FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Tue Jan 10 23:41:20 EET 2006


>Description:


On a fresh install, when trying to finish the setup, in httpd-errors.log:
/dev/mem: Permission denied
kvm_open: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/mach/auto/Proc/ProcessTable/ProcessTable.so: Undefined symbol "ppt_croak"
Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/cvsmonitor/cvsmonitor.pl



>How-To-Repeat:


Install the port, do the initial setup and use it.


>Fix:


Workaround (unsafe):

For 5.x: Add the user cvsmonitor runs as to kmem group, remove the devel/p5-Proc-ProcessTable/files/patch-processtable.xs  patch, rebuild and reinstall it,

For 6.0 you will need to do exactly the same, and apply this patch to devel/p5-Proc-ProcessTable/Makefile (PT knows about FreeBSD 5, but not 6 or 7):
