installing rt40 from ports
Hi.
I am planning to deploy rt40 (sqlite backend) with nginx (fastcgi).
(nginx-devel and rt40 from /usr/ports)
After installing rt40, I setup the initial database by executing
/usr/local/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init
I have no problem using the standalone server:
/usr/local/bin/standalone_httpd and rt40 works as expected.
I have tried setting up rt40 using nginx with no success.
I try running fcgi from command line: /usr/local/bin/spawn-fcgi -n -u
www -g rt -p 9000 -- /usr/local/sbin/rt-server.fcgi
but always starts for a moment, then crashes.
My nginx.conf is as follows:
location /rt/ {
root /usr/local/share/rt40/html;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;
} # location /rt/
location /rt/NoAuth/ {
alias /usr/local/share/rt40/html/NoAuth/;
} # location /rt/NoAuth/
Please help me.
Thanks.
Fyi, my system is:

Sqlite is really only suitable for development usage: RT expects a more
fully featured database that supports concurrent usage by several
instances simultaneously. This may well be the problem you're seeing
when trying to fire up spawn-fcgi, if that is trying to run several fcgi
threads.
Personally I prefer and recommend postgresql as the backend to RT.

www -g rt -p 9000 -- /usr/local/sbin/rt-server.fcgi

Does it generate a core file?
Is there anything relevant in the Log? If necessary, try turning up the
log level in ${LOCALBASE}/etc/rt40/RT_SiteConfig.pm --
Set($LogToSyslog, debug);
and possibly enable the 'all.log' by following the instructions in
/etc/syslog.conf
Cheers,
Matthew

Re: Patent hit - MS goes after Linux - FreeBSD ?
Let's also hope that most patents that could harm us (should there be some lurking out there) will have expired by then. True. As most technology that ever microsoft invented is a quickly reengineered or just stoled things that was already done many years before in many other systems, very often BSD, then it is not a problem Unless Congress pulls a Mickey Mouse Protection Act-lookalike on patents by extending them just as they did with Copyright. then it will still hit USA users only. FreeBSD master site can simply be moved. But as usual with Congress, I wouldn't hold my breath: they aren't exactly known for enacting reasonable and sensible laws.

This has been reported for FreeBSD and PC-BSD for quite some time. The booting sequence always looks like this: ... BIOS drive A: is disk0 last message seen BIOS drive B: is disk1 or this ... Based on Google search results: - solved by disabling SATA in BIOS - combination of IDE (ATA) and SATA disks caused a problem, disconnecting either one solved it; it could also mean a problem with hd device driver - old/buggy firmware; BIOS update solved the problem - disable ACPI, or Firewire, or USB emulation, or ... in BIOS :-) - A wild guess could be that there's something on the RAID volume that's keeping the boot loader from working. Maybe the partition table is wrong in a subtle way? If you can get the RAID array to work *after* you boot from a FreeBSD installation CD (i.e. boot the machine without the drives, add drives later), try clearing the first megabyte of the array (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/yourdrive bs=1m count=1). - With my rocketraid somethingsomething PCI-SATA2 card with disks connected crashes the BTX loader. Connecting the disks to the internal via epia motherboard solved the problem ... I have a feeling that it might be some combinations of BTX, BIOS and RAID firmware that causes these crashes. - CC'ing John Baldwin on this, as he has knowledge of BTX's internals. For those of you who are adventurous: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/boot/i386/loader/ I'he updated BIOS and now all works as expected.

Bacula on FreeBSD Concurrent Jobs
I am trying to set-up my FreeBSD Bacula server to run concurrent jobs, however it only runs one job at a time, and doesn't report why its waiting to execute the second job. I have contacted the Bacula-Users mail list, and know one there seems to have an idea why my configuration isn't working. Thought I would check here and see if anyone else is running concurrent Bacula jobs on their FreeBSD servers. I have Bacula 5.2.10 installed from ports on a 9.0-RELEASE-P3 system, my backups are being written to a eSATA disk volumes. I have added the Max Concurrent Jobs entries everywhere that the Bacula tips and tricks manual page says to add them. Even though I am running backups to disk I went the extra step of adding a spool directory, after it wasn't working and still no dice. If anyone has this working and knows of any special tricks required on FreeBSD to do this, and could pass those on that would be great. -- Thanks, Dean E.

Do lawyers not use the law to their clients' advatage -- often abusing it -- just because they're wrong in the final analysis? seems you never worked long with lawyers, or you are lucky and have really fair one.
