Oh -- you know, not sure how I completely missed this.  Anyway, yes,
the issue was that the original Xen packages were using the CentOS
core version of seabios, which includes a patch which breaks Xen HVM.
In -candidate I've built a new version of seabios, which (as you've
seen) now works.

Right ... I said 'produced by' in relation to Citrix, but I clearly
meant to say 'lead by' instead.

The point I am trying to make is that we (the SIG, as a community) want
to produce RPMs here (in the SIG) that are of use to the community and
not fragment to a bunch of different individual people making a bunch of
different RPM sets that the community does not know who produces, etc.

If we can produce the RPMs instead on the community build system where
we (the SIG .. with representation from both the CentOS Project and
Citrix) can sign and release the packages then users can be much more
sure everything works, etc.

For that to happen, we have to work as a group.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

Just to be clear -- RPMs are produced by the CentOS Virt SIG, which is
meant to be an open, community-developed project.  At the moment the
xen maintainer happens to work for Citrix, but that's neither here nor
there.

If there are people who feel like they want to contribute but can't,
please speak up.  It takes an effort to do things "in the open", as it

A lot of it is market forces. A lot of people who used to run their
own VM's have basically given up, and allow AWS or similar services to
do it for them. Learning a few command line tools is often a *lot*
faster, and cheaper, than running your own virtualization
infrastructure. Heck, I *published* the first public RPM's for Xen,
way back in 1997 before it was bought by Citrix, and I don't have the
time and hardware in hand to do it anymore!

I'm also afraid a lot of us have basically given up on CentOS 7, while
the developer community deals with all the multiple OS issues of the
systemd reworking of network and init configuration, the-arranged
"/bin" versus "/usr/bin" overlap of component locations, and the
profound lack of EPEL for CentOS 6 or Fedora published perl and python
modules ported to CentOS 7. That's not a CentOS team issue, that's a
RHEL issue, but it's profoundly lowering interest in both hypervisors
and VM's that are CentOS 7 based.

And that is one of the parts that is sucking away testing time on a
lot of open source or freeware projects. The systemd integration of
init scripts, networking tools, and the /bin symlink to /usr/bin have
been breaking a *lot* of previously stable components. A lot of us are
basically giving CentOS 7 a miss until and unless the rest of the
stable server community can catch up with the environment changes.

So actually, the SIGs are supposed to be community efforts -- and my
long term hope was that once the SIG was "jump-started", that
community members would step up to take over -- or at least step up to
help significantly.

A number of reasons C7 has "stalled":

* Lack of time on my part. I only work 4 days a week for Citrix, and I
have significant other duties.  Normally I can only spend a day or so
a week on CentOS stuff; and in particular, the review load relating to
the 4.6 feature freeze (beginning of July) was very high.  Then I got
married and went on holiday for 3 weeks in August, which also didn't
help. :-)

* Apparent lack of testing by the community. About a month after the
C7 "beta", I was about to announce an actual release, when I happened
to discover that HVM guests wouldn't boot -- not under any
configuration.  This is really basic core functionality that nobody at
all had tested (or if they had they hadn't complained).  This
convinced me that I couldn't rely on community testing, and prompted
me to spend some time writing an automated test suite that would at
least do a basic smoke-test for a number of configurations.  I've got
this working for the core xen package, but I was planning on extending
it to libvirt before declaring CentOS 7 "ready".

I'm sorry I haven't been very pro-active about pushing to the xen
package repository -- I didn't know anyone was looking.  (If you asked
about it, then I must have missed it.)

I would be happy to have help improving the packages.  I would be
*very* happy to have help maintaining the Xen4CentOS packages, and I
would be *delighted* if someone wanted to take over maintainership of
the packages entirely.

FYI I have just finished rebasing things to 4.6-rc2 (there are
packages in virt7-xen-46-candidate now), and am in the process of
switching things over to systemd.

The Virt SIG has IRC meetings on freenode channel #centos-devel every
two weeks -- the next one is today (8 September) at 2pm BST (3pm UTC).
If anyone wants to help contribute / see what the status of Xen4CentOS
is, feel free to pop in.

