Hiya.

I just did my Xorg upgrade, which included an upgrade of OpenOffice.org
to version 2.2.1.

Now, when I launch OO, it complains not at all, but opens no windows.
It doesn't take much time:

   time openoffice.org-2.2.1
  0.727u 0.267s 0:02.06 47.5% 301+915k 1+0io 0pf+0w
  

The shell wrapper (/usr/local/openoffice.org-2.2.1/program/soffice) is
definitely running soffice.bin.  But the binary does nothing except
return an exit value of 78, which is *not* trapped by the shell wrapper.
And I don't know what 78 means.

I've seen some hints in other operating systems' forums that OO does
strange things when fonts with questionable metrics are installed, so
I've uninstalled a bunch of things that I can probably do without, and
replaced the rest with `portupgrade -fR xorg-fonts-7.2`, to no avail.

Running soffice.bin in an strace produces gobs of output that I don't
know how to interpret.  The last few useful lines from strace refer to
libraries like libglib, libiconv, etc, so I've reinstalled glib2 and
libiconv and some others, also to no avail.

I'm in 6.1-RELEASE-p17.  Java (diablo-jdk1.5.0) works standalone, TTF
fonts work in other apps, and OO was built with these in /etc/make.conf:
  WITH_EVOLUTION2=yes
  WITH_TTF_BYTECODE_ENABLED=yes
  WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE=yes

Any suggestions?  Has anyone else seen and solved this?

Thanks.

 that's enough to make it happen. Run that, and you get:

   Interestingly enough, if you run that same script in a
 Debian Linux environment, you get:
 
 ./testfile: line 2: a: command not found

This is actually just the difference between sh and bash.  You'll see
the latter error if you type `a = 5` in bash in any OS.  It just so
happens that most Linux distributions don't have a real sh:

Sorry, my crystal ball is out for cleaning today. Perhaps you might be
kind enough to include the log file(s) that you have regarding this
incident. Also post any error messages, etc. that you receive as well
as any other additional relevant data.

Read 'man script' if you need assistance on how to create a log file

I will say that my limited use with Debian testing (Lenny) and Flash was 
actually quite pleasant.  Flash worked on almost all sites very well.


I'm not all that familiar with the process that the FreeBSD Foundation 
went through to get Java binaries but I am wondering if they could do 
something similar with Adobe to get a native Flash on FreeBSD.  How 
possible is this?  I know this probably goes against everything that BSD 
stands for but money talks in this day and age.'


Would it be worth pursuing some kind of license agreement with Adobe so 
that the community or Adobe could start working on a native Flash for 
FreeBSD?

Maximun number of LUNs recognized by FreeBSD 6.2

2007-07-03 Thread Marcelo Vieira


Hi,

I'm not having success to find which would be the maximum number of LUNs
recognized by FreeBSD 6.2.
I have an HBA Qlogix QLA2340 attached to an EMC Symmetrix and was not able
to recognize any LUN higher that 7.
Once I could not find any documentation informing that this really is the
limit recognized by it I'm in doubt if I'm having an issue or it is working
as expected.
Could someone clarify this question ?

FreeBSD needs native support from Adobe. Flash, although I dislike it,
is needed in modern web experience. Flash works very well on windows,
but also on linux and (luckely for me) solaris. No hassle, just
download the right flash file for my OS and it works. I hope this day
will come for FreeBSD too. I remember from my days using fbsd flash
was one of the annoying items to get working.

 I have seen too many individuals simply give up on the procedure and
 return to using Windows for browsing.

Hmm, that's their loss I guess. It won't take too long before browsing
in this OS becomes a real pain in due to malware. I never was
clean longer than a few minutes unprotected.

 A simple search of this forum will prove that point out. It just
 shouldn't have to be that complicated.

It can ruin the experience. You're right about hat.

 I am able to isolate the problem to kernel configurations which have

 With ONE cpu the core dump works ok.

 Only added the options SMP and crashed the kernel, then prior to any

2TB (and above) Disk

2007-07-03 Thread Dave Raven

Hi all,
Firstly I am using FreeBSD 4, I know it's not supported but
hopefully someone has some experience with large disks on 4. I have a box
with 6x 500gig drives, configured in raid 5 which comes out around 2.3
terabytes of space. With that, the system picks up the drive (da0) as 0MB in
size. I haven't been able to solve that, but took one drive out (moving it
to 1.9gig) and it works fine...

