The PR starts out that way, but devolves into this: <---snip---> "You are right: root could not write into $PORTSDIR even though it = looked as it should, but NFS root squashing hit even though the directory had group wheel and was group-writeable. Making $PORTSDIR world writable addressed this. So I guess this mainly leaves the question how we can improve the = failure mode here?" <---/snip---> I was trying to reproduce the NFS root squashing to reproduce the = failure mode, then I could implement: <---snip---> "1. Change "Fetching the ports index ... index file directory=20 /sw/test/FreeBSD/ports not writable!" to "Fetching the ports index ... directory /sw/test/FreeBSD/ports not=20 writable; consider setting INDEXDIR." 2. Abort portupgrade at that point, instead of running into problems later on and issuing a Ruby backtrace. <---/snip---> And a little later, teh following is added: <---snip---> 3. portupgrade ignores INDEXDIR. <---/snip---> > The problem described in PR was due to portupgrade creating > database files with wrong permissions, which was fixed in > portupgrade-devel. Your problem seems to be irrelevant to > portupgrade at all, or am I missing something? >=20 The discussion gets into the whole NFS root squash thing giving the = impression of lousy permissions and whatnot., then asks for a change in = how portupgrade fails. > On the side not, please, show the output of mount command > and ls -la /usr/ports on the server, which mounts that directory > via NFS. I suspect there's something wrong here. Not sure if this'll help any longer, but for completeness' sake: [root@server /usr/ports]# ls -la /usr/ports total 60878 drwxr-xr-x 69 500 500 4096 Dec 30 07:22 . drwxr-xr-x 19 root wheel 512 Dec 30 07:35 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 19 Jul 14 1997 .cvsignore -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 1801734 Dec 30 01:37 .portsnap.INDEX -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 56245 Dec 25 18:27 CHANGES -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 1499 Jan 1 2009 COPYRIGHT -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 2215 Dec 28 11:38 GIDs -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 17370624 Dec 30 01:38 INDEX-5 -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 20583212 Dec 30 01:38 INDEX-6 -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 20544533 Dec 30 01:38 INDEX-7 -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 4566 Oct 1 17:14 KNOBS -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 33774 Nov 23 19:18 LEGAL -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 318269 Dec 26 10:26 MOVED -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 6018 Dec 18 14:28 Makefile drwxr-xr-x 2 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 Mk -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 1298 May 22 2006 README drwxr-xr-x 2 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 Templates drwxr-xr-x 4 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 Tools -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 11362 Dec 28 11:38 UIDs -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 312890 Dec 27 14:27 UPDATING drwxr-xr-x 27 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 accessibility drwxr-xr-x 12 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 arabic drwxr-xr-x 191 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 archivers drwxr-xr-x 110 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 astro drwxr-xr-x 845 500 500 28672 Dec 30 01:25 audio drwxr-xr-x 66 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 benchmarks drwxr-xr-x 99 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 biology drwxr-xr-x 86 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:25 cad drwxr-xr-x 143 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:26 chinese drwxr-xr-x 161 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:26 comms drwxr-xr-x 132 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:26 converters drwxr-xr-x 701 500 500 28672 Dec 30 01:26 databases drwxr-xr-x 283 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:26 deskutils drwxr-xr-x 3044 500 500 98304 Dec 30 01:27 devel drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 4096 Dec 30 07:19 distfiles drwxr-xr-x 142 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:27 dns drwxr-xr-x 269 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:27 editors drwxr-xr-x 208 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:27 emulators drwxr-xr-x 89 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:27 finance drwxr-xr-x 31 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:27 french drwxr-xr-x 121 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:27 ftp drwxr-xr-x 1073 500 500 36864 Dec 30 01:28 games drwxr-xr-x 44 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 german drwxr-xr-x 978 500 500 36864 Dec 30 01:28 graphics drwxr-xr-x 10 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 hebrew drwxr-xr-x 12 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 hungarian drwxr-xr-x 145 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 irc drwxr-xr-x 385 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:28 japanese drwxr-xr-x 164 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 java drwxr-xr-x 61 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:28 korean drwxr-xr-x 371 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:28 lang drwxr-xr-x 737 500 500 24576 Dec 30 01:29 mail drwxr-xr-x 527 500 500 20480 Dec 30 01:29 math drwxr-xr-x 15 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:29 mbone drwxr-xr-x 560 500 500 20480 Dec 30 01:29 misc drwxr-xr-x 320 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:29 multimedia drwxr-xr-x 1120 500 500 36864 Dec 30 01:30 net drwxr-xr-x 169 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:29 net-im drwxr-xr-x 284 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:29 net-mgmt drwxr-xr-x 139 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:29 net-p2p drwxr-xr-x 105 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 news drwxr-xr-x 44 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 palm drwxr-xr-x 23 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 polish drwxr-xr-x 66 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 ports-mgmt drwxr-xr-x 19 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 portuguese drwxr-xr-x 350 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:30 print drwxr-xr-x 45 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 russian drwxr-xr-x 135 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:30 science drwxr-xr-x 869 500 500 28672 Dec 30 01:32 security drwxr-xr-x 46 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:32 shells drwxr-xr-x 927 500 500 28672 Dec 30 01:33 sysutils drwxr-xr-x 1249 500 500 45056 Dec 30 01:34 textproc drwxr-xr-x 12 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:34 ukrainian drwxr-xr-x 23 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:34 vietnamese drwxr-xr-x 1884 500 500 69632 Dec 30 01:36 www drwxr-xr-x 499 500 500 20480 Dec 30 01:37 x11 drwxr-xr-x 65 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-clocks drwxr-xr-x 70 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-drivers drwxr-xr-x 46 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-fm drwxr-xr-x 146 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-fonts drwxr-xr-x 12 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-servers drwxr-xr-x 218 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:36 x11-themes drwxr-xr-x 319 500 500 12288 Dec 30 01:36 x11-toolkits drwxr-xr-x 146 500 500 4096 Dec 30 01:36 x11-wm
