Hi,
(Please include me in the reply as I am not subscribed to this list.)
I am trying to use Ports to install php5 on top of Apache 2.2. However, when
I do pkg_add, it says that the prereq Apache 1.3 is not installed. I also
tried forcing it (using -f), but even then it did not seem to have installed
Php5 properly.
I tried this:
cd /usr/ports/lang/php5
pkg_add php5
That did not work.
Then I ftp-ed to <ftp://ftp.freebsd.org> ftp.freebsd.org and downloaded the
tbz file from the same
location (/ports/lang/php5) and did pkg_add with that file name as
parameter. Is that the right thing to do?
After I did that, I got the error that I explained above (i.e. Apache 1.3
not installed)
As you might imagine, I am pretty new to FreeBSD.
Thanks,
Omer
