[CentOS-es] Problemas con PHP 5.2 y webmail
Hola listeros Tengo un problema con las aplicaciones web con las cuales manejo el server. Tengo Drupal, PostfixAdmin. PhpMyAdmin, Roundcube(sin instalar), Todas las aplicacinoes me funcionan bien con mi version 5.1.6 de PHP, todas menos el Roundcube el cual me pide al version 5.2 La bajo e instalalo de los repo de remi y cuando la bajo todo me deja de funcionar porque la version 5.2 de los repo de remi no es compatible con las librerias para mbstring y mysql de los rpm originales del Centos 5.2, ademas de que los repo de remi no traen estas librerias. Vuelvo a mi version original de PHP la 5.1.6 y todo trabaja de maravillas exepto el Roundcube. Quiero instalar el Roundcube como webmail no quiero tener que morir en la ardilla, por favor alguno tiene alguna solucion o ha pasado por lo mismo??? Puedo obligar al Roundcube a instalarse con mi version 5.1.6 de PHP o tienen el enlace de descarga de una version de Roundcube que no utilize el PHP 5.2 y que sea estable, yo estoy intentando instalar la version 0.2-stable. Desde ya gracias salu2 luisito ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es

Pasa que existe un gran problema, yo no tengo internet, sino que tengo los repo de remi local porque un socio me los bajo. Por eso veia como variante salvar las bases de mysql y reinstalar con el del remi en caso de que el error fuera por el mysql, ya que yo no puedo contar con los repo de internet, gran problema, pero por desgracia asi es. Por favor aclarame si el error de las dependencias es por causa del mysql o por que en el remi no estan estas dependencias, ya que las estaba buscando y no las encontre, al menos en el que tengo descagardo. salu2 luisito ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es

Is this because you changed the original post and you thought I was replying to the other part of the original post. Sorry? I did not change anything. You replied to *my* posting with questions to the original poster and with *nothing* that referred to my posting. Do you do the same in face-to-face discussion? Person A has a problem and asks something in a round, Person B replies and you then ask person B for further information about the problem that person A has? Really? Won't you rather address person A directly? Are you saying everyone should create a new thread path from the original post each time not each time, it depends on the natural flow of discussion. I think this should be obvious. instead of keeping a thread going to get a solution solved? Simply reply to that posting that you refer to. That could be the root posting or any posting down the thread. Again, it depends what you refer to. If you think that a thread is built by appending the next posting always to the previous posting and it's a neverending single chain of postings, then you got it wrong. This would make it a great pain to find answers if everyone had to start from scratch every time when they posted. Not at all. It organizes the thread in the natural flow of discussion. This is not a forum, which often are built on top of broken software that doesn't know anything about flow of discussion - e.g. they are unthreaded. If you got this bad habit from forums - get rid of it! Even in most forums you can quote correctly and thus indicate which posting you refer to although they might all be chained together. No one else has been asked to do this. I asked you because you used *my* posting as a root instead of the correct posting and so I immediately recognized it as it came in as a follow-up to me but wasn't one. I'm sure not scrutenizing each and every posting for this. Most people here do understand threading.

Akemi, I have loaded cinelerra from rpmforge but I'm having a really hard time getting the avi to even show up in it. I open cinelerra and go to fileload files and select the avi video but nothing shows up. I know this is a valid file because I can play it. Is cinelerra capable of editing already created AVI? According to the documentation, Because AVI (Audio-Video Interleave) is so fragmented with varied audio and video codecs, you may not be able to play all AVI formatted files. It's not looking good. My friend who is an expert in video editing mentioned the other day LIVES: http://lives.sourceforge.net/ I have not looked at it yet, but that is another possibility.

I have loaded cinelerra from rpmforge but I'm having a really hard time getting the avi to even show up in it. I don't know cinelerra, and if you can believe, I don't have a single CentOS box w/ a desktop heh but I would presume you have to demux the audio and video into separate files as that is how most non linear nle's work...

Doesn't have to be very big to keep the power up for long enough for the drive disk caches to get emptied. And I've seen data centers with amaizing multiple layers of redundant power. I'm thinking production database Secondary servers should be configured for reliability, and production Primary servers should be configure for speed. The secondary will be extremely paranoid. WT Direct DisDskCache. Not sure understand the performance benefit/risk trade offs well enough to choose intelligently for the primary. Especially when the application may be making lots of assumptions about what is happening on the lower levels. And may have much more memory available to do its own caching and optimization. Does the controller really know enough about what's going on in the drive to make effective use of the drives cache to speed things up? My guess is that I'll start with WB Cached DisDskCache on the primary, and may be surprised where we end up. And it seems to me that ADRA is almost always the better choice.

