Hi all,

I have managed to install mSQL (as far as I can tell - the make,
make test, make install process worked fine), and Apache (again,
as far as I can tell). But when I come to run them, FreeBSD
gives me an 'Command not found' error. I am logged in as root and a
ls -F shows the file httpd to be executable but when I type httpd
I get 'httpd: Command not found.'. The same happens for msql, 
msqladmin, msqldump, etc.

I am new to unix but this has me at a dead end; the files are
executable, so why don't they execute?

Any help appreciated.

Zach.