[CentOS] CentOS 7.1.1503 + Dovecot + IPA

2015-09-08 Thread Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu 
Hi Everyone,

I'm running an IPA server on CentOS 7 successfully and now I want to
change my Dovecot setup to use GSSAPI for IMAP authentication instead
of a flat "userdb" file. I've already joined the Dovecot box to the IPA
domain - ssh and ipa policies and all that are working properly.

I read a number of articles on how to configure Dovecot for GSSAPI auth
and they all said the same thing (even Red Hat's official how to on it
agreed). But, when I set up Evolution on my Fedora 22 system to use
GSSAPI, Dovecot's log records this:

Sep  8 13:49:55 mailman02 dovecot: auth: Panic: file auth-request.c:

I've already asked on the Dovecot list about my GSSAPI auth problems
and was told that this is a bug in Dovecot which does not exist in the
latest release (I don't know when the problem was actually fixed).

My question is simply this: does anyone else have
dovecot-2.2.10-4.el7_0.1.x86_64 working with GSSAPI auth against an IPA
server? IPA is also running on CentOS 7.1.1503.

The stats shows it sees all the files, but only moves the dir /etc/named

It does not move the /etc/name* files (like /etc/named.conf).

By file count, it is 'seeing' all the files, but not moving them.

As you can see, xenstored.service is running, but disabled by the 
package installation. This is, because xenstored.service apparently got 
overseen in the source-rpm's spec-file's post runtime/preun runtime. See 
diff [1] for details.


Also, I think xenstored should write a pidfile. You might consider 
adding to /usr/lib/systemd/system/xenstored.service:

PIDFile=/var/run/xenstored.pid
and change
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/xenstored
to
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/xenstored --pid-file /var/run/xenstored.pid 
$XENSTORED_ARGS


Hope this helps, this is just a quick start. I'll continue checking and 
reporting during the next days.

Thomas

Re: [CentOS] C6 firefox esr h.264 support on youtube

2015-09-08 Thread Robert Arkiletian 
I had already looked at the nux repo. They may have that package for C7 but
I can't see it for C6.

I'm thinking h.264 gstreamer support must be provided by another package in
C6.

I have gstreamer-plugins-base & good installed. And I've already tried ugly
and gstreamer-ffmpeg.

[CentOS] C6 firefox esr h.264 support on youtube

2015-09-08 Thread Robert Arkiletian 
I was able to get h.264 support on www.youtube.com/html5 on fedora 21 by
installing

gstreamer1-libav

but that package does not exist in C6 (or it's popular third party repos)

What is the name of the package which adds h.264 to firefox on
youtube/html5 in C6?

Please open bugs for these issues. The CPU features/flags is an

Oh, .. I must be missing something here. Posting fixes seems like an

Odd. I thought you could. The only one missing was the PV framebuffer +
intial domain support but the rest were enabled. And that initial domain
support was due to them mucking with Kconfig to outright disable it.

I think you'll find that package in the nux repo:

  gstreamer1-libav.x86_64  1.0.6-1.el7.nux  

I don't know if that will do what you're after, and I can't try this
out as my desktop machines are all C7.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 7.1.1503 + Dovecot + IPA

2015-09-08 Thread Alice Wonder 

You could try rebuilding this src.rpm -

http://awel.domblogger.net/7/libre/src/repoview/dovecot.html

That's what I use for Dovecot on CentOS 7 but I build it against 
LibreSSL so you probably don't want my binary RPM but the src.rpm will 
build against stock CentOS OpenSSL just fine w/o modification.


I don't know if it will fix your issue but it is latest release that the 
dovecot list claims has the issue fixed.

Hi Everyone,

I'm running an IPA server on CentOS 7 successfully and now I want to

domain - ssh and ipa policies and all that are working properly.

I read a number of articles on how to configure Dovecot for GSSAPI auth
and they all said the same thing (even Red Hat's official how to on it
agreed). But, when I set up Evolution on my Fedora 22 system to use
GSSAPI, Dovecot's log records this:

latest release (I don't know when the problem was actually fixed).

