    New hybrid centos 6 kernel for centos 5

    Running centos 5 and just installed hybrid kernel 2.6.32.
    We now get this hourly mail from cron:

    > /etc/cron.hourly/mcelog.cron:
    > mcelog: warning: record length longer than expected. Consider update

    #yum update , nothing to do,
    Suggestions?

    mcelog installed by yum does not support more recent kernels, maybe clouldlinux should provide/update mcelog to be compatible with this kernel.

    We fixed this on servers running more recent kernels that we compiled ourselves by installing the latest version of mcelog.

    Wait for Cloudlinuxs answer as I think they should provide a solution for this, but this is how we fixed it :

    Check version : mcelog --version

    Go to : http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/cpu/mce/

    (seems to be down at the time being or folder mce is empty…)

    wget URL to latest version

    make
    make install

    Check new version :

    mcelog --version

      Hi Richard,
      Thanks for your input
      Were going to wait ( as you suggest) for CL reply. Looking around for answers to this problem, some suggest downgrading mcleg to an older version or compiling from source, though we will try your option first is CL don respond soon.
