 Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
 and never get to the software part.

This is PHP5 port issue.

Now I got it working by editing /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini by hand.

*sigh*

/usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini

remote startup scripts

2008-03-01 Thread Björn König
Hello,

I have a setup where /usr/local is actually not a local file system. It's
NFS. My problem is that the initialization scripts doesn't seem to
consider that startup scripts could be remote. Am I right or are there
options that I missed yet?

Please don't tell me that /usr/local is intended for local files. Imagine
that you have /usr/remote additionally.

ndis0 panic when ifconfig inet IP address

2008-03-01 Thread Glenn
I have just upgraded my Asus A2 notebook from 6.1 to FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE
#0 by doing a full clean install. (completely repartitioned my disc
prior to installing)

This notebook uses the Broadcom bcmwl5 wireless drivers which worked
faultlessly using ndis on 6.1

I can kldload ndis and driver bcmwl5_sys without a problem. 

However the system panics anytime that I try to config the ip address
either through rc.conf or directly e.g. ifconfig ndis inet 192.168.0.5
netmask 255.255.255.0

Got the error on the GENERIC kernel plus my own built kernel

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
fault virtual address = 0x0
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
instructor pointer = 0x20:0xc0a464f8
stack pointer = 0x28:0xcbfd8b04
frame pointer = 0x28:0xcbfd8b3c
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0xib

processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0

Any idea what the problem may be?

Hi,

simply try 4.11-RELEASE ports.tgz
ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/i386/4.11-RELEASE/ports/ports.tgz

I doubt that any newer ports will work on that historic release.

Oh well.  Another beautiful theory destroyed by ugly facts.  Actually,
I think something like lorder(1) is the right answer here, but it needs
rather different semantics to the way lorder(1) has been traditionally used
-- hence the rather kludgy step of reversing the final order with 'tail -r'.

Something to think about in my copious free time, I suppose.  Thank you very
much indeed for testing though.

freebsd-update upgrade problem

2008-03-01 Thread Manolis Kiagias

Hi,

I have already upgraded a couple of machines from 7.0-RC1/2 to 
7.0-RELEASE using:


freebsd-update -r 7.0-RELEASE upgrade

However, on this one machine, I get this:

freebsd-update: cannot open files/.gz: No such file or directory

I checked free space on the root partition, no problem there. I also 
deleted and recreated /var/db/freebsd-update, to no avail.
I am quite baffled, the machine is more or less the same with the ones 
that upgraded without a hitch. I googled for this and found essentially 
nothing - two people having the same problem, but no answers.


Any ideas?

 Ironically the latest server I got last night has a intel pro 1000 a rarity :)
 
 I am just giving feedback as when I speak to people in the datacentre
 and hosting business the biggest gripe with freebsd is hardware
 compatability, as I adore freebsd I ignore this and work round it but
 its defenitly reducing take up.
 
 Of course I know current re issues are getting attention which I am
 thankful for, I fully understand the time and effort required to write
 drivers patches etc. and have got no critisicms for the people who do
 this my complaint is more focused on people claiming there is no
 issues its just the hardware.
 

Pyun YongHyeon has fixed a lot of driver issues (i.e. re(4), bfr(4), vr(4))
over the last few months, many are already in CURRENT or RELENG_7 (not
sure how many of them made it into 7.0-RELEASE) or posted as patches
to the current@ mailing list.

If you have problems, please see if they persist with a CURRENT snapshot.
If they do, please post to the current@ mailing list with details.

   Yes, i did everything it recomends. Tahnk you

  How to rule out the raid:
  1) create a memory disk, in your case I'd go with 256MB if you can spare the
  memory.
  2) Put a file on it, size ~210MB (7 * 30MB/s, should give ample time to let
  the transferrate go up)
  3) share it via samba
  4) Download it through one of the clients

  If the transfer rate is still low, it's not the raid. Install a bandwidth
  monitor then (net/bmon for example) and see if the traffic is actually higher
  then the 30MB/s, eating the rest of your bandwidth, investigate samba issues,
  switches, clients (are they really configured Gbit?).

