CentOS 5 :: Yum-updatesd After Upgrading To 5.3?
Apr 16, 2009
I recently upgraded from centos 5.2 to 5.3 ( using yum) two desktop computers with a similar configuration (different hardware but similar software configuration). In both cases I saw that yum-updatesd has stopped working. The daemon start at boot and remain silent for a while (an hour or more, without signaling the presence of any update package) then suddenly the process dies without any messages in the log. Using lsof i saw that the daemon open a lot of file and library, but it newer try to connect to any repository.Now i have just launched it in foreground and debug mode (yum-updatesd -f -d) and i'm waiting for some useful debug messages.. Has someone had a similar experience ? What else can i try ?

every time when /usr/bin/puplet try to talk to yum-updatesd via D-Bus, yum-updatesd will crash. After restart of yum-updatesd and call /usr/bin/puplet from the console I get this message;
Error getting update info: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) Introspect error: The name edu.duke.linux.yum was not provided by any .service files Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/puplet", line 191, in _refreshInfo if self.updatesObject is not None and AttributeError: DBusException instance has no attribute '_dbus_error_name'

I have been using Centos on a VPS for about a year and love the speed and simplicity. So, I would like to convert my home computer to Centos 5.5 Currently, the computer is running Ubuntu 10.4 x64. The drive has 3 partitions (a main partition that I would want to format and install the Centos Base), a swap partition which can be formatted and used as is and a third partition that boots to /home.
I have a few concerns: 1-If I edit the third partition in the Centos install as "boot to /home," Will everything (theoretically) work? The only applications that concern me are E-Mail (evolution) and OpenOffice. I know that Centos 5.5 uses Evolution 2.1.x and Ubuntu uses 2.2.x but just shouldn't be too much of a problem. (I can copy the mail folders from a backup to the .evolution directory.)
2-My /home partition uses ext4. Is using this on Centos 5.5 "looking for trouble"?

Is i possible to upgrade from a point release, like 5.3, to another point release, like 5.4, using yum ? Or, even if it is possible, is it better to just do an install of 5.4 and choose the upgrade option on top of my 5.3 installation ?

I have installed Centos 5.6 (32 bit) in a virtual machine and would like to know if it is possible to update it to a 64 bit installation (probably I will also need to move to another version of the vm player too) or if there is any kind of compatibility lib(s)

I'm running MySQL 5.0 on a production server and I require to upgrade mysql to version 5.5 to get a new collation support. What is the best procedure to follow? I cannot find MySQL 5.5 on the standard repositories. A yum install would be the safest, correct?

Yesterday I upgraded to CentOS 5.4 on x86_64. Now I can not login to GNOME or KDE. How do I go about diagnosing this? I am completely out of my depth.

I had a 5.3 CentOS server running beautifully. I upgraded to 5.4 for the improved power managment on my hardware, as well as improved network drivers. Unfotunately upgrading from 5.3 to 5.4 completely breaks vmware server 2.0.2.[URL]..
Unfotunately the downgrade of glibc is still resulting in unstable performance. Is it possible for me to downgrade to cent os 5.3 without re-installing the operating system? I'm really stuck here,

After upgrading to 5.6 I was trying things out and noticed for some reason the php on my server has stopped working. Anybody have a clue what's wrong ? I did read the release and it did mention the upgrade would then change my php.

I need to upgrade one of our systems from its current distribution, Fedora Core 7, to the most recent version distribution, release 5.4, of the CentOS operating system. Can I do an in-place upgrade of the operating system without any adverse side-effects? Are there any issues that I should be concerned with before proceeding?

When using YUM UPDATE from the prompt more than 230 items are scheduled for update however when the download process has completed I receive errors regarding Perl dependences such as:
file /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/List/Util.pm from install of perl-5.8.8-27.el5.x86_64 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.8-18.el5_3.1.i386
I am unsure how to overcome this. It occurs on two different servers.

I issued "yum update" and the process ended with a transaction check error(see below).

I installed Oracle Database on this server few months ago. I see in /etc/yum.repos.d directory a public-yum-el5.repo file with entries pointing to Oracle which must have come from that installation. Now how do I proceed from here?

Due to all the "fun" I had upgrading spamassassin from 3.2.5 to 3.3.1 on C55 I thought I would detail it here so as to possibly save others from all the frustration I have endured. There are probably a zillion different ways to make this work but this is how I did it and it seems to work well.
1) Acquire spamassassin rpm.
I downloaded several different versions from various sites and had problems with all of them so I ended up grabbing the SRPM from Fedora 13 spamassassin-3.3.1-2.fc13.src.rpm. This of course will not load onto C55 as rpmbuild has changed so I loaded it onto a FC13 box and then TARed the SPEC & SOURCES directories, copied them onto a C55 and built SRPM from there.
2) Install on C55
The new spamassassin requires several updated packages to make it happy.
a) perl-Mail-DKIM greater than 0.31. I cheated and used this one from FC8 perl-Mail-DKIM-0.32-3.fc8.noarch.rpm
b) perl-socket6 that is 2.0 or later. I got this one from DAG perl-Socket6-0.20-1.rf.x86_64.rpm
c) perl-NetAddr-IP that is 4.0 or later. Again DAG saved the day perl-NetAddr-IP-4.007-1.rf.x86_64.rpm
d) the spamassassin of course :)
Actually I built them from the SRPMs as I needed both the 32 and 64 bit packages for various servers.
3) Run sa-update --D to get the latest rules then restart the spamassassin service. For those who do not have access to a FC13 box you can get a copy of the SRPM I made here [URL].

