I've pushed a fix for the package and seems that only missing thing was a ln -s from gcc to cc.

cc is part of gcc
as is part of binutils

Fetch and transfer the following to /tmp (with i.e. WinSCP on Windows. *nix users should know what to do :) ):

http://files.pfsense.org/packages/amd64/8/All/gcc-4.2.5.20090325_5-amd64.pbi
http://files.pfsense.org/packages/amd64/8/All/binutils-2.21.1.tbz

Then do the following via ssh:

pbi_add -f –no-checksig /tmp/gcc-4.2.5.20090325_5-amd64.pbi
pkg_add /tmp/binutils-2.21.1.tbz
ln -s /usr/pbi/gcc-amd64/bin/gcc42 /usr/local/bin/cc

Optionally install the latest Varnish3 package.
fetch and transfer http://files.pfsense.org/packages/amd64/8/All/varnish-3.0.4-amd64.pbi

ssh:
pbi_add -f --no-checksig /tmp/varnish-3.0.4-amd64.pbi

I'm looking for a way to include cc on this pbi.

So I logged in and also had to```
ln -s /usr/pbi/gcc-i386/bin/gcc42 /usr/bin/cc

and so when I try to start it manually I get this:

[2.1-RELEASE][admin@skynet.starbase.org]/root(57): varnishd -f /etc/varnish/default.vcl -s malloc,1G -T 127.0.0.1:2000 -a 0.0.0.0:8080
nm: not found
storage_malloc: max size 1024 MB.
Message from C-compiler:
cc: error trying to exec 'as': execvp: No such file or directory
Running C-compiler failed, exit 1
VCL compilation failed

Help would be much appreciated. :)

Cheers,

Also can you add..

• a way to edit 'vcl_hash'
• a 'null' option to 'Forward client IP' (I want to set this through HAProxy which sits in front of Varnish)
• a way to add acl's

Thanks! If I have some time this week I'll see if I can hack these changes in myself.

Is there maybe another version of this package that might work?

I tested another installation on pfSense on VM that is a 32bit and seems that it is suffering from the same problem. The vanish gives the missing cc error, and the cc symlink is not created on the system. Is it possible that I only have this error? Nobody uses vanish with latest relase of pfSense on x86 or x64?

Thanks,
Z.

ln -s /usr/pbi/gcc-amd64/bin/gcc42 /usr/bin/cc

Seems like GCC is downloaded during the package installation… but cc symlink is probably never created.

Here is a snapshot of status output during the vanish3 package installation:

Thank you for your help.

gcc is a dependence for varnish but on install script its on a another pbi.

Regarding this, should I try to reinstall the package?