My question is simply this: does anyone else have
dovecot-2.2.10-4.el7_0.1.x86_64 working with GSSAPI auth against an IPA
server? IPA is also running on CentOS 7.1.1503.

[CentOS] Saving session with terminal window open upon logout

2015-09-08 Thread Gilbert Sebenste 

Hello everyone,

I tried Googling this, looking through admin notes...and I couldn't find 
this. And I know someone smart out here has the answer!


When I log out of a user account, I want it to, when I log back in,
have a terminal window pop up on my Gnome windows display, as I did
before I logged out.

How do I save a session before or as I log out? I am running
Centos 6.7, 64-bit.

Gilbert

I don't know if you noticed, but Fedora and CentOS aren't the same
distribution.  The users target different things.

That said, it would actually be nice to be able to share a lot of the
packaging effort with Fedora, if they're willing and if it's possible.
It's been something I've thought about for quite a while.

If you have any concrete suggestions, feel free to share them.

Because we want to have source code that works on both CentOS-6 (based
on RHEL 6 Source, which was based on Fedora 12) and CentOS-7 (based on
RHEL 7 Sources, which was based on Fedora 18/19).

So, the source code for Fedora 22 will not work with both of those.  We
DID start with the Fedora 12 version of the RPMs, that worked with
CentOS-6 and we have rolled in kernels from the kernel.org LTS tree for
stability, etc.

We have been producing a CentOS-6 version for several year now.  We now
need to make that work with CentOS-7.  It is not just as simple as
taking Fedora code, that is always latest and greatest and recompiling
it.  If it was, RHEL (and therefore CentOS) would have no need to exist
at all.  Everyone could just use Fedora for everything.

It is not the backuppc settings, it is your apache settings.  The
default setup requires that apache is setup to run as:

 User backuppc
 Group backuppc

There are other ways to do this if you have to have httpd run as the
apache user for other things, but the easiest thing to do (if you can),
is to set the User and Group to backuppc in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
and restart httpd.

I have not run backuppc on CentOS-7 (I ran it on CentOS-6), I have not
run it in 3 years, and my backuppc machine(s) had no other things on
them that needed to run httpd for any other reason .. so others might
have better advise if your machine is not single purpose.

Sorry, I didn't have that repository set up for C6 and when trying
to do a quick switch I didn't actually manage to switch it from C7
to C6. I agree, I don't see it there for C6, even in their -testing.

Looking at rpmfind it appears to be available from RpmFusion back to
fedora-18. That may not be old enough (forget what the fc "base" is
for C6), but you may be able to find older fc versions with a little
looking.

CPU features/flags are just outright is not there.
I tend to run into the problems as I am trying to use Xen for my
development environment.
I have posted fixes and bugs in the past and will in the future.
But Xen/Centos does not have a big dedicated development or a small one
for that matter.
So Xen development will lag a bit.
This is not a criticism but just a fact of life.

When I fight my way through my current provisioning environment I will
be likely posting more bugs.
I have to admit that I am not the best contributor because often I just
fix the bugs.
Partly because being outside the community learning all the nuances of
posting fixes is way more effort than just fixing them.

As of the last time I checked you could not build a RedHat 7 kernel with
Xen enabled.
The point to be made is that Fedora is not RHEL and Centos is more like
RHEL.

So comparing Centos to Fedora is like complaining that RHEL should
support all the current Fedora packages/features.
There is a relationship between all of them but they are not the same.

Hello everyone,

I tried Googling this, looking through admin notes...and I couldn't find this. 
And I know someone smart out here has the answer!

When I log out of a user account, I want it to, when I log back in,
have a terminal window pop up on my Gnome windows display, as I did
before I logged out.

How do I save a session before or as I log out? I am running
Centos 6.7, 64-bit.

[CentOS-virt] Xen 4.4.3 packages available in virt6-xen-44-testing

2015-09-08 Thread George Dunlap 
So first of all, if you've used the CBS before, please note the name
change -- it's no longer virt6-testing, but virt6-xen-44-testing.

Easiest way to install:

rpm -ivh 
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-xen-44-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/centos-release-xen-7-7.el6.x86_64.rpm

This will set up yum repositories for both the eventual release
repositories (enabled by default), and the community build system
repositories (disabled by default).

