OpenSUSE Install :: All Config Files Need .conf" Messages After Upgrade To 11.2

Nov 29, 2009

I just upgraded an 11.1 install to 11.2. The upgraded system appears fully functional but I get many "all config files need .conf" warning messages during boot. See below. I also did a clean install on another system to compare and the clean install does not exhibit the same behavior so the warnings are evidently related to it being an upgrade. The system's working but I would like to understand why this is happening and clean it up. This system provides some key services to my networks and I have spent a lot of time getting this and the systems it interacts with "just right" under 11.1 and I am not particularly interested in starting over except as a last resort.

OpenSUSE Install :: .conf Files Missing After Update Timed Out?

Mar 17, 2010

I was running an update to updgrade firefox to the latest version. the update timed out and now when i boot the laptop i get the command line login. Typing startx brings a screen with a black cross in the middle and a black and white background.

In the boot process a lot of errors are coming up saying "conf files need .conf". Also i have noticed an error that says the xorg.conf file is not where it should be. I know this is responsible for graphical boots so could be my problem. However yast and network services are also not working in the command line so i am unable to update to fix this. I installed from a live CD so im unsure how to use this to repair my system?

OpenSUSE Install :: KDM Black Screen - Need To Clear All Config Files

Apr 19, 2011

No more than 15 hours after a breezy installation and setup I somehow managed to stop the desktop manager from displaying. Once you boot into Suse, the loading bar goes across, a white flash, then a blank screen forever. I figured it was KDM once I booted into x11safemode and tried to boot the desktop manager, it recreated the situation.

I've tried un-installing and installing KDM again, however it seems to reuse the same config file. I'm thinking about deleting the config file mentioned, but I'm not sure what will happen when I install the desktop manager, if there's any setting up to get it to work with my setup, or even if that will fix the situation.

Slackware :: What About Config Files During Upgrade

Nov 13, 2010

During upgrade the system ask me what to do about config files. K to keep old ones then other options to change config files to the new system and backup old one with *.old extension and 2 other options I don't remember. What do you think is the best choice if I have changed my xorg.conf, my layout and my fonts.

CentOS 5 Server :: Loading Multiple Virtual Host Conf Files From Httpd.conf?

Jun 1, 2009

I've been scanning the apache2 docs for the past few days and have not come up with an answer my following issue:

In my httpd.conf file, at the very end, I have the line

Include conf/vhosts/vhost_*.conf

However, when I run apache checkconfig or try to start apache, it gives me the error:

httpd: Syntax error on line 993 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/vhost_1.conf: Permission denied

It appears as if the Include line is correct - in terms of it grabbing the first virtual host conf file. However, I'm confused on the permissions. the /etc/httpd folder is owned by root:root, as are the subfolders. As a test, I chown'd the conf/vhost folder combination and all the vhost files to apache:apache to see if that made a difference, and it appeared to make no difference at all. The log files don't contain anything (assumed because apache isn't starting). If I place the contents of the vhosts in a singular vhosts.conf it works - with the permissions set to root:root. I'd like to avoid having to use one vhosts conf for the configuration I'm trying to achieve - as it would make my life a lot easier.

OpenSUSE Install :: Precedence Of Xorg.conf Over Xorg.conf.d?

Jan 26, 2011

I've read the how-tos (thank you oldcpu!) and wikis about how xorg.conf take precedence over the section configuration files in etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, if it exist. I also understand that the xorg.conf can be partial. If it is missing some sections, these will be taken from the corresponding xorg.conf.d section config file. Currently I'm using a xorg.conf generated by nvidia-settings in one of my home machines, due to a dual-monitor setup. After generating xorg.conf, the device sections are:

in xorg.conf:

Code:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"

[code]....

My question is if the Option "UseCompositeWrapper" "True" will be used or not. In other words, if a section exist in xorg.conf then it's correspondent in xorg.conf.d/ will be completely ignored *or* only the lines in xorg.conf.d/ that already exist in xorg.conf will be ignored?

Ubuntu Servers :: Config - Change / Add From The Default OpenSSH Config Files To Get Tunnelling To Work?

