By default, the rpm installation creates an Apache Alias /phpmyadmin
(take a look at the httpd.conf file).

You can access it with http://ip_number/phpmyadmin  ip_number can
be localhost, DNS name, or ip number.

Follow the common password policy ( 8 chars alpha numeric upper/lower case).

In case this system is on an Internet facing network, I would suggest
you put some kind of access control on the directory e.g. .htaccess
Basic Auth.

[CentOS] upload a file to new github repository

2013-04-15 Thread ken

Though I've used version control systems before and even set up a couple 
over the years, and though it was simple to setup a github repository 
(which I did just a couple minutes ago), I can't figure out how to 
upload the first file to it.  I'm logged in, on the repository's home

set up on the web and the git manpage, but no help there.  Anybody here 
know to put a code file into the repository?

Re: [CentOS] upload a file to new github repository

2013-04-15 Thread Adam Wead

Sounds like you're trying to add the file from the web interface.  Usually
you add the files via the filesystem you've cloned the repo to. Ex:

git clone https://git.com/username/my-repo
cd my-repo
[edit/add files]
git status # to preview your chnages
git commit -mAdding new and changed files to my repo
git push

Then go to https://git.com/username/my-repo

and you should see the changes.  I'm assuming you're putting all your
changes in your master branch.

I guess you can files via the web interface, but I've never done that.

[CentOS] Asterisk, IAXModem and Hylafax

2013-04-15 Thread James B. Byrne


Arch = x86_64
OS = CentOS-6.3 (FreePBX)
Asterisk = 11.3.0 (FreePBX)
Hylafax+ = 5.5.3  (epel)

I am installing an Asterisk server with the intent of having it act as
our fax server.  The Asterisk system was installed using the current
FreePBX distro which is reputedly based on CentOS-6.3. I have
installed Hylafax+ from epel and I have built and packaged
IAXModem-1.2.0 for CentOS-6 using mock and installed that on the
Asterisk host.

I am past the point of setting up Asterisk and configuring extensions
and users.  I am able to place and receive internal calls to and from
SIP devices and place and receive external calls over a PSTN analogue
trunk.  The echo generated by the SIP clients is terrible but that
problem can wait until I get to dealing with voice service
implementation.

At the moment I am trying to get Hylafax configured.  I have done this
in the past albeit for systems using external serial modems.  I am at
the point of running the faxstup utility which builds the necessary
hylafax configuration files.  I am getting these errors from the
utility:


Setting Ghostscript font path in /etc/hylafax/hyla.conf.


Warning: /usr/local/lib/ghostscript/fonts does not exist or is not a

The directory /usr/local/lib/ghostscript/fonts does not exist or this

illegible facsimile from ASCII text.

Can anyone tell me what package I am missing or what else might be
causing the problem?  I realize that this is only tangentially a

Hey, fellow Cleveland dude!

Thanks much.  That worked fine, though I did have to do a git add 
after adding file(s) in.  It got the files where they needed to go.

You might have noticed another post here from me about it, but what I 
put out there was a gnumeric workbook I've been using for a long time to 
do my taxes-- Federal, state of Ohio, and local (which you as a

[CentOS] ATI video driver problems

User got upgraded to 6.4. Graphical mode video fails.

It's an AMD (nee ATI) RV620 (FirePro 2260).

So I finished upgrading everything, including kmod-fglrx. Based on the
xorg.conf's on there, it's been using the fglrx. Now, in Xorg.0.log, it
tells me no supported AMD display adapters were found. I've been
on-and-off googling for hours, and can't figure out if the legacy
kmod-nvidia from elrepo will work: their info *ONLY* lists Radeon cards,
and I can't figure out what this damn thing is. Oh, lspci -v tells me it's
ATI device 2343.

Anyone know what this card is like (AMD shows three different models of
the same name, and I have no idea which it is, and none uses a Radeon
name), and what driver I might use, or do I have to downgrade X

It is no longer supported.

