Re: portsdb -Uu hung
Are you *sure* it's hung? -U does a make index in /usr/ports which takes *forever* as it has to run a make command in *every single port*. If you've just updated your ports tree with cvsup then consider running make fetchindex from /usr/ports which just grabs the latest pre-built version and then just doing portsdb -u, though anything that needs the .db file to be up-to-date will do this automatically. --Alex PS The thread you reference seems to be about portupgrade -a which is confusing since your subject line says portsdb -Uu. Though both part of portupgrade, the similarity ends there. Like Lowell said: Does it suck up CPU while it's hung? What does top show for CPU usage? You will probably not see any process hogging the cpu as, like I said, it's one short make after another after another after another ... repeat until sick. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: 'portsdb -Uu' vs 'make fetchindex' vs 'make index'
On Tue, Dec 21, 2004 at 05:34:06AM -0500, Gerard Seibert wrote: I am not sure if I quite understand this entire ports updating scenario correctly. I I run the command: 'cvsup ports-supfile', I then need to run either 'portsdb -Uu' or 'make index'. I also have the option of running 'make fetchindex' in place of either of those two proceeding commands. Is that correct? Yes, basically. Running portsdb -U will make an index. If you run portsdb -Uu you don't have to make index as an additional step. Additionally, portsdb -u will automatically be run when it needs to be run, but you can run it manually as well. One of the fastest ways to update your tree and index is to cvsup, then cd /usr/ports make fetchindex. You can run portsdb -u if you want, but you don't have to. It might help catch dependency problems if you do, however. I would assume, that I should run the 'make fetchindex' command immediately after running the 'cvsup' command. Yes, you can do that, as I mentioned above. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a better way to accomplish this feat? Test out different ways of updating, to find out which ones you want to use - for instance you can also use sysutils/p5-FreeBSD-Portindex - and then write scripts to accomplish it, and/or set it up as a cron job. - jt ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As the portsdb -Uu error message states, /usr/ports/security/drwebd
is non-existent (at least following a cvsup of the ports tree today,
I am not sure if it was there before) and so the portsdb -Uu run
fails with the error message shown above.
My FreeBSD version is RELENG_4 (FreeBSD-STABLE).
What is the fix for this please? Waiting until a new cvsup corrects
the error above, or...?
If you follow ports, I was told you also should also follow cvs-all. It
was fixed about an hour ago. So, it should have made it to your
favorite cvsup-mirror.
A faster fix is to edit the drweb_postfix make file and change the
drwebd entry on the PORTSDIR entry to just drweb.

If the dependency isn't there when the database is being built, portdb will complain (makes sense; you can't build that port without its dependencies, after all). It does, however, continue. So it makes sense that you would get a massive number of such complaints if you downloaded only a few categories of ports. If it's just the messages that are bothering you, redirect them to /dev/null when you build the portupgrade db. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
