Hi folks, 1) http://howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_centos_4.4_p4 # mysqladmin -u root password myrootsqlpassword Code: Access denied for user \u2018root\u2019@'localhost\u2019 (using password: NO) # kill `cat /mysql-data-directory/mysql.pid` No complaint. What shall I do next? Repeat "mysqladmin -u root password myrootsqlpassword"? 2) 10 Postfix With SMTP-AUTH And TLS http://howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_centos_4.4_p5 [root@server ssl]# openssl genrsa -des3 -rand /etc/hosts -out smtpd.key 1024 Code: 188 semi-random bytes loaded Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus .........................++++++ .....++++++ e is 65537 (0x10001) Enter pass phrase for smtpd.key: What shall I enter here? TIA # openssl req -new -key smtpd.key -out smtpd.csr It also requests "Enter pass phrase for smtpd.key" What shall I enter as well ? B.R. satimis
Hi folks, On my previous posting I made a mistake leaving out "--" before "password" Retried as follows; [root@server ~]# mysqladmin -u root --password mypassword Code: Enter password: Typing either "mypassword" or "YES" prompted; Code: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)' Also tried as "su -" Still failed satimis
I have the same feeling that there is something wrong on this CentOS 4.4 amd64 box. I'll erase the complete OS later. No use, I tried half day without a breakthrough including groupremoving mysql and reinstalling them as per your howto. Still encountered the same problem. satimis
Another round Hi folks, Erased the complete HD and started another round according to; http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_centos_4.4 All steps went through w/o complaint. Coming to; http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_centos_4.4_p4 # mysqladmin -u root password myrootsqlpassword went through w/o complaint # mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root password myrootsqlpassword (assuming it is ONE line) Code: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'server1.example.com' failed error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query' # cat /etc/hosts Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.100 server1.example.com server1 Pls advise which file I have to check? TIA Edit: I found following thread; http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4078&highlight=mysqladmin+server1.example.com To my understanding I suppose skipping to run "mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root password myrootsqlpassword" on /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 IPADDR=192.168.0.180 and on /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0 IPADDR=192.168.0.101 Is there any specific meaning on selecting the above IPADDR? On my router here "192.168.0.10" is reserved for Server. If changing "192.168.0.180" to "192.168.0.10" would this change affect the test? satimis
No, there was nothing wrong with the system, but you did something wrong, and telling you how to fix it would have taken longer than just reinstalling the system. Yes, skip this step for now. Later on you can use phpMyAdmin to check out which hostname is saved in the mysql.user table in the field "Host" (will be different from server1.example.com because otherwise your command would have succeeded). You don't need to create a virtual IP address. This is just an example for people that need it.
Fail to start proftpd Hi folks, Section 12 ProFTPd # /etc/init.d/proftpd start Code: Starting proftpd: - getaddrinfo 'host.satimis.com' error: Name or service not known - warning: unable to determine IP address of 'host.satimis.com' - error: no valid servers configured - Fatal: error processing configuration file '/etc/proftpd.conf' [FAILED] Pls advise how to fix it. TIA Edit-1: I fixed my problem by putting "host.satimis.com host" to replace "localhost.localdomain localhost" on /etc/hosts. Thereafter proftpd started. Edit-2 I completed the rest part according to the tutorial without problem. Tks falko for your nice howto-tutorial. Hi folks, 1) Are there documents explaining the commands on the howto-tutorial mentioned instead of googling on each command or going through the respective site of each package? Man is too brief on their explanation. 2) Is there a ISPConfig installation/config howto, other than follow; http://wiki.vpslink.com/index.php?title=ISPConfig ??? TIA A further thought - ispconfig vs ravencore http://www.ravencore.com/ What will be your opinion? B.R. satimis