The current AMD driver [v13.1] ONLY supports Radeon HD 5000 series and 
above, with the legacy driver [v13.1 legacy] supporting older Radeon HD 
2000, HD 3000 or HD 4000 series cards (I assume yours is a 2000 series 
card) *BUT* the legacy driver does NOT support X server ABI 13 in the 
version of Xorg shipped with RHEL 6.4. So your card is not supported by 
AMD as the version of Xorg server in RHEL 6.4 is too new.

You need to include whatever drivers loaded in rescue mode in the new
initrd, but I've forgotten the exact details.  In Centos5 you would
add alias entries to /etc/modprobe.conf but it might have been named
something else in C4.   Maybe you can see what is there before you
chroot to the installed instance and change the file there to match,
then make the new initrd.   Once in a similar circumstance I just
copied the whole contents of ./boot from a different machine with
identical hardware so I didn't have to know as much as anaconda about
matching hardware and drivers.

[CentOS] idea: hybrid iso images?

2013-04-15 Thread Joseph Spenner

In order to create a bootable CentOS installation USB thumb drive, there are 
several steps one must follow.  The process often involves using a Windows box, 
which can be kinda annoying.

The Linux Mint distro has what they call a Hybrid iso image.
 (see:   http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/744 )

This image can be written to a thumb drive and used for installation simply by 
performing:

# dd /path/to/image.iso of=/dev/sdb
  (where /dev/sdb is the thumb drive device).

This thumb drive can now be booted and used for installation.
The same image.iso file can be written to CD/DVD to create the installation 
media as well.


Is this a complicated ISO build process?  I'm frequently installing to systems 
without CD/DVD drives, so this would come in handy.

Thanks!

Regards,
Joseph Spenner

Centos ISOs have been hybrid for a while now AFAIK. Have you tried

 User got upgraded to 6.4. Graphical mode video fails.

 It's an AMD (nee ATI) RV620 (FirePro 2260).

 So I finished upgrading everything, including kmod-fglrx. Based on the
 xorg.conf's on there, it's been using the fglrx. Now, in Xorg.0.log, it
 tells me no supported AMD display adapters were found. I've been
 on-and-off googling for hours, and can't figure out if the legacy
 kmod-nvidia from elrepo will work: their info *ONLY* lists Radeon cards,
 and I can't figure out what this damn thing is. Oh, lspci -v tells me
 it's ATI device 2343.

 Anyone know what this card is like (AMD shows three different models of
 the same name, and I have no idea which it is, and none uses a Radeon
 name), and what driver I might use, or do I have to downgrade X

 It is no longer supported.

 The current AMD driver [v13.1] ONLY supports Radeon HD 5000 series and
 above, with the legacy driver [v13.1 legacy] supporting older Radeon HD
 2000, HD 3000 or HD 4000 series cards (I assume yours is a 2000 series
 card) *BUT* the legacy driver does NOT support X server ABI 13 in the
 version of Xorg shipped with RHEL 6.4. So your card is not supported by
 AMD as the version of Xorg server in RHEL 6.4 is too new.

 That's what I was coming to think - the one thing that had me stopped was
 what it *was*. Do I understand you to be saying that this is a Radeon HD
 2xxx (and why *three* names, two from ATI?)?


FirePro 2260 leads me to believe it's a 2000 series card. Having the 
Vendor:Device ID pairing would help clarify, but looking at the pci id's 
database I'm guessing it's either 1002:95ce or 1002:95cf.

 Also, it appears that you're saying I need to downgrade his X (all of
 it?), and remove the kmod-fglrx, and install the legacy (is that the
 kmod-fglrx93?


You have a number of choices:

1. Use the v13.1 legacy driver from AMD and downgrade xorg\* to the last 
release that came with RHEL 6.3 and exclude future updates. If you wish 
to use the elrepo package it's called kmod-fglrx-legacy / 
fglrx-legacy-x11-drv (currently version 13.1-2) and is currently in the 
testing repo. Obviously downgrading xorg packages has potential security 
implications.

