LightSquid and 500 - Internal Server Error

jimp

Last time I had a problem, the instructions in this thread worked for me.

In summary:
While it was installed in the WebGUI, go to the shell.
pkg_delete lightsquid*
ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl
Go back to the webgui and install it again.

After that, it worked like a charm.

ipnet

So, you mean to run the pkg_delete command before uninstalling the package from the GUI? Humm, I´ll try! Thanks.

Yes, run the pkg_delete command while it is still installed from the WebGUI.

I also added this procedure to the Wiki as an FAQ, so let me know if it doesn't work for you.

ipnet

:-\ no, it doesn´t work for me. The uninstall goes ok but the symlink tells me that there is already a /usr/bin/perl file. Should I delete this file and run the symlink again? About to give up with lightsquid… :( . Oh! just the graphics interface (graph.cgi only involved) is giving me trouble. Numeric data shows ok.

Regards.

What do you see when you try this?

# ls -l /usr/bin/perl

It should look like this:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19 Dec 13 17:30 /usr/bin/perl -> /usr/local/bin/perl

You can also test perl like so:

# /usr/bin/perl -v

You should get a short answer stating the version and license info.

You might also try looking in the lighthttpd error log:

# cat /var/log/lighttpd.error.log

ipnet

What do you see when you try this?
Code:# ls -l /usr/bin/perl

It should look like this:
Code:lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 19 Dec 13 17:30 /usr/bin/perl -> /usr/local/bin/perl

Yes, I have somethig like it. Only permissions vary. 777 instead of 755

You might also try looking in the lighthttpd error log:
Code:# cat /var/log/lighttpd.error.log

cat /var/log/lighttpd.error.log

That´s the problem...graph.cgi compilation fails...

jimp

What about these?

# find / -name "GD.pm"
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach/GD.pm

# pkg_info | grep -i "gd-2*"
gd-2.0.35,1         A graphics library for fast creation of images
p5-GD-2.39          A perl5 interface to Gd Graphics Library version2

# cat /var/db/pkg/p5-GD-2.39/+REQUIRED_BY
lightsquid-1.7.1_1

I'm not sure why yours wouldn't be properly pulling the dependencies like it should.

I suppose you could also try to remove lightsquid, gd, p5-GD, and so on and reinstall.

I wonder if perl uninstalled, removed the GD lib, but the package info for GD is still hanging out and thinks it is installed.

Sounds like a real mess, but recoverable if that's the case.

If yuu not solve you problem up to monday, i ready online help to you.

ipnet

No need to do that dvserg. Thanks a lot anyway. It is not critical for us right now. We´ll try to debug this pointing to the GD graphics package.

I still get the "500 - Internal Server Error" on pfSense 1.2-RELEASE

When I type:

# pkg_info | grep -i "gd-2*"

I get no output - these two packages are not installed. How can I get them installed?
