<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
A new version of PHP (5.3.9) was available in FreeBSD today. Since it contained a lot of security fixes and enhancements, I decided to give it a try. After testing the new PHP in couple test servers, I think it is ready to upgrade the PHP on the production server. Oh well, I didn’t expect that I needed to spend my whole lunch break to trouble-shoot this problem. So here is what I did:<\/p>\n
\r\n# cd \/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5\r\n# make install\r\n===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found\r\n===> License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSE\r\n===> Found saved configuration for php5-5.3.9\r\n===> Extracting for php5-5.3.9\r\n=> SHA256 Checksum mismatch for php-5.3.9.tar.bz2.\r\n=> SHA256 Checksum OK for suhosin-patch-5.3.4-0.9.10.patch.gz.\r\n===> Refetch for 1 more times files: php-5.3.9.tar.bz2\r\n===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found\r\n===> License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSE\r\n===> Found saved configuration for php5-5.3.9\r\n=> php-5.3.9.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in \/usr\/ports\/distfiles\/.\r\n=> Attempting to fetch from http:\/\/dk.php.net\/distributions\/.\r\nfetch: http:\/\/dk.php.net\/distributions\/php-5.3.9.tar.bz2: Requested Range Not Satisfiable\r\n=> Attempting to fetch from http:\/\/de.php.net\/distributions\/.\r\nfetch: http:\/\/de.php.net\/distributions\/php-5.3.9.tar.bz2: Requested Range Not Satisfiable\r\n=> Attempting to fetch from http:\/\/es.php.net\/distributions\/.\r\nfetch: http:\/\/es.php.net\/distributions\/php-5.3.9.tar.bz2: Requested Range Not Satisfiable\r\n=> Attempting to fetch from http:\/\/fi.php.net\/distributions\/.\r\nfetch: http:\/\/fi.php.net\/distributions\/php-5.3.9.tar.bz2: Requested Range Not Satisfiable\r\n=> Attempting to fetch from http:\/\/fr.php.net\/distributions\/.\r\n===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found\r\n===> License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSE\r\n===> Found saved configuration for php5-5.3.9\r\n=> SHA256 Checksum mismatch for php-5.3.9.tar.bz2.\r\n=> SHA256 Checksum OK for suhosin-patch-5.3.9-0.9.10.patch.gz\r\n===> Giving up on fetching files: php-5.3.9.tar.bz2\r\nMake sure the Makefile and distinfo file (\/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5\/distinfo)\r\nare up to date. If you are absolutely sure you want to override this\r\ncheck, type \"make NO_CHECKSUM=yes [other args]\".\r\n*** Error code 1\r\n\r\nStop in \/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5.\r\n*** Error code 1\r\n\r\nStop in \/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5.\r\n*** Error code 1\r\n\r\nStop in \/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5.\r\n<\/pre>\nInitially, I thought it was a checksum error. So I decided to skip the checksum, i.e.,<\/p>\n
\r\n#make install NO_CHECKSUM=yes\r\n<\/pre>\nUnfortunately, it gave the same error. I think the problem might come from corrupted port files or port database. Instead of finding the source of the problem, I decided to rebuild the whole thing.<\/p>\n
First, let’s remove the port database:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\r\n#sudo rm -Rf \/var\/db\/portsnap\/*\r\n<\/pre>\nNext, we need to re-download all port files:<\/p>\n
\r\n#sudo portsnap fetch extract\r\n<\/pre>\nSome new ports may be released during the extraction, let’s make sure that the port tree is up to date:<\/p>\n
\r\n#sudo portsnap fetch update\r\n<\/pre>\nNow, we need to manually download the php source. Make sure that the file is stored in \/usr\/ports\/distfiles\/<\/p>\n
\r\n#cd \/usr\/ports\/distfiles\/\r\n#sudo wget http:\/\/fi.php.net\/distributions\/php-5.3.9.tar.bz2\r\n<\/pre>\nNow, try to test whether the system can build php again. Notice that this will not install the PHP in your system.<\/p>\n
\r\ncd \/usr\/ports\/lang\/php5\r\nsudo make\r\n<\/pre>\nIf it gives no error, which means the PHP is ready to go. Now let’s clean up our work and make sure everything is ready.<\/p>\n
\r\nsudo make clean\r\n<\/pre>\nNotice that there is no way to upgrade the PHP from Make without uninstall it. Since it is a production server, I want to keep the website running. So I decide to let Portmaster to do all dirty works for me.<\/p>\n
\r\nsudo portmaster -Da\r\n<\/pre>\nDepending on your CPU, it may take 5 minutes to an hour to finish the update. Normally, the standard php package will work fine after the update. However, if it is not a standard package, such as PECL, you will need to do one more step. For example, here is the error messages right after I upgraded PHP:<\/p>\n
