There is no problem with the mod_frontpage.c code.
There could be a couple of problems with your installation:
1. You had another apache port installed before installing the apache13-fp
port.
a. edit the httpd.conf file and make sure that the frontpage module is
listed in the LoadModule/AddModule sections.
b. Change the AllowOverride setting from None to AuthConfig Limit
Indexes Options for the default web. Then run
/usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/fp_install.sh.
2. Your trying to start the server with apachectl instead of
etc/rc.d/apache.sh. The httpd-error.log will have a message saying that
this key file wasn't found and that the module was disabled.
The frontpage extentions needs a security key to be generated, the
apache.sh script is used to regenerate this key each time the server is
started.
What problems are you having with the port?