  If the transfer rate is much higher, you're pretty safe to assume it's a disk
  issue.

  Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
 and never get to the software part.


Hi:

I made the test today and i got awesome results. One of my harddrives
(RAID 1 ) goes offline. I made the test with only 1 disk trasfering a
1.7GB file trought FTP and samba. Samba got about 24mb/s and ftp got
about 45mb/s from the single disk both. Samba takes the twice the time
than ftp, it is my bottleneck anyone has any patch/suggestion to improve
the samba performance on freebsd?

Thanks :)

timidity++

2008-03-01 Thread pjd

Hi I'm trying to set timidity++ up so I can play a game in wine using midi
files.

I have set it up before on linux which goes something like 1)install 2)run
timidity -iA
This has two problems on for me:
1) the -iA option is for ALSA, which isn't freebsd native so the timidity++
port compiles ALSA support out, how do I get it to work with OSS?
2) how, on freebsd, do I get this to start automatically on boot-up?

Any answers would be appreciated.

  Hmmm...
 
  I've been thinking about methods to make sure the load order of PHP
  modules avoids this sort of problem.  Can you try the following and
  see if it helps?
 
# cp /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini{,.bak}
# cd /usr/local/lib/php/20060613
# lorder *.so | tsort | tail -r | sed -e 's/^/extension=/'

  Oh, and yes, you do need the php5-spl module to be installed.

  I'm pretty sure ale@ would've thought of that, if it did work.
 
  It's all trial and error and I haven't found any 100% working logic to
  it.

 Oh well.  Another beautiful theory destroyed by ugly facts.  Actually,
 I think something like lorder(1) is the right answer here, but it needs
 rather different semantics to the way lorder(1) has been traditionally used
 -- hence the rather kludgy step of reversing the final order with 'tail
 -r'.

 Something to think about in my copious free time, I suppose.  Thank you
 very much indeed for testing though.

Lorder just checks if lib a calls a function from lib b, but the problem is in 
the zend engine module shutdown code, where it tells a module to free it's 
globals. So it's not just the undefined symbol problem you have to deal with, 
(which lorder as you described would indeed fix things), but also that 
resources are being freed in correct order.

It seems to be a more general problem of FreeBSD's dlopen(), since 
multimedia/transcode suffers from the same issues.
However, both the Zend Engine and the transcode code, are so heavily 
typedeffed, macroed and comments-lacking, I get lost and frustrated before I 
can even begin to understand the logic of the code :p

Re: Upgrading a removable disk installation

2008-03-01 Thread Giorgos Keramidas
On 2008-02-29 09:46, Steve Bertrand [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Hi all,

 I have a couple of systems that run from USB thumb sticks. These machines
 run 6.2.

 I'd like to do a typical source upgrade to 7.0 on a test machine.

 To do this, I plug the USB disk into a 'host' machine, and to save space on
 the thumb drive, I csup the sources to the standard locations on the host
 machine.

 My thumb drive 'OS' slice is mounted as /var/removable-os on the host
 machine.

 What I am unclear about is how I go about telling buildworld etc on the
 host machine. that I want to install the updates to the /var/removable-os
 location, instead of the default '/'.

It should be easy to use DESTDIR for this.  I regularly update my USB
flash installation using the DESTDIR support of our Makefiles and the
following (a slightly modified version of the process described by
Warner Losh imp at FreeBSD.org in a series of excellent blog posts at
his weblog).

The commands below use sh(1) syntax, but it should be easy to `port'
them to csh(1) too:

  # cd /usr/src
  # export MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX='/ws/obj/bsd.i836'
  # export TARGET='i386'
  # export TARGET_ARCH='i386'
  # make buildworld
  # make buildkernel KERNCONF=KERAMIDA
  # fdisk -I da0
  # fdisk -B da0
  # bsdlabel -w da0s1 auto
  # bsdlabel -B da0s1
  # newfs -L USBROOT /dev/da0s1a
  # mount /dev/da0s1a /mnt
  # make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt
  # make installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt KERNCONF=KERAMIDA INSTALL_NODEBUG=t
  # make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=/mnt
  # make distribution DESTDIR=/mnt
  # echo /dev/ufs/USBROOT / ufs rw 1 1  /mnt/etc/fstab
  # echo ifconfig_DEFAULT=DHCP  /mnt/etc/rc.conf
  # echo 'hostname=demo'  /mnt/etc/rc.conf

As long as you have a base system which can buildworld for the target
version/release, this should work.

