Hello,

I recently made the jump to -stable from 6.0 on a box that I'm looking to bring into production as soon as 6.1 hits. Everything seems fine so far but for one issue that I am guessing is related to the rc changes in -stable.

This host has two jails, both started via the rc.conf method, ie:

# jail stuff - general
jail_enable="YES"
jail_list="somejail somejail2"
jail_socket_unixiproute_only="YES"
jail_sysvipc_allow="NO"
# jail stuff - per jail settings
# jail 1 - shell
jail_jail1_rootdir="/jails/somejail"
jail_jail1_hostname="somejail.bway.net"
jail_jail1_ip="216.220.x.x"
jail_jail1_exec_start="/bin/sh /etc/rc"
jail_jail1_exec_stop="/bin/sh /etc/rc.shutdown"
jail_jail1_devfs_enable="YES"
jail_jail1_fdescfs_enable="NO"
jail_jail1_procfs_enable="NO"
jail_jail1_mount_enable="NO"
jail_jail1_devfs_ruleset="devfsrules_jail"

Since the upgrade, I've noticed that none of the ports-installed services in each jail start up. For example, both jails have apache2 and mysql40-server installed. Everything in /usr/local/etc/rc.d within each jail looks correct, and the startup flags are set in each jail's rc.conf. They start fine if I login to the jail and run the scripts, but do not start at boot.

See the thread "FreeBSD Port: sysutils/smartmontools (more RCng problems)" in -ports, particularly the posts by Doug Barton. It sounds like the same problem. I used his fix to get a couple of daemons to start at boot which had stopped doing so after u/g to 6.0.

Ok, I installed this port and tested it myself, and the problem is the hard coded value of smartd_enable at the top of the script. For reasons I don't quite understand yet, hard coding the value in the script affects the boot-time operation of the script differently than on the command line.

The good news is that the fix is simple:
