We had some custom additions to our site.py file for a third party application. 'yum update' to 4.6 overwrote the file with no backup or warning. Not hard to repair, but it did have me worried there for a few minutes when the application failed to start. Is this a python issue, an upstream issue or a CentOS issue? Can something be done about it going forward? Jeff

Hey all. Hope you can help with this. I was running "rake" to run tests on my server we are setting up for production. I''m currently entering all my data into the dev database. After running "rake", my dev database looked just like my test database. It overwrote all my data??!!?? I was using the same db for production and development if that matters. My database.yml file is as follows: development: adapter: mysql database: jcadev host: localhost username: jca password: ************* # Warning: The database defined as ''test'' w...

Oh, Boy. I am in trouble now.... I just installed Centos on a USB drive on my corp notebook. To not TOUCH my corp drive. I spent time with the drive partitioner to make sure that nothing was done to the internal hard drive... Well I missed something and I overwrote the encrypted bootloader on the hard drive. Now what? Can I rescue things? I am leaving for my flight in a couple hours to Dublin for IETF meeting. I have to get this working on my own. I hope there is another copy of the old boot loader somewhere on that system and some way to copy it?????

Hi all, I plan to implement two file servers on CentOS 6 i a two remote location. i need to backup all data from second server on first. First server will be a virtual machine on Esxi, and second server will be physical machine. I plan to use rsync to sync data from second to first server. It is OK ? Any suggestion ? Njegos

Is there anyway to unset the extensions.conf definition of writeprotect=yes while in the CLI interface (or by other mechanism) to enable the dialplan save command? I accidentally overwrote my extensions.conf but still have a running copy of asterisk with the old dial plan running in memory. while it would not be difficult for me to rebuild what I lost - it would be easier if I could just save it from the running copy. I will definitely set the writeprotect option to no in the fu...

...with Samba's database? I know that Samba is able to update the Unix database if a user changes their password via smbpasswd, but what if a user changes their Unix password with passwd? I looked into libpam-smbpass, but it didn't seem to work; the documentation was rather sparse, so I just overwrote my /etc/pam.d/samba with the provided "password-sync" in the samples directory. Additionally, I would prefer not to use unencrypted passwords. Thanks, Stephen Le

Hi, I'm implementing storeRegToStackSlot() and, in order to store some specific registers (floating point regs and address regs) I've to copy them to more standard regs and copy these last ones to the slot. I tried to generate instructions that use physical registers, but by doing that I overwrote registers already assigned by the register allocator. Is it possible to use virtual registers in the instructions generated by storeRegToStackSlot()? This function is called by the register allocator. So, if it needs to store regs on a slot, this means that there is no more registers available. So...

This situation arose in a computer practical this morning. A student overwrote "c" with a function. This messes up lots of things, but it is difficult to remove the function "c" from the global environment because it is used as a function in both "rm" and "remove". [The solution was to reassign "c" as a number, and then remo...

...ange my database schema I end up having to regenerate the scaffold. In the past this was okay, because I would not choose to overwrite files that I have worked on; but this raises a question.... why does rails care if I change the schema? Effectively, the last time I regenerated the scaffolding I overwrote nothing; as far as I can tell, as an application developer, nothing changed between the time that I got the classic error of "database schema has changed" to now when the application works as I expect it. I''m just wondering if this is some protection against developers who don...

...g code to aggregate these based on the first column and get the min and max: min<-aggregate(as.numeric(humanneph[,2]), list(as.numeric(humanneph[,1])), min) max<-aggregate(as.numeric(humanneph[,2]), list(as.numeric(humanneph[,1])), max) Both worked beautifully! THEN, I accidentally overwrote the object min. Since I hadn't touched the object humanneph, I copied the above code from my saved history and re-ran it. I get the following error: Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : argument "INDEX" is missing, with no default So, I went back and again, copying directly from my sav...

Hi All, I had my database fall over earlier, Initially I thought it was due to a change in the OS but the postgresql update overwrote my systemd service file. How can I create a file for my postgresql service that will not be overwritten when updates are applied? Am I correct in thinking it will be something like vi /etc/systemd/system/postgresql.service.d/postgresql-limit-stack.conf #with the contents: .include /etc/systemd/s...

...ls app. I have a few environment.rb constants set, but when I put them into the config/environment/test.rb file as constants to override the environment.rb constants, i get an error that says the constants have already been setup. I know I can''t set constants twice, I thought the test.rb overwrote the shared environment.rb file, I guess I am wrong. Does anyone know how to do this another way? Perhaps using something other than constants? I have tried a few things blind, but they don''t work. Suggestions? -Jon Dodson Open Source Software Engineer Open Sourcery LLC http://www.op...

Hi, i was installing syslinux to a usb drive when, through a typo('sda' instead of of 'sdb'), accidently installed it to my windows partition, which has made it unbootable, i tryed restoring the MBR with windows FDISK and the /MBR option but while it overwrote grub it didn't do so for syslinux, does anyone know how to remove syslinux from the partition?

Because I accidently overwrote my smbpasswd executable file in the /usr/bin directory, I can't continue configuring my Samba server. I'm using Red Hat Linux 6.0 -Could anyone tell me what I should do to get a new executable OR -Could anyone with the same version of Samba as used in Red Hat 6.0 send me his s...

...into it. For this, I'd need a small cpio extraction implementation though. Do you think that could be added to klibc, or do you have a better idea how to solve my problem? (I tried dd'ing an ext2 image to /dev/ram1 and then mounting this but for some reasons I got errors; it looked like I overwrote some important stuff that way and things started to break.) -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/

Hello All, I was setting up a new server and I accidentally overwrote the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Can anyone bail me out with a vanilla copy? Jason

I have a question about which ISO to use to install CentOS 6.3. I have installed it before from a USB stick, and when I did, I got a installation package selection menu. I overwrote that USB with something else, and I work out which ISO is the with that configuration option. When I installed it before, I had the opportunity to select from among the options listed here. http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/20379/centos-6-default-installation-options Yes, I know that I can...
