I've a database-server (IBM x3650 M2) with about 3 TB Data on SAN (Hitachi) with lvm top of softraid (RAID1) based on multipath (2 SAN-boxes in different buildings). After booting the server, multipath starts, but no md starts the mirror. The same configuration with SLES 10 works.
I've completed the installation of a CentOS server.Running the setup utility as root, ive set up a static IP and installed apache. Now this works ok. I can type in the servers IP address from my browser/putty/winSCP and access the server within the intranet. The problem is that i would also like to access the server using its hostname, e.g. http://centos or whatever Currently i cannot do it. I've searched the forums, edited the /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/hosts to no avail no matter what i do i cannot access it. i've disabled some services so im not sure if this is the fault.
I'm configuring a new Centos 5.5 server in replacement of an old W2K server.The topology of our network is simple : one file/dhcp/dns relay server and workstations (PC's and some MAC's) plus network printers and scanners.All the workstations have dynamic IP addresses (easier because a lot of 'dynamic' changes : new persons with their own laptop, ...) and the server and printers/scanners have fixed IP addresses.I edited the dhcpd.conf (see here underneath), I have the file dhcpd.leases but it doesn't start !
i am currently trying to install vsFTP onto my new linux server and btw i just started using linux today this is my first time using linux so i got the ftp installed good it got downloaded and everything then i went to open a port for my server for vsFTP i used this comand to open it "-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 21 -j ACCEPT" then i closed it by pressing ESC then :wq! and it brought me back to my comand line again so now when i try to start the ip table thing with the comand "service iptables start" then when i execute that comand putty respondes with this "Applying iptables firewall rules: iptables-restore: line 1 failed [FAILED]"
I have one server with Jboss and Tomcat installed, I have to start these servers manually everytime I do reboot the server.How I could do to start Jboss and Tomcat automatically, when I do reboot the server?
I have installed Tomcat 5.5 on a server with Centos 5.2. I can start Tomcat from command line with:
/var/lib/tomcat5/bin/catalina.sh start but if I add the command to /etc/rc.local Tomcat don't start on boot, I need to login and manually start. I have add other services to the /etc/rc.local file (mysql and apache) and all start with no problem. Only Tomcat failed to start on boot.
I added the JAVA_HOME to /root/.bashrc: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jdk export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH export CATALINA_HOME=/var/lib/tomcat5 export CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat5
I have tried many different things I found on the net, but nothing worked for me.
I have installed ddclient for use with dyndns.org.
I can manually run it from the prompt with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ddclient start and can verify that it works by checking that my IP has succesfully been changed at dyndns.
When I reboot though, during the startup, I get the following: Starting ddclient: /bin/bash: ddclient: command not found [FAILED]
I am very new to Linux, so I am not sure what or where I should be looking to solve the problem. It seems to me that it must be looking in the wrong spot for ddclient, but I don't know what to check or change to point it at the right place.
I have a Centos 5.4 server, I would like to know how to start NFS automtically when the server boots up so that I won't have to manually start the service after the server boots up. where and how do I accomplish this?
How to get GUI while ssh to a server? This is what I have so far. Code: yum groupinstall "X Window System" "GNOME Desktop Environment" on server How to start the gui?
I'm running CentOS 5.4. I rebooted the machine for the first time in at least a month or so. I reboot into runlevel 3 (no X11). Things seem fine. But when I login and try to start X with "startx", the screen goes blank. X doesn't appear to start. In fact, the only thing I can do is reboot the machine and start over. This is really annoying.
