Hello, I have trapped in weird problem. My Setup is CentOS 6.3 Desktop edition x86_64 arch. My login screen is blinking so frequently that I am unable to see and login into it. And also I am unable to reinstall the OS because it will take very long time re-setup everything as per my configuration as well as Data. The problem is as follows: I have several months ago libgcc-4.4.6.i686. Today for installing rsyslog, I updated the package libgcc-4.4.7.i686 and libgcc-4.4.7.x86_64. Then thinking about chances of conflict, I removed libgcc-4.4.7.i686 it has also removed the cups-libs gmp gnutils gtk2 libstdc++ libtiff peazip all are i686 type. Then I installed same packages for 64 bit through yum install <above packages> Message also said successfully installed. Then I try to open another terminal window but it was suddenly closing so I thought restart might solve this problem; so I restart the computer. I am getting normal CentOS login backgroud but getting faster blinking screen. How should I solve this problem (except formatting the CentOS) as CentOS is the only OS on that machine. 1. How to login into CentOS now?? 2. Which package should I need to install and how ?? Kindly do the needful, Thank you !! *-- Cheers, Mayur. *
Hello, One more thing as per I think I have lost only file which responsible for GUI of the centos. If anyone has Idea which files I need to get Login and other explorer screen back in action that will be a great help to me. And I also want to ask that is it possible to install that files from Putty; I have windows on other PC so that from terminal there I can install on centos machine?? Waiting for your reply, Thanks !! -- *Cheers, Mayur*.
You should not have removed the i686 packages. The packaging system ensures that there are no conflicts. I suggest that you reinstall them. It may be that there is no need of them, but second-guessing the packaging system is never a good idea, unless you know *exactly* what you are doing.

[CentOS] Problem getting mysqldump on Centos 5.x server
Hello all,
I have a dedicated hosting account that I am closing down but I am
having problems getting an access denied error when I run the mysqldump
command from the ssh prompt, logged in as root. So, the hosting provider,
who saw the same error, reported, " Hence, we would suggest you directly
FTP
the database from server to your machine by using ssh client." I am not
sure what that means. Unless it means going into the /home/msyql directory
and then into the corresponding directory for the particular db that I am
trying to get. This is for a joomla installation. So, there are files that
include db.opt and then jos_banner.frm, jos_banner.MYD, jos_banner.MYI, and
etc.
So, do I download all those files?
I am wanting to move the site to another server which is a VPS hosting
account that also runs Centos 5.x.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Bruce
Hi Bruce>From your message I am assuming that either you installed MySQL yourself orhad some do it for you? Is the mysql database currently running? If not it should be. Are you able to access the database using the command line tools ? From the machine its currently running on try mysql -p ( when prompted enter the password you believe should work) If it is running I suggest you schedule a time to shut it down and reset the root password See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html or Google Moving the physical files associated with a MySQL Database can be made to work if you absolutely must. But getting a mysql dump is a much cleaner approach. I hope this helps :) On Wed, Apr 24, 2013 at 1:20 PM, Bruce Whealton <bruce at futurewaveonline.com>wrote:> Hello all, > I have a dedicated hosting account that I am closing down but I am > having problems getting an access denied error when I run the mysqldump > command from the ssh prompt, logged in as root.
