I am getting this problem on urpmi when I want to install or search the rpm database:

Hi I installed Wengophone and it starts connecting and then disapears. Anyone experienced this issue? can someone provide some advice.

Thanks.

What error do you receive when you start it from the command line?

I would know if X didnt explode.

September 2, 2007

What's that?
Do you probably mean libogg.so.3 ?

No i mean libagg.so.2, is a dependency of gnash. Check the attachment of the window.

September 1, 2007

I have gnash on my system and 2 days ago I got an update from the mandrivaupdate.

I can't get it on because ti says that it can't find libagg.so.3

Has anyone been able to get this similar thing and fix it.

Thanks./

chkconfig portmap on

then

service portmap start

or

/etc/init.d/portmap start

-

Exactly exccept that I dont get an output, I get something like this:

$ service portmap start

$

there is no

portamp is running...

or

portmap is starting...

There is no FAILED or OK tag. Just like if service was not even working, but it is working with other services.

I got a problem with mandriva 2007.1 spring where service can't restart the nfs and the samba services. One of the problems I have seen is that portmaper doesnt run and rpc.nfsd is also not working.

Has anyone seen this happening?

There has also been some problems since shorewall originally block the NFS ports. But I see this as a different thing.

So I wont let people just bash mandriva in tipica trol fashion. I have never experienced this before and I dont think I would of generalized that the distro is any less valuable because of a simple re-install service.

I have ran mandriva/mandrake for many years as a server and found utilities such as the policy management far supiror than other distros. I know hardcore server guys that use mandriva on the government and organization as a server with no issue.

As for urpmi, I heard that smart has became a better solution in the mandriva world.

July 19, 2007

you know which log file will tell me these, unfortunately messages didn't help much. I dont get the exact output from a linux start up on the logs from what I can see.

All I get is:

Jul 18 17:55:13 genius kernel: NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory

Jul 18 17:55:13 genius kernel: NFSD: starting 90-second grace period

July 18, 2007

Have you tried the init.d scripts directly
/etc/init.d/nfs**** start|stop ?

and same for portmap?

Have you rechecked the packages are installed?

Yes I did all that, however everything was there yet nothing was working. The service command was defoinetly working so it wasn't an issue regarding the 'service' or init.d manager.

I end up solving it by removing the whole stack (nfs-utils nfs-utils-client and portmap) and reinstalling.

I also check the errata and saw sme nfs bugs but nothing like I experienced.

July 17, 2007

I assume you are root when you give the service command?

yes of course, it doesnt even work from drakxservices.

if I was a regular user I will get something like command not found.

July 17, 2007

I am not able to have NFS working on Mandriva Spring 2007. I get nothing out of:

service nfs start/status/stop

nor do I get from portmap or nfslock.

July 14, 2007

The problem is that he doesn't have libphp5_common5 installed.

Cool stuff, good to know that is working now.

Hi John,

Unfortunately the UI is not very sophisticated. For example I can't edit the .backupitgnore to let say to backup my home 'except' my Pictures/Music/Videos.

In other words if I just wanto backup my 'dot files' I can't do it.

Also on cron I can't edit it since my interface don't light up (it shows as unaccesible even after installing crontab and anacron. I could edit crontab myself but then again, I am not sure what command (and parameters) I need to execute the backup.

That is why I am asking if one can give me the tour under the hood of drakbackup.

Report · July 13, 2007

I want to know how can I disable some of the backups. I don't want to backup my system folder at /etc/

I also have questions regarding the use of .backupignore (where can I find this file)

Finally I have crontab but I don't get all the options on the 'when' option within drakbackup.

Hope you guys can answer these questions.

Or completely graphically by going on to KDE's Run Command dialog:

Star > Run Command

Then clicking on Other Options and selecting on run as different user and typing:

User: root

Password: your_password

and running kwrite or kate (depending on what you have) and editing the menu.lst

I am not sure what you need. For example I usually use the urpmf command to locate a specific file on the mandriva sources. I also download mlocate to locate the files on my filesystem.

So it seems there is the libphp5_common5 that you can check if you are missing or not by doing the:

rpm -qa |grep libphp5

No need to use locate because we already know the path to the library. But I will put the apache snippet on php that is at /etc/httpd/modules.d/70_mod_php.conf.

<IfDefine HAVE_PHP5>
<IfModule !mod_php5.c>
	LoadModule php5_module	extramodules/mod_php5.so
</IfModule>
</IfDefine>

<IfModule mod_mime.c>
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
	DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml
</IfModule>
</IfModule>

We can see that the library is actually on extramodules/mod_php5.so now you can do a locate (if you dont have it download mlocate). If you find it then everything shoudl work but if you dont have it probably an apache package was missing.

Hi I run net-o-profiles to switch between my home and business networks. However many apps don't get the new settings. Example, my opera browser and Gnome (gnome-network-preference). So I want to know if its possible to run scriptsof this application. I would like to invoke a script I did to finish the job or maybe use some of the tools within the mandriva network profiles.

Thanks.

I been experiencing problems with urpmi ever since I re-install it in my system. The urpmi database will not remove the .LOCK and .RPMLOCK files from the /var/lib/urpmi/ directory causing the database to remain lock after an update check up or a different installation.

This is a new 2007.1 'spring' installation with urpmi version 4.9.21

Thanks.

Hi I want to change my IP from dynamic to static using the command line. Currently I will do something like this:

Open Mandriva Control Center
Go to Network and Internet
Go to "Reconfigure Network Interface"
On Device choose my ethernet card
On Protocol switch from DHCP to Static
Insert IP/Netmask/Gateway
Click OK

So I think on the cli the process will be something like:

$ su
Password ****
$ ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
$ route add -net default gw 192.168.1.0

However what I want to know if how to find out what I am currently running on (DHCP or Static) before modifiying.

serial = "pty" # enable serial console
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash	= 'restart'

The problem I get is on Disk, it comes up with the errror:

Error: invalid literal for int(): :cdrom

Any help would be appreciated.
