Definetely wrong, its APACHE_PORT=www/apacheXX I'm guessing you are looking for something similiar to: .ifdef USE_MYSQL .error You have `USE_MYSQL' variable defined either in environment or in make(1) arguments. Please undefine and try again. .endif > Maybe try and execute perl first, and bail out with something meaningful > ("you either have USE_APACHE in /etc/make.conf or your environment or you > are trying to build an apache-related port without perl installed")? It might be more complicated than that since we ship with an executable that merely prints out a message to go install perl.
