I am getting the following error when I use the pear -V command:Warning: realpath(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s)(/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php) in System.php on line 459I tried adding /tmp to my php.ini file, but then when I use the pear -V command it doesn't do anything. I do not get any errors or anything.I am also trying to install symfony and have the same situation described above when I use the following command: pear cannel-discover pear.symfony-project.comDoes anyone have any thoughts? If not the solution, does anyone have any suggestions on how to begin troubleshooting this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedOur CentOS 5 server had a weird issue last Friday. We couldn't run any bash commands, such as ls, vi. It said that it could not find /bin/ls. The only commands we can run are internal commands, such as ps, cd. After we reboot the server, everything is back.
I don't know what's wrong with it. Does anyone give me a explanation?
I've had a server setup working perfectly for the last 2 years. Today we installed a newer version of postgresql and recompiled apache/php.
Postgresql will not start now.
"service postgresql start" = /var/lib/pgsql/data is missing. Use "service postgresql initdb" to initialize the cluster first. To initdb we need to be as user postgres.
"su - postgres" = "no file or directory"
In /etc/passwd = postgres:x:26:26:PostgreSQL Server:/var/lib/pgsql:/bin/bash
how i can login as postgres user and enter these commands?
I'm having a hard time to access MySQL from the local or remote shell.
If I try to access MySQL, using mysql -u root -pxxxx I get the error 1045 Access denied...
MySQL is running and I can access it, using phpmyadmin.
There must be something blocking shell access. Can anybody confirm and tell me how to check/configure for shell access?
I'm using ca preconfigured CenOS from PBX in a flash and it seems they did some security settings - but I can't find any further information.
I know I should probably post there, but the Mods didn't activate my account yet. And you know how it is if you try to figure something out. You won't stop.
I was wondering is there a way to bind say "F5" to the command sudo apt-get update so I can press one key to write this into the terminal?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've created a brand new CentOS 5.4 (Final) 64bit machine AMI on Amazon EC2. This was based off an existing image. I was able to follow the wiki to add NX server. I am using WIN XP desktop for NX client.
I can connect to the EC2 machine and get the GNOME desktop fine. I see the usual CentOS desktop and poke around.
Q/Problem:
I expected to open the Terminal window and get a shell prompt to su into root user (I need to be root to install some software that needs GUI). I do not want to install this from my plain SSH connection to EC2 (hence the NX server etc.).
When I open the Terminal window, all I get is the NX>105 prompt. I need to get to a shell prompt so I can su into root. For life of me, I cannot get around this prompt (I looked at NX documentation too). Note that this is a prompt NOT on client but on the remote machine. I do not need this as I'm already authenticated and logged in to remote GNOME desktop.
Obviously the TERMINAL is running some NX start up script (I've no idea which one). If there is some other way to sudo into root?
I have tried updating my boxes to 4.9 Final issuing the command:

I just updated my CentOS 5 installation to 5.2 using yum update command.
But soon after restart, I can't use FTP anymore.
I tried SFTP but it always ended with "out of memory" message.
And last way, I tried to uninstall ftp and replace it with vsftp but still cannot solved.
Now I don't know how to upload my files to this server :(
I have a RPS (server with iscsi storage) that worked fine ! I yum updated it yesterday in order to upgrade it to 5.6.
After upgrading, the server can't reboot at all ! I can't find anything in logs
When i boot it via a kvm, the load screen says :
kernel panic - not syncinc : VFS : Unable to mounr root fs on unknown-block (2,0)
Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.34.6-xxxx-std-ipv6-32 #3
My kernel is on a netboot, it is 2.6.32, and i work on an ip failover.
The ipfailover continues to ping, but not the 'true' ip adresse
I assume it is a iscsi bug, but i don't know how to fix it. Or maybe it is something else.

I updated my CentOS 5 box recently. But after then my Apache can no longer work; every time I try to start apache, it says started OK but then dies immediately and no error message at all. When I tried 'apachectl restartI', it says apache not running. It has been running fine before the update. I've looked at /var/log/httpd.log but there is not any message about my problem.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a VPS server installed with centos 5.3. The server has directadmin. Probably that when directadmin was installed, the httpd server of choice was apache 2.2.13.
My problem is that i whant to install mod_dav_svn trough yum but without updating the latest version of apache form yum repository. If i exclude the httpd package when doing yum install mod_dav mod_dav_svn i get a dependency error witch say that i nedd httpd-mmn installed. So, my question is, how can i use yum to install mod_dav_svn without updating the httpd.
I'm experiencing some rather severe problems after updating my Centos 5.4 system (Virtual Xen guest). What happens is that when the system boots it complains about missing .so files which prevents about 50% of the services installed from running.
I'm suspecting that it has something to do with selinux for two reasons: 1. The first services to go down complains about the security context of some files, and 2. selinux was kinda the reason I decided to update in the first place as it was disabled when it shouldn't be (enabled in system-config-securitylevel, disabled when running sestatus).
The whole boot-sequence ends with alot of "INIT: Id 'X' respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes"-messages (including all runlevels) before it goes stale, and I can do nothing.
The server in question had undergone very little tinkering from my part, pretty much none at all, the only services installed after installation was apache, mysql and webmin.
Details:
CentOS 5.4 is installed on both the host and guest.
The guest runs on an lvm-partition.
I have two other vm's(also CentOS) running just fine, altough I'm a bit weary of updating them .
Attached are some screenshots of the boot-process.
I hope some one here can share some insight on this problem. It's making me pretty nervous seeing that our whole network is run by CentOS-installations (not that I'm certain that CentOS is the culprit).
I installed the Centos 5.5 with XEN and put 03 virtual machines (Centos 5.5 too). I did this correctly, but I have a problem. In the virtual machine, I need update the kernel. I used "yum update kernel" and this is downloaded correctly and the menu.lst file is updated too, but the kernel not ran. I ran "grub-install /dev/sda" or "grub-install /dev/xvda" and received a error return. I read the device.map file and i ran "grub-install /dev/sde" and received a error return too.
The errors:
[root@vm01 ~]# grub-install /dev/sda
/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device.
[root@vm01 ~]# grub-install /dev/sde
/dev/sda1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
[root@vm01 ~]# grub-install /dev/xvda
/dev/xvda: Not found or not a block device.
i've installed bind and dhcp. I'd like to update dns automatically by dhcp. For the reverse-lookup-zone everything works fine. But for the forward-lookup-zone there is still the message denied. But i cannot see a mistake.