I installed PHP 5.3 from remi repository and now some PHP pages end up as blank pages. Joomla pages load with no problem but iDevAffiliate pages end up as blank pages. Could it be something in the php.ini file? I have no idea where to look. Any ideas?
P.S.: I run CentOS 5.5 and MySQL 5.1

I find my self abit stuck upgrading OpenSSL to the latest version. The situation is that i've been running LAMP servers just fine by installing the web services from the repositories AND the web services from source. However im now in the process of making a PCI-DSS compliant server LAMP server. I've just had the vulnerability scan report back and its failed due to the OpenSSL having vulnerabilities and it tells me I must upgraded to version higher 1.0.0d.
I've basically spent hours and hours trying to get this working along with research but I dont seem to be having much luck with this one
Im using a fresh install of CentOS and trying to create a RPM using the source code and rpmbuild, I read this was the best way I read, and this is my first time using rpmbuild.
Code:
yum -y install rpm-build make gcc gcc-c++ perl mlocate
cd /usr/src/
wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz
updatedb
tar -zxf openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz openssl.spec
[Code].....

I have 2.6.18-164.2.1.e15 running on Hyper-v. I did yum update and noticed that kernel is upgraded to 2.6.18-164.9.1.e15. If I try to boot into the new kernel it hangs with message first "switchroot mount failed" and then "kernel panic". This is probably related to Hyper-v drivers installed in the old kernel. First question: Do you think this is correct? Is it possible to somehow disable Hyper-v drivers so I can boot into the new kernel and then reinstall drivers? There is nothing in Microsoft documentation about uninstalling Linux Integration Components.

I have a CentOS 5 based Linux system with a 3Ware 9550SU RAID card and four 500GB drives set up in a RAID5 array (3 in the array and 1 hot spare).
I want to 'replace' these drives with four 2TB drives without data loss. My server case has a total of 8 drive bays all hot-swap and all attached to the RAID card, this means I have four empty drive bays on the RAID card.
One thought is to put the four new 2TB drives in the empty drive bays, configure them in a new RAID5 array. Then the question is now to I "mirror" the original RAID5 array over to the new one?
This is just a thought though, I am not sure it will work. In short my question to this forum is how do I accomplish this upgrade?.

I am trying to create a workflow for upgrading various systems using kickstart. I was hoping folks can point me in the right direction.I have a system which already has Centos installed on it. However it is a stripped down version of Centos using a custom kickstart installer. Now I would like to upgrade these systems, using an updated kickstart file spec. I would like to be able to copy over required files into a partition on the system, make a change in the grub.conf, reboot the system and expect the system to use the kickstart file and the iso file located on a partition on the system to self upgrade the entire system.The partition which holds the iso on these systems may be raided, or it may be an LVM partition.
How do I specify in the kickstart file that the location of the iso is on an LVM partition? Is this even supported? I have tried specifiying the disk like so:
< -- isolinux/ks/harddrive.cfg -- >
upgrade
text
harddrive --partition=mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02 --dir=/isolinux
[code]...
But the installer did not seem to like it. Instead of the iso, can I put the entire tree instead? Would that work?

I'm currently upgrading my clients' CentOS 5 installation to use httpd-2.2.14 as we need it for the server to past some of the Hardware checks used in the PCI [Payment Card Industry] security test. I was basically wondering if anyone had the standard CentOS 'configure options' for building httpd/Apache so I could copy them to ensure it is a straight replacement for my existing 2.2.3?

I am having a problem installing SR drivers for my IBM x3550 and x3550 M2 servers that have CentOS 5.x
The files I am using are:
ibm_dd_mptsas_4.22.80.04_rhel5_32-64.tgz
ibm_dd_aacraid_1.1.5.24702_rhel5_32-64.tgz
It seems it is asking for kernel-xen-devel
1. Am I using the correct files?
2. Is it safe to install kernel-xen-devel?

Problems with xen 3.1.2 creating and installing domU CentOS 5.5 I am trying to do a virt-install --prompt --paravirt, and the install error out while trying to download install RPMs. I have googled for xen centos virt-install and various permutations. I have found similar howtos for 5.4 and 5.3, but they resulted in the same outcome. I did find several posts with similar issues, but no solution was posted.[URL]..
