Openvpn start fails on reboot
by Stephen Davies
If I reboot my F24 system, openvpn server fails to properly start but a
subsequent manual systemctl start openvpn@server does succeed.
The reboot log shows:
Mar 5 11:52:51 mustang audit: SERVICE_START pid=1 uid=0 auid=4294967295
ses=4294967295 msg='unit=openvpn@server comm="systemd"

exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed'
Mar 5 11:52:53 mustang systemd: openvpn(a)server.service: Failed with result
'exit-code'.
It looks as if the automatic start may be happening too early in the boot process.

Scriptlet errors during manual installation of Fedora 23
by Andrej Podzimek
Hi,
Because Anaconda doesn't support my usual partitioning scheme (root on Btrfs in LVM in LUKS in LVM in GPT, /boot on Btrfs, etc.), I created the entire layout manually and tried to install Fedora using dnf. The same layout works perfectly fine in ArchLinux.
I basically followed this howto, with adjustments for s/yum/dnf/ and for EFI/GPT: http://dustymabe.com/2014/05/29/manual-linux-installs-with-funky-storage-...
The initial filesystem installation (dnf install -y --releasever=23 --installroot=/mnt/sysimage filesystem) already got a few glitches of this form:
Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package filesystem
This^^^ happened to roughly half of the installed packages. I tried to proceed with the rest (i.e., to install @core @standard kernel grub2 grub2-efi sihm grub2-tools), but it failed with scriptlet errors that prevented a few key packages from getting installed at all:
error: %prein(selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-157.fc23.noarch) scriptlet failed, exit status 126
Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package selinux-policy-targeted
Packages with those errors are reported as failed after the verify step. What I tried next:
* setenforce 0
* upgrading the installation environment and/or the sysimage with dnf and rpm from rawhide
* --releasever=22 instead of 23
* ...and checking for a few other common points with this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1270663
* a plain sysimage directory with no predefined Btrfs subvolumes in it
* unmounting, remounting, checking that everything has seclabel on, no weirdness in dmesg, etc.
Well, nothing of the above helped; the error is still the same.
How can I diagnose this? Where can I dig out the exact reason why the scriptlets are failing?
Provided that Anaconda actually does some steps that I'm missing and can carry out the installation correctly, is there a way to *force* it to just accept whatever is mounted into /mnt/sysimage at the moment, without trying to make sense of it? I'm pretty sure dracut can handle my partition layout just fine, so the entire issue here is about getting the basic installation done somehow.
Theoretically I could create a simple-and-stupid layout that Anaconda can handle, proceed with the installation and reshuffle the partitions afterwards, but that's sooo cumbersome that I thought I'd first ask whether someone knows a workaround to the scriptlet problems.
Cheers,
Andrej

F25, Electrum and Trezor
by Mark
Hi
I'm testing Electrum on Fedora 25 and I'm missing the support for
hardware wallet that Electrum is supposed to have. Do I need to install
some additional package or has this feature been omitted?
Cheers

[F25] issue with SSL connexions: Failure of SSL transaction with
by Frédéric Bron
I often experience very slow internet surf. No idea where it comes
from, just that it started when I switched from opensuse to F25.
Today, I may have obtained a clue:
I normally use firefox.
Today I got the following issue:
- searched in google for "python os.path"
- clicked on the first linked https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html
- nothing happened (tried many times)
- I removed all firefox cookies and cache -> same issue
- I removed current firefox profile and created a new one -> same issue
- I tried the search on a windows computer + firefox on the same
internet connexion -> no issue
- I did the same on fedora with konqueror -> no issue
- again with konqueror -> got an error message:
"Adresse : https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html
Protocole : https
Date et heure : mercredi 22 mars 2017 16:47
Informations complémentaires : Échec de la négociation SSL avec docs.python.org"
Which means:
- again with konqueror -> error message:
"Address: https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html
Protocol: https
Date and time: Wednesday 22nd March 2017 16:47
Additionnal informations: Failure of SSL transaction with docs.python.org"
I suspect that firefox has the same error but just does nothing. What
does that mean?

System alive but can't access from the monitor
by Paolo Galtieri
Folks,
I have 2 F25 systems that have been updated today. These 2 systems
share a monitor. One system is attached via a kvm switch to the
monitor, the other system is attached via hdmi. This morning and twice
this evening a problem has started to manifest itself. This
configuration has been working fine for several years. I will call the
systems A and B, system A is attached to the monitor via hdmi, system B
via VGA. If I switch to system A for a while and then try to switch
back to system B the monitor instead of staying on VGA cycles from VGA
to DVI to HDMI and returns to system A. I can ssh into system B and
everything looks fine, i.e. things that were running under my user id
are still running, e.g. chrome and firefox. I looked at
/var/log/messages and I see this:
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopping User Manager for UID 0...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Default.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Basic System.

Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Starting Exit the Session...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Received SIGRTMIN+24 from PID 17588
(kill).
This was at the time I switched from system A to system B. Each of the
other times I saw this problem I see the same set of messages in the log
file. Can someone explain what they mean and could they be the cause of
the problem?
I see the same messages on the other system, but there they were part of
other messages related to rebooting the system.
The only way I can recover is reboot the system.
Here's my video card info:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G86 [GeForce 8500
GT] (rev a1)
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Paolo

F25 + Killer 1535 @ 1mb/s

Fellas, I noticed today, while finally getting to use the Fedora side of my
work laptop, that my wifi is running at 1MB/s on d Dell XPS 13 9550.
According to Dell this model has the Killer AC 1535 wireless chipset so
possibly just a driver issue?

Whats odd is that I Put F25 on the wifes Lenovo just Sunday night to
resolve this exact issue.

Kernel errors
by ProPAAS DBA
Hi All;
I'm running Fedora 25, KDE spin on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 4th gen.
I'm seeing errors like this on a pretty regular basis:
08:40:46 ... kernel:mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 2: Machine Check: 0 Bank
128: 0000000088282803 Message from syslogd@F25Host at Mar 31 08:40:46 ...
Any thoughts on what this might be? Do I need to start shopping for a
new machine?
Thanks in advance...

F24 system shutdown during dnf cleanup
by Robert Moskowitz
Today I was doing a dnf update and had a few things being updated and
new kernel installed.
Right when it was past cleanup messages and you are waiting for the
complete message, I lost power and for some reason the system did a
shutdown. Got that little active image Fedora shows during a shutdown.
The system restarted ok. How do I find out what the state is? What
might still need to be done? When I grep for 'kernel' in
/var/log/dnf.log I get:
Mar 30 12:38:22 SUBDEBUG drpm: spawned 19063: /usr/bin/applydeltarpm -a

/var/cache/dnf/updates-c4f1c95f64c2b794/packages/kernel-headers-4.9.17-100.fc24.x86_64.rpm
