While this may not be an option, my preference would be to
  1) build a new machine, 2) install 8.1, 3) install the apps and
  data, 4) test thoroughly, then 5) ship the result to the remote
  location.  Anything else is likely to be too painful for words.

 How old is the hardware as well?  If its running 4.x, something is going
 to die on it sooner than later. I agree with the above. Send a new box
 or at the very least a new disk with 8.2 on it. Then, just mount the old
 4.x disk and copy over the user data.

I have done such upgrades in the past but they are very high risk, so the
chances are you will incur some prolonged downtime, and probably have to go
to site anyway. It would be much easier to build a new system disk, install
whatever ports you need and copy across anything else from the live system,
then install the new disk to the box (or an entire new box)

Upgrade path from STABLE to RELEASE

2011-01-07 Thread Paul Macdonald


Hi,

I have a box which i installed 7.0 stable on and i want to do a binary 
update to 8.1 REL, is this possible via the freebsd-update utility?


freebsd-update -r 8.1-RELEASE upgrade
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 4 mirrors found.
Fetching public key from update5.FreeBSD.org... failed.
Fetching public key from update4.FreeBSD.org... failed.
Fetching public key from update2.FreeBSD.org... failed.
Fetching public key from update3.FreeBSD.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.

(Its only on stable that it fails, works fine).

thanks
Paul.

No. freebsd-update only works with -RELEASE branches, as you have
discovered for yourself.

Your choices are to backup and reinstall using a release version,
or to grab the latest -STABLE or -RELEASE sources and upgrade by
compiling from source.  Note that last option still won't allow you to
use freebsd-update subsequently: you have to stick with the binaries
from the install media for that to work.

Cheers,

Matthew

I'm afraid as others have indicated, you'll have to visit the site or
ship a preconfigured box to the site.

Add LDAP support to the OPTIONS for devel/apr1 by running 'make config'

Rebuild and reinstall devel/apr1

Rebuild and reinstall www/apache22

In general, you need to match up the capabilities from devel/apr1 with
the set of modules you want to enable for www/apace22.  So if you want
apache itself[*] to interface with LDAP, MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite or
you want to use ndbm format hash files etc. then you need to turn on the
corresponding capability in devel/apr1.

Ditto for www/apache20 and devel/apr0 and (presumably) for the upcoming
www/apache24 and devel/apr2.

That by itself should not be a showstopper, since newer FreeBSD

it.  Although it is generally a good idea to use UFS2 rather than UFS1
with FreeBSD 5+ it is certainly not necessary.

  setting up that same external hd w/ a full 8.2-R root when it's ready, so I
  have a full, local tree to utilize for weird installs like this (I don't

Excellent idea.

Just for curiousity's sake, after all that what do you wind up with for:

Have you tried making sure that the MySQL daemon is started /BEFORE/ PowerDNS

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I thought you put your hand in my exact problem.

When I start PowerDNS from command line using /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pdns 
onestart its running smooth. 

To make auto startup I just put this line pdns_enable=YES to the end  of 
/etc/rc.conf.

Can you please highlight to me how and where to add the instruction for auto

Well, that should be easy.You just have a new disk, slice, partition
and newfs it with a new UFS2 system.  Then dump the old partitions
and restore them on the new partitions.It is still a matter of
creating a new system with new space.  You could do it to a spare
machine and then once it is all built, do the same back to the old
machine and it would all be up-to-date.

The new one would be nice and clean then too.

ImageMagick-6.6.6-10 Port

I wasn't sure who to send this to I just grabbed the 
ImageMagick-6.6.6-10 port from the FreeBSD.com ports collection and there's 
a problem with the source code. When I run 'make' it croaks looking for 
ImageMagick-6.6.6-10.tar.gz in the distinfo file, but the distinfo file 
references ImageMagick-6.6.6-10.tar.xz.




I'll find it somewhere else, but I thought you'd want to know...

problem booting a new server on FreeBSD

2011-01-07 Thread FRLinux
Hello,

We have purchased a brand new server running an Intel Motherboard
which boots fine on Linux but not on FreeBSD, I have tried FreeBSD 8.1
and 8.2-RC1 without success. The motherboard is a S5500HCV (Version:
E40912-455). It has 2 SATA drives connected in compatible mode in the
BIOS (also tried AHCI without success). It also hosts a 3ware RAID
controller (9750 series, 16 ports).

When booting, i get to the screen where I can select which boot
process i want for FreeBSD (normal, without ACPI, debug, single,
etc...). Regardless of the option I select, it starts flickering the
rotating cursor (\|/-) then freezes completely with no information.

I have disabled a few options in the BIOS including advanced ACPI
states for the CPU (Intel Xeon E5620), disabled HT and speedstep
without much success.

