However, it complains if you try to install it twice: ------- ===> Installing for mysql-3.20.22 ===> mysql-3.20.22 depends on executable: perl5.004 - found You appear to already have a mysql database directory in /var/db/mysql. In order to preserve your existing data, you should: - dump all your databases - kill mysql if it is running - delete the /var/db/mysql directory - run 'make install' - start up mysql - re-create all of your database - re-load your data If you understand the consequences of this upgrade, please re-build this port with the environment variable OVERWRITE_DB defined. *** Error code 1 Stop. ------- I'd add OVERWRITE_DB to MAKE_ENV but I don't understand the consequences. James, what should I do? Satoshi
