General :: RHEL3 - System May Not Be Updated Until It Is Associated
Dec 29, 2010
I have a RHEL 3 server that I just tried to install updates on, but up2date kicked back the following message and no updates. Is redhat not offering updates for version 3 anymore?
"This system may not be updated until it is associated with a channel".
I have an old RHEL3 machine that we didn't update before it went end of whatever redhat calls it, and now when I run an up2date -l, it says "This system may not be updated until it is associated with a channel." Is there any way to give it a channel so I can get whatever updates we missed before they turned it off?
I have updated Ubuntu all the way to 10.04, but the desktop environment still keeps its old looks. For example, the GNOME panel has the old, light grey colour rather than the new, dark grey. The new greyscale icons for battery and wireless aren't in place either.
What shall I do to bring it up to date either immediately or when 10.10 comes out?
Booting into runlevel 3 and then issuing the $init 5, command leaves me this."binary handler for windows applications already registered" and the system hangs there.I yum removed wine, thinking that might be the issue, but that solved nothing.
I get the "Could not download all repository indexes" error whenever I check for updates in update manager. In the error window it says this: "Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found. Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. I'm not sure what this repository is for, so I can remove it, but I just want to make sure this is not the "main" repository that I get updates from. Will I still keep getting my system updates if I remove it?
We have three production websites running on RHEL 3 AS running tomcat 5. After a reboot last night Tomcat will not start and has the following in the catalina.out log:
Mar 20, 2011 4:09:31 PM org.apache.commons.digester.Digester startElement SEVERE: Begin event threw error java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/naming/resources/ProxyDirContext at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:2389) at java.lang.Class.getConstructor0(Class.java:2699) at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Class.java:326) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:308) .....
I have spoken with our Java Developers and they seem to think it is something up between httpd and tomcat at an OS level. Since Tomcat is not starting and giving an error that it is all ready running, I think you have a stale lock file. Look for the file /var/run/tomcat5.pid and cat or less it to see what the PID number is. If it matches the error, then delete the file and try to start Tomcat again. It should start this time.
Most common problem with Tomcat5. Try following : 1) Search PID in /tmp, if found delete it or else stop your tomcat. 2) Undeploy your application 3) Check out this link [URL] to know what causing tomcat to generate this error.
If none of them work then check your application configuration settings. [URL]. When I do start tomcat it appears to start:
[root@RPSI-2 san00]# service tomcat5 start Starting tomcat5: Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/share/tomcat5 Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/share/tomcat5 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/share/tomcat5/temp Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.6.0 [root@RPSI-2 san00]#
But then I try to find if it is running via ps -ef | grep tomcat5, I only receive my query. I perform the same query on Java and it also only returns my query.
I just used the on-line update to upgrade from 11.3 to 11.4. Now when I click the computer button in lower left, there are no entries under system, ie. control center, yast, install, lock, logout, shutdown. How do I get those back?
Our Web Engineers use rdist/rsh from a RHEL3.8 server to push out their monitoring scripts to various Linux web servers. Their rsh/rdist process using a distfile always seems to hang after completion when the target server is a SLES9 server - the session always seem to complete/end successfully if the rdist target server is a RHEL server.An strace of the RSH PID on both sides shows the process on the RHEL 3.8source server as read(8, while on the target SLES server the PID shows as read(0,A netstat -a|grep CLOSE_WAIT does not show any tcp session relating
I have recently installed Fedora 10 in my x86_64 system and fully updated. The updation size was nearly 650MB. My question is can I make a an updated installer DVD from my existing fedora system?
I have updated to the new kernel that was available from 11.2 and now I cant use my system.
It boots up into kde 4.3.5 and then right when its just finishing it freezes everytime and I hear that last tone of the bootup sound ring continually until I force a shutdown. Anyone else have this issue with the update?
My desktop (the system AIDE runs on) is reguarly updated, and the file output can become enormous, making it hard, if not impossible, to track down out of place files. I have recently thought of uninstalling it since I can't tell what is out of place and what isn't, but before I do that I wanted to ask everyones opinion regarding what would be the best way to handle such a program on a desktop that has some core files changed reguarly. This sytem is running Gentoo, so updates affect a number of directories.
I am unable to get a Brother MFC-5460CN printer to print on a fully updated F12 system. Everything looks normal in Administration | Printing. All fields match the format shown on the Brother site. The printer status is updating correctly so there is communication to the printer. But jobs just queue and eventually show as printed but nothing is actually printed. There are no other printers. Here is the output in /var/log/messages from plugging in the printer and trying to print a document:
Code: Apr 4 21:23:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4 Apr 4 21:23:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=04f9, idProduct=01b7 Apr 4 21:23:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=3 Apr 4 21:23:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: SerialNumber: BROJ6F904373 Apr 4 21:23:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice .....
I followed the instructions on the Brother Linux drivers page and all the rpms loaded without error. But the log is showing some type of key problem.
I am using the default CVS available in Fedora 9. I initiated the CVS server by cvs -d /usr/local/cvsproj init To check-in and check-out the following exports commands are used export CVS_RSH=ssh export CVSROOT=:ext:swathi@SERVER:/usr/local/cvsproj
I shall explain problem by taking an example. A project was checked in long before (for example the checkin date is 25 Feb 2010). And today (i.e. 21 June 2011) I checked out the project from the repository. After checkout, the date of the project in the repository is changed from 25 Feb 2010 to 21 June 2011. This date is set to all the subfolders in that project. But the files in the project retains the checking date i.e. 25 Feb 2010. Why the check-in dates are getting updated/changed to the system time after doing check-out.
My Ibuntu 10.4 system can't be updated because of error message:"Segmentation faulty tree" coming from apt-get check. It reads 50% of then stops. It shows reading the package lists, the Done.

Let:Source directory is /x/y/z/src: Destination is /x/y/z/dst, Q: What is the option in zip command, which zip all updated or new picture files (*.jpg) from the source path to the destination + don't keep the original files -zipping while moving- ?
We copied the directories/files from one filesys1 to filesys2 and since that initial copy have further added more directories/files to filesys2 from another source. How can we compare filesys1 to filesys2 to make sure all files/directories were copied successfully to filesys2? I would like a way to check filesys1 against filesys2 and only show/output when something is missing from filesys2 that exists in filesys1 and not report the additional/extra directroies/files that have been copied to filesys2.
Im such an idiot. I have no idea of how to use terminal on this computer. I tried to download the updated version of skype and now it wont work. Nothing happens and it says /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.9 not found(required by skype)

I'm looking for a way to have the access log for my nginx install scroll up the terminal as lines are added to the log. I think I need a command like cat access.log | diff but I'm not sure exactly what it should be.
I have a folder hierarchy with many sub-folder levels under a set of parent folders. Based on the application design and business use, files are written to different locations on a daily basis. I want to find out the last updated file in the folder structure and its location at any given time. How can I do that?
I have just updated my Ubuntu linux to Ubuntu 10.4, not my grub menu isnt letting me boot to Windows Partition.The problem seems to be with grubs new update from using an editable menu.lst file to using a non editable grub.cfg file. Everywhere I look it states "DO NOT EDIT THE GRUB.CGF FILE". I am at a loss as what to do. I figured that the new configuration has screwed up the Windows Boot File. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this. I am not sure if it is a windows issue or an issue with the Grub boot menu.
I was assigned to do all the RHEL5 updates. All installed fine including the new kernel except for the updated libX11 and python packages. Does anyone have any suggestions relating to a fix for this?