Jul 10, 2011

I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.04 with OpenSSH, trying to create an ssh tunnel (for web traffic) to it from my (also Ubuntu) laptop. This is the command I'm using to create the tunnel:

Code: ssh -ND localhost:8080 george@192.168.1.20 I had it all working on a virtual machine.. which was deleted What settings/lines do I need to change/add from the default OpenSSH config files to get tunnelling to work? I've Googled and AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes, as is X11Forwarding.. but it still doesn't work. Chrome can connect to the server, but says the connection was closed before any data was sent.

OpenSUSE Network :: Config Files For Multiple IP's On VLANs?

Jun 10, 2011

How can you do it with individual ifcfg-* files?

I've tried adding them like this:

Filename: ifcfg-vlan1:0
BOOTPROTO='static'
ETHERDEVICE='vlan1'
STARTMODE='manual'
USERCONTROL='no'
IPADDR='192.168.1.2/24'

but it fails on ifup, thinking it might be the filename (the vlan tagging being picked up from the name) I tried renaming it but still no go.

I can add IP's via ifconfig, eg ifconfig vlan1:0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

and I'm pretty sure I could add multiples to the ifcfg-vlan1 file but how do I add them from individual config files?

Ubuntu :: System Settings / Config Files Copied Over To New Install?

Jul 5, 2010

I'm interested to hear what config/settings files - or whole folders - you've managed to simply copy over from your previous installation and have working in the new. This can be either for specific programs or for parts of the system, but I suppose most of what people would find useful is getting some of their programs back to how they had them. These can be individual files or whole folders, but if there is a settings folder for a program but only one of the files is actually worth copying, just mention the one file and what it does. Also interested in hearing from KDE and Xfce users, for the benefit of those of us who have multiple desktop environments in the same system. (Besides, even those with only Gnome will use some of the great KDE apps like Amarok and K3b).

Here are my contributions:
(~/ denotes your home folder; any subfolders starting with a period [.] are hidden files or folders)
~/.cache/rhythmbox/covers (the folder containing all your album cover art displayed in Rhythmbox)
~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts (any scripts you added to Nautilus will be in this folder)
~/.lyrics (the folder containing all your song lyrics displayed in Rhythmbox)
~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml (Rhythmbox's database file; if you were forced to edit this because of some incorrectly displayed tags, don't forget to copy it over).
~/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox/plugins/ (Rhythmbox's plugins folder; plugins should be accessible when you restart Rythmbox).
~/.bash_aliases (Terminal command aliases you may have created will be in this file).
~/.gconf/apps/nautilus/preferences/%gconf.xml (Nautilus folder preferences file)
~/.mozilla/firefox (Folder for Firefox settings, cache, bookmarks, etc. If there are 2 or more subfolders with names like 2tb4r91t.default just copy over the latest one, and make sure profiles.ini points to it)
~/.thunderbird (Mozilla Thunderbird folder with all accounts, emails, settings, etc)

Ubuntu :: Alter Config Files After Install From Custom Live Cd?

Apr 24, 2011

I'm building my own ubuntu variant for low resource systems at the moment. It's based from the ubuntu 10.10 minimal install (12mb iso). It uses openbox as the window manager and SLiM as the login/display manager.

What I would like two know is how to have a few config files that are on the live cd to be altered for the installed system. Specifically, SLiM autologin, but I'll probably find other things to change aswell. Basically a sort of "first boot script".

OpenSUSE Network :: Reconfiguring / Recompiling The Sendmail Conf Files But Would Rather Not If It's Not Required + Milter?

Mar 22, 2011

I have gone through a good number of distros all the way back to Slackware but I'm struggling to get my brain moving in the right direction again. I am working to enable sendmail and, from what I've read, it appears that newer version of sendmail are installed with milter but I can't seem to locate this. I am running v11.4 so I'm wondering if this is just not the case? I don't have a problem reconfiguring/recompiling the sendmail conf files but would rather not if it's not required. For the record my ultimate goal is to have the spamassassin and clamav milter's installed and using the home server as our primary email.

Debian :: An Apt-get Install Lottanzb Would Change All Libraries, Config Files Etcetera?

