Installing PHP4 from ports fail

2003-08-02 Thread Gregory Norman
Hello all,

I am trying to install mysql323, apache13 and php4 on 4.4 Release. So 
far I have  successfully installed mysql and apache, with php it is a 
different story.

I have two issues. I have a question about apache, and I would like some 
help getting php installed on my machine.

I installed apache13-server. Will this installation allow me to use ssl?

When I try to install php the installation fail repeatedly at this point.

-Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib ../lib/libbison.a
Making all in doc
makeinfo --no-split   -I .  `test -f 'bison.texinfo' || echo 
'./'`bison.texinfo -o bison.info
bison.texinfo:37: Unknown command `copying'.
bison.texinfo:58: Unmatched [EMAIL PROTECTED]'.
bison.texinfo:93: Unknown command `insertcopying'.
makeinfo: Removing output file `bison.info' due to errors; use --force 
to preserve.
*** Error code 2

*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison/work/bison-1.75.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison.

After the installation failed I did the following:
 make clean  /usr/ports/lang/php4
cd /usr/ports/devel/bison
make clean
make
The bison installation fails repeatedly at the same place and with the 
same error messages as the php installation.

If someone could help me, offer any suggestions or pointers I would 
appreciate it.

Not AFAIK.  You probably need apache+mod_ssl or
apache-ssl (? - the English one ... Greg Laurie, IIRC)...

I've basically given up on building anything that's not
just about the latest source.  Probably a good idea
from a security standpoint.

The issues focus around compatibility in code.  If
you're running 4.4-release, you've got a codebase
that's almost two years old.  If you've updated /usr/ports,
you have a much newer version of PHP.  IIRC,
bison is part of /usr/src/gnu, so it's probably outdated
as well, unless you've installed a newer version yourself.

Sorry I'm of little help.  My solution (I rebuilt mod_php4
yesterday) is to run -STABLE, and cvsup /usr/ports
before compiling anything ...
