CentOS 6 guest OS does not detect reboot/shutdown signal from virt-manager

0 votes
401 views

My setup is as follows:

Host OS: Debian Wheezy amd64 stock kernel (3.2), virt-manager v0.9.1

Guest VMs: A bunch of Linux based servers - CentOS 6, Debian 6/7, Ubuntu 12.04 (all amd64 with stock kernel). All of them defined using virt-manager GUI interface.

From the virt-manager, I am able to shutdown/reboot the Debian and Ubuntu guest OSs but not the CentOS 6 guests.

For the CentOS 6 guests, I have to resort to "Force off"

I have looked at the syslog and messages log files but do see anything to correlate between host and guest OS.

Install the acpid package and make sure it is properly started when the VM starts.

ssi not working on virtual host, using CentOS 6.0 with Apache 2.2.15

I am using CentOS 6.0 with Apache 2.2.15, and set up Apache with virtual host. The SSI works fine on the first VH, but ssi on the other virtual hosts does not work. I got the following message in the error log: 

mod_include: Options +Includes (or IncludesNoExec) wasnt set, INCLUDES filter removed

Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

Centos 6.4 hostname is not correct

I currently have a problem with hostname and fqdn.
I use:

# cat /etc/redhat-release ; uname -r
CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
2.6.32-358.11.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64

# hostname
srv1.devel.test.com

# grep HOSTNAME /etc/sysconfig/network
HOSTNAME=srv1.devel.test.com

# cat /etc/hostname
srv1

# cat /etc/domainname
devel.test.com

but

# hostname --fqdn
devel.test.com

As I think it should give: srv1.devel.test.com. Have you got similar problem? Any hint how to solve it?

CentOS 6.4 on old PC not connecting

On an old server (Dell PowerEdge SC1420, now without RAID) I have CentOS 6.4 installed, up, and running -- but it keeps failing to connect for some reason ....

NetworkManager applet 0.8.1 runs blue rings around in the panel for a while, then reports itself disconnected. It also offers a pseudo-choice, if I right-click, between Wired Connection and eth0; in fact, the cable to the router is the only connection the machine has or has ever had.

I've tried such things as I could find to get a connection, in vain. I've tried replacing the cable.

If there's a good fix, I'd like to get my wife running CentOS, because it's one obvious choice for her to have against such time as I'm gone. (I don't at all claim to be the Oldest Subscriber, but I am at an age such that I would be irrational not to plan for such contingencies.)

What new way can I try to get this beast online?

Does anyone have LibreSSL working on CentOS 6.5?

Has anyone gotten this working? I have it compiling no problem, but removing OpenSSL is another story of course. It seems to be compiled with FIPS support and of course there is no such thing in LibreSSL - that is something they tore out
