Hi guys.

I had a problem with one of my servers in staging so I decided to do a clean full install of 8.0 to replace the old 7.0 that was on that server. I had 4 jails running on that server at that time and I backup the whole /usr/jails directory in another HD and then I try to import the jails using ezjail ( that I always used ) and I didn't have any problem with the import process, the jail is up but when I tried to enter to it gives me errors like :

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libcrypt.so.4: not found, required by "ruby18" etc and none of the services are running.

My question is :

Do I need to reinstall portupgrade and reinstall all ports ?

Did I do the proper export and import process ?

The jail where running on 7.0 and the basejail dir was from 7.0, now is from 8.0 and I understand that I have to do some reinstall or upgrade process but I think that I skipped some steps :).


Thanks.
