Re: [CentOS] Difference between CentOS Linux and CentOS Stream

2021-07-19 Thread Antonio Leding
FWIW, Rocky Linux dropped GA v8.4 on Jun 21st and has been really stable 
for me thus far.  For those not aware, Rocky is based on RHEL and has 
the primary goal to be a CentOS replacement.


Also has solid sponsors - AWS, Microsoft, & Google…

Hello,

Even if centos stream 8 is pretty stable for production usage his eol 
date is until 2024 (same as centos 7).
In the following 2 years i will have to migrate my centos 7 servers to 
something newer. I can choose a distro with the same eol date.

I need a distro which much more long eol date.

Finally i choose to trust the oracle developers who maintain the 
oracle linux (based on rhel source packages).
In the future i will also try the almalinux distro (maintained by 
cloudlinux).

Antonis Kopsaftis

Hello,

Check https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product to find the EOL dates 
for

each version of Centos.

To my opinion the only centos version that is anymore appropriate 
for
production usage is version 7. Centos 8 is production ready but the 
eol

date is only a few months away.

I choosed to migrate my centos 8 machines to oracle linux 8 for
production usage, but many more distros have appeared (almalinux,
rockylinux, springdale linux, etc). All of them follow the EOL dates 
for

RHEL 8.x ( May 2029) and are build from the sources packaes of RHEL.


You are entitled to your opinion :D // but, IMHO ..

If you are not doing anything special with the kernel, then there is
very little difference between CentOS Stream and CentOS Linux.

I would surely rather trust the 1500 RHEL developers who are 
maintaining

CentOS Stream than anyone else .. but that is just my opinion.

Hi,

I am confused between CentOS Linux and CentOS Stream as per

Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.

Re: [CentOS] RHEL changes

2021-01-21 Thread Antonio Leding

Thanks Nick,

I was just writing a post to solicit opinions on a good goto distro for 
CentOS replacement.  I am somewhat dubious on wanting to move to 
free-RHEL and based on what you’ve said here, looks like Rocky 
deserves my attention…


If it does indeed become the successor as you’ve suggested, let’s 
just hope we can keep it from being acquired by RH or any other party.  
Seems to me that once RH decided to help CentOS out and mandated RH 
majority on the board, the writing was on the wall for what occurred in 
Dec…

All this sort of ruled it out for me.


Don't worry, Rocky Linux is in good track; Latest update:

https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/community-update-january-2021/1667

It will be with us very soon, and the formerly CentOS community is 
very active on it!


I am very optimistic with it.

RH is trying to catch all those CentOS users/admins who will jump off 
the train to shift to Rocky Linux (or other), but I think Rocky Linux 
will become the natural successor.


The future is close, we shall see.

Re: [CentOS] rare but repeating system crash in C7

2021-01-03 Thread Antonio Leding
The first question I would have is this:  Has the auto-reboot occurred 
since the machine was last built or did this begin at some point after 
the build?


Apologies if I missed this in the many threads stemming from your OP…

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me figure this out.

every now and then (less than monthly, maybe every 2-4 months, or so,

walk up to my C7 box (my home PC) in the morning, wiggle the mouse to 
wake

up the screen, and after a second or so, instead of a live screen, the
keyboard shift-lock and scroll-lock keys light up. if I wait a few 
(tens

appears. it

boots normally and comes up with everything apparently working fine.

Note that I tend to leave myself logged in 24/7/365 since there's 
nobody

here except my wife and myself, and she has her own Linux box.

as it happened again this morning, I grabbed some lines from
/var/log/messages that show the last few minutes before it rebooted 
and the

first 3 or four statements as it began to reboot:

Re: [CentOS] mariadb or mysql web gui

2020-12-20 Thread Antonio Leding
I’m not sure the host OS is relevant but I am sure that the PHP 
version you are running is very relevant.


All that said, I moved from phpMyAdmin to Adminer over year ago and 
never looked back:

Hello,

Is there a web gui available in CentOS 8 for managing mariadb and/or

an RPM for it in EPEL for CentOS 8.


Is there a popular alternative to phpMyAdmin that's packaged for 
CentOS 8?
