Strange uptime behavior under qemu-kvm

2018-12-11 Thread Sebastian Himmler via users
Hi all,

I've experienced some strange behavior on Fedora 28 client systems. I have some 
of them virtualized on a qemu-kvm hypervisor. All these systems take the 
hypervisor uptime as their own. This is really annoying, since I can not 
determine how long a host is up.

If I take a look in the boot log I can see this:

...snip...
[0.00] Hypervisor detected: KVM
[0.00] kvm-clock: Using msrs 4b564d01 and 4b564d00
[137891542.045328] kvm-clock: cpu 0, msr c6c01001, primary cpu clock
[137891542.045329] clocksource: kvm-clock: mask: 0x max_cycles: 
0x1cd42e4dffb, max_idle_ns: 881590591483 ns
...snap...

Is there any possibility to turn this off, so that the VM takes its own uptime?

Really much thanks for any solution / suggestion! Sebastian

You wouldn't have created them in the correct format.  Those files are 
not owned by any package.  You could try running "sudo dconf update" to 
try recreating them properly.

Re: Anyone else have occasional nvidia crashes?

This only happens at work, a very similar system at home with

[389-users] Multiple suppliers for a single consumer

2018-12-11 Thread Leonard Lawton
Let's say I have nodes A and B setup in a MMR configuration(providers). 
Is it possible to have node C configured as a consumer for both A and B? 
I am wanting to have a high availability setup so node C still receives 
updates if one of the providers goes down.

That is strange.  I would suggest that you backup the current grub

I also wonder if it's necessary to refresh grub's boot files.  Does

Though you still have to think about it (it's only part of a
diagnosis).  That failure just means the device doesn't respond to
that type of probing.  There's plenty of otherwise fully functional
things that ignore pings and other probing.

Is that the full ifconfig output for that interface or does it have

I haven't connected the port yet. Before I do I need to make sure I've
got the correct internet name.


That's the device (ethernet port) name, NOT the host name. The host name
is controlled by the contents of the /etc/hostname file, which is read
at boot time and sets the FQDN (fully qualified domain name) of the
machine.


That was fat finger syndrome. I meant interface name !


The stuff in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files (and NM's
configurations) control how the interfaces themselves are configured
and do not affect the hostname of the machine.


As I understand, NM scans the ifcfg files for HWADDR's. If there's a
match, it names the interface the DEVICE name.


I believe NM uses the DEVICE _or_ the HWADDR to set up the interface.
Whichever one matches the hardware config first is what gets used (I'm
not sure which has precedence). And don't be confused...the values in
the NM config are only used to match the hardware.

And in answer to your second message, NM doesn't do any renaming of
devices. That's still done by the udev rules.


If so, why doesn't the udev rule work ? But I think nm now does device 
renaming:

Both are part of our public /22 address space and have public IPs. We do
our own DNS and one of the machines I used has a PTR record. The other
one doesn't (it has a public IP, but no PTR record as it's part of a
load-balanced cluster and the PTR record for the cluster points at the
VIP--not the RIP).

For all practical purposes, traceroute pings each hop along the way to 
the destination three times.  (That's not really how it does it, but 
don't worry about it.)  If you can't ping someplace, traceroute will 
show you where the problem is, because it will stop getting responses. 
Also, if you've got a slow connection, you can tell where the issue is 
because the return times will suddenly jump.  The only time you need 
root for it is for traceroute -I, because that uses ICMP ECHO for 
probes, but can get response where nothing else does.  Back when I was 
doing tech support for an ISP, we used it all the time on calls to find 
out why connections were slow, and usually to show the caller that it 
was outside our network.

Some (or all) or those might require root, so best to just use root.

Yes: it's a different machine in the next room, using my one

Hoo, boy! I haven't so much as heard of traceroute in ten or 
fifteen years, and never did grep its uses. I can look it up, of course, 
but it might be worth your while to just tell me a command (and to use it 
as root if that should be desirable).

Not quite understanding what you're saying.

The 2 different machines are in the ASN and work all the time?  Are they 
pingable?

All of my assigned IP addresses (even IPV6) have PTR records courtesy of my 
ISP.  In my
case it just seems to be a case of the IP that the beartooth side sees as the 
incoming
connection being pingable or not.

[Real-Time Update]

Decided to connect again from my system(s) behind my router and it now works 
all time time!

Odd, very odd.

Yup. Tried three times from our ASN from two different machines. All
the test machines are behind a firewall (Cisco 65xx) and only one has
a reverse DNS record.

This happens with a system that is behind a router and the router is not

If I try from another host that is directly connected to the Internet and is 
pingable then
connections work all the time.

