Hint: Maybe the Makefile.local mechanism of the ports is still available. Then, you would add your += directive in a file called Makefile.local in the port's directory. As far is I know, Makefile.local is read after Makefile, so you can profit from settings done in the first mentioned place. Thanks for your hint. This worked fine.

Re: problems with a C script, exiting with signal 10
Hi,
thanks for the reply, i will have a close look at what you suggested.
The thing is that, yes, i work with arrays, pointers, mallocs and so on.
I'll try to make sure everything is initiliazed properly before being used.
Thanks for the advice.
En/na Patrick Mahan ha escrit:

Hi,
I've got this home-made script, written in C, on a Freebsd 7.0
server with different versions of postfix: 2.3,2,4 and 2.5
The problem is that, while most of the time it works like a charm,
sometimes it crashes and bounces the message. It's not really a big
deal, cause the sender gets notified that their mail wasn't delivered
and hopefully, they will resend it. However, the problem is that I've
tried to debug my script but found nothing wrong at all, cause it
only fails from time to time, let's say... once for each 2000
messages that postfix receives, and it appears to do so in a random way.
As i said... postfix can fail to deliver a message to one particular
mailbox, but if then you resend the very same message to the very
same mailbox, it will be delivered.
The error is reported in both maillog and messages, like this:
**/var/log/maillog
Aug 7 01:55:19 mail01 postfix/pipe[27534]: 3E1A0143709:
to=EMAIL_ACCOUNT, relay=quota_postfix, delay=0.23,
delays=0.11/0/0/0.11, dsn=5.3.0, status=bounced (Command died with

*/var/log/messages***
Aug 7 01:55:19 mail01 kernel: pid 29535 (quota_postfix), uid 125:
exited on signal 10
Well signal 10 is SIGBUS which is indicative of (generally) a bad
address,
non-aligned memory address (on platforms it matters) or a hardware error.
I would look for places you are dereferencing a pointer without perhaps
first validating it.
Given that it rarely occurs, I might suspect that you are allocating some
memory, but failing to completely initialize (malloc() doesn't zero out
memory) it or assuming it is already initialize.
Good luck,
Patrick
Here you have some extra information about the script itself and the
master.cf

# ls -la /usr/local/etc/postfix/quota_postfix
-rwsr-xr-x 1 postfix postfix 20048 Aug 4 10:18

It's got de suid flag cause it performs a du command and other file
operations which need permissions, although i've tried with other
groups of permissions and it eventually crashes anyway with signal 10

So far, any program which crashed would leave a .core file in
/usr/crash, but this one is not doing the same, so... i can't
actually debug from the core file either.
Sysctl in my FreeBSD server is ok, but i guess that postfix, somehow
is preventing this filter from generating a core file. Is that
possible? Or am i completely wrong?
How could I, at least, generate the .core file?
Thanks.

problem on a Windows Server. Has anybody experienced similar problems? I
am at a dead end any help would be much appreciated.

F7: base system reinstall, no (open)ssh anymore...
Hello, I have upgraded from FreeBSD 6.3 to 7.0. When I recompiled the base system, there are no ssh related files anymore in the base system (no ssh, sshd and /etc/rc.d/sshd for example).

Check that /etc/make.conf (or /etc/src.conf) does not set/define: WITHOUT_OPENSSH There are other knobs that implicitly set this as well, so check for these, too: WITHOUT_CRYPT WITHOUT_OPENSSL If any of those are set, it will not build the ssh components.

KDE4 is not yet available. The x11/kde4 and x11/kde4base port

If you look at x11/kdebase4, you'll see that it still references KDE 3.5.8:

/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.kde4.mk:KDE_VERSION= 3.5.8

Soon now, I think. But it's not quite ready.

ACLs, permission mask and chmod g=
If I have acls enabled on a file, running chmod g=rw on that file, will not change its group permissions, but the acl mask. That is, running the following command: $ chmod g=rw foo ... is equivalent with $ setfacl -m m::rw- ... and not, as I would suspect: $ setfacl -m g::rw- In other words, foo will not be read/writable by its default group after the command have been run (unless it was already). I find this behaviour to be very confusing. It might be the correct bahaviour, but if so maybe the chmod(1) manpage, and possibly chmod(2), should be updated to document this?

