postfix and selinux
by Ranjan Maitra 18 Apr '20

18 Apr '20

Hi, I have selinux enforcing and postfix for mail delivery. It turns out that postfix does not "work" if selinux is enabled (setenforce 0 selinux sets it to work again). However, I don't really want to leave selinux in disabled mode. So, I was looking around and found the following: https://linux.die.net/man/8/postfix_virtual_selinux which says that: semanage permissive -a postfix_virtual_t which allows for postfix to be permissive. Is this all that is needed? I also came across this page: https://www.bitdefender.com/support/how-to-configure-selinux-when-using-pos… but I am not sure: are these the best ways to use postfix with selinux on F31?

no file system or encrypted interface on d-bus object
by ToddAndMargo 18 Apr '20

18 Apr '20

Hi All, This is going to seem like a Windows question, but it will turn into a Fedora question. I promise. I had a customer yesterday with a brand new Lenovo P53s laptop. His old laptop died on a grand scale. I was able to remove his old hard drive and mount in on a USB3 carrier to plug into his new laptop. The drive was pretty badly corrupted and Windows 10 kept trying to index it over and over and over. So I booted into Fedora 31 from a flash drive. Now his local drive (not the bad one from the old laptop) would not mount (500GB NVMe). The error was: no file system or encrypted interface on d-bus object Huh? I was able to retrieve most of his data by copying to another USB3 flash drive, then booting back into Windows. Anyway, what the heck error message was that? And how do I work around it? I need to be able to mount drive that are installed in laptops with Fedora to recover data. Many thanks, -T

New bugzilla install - httpd error - Possibly OT
by S.Bob 17 Apr '20

All; Apologies if this is OT: I'm setting up a new VM with Bugzilla. I've done the install of prerequisites and installed bugzilla in /var/www/html/bugzilla on a CentOS 7 64bit OS. I've installed PostgreSQL 11, created the bug user, added the following to the localconfig file $db_driver = 'pg'; $db_host = 'localhost'; $db_name = 'bugs'; running ./checksetup.pl in /var/www/html/bugzilla (as root) succeeds: # ./checksetup.pl * This is Bugzilla 5.0.6 on perl 5.16.3 * Running on Linux 3.10.0-1062.18.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 17 23:49:17 UTC 2020 Checking perl modules...

Now that you have installed Bugzilla, you should visit the 'Parameters' page (linked in the footer of the Administrator account) to ensure it is set up as you wish - this includes setting the 'urlbase' option to the correct URL. checksetup.pl complete My /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file contains this: <Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks #AllowOverride None Require all granted AddHandler cgi-script .cgi Options +Indexes +ExecCGI DirectoryIndex index.cgi AllowOverride Limit </Directory> <Directory "/var/www/html/bugzilla"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks #AllowOverride None Require all granted AddHandler cgi-script .cgi Options +Indexes +ExecCGI DirectoryIndex index.cgi AllowOverride Limit </Directory> However, when I run testserver.pl from /var/www/html/bugzilla: # ./testserver.pl http://10.16.0.109/bugzilla I get this: # ./testserver.pl http://10.16.0.109/bugzilla TEST-OK Webserver is running under group id in $webservergroup.

some Rawhide feedback
by David 17 Apr '20

17 Apr '20

Today's update, went smoothly for my install of Workstation. My kernel is now: 5.7.0-0.rc1.20200414git8632e9b5645b.1.fc33 My backup kernel is: 5.7.0-0.rc1.git0.1.fc33 And my emergency kernel is the crusty old 5.7.0-0.rc0.git8.1.fc33 The only fc31 package on my install is TrouSerS. I have a new point-release of Firefox. Why out of all the packages that gets updated is Firefox the most finicky ? and requiring a reboot ? Several packages got bumped up this week from the fc32 to the fc33 category. Among them was gnucash. ( But mine is a flathub flatpak ) Cups is now fc33, except for the two packages below: cups-pk-helper.x86_64 0.2.6-9.fc32 cura-lulzbot.noarch 1:3.6.21-3.fc32 There are still some stale crusty bread lying around: gnome-themes-extra.x86_64 3.28-7.fc32 but nothing else easily noticeable. I am joking sarcastically, but about half of the lib**** packages ( dependencies ?? ) are all still fc32, which is normal at this early stage in the flow of things. All and all, I am betting Fedora 33 is going to be the best release yet. Mine boots up quickly and reliably, and has been stable since installation ( new fresh install about a week or two ago ).

Question On Mingw Binaries
by Thomas Dineen 17 Apr '20

17 Apr '20

Gentle People: I normally use CentOS7, but I was disappointed to discover that RH had removed the mingw binaries from their normal CentOS Archive. Claiming that they were out of date and full of bugs and security holes? Hmmmm? RH said to use the Fedora Mingw binaries, but did not say which ones? Should I use the F19 version because CentOS7 is based on F19? Or should I use the F28 Binaries to get the newer version (newer version prefered but not required)? Can I even use the newer version? Thank You Thomas Dineen
