Userdir mod in apache2.2
Apache/2.2.6 (FreeBSD) PHP Version 5.2.5 FreeBSD 6.2 Trying to get the userdir module to work but it seems to fail all the time due to 'You don't have permissions' Main webserver works fine. Only when trying to go to the 'http://localhost/~user/index.html' I get the permissions error. when looking at phpinfo - loaded modules identifies mod_userdir I've uncommented the following in httpd.conf Include etc/apache22/extra/httpd-userdir.conf I've changed my extra/httpd-userdir.conf to where homedirs are in /data/username UserDir public_html (Also tried to put UserDir enable username) Directory /data/*/public_html AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit Indexes Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec Limit GET POST OPTIONS Order allow,deny Allow from all /Limit LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS Order deny,allow Deny from all /LimitExcept /Directory I've made sure that the whole /data/username/public_html is readable by everybody by a simple chmod -R 755 /data But I just cannot get my userdir to functions correctly. What am I missing? Thanks, Alain ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Release 7.0 Beta2
Thanks for the inputs. The keyboard responds in the Welcome screen. So I can stop and select different booting options. But later when the kernel boots, the usb controller driver gives an error. Here is what I saw in the bootup messages: ... usb1: host controller halted uhub1: usb device problem (IOERROR), disabling port 1 ... The system is Dell Dimension 3100 with Intel Pentium4 processor. When I googled, I found a related PR. ... kern/100746: system does not boot due to USB keyboard problem on Dell 3100 ... That bug was related to usb panic, and it seems to have been fixed. What I observe now is that the usb keyboard works in the boot loader, but fails to be configured by the kernel. Regards, Srinivas.

I will see why totem just-works {TM} with Ubuntu. While here it

Ogle is by far the best DVD player but VLC and MPlayer are able to play
stunning number of different proprietary and non-proprietary video and
audio formats.
I know that comment about ogle certainly used to be correct. but I think
that may possibly be dated information. My FreeBSD machine is pretty
new, squeaky-clean, and all of the following dvd players (ones which I
have tried so far, doesn't mean they're the only ones either) work just
great: vlc, xine, ogle. Even though kmplayer works, I found it's
interface (which uses mplayer and xine as backends) ssmed a little clunky.
Anyhow, it might be time for taking another looksee. All 3 of those
)vlc, ogle, xine) were really sharp and easy to use, good 5.1 audio
using my optically connected sound system.
I've never used vlc for DVD; nor ogle; am building.
but kmplayer works
--altho with fewer control flow options. And after compiling
in device atapicam into my KERNCONF, k3b still chokes.
K3b works fine or I should say as good as on any of major Linux
distribution. Something is wrong with your configuration.
Read very carefully
$ make showinfo /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b
Well, y'gotta cd to the k3b directory, but no prob; that I
remembered from before. I lpr'd it. It's clearly written
by one of us ( a fellow geek).
I may have some followups. I've been reading and re-reading
and re-re-reading the info page.
So.
For toys, Linux; for superior [unbeatable] stability, FreeBSD
is still first rate.

Depends what you mean by playing. Some people use Flash or Java for work
and FreeBSD is definitely not for them.
For me personally works boot as a professional tool and as life-stile
OS. But then it doesn't work for my mother in law and probably
it doesn't work for 99% of other casual computer users.
You're right; I shouldn't have been so dismissive about burning
a CD or DVD. (i'Ve created some data CD's for friends.)
vlc-devel is still building. Hopefully more will be working
after my reboot.

FreeBSD mail forwarder and SPF
Hello all, I secure my outbound e-mail with SPF. One of the ports maintainers ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) also secures his INBOUND e-mail with SPF. I tried to e-mail garga about a minor doc-bug, and got a bounce, since his mailserver didn't recognize mx2.freebsd.org as a valid MX for [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.openspf.org/Why?id=danm%40prime.gushi.orgip=69.147.83.53receiver=parati.mdbrasil.com.br My solution to the problem was a workaround (screw being nice, open a send-pr). However, the fact that this person is protecting his inbox in the same way as I am presents a problem: he's listed as a contact for these ports, and isn't reachable via it (but ironically WOULD be if I had no spf record). In the mean, I recognize that FreeBSD is a volunteer organization, but can there be some kind of either: a) policy requirement that people configure allow rules for the freeBSD mx? or b) modification to the forwarder so it re-sends instead of forwarding? I'd offer to help but my postfix foo isn't what it needs to be. x As technical types, coders, porters, etc, I feel we're beyond the level of end user for whom this would be too complicated. -Dan Mahoney -- Check it out, it's just like Christmas.

