Hi John, It doesn't look like there are any shibboleth portfiles in the default repositories; no cruise control for you, unfortunately. On a very positive note, however, someone named Scott Cantor has written a thorough and well-organized method<https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/SHIB2/NativeSPMacPortInstallation>for surmounting the obstacles standing in your way. YMMV, based on your configuration and expectations, but it seems like you should be able to make it work.
Oh, read through the howto before attempting. There are dependencies that need to be resolved prior to the main install, like the curl +ssl variant. Some post install config, much of it having to do with apache. Most installs are more straightforward than this example, especially today. Try out some other ports; do some reading, and pretty soon you can make most things work without nearly as much stress, confusion, and breakage. In the meantime, don't worry too much about doing everything according to the One True Solution/Methodology. It doesn't exist. Just best practices that can be learned, and dealing with others who may interpret those ideas differently. Fortunately we have this forum. Good luck. -Z On Wed, Oct 1, 2008 at 7:41 AM, john wu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I tried to install shibboleth to Mac 10.4.11 and got the following error > message: > Warning: It looks like your PortIndex file may be corrupt. > Error: search for portname shibboleth failed: bad argument "": should be > "nonewline" > > Is this related to macports or shibboleth?