[dhcpd] BOOTP from dynamic client and no dynamic leases
Hi,
If I had hair I'd be pulling it out now. I cannot find adequate help
anywhere as yet for this issue. I've installed the ISC dhcpd program
from ports and am struggling to get it setup properly. As I mentioned
in my other e-mail, I cannot share the contents of my configuration
file. I'm sorry, I really wished I could. What I have is this
(censored for host names and IP addresses):
not authoritative;
ddns-update-style none;
deny unknown-clients;
allow bootp;
use-host-decl-names on;
subnet 192.168.24.0 netmask 255.255.248.0 {
# this server will only host bootp, thus the range is left out
#leases
default-lease-time 6000;
max-lease-time 6000;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168..31.255;
option routers 192.168.24.1;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.51;
option domain-name internal.domain;
}
host host1 {
option host-name host1;
hardware ethernet 00:01:a2:4a:cc:af;
fixed-address 192.168.27.0;
}
That's all of the globals in use by this server and a single host
entry (there are 44 hosts using the range 192.168.27.0-192.168.27.43).
I do not know what is causing my problem. The dhcpd server starts so
I know there are no syntactic problems with my configuration file, but
it's not answering requests for IP addresses. When I start the
server, dhcpd -d, I get many lines with the test, BOOTP from dynamic
client and no dynamic leases. Also, because of how things are
configured for the subnet I'm on, I cannot allow this server to
respond to other DHCP requests. It can only service the small range
of 44 that I've been allocated.
The clients use bootp for this and although they are not booting
anything from this server, or any other, bootp is used. Whether or
not this is a good, or proper use, of bootp I know not. I didn't set
it up, but it is what I have to use. Can anyone here offer me any
ideas about what the problem might be?
From looking through the dhcpd.conf file I've found a configuration
option for pool clauses that's something like this:
lease limit N;
but I don't think this is what I'm looking for. First off, it seems
to only apply to pools and I'm not using any pools. Secondly, it
would only help if the assumption is correct that without this
statement the server defaults to a lease limit of 0. This, I don't
believe, is the case from what I've read in this man page.
Any help is greatly appreciated thanks,
Andy

Don't do this if you don't know what you're doing. I hope to be able to switch my architecture without re-installing FreeBSD with AMD64. You do realize that you have to recompile/reinstall your ports/packages to take advantage of the amd64 features? That is a _lot_ more work than reinstalling the base system! So reinstalling the base system should not worry you. Before you switch you should check that all ports that you need are available on amd64. If you look into the port makefile and see ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=i386, it won't work on amd64! Examples are the flash plugin for firefox and the binary nVidia driver for Xorg. The best advice I can give you is: - make backups of all your data (especially configuration files) - delete all ports - reinstall amd64 - rebuild the ports that you need.

