Various things in php (including the function to send mail) require /bin/sh.

I don't think it's the nginx.conf, the only thing I did was uncomment this
section...:

--8<---
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
#   
location ~ \.php$ {
  root   /var/www/htdocs;
  fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
  fastcgi_index  index.php;
  fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME \
$document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  includefastcgi_params;
}   
->8-

...after installing PHP. 

Good luck,
Christoph

Hello,

for me, it didn't work as well. I (think I) did everything needed, 
including
rrdtool-chroot enable, and I had the same effect as you - no graphs. 
Only

after copying /bin/sh the graphs started working. I didn't do much
investigation though.
Oh and: I'm running nginx, if that matters.

Can you please share your nginx.conf?  I couldn't get Syweb to work with
Nginx no matter what I've tried.

Thanks!

Hi,
for me, it didn't work as well. I (think I) did everything needed, including
rrdtool-chroot enable, and I had the same effect as you - no graphs. Only
after copying /bin/sh the graphs started working. I didn't do much
investigation though. 
Oh and: I'm running nginx, if that matters.

Thanks and regards,
Christoph

As documented in the rrdtool pkg-readme, you must do:
/usr/local/share/examples/rrdtool/rrdtool-chroot enable

You should look under /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/, it comes with a
*lot* of OpenBSD specific information..


Thanks.  I did run rrd-chroot enable, and changed rrdtool_path in 
setup.inc to /usr/local/bin/rrdtool (which is where rrdtool-chroot 
copies it in the chroot).  Even with that, nothing worked until I 
coincidentally copied /bin/sh to the chroot.


Maybe $this->exec($cmdline) in php (class_rrdtool.inc line 103) requires 
sh?  But that wouldn't explain if it works for everyone else.

I had the same question two months ago. To quote Antoine 


That's not enough.
As documented in the rrdtool pkg-readme, you must do:
/usr/local/share/examples/rrdtool/rrdtool-chroot enable

You should look under /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/, it comes with a
*lot* of OpenBSD specific information..

It worked perfectly for me. Please check out whole thread

Symon on 5.6

[Steve Shockley]

I've installed Symon/Symux/Syweb on a 5.6 machine for testing. 
Symon+Symux are up and running.  I installed apache-httpd-openbsd (at 
least until I'm familiar with httpd), set up the virtual host, and I ran 
the chroot enable script from rrdtool.


When I view configtest.php, I get the error:
apache or php setup faulty: cannot execute /usr/local/bin/rrdtool

For testing, I temporarily copied /bin/sh to /var/www/bin/sh, and it 
started working.  Removing it breaks it again.


Should I need to copy sh to the chroot, or am I doing something else wrong?

Thanks.