I get the feeling the folks at Netwisp, Inc. are doing something to "prevent"

I just did the same. From a Spectrum IP here in Orange County, CA,
the system doesn't respond (and Spectrum is a Comcast company).

From a monitoring system in our ASN (a /22 network), it works peachy:

So, it could be that Comcast/Spectrum has blacklisted that IP or its
/24 block (appears to be owned by Netwisp, Inc.). Or that system is
doing something like reverse DNS lookups that aren't resolving and thus
blocking things.

Dunno which. Looks like an argument you need to have with Comcast to
see if they're blacklisting it and if so, why?

I'm now seeing this, too, with F29, kernel 4.19.7, on KDE.  I'm pretty sure
doing this has worked as expected after the upgrade to F29, so it's a recent
change, but I don't know exactly when it started. I'm seeing this with two
different machines (a desktop and a laptop).  This is
emacs-26.1.6.f29.x86_64, in case that matters, and, at the moment,
plasma-workspace-5.14.4-1.fc29.x86_64 which was upgraded to on December 5.

It doesn't actually lock the system.  I can, for instance get to a virtual
terminal and kill the startkde process to get back to roughly where I was.
And I can still see the cursor and move it around (though it becomes invisible 
when it's over the konsole window from which I launched emacs), but except for 
being able to use, e.g., control-F3, to get to a console, I don't seem to be 
able to interact with the open windows or switch to another virtual desktop 
(cursor won't cross the desktop boundary). 

The command "emacs -nw" seems to work fine.

I use it to get to the CLI at my host, sign in, command Alpine, 
give the password again, and then run Alpine -- which I've been using for

I hope the above helps someone. I've been using ssh ever since

Well, yeah, but I really, REALLY doubt it's your router. I've used that
model of router myself. While I was never a big fan of its wifi
abilities (kinda wimpy for my house), wired connections through it never
failed. Unless you took a power hit, did a firmware update or some other
action to your router, I doubt it's your problem. Those routers do have
a log in them. Check it to see if you see anything like what they're
claiming.

A far more likely candidate is that the cable modem got an update from
Comcast (they do that on occasion and without telling you) and it's
screwed up. I had a similar issue with Spectrum (a Comcast company)
here. By use of traceroutes and tcpdumps, I proved that their modem was
the problem. They reflashed my cable modem to the previous firmware it
had (and I had a record of what it was) and suddenly everything was
tickety-boo again.

I think I understand better what is happening.  Whether I can help I
don't know.  A summary:

You have no problem with your ISP (Comcast).  Your problem is with the
third party that handles your private domain for email.  When you try
to connect to that site via ssh, the connection attempts time out.

This sounds like an ssh configuration issue, not a firewall issue.  I'm
not very familiar with ssh since I don't use it a lot, but here goes.

Are you using key based login rather than password login?

If you are, is it possible the keys are incorrect with f29, and you
need to generate new keys?

Have you tried using the -v option to ssh, the verbose option for
debugging so you can see what is happening with the connection process?

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable about ssh will immediately point to
the problem for you.

It makes no sense to me either, and I don't even know how to 
access the firewall; it pretty well has to be whatever F29 defaults to.

My current router is an ASUS AC-1200, which does both, and we use 
both. After fifteen years in this house, and half a dozen routers, we 
have a fair idea which locations a wireless access point can reach. We 
stick to those when (rarely) we use Wi-Fi. We keep it available mainly 
for house guests.

We've been unable for days to connect to our email at my domain; 
when we try our usual ssh  -p , we get 
nothing but eventually "Connection timed out" -- even after having left 
it all night.

 From my Comcast account, I emailed support at my host (two guys in 
a suburb of Chicago afaict). The answer made no sense to me, but
I recited it as best I could to this list-- and meseems it made no sense 
here, either.

 According to them, my own firewall cuts us (i.e., our whole IP) off 
when we try too many times too soon to connect. (We do that, of course, 
by hitting up arrow and Enter.)

Am I making any more sense yet?

You need to install texlive-xetex-7:20180414-28.fc29.x86_64 which

Re: downsized grub menu.

Done.  Re-booted.  No more error messages before the grub menu appears. 
Thank-you!


Now to the greater problem...
When I upgraded to Fedora-28, the text of the grub menu was 
significantly down-sized.  It also seems to be a (darker?) gray.  It is 
split into two pieces into the corners of the left side of the left 
monitor.  It is difficult for me to read.  How do I make the font bigger 
and whiter, and get it all back together?

That's the device (ethernet port) name, NOT the host name. The host name
is controlled by the contents of the /etc/hostname file, which is read
at boot time and sets the FQDN (fully qualified domain name) of the
machine.

The stuff in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files (and NM's
configurations) control how the interfaces themselves are configured
and do not affect the hostname of the machine.