does sysinstall's Upgrade ever use the local system's shell?
Question:
Does the sysinstall Upgrade option have a dependency on the local
system's sh at any time during the install?
Details:
I have a system that I'm trying to rescue. It has a mix of
6.2-SECURITY and 6.3-BETA components due to a failure during the
freebsd-update minor-upgrade procedure. After some analysis and help
from cperciva, we think that this was due to possible filesystem
errors that have since been corrected.
On Colin's recommendation, to repair the system, I am not relying on
anything local to the system and instead, using sysinstall's upgrade
option from CD to upgrade 6.3-RC1.
Somewhere during or after the backup of /etc, I get this dialog:
Hmmm! I couldn't move the old kernel over! Do you want to
treat this as a big problem and abort the upgrade? Due to the
way that this upgrade process works, you will have to reboot
and start over from the beginning. Select Yes to reboot now
The verbose upgrade output ends here, with this error:
/mnt/stand/usbdevs
/mnt/stand/dhclient-script
4330 blocks
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: sh: Undefined symbol __sbmaskrune
This is the exactly the same error that I get when trying to run the
local system's sh. I'm pretty sure that the sh that comes on the
6.3-RC1 CD is OK. Is the installUpgrade.c system(mv) call here:
if (system(mv /boot/kernel /boot/kernel.prev)) {
if (!msgYesNo(Hmmm! I couldn't move the old kernel over! Do
you want to\n
treat this as a big problem and abort the
upgrade? Due to the\n
way that this upgrade process works, you will
have to reboot\n
and start over from the beginning. Select Yes
to reboot now))
systemShutdown(1);
... managing to invoke the local shell instead of the one on the CD?
Not knowing any better, if local binaries are being called for some
part of the upgrade, that would be a Bad Thing and I should open a PR.

firebird2 API woes
[apologies for cross-posting, but freebsd-database was not able to help] Hi, I'm having a hard time connecting to a firebird 2.0.3 server installed on FreeBSD 6.1 through the C API calls. The connection code is pretty much copy+pasted from the API documentation. However, all calls to isc_attach_database() cause the client library to segfault: #1 0x2852ceb4 in return_success () from /usr/local/lib/libfbclient.so.2 #2 0x28525179 in REM_attach_database () from /usr/local/lib/libfbclient.so.2 #3 0x2851386a in isc_attach_database () from /usr/local/lib/libfbclient.so.2 #4 0x284ece8e in _dbd_real_connect () from /usr/local/lib/dbd/libdbdfirebird.so #5 0x284eba19 in dbd_connect () from /usr/local/lib/dbd/libdbdfirebird.so #6 0x2808011d in dbi_conn_connect () from /usr/local/lib/libdbi.so.0 #7 0x0804982a in main (argc=1, argv=0xbfbfea2c) at test_dbi.c:91 The database I'm trying to attach to does exist, and I can attach to it using the isql command line utility. Is this a known issue? I have to admit that I'm not too familiar with firebird. All I'm trying to do is to upgrade the firebird driver of the libdbi-drivers project (http://libdbi-drivers.sourceforge.net, also available as a FreeBSD port). I'd greatly appreciate if someone more experienced in programming for firebird could give me a hint.

Totem is not good DVD player and that has to do nothing with the

I will see why totem just-works {TM} with Ubuntu. While here it

Ogle is by far the best DVD player but VLC and MPlayer are able to play
stunning number of different proprietary and non-proprietary video and
audio formats.
I know that comment about ogle certainly used to be correct. but I think
that may possibly be dated information. My FreeBSD machine is pretty
new, squeaky-clean, and all of the following dvd players (ones which I
have tried so far, doesn't mean they're the only ones either) work just
great: vlc, xine, ogle. Even though kmplayer works, I found it's
interface (which uses mplayer and xine as backends) ssmed a little clunky.
ogle fails due to some permissions problem:
ERROR[ogle_nav]: faild to open/read the DVD
DVDSetDVDRoot:: Root not set
p3 15:23 tao2 [1683]
With kmplayer, altho it works with virtually everything,
it is a bi tclunky. Also, it will not show the menu part
of my DVD. So far, vlc wins (in my lineup). But it's not
intuitive at all. A cheet-sheet of the 50 top places to click
would be a plus.
Anyhow, it might be time for taking another looksee. All 3 of those
)vlc, ogle, xine) were really sharp and easy to use, good 5.1 audio

It may be my last contribution befoore I cash out, but I *will*
do a thorough, reable piece on gtting k3b to work. ...Hopefuully!

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 To use ntpd with an HP GPS receiver on RELENG-6.2, I have a symlink from the first serial port to the HP GPS device: somehost# ls -l /dev/hpgps0 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 Dec 1 21:06 /dev/hpgps0 - /dev/cuad0 This works fine since the GPS receiver is attached to cuad0. Problem is, this symlink disappears whenever a reboot is needed, for example after patching the kernel. How best to preserve the symlink across reboots? I created an rc.local file making a new symlink, but maybe there's a better way. thanks dn -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFHXiTvyPxGVjntI4IRAtEZAKDyOsiRL1ilB3yUwGGH79IeZ65l6QCgrc2V OfqdzIvR9ua1kVtD+bdCzRc= =pfFP -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
