I was thinking of upgrading my centos 4.5 systems to 5 but all over their docs its like they are telling you doing any sort of upgrade especially yum upgrade will break everything. It keeps saying fresh install is reccomended method.
View 4 RepliesI have recently upgraded our server from Server 2000 to Server 2003. Everything was running smoothly except for one thing.
It keeps on forgetting how to display .asp pages.
When I view the website all I get is a white screen as if its loading the page but never does, the busy icon up at the top right hand side of the browser contines to spin but nothing. If I try and view a .html page it works without a problem. So the server is running and it can read .html files without a problem.
Now here is the strange bit, if I restart the the WWW publishing service on the server the .asp page all of a sudden work and continue to work until the following morning when it all dies again.
I have checked the event logs and there is no errors or anything that I can see that would be causing this problem.
Has anyone else had similiar problem or at least have an idea on how to fix this. I can't be restarting the WWW publishing service every day just so .asp pages work!
I might still be a bit too close to the newbie level to be trying this
but I wanted upgrade various components of my cpanel install for security issues.
So I got openssl to update to 0.9.8g and that seemed to be working correctly.

openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
So now I am trying to build PHP 4.4.8 like this:
Quote:
./configure --with-litespeed --with-config-file-path=../php --with-mysql=/usr --with-zlib --with-zlib-dir=.. --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir=.. --with-png-dir=.. --enable-shmop --enable-track-vars --enable-sockets --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-magic-quotes --with-openssl
And it fails because of the openssl:
Quote:
Make
...
In function `zif_openssl_seal':
/php-4.4.8/ext/openssl/openssl.c:2885: undefined reference to `EVP_CIPHER_CTX_block_size'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
(I tried --with-openssl=/usr with no change)

I took out a web hosting plan in 2006. The MySQL version is 4.0
I requested my webhost to upgrade to MySQL 4.1 but they said I'd have to purchase a new account.
Is this reasonable or should I bring it up again and push for them to upgrade?
We upgraded 7 servers from our network from PHP 4.4.7 to PHP 5.2.5, and Apache 1.3.3.9 to Apache 2.0.61. In only one of this servers we found problems with includes...
Include example that works:
Code:
<?
include("http://www.google.com");
?>
This doesnt work:
Code:
<?
include("path/file.php");
?>
And path/file.php does exist, also log error from apache doesnt even show a line .
allow_url_fopen was replaced by allow_url_include and it's set to On.
Im using PHP 5.2.5, Apache 2.0.61, cPanel and RHES 4.
Today I upgraded my dual opteron dedicated server from a 10mbps port to 100mbps. While the number of apache access have dropped by about a quarter my CPU usage has increased also by about a quarter, my CPU is touching on 95-100% now.
What’s most likely to be the cause?
What’s also interesting is my network port is only showing 20mbps usage, nowhere near the 100mbps its been upgraded to.
I'm familiar with shared hosting but a complete novice to virtual servers, I'm getting the following error message when I go to my new virtual server IP [url]
If you see this page it means:
1. hosting for this domain is not configured
or
2. there's no such domain registered in Parallels Plesk Control Panel
Now am I getting that because...
a) I need to set something up in the PLESK control panel thing or
b) Is it a DNS issue? Its only been 30 hours since the migration from shared hosting.
I was told when I upgraded that I wouldn't have to do anything and there would be no interruption as the site www.mydomain.com would continue to use the shared hosting until the virtual one was set.
Is it a question of waiting for the DNS to update so it points to [url]: or do I have to set something up?
I upgraded today from 11 to 12, however since the upgrade I am now unable to start the PSA Service, it comes up with the below error.
Starting psa... Starting sw-engine-fpm: Thu Jun 19 13:22:29 2014 (7885): Fatal Error Unable to allocate shared memory segment of 104857600 bytes: mmap: Cannot allocate memory (12)
I have checked resources and everything should be fine, I cant see a reason why it cant allocate the memory, as there is plenty free for it to take from.
I have tried a Bootstrapper repair for 12 however this has not found any issues other than its not able to stop the PSA Service (As its not running)
Everything else is up and running its just the Parallels backend which im guessing is what the PSA Service is!
I updated two days ago the Plesk panel from the Panel itself and it was succesfully but at webmail URL which it appeared one error about default.inc something but after I did refresh some times it disappeared now it doesn't show anything. I tried removing and reinstalling roundcube but still doesn't work..
Here are my logs from /var/log/plesk-roundcube/errors

