Kernel update named errors

j0ney3 · Unread post by **j0ney3** » Wed Dec 05, 2007 3:32 pm

Hey,

I just did the kernel update (I think it was an ASL kernel), php & mysql last night and am now pretty much locked out my box b/c the network interfaces aren't coming up.

Bringing up interface eth0: [OK]
Bringing up interface eth1: cannot change name of eth0 to eth1: Device or resource busy, Device eth1 has differenc MAC address than expected, ignoring.

[FAILED]

Could this have something to do w/ named and the bind-chroot/Plesk problem? I've not been able to get access to the box yet as the hosting company is putting an IP KVM switch in it now.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

It could, which kernel are you using? You can see with the output from:

uname -a

Well, I got it to boot up using:
vmlinuz-2.6.19-7.art

The kernel that won't boot is:
vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-3.art

However, I notice that:
rpm -qa | grep bind output shows:
bind-chroot-9.2.4-27.0.1.el4

Should I remove this?

Thanks again, I really appreciate all the help on this forum and ASL

Yes definitely, you don't need that package (bind-chroot) with PSA. They've had a long outstanding bug with PSA running with that package.

Ok, removed. Looking at messages, I see pages and pages and pages of:

I'm guessing this has something to do w/ the load shooting up to 900 using the new kernel

You know, Ive seen that exact same thing before when I think udev gets lost. That is what is driving the load up, can you email support about it? support@atomicorp.com. Im traveling all day today so I won't be able to get to it.