>>> As I understand, NM scans the ifcfg files for HWADDR's. If there's a
>>> match, it names the interface the DEVICE name.

I believe NM uses the DEVICE _or_ the HWADDR to set up the interface.
Whichever one matches the hardware config first is what gets used (I'm
not sure which has precedence). And don't be confused...the values in
the NM config are only used to match the hardware.

And in answer to your second message, NM doesn't do any renaming of
devices. That's still done by the udev rules.

[F29] Command dvipdfmx (texlive) does not work

2018-12-11 Thread Marco Guazzone
Hi,

On my Fedora 29, the command dvipdfmx does not work:

$ rpm -q texlive-dvipdfmx
texlive-dvipdfmx-20180414-28.fc29.x86_64
$ dvipdfmx
bash: dvipdfmx: command not found

Indeed, the executable file '/usr/bin/dvipdfmx' is a broken link that
points to a nonexistent file:

$ ls -al /usr/bin/dvipdfmx
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Nov 26 19:22 /usr/bin/dvipdfmx -> xdvipdfmx
$ ls -al /usr/bin/xdvipdfmx
ls: cannot access '/usr/bin/xdvipdfmx': No such file or directory

I tried to reinstall the texlive-dvipdfmx package with no success.
I already filed a bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1657755

I would like to know if some of you has this problem too, and if (s)he
already found a workaround.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best,

Marco

I had a similar problem: the / partition was not the good one check

I'm sure I booted up on 4.19.6 on this system before without errors.  In 
fact my other system is running 4.19.6 so what might have changed to 
cause this failure?  The system booted fine on 4.19.5.


Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Paolo

Re: Mysqld refuses to start after upgrade to Fedora 29

2018-12-11 Thread Michal Schorm
Hello Danny and everybody else,

MariaDB & MySQL maintainer here!
I see I made it late, however I'll drop here some more answers & tips:


> I don't know where else to ask.
This is a right place.
Other good places could be Fedora IRC, create bugzilla ticket
... or write me personal mail as a last resort :) (can be found in the
package changelog)


> I've just upgraded from Fedora 28 to Fedora 29 and mysqld (version 8.0.13) 
> won't start.
Between F28 & F29 is a big update
MySQL 5.7.24 --> 8.0.13
MariaDB 10.2.19 --> 10.3.10


> Keep in mind that you're really running mariadb ...
DNF will resolve "mysql" to "mariadb"; the "community-mysql" is the
original MySQL.

You can check anytime what you have installed by
$ dnf list installed | grep -e "mysql" -e "mariadb"

In Fedora it is even possible to have server of one and client from
another, but consider it an experimental feature instead of
recommended setup.


> I don't want to mess around switching to MariaDB, do you think that will 
> cause more problems if I do?
Depends. Shouldn't.
It is simmilar to normal database upgrade. For small applications, it
may be drop-in replacement, for huge applications, you'd need to fix
all incompatibilities and can be tricky.

Anyway I wouldn't recommend switching to the other database as an
attemp to fix issues with the previous.
If you feel you need different software, try downgrade to the previous version.
Or try Fedora Modules. (providing MySQL 5.7 on F29)


> "systemctl start mysqld"
This is the corrct form.
For compatibility reasons, the MariaDB can be started with the same
command, instead of its native:
$ systemctl start mariadb
So nothing to change here.


> SELinux
I keep an eye on both MariaDB & MySQL. Both must run without SELinux issues.
If there would be a problem, bugzilla ticket is the solution.
Can be worth checking, though. Errors are a human nature.


> Found another log file I didn't know existed!!
Standard setup are logs in "/var/log/mysqld/" and some usefull
messages in the systemd journal.


> Some of those are fixable via mysql_upgrade
After *every* upgrade, "mysql_upgrade" utility should be ran.
Recomended steps for in-place upgrade for MariaDB (for MySQL it would
be very simmilar):
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8-beta/html-single/configuring_and_deploying_different_types_of_servers/#mariadb-in-place-upgrade

There's:
ExecStartPost=@libexecdir@/mysql-check-upgrade
check in the service that should have been triggered automaticly, though.

For the sake of the archives, I tried booting using RHEL8-beta on this
hardware (Zotac Zbox CI327 with Intel Celeron N3450 inside) and it
behaves exactly like a CentOS 7, no luck. Debian 9 (as Ubuntu 17+) just
works out of the box.

I think you missed one important line in the original post.

# Generated by dnssec-trigger-script

dnssec-triggerd overrides what it provided by the DHCP server.

I have no experience running dnssec-triggerd, but I would think it has some 
configuration
allowing one to specify additional nameservers.  And, it seems to me, dnssec is 
a concern
to the OP so I wonder why run dnssec-trigger at all.

I don't understand your remark: I didn't boot on a removable media, I