I just ordered a dell server a few days ago and have noticed in addition to a free harddrive upgrade I now have an upgraded processor for the same price.
PE860 Quad-Core Xeon X3220 2.4GHz/2x4MB 1066FSB (105W)
Free Processor Upgrade to QC Xeon 5320
The question for me is which is better? The previous processor was the low energy 105W one which suited me fine as I'm co-locating this to a DC where they are very strict on power consumption.
Is this one going to provide a noticable performance increase over the first? Is it a major power hog?
What is the difference between CentOs 5.0 and Centos 4.5? (Both contains Plesk)

Please post, comments, questions, etc. here.
I've myself upgraded many servers this way, (even, tonight, I upgraded another, so I finally decided to do this with all my notes)
linux and after several days testing different distributions and a bunch of different ways (e.g. freenx,vnc XFCE ...) I've decided to setup a vnc-server on CentOS-5-i386-minimal and use KDE as a desktop environment.
After reloading my vps with centos-5-i386-minimal, I logged in as root and executed:
Code:
yum update
yum -y groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"
yum -y install vnc vnc-server firefox X11 xorg
I then added a user "abt" and set the password. Then I logged in as abt and execute : vncserver, it asked for the password and created the appropriate .vnc directory and files.
I then edited xstartup file and replaced "twm &" with "startkde &" and executed vncserver once again, this created desktop number 2 for me.
The problem is that after running TightVNC(on vista) and entering IPNUMBER:2, It successfully connects to vnc-server but what i get is a black screen with X cursor!
i have a colo server, lately im having problem, every 2-3 oclock in the morning my server crash, i asked the server management to have a look at it but no luck, they install rpm, reduce the http max, etc, etc ( i dont want to mention the name since my server management have helped me alot and its not fair for them if i speak a bad thing about them ) anyway,

Is there really no package in yum for APC (Alternative PHP Cache)? Everything I'm seeing suggests I build it from source.
Is this the way to go? I can, it just seems unlikely to me that there's no build of it.
is there any GUI ( pre installed ) in centOS 4 ..
if yes, how can we access it,
if no, how can we install GUI and access it...
Will be reloading server OS and wondering with which one of those should I go?

I need to install all the ffmpeg/transcoding junk - something I've done before...
...but now, I'm having huge issues. Yum and up2date don't seem to have *any* idea of where anything, from ffmpeg to flvtool2 is.
I'm crap at quite a bit (read most) of the command line stuff. Whadddoo I need to do? Why is yum telling me there are no matches for the damn stuff?
How can I get from A to B properly without the hassle?
I did have a VPS before, with memset.com - and all this stuff installed fine on Fedora 4 (it was a VMWare based VPS so everything worked, unlike the Xen based ones I've experienced).

I would like to get a second opinion on this. I was going to put CentOS 64 bit on my server but I have been told to put the 32 bit version on it instead because it is a more stable version. I have never heard this before and am new to doing colo and would like to verify this before I end up doing something I may forget?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have been using Centos for several years but have not been a user long enough to see what happens when the new version comes out.
I expect Centos 4 will be around a while however how quickly are hosting companies planning to adopt Centos 5?
I've recently started using apt on centos, using the tutorial I found on dag's site. So far I'm enjoying it, since I have years and years of experience running debian unstable.
Are there any caveats? Has anyone here tried doing a dist-upgrade to a new version (say CentOS 5)?
whats the difference with 32bit centos and 64 bit
I heard 64 bit gives better Mysql Performances but if I get 64 bit will I be able to use the same stuff I use on my 32 bit currenty?
Like directAdmin, APF firewall etc.., Just few from top of my head.
