Server :: Error Messages For System And Hardware Failures?

Aug 4, 2010

I need to scrape logfiles and do some pattern matching for a series of hardware and system faults;

For example:
Network interface down / up
IO errors
Out of Inodes
Out of Diskspace
Memory Errors
Power Failure

When the appropriate Strings appear in the log (assuming /var/logs/messages)Then a trap will be sent. (Customer specific SNMP solution) So what I need (I think) is a list of the strings I need to match.Has anybody any idea where I can find a list of strings which will definitely appear in the log - RHEL5 ?

General :: Centralized Location For Operating System Error Messages?

Jul 20, 2010

the thing that tends to draw out their frustrations the most are the error messages.

Things like "x.x not found, such and such can't continue" or "Unable to locate x.x", etc.

Well, of those people as I described above, a lot of them are fiercely independent people and would fix their own problems had they any idea what they were.

So, I had a thought that adding google or LQ.o search terms to the error messages, along with a link to the search feature, would be somewhat beneficial.

Perhaps with messages regarding missing files, then provide a link and message "To correct this issue, copy filename and submit it here -> url and download the package"

So I was wondering where I could find lots and lots of error message code.

Debian Hardware :: Both Radeon Drivers Cause System Failures

Mar 14, 2016

i just migrated from fedora to debian, and i already love this system. it only seems that i am facing a serious problem with this graphic card.running on debian 8.3.booting my system, i do get this message:

[8.167619] [drm:radeon_pci_probe] *ERROR* radeon kernel modesettingfor r600 or later requires firmware-linux-nonfree.

after that the system seems to run normally except of the fact that it doesn't look well and i cannot set the appropriate resolution for my monitor.

lspci -nn | grep VGA output:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Barts PRO [Radeon HD 6850] [1002:6739]

already tried both, the open source and the proprietary drivers, and both cause serious problems.

i tried to install the proprietary driver following these instructions: URL...

after restarting the system i get a black screen with a blinking cursor at the top left corner, and that's it.

then tried to install the open source driver following these instructions:URL...

but after restarting the system my monitor goes into some sort of a "sleep monitor mode", and that's it.in both cases i wasn't able to boot the system through the recovery mode, so i didn't know what else to do and re-installed the whole system each and every time i tried a driver.let's say i have installed the system like 5 times in the past 12 hours.

Server :: MDADM RAID6 Active Despite 3 Drive Failures

Jul 26, 2011

I am currently having problems with my RAID partition. First two disks were having trouble (sde, sdf). Through smartctl I noticed there were some bad blocks, so first I set them to fail, and readded them so that the RAID array will overwrite these. Since that didn't work, I went ahead and replaced the disks. The recovery process was slow and I left things running overnight. This morning I find out that another disk (sdb) has failed. Strangely enough the array has not become inactive.

md3 : active raid6 sdf1[15](S) sde1[16](S) sdak1[10] sdj1[8] sdk1[9] sdb1[17](F) sdan1[13] sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdg1[5] sdi1[7] sdal1[11] sdam1[12] sdao1[14] sdh1[6]
25395655168 blocks level 6, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [15/12] [_UU__UUUUUUUUUU]

Does anyone have any recommendations as the steps to take ahead with regards to recovery/fixing the problem? The disk is basically full so I haven't written anything to disk in the interim of this problem.

Server :: Pure-ftp / Openssh Failures - Transfer Files

Apr 22, 2010

I need by searching this site so I haven't had a need to sign up since I can't really help anyone as of yet. With that said here is my problem: I'm running a VPS with CentOS RHEL 5 host-in-a-box, I just did a rebuild of the server and after a day or two pure-ftpd and sshd unexpectedly close out any incoming connections. I am the only one that uses ssh and ftp so I'm not sure what the problem could be. I checked the logs and there is nothing to do with not being able to bind on the address.

I tried connecting through ssh in verbose mode and it connects to the server just fine, but drops the connection before it asks me for my key pass phrase. If I enable password access it will drop before it asks me for it's password. I've tried restarting sshd and ftpd. I've tried rebooting the machine. I've tried google, but this problem seems to need a little more specific trouble shooting. I can get in through console access, but that doesn't help me much when I need to transfer files.

CentOS 5 Server :: SASL Bind Failures - Invalid Credentials

Dec 14, 2009

I am setting up a cluster of servers which use Centos Directory Server for control of logins, etc and kerberos for authentication. The basic setup is working fine, I have been able to manually create accounts using the directory console and these accounts seem to work. Now what I want to do is automate the process of creating new accounts. I am writing a perl script which can be run by one of the server administrators, they supply a small number of arguments and it should create a new user in the directory server, and also create a principal in the kerberos.