At the moment, all packages will be stored in the virt-xen-44-testing
repository.  You can either enable this by default by editing
/etc/yum.repos.d/VirtSIG-Xen.repo, or by adding
"--enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing".

If you want, you can edit defaults /etc/sysconfig/xen-kernel

Next, run 'yum update' to get the new kernel:

yum --enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing update kernel

Now install xen:

yum --enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing install xen

This should grab both xen and the updated kernel package.  It should
also automatically:
* Add default commandline parameters for Xen and Linux when booting under Xen
* Arrange for xen to come up first in the grub
* Set the default boot entry to Xen.

That's it!  Reboot and you should be good to go.

Libvirt packages haven't been rebuilt -- not sure if they work or not.
If they don't, let me know and I'll re-submit them..

Please report any problems or feedback to this list.

directory "/var/named";

zone "43.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {

This will create/modify file "/var/named/data/192.168.43" and works with

FIrstly Centos is primarily a RHEL clone.
This means that the primary design decisions are to be as RHEL like as
possible.
After that there are additions and upgrades.

Secondly Fedora does not actively support Xen.
As a long time Xen and RH/Fedora user I have spent lots of time
building/rebuilding broken/missing packages in Fedora.
Quite frankly Xen under Fedora is somewhat broken.
Libvirt support for KVM is very good because RH pays people to support KVM.
Xen under the old config format has reasonable support(possibly 60% of
features) but under libxl the support is much worse (possibly 30% of
features).

Thirdly RedHat has been active at times to remove Xen support in favour
of KVM(Their own virtualization technology).
Xen has been driven to some extents by the needs of Citrix and although
they have helped others build packages for Fedora and libvirt its a good
will effort and its hard to expect Citrix to spend effort on work that
may not be in their best corporate interests.

George,

Just an FYI - I tried to run the rpm command and none of the repos showed 
up enabled by default.


I tried enabling them manually, but I get this error:

 One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - xen),
 and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the
 only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix"
 this:

I didn't spend too much time debugging - but that was what I got straight 
away after installing centos-release-xen-7-7.el6.x86_64.rpm and manually 
enabling some of the repos.

First of all, I fully agree, that forked repos are undesirable. However, to
the casual observer (like me), there are hardly any ressources for Xen on
CentOS 7. There are some beta packages, as announced in the start if this
thread, with the latest update being 4.4.2 on 4th of august. I have not yet
found any git repo to check out the current Xen 4 CentOS 7 development
effort - only the source rpms to the above packages could be used. Likewise,
the response on the list on the announcements of the Xen on CentOS 7 beta
packages was kind of mute and no further updates were given. This led me to
the - apparently false - assumption, that the project kind of fell asleep.
I'd be more than happy to at least test development packages and give
feedback.

Your statement "These RPMs are produced by Citrix, so we need to get the
right" irritates me, as I was completely unaware of any "rights" from Citrix
to be waited for.

Anyway, I will wait for the official Xen4CentOS packages for CentOS 7 and
keep my stuff out of the public to avoid useless forks.

See my comments inline as appropriate

So actually, the SIGs are supposed to be community efforts -- and my
long term hope was that once the SIG was "jump-started", that
community members would step up to take over -- or at least step up to
help significantly.
Cool. Good to know. Well, while I have been using CentOS for several 
years now in both private and professional setups, I have to admit, that 
so far I did not delve into the community itself and make myself 
familiar with its processes and procedures.

It might be time to change that :)


A number of reasons C7 has "stalled":

* Lack of time on my part. I only work 4 days a week for Citrix, and I
have significant other duties.  Normally I can only spend a day or so
a week on CentOS stuff; and in particular, the review load relating to
the 4.6 feature freeze (beginning of July) was very high.  Then I got
married and went on holiday for 3 weeks in August, which also didn't
help. :-)
Well, first of all congrats to your recent marriage! I know what your 
were up to lately, as I did the same some 6+ years ago. And much like 
you, I have to dedicate my personal free-time to any effort.
On the plus side, I am a sysadmin actually using Xen4CentOS on top of 
CentOS 6 in a professional production environment, spanning 50 
virtualisation hosts and running over 600 VMs (over 1,500 pCPUs over 
10Tbytes RAM). So I get pretty much of an impression, what it means to 
actually use Xen4CentOS.


