Yes, mysql is not running.

You could try running mysqld directly to see if it gives any clues as to what 
the problem is:

sudo /opt/local/lib/mysql57/bin/mysqld --user=_mysql

If the mysql.sock file does not exist and mysql57 is running then there is 
likely a my.cnf options file in one of the paths that mysql searches.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/option-files.html

Rename or delete the options file if found.

Since this is warning and not an error this command likely did what you wanted.

Did you install the mysql57-server port?

sudo port install mysql57-server
sudo port load mysql57-server

I did not realize this wiki article exists. It should be removed as the 
“dovecot” port is ancient.

You should use the “dovecot2” port. If you want virtual users look at one of 
the sql variants:
port variants dovecot2

Example for virtual users in mysql:
sudo port install dovecot2 +mysql56

If you want sieve support (server side filtering) install the dovecot2-sieve 
port:
sudo port install dovecot2-sieve

If you want to train/retrain messages as spam by dragging message from/to a 
“Junk” folder install the dovecot2-antispam port:
sudo port install dovecot2-antispam

After that you should be able to follow most any dovecot2 configuration howto, 
skipping the install parts.

Apache2 (2.2) stores files in prefix/apache2. Apache24-devel (2.4) fixes that.

Yes, llvm-3.4 is installed with the +llvm34 variant which is preventing the

I believe most openssl dependent ports are not binary distributable due to the 
openssl license.

If libressl has a better license this would be a good reason to make it the 
default ssl and openssl the alternative.

Xcode major version upgrades, migration?

[Bradley Giesbrecht]

The migration guide [1] says the migration is not if you are only upgrading 
Xcode. Does this hold for Xcode major version upgrades?

 Regarding the mirrors- I know of no reason the iMac would be using a 
 different set of mirrors than the MacBook. When using the MacBook on the 
 evening of the 17th and subsequently additional attempts on the following 
 day, the Fetch phase went through the entire list of mirrors before Port 
 Upgrade gave up. Each time the fetch hung at 99%. Later a manual port fetch 
 reported 99.9%. It was as if the final handshake was never acknowledged (or 
 something like that!). Unfortunately, I didn’t pay attention to the byte 
 count.

Network?

I just pushed mariadb 5.5.45.

 Basically you seem to be asking for something that can magically analyze
 random source code and determine that it will conflict. This is not as
 simple as you seem to think it is; in fact it's a very unsolved problem.
 
 Even MacPorts doens't know which of its ports will cause a conflict; it
 relies solely on the package maintainers to manually declare them as much.
 
 If only we tracked what each package installed: we could find all
 conflicts before they happen, and we could tell people what packages to
 install for a given binary!

 What are you intending to do? A clean install, or just a format and then 
 reinstall from backup which will hopefully leave you with little to no free 
 space fragmentation (supposing you have a HDD)?
 
 I myself have a confirmed faith in CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) combined with a 
 series of external harddisks. Either make a fresh clone, wipe your main 
 boot disk, and clone back onto it, or do a fresh install and then use the 
 Migration Assistant to pull of everything you want from the clone (yes, 
 that'll work though you may have to boot off the external once for 
 everything to be in place).
 
 In the TC's defence, I've only ever had to use it once, when I deleted the
 wrong file...  I had to go back about a week.  Whew!
 
 That's what TM is great for. But I wouldn't want to have to do without the 
 possibility to boot off an external with a recent clone of my set-up!

 Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:

 The same thing happens if I try to execute sudo port load mysql56-server. 
 Evidently mysql is never starting with my non-default datadir location.

 Yes, it's not the same thing, but it would probably fix the problem that
 started this thread.
 
 And there is no indication on the guide.macports.org page as to what the 
 output of startupitem.netchange might generate.
 
 i.e. no translation between the syntax of launchd and startupitems.
 
 It doesn't change how launchd handles the job, it simply adds
 --restart-netchange to the arguments passed to daemondo.
 
 As I've said many times in the past, the StartupItem code could really
 use some love. Especially allowing jobs to not use daemondo if they
 support running directly from launchd, and exposing more of launchd's
 functionality.

Could be a GSoC 2015 project.

 You're talking implementation details, I'm talking feature.  And the

 It's quite a lot more than just that. You're asking for a way for the user 
 to opt in to auto-removal of archives and opt out of the ability to use the 
 deactivate feature. MacPorts currently relies on the deactivate feature 
 during uninstallation, so there would be changes required there as well.
 
 I have a question: what exactly is in the archive?
 
 You can decompress it yourself to take a look: it contains all the files 
 installed by the port, and also a copy of the Portfile itself and some other 
 metadata.
 
 Why is that that
 deactivate does not archive what was installed on the disk?  I mean,
 if the archives is exactly what is deployed, then it's pure duplication,
 including in an activate/deactivate scenario: one copy should be enough,
 be it deployed, or compressed, no?  Maybe that would be less invasive,
 I don't know.
 
 Because nobody (at least not me) thought to program it that way.
 
 There is also a problem which occurs more often than it should, which is 
 this: a user installs MacPorts in its default prefix, and installs some 
 ports, and then installs a third-party software installer, which was itself 
 built with MacPorts in its default prefix. Developers should not create 
 installers of MacPorts-provided software with MacPorts in its default prefix 
 (they should custom-configure MacPorts to a prefix unique to their software), 
 but they do. Users should not install such misconfigured installers, but they 
 do. And the consequence is that the files of some the user's installed ports 
 are now overwritten with older versions, or versions built for the wrong 
 architecture. Currently, a user can work around that by deactivating the port 
 (i.e. deleting all the files the port installed), then reactivating the port 
 (i.e. decompressing the archive which contains the correct versions of the 
 files).