[CentOS] Intermittent NFS problems with NetApp server
I've been experiencing some intermittent problems accessing at NetApp server via NFS and automount. I'm running CentOS 5.2 (fully updated) on all my servers and workstations. Usually, everything is working just fine, when suddenly we get the following error: /bin/sh: /home/epd/srcref/swtools/Crontabs/ run_release_requests.sh: Permission denied This is actually an email from cron because we try to run that shell script every minute (yes, the crontab entry is * * * * * /home/epd/ srcref/swtools/Crontabs/run_release_requests.sh), and /home/epd is an automounted directory. Here is its map entry: epd -rw,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 XX:/epd When this is happening, other users can successfully access that directory on the server. The directory is actually mounted correctly, and unmounting doesn't fix the issue. Furthermore, the same user that is being denied access, can successfully access that directory on a different server. The problem usually lasts about 20 minutes and then resolves itself. We have been pulling our hair out trying to debug this problem, because it's intermittent and the debug window is fairly short. Recently we have been getting help from one of the NetApp admins, and he ran a command on the NetApp that produced the following warning: The TCP receive window advertised by NFS client XXX is 5888. This is less than the recommended value of 32768 bytes. You should increase the TCP receive buffer size for NFS on the client. Some googling around got me to check these values for TCP: # sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_mem net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 98304131072 196608 # sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_rmem net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 409687380 4194304 # sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_wmem net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 409616384 4194304 So these seem fine to me (i.e., the max is greater than 32768). Is there an NFS (as opposed to TCP) setting I should be tweaking? Any ideas why the NetApp is issuing those warnings? Any other suggestions on how to debug this problem?

Block size: 4096 Fragment size:4096 I could not find any differences that would explain the behaviour. Have you seen this before? Can you reproduce it on your systems? Do you know how to get the CentOS 4 behaviour? More on the point: I'm migrating some data from CentOS 4 to CentOS 5, it's around 70GB of millions of small files. I would like it to still take 70GB, not 140GB. For now, I'm working around this issue by using -T small to mke2fs, I'm not sure if it's going to have the effect I want, and I'm not sure about any other impact (performance?) it might have on my filesystem.

Usually, everything is working just fine, when suddenly we get the following error: /bin/sh: /home/epd/srcref/swtools/Crontabs/ run_release_requests.sh: Permission denied This is actually an email from cron because we try to run that shell script every minute (yes, the crontab entry is * * * * * /home/epd/ srcref/swtools/Crontabs/run_release_requests.sh), and /home/epd is an automounted directory. Here is its map entry: epd -rw,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 XX:/epd When this is happening, other users can successfully access that directory on the server. The directory is actually mounted correctly, and unmounting doesn't fix the issue. Furthermore, the same user that is being denied access, can successfully access that directory on a different server. The problem usually lasts about 20 minutes and then resolves itself. We have been pulling our hair out trying to debug this problem, because it's intermittent and the debug window is fairly short. Recently we have been getting help from one of the NetApp admins, and he ran a command on the NetApp that produced the following warning: The TCP receive window advertised by NFS client XXX is 5888. This is less than the recommended value of 32768 bytes. You should increase the TCP receive buffer size for NFS on the client.

I've been able, in the past, to affect things like this by tuning the number of i-nodes up/down when making the file system. Generally though, I'm reducing the number as there is a lot of space that can be gained since normally there will be 1 per block, IIRC. Since my desktop FS doesn't experience that much growth, and lots of the files are large, this is safe. YMMV. The output of the tune2fs command might give some hints. Also, using mke2fs with the -n parameter will tell you what it would do if you were to (re) make the file system. snip sig stuff HTH -- Bill ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It shouldn't be doing that. Was this an old filesystem, originally created without security attributes? What does tune2fs show for the inode size? On my Fedora 10 laptop, where the filesystem was originally set up with SELinux attributes, the inode size is 256 bytes and the security attributes are stored in the inode itself. On my systems without SELinux, the inode size is 128 bytes, so the penalty is the additional 128 bytes per inode, not 4K per file. If you run debugfs on the partition and use its 'stat' command you can see where the security attributes are stored. AFAIK if you are running SELinux there is no way to keep it out of any filesystem capable of supporting extended attributes. -- Bob Nichols NOSPAM is really part of my email address.