2. Uninstall the AMD proprietary drivers and use the distro kernel driver.

3. Ask AMD when they will update the legacy driver to support Xorg ABI 13.

4. Buy a new (supported) card.

A fifth option is to use el5 which uses an older supported version of 
Xorg (I do find it kind of ironic that RHEL6 ships with such a new 
version of Xorg that some proprietary drivers don't support it - more 
the kind of thing you expect to run into on Ubuntu or Fedora than 
Enterprise Linux).

Thank you.  After I wrote I checked in /etc/hylafax/hyla.conf and that
listed some of the directories where fonts are found in CentOS-6.3 and
many places where they are not. So I treated the error message from
faxsetup as spurious and proceeded on that basis.  I had already
encountered the difficulty with tokens and had set that to 'no' in the
fax device profiles.  (We are using the users and devices mode of
Asterisk rather than extensions.)

I can now register each of the two fax lines I have configured. Albeit
one at a time because I have only one spare POTS line to play with.
However, whenever I call in I only get the ss-noservice.ulaw

will take to the Asterisk users list.

Thank you again for your help.

 You need to include whatever drivers loaded in rescue mode in the new
 initrd, but I've forgotten the exact details.  In Centos5 you would
 add alias entries to /etc/modprobe.conf but it might have been named
 something else in C4.   Maybe you can see what is there before you
 chroot to the installed instance and change the file there to match,
 then make the new initrd.   Once in a similar circumstance I just
 copied the whole contents of ./boot from a different machine with
 identical hardware so I didn't have to know as much as anaconda about
 matching hardware and drivers.

There is a /etc/modprobe.conf file on the original system.  Among other 
things, it says:

alias scsi_hostadapter sata_nv

I assume that refers to the driver for the nvidia chipset.

I found a modprobe.conf file in the rescue environment living in 
/tmp/modprobe.conf.  This one says:

alias scsi_hostadapter ahci

I guess that's a driver that works with the new hardware?  I do not have 
the ports in ahci mode in the bios.

What do I need to do to make sure the driver gets into initrd?  Or do I 
just need to make the change to /etc/modprobe.conf on the hard drive?

If you have somewhere to copy the data,  the best approach would be to

Your initrd has to include anything needed to access the hard drive
and filesystem before you can find the others.

This system is running BackupPC.  The number of hardlinks in the data

 I think you would change the /etc/modprobe.conf on the hard drive and
 chroot there (/mnt/sysimage) before running mkinitrd.

I figured that one out just before I received your response.  That fixed 
the bootup problem.  The changes to modprobe.conf were what was missing 
from the instructions I found online on Friday.

For future reference, this is what I did:

1) Boot into rescue mode.
2) Look at /tmp/modprobe.conf in the rescue environment to see what 
driver was in use.
3) Edit /mnt/sysimage/etc/modprobe.conf and add the driver there
4) chroot /mnt/sysimage
5) cd /boot
6) mv initrd-(kernel version).img initrd-(kernel version).img.bkup
7) mkinitrd initrd-(kernel version).img (kernel version)
8) reboot

Now I've just got to work on getting the network card going, but that (I 
hope!) should be much easier now that the system is booting.

[CentOS] My linux keeps logging me off when I run Firefox (how to debug)?

This is a strange one to me.

Just recently, my Centos 6 has been gentle crashing where it doesn't crash, 
per se, but the screen goes black, and the login prompt pops up. 

It only happens when I run Firefox and it only started happening this morning.
However, it has happened a dozen times, and always when Firefox is running.

It does NOT happen when Firefox is not running. 
I haven't tested with Chrome yet; so that's my next test - but - the 
question I have is:

How do I log the events that are causing Centos to log me out of 
user1 and to present the login screen?