However, when I try to use /stand/sysinstall I get tons of drive geometry
errors, and can't create more than a 1TB slice. If I use A to use whole
disk, it goes through with a negative number but then the labeling part of
the process gives a  paritions are larger than actual chunk  error. 

I then ran dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da0 bs=1m count=1 and disklabel -wr
da0 auto. This seems to setup a working paritition table, but any attempts
on the drive after that to do a newfs result in: newfs preposterous size
and a negative number...

Any ideas or is it even possible?

Thanks in advance
Dave

Note that there is a separate tunable for the maximum # of pages that a

libc). It boosted performance for my app (with a lot of embedded lua) by 20%.

if_bridge and ipfw

2007-07-03 Thread Dave McCammon

I can't seem to grasp why this is working differently.
FreeBSD 6.2 using ipfw + if_bridge

LAN -- em1(if_bridge + ipfw)em0 -- internet

so I am at 10.10.16.6 and try to ping say www.yahoo.com

in ruleset:
1100 allow icmp from any to 10.10.16.0/27{1-10,13,14,19,22,23} icmptypes 
0,3,11,12,13,14
2100 allow ip from 10.10.16.0/27 to any in via em1

gets dropped by following rule as shown in logs:

4700 deny log ip from any to any

Log entry: ipfw: 4700 Deny ICMP:8.0 10.10.16.6 69.147.114.210 out via em0

If I add this rule all works great:

2101 allow icmp from 10.10.16.6 to any icmptypes 8

My confusion is shouldn't the icmp be allowed in rule 2100? Or is it with 
if_bridge I have to make a rule for
both interfaces.


The rule 2100 allow ip from 10.10.16.0/27 to any in via em1 allowed the icmp 
passage,
out of em0 through the bridge in 6.2 using bridge(4).

This entire ruleset is the same with if_bridge as has been working with 
bridge(4).
I just moved to if_bridge since the bridge(4) is obsolete.

Thanks for your help.

sh should always be sh compatible on every platform (surprisingly). It
may even be defined in one of the POSIX standards. This is why you write
shell scripts in sh, even if you prefer csh, ksh or bash as your actual
shell.

Problem installing FreeBSD 5.3

2007-07-03 Thread Lisa Casey


Hi,

I am attempting to install FreeBSD 5.3 (because that's the latest distro I 
have CD's for) on a brand new system with a 80 G harddrive and 2 G RAM.


I boot from Disk 1 of the 5.3 disk set and choose to begin a standard 
installation. Next is the fdisk utility to partition the drive. The first 
thing  I get is a message which states:


WARNING: A geometry of 155061/16/63 for ad0 is incorrect. Using a more 
likely geometry. If this geometry is incorrect or if you are unsure whether 
or not it's correct, please consult the hardware guide in the documentation 
submenu or use the (G)eometry command to change it now.


Even if I go to bios and use the values bios gives for the harddrive 
(38309/16/255) I still get the same message about incorrect geometry.


I can choose OK and get past this.  I choose to devote the entire disk to 
FreeBSD, and install the FreeBSD boot manager. Next I need to partition my 
drive. The defaults won't do at all (this machine  is to be a radius server 
 mail server and the default size of /var is too small). I chose 2000M for 
/, 4000M for swap (using 2 x RAM), 200M for /tmp, 20,000M for /usr and the 
remainder for /var.


Next I chose to install full sources, binaries  docs and to install the 
Ports collection.


I chose to install from CD then hit OK to start copying files but I get 
this error:


Unable to find device node for /dev/ad0s1b in /dev. The creation of file 
systems will be aborted.


ad0s1b is my swap partition. I changed the size of swap to 2000M thinking 
perhaps it was too large but I get the same error about unable to find 
device node.


I've googled this but haven't found anything that helped me resolve this. 
Any body on this list know what I need to do to get FreeBSD installed on 
this drive?


Thanks,

pam_ldap issues

2007-07-03 Thread Eric Masson

Hello,

I'm trying to setup authentication via a ldap directory on a 6.2-p5 box.
id queries regarding a ldap defined user using root or a local defined
user work fine :

testuser can't log on the box (authentication failed). The following
message pops on the console :

if_lagg(4) and rc.conf

2007-07-03 Thread Michael W. Lucas

Hi,

I'm trying to configure a lagg(4) interface out of rc.conf.  FreeBSD
doesn't want to initialize the interface at boot.  I'm obviously
missing some little thing.  I'm successfully loading if_lagg into the
kernel, so that's not the problem.

