Sorry,
I am sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find an answer on
google. I currently had a php5 port that had the mysql4 variant
installed.
I want to add support for mysql5 instead so i tried upgrading with
little
luck. I installed mysql5 fine and then deactivated mysql4 with no
problem.
When I try to then install a new version of php5 using port install
php5
+apache2 +mysql5 +pear I end up getting errors after waiting a very
long
time for things to compile. The typical error is:
Error: Activating pcre 7.1_1 failed: Image error: Another version
of this
port (pcre @4.5_0) is already active.
or
Error: Deactivating expat 1.95.7_0 failed: Image error: expat
@1.95.7_0 not
installed as an image.
but in place of expat when i tried to install the php5 directly it
gave an
error about pcre. I then tried to upgrade all my updated ports
using port
upgrade outdated and some were successful while others got similar
errors as
described above? What is causing this problem and how do I go
about fixing
it because of of right now my LAMP install is busted and I can't get
anything accomplished until i resolve the php5 issue. Any
information would
be greatly appreciated and if I missed providing any important
information
please ask and I will gladly supply it.
Thanks,
Evan
Hi,
I am sorry, if I am wrong, but I understand that you tried to install
php5 +mysql5 &c while having php5 +mysql4 installed? If you change
variants, you ought to uninstall first, sorry for that. It is also
hard to understand, where does pcre @4.5_0 come from.
You could:
- look at what you have installed with 'port installed' (or e.g. port
installed name:php)
- port clean --all expat (, and pcre and php5)
- uninstall expat, pcre, and php5 (use -f if necessary)
- install them again
What version of port do you have? What operating system are you
working on? What Xcode version do you have?
