Installworld fails on 7.0-RC1
Hello, Hope the new year finds everybody well and not too hung over :) ... posted a bit earlier with BETA4 but just wanted to state that installworld still fails for me on 7.0-RC1 - uname -a = FreeBSD ssfbsd.securestate.org 7.0-RC1 FreeBSD 7.0RC1 #1: Tue Jan 1 10:28:19 EST 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 The entire build output (alo script) can be found at: https://www.nan-elmoth.net/fbsd/7.0-rc1.installworld.txt Repost of current issues with 7.0: --- Issue 1: I originally built my source with WITHOUT_TCSH=YES defined but then discovered later that OpenOffice.org needs it to build. I can manually go into /usr/src/contrib/tcsh and make and make install but when I attempt to rebuild world (after removed WITHOUT_TSCH=YES from src.conf) it dies. See: https://www.nan-elmoth.net/fbsd/buildworld.tar.gz --- Issue 2: To resolve Issue 2 I simply stick WITHOUT_TCSH=YES back in my src.conf and make buildworld. Once this completes I continue to follow UPDATING and make kernel (just fine) and reboot into single user mode. Once here though make installworld FAILS. As you can see my kern.securelevel is correct and I know for a fact zfs supports symlinks so got me. To get around this I do it the old fashion way and make installkernel and then make install continuing to follow UPDATING after this (make delete-old and mergemaster -i). See: https://www.nan-elmoth.net/fbsd/buildworld_no_tsch.tar.gz https://www.nan-elmoth.net/fbsd/makeinstallworld.tar.gz Help on the above issues would be appreciated. I can provide more info as needed or troubleshoot further if you provide me exactly what you want me to do.

Re: Various Issues with 7.0-BETA4
Do you have zfs_load=YES in /boot/loader.conf? Scot: Shouldn't have to do this as zfs in compiled in. Did you create the zfs structures and file system while in single user mode with root mounted read-only? If so, this is a known feature and If so not intentionally ... don't remember to be honest. it won't be fixed: you need to a) mount root read-write and b) run /etc/rc.d/hostid start before /etc/rc.d/zfs start. To fix it, mount root read-write, remove zpool.cache file (if any) from /boot/zfs, run commands from b and then run zfs import -f until you have your zfs file systems online. Then reboot into multiuser mode - it should work now. Never modify zfs without steps a and b, some combinations of such modifications lead to kernel panics or possible data loss. Ja .. that def worked. Thanks much Ivan. I think the step I was missing in my fixes (or when working from single user mode) was calling /etc/rc.d/hostid never could figure out why I had to force input my pools (always in use) and that was most likely it. Just FYI above mainly worked minus the zfs import -f step ... had to do zpool import -f instead. I am guessing just fat fingered on your end but figured I should stick it in my response for the archives in case anybody has the problem and actually searches them. BTW, is that known feature documented anywhere .. .can't imagine I am the only guy that has hit this problem and it happened to me on all 3 ZFS systems I have build on FBSD. Googled quite a bit before posting over the last week or so but this is the first time I am seeing a fix. As for the other problems: presence of /usr/lib32 is not influenced by kernel build options. I don't know what influences, but the kernel doesn't. Are you running java and other applications in 32-bit mode? Why? Not intentionally running anything in 32-bit mode but trying to track down some odd problems (namely java, xchat, and slow X responsiveness (e.g. ~2 min to open a gnome-terminal from time of click) and one of the errors I always got on boot was something about 32 compatibility and not finding /usr/lib32 So took a look at /usr and noticed I do not have a lib32 and then from inference (bad or good) it appeared I should from the above error message and http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-amd64/2004-March/000966.html (ja very old and referencing FBSD6). Figured I was in error not having it as: 1) I have options COMPAT_IA32 deifned in kernel 2) WITHOUT_LIB32 is NOT set in src.conf (implying that it should be built by default from my understanding of how world is built) Just trying to narrow things down one at a time. Thanks much on the ZFS issue. Now the build and install world issues :) (and hopefully once all fixed the java / xchat issues will magically clear up :( ALCON: When I got my original message from the server it appeared to strip my attachments.