* Apparent lack of testing by the community. About a month after the
C7 "beta", I was about to announce an actual release, when I happened
to discover that HVM guests wouldn't boot -- not under any
configuration.  This is really basic core functionality that nobody at
all had tested (or if they had they hadn't complained).  This
convinced me that I couldn't rely on community testing, and prompted
me to spend some time writing an automated test suite that would at
least do a basic smoke-test for a number of configurations.  I've got
this working for the core xen package, but I was planning on extending
it to libvirt before declaring CentOS 7 "ready".
You already found out in another post, that I actually did test the 
CentOS 7 packages early in july and reported to the list. That lack of 
any response on my report triggered me to do Xen 4 on CentOS7 packages 
myself.


I'm sorry I haven't been very pro-active about pushing to the xen
package repository -- I didn't know anyone was looking.  (If you asked
about it, then I must have missed it.)

See above.


I would be happy to have help improving the packages.  I would be
*very* happy to have help maintaining the Xen4CentOS packages, and I
would be *delighted* if someone wanted to take over maintainership of
the packages entirely.
Well, I'd be happy to help. I can easily test things out on my private 
setup, which is all geared towards Xen and virtualisation anyway, so I 
am all setup. To actually contribute, I would ideally like some git-repo 
to checkout, to prep patches against. Those patches, I could send to you 
for review. If there is some process aligned to "the CentOS way of doing 
things", I would need a pointer to some docs to make myself familiar with.
As I have not the faintest clue about what it takes to actually maintain 
a package, i am - at least now - the inappropriate person.


FYI I have just finished rebasing things to 4.6-rc2 (there are
packages in virt7-xen-46-candidate now), and am in the process of
switching things over to systemd.
Yeah, saw that yesterday in the repo. Ok then, I will fetch it soon and 
start testing it in one of my CentOS-7 Xen guests (I run nested-Xen). If 
that test succeeds, I could update the host. That way, these packages 
would get some real-world test, running my zoo of guests.

George,

Never mind - I had an old Xen repo I was trying to use some time ago... 
This was me.


Sorry!

George,

Just an FYI - I tried to run the rpm command and none of the repos showed up 
enabled by default.


I tried enabling them manually, but I get this error:

One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - xen),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the
only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix"
this:

I didn't spend too much time debugging - but that was what I got straight 
away after installing centos-release-xen-7-7.el6.x86_64.rpm and manually 
enabling some of the repos.

So first of all, if you've used the CBS before, please note the name
change -- it's no longer virt6-testing, but virt6-xen-44-testing.

Easiest way to install:

rpm -ivh 
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-xen-44-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/centos-release-xen-7-7.el6.x86_64.rpm


This will set up yum repositories for both the eventual release
repositories (enabled by default), and the community build system
repositories (disabled by default).

At the moment, all packages will be stored in the virt-xen-44-testing
repository.  You can either enable this by default by editing
/etc/yum.repos.d/VirtSIG-Xen.repo, or by adding
"--enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing".

If you want, you can edit defaults /etc/sysconfig/xen-kernel

Next, run 'yum update' to get the new kernel:

yum --enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing update kernel

Now install xen:

yum --enablerepo=virt-xen-44-testing install xen

This should grab both xen and the updated kernel package.  It should
also automatically:
* Add default commandline parameters for Xen and Linux when booting under 
Xen

* Arrange for xen to come up first in the grub
* Set the default boot entry to Xen.

That's it!  Reboot and you should be good to go.

Libvirt packages haven't been rebuilt -- not sure if they work or not.
If they don't, let me know and I'll re-submit them..

Please report any problems or feedback to this list.

What?! Straight from the documentation:

"   -e, --rsh=COMMAND   specify the remote shell to use"

I didn't explicitly state that it was "wrong," just implied (correctly)
that it was unnecessary.
