      I am trying to build pfSense from scratch and following steps given in http://devwiki.pfsense.org/DevelopersBootStrapAndDevIso
      I have tried several times in last 7 days but still not successful.
      I have tried to build on FreeBSD 8.3 , 9.1 and also on 8.1.

        There isn't enough detail there to help at all.

        What version of pfSense are you trying to build?
        What part gave you errors?
        What were the errors?

        The process on that page works, I just followed it and updated it not long ago.

        It's also been discussed elsewhere here on the forum several times.

          I had selected version RELENG FreeBSD 8.3 + R at the time of build and my FreeBSD Version is 9.1.

            The "operation not supported" errors are normal, not fatal.

            And we have no supported build on FreeBSD 9.1. Use the correct matching version of FreeBSD for the version you're building (8.1 for pfSense 2.0.x, 8.3 for pfSense 2.1)

                The openvpn22 build error should be fixed now.

                To recompile it, just run:

                cd /usr/home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts
./build_pfPorts.sh openvpn22

                The ioncube error isn't important, it isn't a critical module and it isn't likely to be needed anyhow.

                For the installer issue, try running:

                cd /usr/home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts
./fixup_git_repo_urls.sh 
./update_git_repos.sh && ./clean_build.sh && ./apply_kernel_patches.sh
./rebuild_bsdinstaller.sh

                And then try to build another iso.

                    Hi,

                    Can anyone help me ? I have keep tried for this for last 2 week but still successful. Although I was successfully built the ISO out, but I still see there is some port error for syslog-ng ,  openssl  and IONCUBE ?

                    1. May I know why ISO still able to built although there are some error on ports ? I want to know some logical concept behind this.

                    2. May I know how to settle the error at above ?

                    Thank you very much if anyone could help me.

                    Best Regards,

                      Hi. Building ports and building iso are individual. Building ports step builds and installs ports to computer you work in. In the next steps, the essential binaries and other files for pfSense are copied to pfSense's root by using copy.list.WHATEVER. If a file doesn't exist to copy, they are listed in the /tmp/pfPort/copy.list file.

                        First of all, thank you for your valuable information. I found that inside my /tmp/pfPort/copy.list it stated some error like following. May I know, do you any idea of what causing the error ?
