Jerry,
Yes, I tried MacPorts. I seemed get caught in some kind of dependency hell and could not get things to update correctly.
I agree that it can be somewhat tedious to keep the packages up-to-date, but you'll face that problem (in varying degrees of difficulty, admittedly) no matter what package manager you use. If you feel you can reasonably do so, I would just mv /opt/local to /opt/local-old and start over (declare MacPorts bankruptcy). Now you can execute: sudo port install apache2 php5 php5-postgresql To make it easier for me to manage the web server (and to avoid colliding with the Apple apachectl script), I symlink /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -> /usr/local/bin/apache2ctl. -- Gary Chambers -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
