Re: [tbox-l] What rpm package contains "md5sum" ?

[Philip K W. <pk...@us...>]

The 'md5sum' program is found in the coreutils RPM, available here: 
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc/coreutils/coreutils-5.2.1-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm

To determine which RPM owns a specific file, you can use the "rpm -qf" 
command. For example:

# rpm -qf /opt/freeware/bin/md5sum 
coreutils-5.2.1-1

[tbox-l] What rpm package contains "md5sum" ?






I have md5sum in /opt/freeware/bin on AIX V5.3, but not sure
which package contains it and our customer is asking about it.

What package on

http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/aix/products/aixos/linux/download.html

contains md5sum?

Thanks!

RE: [tbox-l] Weird GCC problem

[Robert O. <ro...@be...>]

Hi Jurjen,

I have experienced the same problem with GCC 3.3.2 on AIX 5L 5.3, but
managed to work around it by building a patched stable version of GCC
3.3.2,
see below.

Looking around at the internet for a solution I came across=20
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3D2003536&forum_id=
=3D
3648
that basically says that the following assumption in CPP migh be invalid
on some systems.

gcc-3.2.2/gcc/cppfiles.c:40
   /* Use mmap if the file is big enough to be worth it (controlled
      by MMAP_THRESHOLD) and if we can safely count on there being
      at least one readable NUL byte after the end of the file's
      contents.  This is true for all tested operating systems when
      the file size is not an exact multiple of the page size.  */

Our solution was to patch cppfiles.c using the patch below and rebuild
gcc-3.3.2
halfway (it was not possible to rebuild libstc++ due to link errors),
and taking
the core gcc files=20
  gcc-3.3.2/objdir/gcc/cc1*
and replacing the same files in=20
  /opt/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/3.3.2/cc1*

[tbox-l] Compiling Samba 3.0.14a on AIX 5.3: iconv support?

[Jurjen O. <ju...@st...>]

Hi there,

I'm using C for AIX version 6, latest PTF to compile Samba 3.0.14a on an
AIX 5.3 ML2 machine. During the "configure" phase, a warning is displayed
that the system has insufficient iconv support. None of the following
conversions are provided:

from CP850 to UCS2-LE
from IBM850 to UCS2-LE
from ASCII to UCS2-LE
from 646 to UCS2-LE
from UTF-8 to UCS2-LE
from UTF8 to UCS2-LE

It suggests to install GNU libiconv, but I'm reluctant to do so because I
don't know whether that'll interfere with the system-provided iconv.

On my OpenBSD-system at home (with GNU iconv), most of the above
conversions are provided.

How was this handled with the Samba 2.2.7 package from the Toolbox? Do I
need to worry about the insufficient iconv support (it's a warning, and not
an error, after all)?

Thanks,

[tbox-l] Weird GCC problem

[Jurjen O. <ju...@st...>]

Hi there,

I have a problem with gcc-3.3.2-5 on AIX 5.3. I'm using the AIX
5.3 version of the package.

I'm trying to compile ucspi-tcp-0.88 (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp.html),
but there are weird errors, such as GCC complaining about an internal bug:

# make
        ( cat warn-auto.sh;  echo 'main="$1"; shift';  echo exec "`head -1
conf-ld`"  '-o "$main" "$main".o ${1+"$@"}'  ) > load
        chmod 755 load
        ( cat warn-auto.sh;  echo exec "`head -1 conf-cc`" '-c ${1+"$@"}'
) > compile
        chmod 755 compile
        cat warn-auto.sh choose.sh  | sed s}HOME}"`head -1 conf-home`"}g  >

        chmod 755 choose

make: The error code from the last command is 1.


Stop.


Were this an i386 system, I'd immediately suspect the hardware. This
happens on a p550 though, and the system doesn't log any hardware errors
and all other applications seem to work fine. Also, it happens in more
than one LPAR. But.... the symptoms are eerily similar to i386 hardware
problems: after the error above, immediately invoking make again will
compile some more of the program until it bombs out again. It's not always
an internal compiler error, but always "weird" in the sense that invoking
"make" resumes compiling as if the error didn't happen, and "weird" because
it complains about things as errors in system headers or syntax errors in
the program source which aren't there.

