Recreate FreeBSD ports build option

Published in Unix - on Apr 30, 2007 - Comment Off

As big fan of FreeBSD ports, I like to play around with ports option, like when installing php4 I was prompted with a lot of build options :

kongja# whereis php4
php4: /usr/ports/lang/php4
kongja# cd /usr/ports/lang/php4

then this ncurse option will popup

I forgot to include “Build Apache Module”

delete “php4” and go to php4 directory

kongja# rm -rf php4

kongja# cd /usr/ports/lang/php4

kongja# make clean

kongja# make

since php4 folder isn’t exist on /var/db/ports you’ll get “new” popup ,  it’s time to correct my fault 🙂

deselect CGI and select Apache 🙂

Followed with make  or make install command.
