[Vserver] CPAN and sys$command (gentoo specific prob???)
ok i am firmly convinced never to touch cpan in guests. ever. it not only blows up every time as mentioned in earlier messages but it then proceeds to leave a file in the root directory of the guest that is unremovably linked to /sys. i spent hours searching google and the gentoo support forums on the cpan error about terminal not supporting addhistory.. tons of entries and not one solution. so the heck with it. any additions to cpan will be done manually via packages. when i try to remove the file cpan leaves when it exits with the no history support, it says it is a directory.. here is the ls on it -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 23 Sep 23 20:40 sys$command looks like a normal file to me.. so since this is experimental, i used rmdir on it. /sys vanished and it stayed in the directory listing. dang thing is permanent. operations on this file give no unexpected error messages but everything i do to that file affects only /sys since im the only one to ever see the guests in this machine, im leaving it alone unless it will present some kind of problem later on. i dont need it for this machine, but i must solve this cpan problem for the next machine as there will be guests run by other admins that are cpan and perl crazy. i think their breakfast bowls have perl /cpan logos on them! before i tackle cpan though i must study iproute2 and get the 3rd nic to work on a 3rd network in this machine (tomorrow i hope). Bertl hinted possibly something wrong in the paths configurations so when i go to cpan debugging readline is the first place im looking for that line number and go from there. Hollow if you are reading this, with the stage3-latest on your site, do you have any perl cpan problems? remember i only use remote terminals via ssh into the machines. -- Chuck "...and the hordes of M$*ft users descended upon me in their anger, and asked 'Why do you not get the viruses or the BlueScreensOfDeath or insecure system troubles and slowness or pay through the nose for an OS as *we* do?!!', and I answered...'I use Linux'.

[Vserver] majorly messed
I thnk there is something majorly messed up here.. this template was the first one i tried configuring cpan for since it was the first machine that would support guests that need it... i reinstalled perl (first template for that too) and the package system updated it from 5.8.5 to 5.8.6.. same error... ok so i exited off the template and did vserver template stop i have the ctrl alt del fix in the inittab yet it timed out. checking vps ax it was not running. vserver template start said it was running so i went into /var/run and deleted the context pointer in vserver.rev.. when i tried to start it it sits there and the server never starts... this is the oddest problem.. ive never had a problem with the last 3 machines i did.. at least not fatal like this.. maybe i should have just left cpan alone:) hate to trash the template... took me all day installing packages in it that i want available to the guests.. maybe ill just try installing a new stage 3 system and base layout.. just looked and im rambling.. :( -- Chuck "...and the hordes of M$*ft users descended upon me in their anger, and asked 'Why do you not get the viruses or the BlueScreensOfDeath or insecure system troubles and slowness or pay through the nose for an OS as *we* do?!!', and I answered...'I use Linux'.

This is actually what I wanted to know, because i suspect that my troubles may lie in a broken Gentoo installation or hardware errors. Both are very likely at the moment. First step will be to see whether I can get the server to run stable with Gentoo AMD64 and no vserver. If thats a success, I will add vserver-support and see what happens. If I run into problems, I'll give you an update along with system information. -- Thank you, Johnny Rose Carlsen ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

[Vserver] Vserver on Gentoo AMD64 system
Hi, Does anyone has any experience running Vserver on a Gentoo AMD64 system? Gentoo advices one to only use the "gentoo-sources" kernel on AMD64, because of some AMD64 patches. My install uses the "vserver-sources" kernel, but my system definately have some troubles with oopses and processes getting killed. Does anyone have any good experiences? -- Best regards, Johnny Rose Carlsen ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

From looking at line 221 (assuming your Term::Cap looks like mine) there's something wrong with your PATH environment variable. Its also possible that the infocmp program is not installed (it comes with the ncurses-bin package) which Term::Cap uses to determine your terminal's capabilities. Either way this looks like a configuration problem on your end.

Re: [Vserver] perl CPAN in guests
Hi Chuck, You need to run emerge metadata && eupdatedb I do not entirely understand what's going on but the index for portage is out of whack. I have the same problem whenever I esync my portage (I have the portage tree on a separate partition and share it on several vservers). After the esync runs on the vserver where I want it to run the others need to run the command above.
