Berkeley DB upgrade

Re: How use and manage a Berkeley DB 1.85?
Hello Nicolas Sorry for the delay. I know Berkeley 1.85 from Cyrus SASL. If you install /ports/databases/db42 you get dump (to a text file) and restore tools.

Unfortunately I don't think there are any friendly utilities to inspect the data. If you know any programming language (C, Python, Perl...), it's almost trivial to write one.

No, cause there's reasons there's so many db4* ports. Some interfaces changed along the way and depending software needs time to conform to it. However: You can set WITH_BDB_VER in /etc/make.conf and pick one. If you grep BDB /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.databases.mk you can quickly see that a portmaintainer has more power then you. - Is there any reason to upgrade? Other then diskspace and clutter, there is no reason to remove older versions as they are properly separated by the ports. But as said you can specify a default to be used when the port does not care which version 4 it needs. In Utopia this should slowly migrate out ancient versions. In the real world, there will be this one unmaintained app you really like that won't work with anything over 42 :p -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi! Just FYI, I didn't get any response to the message I sent to the port-maintainer. I do know they've been working on / releasing stuff on this port in the meantime.

I actually already tried p5-BerkeleyDB too. Had high hopes for it. It took a good 10 minutes or so to compile a new gcc, 3.2.23, first; but after that, everything went well. Except that it shows the same behavior. Compile goes fine; make tests too. But my app core dumps every, say, 30 times it accesses BerkeleyDB. Not sure why p5-BerkeleyDB thinks it needs a specific gcc, though 3.2.23 is the version I have anyway (FreeBSD 5.4) so I didn't know to warn you :-( If you want to pursue further here are some suggestions that I might try: 1) Make sure you are not doing anything non-standard like using a different thread library, or different CFLAGS. You never know... 2) Try using a different underlying database type if you can. E.g. if you use hash, then try btree or vice versa I don't know what your apps do, but make sure for example, that if you can have multiple instances which can write to the db at the same time that your are locking correctly. In 1.85 compatibility usage that means locking a separate file with e.g. flock and *not* locking the database file itself which doesn't work right. Waiting for 4.5 is an option, but I would worry that whatever change in 4.4 is making your app crash might also bite in 4.5. I could find nothing on google about perl+4.4 core dumping so I would harbour a suspicion that it is something about the way you are using BerkeleyDB which is causing the trouble. I could be wrong of course :-) --Alex PS I know there isn't a port yet, but you could just try compiling 4.5 from the sleepycat sources. The port for 4.4 doesn't look like it does anything sophisticated: just applies the latest patches from sleepycat, sets up some configure args, and has one small patch to dist/configure which changes -avoid-version into -version-info 0:0:0 in a couple of places.

I could find noth- ing on google about perl+4.4 core dumping so I would harbour a suspicion that it is something about the way you are using BerkeleyDB which is causing the trouble. Upgrading to 4.5 made no difference. I even installed an entirely new Perl (5.8.8) for the occasion. To no avail. I really suspect it's a locking issue. My app is a socketmap daemon, for sendmail, that does SPF queries and the like. So, concurrency is definitely happening when processes are forking. The one time I was actually able to log an error for the process, it said: Invalid locker id when opening the BerkeleyDB environment. That in itself may not necessarily mean anything (could just mean the env has become corrupted). But the occurance of the core dumps are consistent with a locking issue (under heavy, concurrent load). BerkeleyDB 0.30 (the Perl package) itself takes care of locking the shared environment. Paul Marquess, the author of BerkeleyDB (the Perl package), wrote me once: Apart from that you don't need to do anything -- Berkeley DB handles the locking for you behind the scenes. And it's certainly true for for 4.2: the 'tied' hashes can be accessed, concurrently, between processes, even under the most stringent load. Since an upgrade to 4.5 made no difference, I'm really thinking this is just a matter of BerkeleyDB 0.30 (the Perl package) no longer doing the locking properly. Or maybe there's something between BerkeleyDB 4.2 and 4.4 that has changed about the manner in which locks are done that BerkeleyDB 0.30 is unaware of. - Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Trouble with Berkeley DB version 4.4.20?
Hello, Am I the only person having trouble with Berkeley DB version 4.4.20? I've been using 4.2 for quite a while. Then I upgraded, a few days back. But a Perl process that actually uses it (BerkeleyDB-0.30) has become unstable. I've been ktracing it, and setting log-points myself, but it keeps core dumping at places where it accesses BerkeleyDB. Sporadically, but often enough. Naturally I compiled BerkeleyDB-0.30 against the correct libraries (in config.in). And it seems more or less ok, but not always. Finally, this morning, I just did a full restore from an earlier date; db44 is not working out for me, obviously.

Re: Hell Installing OpenLDAP/Berkeley-DB/Java
I found a different file to build BerkeleyDB and built it successfully: /usr/ports/databases/p5-BerkeleyDB Then I rebuilt OpenLDAP from here: /usr/ports/net/openldap23-server Following the OpenLDAP tutorial, I edited slapd.conf and created an example.ldif file. Then I ran: ldapadd -x -D cn=admin,dc=2012,dc=vi -W -f example.ldif (all correct for my domain/configuration). I was asked to give my LDAP password. When I entered it (exactly as is in the slapd.conf file) I was told that was incorrect: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) This makes me believe that Berkeley isn't properly installed. How can I test that? What steps do you take to properly install this duo?

Hell Installing OpenLDAP/Berkeley-DB/Java
Hi; I tried to install OpenLDAP, but it needs Berkeley-DB and complained that the version installed was incompatible. I tried compiling it without Berkeley (using GNU instead) but it wouldn't. I tried installing Berkeley DB without Java (for simplicity's sake), but that didn't work. I tried moving that installation to where the ports would be but still no go. So I tried a make of the berkeley-db port but that complained it needed a Java plug-in that had to be loaded manually because of licensing restrictions. So I went to the page it stated, agreed to the license, downloaded it and tried to install: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/cgi-bin/download?download=diablo-caffe-freebsd6-i386-1.5.0_07-b00.tar.bz2 I un-bzip2'd it, then untarred it, then entered it and unzipped the sun.zip file, and now I'm lost. There are no instructions! There's a README.html file which told me to go to this page: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/install.html but there's nothing of substance there. It only tells one how to install Linux binaries or RPMs, but I'm having to install from source. Good grief! Has anyone been through this crap before? What do I do? TIA, beno2 - How low will we go?
