I'm new to this list but was hoping someone could help me. I
recently installed MacPorts 1.4 RC2 and compiled from source. Once
installed, I did a port file update, etc before installing apache2
+ php5 + mysql5. Everything went pretty smoothly (except for some
app named conftest that crashed - see crash report below - I'm not
sure it matters.)
I get that too, when compiling gettext on Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro. I
wish it wouldn't do that. It has nothing to do with MacPorts; it also
happens when compiling gettext outside of MacPorts. I hadn't gotten
around to reporting it to the gettext developers yet. If you would
like to do so, please do.
So then I followed instructions to copy over a default httpd.conf
file, along with a default php.ini file
Good.
and then created the launchd startup item by copying the plist and
loading it in.
What do you mean? What did you copy? From where? Installing apache2
should have created the org.macports.apache2.plist launchd item for
you. Installing mysql5 +server (which I notice you didn't mention)
should have created the org.macports.mysql5.plist launchd item for you.
When I restarted, apache2 starts as expected and I can access my
webserver. So far so good.
The problem is that after a while - maybe about an hour of use,
every application in OS X starts to die - I get the spinning
rainbow of death. Force quitting works, but other apps keep dying,
even apps I restart. Even the Finder dies. So I force a reboot and
it works for about 2 minutes, and then does the same thing again.
To fix this problem, I boot into single user mode and delete the
'org.macports.apache2.plist' file and reboot. Everything then goes
back to normal.
I then test to make sure it was that plist file by installing the
port again, and same problem shows up again. Any ideas? I'm running
on a MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo).
That's not good. I've never seen such behavior before.