After typing "make" a few times, the program even compiles successfully. :-)

This behaviour also occurs with other programs, not just ucspi-tcp.

C for AIX (version 6, latest PTF) doesn't have this problem, not even on
the same machine/LPAR. The exact same program consistently compiles just fine,
in one pass, without errors. 

The system is at AIX 5.3 ML2, with critical fixes. Are the symptoms above
familiar to anybody here?

Thanks,

[tbox-l] Current RPMs

[<RSh...@ra...>]

I am running Samba 2.2.7 on my AIX 5.2 system.

There have been reports of problems with this version.

Which RPM (RedHat, Suse, etc.) would I down load from samba.org?

Is there a difference between the RPMs?

Thanx,

Roger.

Re: [tbox-l] Unable to install Open SSH on a 5.2 64bit AIX system.

[Mark A W. <wh...@us...>]

The detailed (very detailed)  procedure from IBM/AIX is

uninstall  ssh

uninstall   ssl

rm /dev/random  /dev/urandom

reboot

rpm --rebuilddb

rpm -updtvpkg   <---  I think these options are undocumented

install ssl

install  ssh

I had better luck when i installed the ssh client and then the server 
instead of installing both at the same time.

Re: [tbox-l] Unable to install Open SSH on a 5.2 64bit AIX  system.






I too have had this problem but found the answer at:

                 https://sourceforge.net/projects/openssh-aix

under "Support Requests" (not "Bugs"):

                 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=710255&group_id=127997&func=browse

in this item:

                 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1186783&group_id=127997&atid=710255


The shortest version of the answer is:

                 "Remove /dev/random and /dev/urandom files and reboot the 
system."

Medium answer is:
---------
Seems that under some conditions, AIX will create /dev/random and 
/dev/urandom 
with the wrong major number.

Check what it *should* be with
    odmget CuDvDr | grep -p random

"value2" is the major number.  Check the devices:
    ls -l /dev/*random

If the major numbers do not match what's in CuDvDr, delete /dev/random and 

/dev/urandom, reboot, then re-try the OpenSSH install (remove the failed 
attempt first).
---------

There is a non reboot method explained there also but others claim it 
wasn't enough.

[tbox-l] gmake 3.80 failure

[Christoph P. <pos...@de...>]

Hi,

using gmake on an AIX 5.2 system, I am getting the following error message.
[ibmpospi@p091et01 gmake=5Ftest]$ gmake exe
Preparing local files for compiling.
  No file has been modified/created since the last compilation.
  There is nothing to compile.
Compiling necessary files and link the binaries.
Make.preferlib.sh(0): Using production object library.
gmake[1]: *** virtual memory exhausted.  Stop.

The gmake version used is the following.
[ibmpospi@p091et01 gmake=5Ftest]$ rpm -q -a | grep make-3
make-3.80-1

This error disappears, if I transfer (via ftp) a gmake executable from an=20
older system to my $HOME/bin and retry. The older version is at the followi=
ng=20
level.
[ibmpospi@n001et01 ibmpospi]$ rpm -q -a | grep make-3
make-3.79.1-3

Does this ring a bell with anyone ?

Re: [tbox-l] Unable to install Open SSH on a 5.2 64bit AIX system.

[Gregory Y. <gre...@uc...>]

I've found some notes and recollections from when I had this problem:

From an unknown source:
<<
/dev/random on AIX 5.2
AIX 5.2 has the entropy device /dev/random. However, the select() call 
does not work on this device with versions of bos.rte.security subsystem 
before 5.2.0.11. This will cause problems for packages such as OpenSSH and 
OpenSSL that require /dev/random on this platform
>>

Looking at my 5200-02 directory, it contains both 
bos.rte.security.5.2.0.10.U and bos.rte.security.5.2.0.13.U.  I had been 
getting the same message on a 5200-00 system.  It went away after applying 
ML4.  ML2 may be sufficient based on the above filesets and requirements 
for /dev/random and select().

