PFsense…

You need to specify the complete URL because it has changed like I outlined above.

Alternatively you can change the variable that pfSense uses to know where to look. I can't remember off hand what that is though. Hold on….

OK. First run:


setenv PACKAGESITE "ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/"

Then you can load packages as normal: pkg_add -r python

still can't add the packages :s.. im tryng to fetch them manual ,,,and i downloaded the packages but also the rpm command not found :s how to install the rpm packages also …...

marcelloc

Use the same pkg_add to install downloaded packages, just point to filesystem

pkg_add /path-to-package

afamnu

stephenw10

What are you trying to accomplish here?

Steve

afamnu

python setup.py bdist_rpm <====this command

stephenw10

Yes, but what does that python script do?

Where did you get it?

Steve

afamnu

i do cd urlgrabber-3.9.1
and then
python setup.py bdist_rpm

after that this error appearing

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 3, in <module>import urlgrabber as _urlgrabber

ImportError: No module named grabber</module></module>

Hmmm, well I can't comment on python script. Wrong python version perhaps?
Why are you trying to run URLGrabber on your firewall? It seems unwise. ;)

but what i have to do ?????

stephenw10

Where did you get this urlgrabber script from? What python version is it written for?

Steve

afamnu

http://urlgrabber.baseurl.org/download/urlgrabber-3.9.1.tar.gz this version

stephenw10

@http://urlgrabber.baseurl.org/:

It's really easy to build an RPM from the tarball. Simply unpack the tarball, cd into it, and do
python setup.py bdist_rpm

Ok, so you're trying to build an RPM file.
Do you realise that RPMs are not a FreeBSD format and hence not supported by pfSense?

Why are you trying to do this. What do you need URLGrabber for? If you tell us why you are doing all this we may be able to suggest an easier option. ::)

indeed i want to use the pfsense for Video cache,, nd plz see this

http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Setup_VideoCache_with_Squid
if there's another way to do that i wll be thankfull to show me how

im new to use pfsense this's the first time to me :).. so thank you for your help

Sorry I may be being thick here but there is a FreeBSD 8.1 package for urlgrabber so why not just install that.

I should also add that it depends on ca_root_nss-3.12.11_2, curl-7.21.3_2, py27-curl-7.19.0_1, python27-2.7.2_3

Just read that link you posted to a pfsense how-to. Please be aware that it is now py27-*

stephenw10

Ah! Well now we are getting somewhere. ;)

Have you added all the python packages in that link?

Steve

afamnu

yes steve already i did it ,,,

#pkg_add -r python

pkg_add -r py25-bsddb

pkg_add -r py25-gdbm

pkg_add -r py25-sqlite3

pkg_add -r py25-tkinter

but everything i did it manualy,,
same as pkg_add -r ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.2-release/databases/py26-gdbm-2.6.6.tbz

Those packages you added are based on python25 the urlgrabber package you are using is based on python26. So the first thing that springs to mind is your dependencies are the wrong version. If you take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ports and do a search for urlgrabber you can view the changes for each package and it's dependencies.

Just to confuse things even further the most recent port/package, which also runs on FreeBSD 8.1 is based on python27 but I suggest you stick to the python26 tree.
