Cvs.bsdinstaller.org down? Can't bootstrap the developer install

bblacey

I am trying to bootstrap a developer environment and have left the dev_bootstrap.sh script running since Friday but it is unable to connect to cvs.bsdinstaller.org. The error message is "Connection refused" - does anyone know if the cvsup host is down? If so, does anyone have a work-around to this problem (e.g. mirror, etc.?)

For reference, this is the idiom that fails.


cd $HOME_PFSENSE/tools/builder_scripts

# Update BSDInstaller
./cvsup_bsdinstaller

Thanks,
Bruce

Try this instead:

fetch http://www.pfsense.com/~sullrich/bsdinstaller/installer.tgz
tar xzvpf installer.tgz -C /
cd /home/pfsense/installer/scripts/build/
./create_installer_tarballs.sh && ./copy_ports_to_portsdir.sh &&
./build_installer_packages.sh

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the help but the above line, specifically the create_insatller_tarballs.sh, always fails as follows:

The CVS directory for the installer probably doesn't exist in the usual location because the manual work-around doesn't install it using cvsup. I created a build.conf file in the build directory to override the CVSDIR to /home/pfsense and re-ran the original command however that failed at a later point as follows:


...snip, snip, snip...

+ cd /home/pfsense//installer/ports
+ find . -name work -print
+ rm -rf
+ cd /home/pfsense
+ tar zcvf /usr/ports/distfiles/bsdinstaller-2.0.2006.1009.tar.gz --exclude CVS installer
tar: Failed to open '/usr/ports/distfiles/bsdinstaller-2.0.2006.1009.tar.gz' : No such file or directory
#

I checked the contents of /usr and the ports directory does not exist for some reason. In fact, here are the search results for bsdinstaller:


find / -name '*bsdinstaller*' -print
/usr/local/lib/lua/bsdinstaller-2.0.2006.0728
/var/db/pkg/bsdinstaller-2.0.2006.0728

Do you have any other ideas or suggestions?

Thanks again for your help,

@bblacey:

@sullrich:

./create_installer_tarballs.sh && ./copy_ports_to_portsdir.sh && ./build_installer_packages.sh

Thanks for the help but the above line, specifically the create_insatller_tarballs.sh, always fails as follows:

Yep, I also used the build.conf file to put the CVSDIR in place…. (/home/pfsense)
That dit it for create_installer_tarballs.sh and copy_ports_to_portsdir.sh.

build_installer_packages.sh still bails out, thought - it seems that more (complicated) paths aren't set up well in the dev edition.

Actually, I just heard from Chris and he is pretty sure that he fixed the cvs.bsdinstaller.org access problem. I can't verify it until tonight but you might want to try the stock dev_bootstrap.sh bootstrap script at this point to see if it makes it past the bsdinstaller cvsup step.

Gertjan

Yep ;D

The bootstrap (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/dev_bootstrap.sh) works right now.
Still got a (non significant ??) error when ending the bsdinstaller :

…pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256
Creating package /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/conf/packages
Registering depends:.
Creating gzip'd tar ball in '/home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/conf/packages.tgz'
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/bsdinstaller.
Bootstrap completed.

Building iso......
....

but I think I saw this one before - it doesn't stop from building valids …. builds :)

Thanks for the tip.
