The Gods seem to be conspiring against me. I'm flummoxed as to why I can't get php running in interactive mode (php -a). Some relevant info:
php5-5.3.8 PHP Scripting Language php5-extensions-1.5 A "meta-port" to install PHP extensions php5-readline-5.3.8 The readline shared extension for php python27-2.7.2_2 An interpreted object-oriented programming language I tried doing an endrun around the problem by installing python in conjunction with the /devel/phpsh port. That hasn't quite worked out either. Testing the installation of phpsh on a local build server: $ phpsh Starting php Install pcntl to enable forking on every command. type 'h' or 'help' to see instructions & features php> echo "Hello world\n"; Hello world php> d array_merge Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/phpsh", line 127, in <module> t_c_ret = s.try_command(line) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/phpsh/__init__.py", line 909, in try_command import manual File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/phpsh/manual.py", line 4, in <module> from sqlite3 import dbapi2 as sqlite File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/sqlite3/__init__.py", line 24, in <module> from dbapi2 import * File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/sqlite3/dbapi2.py", line 27, in <module> from _sqlite3 import * ImportError: No module named _sqlite3 [ At this point phpsh exits ] Building a phpsh package fails: ===> Building package for phpsh-20110513 tar: etc/phpsh/config.sample: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: etc/phpsh/php_manual.db: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: etc/phpsh/rc.php: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256 *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/phpsh. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/phpsh. Running 'pkg_info -L' reveals the missing files being installed into /usr/local/etc/phpsh, but no such directory (or files) exists. And just for fun, the results after installing phpsh on Mac OS X (where php interactive mode doesn't work either): Warning: require_once(/opt/local/etc/phpsh/rc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/phpsh/phpsh.php on line 49 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/opt/local/etc/phpsh/rc.php' (include_path='.:') in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/phpsh/phpsh.php on line 49 Could someone shed some light as to why php interactive mode doesn't work with FreeBSD? Or alternatively, how to fix my phpsh installation and get a package made?
