FreeBSD 9.0 installation
 

Hi,

I'm running:

FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE #0: Mon Feb 27 00:45:07 UTC 2012 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64

I downloaded the FreeBSD 6.2 version 64bit and installed it. After installing /usr/ports/misc/compat6x/

Everything installed and the web server is running but when I try to access the admin system I get a timeout and then an error:

503 Service Unavailable

The server is temporarily busy, try again later!

Has anyone got any ideas on how to solve this issue? Why are the FreeBSD binaries so old?

Is Litespeed still supported on FreeBSD and actively improved?

Jonathan

Yes, FreeBSD is actively supported.

Seems admin_php failed to run on your server.

1. Manually run admin_php (i.e. '/usr/local/lsws/admin/fcgi-bin/admin_php -v') see if any errors.
2. ls -la /tmp/lshttpd.
3. Check admin error log (i.e. /usr/local/lsws/admin/logs/error.log) for any errors.

I can't see any log messages giving any indication of why the sockets are not working

Jonathan

you may switch to 4.1.11 for now. will let you know once 4.1.12 is fixed.

where do I obtain 4.1.11?

Jonathan

get the 4.1.12 download link from the download page first, then change 4.1.12 to 4.1.11 to get the 4.1.11 link.

Thanks, I've now got this running and after a couple of attempts got php compiled and the wordpress site running. I'm on a trial here and testing out and initial impressions are that it runs very fast out of the box.
Is there a guide on performance settings? so I can ensure I'm getting the most out of the software. Also are there any plans to release a version which does not need the compat libraries and works out of the box on fbsd9?

out of box settings should be good for most situation. for additional tips, visit our wiki

btw, there is no plan for freebsd9 only version.

4.1.12 is ready. pls do force reinstall.
