FreeBSD 9.0

[mmx]

Perhaps it's time to open up a "FreeBSD 9.x BETA" sub-forum and retire/merge the other release subs? :)

I have a feeling 9.0-RELEASE is around the corner (http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/9.0TODO/), as the code is frozen (http://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html).

p.s. I can beta test with a trial license if needed. :P

Hello,

We don't start DA development on an OS until it's "stable".
So once FreeBSD 9 is out, we'll start the process of building a box, setting up DA, etc..

Hi, 9.0-RELEASE is out. :D

[DirectAdmin Support]

Hello,

If anyone has a test box (FreeBSD 9, 64-bit), let me know, and I'll see if the current binaries work on it.
If they do, then we're only a few steps from beta.
If they don't, I'll have to setup a new box (many more steps).

John

[SeLLeRoNe]

John, if you need a test box with FreeBSD 9 i can setup it and send you access data for your tests.

Let me know here or via e-mail at support@crazynetwork.it

Regards

[SeLLeRoNe]

Since im not anymore familiar with freebsd cause is too many years i dont use it, anyone can send me a pm with a command line that will install all pre-requisite? Or any useful hint for have a read-to-install box for DA Staff testing purpose?

Thanks

I can have one up next weekend; very little chance of deploying it this week unfortunately. I currently have a 8.x box that will go to 9.0 very soon (my testing machine).

If you're going the custombuild route entirely, it'll take care of it all for you. You could install www/wget beforehand, but in the name of beta testing, I would follow DirectAdmin's installation instructions (http://www.directadmin.com/installguide.html) to maintain their requirements.


If you're willing to test & experiment (and don't mind wiping your installation a few times) see how installing lang/perl (5.14?), devel/pcre, devel/libtool, devel/autoconf, devel/automake, devel/autoconf-wrapper, devel/automake-wrapper and print/freetype beforehand affects DirectAdmin. That will be one of my upcoming experiments (and possible HOWTO) for fun. :D I would love to see a DirectAdmin system based entirely off Ports. I've been dreaming about writing "FreeBuild", "BSDBuild" or "PortsBuild" (alternative to custombuild) to install everything from Ports.

[SeLLeRoNe]

Yes i did, wget is necessary or fast mirror check will fail, already did some test and build fail somehow... if you wanna try or check the box let me know.

Ive created this VM just for test it for help DA Staff or someone that wanna test it, no problem on wipe, i just need to restore the snapshot on fresh installation i did, so, if you wanna take a look, just le me know :)

Err, my bad, I forgot to add the architecture suffix. Try:

# pkg_add -r compat7x-amd64
# pkg_add -r compat8x-amd64


You can also install them via Ports, check: /usr/ports/misc/compat*

a common cause of http/php compile failures is mentioned here:
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=213

[DirectAdmin Support]

Usually means the mysql libs can't be found in /usr/local/mysql/*.
Ensure the services.tar.gz exists:
/usr/local/directadmin/scripts/pacakges/services.tar.gz

which should contain the mysql file... but it will most likely need changes to our scripts/mysql.sh to find the correct version.

John

[SeLLeRoNe]

Ive manually builded mysql using ./build mysql and the php was able to compile, i was using default install way, now ive using the step-by-step selecting mysql 5.1 to be installed via custombuild.

Ill let you know once compile end with or without errors.

Ive also noticed that if run "mysql" command i got this error:


Shared object "libncurses.so.5" not found, required by "mysql"

So, maybe ncurses package get not installed for some reason or not correctly linked?

Regards

[SeLLeRoNe]

Tried install first ncurses using pkg_add but same result.

Actually the library seems to be correctly there...

Any hint?

Hi guys, don't worry about MySQL 4, or 5.1.. That's just the default when mysql.sh doesn't have the OS version listed.
With FreeBSD 9, it will include 5.5.20.

I've updated the update.tar.gz for mysql.sh, proftpd.sh and exim.sh to support FreeBSD 9 with the newly built packages, found here:
http://files1.directadmin.com/services/freebsd9.0-64bit/

and which are added to services_freebsd90_64.tar.gz (http://files1.directadmin.com/services/services_freebsd90_64.tar.gz)
Please allow 24 hours for files server rsync propagation, as the other files servers won't have it yet.

The setup.sh has also been updated to find the new services file.

The FreeBSD 8 binaries seem to be working on FreeBSD 9, so that will save us needing to build a new compile box (and a bit on our power bill ;))

The code-name in the licenses OS list is FB964, and is in ALPHA testing, so something is most likely going to break at install time, and there will be minimal support at this stage of the game.
Please post issues to the FreeBSD 9 64-bit BETA (http://www.directadmin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=80) forum for the time being.

Thanks to Andrea for providing us with the test box to compile the packages and to do very preliminary testing.

[DirectAdmin Support]

Actually, I did need to use this guide:
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=369

but I'm not sure if that was a result of installing FreeBSD 8 bits on the FreeBSD 9 box.. in any case, we'll find out when we do a few fresh installs.

This problem has persisted since FreeBSD 7.x. Each time I run ./build update, I must manually modify the 'build' script and remove the Kerberos references. I don't want to install the libraries as I have no use for Kerberos on a web server. I have always wondered why this was never taken into account: default FreeBSD installations do not install Kerberos, and DirectAdmin doesn't bother either. Why is it being referenced? It is the direct result of a lot of compile-time errors.

[DirectAdmin Support]

I'm going to update the build scripts simply use make instead of the longer version if FreeBSD is being used.
The line was likely added for the CentOS versions, and the compile "usually" works on FreeBSD, but it's not needed at all on FreeBSD, then we'll remove the CPPFLAGS part completely.

John

[wattie]

Works fine on FreeBSD 9 on my end... I am having problems with ipfw after the upgrade, but the rest is ok.

P.S. A little bug in the build script:

OK, so far everything is good and working properly. The problem mentioned above was not with ipfw but with NTPDATE application. I got ntpdate app running automatically at reboot. For some reason the firewall was stopping it and the system was hanging at boot.

This I guess has absolutely nothing to do with directadmin. Everything in DA works properly, all software is running well. The only "issue" is that error message when doing ./build update:

"Downloading .tar.gz...

DA Install (the setup.sh file) cannot work on FreeBSD 9 if there is no WGET installed from ports.

as far as i remember i did tell this to John and he did add a check for wget or fetch... are you using latest setup.sh or an old local copy?

I downloaded it directly from the server. Fresh FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 install. Sorry for the late reply.

It was not the only thing I needed. Here is my ports list. I was adding things as soon as they was needed (of course some of them added dependencies):


autoconf-2.68 = up-to-date with port

Looking at the list I manually had to add cmake (required for MySQL 5.5, elsewhere it was showing error), cyrus-sasl (for exim), perl-5.14 (for exim).

Only the "portupgrade" port was not required by anything.
