Creating pfSense 2.0 Developers ISO on FreeBSD Beta 8.1
-
HI Jimp,
well the good news is that it went through your listed steps as you outlined earlier cleanly this time!
(except this…
src/NetworkInterfaces.c:54:47: error: linux/if_ether.h: No such file or directory
src/NetworkInterfaces.c:55:92: error: linux/if_packet.h: No such file or directory
src/NetworkInterfaces.c:56:46: error: linux/if_tun.h: No such file or directory
)So, it is the cleanest build so far...
But, I still got the dfuife_curses error at the very end:
Checking BSDInstaller health... dfuife_curses missing [ERROR!]
Everything else is clean!
How are you getting dfuife_curses to build?
Are you building manually?
I also set environment variable force-pkg-register
#> setenv FORCE_PKG_REGISTERNot sure if that helped with the cleaner build…
But looks like the ISO still isn't going to be generated until I solve the dfuife_curses issue.regards

But looks like the ISO still isn't going to be generated until I solve the dfuife_curses issue.I'm not sure why that is still failing. You might try to rm -rf /usr/local/pfsense-clone/ and then run the build again.
That, or:
cd /usr/home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/installer/ports/sysutils/dfuife_curses
make install clean
And then redo the build.

Hi Jimp,
ok thanks - I'll try it.

Hi Jimp,
i think there was a typo in the directory - but will ask just in case.
I cd /usr/home/pfsense/installer/ports/sysutils/dfuife_curses.here's what I get when I try to make install clean…
freebsd81rc1386# make install clean
===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
===> License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSEDistfile dfuife_curses-1.5.1.tar.gz not found!
This is an 'INTERNAL' port, meaning that the distfile is not retrieved
from the Internet, but rather created from a local checkout of the
BSD Installer CVS repository. Please see the shell scripts in the
scripts/build directory of the repository for more information on how
to create these distfiles.
*** Error code 1Stop in /usr/home/pfsense/installer/ports/sysutils/dfuife_curses.

Hi Jimp,
1 more…
I tried to remove the dir pfsense-clone - but didn't find it.
I assume that is now called pfsense-fs? -
-
thanks Jimp,
Now that I've isolated it down to 1 issue (dfuife_curses)…
I was wondering - how can I test whether it will fail on dfuife_curses first before trying to run build-iso.sh?that way I can save a good 1+ hours on building beforehand...
Any tricks?
regards
TJ -
The test is:
if [ ! -f "$PFSENSEBASEDIR/usr/local/sbin/dfuife_curses" ]; then
And $PFSENSEBASEDIR is usually /usr/local/pfsense-fs, so look for:
/usr/local/pfsense-fs/usr/local/sbin/dfuife_curses
-
Hi Jimp,
that did it!
here's what I did:#> rm -fr /usr/local/pfsense-fs
#> ./rebuild_bsdinstaller.sh
#> ./build-iso.shthanks for all your outstanding support! You were very responsive!
Hopefully now I can make the customizations I need to make… :-)regards

Gonna bump this thread.. Trying to build a pfsense ISO and getting a ton of patch rejections.
My pfsense-build.conf was generated using set_version HEAD. I added the date line in the 8.1 supfile (even though the date is before the 8.1 release?)
Attached are my pfsense-build.conf and build log. I looked at some of the rejections and some of the patches seem like they are for a completely different source tree
-
It should be building against RELENG_8_1 with no date= line.
-
Actually tried that first, outputs the same rejection errors.
-
make sure the supfile being used actually references RELENG_8_1 and has no date line, don't trust the name of the file.
-
Gah, I trusted the file but it referenced RELENG_8_0. Also had a date line. Seems to be working fine now.
-
Just trying to compile and build ISO but got a lots of patch error. Actually I trying to the new kernel compile. Any shortcut just to get just a kernel compile? I needs to test a cdce driver for my wimax usb device. It's used usb-ethernet interface.
-
Right now I am trying to create a pfSense 2.0 ISO following this howto: http://devwiki.pfsense.org/DevelopersBootStrapAndDevIso
The only thing I modified was the /etc/make.conf to exclude the ath(4) driver from compiling.Also got some errors along the way:
>>> Building olsrd >>> Building port olsrd src/NetworkInterfaces.c:54:47: error: linux/if_ether.h: No such file or directory src/NetworkInterfaces.c:55:92: error: linux/if_packet.h: No such file or directory src/NetworkInterfaces.c:56:46: error: linux/if_tun.h: No such file or directory src/Bmf.c:52:47: error: linux/if_ether.h: No such file or directory src/Bmf.c:53:75: error: linux/if_packet.h: No such file or directory >>> Building perl5.10 >>> Building port wol the O_NONBLOCK symbol with a syntax error. This is apparently a sh error. Rerunning Configure with ksh apparently fixes the error, then please read the section "64 bit data in perl 5.6.0 and 5.6.1" /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/perl/man/man3/CPANPLUS::Error.3 >>> Ports with failures: 0 >>> Building athstats...main.c: In function 'getfmt': main.c:73: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strcasecmp' Done! After cleaning of the build directories: >>> Fetching BSDInstaller using CVSUP... >>> Updating BSDInstaller collection...Done! cp: directory /usr/home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/../../installer/installer/scripts/build does not exist .: Can't open ./pfsense_local.sh: No such file or directory >>> Setting CVSUp host to cvsup7.freebsd.org
….
Aaaah f*ck, no space left, so I can start all over.
Waisted hours.... -
And AGAIN it failed. No clue about the cause this time.
Request to developers: Please remove the ath(4) driver from the kernel and add it as separate module to /boot/kernel/ so that it is possible to update it by users without having to recompile everything that does not even will go without errors.
edit: the log from Putty, saved everything from running ./menu.sh to end: http://www.ravenslair.nl/files/Putty-pfSense.log
edit2: saw a familiar error, from the previous page: dfuife_curses missing [ERROR!]
Hi Jimp,

JamesThe 1st command says "Operation not permitted" at most lines, "Directory not empty" on the rest. And yes, logged on as root.

3rd command:
not found., underscore instead of - ….(Another) edit:
I now actually have an ISO, but not where it was supposed to be according the howto. Found it at /tmp/builder ??? ??? -
Just tried the ISO.
Apparently it is not possible to prevent a driver from being compiled into the kernel, or I am doing something wrong.
According to Google adding WITHOUT_MODULES = ath to /etc/make.conf should be enough, guess it's not. -
Building an iso works for me on a builder I setup today…
./set_version.sh HEAD cvsup.example.com me@example.com ./update_git_repos.sh ./apply_kernel_patches.sh ./build_pfPorts.sh ./build_iso.sh
I don't use the menu myself. (I've been using the builder code since before the menu existed… :-)
Though after you update the repos you probably want to edit the kernel configs in /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/conf/pfSense*.8* to make your changes. Don't update the git repos again unless you want to lose your changes (or you could check them in locally I suppose...)
Also look at MODULES_OVERRIDE in the pfsense-build.conf file, you could set it like so:
export MODULES_OVERRIDE="i2c ipmi acpi ndis ipfw ipdivert dummynet fdescfs cpufreq opensolaris zfs glxsb runfw if_stf ath"
and that should cause ath to be built at a module instead, if I'm remembering correctly. The other values there are the default contents of MODULES_OVERRIDE from pfsense_local.sh
-
The maker of the howto (who I contacted) suggested modifying /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/conf/pfSense*.8* too (which I did), but that did not do anything. Driver is still in there.
Gonna try the MODULES_OVERRIDE next, see if that does what you said.
edit: I do not see MODULES_OVERRIDE in that file ???
