Subject: logrotate hangs!
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 15:22:06 GMT
Hi-
"logrotate" is hanging on me. I've run it in "verbose" mode and it gives me
the lines "reading config" for all that it is set up to rotate- and then
nothing else happens (according the the output from verbose mode.) It does
peg the CPU though (which is how I figured out it is hanging.)
I removed all entries in /etc/logrotate.d/ in order to simply things. I
also commented out all but the settings in /etc/logrotate.conf (commented
out the wtmp stuff in Red Hat's logrotate.conf.
I think whoever programmed this didn't do a good job of deciding what is
printed out when it's in "verbose" mode...
I think the problem is something other than the entries in /etc/logrotate.d/
and /etc/logrotate.conf as this utility was working fine until a few days
ago (and I haven't changed those settings...) Anyone have an idea I can
chase after? I'm out!
I'm using RedHat 6.2 with it's original logrotate-3.3.2-1 RPM.
Thanks for tips!

This always appears when i first start up linux mandrake 7.2; after i have
recompiled the kernel.
As a result, my xircom pcmcia card could not be detected anymore. How do i
resolve these depmod issues?
Regards.

It has to do with how your BIOS reports the amount of RAM, and how the
kernel goes about getting that information: aApparently the methods
have changed several times.) (I believe that the particular code is
in arch/i386/boot/setup.S.)

It depends on the BIOS and which memory-reporting methods it supports.

The link you posted was for software raid. There are a lot of pros and
cons for hardware vs software for RAID, but in the case of IDE, a
hardware raid solution makes more sense than a software one.

delete the modules ( /lib/modules/2.2.17-21mdk/fs/lockd.o,
/lib/modules/2.2.17-21mdk/fs/nfsd.o, etc.)
cd /usr/src/linux
make modules_install
depmod -a
should fix it.

It might not be independant of the kernel, as something might have broken
between 2.2.16 and 2.2.17 (which could have made it into 2.4.x) You might want
to try a kernel from 7.1 (2.2.16)

Except, of course, that you don't. It's append="mem=127M", or "mem=127M" (sans quotes)
after the image label at the boot prompt.
Surprisingly many human beings have faulty ram. I wonder how we cope?

Not only that, but you can put all your disks on ONE SCSI channel
and STILL get better performance than IDE.
Especially under Linux.

Subject: Memory Dissapearing
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 10:18:05 -0600
Probably an unfounded "fear" but JIC.
I recently compiled kernel 2.2.18, and everything is working fine, except
when I run "free -m" ..... It incorrectly reports my 192MB of RAM as 188MB.
Using 2.2.15 is reported it as 191MB, which I figured was just a rounding
issue. But I have since lost another 3MB in what is being reported for
total memory.
It's correctly reported by the BIOS at startup, and my lilo.conf file has
the mem=192M in the append line.
Should I be invesitgating this, or is it just a free problem?

Subject: can't print to the screen with gs (fwd)
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 16:37:42 GMT
Whenever I execute the command gs -q -sOutputFile=- <file.ps> in a
text console, the screen flickers wildly until I press Ctl-C.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for printing to stdout? I've
already re-set the parameters for my monitor in /etc/vga/libvga.config,
which didn't resolve the problem. I've had no problem with the
resolution in X-windows.
If we're not meant to print to the screen with ghostscript outside of
x-windows, why would the above command even be described in the man page?

I had a problem similar to this, and wiping out my /var/log contents cured
things..... Every now and then I get a warning message about some file not
being present in there, but......
It's not a good idea to disable logrotate, since it compresses and stores
your logfiles. Without that, they will grow unchecked.
If you were only vaugely aware that the /var/log directory existed to begin
with, go ahead and delete everything inside of it, and it should cure your
problem. Otherwise, find the logs you want to save, and then delete
everything else.

Since you say there's no firewall in use any longer, be sure to make sure
you don't have any proxy settings left over in your browsers, and other
config files.

Cool- didn't know about strace...
I had had problem this this software called "junkbuster"- it created
millions (litterally I think) of files in /var/log/junkbuster/. I removed
the junkbuster package, deleted all those log files and made sure the
logrotate entry for junkbuster was removed (which it is!)
Anyway, I just figured out that there's a /var/lib/logrotate.status file
which tells logrotate the status of the last time logrotate was run.
Apparently it was trying to do something to all those junkbuster files.
I deleted logrotate.status and now it doesn't hang!
Thanks for the heads up on strace...

Suggest running debug and wiping the master boot record: and then use the
install program to partition and format the hard drive. Just because you
format a drive, doesnt mean the drive "went away". Debug will take care of
that.

Subject: Tarantella
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 16:39:07 GMT
Has anyone set up a Tarantella intranet? I have a small office that has
an NT 4.0 network. I want to convert to a thin client network using
Linux, and will run Linux-native apps, but I have one critical Windows
only app that I'd like to keep on the NT server and access from the
workstations.
Any insight and/or suggestions? Thanks!

ps- I deleted those junkbuster files yesterday- the logrotate apparently
doesn't clean out logrotate.status on it's own...
