I did this as per your post Run pkg_delete php5-5.1.2_1 and then reinstall it from the lang/php5 port, but make sure you make config first to add in the Apache module. # /usr/ports/lang/php5 >make install clean ===> php5-5.1.4 is marked as broken: Unknown AUTOCONF version: 259. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php5. # /usr/ports/lang/php5 > What now??? How is a normal port user suppose to know to do make config to set options first? This should just pop up in persons face on make install. Its like someone when out of their way to make this harder to use on purpose. What were they thinking???? -----Original Message----- From: James O'Gorman [mailto:james@netinertia.co.uk] Sent: Friday, May 12, 2006 10:18 AM To: fbsd@a1poweruser.com Subject: Re: FreeBSD Port: phpMyAdmin-2.8.0.3 I suggest you read the error message (underlined below). Check /usr/ports/UPDATING, which tells you that PHP5 no longer installs the Apache module by default. The error is because you are missing part of PHP, not because there is a problem with the phpMyAdmin port. Run pkg_delete php5-5.1.2_1 and then reinstall it from the lang/php5 port, but make sure you make config first to add in the Apache module.
