Creating pfSense 2.0 Developers ISO on FreeBSD Beta 8.1
-
Another dev and I have been making quite a lot of changes to the builder code over the weekend, polishing things up.
I don't see any reason why those other ports would have failed. They all work OK for me now, both on x86 and amd64.
# portsnap fetch && portsnap extract (Or update ports by csup, however you normally do it)
# cd /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts
# ./update_git_repos.sh
# ./clean_build.sh (Not really necessary most of the time, but shouldn't hurt, just adds time)
# ./set_version.sh RELENG_8_1 cvsup4.us.freebsd.org (or cvsup.livebsd.org) (Not needed except for the first run, really)
# ./apply_kernel_patches.sh
# ./build_pfPorts.sh (Actually build_iso.sh will run this, no need to do it on its own unless you are testing)
# ./build_iso.sh -
Thanks Jimp,
I'll give it another try… Hopefully I can get it to work! -
I'm not getting errors at the build ports phase but the build stops at the dfuife_part as well:
Checking BSDInstaller health… dfuife_curses missing [ERROR!]
Question, is it necessary to build and install any of the standard ports in /usr/ports before running build_iso.sh?

Ideally, no, but in the past it has been necessary to build at least PHP on the builder box (and more recently the pfSense PHP module).
Have you updated the git repos and done a full build today? I thought someone committed a fix for curses over the weekend.

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

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" ]; thenAnd $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:

Aaaah f*ck, no space left, so I can start all over.
Waisted hours....
