    MariaDB 10.x not compiling on FreeBSD 12.1

    Compiling MariaDB from ports on another computer was fine (krb5 port installed as well of course).

    MariaDB 10.x not compiling on FreeBSD 12.1

    I can confirm this. I was not able to update to a recent MariaDB version without removing krb5. Sadly krb5 is required by PHP7... so I had to deinstall it, update MariaDB, then install it back.

    MariaDB 10.x not compiling on FreeBSD 12.1

    For MariaDB: 1. touch /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/mysql/cmake.mysql 2. Put this inside: #!/bin/sh cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/mysql \ -DWITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 \ -DWITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 \ -DWITH_ZLIB=system \ -DWITH_EXTRA_CHARSETS=all \...

    Setup.sh and EOL

    What's the error that you experience? I never installed on 12.x, but it was always working fine before. What I did was: 1. Start the setup.sh and install the default installation it offers 2. Modify options.conf and update to whatever I want with custombuild

    Solved Updating Release to Release

    Jumping from one version to another is usually flawless. I never downgraded - just going up. And my experience back in the FreeBSD 9 days was that DA works with unsupported versions as well (I updated to a higher BSD and it continued to work fine).

    ProFTPd 1.3.7a error at the end of update

    Obviously it's related to the proftpd_uploadscan feature. When set to "no" in options.conf, it compiles with no problem (still the unsetenv error appears but it's not a problem). The following command fails: /usr/bin/prxs -c -i -d mod_clamav.c and the error is: libtool --mode=compile gcc...

    Limit CPU Usage

    In FreeBSD it can be done on OS level pretty easy. It is explained in the handbook: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/security-resourcelimits.html

    DA Differences with FreeBSD and Linux

    While it's true that most of the software is released faster on Linux and is later ported to BSD, in the general case we are talking about a delay from few hours to 1-2 days (when the update is not critical). I can't say it's a very big deal. And the FreeBSD community is pretty helpful.

    DA Differences with FreeBSD and Linux

    I use IPFW and there is a thread in the forum on how to integrate it with the Brute Force Monitor in DA. It works flawless.

    DA Differences with FreeBSD and Linux

    It's the same and nothing's missing. And it's pretty stable. From time to time something does not work as expected (usually around updates of additional software components - FreeBSD normally uses packages and ports but DA is forcing their own installations and sometimes they just don't want to...

    ProFTPD 1.3.7a update: failed to start

    Error connecting to MySQL: Access denied for user: 'da_admin@localhost'

    When you start MySQL with root user without password (the from the guide that you follow with the --skip-grant-tables option), run the following SQL statement: REPAIR TABLE mysql.user After that, you may be able to login again. But that is maybe not the only corrupted table. You may want to...

    "An error occurred while sending the mail" when changing password

    OK I FOUNT IT - thanks for sending me to look into this folder. /usr/local/directadmin was in the "blocked_script_paths" list. It looks like the Blockcracking script (or something like that) added it there a long time ago and I didn't even notice (obviously).

    build modsecurity fails on compile FreeBSD 12.1

    It should be addressed with a ticket to DA support. If you want to dig inside for a custom installation, what DA is doing is written in the Build script. You can edit /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build with any text editor and find it. At first shot there are three functions to look at...
