re: freebsd +php + apache-mod_ssl + mysql port install Success. Thank you for making this install easy for me. I read through chapter 4 of the FreeBSD handbook, ran CVsup to the ports collection and followed your install procedure. That is exactly what I was looking for! The graphical choices page for the mcrypt library of the php install is a nice touch. Perhaps you know how complicated this is to configure by hand. One note: Perl 5 needs to be installed previous to MYSQL, at least with FreeBSD 4.7. I suspect the new Perl is with FreeBSD 5+ to make this a non-issue. I have just confired that I have a working Apache_ssl-MySQL-PHP server. It has been a long time coming. Thank you. Greg L.