Upon the congratulation screen is asks for a reboot, and to remove the boot disk, I resart to the error message above. I believe it is because a boot loader is not installed, however, it should be. Is it not in the set up, it is one of the first steps. Following the errors I am in put into a boot prompt: boot: Are there any commands I can run from this prompt to manually boot? How can I make the boot work? Will I need to install my own boot loader? How can I install a manul boot loader? How can I check if the boot loader is installed, but just not loading properly? You would do well do try the install again, but check things BEFORE you allow sysinstall to exit and reboot. Also check that your BIOS has any anti-virus settings not allowing the boot area of the hard disk to be written, turned off. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/no-boot-loader-tp18899421p18900779.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And where should I be checking them, to be more specific, which optoin should I choose within sysinstall to check the things? Be sure to write your settings. In the partition editor, make sure your desired FreeBSD slice is marked active and ensure you have selected to install the standard MBR loader. (If you want to be able to boot into more than one OS, you need to install the boot manager.) Afterwards, when creating the partitions within the slice, I assume you've done everything correctly, else no installation success would be able to happen. I am reading on another forum the installation is incorrect and to try again, however I have tried many times. There seems to be something you've missed, but at this point, I can't guess what it could be. Do you think the minimun install is not enough to allow for bootup? It is, if done correctly. To boot, a correct modification of the boot record is essential. As it has been mentioned, there are some BIOS variants that prohibit any modification of these hard disk areas. But that does not seem to be the problem. The message you gave seems to indicat that something is already in the boot area, but the loader itself cannot be run. The loader is placed into your FreeBSD slice (partition), it resides in /boot; if started, the loader invokes the kernel from /boot/kernel, but that's to be happing after you could solve the problem in question. This is what yould happen, summarized: 1. BIOS runs loader found in MBR (standard loader) 2. Standard loader runs /boot/loader 3. /boot/loader runs /boot/kernel/kernel (GENERIC) 4. Kernel initializes system, runs rc script 5. rc script controls system startup 6. System is up and running While number 1 is connected to the hard disk infront of any partitions, numbers 2 and 3 depend on the FreeBSD's slice and its partitions (usually /dev/ad0s1a). If the required content of this partition is not present, the error you mentioned is completely understandable. -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: A few questions from a current linux user
On Thu, 7 Aug 2008 23:20:08 -0400, Krishna Mohan Gundu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I am currently using Fedora Core 4 linux distribution for my everyday needs like programming, checking emails etc on my two year old HP laptop. I feel that time has come for me to move away from Fedora. I wasted a lot of time compiling libraries and their dependencies. I could benefit from better packaging systems that come with systems like FreeBSD. Hi Krishna, I've been meaning to respond to this post for a couple of days, but it took me a little longer than I originally hoped... This may be totally unrelated to the real question, but doesn't Fedora use pre-compiled packages by default? I thought that was pretty much the One True Way(TM) of updating Fedora systems. I tried to gather as much information as I could from the documentation available on freebsd.org, but the following questions remain unanswered. I would be glad if you can take time to educate me 1) Is a feature similar to magic SysRq in linux necessary for FreeBSD? (As I understand there is no such feature in FreeBSD) Not really. SysRq has a few nice characteristics, i.e. it can unmount local filesystems gracefully to avoid `fsck' runs during the next boot. It's a nice, handy tool in some cases. But it also comes at a cost: it modifies the in-memory state of the running kernel. FreeBSD has a kernel debugger that can be enabled, called DDB. When the kernel locks up or panics because something bogus happened, the DDB can dump the state of the kernel into a preconfigured swap area, and the startup scripts of the next boot will pick up the kernel coredump from swap, save it in `/var/crash', and let you run post-mortem analysis on the kernel core dump. If this is combined with something like SysRq, and there's really a bug in the parts of the kernel that SysRq has to use to perform its final steps, you lose. You may be modifying the parts of the kernel memory that actually exhibit the bug, and make the kernel dump unusable. 2) Is it possible to compile multiple versions of gcc? If so what is the best way to do it? Yes, of course. The base system of FreeBSD includes _one_ version of gcc, installed as `/usr/bin/gcc', but this does not mean that you are limited to *that* version only. You can use the Ports tree to install one or more versions. The snapshot of Ports I have on the laptop I am using to type this includes 12 different gcc ports (and that does not include the Fortran, Objective C, or Java backends GCC supports): # pwd /usr/ports/lang # ls -ld gcc* | nl 1 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc-ooo 2 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc28 3 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc295 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc32 5 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 22 05:03 gcc33 6 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 29 04:46 gcc34 7 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc41 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc41-withgcjawt 9 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 22 05:03 gcc42 10 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 17 03:01 gcc42-withgcjawt 11 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Jul 29 04:46 gcc43 12 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel - 512 Aug 7 02:25 gcc44 # So yes, you can install several different versions of GCC at the same time. 3) Is it possible to perform a binary update from one release to another? If so can you please point me to the documentation? How are config files updated in this case? (Could not locate documentation on binup) Yes. In recent FreeBSD releases, the base system of FreeBSD includes freebsd-update. This is a utility authored by Colin Percival, who is currently the Security Officer of FreeBSD, and a very smart fellow :) What freebsd-update does is described in its manpage http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-updateformat=ascii but the basic idea is that is can do one of the following things: * Download binary update packs in `/var/db/freebsd-update'. These are not installed immediatelly, so you can periodically pull the binary update files and install them later, when you have the time for an upgrade. The default `fetch' mode of `freebsd-update' downloads binary updates for the release branch of FreeBSD that you have installed on the local system. Staying on the same branch has various advantages that are nicely described in the online article about ` * Download binary update packs for _upgrading_ to a new release. This is slightly different from an update that sticks to a single FreeBSD release-branch, and there are official release notes about the changes of every major release. They are published online at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/ Downloading the binary packs for new release still does *not* install
