What did you set --prefix to during ./configure? Did you "find / -name *httpd.conf*" The config template that comes in the Apache src is going to need more hand work than the one that comes with the FBSD port. Shoot me an e-mail offline about your Ports problems (just fwd me messages) and I'll offer some assistance outside normal FBSD Port Support channels. The reason the indignation is unfounded. Probably just frustration from the need to support the non-standard method. They should applaud your willingness to explore the details of the process. Keep in mind that they've collectively spend literally thousands of man-hours optimizing that Port for FBSD. The old addage that it's better to compile your server's primary app from source still holds true, but FBSD is an exception because of Ports. Only ISVs and OEMs do that, but even then Ports offers flexibility most of the time that they can start with...embedded developers with extreme needs maybe. ~BAS On Sat, 2007-03-17 at 22:08 -0800, jekillen wrote: > Hello; > I have tried to install Apache 1.3.37 twice > on FreeBSD v6.2 with following commands in /usr/local/apache: > first time: > ./ configure --enable-module=so --enable-module=rewrite > make > make install > second time > ./ configure --enable-module=so --enable-module=rewrite > --enable-shared=max > make > make install > All went through without any errors or complaints > But; > The only httpd.conf file is in /usr/local/apache/configure > and it has no LoadModule or AddModule list nor ClearModulelist > directive, > That whole section is missing. > Any suggestions? > It usually makes /usr/local/etc/httpd/httpd.conf but in this situation > there is no httpd directory in the /usr/local/etc directory. > Thanks in advance > Jeff K > p.s.
