Hi,

This is not critical error, it simply means that database of clamav that 
contains definition information has corrupted. there are more than one 
way to fix it.
1.) yum remove clam clamav-db* followed by yum install clamav-db
2.) find & move the following files to temp location run freshclam.
daily.cvd main.cld, mirrors.dat

Ok I booted back up this morning with rdshell.
Was looking around and could really tell much.
What exactly am I looking for?
/dev/disk does not exist
I did not see anything disk related in /dev.
I tried to mount /dev/hda1 and /dev/sda1 and got errors on both.

dmesg gave be output but could not pipe through grep, I could redirect
to file but then did not know how to view the file by page in rdshell.

Thanks,

Jerry

You need to read the help while in rdshell. For some obscure reason, there
doesn't seem to be a man page, at least on the first page of googling, and
that after trying a man on it. Try looking at

Yes, I know he's ubuntu, but down here, there's not much difference. The
tab is *very* useful, since it will try autocomplete.

Hope this helps some.

Ok - so I am looking at the GRUB stuff, I boot up, hit c for command
type ls and I get "unrecognized command". Not off to a good start...

Hit TAB and sure enough ls is not listed there. Perhaps that is part of 
grub2?

Anyway still looking...

Found something better - it's RH/fedora, so this may work better.



Go down about a third of the page.

One command to try is root

Mark,

I entered the grub shell and ran the above. All looked good.

My issue is after that, grub is booting and all that, kernel starts up, 
starts printing a bunch of stuff.
just at some point it says NO root filesystem found.

Re: [CentOS] Digi Acceleport Xem

[Sidney Abrahams]

Hi Warren,

Thanks much it now loads correctly. But I still have two new problems which you 
may be able to help me with.

1. The OS is not recognizing the floppy drive which is an IDE one. If I put in 
an USB one it functions properly.

2. Then before I could work on that the system crashed showing only the Centos 
logo and a small circular image which normally rotates. I want to use grub to 
see what caused the crash? How can I do that?

Regards,

Sidney

I ran into this sort of issue due to the video cable.  If you're running with a 
KVM, you may want to check both the KVM to monitor cable and the video card to 
KVM cable.  Also try it straight to the monitor.  All video cables are not 
equal.

In the case that I ran into, the cable that came with the monitor worked well; 
a third party cable (new, not used, and not a 'cheap' cable) did not work at 
all for EDID information (that is, the resolution would not auto-set, and I 
couldn't get widescreen resolutions because of it).  The monitor was quite 
similar to your ViewSonic, and the video was almost the same exact card.  Once 
I went to the monitor's cable, everything worked perfectly.  Note that this 
particular cable was the 15 pin analog VGA cable, not a DVI cable.  

I'm not sure if it was the nVidia card being finicky, or if it was the monitor; 
it takes both to successfully grab the EDID info for auto-resolution.

And that, to me, tells me that the kernel line in your grub.conf is wrong.
Specifically, I'd guess there's a problem with the parameters
root= If you're using label, and I apologize if you know this,
it must read root=LABEL= I don't really know if the word label
must be capitalized, btw. For non-labelled, non-UUID,
root=/dev/, and the root line, as opposed to the root parm on
the kernel line, is the odd (hdx,y), and y is /dev/devy - 1, partition 1
is 0.

Good reference:

Very interesting. I'm not sure I've ever heard of Twin Peaks, and Groklaw
notes they have almost no installed base, if I understood that correctly.

Gluster, on the other hand, has been around for years, and has a
fair-sized installed base, and is moderately well-known. One thing RH
seems to have in reserve is that the patent has not been enforced, and so
they've lost that right.

Oh, right, I'd missed suggesting that. Possibly a good catch, Yves. *Does*
the fstab have the correct label in it for /?

If you want to save your current tabs use kill to kill off your Firefox 
process.  Next time you start Firefox all your tabs will miraculously 
reappear.  I found this out when I had to kill a Firefox session that 
locked up.

