I've never had any problems installing these 3 out of the ports. Dirk is really doing a great job with these ports. I don't know if it's important but i always install them in this order: mysql - apache - mod_php4 because php4 needs some mysql libs. > Why would this be?

(older versions of the php4 didn't include the nice dialog based where you can choose the features) -- Benedikt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