I want them to be able to do this using their logged-in kerberos credentials, i.e., without having to enter and re-enter their passwords. My first attempt was to use perl modules Net::LDAP and Authen::SASL. I could not get this working so fell back to using ldap command line tools, but even these I cannot seem to get working! When using mozldap tools, as specified in the admin manual, I get the following:

$ /usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapmodify -h ldaphost.mycompany.com -D uid=eharmic,ou=mydept,dc=mycompany -o mech=GSSAPI -o authid=eharmic < ../ldapmod.txt
Bind Error: Invalid credentials
Bind Error: additional info: SASL(-14): authorization failure:

Using openldap tools I strike exactly the same problem:
$ ldapmodify -Y GSSAPI -H LDAP://ldaphost.mycompany.com -D uid=eharmic,ou=mydept,dc=mycompany -U eharmic < ../ldapmod.txt
SASL/GSSAPI authentication started
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49)
additional info: SASL(-14): authorization failure:

I believe I have set up the mapping correctly:
dn: cn=MyMapping,cn=mapping,cn=sasl,cn=config
objectClass: top
objectClass: nsSaslMapping
cn: MyMapping
nsSaslMapRegexString: ^(.+)@MYCOMPANY.COM
nsSaslMapBaseDNTemplate: ou=mydept,dc=mycompany
nsSaslMapFilterTemplate: (uid=1)

It must be getting reasonably far because after doing the above I can see the LDAP service ticket in my "klist" output.

Debian :: Can't Receive System Messages

Mar 2, 2010

I have a small LAN. I am in the process of installing a Debian Lenny/Squeeze system into the LAN. I want to send and receive system messages using rwalld and wall.I can send a system message from my Debian system to another box using rwall. I can send a local message within the Debian box using wall in a console.I cannot send a local message using wall Konsole in KDE 3.5.x. The KDE Write daemon fails to provide any pop-up window./usr/bin/wall is installed from the bsdutils package and is set to -rwxr-sr-x.

The ktalkd package is installed. The KDE control center shows a configuration option in Internet & Network settings called Local Network Chat.When not in X, mesg is set to y at the console. After starting KDE and I open Konsole, mesg is always set to n. I don't know how this setting toggles. Further, setting mesg to y in Konsole has no effect on getting wall to work.mesg is set to y when I run xterm in KDE. Then wall works within that terminal window. However, the KDE Write daemon does not see the message in xterm.When I send a message from another system to the Debian system using rwall, xterm receives the message but not Konsole or the KDE Write daemon.

When I send a wall message from Konsole, xterm receives the message but not Konsole or the KDE Write daemon.I changed TTYPERM in login.defs to 0620 to no avail.I do not have this problem on the non-Debian systems.

Fedora :: Remove Boot Messages In System Tray?

I would like to remove this icon, it's very annoying. I can right click it and click quit but I don't like doing this every time I log in.

Is there an easy way to stop it from starting up (I couldn't find it in Startup Applications)?

General :: Linpus 2.6.32 / Error Messages Saying Something Such As Cannot Run Var?

Nov 5, 2010

Just bought a brand new Acer Aspire 5745G, straight away I wanted to install Ubuntu 10.10, I stuck in the cd and rebooted the new laptop that currently only seemed to have Linpus Linux, I then got masses of error messages saying something such as cannot run var/ etc etc and then

:cannot touch 'var/lock/subsys/local': input/output error

and then...

EXT2-fs error (device sda1) : ext2_lookup: deleted inode referenced (lots of numbers here)

It does this for many, many lines then sites there for ages doing nothing and wont allow me to type any commands ( I dont know any command really apart from 'reboot') and then finally after 5 mins or so shows the command prompt [root@localhost /]# but I cant do anything from here.

I've done some searches and found this thread:

url

but startx and system-cofig-display dont work and just says bad commands.

Ive also tried changing the settings so it always reboots from dvd, same problem, made a USB ubuntu start up, forced booting from usb, same again.

Server :: Sendmail Relay Messages To Ext. SMTP Server?

Jan 31, 2010

I've got a server set up with Debian. The problem is that my ISP doesn't allow usage of port 25 (as I understand a lot of ISP's don't).I have PHP scripts hat use the mail() function to send e-mails through the Sendmail application.So, my question is: How can I relay messages sent to sendmail to an external SMTP server (like Google Mail, for example)? Would this be easier to do in the PHP configuration, or on the Sendmail side of things?I've used PEAR extensions in PHP to achieve this before, but scripts downloaded from the Internet generally just use the basic mail() function, and it would be a real pain to modify them all.