Not necessary. If you just log out, when it comes back up when you log in,
it should be the same. This is dependent upon your window manager, please
note, but I run kde, and it does this every day

I think you would need 3rd party software to put the mail store in a
mysql or postgresql database.  Is there some reason you want to do
that instead of using the standard dovecot or cyrus packages that
store messages in the filesystem?   Cyrus scales well and doesn't
require email uses to be system users.

yes on the kernel command line I have:

Because of the information in a previous message, I think you have a
separate partition for /boot. Is that the case and, if so, did you
consider section 5.1 of the Grub Installation information?

(For what it's worth, I don't recommend having a separate partition
for /boot.)

Also, vmlinuz-2.6.32.59 doesn't look right; I think it should be
vmlinuz-2.6.32.59.el6 or so.

I guess I should ask you to post /boot/grub/grub.conf and /etc/fstab,
and the outpout of "df" and "ls -l /boot".

No I have one partition in this case.
/dev/sda1 is everything
/dev/sda2 is swap

I cannot do "df" as currently there is no command as the file system is 
not mounted.

I have built 2.6.32.59 as I needed to run the kernel without PAE.
I extracted the kernel on a KVM image, I did
cp /boot/config-2.6.32-279.el6.i686 .config
make oldconfig
make menuconfig
went to HIGH MEMORY Support and changed to 4GB.
did the make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install, make install
That's where I get the 2.6.32.59...

When booting the KVM image with the kernel I built it works fine.
I can even make the CF card look like a USB drive and boot it and it 
works fine.
Its just when I go native CF in the device it says no root file system.

I have centos 5.X CF cards working just fine on my end target, I'm just 
trying to get 6.X to run.

I'm sure its something small I am missing. I just havent found it.

Thanks,

jerry

Hmmm... you built it. I missed that. Here's a thought: when you built it,
was it *running* on the cf card? If not, consider booting linux rescue,
chroot to the mounted filesystem, and rebuild initrfs, to make sure that
the driver for the cf card is in the init.

I dont have the external DVD with me at the moment.
Is there a way on the kVM image to say "include these modules"
with the "make install" command

Perhaps an /etc/sysconfig/[some file here] that says include these modules
in hte ram disk?

I think that might be it as the old 5.X has scsi modules loaded and the
KVM 6.X image does not have that

Thanks,

Can you please trim your replies?

freshclam supports the use of a proxy.  See freshclam.conf for more
information.

It's not entirely clear what you're asking.
The default that will occur if you just hit Enter is No, indicated by the 
upper-case letter in the brackets.

If you don't import the key you will either need to use the --nogpgcheck 
parameter whenever you install an rpm from adobe, else disable the gpg check in 
the yum.conf file.

I doubt that anyone here is going to counsel you to disable the gpg check.
If you don't want to automatically trust every package signed with that key, 
then don't install it and use the --nogpgcheck parameter each time you want to 
install an adobe package; if you don't mind trusting packages signed with that 
key, then import it.

The funny part is at scale, all the reasons he has against mail in a db
are the exclusive list of why I think its a good idea, not to mention it _is_
being done reliable for long enough to prove so.

I'd say ymmv, but I think I'd have to say _all_ our mileage varies from his:)

hey I found and used the mkinitrd and just went ahead and told it what 
to use like --preload=scsi_mod --preload=sd_mod
and I now I get it to boot.

Fantastic!

Excellent. Yeah, that last email of yours was the clue, that it wasn't
seeing the card at all... and that would only happen if there was no
driver there.

When we upgrade systems using rsync, which I've done a lot of, our wiki
notes that if it's not the same hardware, boot to rescue, so the correct
drivers are loaded, the chroot, and the rebuild.

Good luck.

[CentOS] Odd issue with XFS quotas reporting 8192.0EB in use

[James A. Peltier]

Hi All,

I have this very odd issue where after a migration we have some users who have 
quotas showing 8192.0EB in use, when in reality on disk there is only a couple 
hundred megabytes.

The host in question is a:

* CentOS 6.3 host with mostly latest patches (except latest glibc patches)
* running in SELinux Enforcing mode (Permissive doesn't seem to help)
* all file systems are on Logical Volumes
* all XFS file systems are mounted defaults,uquota,grpquota
* have the following XFS packages installed
- xfsprogs-3.1.1-7.el6.x86_64
- xfsdump-3.0.4-2.el6.x86_64

It's really odd because I can see no rhyme nor reason for these users to have 
this 8192.0EB allocation.  It's also odd that is 8192 in the first place.  Any 
ideas from anyone on how I might go about troubleshooting this?  In some cases 
creating a 1 byte file owned by the user after the quota has been set worked.  
For some it was 10M, for others 100M file was needed.  I'm at a total loss here 
and it's our primary file server so rebooting it would be a huge pain.