Notes
*

You can obviously skip the change for `MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX', `TARGET' and
`TARGET_ARCH', if you are building the same version  architecture for
the USB flash disk.

I usually customize `GENERIC', but you can use `KERNCONF=GENERIC' where
I have used `KERNCONF=KERAMIDA' above.

IIRC DST dates were changed last year and patches made for 6.x and 
CURRENT. I suppose these where not merged to the legacy branches.


You can try zone files for a newer version, see if it works - or maybe 
while you're at it consider upgrading.

Booting from Memory Stick

Would it be possible to install the operating system using the following:

cd /usr/src

Or, is there an easier way to do this?

--delete makes sure that if you delete a file on the source, it's also 
deleted on the mirror.


(Tip for those that use rsync to backup Windows machines to FreeBSD - 
You will most likely have to use --ignore-errors if you are syncing 
to/from windows machines with --delete.)


Just my nickels worth.

I don't know how to do this myself, but know it is available using FreeNAS,

dependencies in portmaster

2008-03-01 Thread perryh
I am trying to figure out what-all would happen if I were to install
a particular port.  IOW I want to do something like

  # portmaster {some set of options} name-of-port

and have it report something along the lines of

  name-of-port vn #.## requires:
port  status
  --
dependency-1  OK
dependency-2  need vn 2.22, current 1.05
dependency-3  not installed
...

  dependency-2 vn 2.22 requires:
port  status
  --
dependency-4  OK
dependency-5  need vn 5.03, current 4.57
...

  dependency-3 vn #.## requires:
port  status
  --
dependency-6  not installed

  ...

I do not want it to actually build or install anything.

If I am understanding the portmaster manpage correctly this is close
to what -n would do, but I don't even want it to do 'make config' --
I just want a report of what would have to be added or upgraded in
order to install the port in question.  (I imagine portmaster has
to already be collecting this sort of information internally, the
question is how to get it reported externally.)

BTW I am looking for a solution that does not involve portupgrade,
because I do not have portupgrade installed and before attempting
to install it I would want to see this sort of report regarding it.

Yes, you do.
Because make config determines the dependencies.

If speed is what you're worried about, then first do:
make config-recursive

in the port you want to investigate, then do portmaster -n - OR,
specify BATCH=yes and PACKAGE_BUILDING=yes to portmaster as make flags. But 
note that that will accept a set of default options, as defined by the port 
maintainer.

 --delete makes sure that if you delete a file on the source, it's also
 deleted on the mirror.

 (Tip for those that use rsync to backup Windows machines to FreeBSD -
 You will most likely have to use --ignore-errors if you are syncing
 to/from windows machines with --delete.)

 Just my nickels worth.

Good point.  Because in addition to copying files across flavors of 'Nix, I
do want to delete the old changes.   Especially as my projects evolve.

So How Hard Is Moving From 6.3 To 7.0?

2008-03-01 Thread Tim Daneliuk

I have a stable 6.3 production server.  If I buildworld/kernel for 7.0,
install them, and reboot, will everything pretty much work the same as
it did under 6.3, or have file locations, userland configuration, etc.
changed?  Will my 6.3 binaries run unchanged on 7.0 as well?

I started using rsync with -avzp but then realized that it would not
delete the directories/files I deleted at the source *after* the backup.

That is why I added the --delete hoping that it would replicate in such
a way that both copies look identical.

Suggestions for OS to use behind freebsd pf firewalls.

