1. == When logging into CentOS 7 indigo, I see an error: “WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! ………….Add correct host key in $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message .. What should I do? ==

This error occurs because indigo has a new SSH host key. Please edit your “known_hosts” file on your local system, and remove entries relating to indigo (indigo,indigo.eecs.yorku.ca,eecs.yorku.ca). Now you will be able to login without the warning.

At jobs and cron jobs are not transferred between systems. You will need to recreate your at and cron jobs on the new system.

Remove the file ~/.vnc/xstartup in your home directory, then restart vncserver on indigo. A new .vnc/xstartup file will be created, and you will now be able to connect with vncviewer. The old file which was created with the older vncserver is no longer compatible with the system setup.

The local version of the svn command (/eecs/local/bin/svn) was compiled with CentOS 6, and this linked to an older version of a dynamic library (libsasl2.so.2) which has been updated on CentOS 7. This is fixed temporarily on indigo. However, /usr/bin/svn client (the one provided by the OS) will also work in the meantime.

/setup: error while loading shared libraries: libgmp.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

/eecs/home/sel/script/script which is using a haskell file setup.hs

Paul Recommended Can you trying setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and running your grading scripts.

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /eecs/local/lib64

The GNU Fortran compiler f77 has been renamed to gfortran under CentOS 7. f77 version was 3.4.6. gfortran version is 4.8.5.

This occurred because the .xsession was not set to the current default Contained “exec /cs/local/share/system.xfce”. Updated to the default(~template/.xsession) Many users still have this old profile which will need updating

You may be using an old ~/.Xresources file . Please mv .Xresources .Xresources.old
