I've done it before, maybe 4 years ago, for a past employer, so I can't say what FreeNAS version and configuration I had at the time, but I know at least it should be possible, but I can't for the life of me manage it today.
My current FreeNAS server at home, (with which I'm having the issues), is on version 11.1-U6. When I create a jail using the web interface, it used to say something about "11.0" in the progress box, but upon trying to get the actual message by creating a new jail, it doesn't appear to appear any more.
Within the jail, running `pkg install mysql57-server produces the following:
And stuff has already started to go wrong.
And
And
Giving that up as a bad cause, let's delete the jail and start over, following the instructions here instead. The instructions are fairly bare, and I'm presented with several prompts which I don't know the answers to. The first asks me which storage engines to statically compile into the server, of which none are selected, and I selected "INNOBASE" manually, and something to do with "features knobs", which I left alone.
It is at this point I was asked about storage engines and knobs.
At this point, I'm lost. I have no idea what file I'm patching. I'm also fairly disappointed that my system has fetched code to (presumably) compile and execute over PLAIN HTTP. (What the fuck).
Anyway, simply pressing Enter lets me skip patching, which then immediately falls over and dies.
So, let's delete the jail and try again - maybe Maria will be kinder to me. (Assuming you've read the thread title, the suspense is delightfully artificial for you).
Looking good so far.
And suddenly it looks much less promising. Let's check the logs it's talking about. They're in a weird place but whatever.
Ok cool, literally nothing but gibberish. What if we try running the server manually like the error message suggested?
Wonderful, the exact same bad cause as mysql itself had. Googling the error brings me to here, in which they discuss being on the wrong version of FreeBSD within the jail, and using iocage instead for jails, which I don't remember doing when I last set up MySQL.
Let's follow this guide to using ports for mariadb instead, starting with destroying and remaking a new clean jail.
At this point I'm getting pretty annoyed and exasperated. It seems like nobody but me is having these issues, and I don't feel like I'm doing anything strange.
Help please. :(

Code:
# portsnap fetch update && portupgrade -a Some complaint about needing to run "extract" before "update". No idea what it actually was because the next line completely trashed my buffer. # portsnap extract Literally thousands of lines of "/usr/ports/..." ... /usr/ports/x11/yalias/ /usr/ports/x11/yeahconsole/ /usr/ports/x11/yelp/ /usr/ports/x11/zenity/ Building new INDEX files... done. # portsnap update Ports tree is already up to date. # portupgrade -a sh: portupgrade: not found # cd /usr/ports/databases/mariadb103-server # make install clean Some complaint about my system being out of date and unsupported. I needed to define an environment variable to continue. Again, I can't copy paste it because my buffer was trashed later. # ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEMS=yes make install clean Several configuration screens which I left with default options enabled, followed by thousands of lines of C compilation output, then: ====> Compressing man pages (compress-man) ===> Installing for gettext-tools-0.19.8.1 ===> Checking if gettext-tools already installed ===> Registering installation for gettext-tools-0.19.8.1 as automatic [mysql5] Installing gettext-tools-0.19.8.1... ===> p5-Locale-gettext-1.07 depends on executable: msgfmt - found ===> Returning to build of p5-Locale-gettext-1.07 ===> p5-Locale-gettext-1.07 depends on package: perl5>=5.24<5.25 - found ===> p5-Locale-gettext-1.07 depends on shared library: libintl.so - found (/usr/local/lib/libintl.so) ===> Configuring for p5-Locale-gettext-1.07 env: /usr/local/bin/perl5.24.4: No such file or directory *** Error code 127 Stop. make[10]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/p5-Locale-gettext *** Error code 1 Stop. make[9]: stopped in /usr/ports/misc/help2man *** Error code 1 Stop. make[8]: stopped in /usr/ports/misc/help2man *** Error code 1 Stop. make[7]: stopped in /usr/ports/print/texinfo *** Error code 1 Stop. make[6]: stopped in /usr/ports/print/texinfo *** Error code 1 Stop. make[5]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/m4 *** Error code 1 Stop. make[4]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/m4 *** Error code 1 Stop. make[3]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/bison *** Error code 1 Stop. make[2]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/bison *** Error code 1 Stop. make[1]: stopped in /usr/ports/databases/mariadb103-server *** Error code 1 Stop. make: stopped in /usr/ports/databases/mariadb103-server #
At this point I'm getting pretty annoyed and exasperated. It seems like nobody but me is having these issues, and I don't feel like I'm doing anything strange.
Help please. :(