I have installed freebsd server in a small company that has approx 30  
pc's of all sizes, shapes, brands, etc.  They have just realized that  
a large part of the problems that they had before the firewall was  
caused by the 30 windows pc's that were connected directly to the  
ISP's wireless router.  They would like to change the PC's to unix  
desktops.


I would like to install FreeBSD or any other bsd but don't feel that  
we have the drivers available to substitute such a wide variety of  
hardware.  I would love to be proven wrong.  Therefore I am  
considering a linux version with a graphic installer that will make it  
easier to train someone to install on any new machines that they add  
later.  My problem is that I haven't done a linux install since before  
FreeBSD 2.2 IIRC and have no idea which version would be the most  
versatile and has an installer that is basically brain dead simple  
with most all drivers.  I suspect that I am asking the impossible but  
you never know.


I'm sure that I'm not the only person to run into this situation and I

Ubuntu Linux. It's very windows-users friendly, and has a graphical
installer. It's based on Debian Linux. It also is a  LiveCD, so you
can test hardware before actually installing it to the HDD.

Tim,

I am still working on my first server migration.  I followed the 
instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING, but still had problems.  I also did a 
portupgrade -faP
to make the ports as per the release notes.  Unfortunately not all worked 
after that.


I had issues with apache22 and clamav, so I rebuilt and reinstalled both of 
those ports.  I still don't have xorg and gnome working.


So needless to say this is a much longer update process than previous 
versions.


I did NOT try the binary update from CD or the new binary update 
utility.  I believe most of the issues I have had are because of changes in 
the libraries specifically to the threads.


Oh, I started my update on Friday Morning.

I know you've gotten some other responses, but I wanted to chime in and 
say that I've done this (just today, actually) using an approach similar 
to what you're outlining. In a nutshell:

(assuming USB stick is da0, you don't care about what's on it, and you 
want to use the whole thing with one partition and no swap)

##prepare the destination disk, including boot blocks, and mount
fdisk -BI /dev/da0  #ignore the GEOM not found message
bsdlabel -wB /dev/da0s1
newfs -U -L mystick /dev/da0s1a #optional flags for softupdates and label
mount /dev/ufs/mystick /mnt

##prepare obj tree (skip if you already have one with the kernel you want)
cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make KERNCONF=MYUSBKERNEL   #or GENERIC, whatever

##install to the stick
cd /usr/src
make KERNCONF=MYUSBKERNEL DESTDIR=/mnt installkernel
make DESTDIR=/mnt installworld
mergemaster -i -D /mnt  #review list, answer yes to followup ?'s

##The only other thing that's required is an fstab file:
echo /dev/ufs/mystick / ufs rw 1 1  /mnt/etc/fstab

##and don't forget to un-mount the stick when you're done
umount /mnt

That's a bit quick and dirty, obviously, but you can boot from the stick 
and have a complete system at this point. Setup of the root password, 
users, groups, hostname, interfaces, timezone, etc not included. 
Sysinstall or manual config (either from the initial host or after 
booting from the stick) can get you the rest of the way. Or  you may 
discover that one of the other approaches suggested is easier. :)

In my experience from similar situations I would recommend OpenSUSE

is very well supported and since it is Novell who is behind the distro,
the company can provide professional support.

In general I recommend Debian over any distro, but in some rare cases
like this one, I would rather recommend OpenSUSE.

 I do not want it to actually build or install anything.

 If I am understanding the portmaster manpage correctly this is close
 to what -n would do, but I don't even want it to do 'make config' --
 I just want a report of what would have to be added or upgraded in
 order to install the port in question.  (I imagine portmaster has
 to already be collecting this sort of information internally, the
 question is how to get it reported externally.)

 BTW I am looking for a solution that does not involve portupgrade,
 because I do not have portupgrade installed and before attempting
 to install it I would want to see this sort of report regarding it.

If you truly are just looking at the dependency list and do not wish to
have make do anything, wouldn't this do the trick:

http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portdependencytree.py

I guess you would need to have an up to date ports tree for this to be
accurate.

