offense. Shit 
happens, I know.

[CentOS] auto create user home by vsftpd

[Leutz, Alexander]

Hi everybody,

 

we using our centos server with vsftpd and windbind.

 

our users can log on via ftp on the centos server by using their
windows-ad-domain-accounts.

 

That's working fine.

 

But vsftpd doesn't auto create user home dirs, if the user connects the
first time to the system.

 

Anybody some suggestions why?

 

Our configuration in the /etc/pam.d/vsftp:

 

sessionrequired pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0022

 

 

 

Greats & Thanks

Alexander
