Sorry... in each variant before you set cgi_path, add the line
"global cgi_path", that should do it.

It's not good for a port to behave differently depending on what
else the user has installed. A port should behave identically on
everyone's system (modulo such details as OS version and processor
architecture).
Instead, I recommend some variants to let the user select whether
they want to use MacPorts Apache 1, MacPorts Apache 2, or whatever
Apache Apple includes with Mac OS X.
variant apache conflicts apache2 apache_apple description {Use
MacPorts Apache 1} {
depends_run-append port:apache
set cgi_path "${prefix}/www/cgi-bin/"
}
variant apache2 conflicts apache apache_apple description {Use
MacPorts Apache 2} {
depends_run-append port:apache2
set cgi_path "${prefix}/apache2/cgi-bin/"
}
variant apache_apple conflicts apache apache2 description {Use
Apple Apache} {
set cgi_path "/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/"
}
if {![variant_isset apache] && ![variant_isset apache2] && !
[variant_isset apache_apple]} {
default_variants +apache2
}
Actually there are also web servers other than Apache -- lighttpd
for example...
I made the change but I get an error when building:
$ sudo port install mapserver
---> Fetching mapserver
---> Verifying checksum(s) for mapserver
---> Extracting mapserver
---> Applying patches to mapserver
---> Configuring mapserver
---> Building mapserver with target all
---> Staging mapserver into destroot
Error: Target org.macports.destroot returned: can't read
"cgi_path": no such variable
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
I'm not sure how to fix it. I'm attaching my Portfile.<Portfile>
Cheers!
Frank
