Successful upgrade to Yosemite
With the various sob stories heard here about a bollixed upgrade, I thought I may as report success. Having Mavericks 10.9.5 (and 10.9.4 before that, and Snow Leopard 10.6.8 before that), it went like a dream, costing me three hours, a few cups of coffee, and a massive hole in my ADSL budget (to the extent that I'd brick-walled it, and now I'm throttled back to 256MB/s). Didn't like the garish colours, but found the dark option, courtesy of the GottaBeMobile site. Not too fond of the new Calendar either, but what the hell; a change is as good as a holiday, as they say. The new Reminders is a bit spiffy. Looks like my Apple ID has changed once again, and I had to use my Yahoo address this time, as all my other ones were taken. Odd. Went to disable iCloud (I simply don't trust it, based on confirmed stories I've heard about Yosemite snitching to Apple even when privacy is requested - see https://github.com/fix-macosx/yosemite-phone-home) and it threatened to delete all my documents on the Mac, so I'll look at that one later. Usual relativistic time-dilation effects, such as about a second taking a minute or more, but I'm used to that now. Already had MacPorts 2.3.2 (installed earlier), and Xcode 6.1 had already made itself at home, but MacPorts is still rebuilding itself many hours later (probably because of my now crippled ADSL link). Copious use of Time Machine being made, and just as well because I'd deleted a document I thought I was copying inside TextEdit. Getting various installation notes during the build, which I've probably lost in my scroll-back buffer. I wish these were squirreled away somewhere, with a note at the end saying Please see blah blah for post installation notes or something; now I'll never find 'em, so they'd better not be important. Keep getting a pop-up to do with Java being required for some site or other, but that could be Firefox in the background. Keep seeing warnings about Warning: Deactivate forced. Proceeding despite dependencies. here and there; dunno what they mean. Anyway, no show-stoppers as such, and MacPorts is still beating away at an awesome 256MB/s.

I wish these were squirreled away somewhere, with a note at the end saying Please see blah blah for post installation notes or something; now I'll never find 'em, so they'd better not be important. In general, if a port spits out text during installation that can't be recalled with port notes, that's a bug and you should report it. One awkward exception are the messages about port load that are printed while installing ports with StartupItems. These messages are generated by base, so they're not available through port notes. We should probably do something about that. Keep getting a pop-up to do with Java being required for some site or other, but that could be Firefox in the background. This often appears when configure scripts invoke /usr/bin/java or /usr/bin/javac while probing the system. You can ignore it. Keep seeing warnings about Warning: Deactivate forced. Proceeding despite dependencies. here and there; dunno what they mean. Sounds like you're running port upgrade instead of following the official migration instructions. Note that we don't really support this, and if you run into any non-trivial problems, the first thing we're going to tell you to do is follow the migration instructions. Oh, and I turned 62 today.

Getting Apache to restart
Sigh... I seem to recall this being discussed recently, but I do not recall the outcome. What is the secret to getting Apache to restart, again? Every single web reference I've seen says to use apachectl restart (which is how I do it on FreeBSD), but on Yosemite it remains firmly un-restarted. I could've sworn it worked for earlier releases; if not Mavericks then certainly for Snow Leopard. I don't really have a server on the Mac as such, but I use it for testing pages before sending them to my FreeBSD box. -- Dave Horsfall (VK2KFU) Bliss is a MacBook with a FreeBSD server. http://www.horsfall.org/spam.html (and check the home page whilst you're there) ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
