Hello everyone.

I'm trying to setup a web server that will be running PHP, Apache and 
mysql. The system will be running FreeBSD 4.9.
The system was going to be setup to run the following program:

http://mailwatch.sourceforge.net/


I cvsuped my ports and source tree and patched as needed.

After that, I tried installing the following port:

/usr/ports/lang/php4

Granted, i'm not entirely familiar with php and noticed there are quite a 
few variations of what i can install.
When it came down to selecting what I wanted to build PHP with, I left the 
defaults selected, but made sure GD and MySQL were selected.

After it crunched for awhile, I got the following error:

configure: error: libjpeg.(a|so) not found.
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please report the problem to ale at FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/lang/php4/work/php-4.3.6/config.log" including the output of the
failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an
overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls /var/db/pkg`).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4.

I scanned through the config.log but did not see anything that stood out at me.

Any ideas on what I could be missing?

I appreciate it.

Jason