Gregory Young

Maybe off topic:
Use
http://www.zip.com.au/~dtucker/openssh/
instead of IBM Version (supports all IBM Features + TCP-Wrapper).
Works for my on AIX 5.2 ML04 64-Bit!

Maybe off topic:
Use
http://www.zip.com.au/~dtucker/openssh/
instead of IBM Version (supports all IBM Features + TCP-Wrapper).
Works for my on AIX 5.2 ML04 64-Bit!

Re: [tbox-l] Could you pls provide Python 2.3.5 RPM package?

[David C. <cl...@au...>]

I was able to compile Python 2.3.4 (haven't tried 2.3.5) on AIX.  That wa=
s
a few months back; I remember having to experiment with the flags a littl=
e
bit and I don't remember the details but I also arrived at used --with-th=
reads
and --disable-ipv6, but I used the IBM VisualAge C compiler so I did not =
use
the --with-gcc option:

export OPT=3D"-qcpluscmt -O -qmaxmem=3D-1 -DAIX_GENUINE_CPLUSPLUS"
export LIBS=3D"-lC"   # loadAndInit for IBM xlC_r
./configure --without-pymalloc --prefix=3D/opt/freeware --with-cxx=3DxlC_=
r \
   --enable-shared --with-threads --disable-ipv6


The Toolbox python will move up to 2.3.4 (the version that has been pendi=
ng
with our lawyers) into the Toolbox whenever they grant us permission to d=
o so;
as with this and other Toolbox packages, there is not a set time schedule.

There are several things I like about cfengine and several I don't like.
I've decided to use a simple perl script and cvs instead.

[tbox-l] Berkley DB 4.2.52.NC and cfengine

[PAUL W. <pwi...@ma...>]

I am hoping to use rpm to install a product called cfengine
(http://www.cfengine.com) on a few of my AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 machines.  It
requires db to run some of its anomaly detection.  Is there a
possibility that a newer version of the Berkley DB be built?  Version
3.3 is on the site, and I'm hoping to install the version noted above. 
Also, there appears to be no cfengine available, could it be built?
 
Thanks,
Paul

Re: [tbox-l] Gcc 3.3.2 for AIX 5.2

[David C. <cl...@au...>]

There wasn't a plan to do so... until this.
As long as the AIX 5.2 build appeared sufficient for 5.3 also, we would
not intend to build separate copies for each OS level.  However, it looks
like you have found a reason to do so.
I'll look for time in the next few days to get it out reasonably soon;
possibly just a day if nothing unexpected occurs during in the build.

I've noticed that the gcc 3.3.2 binary for AIX 5.2 does not appear to be
completely compatible with AIX 5.3. The pthread.h file changed in AIX
5.3 and because of that a copy of gcc built on 5.2 does not support
posix threading when run on 5.3. Is there a plan to make a gcc binary
available for AIX 5.3?

The way to make the glade_xml_signal_autoconnect() function work correctly

Subject: [tbox-l] Problems with glade_xml_signal_autoconnect()

Hi,

I'm trying to use the glade_xml_signal_autoconnect() function that comes
with libglade to automatically join signals listed in a glade-2 generated
XML file back to their appropriate signal handling callback functions. It
does this by looking up these symbols in the parent binary file's symbol
table. I put together a small code example and it runs and compiles fine on
Linux, but fails to match up any signals with the callback functions on
AIX.

I've seen online in a few places that I need to use the --export-dynamic
flag, but gcc complains that this is an invalid flag during both compiling
and/or linking. Some places say that extern "C" is needed, but since I'm
using the gcc (C) compiler, and not g++ (C++), this should not be necessary
(and the compiler wont compile it anyway).

I've posted a bug at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1186038&group_id=128955&atid=712808
.
 It has compiler flags and sample source listed.
But I know that AIX can be picky when it comes to sharing or exporting
symbols. Has anyone out there gotten this to work? Maybe there is something
extra that I need to do to make this work that I'm currently overlooking?

Thanks,

Joel Wheeler
