Drew, I ran into this same issue. It has been awhile since then, so I don't remember the details. All I remember is that the webs did not install right, and that I tried everything under the sun to get this to work. Finally what I did was format my hard drive, install a clean install of freebsd, and use the regular apache installation from apache.org. After a few tweaks, this was relatively simple to setup. Personally, I believe that there are alot of small differences between the freebsd port and the regular install of apache. For one I know the default conf files are different... anyway, it works great for me now. By the way, I have had a bad time with the ports in the sense that if any other application needs to use them, the second application wont link right or will have trouble using it. For example frontpage, or mysql. I decided that I won't use the ports any longer, not because they are bad, they work great as long as you don't try and link another application to them, especially one that is not a port as well, but just because it is too much of a hassle to try and re-configure other applications to work with them... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Drew Tomlinson" <drewt@writeme.com> To: "'Mikel'" <mikel@ocsinternet.com>; "Doug Young" <dougy@gargoyle.apana.org.au> Cc: "Drew Tomlinson" <drewt@writeme.com>; "FreeBSD Questions (E-mail)" <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2001 11:52 AM Subject: RE: Adding FP Extensions to Apache 1.3.12 > Thanks for your responses! > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Mikel [mailto:mikel@ocsinternet.com] > > Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2001 5:58 AM > > To: Doug Young > > Cc: Drew Tomlinson; FreeBSD Questions (E-mail) > > Subject: Re: Adding FP Extensions to Apache 1.3.12 > > > > > > Why not just use the apache13+fp port in /usr/ports/www ? > > I could but am trying to learn how to do things by hand.
