FC39 Upgrade failure - Kernel not in grub
by Robin Laing 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

Hello, I did an upgrade today from from FC37 to FC39 and all went well except that the kernel is NOT in grub. All the apps are now FC39 but no option to boot with the FC39 kernel. I tried to reinstall the kernel to see if it would be picked up by grub that that didn't work either. RPM shows that the kernel is installed. How do I progress from here? Robin

Strange problem with phpmyadmin after recent dnf upate??
by Michael D. Setzer II 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

Failed to set session cookie. Maybe you are using HTTP instead of HTTPS to access phpMyAdmin. Had been using firefox to access phpMyAdmin on a system to update databases. Just now get the above error message. Have found that if I run firefox from root user rather than my user it works fine and connects and allows same processes that I was able to do? So, what might have changed. Recall seeing firefox upgrade, but tried with Chrome and same error message? +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.

ulimit or files-max?
by Alex 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

Hi, what is the current way to increase the number of available open files? This is for a mariadb database server I'm trying to configure based on instructions from the database developer to increase the total number of files to 50000. I've added the following to /etc/security/limits.conf and rebooted: root - nofile 50000 ulimit -n as root now shows: # ulimit -n 50000 Can this value also be set by using sysctl and setting fs.file-max to 50000? # sysctl -a|grep file fs.file-max = 50000 fs.file-nr = 6864 0 50000 fs.xfs.filestream_centisecs = 3000 Which is the correct way? Also, does fs.file-nr mean there are currently 6864 open files on the system?

Dnf install ffmpeg.
by Ger van Dijck 12 Nov '23

12 Nov '23

Linux Lovers, With my respects to Andre Robatino , Samuel Sieb , Harald Labes , ja (?) , and Tom Horsley : Your advises did not have any results. Giving Dnf install ffmpeg creates the following message : Error/Problem ffmpeg.6.0-16.fc39.x86_64 from rpmfusion requires ffmpeg-libs(x86_64)=6.0-16.fc39 but none of the providers can be installed. Conflicting/Requests Nothing provides libopenh264.so7 (64 bit) needed by ffmpeg-lib.6.0-16.fc39.x86_64 from rpmfusion. So by the way the Tor browser is inable to play videos. Question : How to solve this problem ? Regards , Ger van Dijck. Gemaakt met Opera's e-mailprogramma: http://www.opera.com/mail/

Hay All, When I try to install skypeforlinux 8.108.0.205-1.x86_64.rpm I get the message Certificate and Primery key invalid and both seem to be not alive. Question : How can the keys become valid and alive ? Question : Is this a Microsoft problem ? Regards, Ger van Dijck. -- Gemaakt met Opera's e-mailprogramma: http://www.opera.com/mail/

strange problem, may be related to ssh
by fedora＠eyal.emu.id.au 12 Nov '23

12 Nov '23

Since the middle of the night on 7/Nov, uploading files with ssh is problematic. My SMTP server requires SSL/TLS security, and uploading files to the same site requires sftp. So both run over ssh. I have a few scripts that run from cron and send me mail when required. They also upload some files for other people and for me when I am away from home. Now here is the problem. Small files pass though just fine. Using sftp I measured that files up to 1300 bytes upload, but anything larger hangs. Large mail is also blocked, queued as seen in mailq: (timeout writing message to xxxx.xxxx.net.au.: Connection timed) It seems that after some time (often hours) things resolve. Rebooting the machine also allows the mail through. Scripts that upload larger files (using lftp) hang for hours. Now I tested the same from a laptop over 4G and it does not show any of these problems. So it is probably not at the receiving end (I also asked them). All they see is occasional timeouts on mail and ssh (from me). I cannot figure what can do this. Small files upload OK larger ones hang??? I said earlier "middle of the night" because I was not at my computer then and nothing of note that I could see, but the problems started showing in the logs. There is still the possibility of my ISP fiddling with the modem remotely (in the past they did it around this time). I am chasing them. One thing that can help now is a way to un-hang the uploads without having to reboot. I do not know where to even look. Some details: The modem uses 4G for wireless internet. I used a laptop wired to my server, then wired to the modem, then connected to my WiFi ap (which is wired to the modem) and all hang on large(ish) uploads. Only when I connected the laptop to my phone (as a WiFi ap) things worked well. BTW, one thing I did was disable ipv6 but the problem persists. -- Eyal at Home (eyal(a)eyal.emu.id.au)