Ubuntu :: Error Messages At Boot-time?

Jul 1, 2010

I just upgraded to 10.04 through the Update Manager. During the updated however I got an error telling me that it was unable to install something. Sorry, I can't remember what it was; it didn't stop the updated so I assumed it wasn't that important. Anyways, I don't know if this is because of that error, but during the boot process and when shutting the computer I get console messages. When I boot it tells me that "mounting none on /dev failed No such device" and when I shut down I get these messages.I see this was asked before and that it isn't a big issue, but I'd still like to solve it. The problem is that I'm pretty new to Ubuntu and Linux in general I don't know how to follow the very general instructions given in that thread.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 - Getting Firefox / Thunderbird Error Messages

Nov 10, 2010

Problem-cannot mount 2 other samba computers on my ubuntu 10.04 via 'sudo mountall'. Additionally I now get Firefox/Thunderbird error messages as listed below. Had no problems with ubuntu UNTIL I attempted install of VirtualBox running WinXP client in my Ubuntu host. VirtualBox seemed to install ok but upon startup of WinXP client all I got was a black screen. To close it I had to do "Power Off" which VBox manual says is like a hard power off and is to be avoided. So I guess it's like I crashed XP within Ubuntu.

Now - ubuntu boots ok except will not auto mount other samba connected computers. Manually running 'sudo mountall' in terminal gives --
p { margin-bottom: 0.02in; page-break-before: auto; }p.cjk { font-size: 10pt; } swapon: /dev/disk/by-uuid/24c4c591-47ec-44f1-ac52-c0e2f5850c18: swapon failed: Device or resource busy
mountall: swapon /dev/disk/by-uuid/24c4c591-47ec-44f1-ac52-c0e2f5850c18 [2235] terminated with status 255
mountall: Problem activating swap: /dev/disk/by-uuid/24c4c591-47ec-44f1-ac52-c0e2f5850c18
retrying with upper case share name
mount error(6): No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs( manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
mountall: mount /media/samba_share [2239] terminated with status 32

Additionally I now get these warning messages when Firefox and Thunderbird start. (They do start and seem to work fine.)--
Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See [URL] for information. (Details - 1: Server ping error: IDLmg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0)
p { margin-bottom: 0.02in; page-break-before: auto; }p.cjk { font-size: 10pt; } What I've tried-

1) fstab UUID matches error UUID above and matches UUID from blkid command:
fstab =#Entry for /dev/sdc2 :
UUID=24c4c591-47ec-44f1-ac52-c0e2f5850c18 none swap sw 0 0
p { margin-bottom: 0.02in; page-break-before: auto; }p.cjk { font-size: 10pt; }
blkid = /dev/sdc2: UUID="24c4c591-47ec-44f1-ac52-c0e2f5850c18" TYPE="swap"

2) Reinstalled mountall from synaptic pkg manager; did not try to remove mountall and reinstall. To remove, removes LOTS of other packages from system - not brave enough to do that (yet).

3) Ran fsck on swap partition as below. Swap not found. (that confuses me.)p { margin-bottom: 0.02in; page-break-before: auto; }p.cjk { font-size: 10pt; } john@johndesk:~$ fsck /dev/sdc2
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
fsck: fsck.swap: not found
fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.swap for /dev/sdc2
p { margin-bottom: 0.02in; page-break-before: auto; }p.cjk { font-size: 10pt; } 4) deleted all the files in ~/.dbus/session-bus. Ubuntu just rebuilds the same file back.

Ubuntu :: Several Grub Error Messages On Startup

May 1, 2011

I just installed Natty on my laptop. It has SSD drive, so to align the file system to the physical block size properly I created the partitions manually. After the installation it only boots to the GRUB recovery console, so I tried re-installing GRUB from Live CD by:

Code:
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda

It now boots to the system but always shows the following error messages instead of the GRUB menu on every boot:

Code:
error: file not found.
error: file not found.
error: no suitable mode found.
error: no video mode activated.
error: file not found.
error: file not found.

I suspect that I've missed out something during the installation, since SSD drives seem to need some more attention.

General :: No More Pty - Backup Is Failed - Error Messages

Sep 15, 2009

We have a working backup script which gave no problems ever. But recently the backup is failed giving following error messages,

Statement just before the error occured was, /usr/bin/rsh remoteserver1 /tmp/backup/script.scr

1. The system has no more ptys. Ask your system administrator to create more.
2. The system only has a finite number of ptys and you have many of them in use. The usual reason for this is that you forgot (or didn't know) to call "wait" after closing each of them.

So it looks like the system is falling short of the /dev/pty ...atleast I think so. Dont know the real reason.