Re: ndis0 panic when ifconfig inet IP address

2008-03-01 Thread Glenn
Update:

I wasn't able to solve the problem so resorted to installing FreeBSD 6.3
instead, and got the wireless working without any difficulty.  I guess
that some of the ndis kernel code has been changed in 7.0 that is
causing my system to panic.

Glenn

 I have just upgraded my Asus A2 notebook from 6.1 to FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE
 #0 by doing a full clean install. (completely repartitioned my disc
 prior to installing)
 
 This notebook uses the Broadcom bcmwl5 wireless drivers which worked
 faultlessly using ndis on 6.1
 
 I can kldload ndis and driver bcmwl5_sys without a problem. 
 
 However the system panics anytime that I try to config the ip address
 either through rc.conf or directly e.g. ifconfig ndis inet 192.168.0.5
 netmask 255.255.255.0
 
 Got the error on the GENERIC kernel plus my own built kernel
 
 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
 cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
 fault virtual address = 0x0
 fault code = supervisor read, page not present

Actually (a bit late) . . . if you want something that costs too much,
breaks down a lot, and never uses standard parts, you're looking for a
Jaguar circa 1990 or earlier.  I'm not sure about after that.  They sure
do look nice (Aero Glass), but there are better-looking cars out there
that don't break down all the time (like Aqua and Compiz Fusion), and
some of them even cost less.

Internet connection errors on 7.0-STABLE

2008-03-01 Thread Ken Peck
Hello, fellow FreeBSD'ers, I just yesterday did a source upgrade from
6.3-STABLE to 7.0-STABLE, but am now having problems getting back online.

I am certain this is kernel-related, as I have Internet access through a
backup copy of my 6.3 kernel, and all my other computers work fine as well.

Here is the output of uname -a

Maybe PC-BSD or Sabayon Linux. Sabayon is based on gentoo and contains
lots of proprietory drivers built in. So, if you have no problem with that maybe
you could look at Sabayon Linux too.

I would like to install FreeBSD or any other bsd but don't feel that
we have the drivers available to substitute such a wide variety of
hardware.  I would love to be proven wrong.  Therefore I am
considering a linux version with a graphic installer that will make
it easier to train someone to install on any new machines that they
add later.  My problem is that I haven't done a linux install since
before FreeBSD 2.2 IIRC and have no idea which version would be the
most versatile and has an installer that is basically brain dead
simple with most all drivers.  I suspect that I am asking the

I'm sure that I'm not the only person to run into this situation and
I would sure appreciate any suggestions.


In my experience from similar situations I would recommend OpenSUSE
from Novell, since it has to be as windows like as possible.  
OpenSUSE
is very well supported and since it is Novell who is behind the  
distro,

the company can provide professional support.

In general I recommend Debian over any distro, but in some rare cases
like this one, I would rather recommend OpenSUSE.



I would recommend investigating Ubuntu or one of it's clones (e.g.  
Xubuntu, Kubuntu). The install is brainless, they offer commercial  
support through the parent company Canonical, and they are Debian-based.


Another option would be PC-BSD or DesktopBSD as they both have very  
easy installations and will support most things that the above  
support. The only stipulation that I have run into is the standard  
trouble of Flash on BSD operating systems.

Re: dependencies in portmaster

2008-03-01 Thread perryh
 If you truly are just looking at the dependency list and do not
 wish to have make do anything, wouldn't this do the trick:

 http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portdependencytree.py

Not quite, because it doesn't show which of the dependencies
I have already got installed, and which of those would need
to be updated.

Secondly, I would have needed to know it existed :)

 I guess you would need to have an up to date ports tree for this
 to be accurate.

Not a problem in this case.  The whole point is to find out what-all
I would be stuck with building in order to build one particular port
after updating the tree a few days ago.

Why not just rebuild everything?  Because I'm not willing to attempt
a rebuild of OpenOffice -- that was a collosal PITA the first time
-- nor the xorg migration; I figure those are better accomplished by
a clean install once the Mall's 7.0 CD set is ready.
