Hey Sorry if I post in the wrong forum category. I updated (freebsd-update) Freebsd from 11.2 to 11.3 and then to 11.4-RELEASE-p4. System (and all services) works OK ;) I want update very old ports by postmaster. I have strange error when trying update perl 5.28 to 5.32. added in...

Today, on FreeBSd-12.1p10, I ran a script that has been working on FreeBSD for years and got this result: env: perl: No such file or directory. Which is, to put it mildly, bizarre. So I checked for perl: which perl | echo $? ==> 1. So, no perl installed. So I checked that: pkg info -x...

Hi, first of all I want to thanks for this community, this forum have rich content. Is possible to send a command from the main host to jail host? Like this: ezjail-admin console WEBSERVER | nginx -s reload I want to restart a service and check status, so I think I need to do this via...

I would like to be able to run certain Perl scripts on my system as root, even though the "user" calling them is not running as root. For each script I can write a C wrapper, setting setuid root for that wrapper; the wrapper would change the UID to 0 and then call the Perl script, which itself...

All versions of Perl5 have been vulnerable since Thursday, but then the prevention from installing it was ignored in the portstree and packages. It is required for x-11/xorg, (any version of) LLVM and most other packages. How much of a vulnerability is it? perl 5-5.20.3_13 is vulnerable: perl...

I can finally execute a "Hello world" Perl script from a command line (have encountered numerous problems with upgrade to perl5-5.24.0), but when called from a Firefox browser session, the following errors are reported: [Thu Jun 02 04:47:00.927168 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 73280] [client...
