[opensuse] (Strange) Apache Virtual Host Behaviour
by CHONG Yu Meng 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

Hi all, So, I setup Apache on my OpenSUSE 11.4 server at home, wanting to experiment with several php and perl apps (hence the Virtual Hosting config), when I found some strange behaviour with Virtual Hosting. I have a default configuration in Apache which I can access using hostorig.domain.tld (not the real name of course). I create a Virtual Host, host1.domain.tld and put an index.html inside. It works, so far so good. Ok, now, I add another Virtual Host, host2.domain.tld, and things start to get strange. When I open a browser and go to "http://hostorig", I get "http://host1" instead. "http://host1" still points to the right place, and "http://host2" point to the right place too. A bit of Googling around leads me to a site that says that the order of the <VirtualHost> stanzas is significant. If Apache does not understand which Virtual Host the user is requesting, it will default to the first <VirtualHost> declaration. Now, in OpenSUSE, the order of the Virtual Hosts is not so clear because they are all contained in separate .conf files inside /etc/apache2/vhost.d. If I wanted one of the Virtual Hosts here to be the "first" Virtual Host declared, what do I do? Since this is a home setup, it's not really that important, but it is annoying me like crazy. If anyone here can give me any information on why all this is happening and how I can setup a Virtual Host that Apache will "default" to when it doesn't understand the destination (or just setup Virtual Hosts better), please help! Thanks in Advance, pascal chong -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Confused by K-9 on android
by Greg Freemyer 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

All, Very intentional top-post. In K-9 I created the below email as a response to a question on the factory list. (I only use K-9 for posting to mailing lists, so not that often.) In K-9's email listing, the below appears as one e-mail and all is good. But when I change to the google provided gmail app, the below shows up as 3 different emails. The first has about a third of the below edited in. Then the second has that third, plus a third more. And the third one is the below final email. I only hit send once and again, K-9 shows it as only one email. What is going on?

[opensuse] firefox 7 preferences -> Startup -> "Show my app tabs"
by David C. Rankin 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

All, Wolfgang R., A recent FF 7.0.1 crash forced my back through my preferences to set up my home pages again. For some reason when it crashed, it lost the preference?? Looking at the Preferences -> Startup -> Show my XYZ setting, there needs to be an option to: "Show my app tabs" which would allow FF to start with your pinned tabs as your home pages shown on startup. I do like the "use current pages" option that allows multiple pages to be specified separated by a pipe, but if you pin the pages you want to open and then select "use current pages" FF reopens your pinned apps AND also opens a second copy of your pinned apps 'unpinned' as well. There is no need to open 2 sets of the same pages (pinned and unpinned). Wolfgang, you hear of anything in the work that would fix that? -- David C.

[opensuse] greeter text

Updating with a new kernel always shows the text that it looking for the old greeter text and decides, it is not there. How and where can edit a greeter text.

[opensuse] kmail and dovecot
by eddie 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

Hi All I am using dovecot 2.0.13 and kmail 1.13.6. I'm having difficult accessing the inbox on the email server. If I log out of my account and then back in again, I can start kmail and access my inbox. A few minutes later there is a message that kmail has lost connection with the server and the only way back in to the inbox is to log out and in again. I have my mobile phone connected to the server and it seems to have no problem accessing the inbox. So I believe that it is something to do with kmail. I am using tls. When I telnet to port 143, it connects and says that the server is ready. However, in kmail (which is set to port 143) it just hangs with the message "Retrieving Folder Contents Please wait . . ." Oh and one other thing, the server and my desktop account are running on the same machine. Has anyone got any ideas what is wrong? I'd be grateful for any assistance. Many thanks Eddie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Tearing my hear out - mail server malfunction
by Rodney Baker 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

Hi all. I run a local mail server with a fairly standard setup: Fetchmail -> sendmail ->procmail -> spamd -> Maildir -> dovecot IMAP. Everything worked fine until around 1345 local time Sunday. Ever since then, fetchmail has been dumping all mail into /var/spool/mail/<username> and there it stays. The rest of the chain isn't firing. procmail is configured to write to a log file in my home directory (pm.log) and that is not being written. Nothing has been written to /var/log/mail since August 28th (when I upgraded to oS 11.4) so that is no help. I have tried logging out of KDE and even restarting the machine (which I rarely do - uptimes of >180 days are not uncommon) but to no avail. I'm completely stumped as to why it was working fine and then suddenly stopped with no intervention. I haven't even installed any updates in the last week or so. I'd appreciate any pointers as to where to look next. Fetchmail is working fine, as I said, but nothing gets past /var/spool/mail/<username>. When it was working fine, nothing went into this directory, let alone stayed there. What has broken and why? (Yes, I know that is an almost impossible question but at least if I knew where to look it would help). ps -eaf | grep 'mail' says: root 4501 1 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:01 sendmail: accepting connections 110 5765 1 0 18:22 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/fetchmail -d 90 -a -f /etc/fetchmailrc -L /var/log/fetchmail user 6023 5805 0 18:33 pts/0 00:00:00 grep mail mail 8214 1 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: Queue control mail 8215 8214 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:01 sendmail: running queue: /var/spool/clientmqueue use> 17700 17663 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/akonadi_maildir_resource --identifier akonadi_maildir_resource_0 user 17701 17663 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/akonadi_maildispatcher_agent --identifier akonadi_maildispatcher_agent user 21579 1 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:40 /usr/bin/kmail -caption KMail user 21580 17538 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:05 kdeinit4: kio_imap4 [kdeinit] imap local:/tmp/ksocket-user/klauncherT17539.slave-socket local:/tmp/ksocket- user/kmaile21579.slave-socket user 21581 17538 0 Oct09 ? 00:00:01 kdeinit4: kio_imap4 [kdeinit] imap local:/tmp/ksocket-user/klauncherT17539.slave-socket local:/tmp/ksocket- user/kmaily21579.slave-socket Thanks in advance, Rodney. -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker(a)iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
