    Solved cargo-c compile fails near the end with SIGKILL

    I think you are correct: # dmesg ... swap_pager: out of swap space swp_pager_getswapspace(11): failed pid 3749 (rustc), jid 0, uid 0, was killed: failed to reclaim memory pid 3750 (rustc), jid 0, uid 0, was killed: failed to reclaim memory pid 897 (smbd), jid 0, uid 0, was killed: failed to...

    Solved cargo-c compile fails near the end with SIGKILL

    devel/cargo-c (v. 0.9.28) compile has a "Building" progress bar and at 344/348 the process appears to have stopped because of a watchdog timer? Initially the vast majority of cargo jobs complete in about a second. Several appear to take as much as 5. It does appear that as the last job in the...

    Synth can't find packagesite.pkg

    No. that appears to be the obvious thing and synth upgrade-system appears to be running happily. I guess I don't understand the basic function? Am I replacing the FreeBSD pkg repository with my own? I was following a blog and it was recommended to use ccache but after installing Synth, pkg...

    Solved Confused about using git for ports

    I'm not overly facile with git; so I followed the instructions in ShlLuser's post and it just says: So, if I'm using a branch, I have no idea which one? Presumably I'm using "main?" And what does "Already up to date." mean? That being said: git checkout 2023Q3 appears to work.

    Solved Confused about using git for ports

    I'm fundamentally confused about using git to maintain the ports tree: it's not updating I just updated to 13.2 and performing a pull: ** root@olivia ** /usr/ports ** Fri Jul 07 09:48:19 # git pull remote: Enumerating objects: 48764, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (12257/12257), done...

    net-mgmt/telegraf error is not overly instructive

    net-mgmt/telegraf compile using the git version of the ports tree was successful. Thank you.

    KK. Did not know that you could pull ports via git. I will try that.

    net-mgmt/telegraf error is not overly instructive

    Still using portsnap; but I had to wipe my ports tree anyway: rm -rf /usr/ports/*; rm -rf /usr/ports/.[a-z]*; rm -rf /var/db/portsnap/*; portsnap fetch extract So it was as fresh a tree as I could make it before I started.

    Solved bash 5.1.4_1 error: "cc: error: no such file or directory: 'yes'"

    Yah, I can compile it fine on other computers too... [sigh] And I have the same version of shells/bash/Makefile per SirDice, I also removed my /etc/make.conf (lot's of old knobs in there, but nothing that seems relevant) and /var/db/ports/shells_bash/options (which had NLS and DOCS disabled...

    Solved How to boot when bootloader is gone

    That makes sense, thank you. I tried many times to convince folks to upgrade; but it's a production mail server and everyone was too timid (mostly a Linux house). At this stage the machine is being replaced; so it still won't be upgraded. But I'm correct in understanding that if we had used a...

    Solved How to boot when bootloader is gone

    Thanks for that (and we managed to reboot the beast finally), but for the record I'm asking how one would boot directly from the LiveCD's bootloader command prompt. Similar to GRUB, I'm thinking there is a way to invoke a zfs kernel via the LiveCD? (e.g. boot zfs:zroot/ROOT/default/boot/kernel)...

    Solved How to boot when bootloader is gone

    It is the case that we have lost drives and reshuffled spindles and now lost power and upon power-up the boot loader is missing. It appears that the replacement zfs spindle is now mounting as da3 and da0 has become another part of the file system. We are still running 10.2 [sigh] and we have...

    ZFS Very poor zpool performance during resilvering

    Most of the spindles are pretty quiet, but one pegs on and off at ~400%. I'm willing to assume that spindle is the one currently involved with the resilver; but that's just a guess.

    ZFS Very poor zpool performance during resilvering

    Well... The responsible party is concerned about the downtime necessary to complete the upgrades. However, it is on the list of things to do.

    ZFS Very poor zpool performance during resilvering

    Way... more than 100. I'm running a count now; but it will probably be a while before I get a response. Edit: I'm told it's over 40,000 snaps.
