Here is a resource

http://www.freebsdonline.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=46

with all needed packages to run under your webserver CMS software like 
Mambo or Joomla.

If you use other version than 5.4, the packages versions might differ, 
but you can find the correct version by ftping to freebsd.org
