OpenSSL is included in FreeBSD in the base system.  The port you're
trying to install requires a newer version of OpenSSL than what's in the
base system.

You need to define WITH_OPENSSL_BASE=yes in your /etc/make.conf.  This
should make the port build/install successfully, and will overwrite
the OpenSSL installation in the base system.

You will also need to set WITHOUT_OPENSSL=true in /etc/src.conf
(assuming this is FreeBSD 7.x), to ensure the next time you
build/install world, that you do not bother building the base version
of OpenSSL, and instead continue to rely on the port version.

One other thing I forgot to mention:

You will need to rebuild all ports reliant on SSL (this may be hard to
determine reliably), as well as all base system utilities reliant on SSL
(make world will suffice for this), as there will very likely be a
library version mismatch between the old base OpenSSL and the port
version of OpenSSL.

There's a chance you won't have to do this (I installed the port like
you said and everything still works), but I would recommend you not
take any chances.

 freebsd is yet another kernel for which the VirtualBox devs would have
 to figure out how to safely achieve a few things normal applications
 don't ever need. Like dealing with physical memory, getting along with
 the scheduler and stuff like that. It's also true that the written
 documentation in VirtualBox about this area leaves something to be
 desired - again a manpower problem.
 It is easy for me as an outsider to see that this can be viewed from
 the opposite angle:
 VirtualBox is just another virtualization solution for FreeBSD. We
 are sorry that the VirtualBox team can't find any time to provide the
 necessary documentation. Currently FreeBSD don't have any developers
 with enough free time to figure things out from the documentation
 available now. You see - it is simply a manpower problem.

I think you could better ask for help on [EMAIL PROTECTED] as there
aren't too many kernel developers reading ports@ is guess.

 Recently, I need to upgrade clamav version from 0.92 to 0.94 (latest

The procedure used (from the original mail):

 1. run make deinstall to deinstall the clamav version of 0.92
 2. Modify /usr/ports-supfile  (to make sure security port can be download
 from a correct default host)
 *default host=ftp.tw.freebsd.org

  That is not a good idea, I think.

 3. cd /usr ; run cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile
 4. check /usr/port/security/clamav port is updated
 5. cd /usr/port/security/clamav
 6. run make install clean

 There is no error message found in the whole process, however, I cannot find
 the file of clamd, clamscan  freshclam.
 The previous version of these file can be found in /usr/local/sbin and
 /usr/local/bin
 
 After redo the upgrade process, I find there are some files under
 /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin but the file name is differenet.

 Are these files are the same as the file of clamd, freshclam and
 clamscan. If yes, can I create symbolic link for these file so that I can
 keep my old setting? (i.e run /usr/local/sbin/clamd -c
 /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf,   and run /usr/local/bin/freshclam --quiet in
 the cronjob). How many configuration files location should I change ?
 
Yes, these files are the same. You have run into this problem because you
have not updated the whole tree, namely ports/Mk* directory. There was
a change which is responsible for fixing these ugly names.
FWIW, from the /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile:

# These are the individual collections that make up ports-all.  If you
# use these, be sure to comment out ports-all above.
#
# Be sure to ALWAYS cvsup the ports-base collection if you use any of the
# other individual collections below. ports-base is a mandatory collection
# for the ports collection, and your ports may not build correctly if it
# is not kept up to date.
#ports-base

Good luck!

Hello everybody!

Yesterday Qt 4.4.2 was released, area51 is
already updated, and I would like some testers
before we commit it to the Ports tree after the
freeze.

You can find the changelog here:
http://trolltech.com/developer/resources/notes/changes/changes-4.4.2

Note on area51:
You now need subversion to checkout area51,

svn co https://kf.athame.co.uk/kde-freebsd/trunk/area51

Happy Testing.

Hi Oliver,

I currently have a local working installation of TeXLive. However, there
are a few problems which prevent me to commit the port to the ports tree.

I am planning to gather feedback and do something about it in the near
future, so stay tuned :)

This same problem happened with another user, and the cause was his ports

update all autotools ports (automake, autoconf, libtool) and rebuild clamav.

Okay.  So I followed the instructions on updating at 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/port-upgrading.html,
 and during the process updated the checksum file with 'make makesum' and ran 
the suggested install/deinstall/reinstall/etc tests. Everything worked fine, so 
I sent in the result of 'diff -ruN vee.bak vee' in through send-pr.

So is that about it? Also, I mentioned in the report that I'd like to be the 
maintainer for the port, but would like to reiterate it.

Thanks - this was pretty fun and the replies I got were very helpful.

Cheers,
Brett

   I am interested in getting the latest version into ports, and am
   willing to become port maintainer for it - if someone would kindly
   point me to the documentation describing how to do such a thing.
   
   The vee site is: http://www.0x743.com/vee/
  
  http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html
  
  Also, reading through /usr/ports/Mk/* is a good idea if you ever get
  stuck.
  
  Lastly, this list is also helpful in case you have questions that are

Provided it passes the tests that a committer will put your update
through, then yes.  We are currently in a freeze for the upcoming
releases so please be patient as the kind of update you have prepared
will have to wait until the tree is thawed.

Your welcome, and welcome to the club.  :)

Does anyone know nginx's www path

2008-09-19 Thread matt donovan
Since I am trying to get this setup for a developer machine and I can't get
to the default index.html. and it seems that the pid file is not created
either with the port. All I get with a default nginx install is a 404 error