Various Issues with 7.0-BETA4
Hello, Having various issues with 7.0-BETA4 and not sure where to begin. Going to post multiple issues here so please bear with me. The ultimate goal of course is 7.0-BETA4 working cleanly in addition to associate ports (e.g. I can't get xchat or java to work either (though all my others port do) and I think its related somehow to this)). Feel free to point me at another list if applicable. EDIT: Big text attachments so I compressed. - Background: Install 7.0-BETA2 off the amd64.iso. - Background: / is UFS, /usr is ZFS - uname -a = FreeBSD ssfbsd.securestate.org 7.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4 #0: Mon Dec 10 08:36:52 EST 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Issue #1: For some reason zfs_enable=YES in rc.conf doesn't work. It doesn't seem to auto mount my zfs mounts which is a PITA. Currently I am forces (each time I reboot) to boot into single user mode, mount all my drives, then exit, continuing into multi-user mode. The interesting this is step 3. 1) fsck -p 2) mount -u / 3) zfs 4) zfs mount -a 5) exit NOTE: If I skip #3 and immediately do #4 it mails. For some reason I have to to a straight zfs call. NOTE: If I immediately go to multiuser mode skipping manually mounting not only does zfs not mount but I have to re-force import the tank pool (e.g. step 3.5: zpool import -f tank) --- Issue 2: I originally built my source with WITHOUT_TCSH=YES defined but then discovered later that OpenOffice.org needs it to build. I can manually go into /usr/src/contrib/tcsh and make and make install but when I attempt to rebuild world (after removed WITHOUT_TSCH=YES from src.conf) it dies. See attachment buildworld) --- Issue 3: To resolve Issue 2 I simply stick WITHOUT_TCSH=YES back in my src.conf and make buildworld (attachment: buildworld_no_tcsh). Once this completes I continue to follow UPDATING and make kernel (just fine) and reboot into single user mode. Once here though make installworld FAILS (see attachment: makeinstallworld). As you can see my kern.securelevel is correct and I know for a fact zfs supports symlinks so got me. To get around this I do it the old fashion way and make installkernel and then make install continuing to follow UPDATING after this (make delete-old and mergemaster -i). Issue 4: For some reason I don't have a /usr/lib32 built even though COMPAT_IA32 is defined in my kernel. I am guessing this is causeing other issues later on as I have odd issues I can't track down xchat and java (see the ports list for the xchat segfault w/ libc) .. Java simply dies with no error or segfault I can see (and I have no idea how to debug java itself). - Help on the above issues would be appreciated. I can provide more info as needed or troubleshoot further if you provide me exactly what you want me to do.

Re: [fbsd] HEADS UP: FreeBSD 5.3, 5.4, 6.0 EoLs coming soon
Lots of knashing of the teeth on this one but lets face it, it had to die sometime. For all the 4.x users still out there (and plenty of them have deep pockets) no reason you can't just hire third party support (possibly even a current developer); hell get together and maybe pool your resources. Thats just how life is for legacy systems, we are all mature enough here in the tech world to know this. No reason you can't sell your CIO's on this when I am guessing they are shelling out millions on other vendors. -Peter ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: FreeBSD 6.1 Tor issues (Once More, with Feeling)
Hey Fabian, To you have pf running? If so can you turn it off for a bit a see if you still crash. On my box I was getting all sorts of witness kbd backtraces on pf and since turning pf off (maybe a week ago), haven't crashed yet. Going to let it keep running unmetered for another 2 weeks and see if I crash or not. -Peter ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: FreeBSD 6.1 Tor issues (Once More, with Feeling)
--- Fabian Keil [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There was a request for Tor related problem reports a while ago, I couldn't find the message again, but I believe it was posted here. Is anyone on this list running a Tor node on FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE or later with similar or higher load? I am hitting the same issue still Fabian. I had that PR closed as works for me with insignificant testing. I am still crashing (as before) but maybe only once every week or two instead of every couple hours with 6.1 RELEASE. The PR really should be reopened. Couple other folk have emailed me with similiar issues offline (and also spoke with it about me on IRC). I am still 99% sure this is NOT A TOR ISSUE!!! I have spoken with many tor users on other platforms and the actual developers and this is not seen by any of them. I can also recreate this crash NOT running tor but just generating a heavy load with freenet and i2p. My gut feeling is still a network code regression between 5.x - 6.x with the stack rewrite. I am at a loss how to troubleshoot this anymore (as noted in the PR and my earlier email). I truly hope somebody (e.g. a developer) can shed some light on this issue or troubleshoot it. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
