Re: Firefox 21 not proceeding to URL

The PDF is not displayed nor is there any evidence that Firefox did anything at all. Now, entering the same URL using the same version of Firefox on a Windows machine, it works perfectly. No surprise there. Why is it failing on the FreeBSD machine? I posted on another forum and was told it works under Linux, so it must be a FreeBSD problem. Can anyone confirm this or have an idea what the problem is? This works for me: Edit - Prefernces - Applications - PDF: preview in Firefox. As well as other viewer (mupdf tested).

Re: USB in Windows7 guest
Hi Leslie and All, 09.01.2013 16:38, Leslie Jensen пишет: Hello. I posted this on the freebsd-virtualization list but got no answers so now I hope that someone here can shed the light for me. I have a Windows7 guest OS in Virtualbox on a FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE system. I've followed the instructions in the handbook for enabling USB-support in Virtualbox. In the machines settings I've ticked for activation of USB controller but not for USB2 because it needs an extension pack that's not available for freebsd if I've understood it right. I have an Epson V500 scanner that is recognized as an unknown device by the host OS. ugen7.2: EPSON at usbus7 Unknown USB device: vendor 0x04b8 product 0x0130 bus uhub7 I cannot get it to appear in the guest OS. Is it possible and if so what do I need to do in order to make it visible? Sure it's possible. For me it (FreeBSD-i386 9-STABLE host, WinXP guest) it just works. I'm not sure if it matters -- I install guest additions. I'd recommend double check your configuration.

They need to be running FreeBSD9.0 and I don't really care how I get there as long as it can be done over the network. If we were physically there, I would put a CDROM in and blow them away since it is such a large jump. I used an USB stick with full system, sources (/usr/src) and compiled binary (/usr/obj). Since the system is booted from USB, I have full control via ssh session. I can have staff members there install CDROM's that were remastered to use the serial console, but I am hoping that maybe we are moving past this sort of logistics. I just tried to unpack the 9.0 image using tar which has worked in the past to let one modify loader.conf but I got a bunch of errors this time about files that couldn't be created so maybe this is not the recommended headless installation technique any longer.

Re: Noob Jail question.
Dave d...@g8kbv.demon.co.uk writes: I've been reading the FreeBSD Manual (a dangerous thing to do during lunchtimes!) relating to Jails. Other than making my head spin, I'm finding it a tad dificult finding out just what you can/cant do with a Jail. Mainly, because I'm not familiar with a lot of the terms used, and though the man pages are no doubt correct as a reference, they don't explain it well, in as much as how to use it, well in my addled mind at the moment. I think I'd like to run Hiawatha in a Jail, as it seems the right thing to do with something that will be exposed to the www. (Comments/advice?) But, how do I arrange it to safely get (read only) access to the website data, without preventing the FTPD service from having access to update that data. FTPD will only be reachable from LAN side of the main gateway router, Hiawatha will have an outside world port forwarded to it by the router. What I'm asking I guess, is.. Can a jail'd app, reach outside the jail in read only mode. (I suspect, maybe?) Or can an app outside the jail, drop stuff off inside the jail? (For whatever reason, I suspect not?) If anyone understands what the heck I'm blathering on about, please explain it to me, as I think I've lost the plot. Comments, advice, brickbats etc? You may try to use sysutils/ezjail to install/manage/etc jails. Using ezjail-admin is quite easy. Ezjails are realy light (they use readonly mount_nullfs to a basejail rather then real filesystems). Then you may consider using one jail for FTPD with write access and an other jail for HTTPD server with read-only access (say, readonly mount_nullfs) to those written by FTPD files/filesystems. -- WBR, bsam ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Let's use dtrace to understand what's going on within 10 seconds
interval and normalize to 1 second:
-
% cat top-10-count-periodic.d
#pragma D option quiet
BEGIN
{
last = timestamp;
}
syscall:::entry
{
@func[execname] = count();
}
tick-10sec
{
trunc(@func, 10);
normalize(@func, (timestamp - last) / 10);
printa(@func);
clear(@func);
last = timestamp;
}
-
The result is here:
ftp://ftp.bsam.ru/pub/tmp/top-10-count-periodic.1.log.txt
OK, seems that we are mostly interested at mysqld and httpd processes
(well, not a surprise).
The following script is intended to test and quantize mysqld process:
-
% cat quant.d
syscall:::entry
/ execname == mysqld /
{
self-ts = timestamp;
}
syscall:::return
/ self-ts execname == mysqld /
{
@time[probefunc] = quantize(timestamp - self-ts);
self-ts = 0;
}
-
The result: ftp://ftp.bsam.ru/pub/tmp/quant.mysqld.1.log.txt
The same D script but for httpd process:
ftp://ftp.bsam.ru/pub/tmp/quant.httpd.1.log.txt
And now can you advise me what to do next? What should I pay
attention to? Thanks!

