I just replaced the DL-1.3.4 cd with the new one and after i updated
all my personal settings and checked that everything runs fine i
did a save-config, just like everytime when i tried a new release.

After that the error appeared!
It was still possible to save the config file as you can see.
In the evening i will do a reboot and i will tell you if everything starts
up normal.

I recently moved the gzip programs from /bin to /usr/bin, but I didn't
touch bzip2, and save-config doesn't seem to have any paths hardcoded.

Is there something I can do to duplicate the error message?

You have something in there that's large.  It might be the snort stuff.
My etc-mods.tar.bz2 files have ranged from 4K to 32K, and all easily fit
on a floppy, along side my old/larger config.

You can find out what's being stored in memory by examining 
/shm/etc-mods, something like:

  find /shm/etc-mods -type f

Hmm, seems not the problem.

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] 1.3.5_etc_migration_problem

[Bruce S. <bw...@ar...>]

Is it possible your config media is full?  That's the only problem I've
run into with save-config.  I'm using an floppy image in VMware.  

1.3.5 saves the new config under a different name and leaves the old
config alone.  If there aren't room for both, then save-config will
fail.  I don't remember the exact error message, as most of the time
there is room for both configs on a single floppy.  

Once you are comfortable 1.3.5 works, you can delete the old config
file.  Or you can backup the old config somewhere else and delete it
from your primary media to make room for the new config.

Not exactly.  I only know _generally_ that there are a lot of updates in
2.6 that are not in 2.4.  I don't know anything specific about that NIC
driver.  I only thought 2.6 would be worth a try.

I have just run a short test on the DL 1.3.5.
I can verify that this release support with the 3c59x.o NIC driver the
3c900-combo
I have not set any option.
In the system with a MSI P4M900 board and a Celeron D processor 1 GB RAM
Build in Ethernet controller VIA Rhine II
It works

[Devil-Linux-discuss] 1.3.5_etc_migration_problem

[Oliver N. <dig...@gm...>]

Hi!

I just installed the new 1.3.5 DL with the new aufs feature.
Everything started like normal.
So i decided to do a save-config
but i've got:

--->

Found configuration file location used by boot: /dev/sda1
using device /dev/sda1
listing difference

bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
        perhaps it is corrupted?  *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device
        Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.

tar: Child returned status 2
tar: etc-mods: Not found in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Do you still want to save?
 (y/n)

<----

Has anyone similar problems to migrate his "old" config file to the
"new" one??

[Devil-Linux-discuss] Apache/PHP file uploads?

[Bruce S. <bw...@ar...>]

Is there some trick to get file uploads to work in DL 1.3 Apache/PHP?

I'm copying/pasting the small example code from the PHP manual and have
spent all afternoon google'ing for a solution and trying different
values in php.ini.  It doesn't even work with a very SMALL file.

When I browse/enter a filename in the input form and press submit, I get
nothing from the POST PHP script.  Apache logs this for each attempt:

[Wed Apr 23 16:08:01 2008] [notice] child pid 4795 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

Do you know if the NIC works in the later 2.6 kernels?

If so, you might want to try DL 1.3.5.  Even though it's a pre-release,
I'm running it in production without problem.

I just uploaded a new build to the FTP server this morning.

[Devil-Linux-discuss] Search for knowledge in installing 3Com 3C900-combo

[J B. \(user\) <use...@te...>]

Hi,
I have a bad combination of Net (coax) and computer (Only PCI slot).

In a set of different network cards I do have a 3com 3c900-combo Boomerang. The board works in the Windows environment and in a BBIagent LINUX.

The NIC do have a automatic selection of media (10base-T, AUI and Coax), which I found is not a implemeted feature in the 3c59x driver.
But the 3com utility DOS disk gives me the opportunuty to set the card for my need.

A lot of LINUX users have reported problems to get this card to work in many LINUX distributions.
As I they report that the installation of the card indicates that the card is correctly installed but the TX and RX counters stays to 0 in the process.

Some users have noticed that the lowest level works with PING. But nothing more.
Since there are very few users on LINUX on this particular NIC there may not be any solutions for me on that NIC. I have read that the 3c900B-combo a later release is done in another way, 3com have made  a driver for that NIC.

I am working today on DL 1.2.14 release
Have set up the firewall with a 3c905B as WAN and the 3c900-combo as LAN

I have a good hope for some assistance from any of you. I am an experinced C programmer with some knowledge in Network driver design.

I wasn't sure whether they had to be shell scripts or whether hard links would 
do the same job.  The gzip web page was not helpful on the matter.

OK, I fixed the gzip package and installed all the missing programs from
the package.  We were missing a bunch of them (zgrep zless zmore znew
gunzip gzexe zcat zcmp zdiff zegrep zfgrep zforce) and some are shell
scripts as you stated in your previous email.

The changes are in CVS.  I'll run a fresh compile tonight with the gzip
changes and set the processor to i586.  [cough, puke :]  

Hopefully it'll finish and I'll upload it tomorrow.  I'll let you know!

All PATA/SATA/SCSI modules are into initrd already. The problem is they are not

This is better :-)  Well done Bruce.

I think I'd be happy to give it a try on my live system but I'd need a 586 
version and, preferably, the zcat bug* fixed.

I think this is because zcat is a sym link to gzip

On Debian zcat is a script which does exec gzip -cd "$@"

So here zcat is trying to compress file again rather than uncompress and send to
stdout.

Why don't you start by reading the documentation on the shorewall and  
nagios websites? Next I would ask google.
There's no DL specific setup for the apps.

[Devil-Linux-discuss] New 1.3.5 available for testing!

[Bruce S. <bw...@ar...>]

I uploaded a new 1.3.5 i686 server build to the FTP server for testing!

It is mainly bug fixes for aufs.  Files are no longer in "mods" that
don't need to be there, some upgrade-config fixes, and a newer version
of busybox thanks to Serge.

Serge:  I'll test this build on my SATA CD system soon and let you know!

I could be wrong of course, but I think that's the case.

CONFIG_PARALLEL_JOBS is only used by "make makefile" ?
And is ignored by "make build install" ?

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] DL configuration

[Heiko Z. <he...@zu...>]

"make makefile" only takes care of build, install and iso.
Yes you can use it for the official release, but I would set it to  
compile only 1 script at the time. Sometimes it doesn't behave right,  
depending how many you do in parallel. This fine for test compiles,  
but not for production. If it fails, just run "make makefile" again  
and it usually works.
I use this on my dual core box:
CONFIG_PARALLEL_JOBS=4

3 may be better, but I like stressing the box. ;-)

Where else do you use "make makefile"?
Do you use it after a make mrproper?  (how?)
Do you use it for a "DL_IS_OFFICIAL_RELEASE"?  (how?)
