libxml2 complier

2005-03-15 Thread Alex Shaw
Hi,

I have a problem compiling libxml2 from the ports. the error is this:

cc -O -pipe -pedantic -W -Wformat -Wunused -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wswitch 
-Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wchar-subscripts -Wuninitialized -Wparentheses

Ive tried compiling several different versions of libxml all produce the same 
error. I contacted the xml list for libxml2 and have been directed towards os 
help with the compiler, apperntly the compiler includes are not in sync with 
the installed libc. I know compat4x was installed recently and dont know if 
this has and relation.

I have included the text of the conversation on the libxml list for reference, 
Ideally I need to get this back up so i can get php-xml to run. Any suggestions 
here would be useful as I am out of my depth when it come to compilers and how 
they work.

unfortuantly rebuilding the box is out of the question, im away on a 
busiessness trip about 1 miles from the server :(, so any solution that 
might be a temporary fix till i can get back next week would be a start

Alex

 Hi, im trying to install libxml2-2.6.18 from the FreeBSD ports, there is a 
 problem with the compile on the system i am using. I have tried several 
 versions of libxml2 and they all return the same error, which means its 
 probably not an issue involved with libxml, but I cant pin down where the 
 error is coming from, or what is causing the problem to occur. I was hoping 
 someone on this list would be able to point me in the direction of what is 
 causing this.
 
 The error is:
 cc -O -pipe -pedantic -W -Wformat -Wunused -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wswitch 
 -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wchar-subscripts -Wuninitialized 
 -Wparentheses -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings 
 -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs 
 -Winline -Wredundant-decls -o .libs/xpath1 xpath1.o  -L/usr/local/lib 
 ../../.libs/libxml2.so -lz -liconv -lm -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib
 ../../.libs/libxml2.so: undefined reference to `__signbit'

  paphio:~/XML - grep __signbit *.c
  paphio:~/XML - grep __signbit *.c include/libxml/*.h
  paphio:~/XML -

 Somehow your system or compiler includes are not in synch with your
installed libc, sounds bad, but you're right it doesn't sound like a
libxml2 problem.
 The great thing about those systems where everybody recompiles locally is
that you don't have the same system as your neighbour, this is also its
main drawback, you're on your own to debug the problem...

Re: libxml2 complier

2005-03-15 Thread Alex Shaw
Finally ive managed to solve this problem by copying /usr/lib/libm.so.3 from 
the backup server onto the corrupt box. this fixed all the problems i was 
having ..(why oh why didnt I try this earlier)

 my only problem now is I cant understand why this file may have been changed. 
The last thing done before the failure was to install compat4x from the ports. 
Can anyone help me understand what happened or how this file was replaced, my 
understanding is that ports stuff is installed into /

regards 

Alex

kernel panic booting 5.3 releng

2005-01-13 Thread Alex Shaw
Hi,

Im experiancing a problem while updating my laptop to 5.3. I currently run 
5.1-RELEASE version from a while back (should have updated a long time ago I 
know), on my Dell C840 Latitude. I followed the instructions on 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html

cvsuping from the RELENG_5_3

At the point where I reboot into single user mode it all falls over. The new 
GENERIC kernel fails to boot, stopping after the memory detection with a kernel 
panic page fault 12.

The instruction pointer is 0x8:0xc0621604

Digging about I found the faq here

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/advanced.html#KERNEL-PANIC-TROUBLESHOOTING

After following the instructions and running the following

nm -n /boot/kernel/kernel | grep 06216

I get the following two functions returned

c0621664 t sysctl_bus
c0621688 t sysctl_devices

From this information can anyone give me an idea of whats going wrong ?, or 
how/where I might go about fixing it ?. I have included the result of a boot 
attempt below.

...
real memory = 536748032 (511MB)
avail memory = 515559424 (491MB)
kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address   = 0x696370
fault code  = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc0621604
stack pointer   = 0x10:0xc0c21d48
frame pointer   = 0x10:0xc0c21d58
code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags= resume, 10PL=0
current process = 0 (swapper)
trap number = 12
panic: page fault
uptime: 1s


I havent gone any further in the update process, as I can still boot my machine 
using the old kernel now saved to /boot/safe. I didnt want to run the install 
world if the new kernel wont boot, fearing it would update and overwrite 
crucial bits of the OS and prevent the laptop from booting the old kernel.

I'm lost really in where to go from here or what the best options are to try 
and get the machine updated correctly. 

Thanks

Hi,

Im trying to decide on a sutable backup procedure for the systems we use. Id
like if possible to use a auto mount multiple tape device, that can
completly store and retrieve all nesecary data as quickly as possible. There
are two locations one needs only data backup, systems are not as important
here, as rebuilding from scratch and applying data restore is a lot more
feasible, the second location will need full system backups as well as data.
Im looking to achieve this with maybe two tape devices. My question is this,
What is the best way to go about this, eg what tape devices fitting these
specs are known to work well with BSD, what software would easily help me do
the backup and restore ?. Im newish to BSD systems admin and am trying to
minimise the learning mistakes but getting as much info as possible before I
start implementing anything.

Thanks in advance for any help

Alex
