I find it kind of weird that people click right through
`make config' without reading it.


Actually, the apache module was the default until recently.  I
normally set any non-defaut options in pkgtools.conf and keep things
upgraded with portinstall/upgrade.  The change caught me as well.
(BATCH=YES)

Granted the fix was in 20060506 UPDATING, which should be the first
place to go if something goes amiss during an upgrade.  However, there
have been a number of changes to the php family of ports that impacted
people who already had the port installed.  I only wish that when
these types of changes are made to a popular port that the maintainer
would explain the reason for the pain -- due to the quality of the
work done by the port maintainers (excellent, in my opinion) I assume
it was for a good reason -- I just wish I was smart enough to figure
out why or that they would note it, so I could read it and be smarter
for it.

Actually, I was installing SugarCRM, and php is one of
it's dependencies and I wasn't presented with a config
screen.

I find it kind of weird that people click right through
`make config' without reading it.

It probably makes the dynamic dependency on the installed apache
version easier, don't know. php-fcgi works ;)

Perhaps to reduce build dependencies? Not everyone has Apache
installed and php-[f]cgi is also useful quite useful with lighttpd.

That is something that has been covered ad-nauseam in this and other
FreeBSD mailing lists over the last several months.

cd /usr/ports/lang/php5
make config

make
make deinstall
make install

take a look at the make config in lang/php5 before you begin, and you will see 
how to get the apache module.

php5 issue

2006-11-06 Thread Michael S
Good day all.

I am trying to install PHP5. For some reason it would
install the php interpreter, but not the Apache
module, and as a result Apache complains when I
restart it, about not being able to load libphp5.so. I
tried to make install (no clean) and find the module
in the work directory of the port, but no luck so far.
Any ideas?

Michael
