I think that it is NetBSD apache as you mentioned above. I will try to compile another apache manually and install it in /usr/local. Although it is a waste of time to install apache with php module manually, I hope that emulated linux apache could solve this problem.

library path is missing
Hello, I have compiled oci8 success with linux emulation. But I can not restart apache with this module. Apache will crash. I used ldd to check libraries it referred to and found that some library's path are missing. So that I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable and make sure that it can refer to correct libraries. As follows : # ldd oci8.so oci8.so: -lclntsh.10.1 => /usr/lib/oracle/ 10.2.0.5/client/lib/libclntsh.so.10.1 -lnnz10 => not found -ldl.2 => not found -lm.6 => not found -lpthread.0 => not found -lnsl.1 => not found -lc.6 => not found -lgcc_s.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 -lc.12 => /usr/lib/libc.so.12 # export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/emul/linux/lib64:/usr/lib/oracle/ 10.2.0.5/client/lib" # ldd oci8.so oci8.so: -lclntsh.10.1 => /usr/lib/oracle/ 10.2.0.5/client/lib/libclntsh.so.10.1 -lnnz10 => /usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.5/client/lib/libnnz10.so -lc.6 => /emul/linux/lib64/libc.so.6 ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /emul/linux/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -ldl.2 => /emul/linux/lib64/libdl.so.2 -lm.6 => /emul/linux/lib64/libm.so.6 -lpthread.0 => /emul/linux/lib64/libpthread.so.0 -lnsl.1 => /emul/linux/lib64/libnsl.so.1 -lgcc_s.1 => /emul/linux/lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 -lc.12 => /usr/lib/libc.so.12 Everything seems correct and great. But Apache can not load this module. I remember that there is a tool called ldconfig in linux. After installing new library, I will use it to refresh system library's path. Should I install it to solve my problem in NetBSD? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Regards, Chingyuan

I have downloaded it from ftp.netbsd.org and reported this problem to NetBSD's web site. Thank you !

Re: Can not Download NetBSD 8.0 i386 USB Install Image
AhhI forgot to describe more detail about my problem. I used Firefox to download i386 USB install image form NetBSD's download page. The URL is as follows : https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-8.0/images/NetBSD-8.0-i386-install.img.gz After clicking the link, firefox shows that the source file can not be read. So that I try to download i386 ISO image. But the error message is the same. There may be something wrong with amd64 ISO image. I had downloaded amd64 ISO image last Sunday. But I can not download it now. Firefox responds File not found. :( Is there something wrong with cdn.netbsd.org ???

7.0.1 AMD64 Install Problem - laptop TOSHIBA Satellite L840
Hello, I want to install NetBSD 7.0.1 AMD64 on my laptop. But I encountered a problem as attachment. I tried to boot with different options. However, the install process crashed again. I found that there are a bug report #49964 with my situation. According to it's fix section, I can use userconf to disable Radeon module. I execute 'userconf list' to get the current list. But the result is empty. I wonder that I can install NetBSD in my laptop or not. If it can be installed, I worried that installing xorg is another problem to me. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Re: Activate usb wifi adapter success or not ?
Hello Greg Ed, Thank you for response quickly ! Greg, you point out the things I forgot to check. There is a built-in Ethernet Adapter, fxp0, in my laptop. I use it to complete NetBSD's install process. It was assigned a default gateway, 192.168.1.1, and has a start script as ifconfig.fxp0 in /etc. However, my access point's IP is also 192.168.1.1. For avoiding confuse, I delete /etc/ifconfig.fxp0 and comment default gateway in /etc/rc.conf. Then reboot my laptop again. Great ! I can surf Internet via my usb wifi adapter. Ed, you give me a new thought about saving USB port for something else. My laptop has PCMCIA device. But it had never been used. Although it is ten years old, I don't want to lose it. This is my first laptop. I use it to learn Linux and take some projects as freelancer. Actually, I want to do something with it. But I have no idea now.
