I set this computer up with Centos 8 a few days ago. "systemctl status mlocate-updatedb.timer" says "Active (waiting)". But the mlocate database hasn't been updated since the last time I ran updatedb manually. # ls -l /var/lib/mlocate/* -rw-r-----. 1 root slocate 22944208 Feb 29 10:30 /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db What have I missed? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D

Hi list For some reason mlocate is taking a long time when I run the updatedb command. Have a look! [root at beta:~] #time updatedb real 19m48.729s user 0m0.400s sys 0m2.728s It's not a big volume by any means [root at beta:~] #df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda1 75G 9.1G 63G 13% / So I'm wondering what could be causing

I've just noticed that I'm having issues with finding files using "locate" when those files are on btrfs subvolume mounts. The issue is that updatedb cannot discern the difference between a btrfs bind mount and btrfs subvolume [1]. This generally means that if you're using btrfs subvolume mounts and updatedb at the same time, and you want to index those subvolumes,

Hi RedHat 7.2, ext3 on /, kernel 2.4.18p1. whilst updatedb was running, i had these messages appear... Jan 6 22:18:42 jaguar kernel: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory #147553: rec_len %% 4 != 0 - offset=0, inode=1651076143, rec_len=19527, name_len=85 Jan 6 22:18:42 jaguar kernel: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory

I was just wondering if there are special tricks people do that compile A LOT on centos? Do RAM disks help or something else I dont about that minimizes your compile time? I presently have and AMD x2 4800+ with 2GIG ram. Just curious if I can reduce any more time out of my compiles. Jerry

Hello everyone, I've just recently joined the ext3-users list. I spent much of the weekend browsing over list archives and other tidbits I could find on the net, regarding using an external journal, and running in data=journal mode. From what I have seen looking around at what other folks are doing, data=journal with an external journal may be able to help our problem here. If I

hi. I'm trying to install a program using winetricks, but I'm using a separate wine install and WINEPREFIX, I run any command as such - WINEARCH="win32" WINE='/home/de/media_writeit!/FOSS/additional packages/Wine prefixes/Works with wine 1.3.32/wine-1.3.32' WINEPREFIX='/home/de/media_writeit!/temp(others)/walkthrough' ./winetricks And it returns -

What happened????? Where is slocate? what package did I not install? Or is there something newer and better?

Just to follow this up, the mlocate database update started working automatically

Hi I logged in to one of my servers today and noticed that the load average is very high. After investigating the problem I found two processes in "D" stat ("uninterruptible sleep"): root 24344 0.0 0.2 1532 584 ? DN Jul21 0:01 /usr/bin/updatedb -f NFS,SMBFS,NCPFS,PROC,DEVPTS -e /tmp,/var/tmp,/usr/tmp,/afs,/net root 25899 0.0 0.2 1532 584 ? DN

It turns out that if you specify filesystem type `auto' in /etc/fstab, updatedb (the thing which updates your `locate' database) ceases to work. Here's the contents of my /etc/updatedb.conf: PRUNEFS="devpts NFS nfs afs proc smbfs autofs auto iso9660" PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /afs /net" export PRUNEFS export PRUNEPATHS deleting the `auto' entry

Hi all, I am new to this list and puppet. I am working at the Rutherford Appleton Lab and am part of a team that looks after several hundred servers mainly running Scientific Linux (based on RedHat). I am currently looking at puppet to be used to perform what is currently done by kickstart scripts, with these performing an on going configuration job once the systems are built. My current

Hi, I have a global data-frame in my R script. At some point in my script, I want to update certain columns of this data-frame by calling in an update function. The function looks like this: # get events data. This populates a global event data frame in the R-script events <- getEvents(con, eventsFilePath) # events has columns eventid, timeStamp, isSynchronized, timeDiff; with millions of

After you do your update, done forget to do updatedb, makewhatis, ... The locate for rpmnew has a couple items of interest and the locate for rpmsave returns one that occupies 24MB of your precious disks - /var/lib/Pegasus/prev-repository*. It compresses nicely to appx. 1MB, cpio bzipped --best. Change in your rndc key too, for DNS.

Why there is a weekly script that rebuilds the locate database when: >>> WARNING >>> Executing updatedb as root. This WILL reveal all filenames >>> on your machine to all login users, which is a security risk. Is there a way to put dates on the periodic scripts report output for those who redirect the reports to files instead of mail messages? There is no easy

Hello list, I have a problem with an NFS server for my network. It has ran kernels 2.4.18-ac4 - 2.4.21-ac1, all with problems. The -ac patches are used to provide the new style quota support. The system seems to have gotten even less stable with the new kernel versions. This morning around 5 am, I got a page the system was unresponding to NFS requests. I ssh'd in, and found the loadavg

I'm revising some docs, and i've returned on the 'offline logon' tema. Looking at: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/PAM_Offline_Authentication and smb.conf manpage, it is clear that 'offline logon' is a pam/authentication only, does not involve NSS. Considering a 'full offline' DM client (supposing a portable), there's a 'winbind permanent nss
