PFsense…
-
hello my freinds
im new in PFsense , i install PFsense 1.2.2 and then i made full updates for 2.0.1 release
version , and i tryed to install the python by this command ( pkg_add -r
python ) telling me this msg ( Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/python.tbz:
File -8unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) ) as i see there's
problem with packages-8.1 i entered to the site and i see its packages name
changed to packages-8.2-release …... plz any one can help , i appreciate -
Http://FTP:// is not a valid link ;)
Remove the FTP:// part and try again

Hmm I thought this was supposed to be fixed in 2.0.1 but it isn't for me either (also an upgrade). I thought they were switching to a local repo mirror instead? :-\
@http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=633:
Fixed path to FreeBSD packages repo for 8.1
Anyway you need to use the FreeBSD ftp archive for 8.1 to ensure compatibilty:
pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/All/python-2.6,2.tbz -
thank you for replying .. but once i press on pkg_add -r python
see this msgpkg_add -r python
Error: Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/python.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/python.tbz' by URLi entered to this website and i see that instead packages-8.1-release it was packages-8.2-release ,, so i guess i must updates the sources in pfsense , but i dont know how to do that ,,,,,,,

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 …...
-
Use the same pkg_add to install downloaded packages, just point to filesystem
pkg_add /path-to-package

Steve

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. ;)Steve

but what i have to do ?????
-
Where did you get this urlgrabber script from? What python version is it written for?
Steve

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

@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_rpmOk, 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 howim 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-*
