freebsd-update

Hi all! how are you? :) I have a Jail host which contains about 50 Jails. During day-to-day operations, I need to install packages, a lot of these packages are the same (nginx, vim-console, etc), it would be really good if I can make the Jail host a pkg cache server, where the Jails can use the...

Today, I got a warning that 12.0-RELEASE-p8 is reaching its end-of-life; however I am unable to patch to 12.0-RELEASE-p10 despite not receiving any error warnings. I only have one virtual CPU for my VPS that I rent, and I would rather not build from sources. I tried scouring the forums, but I...

Hello, I was updating jails with mergemaster -iFU after 11.2p8 update and run it on main host by inadvertance. I realized this when mergemaster output looked suspicious : *** The following files exist in /etc/rc.d but not in /var/tmp/temproot/etc/rc.d/: blacklistd iovctl ipfw_netflow ypldap...

Hi gang! Editorial FreeBSD is my all time favorite Unix(-like) operating system. It is both a means as well as a goal for me at times, meaning that it's both simply a tool to get things done (like writing this article right now) but it's also often a goal in itself; trying to make things...

After installing FreeBSD [11.2] for the first time, it seems to work properly except for updating: root@firsttry:~ # freebsd-update fetch Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors. . . none found. Fetching public key from update.FreeBSD.org. . . failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. uname...

I recently updated from 10.4-RELEASE to 11.2-RELEASE. The upgrade was not clean, as the system ran out of space a couple of times and things got seriously out of whack. There was a rollback that put the system in a weird state. Eventually, I thought I'd gotten it all sorted out. Once it looked...

I'm trying to determine how to see if a given MFC-ed change is present in a freebsd-update patch version, prior to installing it. This could be, for example, how to checkout the "tagged" source associated with the patch (to diff and/or examine the logs), or how to examine the patch contents...

Is it possible to resume a pending update (after rebooting with new kernel) if freebsd-update install complains about missing files? That is, to re-download those files and continue with the second stage of update. My machine almost went out of disk space after the first stage: before rebooting...

Hey guys I wanted to update my system one last time before upgrading to 11.2-RELEASE. Apparently my machine is looking for files that aren't even available: admin@server ~ sudo freebsd-update -v debug fetch install src component not installed, skipped Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors...

I read a couple of people updated just fine so I updated one of our servers without issue but, when I updated my workstation, it gets as far as bringing up the eight CPUs on my system, then blurts out some hex code too quickly for me to read, and reboots. I am unable to get into single user mode...

I'm having an issue with freebsd-update stalling when checking for updates. The stall happens at different stages each time I run it. My server is only used for backup purposes, so it has 0.0% load on it at all times. Any ideas where to start troubleshooting this? When it stalls, the cursor...
