Can't make installworld

C

I've recently install 7.1 with Apache, Mysql and Joomla. I'd like to setup jail for another site. I get an error when I run:


make installworld DESTDIR=/var/jail/jail1

"make. Don't know how to make installworld. Stop"

I get the same error if I try to run "make buildworld", but didn't think I needed this since it's a new install.

I updated the ports collection after install. What else do I need?

You'll need a buildworld to be able to installworld. A new installation won't have a build world in /usr/obj. And as ericturgeon said, you need to cd /usr/src before you do a make.
 
Ah, guess I should have checked that first. That directory is empty. What files need to be in that directory?
 
I used csup when I first installed the system to update the ports collection. If I've used csup is there another build command that I need to use? Is there a different process of installing the tree in /usr/src with csup then with cvsup? All I want to do is setup a jail (completely seperate system from the host with MySQL, Apache and Joomla).
 
Have a look in /usr/share/examples/cvsup (yes, you can feed those to csup as well). For ports, portsnap(8) is the preferred method.

Thanks. I located the install CD and am running install.sh from the /src directory.

That will give you the sources for that particular release. If you want the security patches or update to -stable you'll still need to use csup. Or if you only require the security patches you can try freebsd-update(8). Do note that freebsd-update will do a binary update, it will not update your /usr/src tree.
