pkg: POST-INSTALL script failed

F

FlorinMarian

Hi, guys!
I try to install with pkg some apps and all of them fails with this message:
Code: 
/bin/sh: indexinfo: not found
pkg: POST-INSTALL script failed
Same error on all FreeBSD versions 32/64bits: 11, 12, 13.
Any idea?
Thank you!
 
That's not the whole error message. Was there something like `user 'blahblah' disappeared during update` ? Then your password databases got out of sync, it happens sometimes. Just run vipw and save and quit (without making any changes). Then run the pkg-install(8) again.

You seem to be missing print/indexinfo. Are your packages up to date? When was the last time you ran pkg upgrade?

Thank you for help.
All images 11.4, 12.2 and 13.0 are downloaded few minutes ago and all of them have same issue.
I've used "vipw" command and got output "vipw: password list updated" but error persist, nothing changed.

Thank you!
 
Try reinstalling pkg install -f indexinfo, something might have gone wrong.

seems the problem is you don't have /usr/local/bin in PATH

It may be because I select "GPT" as partition scheme, then delete all 3 partitions created automatically, I use all the space to / partition with label "freebsd" and /boot it's created automatically?
Thank you!

Ok, so somehow print/indexinfo doesn't install anything in your case. Because in a previous post you mentioned you did pkg install indexinfo.

Maybe the cached version is a little wonky, lets clear the package cache: pkg clean -a
Then run pkg -d install -f indexinfo

The problems persists.
Please keep in mind i've downloaded all 6 images today and there's no cache.
Also please notice that i've installed manuall indexinfo but that didn't changed anything.

Best regards, Florin.

Good, as you can see the package does contain /usr/local/bin/indexinfo. Now why doesn't that end up on your system?

After a reboot it works but I've tried to achieve this output before being generated SSH keys (after fresh install, I had in mind to run some commands and then to shutdown VM to be converted into KVM template).
Thank ou!