I can configure the interface at the command line if I do a ifconfig
lagg0 create and then enter the configuration, but there doesn't seem
to be a rc.conf flag to tell the system to create an interface?

Here's my rc.conf for these interfaces:

ifconfig_em3=up
ifconfig_em7=up
ifconfig_lagg0=laggproto lacp laggport em3 laggport em7 10.184.1.19 netmask 
0x

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
==ml

 In particular does it have the problem where the flash item turns

 there's a decent chance it will get fixed by Adobe.

I get this occasionally, usually when I have multiple tabs open with
Flash items on each page.  Of course, I usually run Firefox with Flash
Block, so I don't tend to see this frequently in that browser--only
when I forget to close tabs when I'm done with them.  In Opera, it's
much more common, because I don't have that plugin.

If you're having problems with 5.3, it might be better to try 6.2 or maybe 5.5 
than to spend too much time playing with a version that you're going to have 
to update immediately before using, anyway.


Note that you can simply burn a new FreeBSD image from the ones on 
ftp.freebsd.org or the mirrors mentioned in the fine manual...  :-)


I boot from Disk 1 of the 5.3 disk set and choose to begin a standard 
installation. Next is the fdisk utility to partition the drive. The 
first thing  I get is a message which states:


WARNING: A geometry of 155061/16/63 for ad0 is incorrect. Using a more 
likely geometry. If this geometry is incorrect or if you are unsure 
whether or not it's correct, please consult the hardware guide in the 
documentation submenu or use the (G)eometry command to change it now.


Even if I go to bios and use the values bios gives for the harddrive 
(38309/16/255) I still get the same message about incorrect geometry.


You might try updating your machine's BIOS, if anything is available, and you 
might try entering the disk configuration settings and try to make sure the 
BIOS is set to LBA mode rather than C/H/S or some manual geometry.


Usually the default/auto setting ends up in LBA mode, anyway, unless your BIOS 
is old or flaky.


I can choose OK and get past this.  I choose to devote the entire disk 
to FreeBSD, and install the FreeBSD boot manager. Next I need to 
partition my drive. The defaults won't do at all (this machine  is to be 
a radius server  mail server and the default size of /var is too 
small). I chose 2000M for /, 4000M for swap (using 2 x RAM), 200M for 
/tmp, 20,000M for /usr and the remainder for /var.


Next I chose to install full sources, binaries  docs and to install the 
Ports collection.


I chose to install from CD then hit OK to start copying files but I get 
this error:


Unable to find device node for /dev/ad0s1b in /dev. The creation of file 
systems will be aborted.


ad0s1b is my swap partition. I changed the size of swap to 2000M 
thinking perhaps it was too large but I get the same error about unable 
to find device node.


This implies a problem writing out the partition table.  Make sure the IDE 
cables are OK and that the disk drive and CD-ROM drive have the IDE 
master/slave setting jumpers properly configured.


You might have a BIOS setting about boot sector virus protection; if so, 
turn that off or your BIOS might have prevented FreeBSD from writing the 
bootstrap info/MBR out to disk.


You might also try using a DOS or Windows version of FDISK to create a small 
bootable partition (a Win 98/ME recovery floppy works good for this), and see 
whether that is bootable.  If it is, then try installing FreeBSD to the 
remainder of the disk space.

I haven't played with if_lagg yet, but you should be able to use the 
cloned_interfaces knob in /etc/rc.conf to create the interface. e.g.:

cloned_interfaces=lagg0

if_lagg(4) mentions this briefly (at the end before the examples), and

  I use portmanager to update my ports and when I ran it today I got the
  following failure as the poppler-qt port was doing it's configure:
 
  ---Snip--
  checking for Qt headers... /usr/local/include
  checking for Qt libraries... /usr/local/lib
  test: xyes: unexpected operator
  configure: error: Qt development libraries not found

 It looks like QT's autoconf test is buggy.
 work/poppler-0.5.4/configure script, line 25757:

 if test x$have_qt4 == xyes; then

 == is not a valid comparison operator for the test command.  It must
 be =.

I was having the same problem as the OP. After Dan's post I did a make 
patch, then modified the configure script replacing two instances of == with 
= on these two lines:

25851:if test x$have_qt == xyes; then
26033:if test x$have_qt == xyes; then

After that I was able to make and install the port.

gnome@ folks, should I submit a PR or will you guys just take this upstream 
directly?