How can I find which program is trashing the disk? The system is
FreeBSD-7.0 with 15 jails. Thanks for your help.
Something like this would be a good start:
dtrace -n 'syscall::write:entry { @dist[pid,execname] = sum(arg2); }'
Let it run a few seconds, then hit ^C, and it will print the total bytes
written by each process during that period. You may also have to trace
writev and pwrite, since FreeBSD's dtrace doesn't include the sysinfo
provider that would let you count them all at once.
Data written to swap or mmap'ped files won't register here, but most heavy
writes aren't done with mmap.
Thanks, Dan! Dtrace is really a way to go.
Unfortunately dtrace is not available at 7.0. That means that
the system should be updated to 7-STABLE.
Are there other possibilities meanwhile?

Then remove all linux infrastructure ports by pkg_delete 'linux-*'. Unmount all linux filesystems (linsysfs, linprocfs) and delete linux base port by pkg_delete -f linux_baseyou_have. To be on a safe side clean /compat/linux. Remove any linux remnants from /etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/make.conf. Then just install linux-realpalyer (or any other linux application from ports). Mount linux filesystems if needed. Your linux apps should just work.

Re: Why in f10 scim doesn't work from skype?
Yuri y...@rawbw.com writes: When I switched from fc6 to f10 scim stopped working in skype. It shows the prompt but only English language is available. In fc6 scim worked fine from skype. Aha, this time you gave some additional info which may be helpful. I believe scim picks up environment variables: LANG, XMODIFIERS, QT_IM_MODULE, XIM, XIM_PROGRAM and displays languages based on them. So I think linux infrastructure modifies some of those variables. How can I know the current environment variables of the running process? Anyone has a solution for this problem? Not a solution but a wild guess... You get linux scim with -f10- ports semi-working. That may be due to the difference of directory/file structures for -f6- and -f10- cases. In general linuxulator first search a file/directory at /compat/linux prefix. If not found the search is made at / directory. But IFF needed file/directory is found at prefix /compat/linux the search stops. Usually we remove those directories (from a linux distro before installing) when native FreeBSD should be used. Example: /var, /tmp directories are removed form linux_base ports and are not installed to /compat/linux. So native /var, /tmp are used at run time. The same should be for scim configuration file as well as some other directories/files searched at run time. They should be removed so apropriate FreeBSD destination is used. I guess that there may be some directory/file structure difference between -f6- and -f10- cases which causes you a trouble. To be more precise, I suspect that some directory/file get created/installed at -10- case which prevent scim to work as expected. Besides, there may be a case if some needed linux files/libraries are not installed when using -f10- while they are installed when using -f6- ports. Please, give those assuptions a try and report back your results. -- WBR, bsam ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: Linux compatibility in FreeBSD

Did you mean using linux RPM database? Actually I'm running the i386 7.2 FreeBSD and the following package. %pkg_info |grep linu linux_base-fc-4_14 Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (for i386/amd64) FYI: You may use `pkg_info -Ix linux_base` for this. I already saw the linux compatibility in the hand book of FreeBSD, but I didn't find too much information regarding rpm packages. Is there any way to do it ? any help is really welcome ! Using RPM database is not supported since FreeBSD has its own package database for all applications including linux ones. Said that I don't mean it doesn't work. If you need to use RPM database to register applications that does not exist at ports you may give it a try. But the best way is to create ports for those applications and install them from ports. BTW, they really don't need to exist at the official portstree. You may place them, say, to /usr/ports/local. A PR with them will be a good thing though. -- WBR, Boris Samorodov (bsam) Research Engineer, http://www.ipt.ru Telephone Internet SP FreeBSD Committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

c++: invalid conversion from 'int' to 'const char*'
Hello List,
I'm porting a c++ application to FreeBSD. I've got an error:
-
~/work/src/FileChannel.cpp: In member function 'QString
FileChannel::errorString()':
~/work/src/FileChannel.cpp:251: error: invalid conversion from 'int' to 'const
char*'
~/work/src/FileChannel.cpp:251: error: initializing argument 2 of 'char*
strcpy(char*, const char*)'
*** Error code 1
-
A simle patch makes the application to be compiled without errors:
-
--- src/FileChannel.cpp.orig2009-09-12 13:08:28.0 +0400
+++ src/FileChannel.cpp 2009-09-12 13:08:41.0 +0400
@@ -248,7 +248,7 @@
QString FileChannel::errorString()
{
-strcpy(lastErrorString, strerror_r(errno, lastErrorString, 0));
+strcpy(lastErrorString, XXX: Fix me: errno should be here);
return QString(trUtf8(lastErrorString));
}
-
If I understand correctly, an integer value which is returned by
strerror_r() should be converted to const char*.
I have _very_ basic knowledge about c++. Hence my question.
Can someone provide a patch (a proof of concept)? Thanks!