Any hint welcome, this server with be an NFS box and I don't fancy
having Linux running on it.

I am including the linux lspci to show what's on the box:

 I'll find it somewhere else, but I thought you'd want to know...


You grabbed the unofficial port, so not entirely unexpected.

 Thank you for your reply. I thought you put your hand in my exact problem.

 When I start PowerDNS from command line using /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pdns

 To make auto startup I just put this line pdns_enable=YES to the end  of

uname -a is probably the most general answer, as most FreeBSD NIC drivers 
don't have individualized version #s, aside from the OS version itself.

The sysctl tree under dev for a particular device, ie, sysctl dev.bce, 
sysctl dev.em, etc will return more information which might include a

Thanks, Chuck! I Googled for an answer for a while and didn't find much. I  
did find that the particular driver I was interested did have a version

doesn't have source trees on their hosts.

That is not my understanding.
To the OP: FreeBSD NIC drivers can and do have version numbers:

huff@ grep \$FreeBSD /sys/dev/e1000/if_em.c
/*$FreeBSD: src/sys/dev/e1000/if_em.c,v 1.64 2010/12/04 06:38:21 jfv Exp $*/

The system in question:

FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #0: Sat Oct 23 08:15:53 EDT 2010 amd64 

Obviously, the driver and OS version have nothing to do with
each other.  And the FreeBSD driver version will probably have
nothing to do with any other driver version, especially one provided
by the manufacturer.

It would be nice to see the full error message. Can you
copy  paste it (e. g. last 20 lines of output)? The
precise error message often gives some information
about what went wrong.

I don't see anything related to FUSE or NTFS in your kernel

which syslog??? (rsyslog? syslog-ng? or default?)

I have some boxes (about 40) that I was tasked with creating a

several different versions of rsyslog, and syslog-ng.

Is there any reason to use one or the other? Or should I just use the
syslog that come with the base OS?

RE: which syslog??? (rsyslog? syslog-ng? or default?)

2011-01-07 Thread Gary Gatten
After a bit of research I picked rsyslog.  Actually, my syslog servers had to 
be RHEL, so I have all my logs going to 2 servers; one runs rsyslog and the 
other the syslogd that shipped with RHEL.  They have different retention 
policies, one keeps about 30 days of logs online, the other about 90 days.

Rsyslog has some cool features that may come in handy for a centralized logging 
environment.  I don't use many (any?) of them right now, but it's nice to know 
they're there.  Depending on your environment you may want to check it out.  
It's really handy if you can replace your sending hosts syslogd with rsyslogd - 
if the central log server fails it will buffer log  entries locally and then 
ship them when the server comes back up.  Also supports tcp based syslog and a 
couple other lossless protocols.  I have mostly Ci$co gear logging here so 
can't really replace their logging daemon!

it looks like you started editing a conf file that comes from FreeBSD 
CURRENT (what will become FreeBSD 9.0 in the future). Obviously this 
will not work in 8.1-RELEASE. You'll need to start by editing the 
GENERIC conf file that comes with 8.1-RELEASE.

 But it seems like it only shows the time of its main thread.

 Why? Bug in documentation?

Wasn't this fixed in r182966?

Re: Re: 9650SE-2LP raid card locks system

2011-01-07 Thread Troy Beisigl
Well, it did lock up today. There is no way to do anything on the console. The 
entire machine is locked hard. The errors on the console show:

twa0: ERROR: (0x05: 0x210B): Request timed out!: request = 0xc5633430
twa0: INFO: (0x16: 0x1108): Resetting controller...:

From there everything is locked hard. Not even the caps/numlock keys work on 
the keyboard. I would normally suspect hardware, but I can take and wipe the 
drives and re-install CentOS5.4 and it will run without any issues. I would 
prefer not to use Linux, but it is looking like we are going to have to if we 
can't resolve the issues with these controllers and FreeBSD.

 I will have to check on its next lockup. It happens about every week to
 week and a half.

Are you able to force the issue to recreate the problem ?

I saw this on an i7 box running RELENG_6, but moving to 7 made all quite
stable.  Are you using 6 by chance ?  The box is an i7 920

ACPI APIC Table: INTEL  DX58SO  
FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs
 cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID:  0
 cpu1 (AP): APIC ID:  2

 cpu3 (AP): APIC ID:  6

You are right according to this revision log (in stable/8):

r182966 | sepotvin | 2008-09-12 10:54:50 -0700 (Fri, 12 Sep 2008) | 7 lines

Display the sum of the runtime of all the threads in a process when it's
multithreaded instead of picking the time of the first thread found.


But I have rebuilt my system 8.1-STABLE on Oct 11 2010 and my top only 
shows the main thread's CPU use.


How can this be?
Yuri