May 14, 2010

not trolling for a flame war but I simply added the testing repository earlier and did an apt install of just lottanzb and it ended up taking ages and installed lots of new files and removed things like Epiphany etcetera, and that one command had me having to reinstall as it messed everything up so it wouldn`t work at all even the shell was messing up.I have never had Windows break totally from an install, but first try with Linux and it did so could someone explain why an apt-get install lottanzb would change all my libraries, config files etcetera with the testing version over Lenny stable?

Ubuntu :: Can't Open/parse The Config File /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf?

Mar 11, 2010

I have installed ClamAV 0.95.3 into Ubuntu 9.10 (i386) fully patched
I am behind an authenticating proxy, so I've entered these details into freshclam.conf:
HTTPProxyServer myproxy.com
HTTPProxyPort 1234
HTTPProxyUsername myusername
HTTPProxyPassword mypass
code....

So I changed the perms to 0700 (user is clamav).
Now I get:
$ sudo freshclam
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf

I checked DNS resolution with this (which I found in a thread somewhere):
# host database.clamav.net
database.clamav.net is an alias for db.local.clamav.net.
db.local.clamav.net is an alias for db.other.clamav.net.
db.other.clamav.net has address 193.1.193.64
db.other.clamav.net has address 130.59.10.36
- I presume the installation can find the update site?

OpenSUSE Install :: Boot Log Messages - How To Access In 11.4

Jul 8, 2011

My memory could be failing but I thought there was a tool, possibly in Yast, to access the boot logs in earlier versions. Can't find it now though. Is there such a tool other than console?I should clarify in case I am using the wrong terminology that I seek the log which scrolls up the screen during the booting process. Reason is that I see several errors and warnings there and wish to investigate further.

Fedora Hardware :: System-config-display Creates Incorrect Xorg.conf?

Mar 3, 2010

Now that I have system-config-display installed I tried to create a new xorg.conf so I can have 3D acceleration, etc using the correct driver. But the xorg.conf file generated does not work. It locks up the laptop (Toshiba Satellite A45-S250). I don't understand why this happens because the Fedora 12 Live CD (for i686) works find on boot.

I tried looking for the xorg.conf file after booting the live CD but it doesn't exist. I don't understand what is happening here. Also, when I used an older version of Fedora (8 I think) the X driver was i810 which worked fine. It gave me all the 3D acceleration, etc. When I installed F11 it gave me a dumbed down install using the VESA driver. What happened to the i810 driver? Why does the intel driver not work? Why does the Live CD work great but an installed system not?

Necessary info: Toshiba Satellite A45-S25 Fedora 12 (preupgraded from F11)

OpenSUSE Install :: Error Messages For All Options In Yast2

Mar 13, 2011

Yesterday, after I reinstall suse linux enterprise 11 in my note book. I got some error messages. They are :
From Suse linux installing processedacroread-9.3.2-0.1.1.i586.rpm
yast2-pkg-bindings-2.17.45-0.2.10.i586.rpm
After installed suse linux.
error messages for all options in yast2.

The story is when I started installing suse linux, I checked first the live cd and I got message that live cd is okay. But, when the installation process was running, I got 2 messages error. But, the messages were informing me to verified from software management module.

So, my questions are :What are acroread-9.3.2-0.1.1.i586.rpm and yast2-pkg-bindings-2.17.45-0.2.10.i586.rpm and what are they fungtions? If my guess is not wrong, acroread means acrobat reader. Is it true? Where is others place I can download them (no.1,2,3) beside the live cd? Or, if the easyest way is live cd. As yast2 got error, is there an other way I can installed them (no.1,2,3)?

OpenSUSE Install :: Autologin - Syslog - Kernel Messages - Console

May 9, 2010

What i'm trying to accomplish seems rather silly but is needed for my little project here.

I'm using OpenSuSE 11.2 as a media center PC and need it to login automatically(console not X). That one i accomplished without problems.

However, after login i can see all the info about the services that were started and that needs to "go away".

One could do a "clear" in the .bash_rc and or .bash_profile but it will still show the login prompt which i don't want to see either (i don't even want to see the blinking cursor as well).

Question: How do i accomplish that so that the login console shows only the "splash screen" without any output of the kernel,rc.status nor the "issue-file"... just a plain blank screen ?
