Jails on 9.10

[Neek]

I've seen in the release notes that 9.10 has some weird issues with jails, that have to do with being a hybrid FreeBSD 9 and FreeBSD 10 system. However, I'm not sure what exactly I'm supposed to actually do to "nuke my jails templates".

I created a jail. From within the jail, if I look at /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf, it appears to be setting 'url' as:
url : "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/freebsd:10:x86:64/latest",

I run pkg update and it then fails, similar to what's seen in https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/14211.

But after reading that thread numerous times, I'm still unsure what I'm supposed to do to get the jail to be able to update its package list. I am running 3 other jails, one derived from pluginjail, and 2 from standard. They were all created back when I was on FreeNAS 9.3.

I'm not a noob, but I'm not a FreeBSD jails expert. I'd appreciate any suggestions what I need to do. Thanks.

try this

Code:

vi /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
then edit the file TO

FreeBSD: {
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest",
mirror_type: "srv",
enabled: yes
}

Thanks a lot. I had tried that, but still, after doing that, when I run pkg update, I get:

Code:

root@plex:/ # pkg update

Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
pkg: http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:10:amd64/latest/meta.txz: No address record
repository FreeBSD has no meta file, using default settings
pkg: http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:10:amd64/latest/packagesite.txz: No address record
Unable to update repository FreeBSD