If you haven't looked at drbl, it is mostly a collection of scripts
that set up the native tools in an assortment of ways.  It can boot
into one of the clonezilla-live isos as an alternative to the stock
(server native) mode or into the installer images for several
distributions.  I don't think the scripts accommodate generic live-cd
images, but it might not be too hard to add support.   I've always
thought it would be nice to PXE-boot straight into an NX client
without needing NFS mounts, but haven't needed it badly enough to set
something up.

[CentOS] need help with 6.3 install, kernel panic when os boots up

[Lewis]

Hi,

I am new to the community and look for some help for installing CentOS on
my Dell poweredge t420 server.

I am installing the CentOS on dual boot; already have the windows server
2008 installed via UEFI.
I installed the CentOS 6.3 via UEFI DVD boot too, and because my server
have the hardware RAID, so instead of the LVM, I use standard partition for
all my partitions.
The installation completed successfully and I let the installer write the
boot info into the EFI boot partition.
Reboot the machine after installation complete, but got kernel panic issue
when loading the OS.

I saw some message like this:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Pid: 1, comm: init Not tainted blablba version

BTW, don't want to make thing complicated, but curious if the partition
might be a issue here(whether type, or the order of the partition)
The weird thing is before I installed the centOS using standard partition,
I by chance, chose "use free space" for create the partition to install the
OS once, and the system automatically help me create the LVM and OS was
working fine.
After that I format the harddisk and want to install it again using
standard partition, and it failed.

Thanks for any help. I could provide more debug info, just let me know how.

   Backing up maildirs doesn't require any downtime because a maildir is
   atomic in every way that matters.  It uses filename and location to
   indicate message status.  If you want to back up *live* Maildir folders,
   either one of these will do:
   
 http://code.google.com/p/maildirsync/
 http://syncmaildir.sourceforge.net/

   Unless your users are in the habit of editing messages, Maildir files
   don't get modified; they're created, renamed and deleted.  When users do
   edit messages, the mail client normally creates a new one and deletes
   the old one.  As a result, rsync isn't the most efficient way to sync
   maildirs -- when status changes occur, rsync sees that a new file exists
   and an old one is gone.  It doesn't know that the file was renamed.
   
   The only real issue when backing up a Maildir using tar/rsync is speed.
   Neither method is great when backing up a large number of small files, as
   many people have observed in the past.  Common workarounds:
   
   * using dump/restore (requires a quiescent filesystem), or
   * using tar/scp for the first Maildir backup and using rsync afterwards.
   
   All you need for this case is an SMTP server that understands Maildirs.
   Contrast this with an RDB, where you absolutely need consistent and quiet
   files to do a successful backup.  If you want DB replication, then you need:
   
   * an SMTP server, plus
   * an RDB on the mailserver, plus
   * a replica of the DB on another server.
   
   Which setup is easier to create and maintain?

Re: [CentOS] placing x11 libraries in an alternate location

I've done this before on Solaris and regretted it.  Worked well to start 
with, but turned into a World Of Pain.

It might be technically possible, if the RPMs  are relocatable, or you 
did something cute with soft-links, but it will take a fair bit of 
mucking around, and will probably cause you bigger and harder to solve 
problems later on. Think about upgrading :-(

Might I suggest and alternative question: "How do I easily install and 
maintain X11 libraries on 50+ servers?".

Puppet, Chef, or Bcfg2 could do it but it will probably take you a long 
time to get your head around those beasts, let alone setting up the 
infrastructure.

A much simpler solution is ansible: http://ansible.github.com/.

Very easy to learn. Very easy to use. You can read _all_ the docs in 
under an hour. You should be able to set it up in a few minutes.

The following will ensure the latest version of xorg (and any 
dependencies) is installed on all my servers (updating/installing 10 at 
a time).

#>  ansible all -m yum name=xorg state=latest -f 10

It can do a lot more, but that should solve your immediate problem.

Hope this helps,

Kal
