It was built a long time ago by somebody else. I was just been assigned the task of upgrading it. This particular server used to be OpenBSD on a SPARC physical machine, which was later migrated to x86_64 VM. Probably the image of its original disk was just mounted under VM, and x86_64 OS version installed over it. In that way, data and configuration files stayed in place.
well...you can do a manual upgrade, and push your problem down the road a bit. But...your system was built incorrectly. You need to rebuild it. Better to do it on your schedule, rather than in a panic when it breaks worse. It actually surprises me it works at all. But what you have is a totally unsupported configuration; it isn't something that is tested for, it isn't something that may work at all in future releases. Nick.
Thank you for your insight. The clean install is definitely the best way to go. Best regards, Ž.