Your desktop is crashing, not the entire machine.

Try renaming ~/.mozilla to something else, then run firefox and see if it still

That's become a no-starter: I tried to downgrade, and yum tells me there
*is* no downgrade. If I understand correctly... I'd have to downgrade him
to 6.3.

 2. Uninstall the AMD proprietary drivers and use the distro kernel driver.

 3. Ask AMD when they will update the legacy driver to support Xorg ABI 13.

See the last sentence in my answer to 4.

 4. Buy a new (supported) card.

That's try and get it through purchasing, or maybe I can try the unlikely
idea, since it's still under warranty (we just bought it in Nov!), to see
if Dell will replace the card.  I have a call into them, and am waiting
for the RH group there to get back to me, to see if they have a driver
(and maybe lean on them to lean on AMD - Dell leans a *lot* harder than I
do).

 A fifth option is to use el5 which uses an older supported version of

 Also, it appears that you're saying I need to downgrade his X (all of
 it?), and remove the kmod-fglrx, and install the legacy (is that the
 kmod-fglrx93?

 You have a number of choices:

 1. Use the v13.1 legacy driver from AMD and downgrade xorg\* to the last
 release that came with RHEL 6.3 and exclude future updates. If you wish
 to use the elrepo package it's called kmod-fglrx-legacy /
 fglrx-legacy-x11-drv (currently version 13.1-2) and is currently in the
 testing repo. Obviously downgrading xorg packages has potential security
 implications.

 That's become a no-starter: I tried to downgrade, and yum tells me there
 *is* no downgrade. If I understand correctly... I'd have to downgrade him
 to 6.3.

no.
only xorg and friends as Ned told you... you *will* have to do some repo 
configuring to do that, though. I'm sure google can help you there too.

that part of your email is probably irrelevant if you got it working 
with the radeon driver, but for the record...

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 6.3 gpgv: Libgcrypt warning: missing initialization - please fix the application

2013-04-15 Thread P J

If it helps, I figured out the application causing the error message.
It's Ksplice's uptrace-upgrade which runs via cron...

Still not sure what the solution is, or if this error is benign.

Re: [CentOS] No more support for chrome/chromium on rhel6

Is there any chance CentOS might add Chromium to extras repo? See below.

Post from Hirakendu:
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/chromium-discuss/I_ZFDJqdiyA

I have put up some scripts for building current Chromium versions (26
and 27) on EL 6 at

https://github.com/hirakendu/chromium_el_builder

. See the readme for details. Due to the large file size, the current
RPM chromium-26.0.1410.63-192696.x86_64.rpm, built on CentOS 6.4, can
be obtained by downloading the project archive.Please note that this
is only for the time being and I do not intend to actively maintain
it, but I hope it may help others. A couple of patches may be merged
as well.

Aside, thanks to Paweł for maintaining the excellent chromium ebuilds
for Gentoo Linux (which I have been happily using for several years)
that helped clarify some of the build steps, in addition to the
official build instructions at chromium.org.

I will be glad to build it, *IF* I can reproduce what the script does
inside an SRPM (looks like I should be able to). One of our rules is an
SRPM for everything we release.

The problem is, if he is not going to support it later, his gcc patches
may not keep working on newer code and we only gain a couple of builds
and run out of support.

Since I personally use chrome as my browser (and obviously CentOS-6.4 as
my OS :D) ... and want to continue to do so ... I will look at this soon.

Thanks,

Do you have an NVIDIA graphics card?

if yes, are you using the driver package directly from NVIDIA (as

I've had what you describe happen to me under those circumstances.
The nvidia drivers replace some system library, and now and then
(not too often, in my experience, in fact pretty rarely) that system
lib gets updated, threby trashing the Nvidia replacement.

When that happens, firing up firefox will kill X, dropping you back
to the login.

if that sounds like what you see, just go rerun the nvidia installer,
then you should be working again.

