fix the mongodb install issues on 2.7.0

[DirectXMan12]

See also: #320 (comment), but TL;DR:

• pfSense 2.7.0 forked off from FreeBSD 14.0-pre at some time N
• FreeBSD 14.0-pre switched to OpenSSL 3.0 in base at some time N+1
• we pull from FreeBSD:14:x "latest" here
• thus "latest" expects OpenSSL 3.0, but we (pfSense) have a base with OpenSSL 1.x

Thus, mongodb from FreeBSD:14:x errors out with missing libssl.so.30 linking errors.

pfsense/FreeBSD-src@b077aed says that we're gonna get OpenSSL 3.0 eventually in pfSense, but for now, we can pull from FreeBSD:13:x if we see that bad combination of (abi, pfSense version).

Fixes #320

@tong2x as per your request :-)

tried to make it a bit less hacky than it was when i originally ran it :-P

Looks to me there is a bug on line 116 - dollar sign missing in front of FREEBSD_PACKAGE_URL, it should read:
base_url=${2:-$FREEBSD_PACKAGE_URL}
Without that dollar sign, e.g. the URL for png will be generated as:
FREEBSD_PACKAGE_URLAll/png-1.6.40.pkg
With the dollar sign it is generated as
https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest/All/png-1.6.40.pkg
which is a lot better imho

Well, looks like the current version of this script is a bit buggy - it did not install mongodb42 so I copied/pasted some of the commands until I got it installed correctly (from the FreeBSD 13 repositories). Mongo seems to be running now but I'm still getting 404 when opening the web app - when I start unifi.sh I get:
[2.7.0-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.acacialei5.be]/root: Exception in thread "launcher" java.lang.NullPointerException: Web context failed to initialize

FREEBSD_PACKAGE_URL

whoops, thought i fixed it, i'll push something tonight to fix that

a bit buggy

hmm, do you know where it failed? i tried to de-hackify what i did on my machine, but i might've missed something

Other than "FREEBSD_PACKAGE_URL", I only had to change python37 to python38 for it to install. I currently also get the same error as above though.

Sorry for asking what is probably a relatively newb question. How would I install the script in your branch on my pfsense box? Using a curl command or similar?

Same here. When running the script from branch, I am getting to this point before the hang, and nothing works (remove the folder location and try again, double script run to combat timeout, nothing :(

fix for opnsense to use latest unifi 7.5.187
#326
please test on pfsense though pfsense has a different issue with ssl
just need tester maybe we could come up with alitle progress with each fix

[CodeJACKz]

Any advise for what the best way forward is with this? Scrap pfsense and go to opnsense? or wait for 2.7 to have the SSL stuff sorted and allow this to work again??

[CodeJACKz]

Maybe this is the real answer but how long might this take to make it into FreeBSD CURRENT that pfsense uses?

I have verifed @DirectXMan12 idea to install the mongodb44 from FreeBSD:13:amd64 over the installed Unifi from beta, works on Pfsense 2.7.0.

However the script given, does not. It is pulling packagesite.pkg for FreeBSD:14:amd64 and checking for mongodb44 which does not exist there. It must first download https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/latest/packagesite.pkg then extract it and search that packagesite.yaml for the package path.

These are the exact steps I took to do this manually, without the programmatic searching of packagesite.yaml:

1. Install Unifi 8.0.4 from PR beta UniFi Network Application 8.2.92 #332

fetch -o - https://shorturl.at/pqsuG | sh -s

2. Disable unifi service to make changes:

service unifi.sh disable

3. Remove current FreeBSD:14 version of mongodb44:

/usr/sbin/pkg unlock mongodb44
/usr/sbin/pkg remove mongodb44

4. Install FreeBSD:13:amd64 mongodb44:

/usr/sbin/pkg add -f "http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/latest/All/mongodb44-4.4.25.pkg"

5. Start service:

service unifi.sh enable
service unifi.sh start

Wait 30 seconds for the service to start and it should work. Because this is force installing a package from a previous OS version.. YMMV. Also, I have no idea how to script this.

Same here. I could not get it to install after upgrade Pfsense from 2.7.0 to 2.7.1 until I followed these steps.
Now it works.