I wasn't in the mood for screwing around, so I just rebuilt everything
on my system after grabbing a ports tree with 7.2 in it.

pkg_delete -af
cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade  make install clean
portupgrade -N x11/xorg x11/kde3 ...

Probably the least efficient way, but it got the job done. ;)

Losing connections/performance with PF turned on

2007-07-03 Thread Pat Maddox


We're doing some stress testing on our server, and noticed that when
we turn PF on, we lose connections and have a drastic reduction in
performance.

We used SIEGE for 120 seconds, 50 connections, on req/conn

Firewall On:

Num Users: 50
Availability: 97.23 %
Transaction rate: 58.02 trans/sec
Concurrency: 3.80
Successful: 6994
Failed: 198
Longest Req: 9.06s

Firewall Off:

Num Users: 50
Availability: 100 %
Transaction rate: 94.62 trans/sec
Concurrency: 1.76
Successful: 11342
Failed: 0
Longest Req: 0.51s



You'll notice that with the firewall off, we don't lose any
connections.  We also have a 60% increase in tx/sec, and the longest
request takes 1/20 of the time.

I'm including my complete pf.conf file in the hopes that something
will jump out at someone.

Thanks,
Pat

You shouldn't need that to install kino. I haven't tried to transfer

Setting this does almost nothing, running even as root.   When a

causes an immediate crash.   Not even a core file to look at.

Set as an environment variable, that appears to make no difference.
Also tried with the variable OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP, which is mentioned in a
number of mailing list and forum posts for other operating systems.

But thanks for the suggestion.

Hrm, I just realized there's a freebsd-openoffice@ list.  Perhaps I'll

Migration from 5.5 to 6.2 without single user access

Is there a recommended way to do the upgrade from 5.5 to 6.2? 

Do everything in multi-user, but kill all services but sshd?

Re: The worst error message in history belongs to... BIND9!

  This is actually just the difference between sh and bash ...
 
 differences in, say, arithmetic handling and loops can sometimes
 mean rewriting parts of shell scripts depending on whether it is
 going to run in BSD or Linux.

 That's a major argument for doing things in python or perl as
 they are consistent across all platforms ...

If one is going to require the installation of something that may
not be part of a base system, that something might as well be bash :)

Windows caters to everyone as though they are idiots. UNIX makes no such assumption.
It assumes you know what you are doing, and presents the challenge of figuring it out for yourself if you don't.

I added the following lines to the end of my httpd.conf file (but before
the virtual host directives) before I recieved your e-mail and it fixed
the problem:

 What X toolkit? QT / KDE? GTK? 

GTK2, I'm running in Gnome.  For reference, this also happens when I try
to run OO from twm with no desktop manager.

I normally have $LANG set for other reasons, but I also noticed that
without it set, I see an error:

  I18N: Operating system doesn't support locale en_US

Presumably, OO was built with that as a default.  When I set
LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, the error doesn't show ... but it's notable that
this error is from /usr/local/openoffice.org-2.2.1/program/soffice.bin,
so I know the binary is running.

I still don't know why soffice.bin exits with a return value of 78.

 yes, see
 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2007-June/151700.html and
 the thread it belongs to.

An interesting thread, but my symptoms are different from yours.  I get
no crash.  I get no quick flahes of a window on the screen.  Setting the
OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP env var changes OO's behaviour not at all.

Perl has not been part of the base system for several years and
was deprecated for some time before that.

Is it part of the default install without being part of the base system,
then?  I don't recall needing to install it after system install on this
laptop (using FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE).

One of the reasons I started using perl almost 20 years ago was
that it was cleaner and more consistent than tying a bunch of
utilities together with the shell (not to mention only having to
master one type of regular expressions :-).

I now use python for the vast majority of my development work
instead of perl as I find it much cleaner with better object
oriented features.

When I write shell scripts, I use a very limited set of features
which are /bin/sh compatible.  As soon as I start having to do
anything much more than run a program against a list of files, I
switch to python.

I'm of a similar mind, except that for OOP stuff I prefer Ruby, and for
non-OOP stuff I still generally use Perl.  Python doesn't really whet my
whistle, so to speak.

  $language =~ s/python/Perl/
Otherwise, ditto what you said.  Much like PHP, I find that shell
languages as scripting syntaxes don't really scale well in terms of
maintainability.  YMMV, of course.
