Hi Kevin, Yes, I have done many web searches. The only thing that came up that was near what I needed was:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2006-July/127059.html However, since I can completely remove php4, then install php5, the method they talk about there seems a bit tedious. Thanks for the reply, I thought deinstall and install should do the trick.... will let you know how I make out. -Grant ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Kinsey To: Grant Peel Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Saturday, October 13, 2007 9:48 PM Subject: Re: php4 to php5 upgrade Grant Peel wrote: > Hi all, > > Does anyone know where there might be some clear documentation the > discribes the complete removal of php4 and its extentions, then how to > build php5 extentions. I can't say for sure that there's any such. Has a web search turned up nothing, then? Surely it's not much harder than: $ cd /usr/ports/lang/php4-extensions && make deinstall clean && make distclean $ cd /usr/ports/lang/php4 && make deinstall clean && make distclean and a little cleaning up in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/etc. > I want to use ports if possible.

The extensions meta-port will pull PHP in as a dependency if you haven't already installed it*, so the answer is not vice-versa, per se. Do lang/php5 first. Kevin Kinsey *Or it will crap out.
