Creating a Poudriere Jail fails

[ebike]

Hi,

I am trying to create a poudriere jail to compile some custom packages, I get a fail with:

poudriere jail -c -j freebsd_14-1x64 -v 14.1-RELEASE
[00:00:00] Creating freebsd_14-1x64 fs at /usr/local/poudriere/jails/freebsd_14-1x64... done

It seems to look for the RELEASE in the wrong place ... how do I fix?

I am trying to install a linux version of widevine, as per these instructions Here
The instructions define the locations as : FREEBSD_HOST=https://download.freebsd.org, is this correct now? I don't see a /pub/.. at that location ..

Your URL is https://download/FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/14.1-RELEASE/base.txz

There is a / after 'download', you should have '.' there. It should be https://download.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/14.1-RELEASE/base.txz

I have this "FREEBSD_HOST=https://download.freebsd.org" in my poudriere.conf.

Fix your poudriere.conf (located in /usr/local/etc/poudriere.conf) with the line I provided, then try again.

Weird. The forum software seems to muck up the URL.

https://download.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/14.1-RELEASE/base.txz

Or you both copy/pasted the same error.

Anyway, I'd pick one of the many local (ftp) mirrors:

Appendix A. Obtaining FreeBSD

How to get FreeBSD: CD and DVD sets, FTP sites and how to install and use Git

docs.freebsd.org

For me ftp2.nl.FreeBSD.org is a lot faster than ftp.nl.FreeBSD.org, so you may have to try a few to get the best one for your location.

Thanks, yep I had the correct URL. But changing to ftp fixed it .. thanks

FREEBSD_HOST=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org

There's a local New Zealand mirror: ftp.nz.FreeBSD.org That might be faster for you.