Alright, so I installed the c5-testing versions of httpd, php, and mysql, since my server is used for other daemons primarily and these aren't used as production servers I decided to test the bleeding edge versions of these, report any bugs I find, etc. The problem is, since I updated httpd and mysqld they no longer start up at boot. I tried using chkconfig --add with both of them, but both their init.d scripts have - for levels, so I did not assign any levels. They still do not start up at boot. [URL]
and it starts successfully and the CMS can use it. To start OO at boot time, I wrote a script called 'openofficeserver' and saved it to /etc/init.d. It looks as follows
It takes a few minutes to start during boot and I just did a fresh install in a virtual machine. Haven't touched sendmail so it has default config. Someone told me it could be a DNS issue, but I can do DNS lookups and navigate the web well.

I have changed my hostname to - ns1.searchdns.net by
1) editing the files /etc/sysconfig/network
2) then run the command - echo "ns1.searchdns.net" > /proc/sys/kernel/hostname
3) then restarted the service /etc/init.d/network restart
I run the command hostname and it returns ns1.searchdns.net. But I am also supposed to modify the /etc/hosts file. I am not sure about this. The content looks like this at the moment

On a newly installed centos I updated mysql-* & php-* files using RPM repository, and I installed phpmyadmin. After that i tried restarting mysql and it just said: failed
Code: service mysqld start MySQL Daemon failed to start. Starting mysqld: [FAILED]
I took the hard drive from my server and put it into another machine to install centos with, as the server does not have a working CD drive. So now the situation is that x refuses to start when centos boots. I get a message saying: Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
I performed a system update yesterday to CentOS version 5.4. Now I cannot get vmware to start. I get the error "VMware Server is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured for the running kernel. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command: /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl." I tried running vmware-config but that did not resolve the issue. I saw the bug related to 2.0.x (after the update), but that does not seem to apply to 1.0.9.
Ok, so I have installed apache 22, mysql5.0 and proftpd1.3. When I reboot my server, the above applications do not start up automatically, and I have been trying to figure out how with out much success. know that I need to make some changes inside the init.d directory on my CentOS Server.I am running CentOS 5.4 x86_64 build.I really am not sure how to accomplish the task or where to start.
I got CentOS 5.4 with LAMP. Installed Plesk, tried to configure it, and then error - Quote:Unable to restart Named: dnsmng failed: dnsmng failed: dnsmng: Service /etc/init.d/named failed to restart
I am still pretty green when it comes to centos and linux in general. I have installed rpm and source packages before with little trouble by following the guides available on the support site and wiki for centos.I am running centos 5.4 on a virtual server.I followed the guide for installing vpopmail at URL...mailSince this is a VPS server I cannot install gnome and is why I opted for vpopmail + qmail.
The first issue I have is: I don't know how to tell qmail to start up automatically because after the install of qmail from source as the guide told me to, it did not place a startup files in the /etc/init.d, and I can't find any useful documentation on how to trouble shoot that.I try to use "chkconfig qmail on" and "chkconfig --level 345 qmail on" but both give me the error "error reading information on service qmail: No such file or directory"The version of qmail I am using is the latest 1.0.3, and the version of vpopmail is 5.5.
Vpopmail seems to be working just fine, as is the mysqlauth mod. I check the vpopmail database in mysql, and all the values I used for the domain and user show up there.The settings also show in the qmail configuration directory files for the domain.My first clue as to something being wrong was that when I send an email to the address I setup, I get nothing delivered on the server, but I also do not get any bounce backs or errors to tell me the details of what went wrong.At first I figured it was my firewall, so I disabled iptables.That did not fix it.I also tried disabling SElinux. That also made no difference.
i meet problem on named service, i want to configure my DNS with bind...after i /etc/init.d/named statusThis shows :"rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refusednamed is stopped"
I just upgraded to CentOS 5.6 (been on 5.2 for ages....) and am getting the following error in the apache error_log file:[Sat Jul 02 13:50:25 2011] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec)[Sat Jul 02 13:50:25 2011] [error] SSL Library Error: -8187 Security library: invalid argumentsThe notice entry, I can understand, however the SSL error is halting apache from starting. It has been suggested that this might be a package mismatch issue. I'll be more than happy sharing the package list for this box on request.
