I would like to be able to use both mysql and postgres (for transactional support). I know that I have to install the databases first. During the Apache+PHP install I will be asked to choose a database (default mysql) -- can I choose more than one? Also, a related question: how do upgrades work? Postgresql 7.0 is almost ready. If I install 6.5.3 first, will I need to reinstall Apache+PHP when I want to upgrade to 7.0? Does anyone have any clue when PHP 4 will be released? I know that they have had a release candidate out for a few weeks. Feel free to add whatever pointers/info that would help make these install work right (I am a newbie). I have searched the mailing lists and it seems the biggest problem is when people try to install themselves without using ports (I'm not sure why anyone would do that) or install Apache+PHP *before* the database(s).
