pfsense 2.7 working?

[somebody-somewhere-over-the-rainbow]

I tried to upgrade to 2.7 yesterday but ran into issues. Running the installer script did not help either.

anybody else experienced this or had success installing unifi?

[tong2x]

any details you can share?
what errors did you see or record?
clean install?
which script did you run?

[salinbraga]

When I went to install it, it gave an error, the installation is clean.
follows the error:

Message from freetype2-2.12.1_2:

The 2.7.x series now uses the new subpixel hinting mode (V40 port's option) as
the default, emulating a modern version of ClearType. This change inevitably
leads to different rendering results, and you might change port's options to
adapt it to your taste (or use the new "FREETYPE_PROPERTIES" environment
variable).

The environment variable "FREETYPE_PROPERTIES" can be used to control the
driver properties. Example:

FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=truetype:interpreter-version=35
cff:no-stem-darkening=1
autofitter:warping=1

This allows to select, say, the subpixel hinting mode at runtime for a given
application.

If LONG_PCF_NAMES port's option was enabled, the PCF family names may include
the foundry and information whether they contain wide characters. For example,
"Sony Fixed" or "Misc Fixed Wide", instead of "Fixed". This can be disabled at
run time with using pcf:no-long-family-names property, if needed. Example:

FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=pcf:no-long-family-names=1

How to recreate fontconfig cache with using such environment variable,
if needed:

env FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=pcf:no-long-family-names=1 fc-cache -fsv

The controllable properties are listed in the section "Controlling FreeType
Modules" in the reference's table of contents
(/usr/local/share/doc/freetype2/reference/index.html, if documentation was insta lled).

try
Install command: fetch -o - https://tinyurl.com/edfwfc5y | sh -s
but since this is FreeBsd14, this may be a major change in the packages.
just like from freebsd12 to freebsd13

btw the script is pointing to freebsd13 repository also

[salinbraga]

It wasn't either, it gave another error, I believe there was a big change with version 2.7.0
Here's the error:

it would seem the major part mongodb 4 is missing or update in freebsd14
lets wait for now for the other team to check the script and updated package version/name

possible for you to run
$ sudo pkg search mongodb

[dvdp]

So far, I only found mongo70 for freebsd14
I managed to get it installed by adding
AddPkg snowballstemmer
AddPkg yaml-cpp
AddPkg mongodb70
But I can't get it to run:
ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libcrypto.so.30" not found, required by "mongod"
I tried to fix that by AddPkg openssl30 but no luck ... and I doubt that the UniFi stuff will work with that mongodb 7.0

[DirectXMan12]

ok so, based on some digging, it looks like FreeBSD 4.0 switched to OpenSSL 3.0, but merged that commit after pfsense 2.7. Thus, we're hitting the issue of "latest packages built for FreeBSD:xyx:14 base expect OpenSSL 3.0, but we (pfsense) haven't quite caught up to that base yet" (at least, with the libssl.so.30 error, which is what I'm seeing as of today)

Good news is that based on pfsense/FreeBSD-src@b077aed, we're gonna be getting OpenSSL eventually and all will be back to normal and good (in theory).

Other good news is that it looks like FreeBSD:xyz:13's build of mongodb44 works just fine on pfsense 2.7. I'm gonna test that, but might be a workaround if you don't wanna switch to pfsense development. I'll update this with what I find

[DirectXMan12]

manually switching to FreeBSD 13's mongodb44 worked fine. my script is hacky rn, but if you want i'm willing to PR in something more robust as an option. not sure what they best way to detect this is if we want to though -- maybe look at pfsense version?

[tong2x]

yes please lets see something just a a workaround for the moment

[dvdp]

Looks like this might get fixed in the near future:
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/releases/23-09.html
which says:
...
OpenSSL in the base system has been upgraded from 1.1.1t to 3.0.12.
...
Question remains: when will it get ported to pfSense CE ...
