    tar: Special header too large error

    update, it was indeed just stopping extraction when this error occurred. I know this as I have just run a test with GNU TAR and it continues to extract data beyond the point that BSD TAR had go to. Doesn't really cover BSD TAR in glory! Especially considering it was BSD TAR that created the...

    tar: Special header too large error

    Hi, I'm piping a bzip2 compressed tar file into tar on FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE and seeing this error. Anyone any idea what this may indicated? I suspect that after this error tar stops extracting any further data, I'd really like to get more data out of this tar file! I say suspect, because it's...

    building mod_perl2: Invalid perl5 version

    Ok, so if I change to latest binary packages I see: perl5: 5.28.2 -> 5.30.0 I've never used latest previously, are these considered stable? Is the only pro to quarterly that they change less frequently? thanks, Andy.

    building mod_perl2: Invalid perl5 version

    Sorry, poor wording. Installing from packages, no compiling. So its not the case that binary packages hace moved to 5.30 as per your original reply? Just to avoid misunderstandings, this has branched into two issues, firstly if binary packages perl version should be 5.30 why isn't mine? It...

    building mod_perl2: Invalid perl5 version

    Yep, aware of that, but 11.2 shouldn't be broken! But I was building from packages, and I did upgrade everything. I mentioned this in my original post. Pkg says there are no updates available, but my perl version is not 5.30 so this seems to possibly be the root issue. Why would this have...

    building mod_perl2: Invalid perl5 version

    Hi all, I've just updated a server, freebsd-upgrade to 11.2-RELEASE-p14, and all packages via pkg upgrade. No errors on either of these steps. Following this I have an issue with httpd core dumping, specifically this server runs Request Tracker and uses mod_perl2. Apache is up currently so...

    ZFS zfs - Filesystem-Migration - That's right?

    Hi, is your RAID Z2 array made up of only 3 disks perhaps? Can you post output of zpool status? PS actually maybe you need more than 3 disks for RAID Z2, still interested to see the zpool info..

    panic: solaris assert: offset + asize ...

    Hi, I'm not sure but looks like maybe a fundamental issue reading the disk. Have you tried booting from USB or CD to do some basic checks on the disk hardware, ie if disks are visible, if any partitions that should be there are intact, check SMART status, check if data is readable from disks...

    Unable to change user umask

    Hi, the issue is that each shell reads in config from different files. So the FreeBSD sh uses .profile, csh uses .cshrc (amoungst others) and bash uses .bash_profile (amoungst others).

    IPFW traceroute sendto: Permission denied

    Hi all, I've noticed that with IPFW enabled I'm not able to use traceroute, I see the following errors: # traceroute 8.8.8.8 traceroute to 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets traceroute: sendto: Permission denied 1 traceroute: wrote 8.8.8.8 52 chars, ret=-1 I have ICMP allowed...

    IPFW IPFW and Fail2Ban on FreeBSD 11.0

    PS you can also test if the ban/unban code works with these commands: fail2ban-client set sshd banip 10.10.10.10 fail2ban-client set sshd unbanip 10.10.10.10

    IPFW IPFW and Fail2Ban on FreeBSD 11.0

    Hi, I was just setting up ipfw with fail2ban and came across the thread. First thing, if you don't have a NOTICE Ban line in your logs then fail2ban isn't trying to block any IPs so you can forget about the actions because its not even getting there. FYI my ssh config in jail.local is: [sshd]...

    BIND AXFR not working

    Hi all, I have an with BIND, it seems a couple of weeks ago AXFR stopped working, possibly coinciding with an upgrade of BIND. I have just upgrade to the latest bind99-9.9.9 from 9.9.8 and also not working. I have a slave server and its timing out when connecting to the master, they are...

    Solved Dovecot2-2.2.24 doesn't understand its configuration?

    Basically you need to read through the comments in the config and set things as needed and uncomment sections as needed. There is also plenty of info out on the internet, ie: http://wiki.dovecot.org/QuickConfiguration

    ZFS Huge difference in space allocated between a UFS drive vs a 2-drive ZFS striped pool

    So the geom-stripe has less available space, but can you rsync the data to it? Does it fit I mean? The geom-stripe is UFS same as the source I assume? If you cannot fit the data on the geom-stripe then the issue isn't ZFS, maybe you have some hard or soft links that aren't being handled properly...

    ZFS Huge difference in space allocated between a UFS drive vs a 2-drive ZFS striped pool

    Oh, given you are not using a redundant RAID level you could consider turning off checksums, don't think they will account for much space but you will save a little. Of course you won't know if any on disk corruption occurs, however with RAID0 ZFS isn't capable of fixing them and its no worse...
