RH 7.2 - Installing and configureing openssl, modssl, apache, and php
by Aramico
Hi all, I've got a problem.....
And this not a kind of beginner's problem.......
Actually I'm developing a server with this defined need such as openssl, modssl, apache, and php.
The problem is.....
I've done these listed on my attachement step to install all my need....
--------------------------------------------------------
The results are like these both bellow......
1. apache, php and its need runs well, but modssl and ssl are not workin'... ;(
2. apache with modssl is wrokin' fine, but the apache could not understand the php's need.......
So, what is the correct step to get what i want....
What i want is only get apache, openssl,modssl,postgresql, and php's need installed.......
Thanx.........

microphone
by Wesley Allen
Hi gang, any ideas why my microphone wouldn't be working in linux. It's
set as the recording device, but isn't recording.
My sound card uses the maestro3 module (ES1988 Allegro-1 card). I'm
doing a search, but was wondering if any of you have had this problem.

Hi Marc,
I'll do that. I'll install Xvfb and follow your instructions and will keep
you informed on the results.
Thank you for your patience and your help.

Do "rpm -V packagename" to see if it is broken, or "rpm -Va" to check
all packages.
To reinstall packages, use "rpm -ivh --replacepkgs package1.rpm package2.rpm ..."

RE: [Wlug] Newbie to mailing list- Issue with the generation of graphsinredhat6.2
by Marc Hughes
So you're saying that you can use X on the machine, right? If so, I'd look other places for the problem.
Double check that your DISPLAY is set properly and access is enabled. This was the exact same error message I used to get when java couldn't connect to the xserver.
I find doing something like this:
nohup Xvfb :1 -screen 0 800x600x24 &
sleep 5
export DISPLAY=localhost:1
xhost +
SERVERCOMMAND <- (Whatever you need to do to start the server)
Is best since it uses a virtual x server instead of the real one. This works around your problem, but is probably the "correct" way to do it anyways.

Hi Marc,
The KDE for the server was not working for it so I fixed it, removing all
the rpms and re-installing them, I even reinstalled "gd".So I was wondering
if any other libraries related to X-server were broken too.
My output for
$ps auwx | grep X is as below
root 14500 0.0 0.0 2220 980 tty1 S 09:44 0:00 /bin/sh
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx
root 14507 0.0 0.0 2344 668 tty1 S 09:44 0:00 xinit
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc --
root 14508 0.7 0.3 18156 7956 ? S< 09:44 1:07 /etc/X11/X :0
I'd appreciate your suggestions and comments in this regard.
Thanks,
Peram

RE: [Wlug] Newbie to mailing list- Issue with the generation of graphs inredhat6.2
by Sudhaker P
Hi Marc,
The KDE for the server was not working for it so I fixed it, removing all
the rpms and re-installing them, I even reinstalled "gd".So I was wondering
if any other libraries related to X-server were broken too.
My output for
$ps auwx | grep X is as below
root 14500 0.0 0.0 2220 980 tty1 S 09:44 0:00 /bin/sh
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx
root 14507 0.0 0.0 2344 668 tty1 S 09:44 0:00 xinit
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc --
root 14508 0.7 0.3 18156 7956 ? S< 09:44 1:07 /etc/X11/X :0
I'd appreciate your suggestions and comments in this regard.
Thanks,
Peram

Thanks for usb help
by Wes Allen
Hi all,
Thanks to everyone who tried to help me with my usb problems, it's always a
pain when you know WHAT is wrong, but you don't know how to FIX it.
Today I went to compUSA got their cheap-o usb2.0 cardbus card for $50, took
it home and installed it. IT WORKS. So, when the next kernel fixes this
apic promlem I'll have my 2 usb 1.1 ports AND 2 usb2.0 ports as well. I love
linux sometimes, well, most times really.
Wes

As a side note, for you Matrix fans out there, so guy has a whole fortunes
file that's matrix quotes (I know cause I have it installed...)

FYI: fortune has 2 files, the text file, and a "database" dat file which
specifies how many fortunes there are, what offsets in the text file
they're at, etc, etc. If you only edit the text file, fortune will get
very confused.
doing a "man strfile" will help you out. I also wrote a perl version
(for the perl power tools project) which you can find on their website
(do a google search for "perl power tools"...)
