Re: ISO IMAGES
Hi. Will ISO images be released for 5.2-BETA i386? Or is that strictly an -RC thing? Ftp'ed to ftp.freebsd.org using a freebsd-ftp-client but couldn't find the ISO-image for 5.2 beta. Using OS X's finder found the folder and files. Peculiar. Permissions? regards Claus Yahoo!

Re: FreeBSD current, apache and php4 woes
Hi. panic: kmem_malloc(4096): kmem_map too small: 275251200 total allocated cpuid = 0; lapic.id = You'll either want to raise the size of the kmem_map pool or decrease the maximum number of vnodes allowed (vnodes get allocated out of the kmem_map and are likely depleating it Add one of the two lines to /boot/loader.conf: kern.vn.kmem.size=35000 or kern.maxvnodes=15 The first one is probably the better choice for you since the very nature of what you are doing demands that you touch a lot of vnodes. Scott It seems that your advice helpted cure the patient. I did two things: 1. added kern.vm.kmem.size=45000 2. clean up tmp-files older than 4 hours every hour (previous was files older than 12 h.). Now the servers has been quite stable, no reboot in almost two days! My problem appears to be too many files in /tmp and /var/tmp (50.000 or more) which made the kernel puke. I guess this is a scenario which we will see more often. Would it be possible to output this situation to the message-log before the server simply reboots? I did install 4.9 but in my particular case the server would stop responding to web-request after a few hours, but would respond to ping. Console login was imposible. So 5.1 is more mature in my case. The last two weeks have been _very_ frustrating. ;-) Claus Yahoo!

So you might want to set a hard limit on it so you don't continue to run into problems. A value of 200,000 is probably good in your case. A sysctl kern.maxvnodes gives me 134675, but it's been added as a safetyprecaution to /boot/loader.conf. regards Claus Yahoo!

FreeBSD current, apache and php4 woes
Hi. I'm getting a bit desperate here. I recently moved our web-servers from Linux, php4 4.1 and apache 1.3.20 to FreeBSD 5.1 (mostly frozen branch), php 4.3.4 and apache 1.3.29. My problem is that the web-servers keep rebooting for no apperant reason. They are up for about 20-24 hours and then go down and up, with no message in the message-log (other than that the filesystems weren't unmounted properly etc. The two web-servers are Dell Poweredge 1750 with dual Xeon @ 3 Ghz. One is running the frozen 5.1 and the other is running current as of Nov. 9'th. They are performing well, the latter a bit faster than the former. Both have 2 GB RAM. The two other web-servers are based on an ASUS motherboard and have dual Xeons @ 2.4 Ggz. One is running frozen branch and one is running current as of Oct. 30'th. The first has 2 GB RAM and the latter 1 GB. The server with Oct. 30'th source appears to be the most stable having been up for a couple of days. After a draft to this mail was written I was lucky to get some output to the screen (which is the first time since we migrated): panic: kmem_malloc(4096): kmem_map too small: 275251200 total allocated cpuid = 0; lapic.id = Searching the archives indicated that the thread http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=717480+728561+/usr/local/www/db/text/2003/freebsd-current/20031005.freebsd-current was very like my situation. We are using php and imagemagick and are getting a lot of empty files related to our web-pages. So /tmp and /var/tmp is often used. I have a crontjob which clean files older than 12 hours. The two Dell-servers rebooted last nigth at three o'clock in the morning indicating that the /etc/periodic/daily scripts were running. I have also been able to provoke a reboot finding and deleting lots of tmp-files. The problems did not show up while we tested them internally. How do I change system/kernel-parameters so I can avoid the reboots? If I had the time I could have investigated more on my own but my FreeBSD-migration is on a thin line at work. Disabling SMP is not an option. I made the transition from Linux to FreeBSD arguing that 1) it was at least as stable as Linux 2) I was the one going to maintain the servers. So FreeBSD is (unfortunately) _not_ very hot @ work. A dmesg can be supplied if needed. Regards Claus Yahoo!

Re: FreeBSD current, apache and php4 woes
Hi. panic: kmem_malloc(4096): kmem_map too small: 275251200 total allocated cpuid = 0; lapic.id = man tuning You probably need to reset maxusers to 128 or so manually since the auto-tuning is doing the wrong thing. Although this is usually a problem on 4GB systems. I'll try to adjust it manually. You aren't running any wierd nmbclusters/nmbufs values, are you? Just a straight install and custom-kernel reg.

Re: Still getting NFS client locking up
Hi. I can lock the NFS server up every time simply by mounting the nfs partition (i'm using -t for tcp nfs and exporting with -maproot=0:0), and then running iozone -a on the nfs client box. It takes a while, but the 4.9-RELEASE box will always lock up solid eventually. Not good. )-: Could you show /etc/exports on the server and /etc/fstab on the client? Have you tried udp instead of tcp? regards Claus Yahoo!

Re: New interrupt stuff breaks ASUS 2 CPU system
Hi. I have an ASUS system with 2 CPUs that I need to run at HZ=1. This worked until yesterday, but with the new interrupt code it doesn't boot anymore. It works for the standard HZ, but if I set HZ=1000 I get a double Compiled a new kernel with source from Nov. 3'rd where SMP and APIC had to be enabled to use SMP. A make kernel would complete in 10 min's. So I cvsupped to test the 'interrupt stuff' and recompiled. Upon boot it seemed that it only saw one of my two Xeons at 2.4 Ghz. Hypert. was enabled as default. So I reverted to the source the day before. I also have an ASUS motherboard with an Intel 875P chipset. regards Claus Yahoo!

Re: New interrupt stuff breaks ASUS 2 CPU system
Hi. I also have an ASUS motherboard with an Intel 875P chipset. Can you post a dmesg? Note that if you want hyperthreading, you need to enable it in your BIOS. The ACPI (and soon the MPTable) drivers will not use HT CPUs unless HT is enabled in the BIOS. My test machines with HT used the 865 chipset. Upon boot the screen says that it's a dual Xeon with HT. I downgraded the server before I read this thread, so it's running the previous days src. I guess that a dmesg won't help from that. regards Claus Yahoo!

Re: Problems with NFS (client) under 5.1.
hi. Does Linux do NFSv3 yet? I thought that at least until recently there were stability issues and it was recommended it not be used. I had some problems with stale NFS handle when NFS-mounting two FreeBSD 5.1 client (one with the frozen 5.1 and one as of Oct. 10'th) to a Linux server with ReiserFS. When I mounted with ver. 2 the problems went away on the FreeBSD with source from Oct. 10'th and have less stale NFS handles with the frozen 5.1. regards Claus Yahoo!

nfs mounts on FreeBSD 5.1
Hi. I'm trying to nfs-mount a FreeBSD 5.1 client on a Redhat 7.3 nfs-server. I have the line nfs_client_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf and nfsclient.ko is loaded. The error I get is [udp] nfs-srv:/mount/a: RPCMNT: clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered The mount-command is mount_nfs -o port=2049 nfs-srv:/mount/a /mount/a I've tried nfs v.2 and 3 as options, but no change. The Linux-server is accepting nfs-mount-requests from other clients so the server itself is OK.

Re: error in ncurses in 'make buildworld'
Hi. What -O level did you compile libc with? Optimisation levels = 2 damage __vfprintf() with the in-tree gcc, causing these same symptoms. The fix is to remove any optimisation options above -O, go into /usr/src/lib/libc, rebuild and install the static libc.a, build and install a static linked awk binary, then rebuild world + kernel as usual. With this advise my 'make world' and 'make kernel' completed without any errors. Thank you.
