Hello,
I just wanted to inform you what problems I got installing latest relese
of firebird on my FreeBSD 6.2
I use Firebird as a backend DB for a PHP 5.2.2 webapplication.
1. First I installed the latest firebird-server-2.0.1.tbz production
release from freeBSD ports server with pkg_add. Everything worked fine
excetpt I did not find how to .configure php --with-interbase=PATH
because there were no libs an includes installed (or I did not find them)
2. That is why I downloaded and installed the production
FirebirdCS-2.0.1.12855-0.i686.tar.gz release from firebirdsql.org .
It also worked fine except when I ran my webapplication I found out that
fb_inet_server was hanging after one or two queries.
fb_lock_mgr and on fb_inet_server were in state "semwai" in top.
I tried to change semaphores parameters like :
kern.ipc.semmni="70"
kern.ipc.semmns="200"
kern.ipc.semmsl="61"
but it did not help.
3. So I uninstalled everything again and installed the firebird2-server
that was RELEASECANDIDATE4 that came with the ports collection in 6.2
Now my webapp is running fine but there is another problem :
http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=firebird-net-provider&a=2006-11&t=2650219
-> service_mgr had a wrong name in that relese I think....
(I do not need it currently..)
Now at least my webapp is running smoothly.
Maybe you are interested in this. especially point 2 should be a concern
for the next port build ?
Another nice to have is include and lib in the Path for the build of php.
Thank you
M.Muncke
