Jade's weblog

The 64 bit server version did not work for me -- the 32 bit desktop version did.

Splits Oracle onto 600m sized files.

Then you can cat them back together

ps -ef --forest | less

sqlplus: error while loading shared libraries: /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/lib/libnnz10.so: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

solution:
root
tail -f /var/log/audit/audit.log | tee oracle.log
oracle
sqlplus / as sysdba
root
crtl c to abort the tail
audit2allow -M oracle < oracle.log
semodule -i oracle.pp
that's it

So I'm going through the annoying process of switching.

By the way, if someone from Tektonic reads this, feel free to reply by leaving a comment on this posting. :)

Jade

So I created a little script to send the email gradually (so as to not hit Gmail's filters):

> cat mysendmail
sleep 10
/usr/sbin/sendmail myemailaddress@gmail.com

Then I send it through

grep -v ^Delivered-To: /home/safe/testmbox | formail -s /home/safe/mysendmail &

Top does show nsd (Aolserver) taking up a lot of CPU. I restarted it just now.

I wrote a script that did this:

#!/bin/bash

echo

for file in *.org

do
/usr/sbin/sendmail hisemail@safe4all.org hisemail@safe4all.org < "$file"
echo "$file name";
done
exit 0


Our domain name ends in .org, so that would change if you were at a .com or otherwise.

Very nice!

During the install, the installer says that the install disks didn't work. See linux media check issue with Fedora Core 4 disks. The solution? Start up the installer with:

linux ide=nodma

I installed Fedora Core 4 last night, and found that it would periodically freeze (every ten minutes or so). I couldn't find much pattern behind it, except that subversion was usually running. Upgrading subversion did not help, however.

I'm reinstalling again this morning, running memory checks and any other sort of checks that it has. I'd really like to get this working as quickly as possible, but I also want it to not freeze..

It looks like the 3rd install disk was corrupted. I reinstalled, and thought I was fine, but after about 4 hours of use this morning (and getting a lot of things installed), it froze again.

Looks like the hard disk got corrupted a bit as well.

It turns out the swap partition was corrupted, and not mounting. I was getting my system load up to about 60, which is the highest I've ever seen.

I fixed it by using mkswap on the partition, and sudo /sbin/swapon /dev/hda5

Starting udev:
Initializing hardware... storage network audio

Sometimes it freezes there, sometimes it doesn't. Right now, I am restarting over and over and it isn't coming up. Annoying.