[CentOS] Regarding : ATI video driver problems

2013-04-15 Thread Mark LaPierre

I gather from the discussion on the reference thread that I'll be having 
quite a time with a MB having an Integrated ATI Radeon HD 3000 graphics 
chip set and a video card using a Radeon HD 6570 chip set when I try to 
run CentOS 6.4 on it.

I was going to ask if CrossFire works with CentOS, but it appears that 
the integrated chip set isn't going to work at all.

Well, ignoring all that, is CrossFire supported by any of the drivers 
available for CentOS 6.4?  If no then what about SLI support?  I don't 
want to paint myself into a corner by building a computer that I'll 
never get working to full potential.

Anyway, here's my wish list as it stands at the moment.

Brand   Model_Num
Mother BoardGIGABYTEGA-78LMT-USB3
Processor   AMD FX-8150
CPU Cooler  
CaseCooler Master   HAF 912 RC-912-KKN1
Power SupplyCooler Master   RS650-ACAAE3-US
Memory  CORSAIR CMX32GX3M4A1333C9
DVD Burner  Lite-On IHAS324-98
Hard Drive  Seagate ST1000DM003
Video Card  GIGABYTEGV-R657OC-1GI

Feel free to suggest changes that might make compatibility less of an 
issue.  I chose the MB because it supports 32G of RAM and also has a 
parallel port that I need to support my laser printer.  I suppose I 
could use a parallel port interface card with another MB instead.

 Try renaming ~/.mozilla to something else, then run firefox and see if it

Ah, that makes sense that the os isn't crashing, 
but that the Desktop is.

I tried with Chrome, and, guess what? No crash.

Then I uninstalled Firefox  the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB), 
both of which use Firefox, and I removed the ~/.mozilla directory.
$ sudo yum remove firefox

I re-installed Firefox, and it crashed the desktop again:
$ sudo yum install firefox

So, now I'm using Chrome (but I prefer Firefox). 
I must admit I had Firefox honed for protection, with noscript, 
ghostery, user-agent switcher, dns-flusher, etc.

So, maybe those addons were causing the problem (but I did not
 add anything recently). 

QUESTION:
 Is there a Desktop crash log somewhere?

Yes, I do. 
And, come to think of it, I did recently run a yum update.

Maybe the El Repo Nvidia driver has a problem with Firefox?

I remember it was miserable installing the Nvidia driver a
while ago...

Looking at my log file, here's how I had installed the Nvidia
driver from the El Repo repository:

1. I identified my kernel version:
   $ uname -r
   == 2.6.32-279.5.1.el6.x86_64

2. I identified my graphics card
   $ /sbin/lspci -nn | grep VGA
   ==01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GT216 
[Quadro FX 880M] [10de:0a3c] (rev a2)

3. I identified the latest version of the graphics driver available:
   http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-304.37-driver.html
   Note: I compared this latest version  support information with the 
 latest available at El Repo in the next step.

4. I compared the Nvidia version with the latest available El Repo version:
   http://elrepo.org/tiki/Driver+Versions
   Note: I searched for nvidia to find the latest version to be nvidia 
295.40.

5. I enabled the El Repo repository:
   $ sudo rpm --import http://elrepo.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-elrepo.org
   $ sudo rpm -Uvh http://elrepo.org/elrepo-release-6-4.el6.elrepo.noarch.rpm

5. I installed the latest Nvidia driver from the El Repo repository:
   $ sudo yum --enablerepo elrepo install kmod-nvidia
   $ sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=elrepo install nvidia-x11-drv-32bit

So, you suggest I install the Nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia

Note: I'm not sure I know how to do that.

I too would suggest that you install the Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia site.  
That is what I do.
You will need to install the kernel headers in order to install the drivers 
from Nvidia site.

Then make the Nvidia driver executable and run it.  Follow the instruction, 
which are not much and you good to go.  Also be aware every time you
upgrade the kernel you are going to have to install the driver new again.
