Making changes to haproxy package; how do I make them available to everyone?

Briantist

Yes, as far as I can tell all features are working. I am still running my own Outlook instance through it. All options in the package are there and appear to be working fine. The XMLRPC sync is good.

Any chance I can get access to this wiki page to update it once this goes totally live:
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Haproxy_package

Are you on 2007 or 2003?

Are you on 2007 or 2003?

Both, some locations are not migrated yet.

Any chance I can get access to this wiki page to update it once this goes totally live:

Ask core developers to create an acount at docs.pfsense.org to you.

Briantist

Hey marcello, are we ready to finalize the package? Is there anything else you need from me?

What's the best way to contact a core developer for wiki access without annoying them? I know PMing is generally frowned upon..

marcelloc

Just changed package version to 1.4.18 pkg v 1.0

Since I finish 1.2.3 compiling and testing I'll change there too.

to create an account at docs.pfsense.com, just send an email to wikiadmin@pfsense.org asking it.

Briantist

Sounds good, though I do not see the version updated.

marcelloc

I've republished package version change.

Briantist

Marcello, just want to say that everything is working great. Thanks so much for your help. I have wiki access and as soon I have some time, this week or early next week, I'll update the docs to reflect the changes.

I updated my cluster members today and noticed that the package still pulls files from your servers rather than the pfSense servers. Is that normal? Will it stay that way?

marcelloc

Package version 1.4.18 was not on ports when I published this update and also files.pfsense.org was not building haproxy everyday.

Since freebsd ports updated haproxy to 1.4.18 and it this package is available on files.pfsense, I will update package download link.

Briantist

Thanks again for everything; I may make more changes in the future but I think I'm done for a little while. I've updated the docs, and I referred to you by your forums name in case you didn't want your real name in there. Feel free to change that or let me know and I'll make the change.

Nice work on this package update. No issues at all. :)

Briantist

Marcello, HAProxy has released 1.4.19 which has a few important bigfixes in it. Can you update the binaries? If I could I would definitely do this myself..

Also the package still says it requires 2.0 and points to your server, though those are not very important.

marcelloc

Ok, I will update it.

If this update is also in freebsd ports, maybe tomorrow It's available on files.pfsense.org

Do you have freebsd 8.1 vms to compile it via ports?

Briantist

I don't actually know what "ports" is :-[

I have a FreeBSD 8.1 amd64 VM available. I was able to compile 1.4.18 before but I don't think I used ports. I'm willing to learn though..

http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ :)

It's how programs are distributed in source form for FreeBSD. If you have a standard FreeBSD install then you already have a huge collection of source code in /usr/ports.

To install ports do:

portsnap fetch
portsnap extract

To update do
portsnap fetch
portsnap update

marcelloc

changing ports to compile 1.4.19, it return erros

Maybe we will need to way ports update to be able to create haproxy 1.4.19 package