This is a wonderful sanity check. Unsure? Deactivate/activate, certainty 
restored.

Re: scope of local PortGroup definition files

 Correction: 
 
 This is not limited to the compiler blacklist portgroup, nor to Linux.
 
 Exactly as I feared, my changes to the qt4, qt5 and kde4 portgroups need to 
 be copied to the portgroup directory in the default tree if they are to be 
 visible to all ports and not just to the ports in the local repository.

Is your local tree in sources.conf?
grep -v -E (^ *#|^$) /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf

 Which means that every selfupdate will undo any changes you might have 
 applied.
 
 Out of curiosity, what if I set my local repository to be the default? Will 
 selfupdate update that tree, or will it continue to update the one under 
 ${prefix}/var/macports/source/ ?

If you used svn instead of rsync port sync you would not experience this 
overwrite issue.

 Yes. It's my understanding that is required if you want it to be taken into 
 account ...

You can have a local ports that are not in sources.conf and you interact with 
them by giving port the path to the port dir rather then the name.

 If you used svn instead of rsync port sync you would not experience this 
 overwrite issue.
 
 Until a change to the file in question was pushed, at which time you'd 
 probably get a conflict error?

Not an error as much as question, incoming change on locally modified file, 
what do you want to do. The svn documentation can better explain what your 
options would be, theirs full, mine full, etc.

 `port sync` updates all sources that aren't marked nosync in sources.conf.
 
 The comments in sources.conf
 #  To prevent a source from synchronizing when `port sync` is used,
 #  append [nosync] at the end as shown in this example:
 #  Example: file:///Users/landonf/misc/MacPorts/ports [nosync]
 suggest that a local repo will also be synced if not marked that way, but 
 from what/where?
 
 So, should I change my current
 
 file:///opt/local/site-ports
 rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ [default]
 
 into
 
 file:///opt/local/site-ports [default] [nosync]
 rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/
 
 or will that prevent me from getting updates at all?

I suggest switching to svn for syncing:
https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/SyncingWithSVN

and then in sources.conf:
file:///opt/local/site-ports [nosync]
file:///opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports/ [default]

or if you want to keep using rsync:
file:///opt/local/site-ports [nosync]
rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ [default]


With svn there is less reason to use a local repo.

 MySQL uses a configuration file called my.cnf. Any file not named my.cnf 
 is not used.
 
 There are many locations where MySQL looks for this file, and in a particular 
 order. My recollection is that /etc/my.cnf (also known on OS X as 
 /private/etc/my.cnf because /etc is a symlink to /private/etc) is the first 
 location checked (so if my.cnf is found there then other locations are not 
 checked) but I don't want to mislead you so I would refer you to the MySQL 
 documentation which should list all the locations. The exception is the 
 location that is specific to each MacPorts MySQL version, for example 
 /opt/local/etc/mysql56/my.cnf for the mysql56 port. I don't remember with 
 what precedence that location is checked.

Please refer to the mysql docs, look for On Unix, Linux and Mac OS X, MySQL

There is _no_ need to set these options. The only non-default option set by

It is probably best to start with an empty /opt/local/etc/mysql56/my.cnf

An empty /opt/local/etc/mysql56/my.cnf should just work.

 I _think_ the problem was conflicting settings in existing my.cnf files from

Correct, mysql will pull settings from various places:

 Thanks a lot everyone
 
 So now i know that i'm not alone and that if i had searched the tickets, i 
 would have seen the answer ; sorry for that. I'm not very good at using 
 MacPorts.
 If i sum everything that has been said, what i should try is :
 
 sudo port uninstall --follow-dependencies akonadi
 then
 sudo port install akonadi +mysql51

This will install akonadi and mysql 5.1.72 which is pretty old.

Akonadi defaults to using mariadb 5.5.39 which is probably a better option 
unless you have a need for an older mysql.

To install akonadi with default mariadb use:
sudo port uninstall akonadi qt4-mac-mysql5-plugin mysql5 mysql5-server mysql51 
mysql51-server
sudo port install akonadi

 My bigger point of confusion is WHERE to do this or even how to confirm what

$ ps ax | grep mysqld

 Further, though 'which mysql' points to /opt/local, starting and stopping the

 settings page. When it is off, there is no mysql client available.

If you are using one of the mysql databases supplied by MacPorts the preferred 
way of starting and stopping the database is by loading and unloading the 
*.server port.

Example for mysql55-server:
$ sudo port install mysql55-server
$ sudo port load mysql55-server

 finds only two, one in /opt/local/etc/mysql5 and the other in 
 /opt/local/etc/mysql55.

Please use mysql55 or newer. If you need help moving your databases I can help, 
it is usually very easy.

 mysql client: show variables like %version%;

What command are you typing to call the mysql client?

 1- How does the MacPorts installation of MediaWiki integrate with OSX Server 
 under Maverick -- OSX 10.9.4 and Server 3.1.2. (anybody tried it with

The MacPorts MediaWiki port installs the MediaWiki files and some basic 
dependencies. The configuration is left to the MacPorts user.
If by  integrate you are looking for OpenDirectory integration have a look at 
this MediaWiki extension [1]

 2- Does the MediaWiki port integrate with ImageMagick or GD?

These are MediaWiki configuration options you will need to do yourself [2].

To use the MacPorts ImageMagick convert command adding this to 
LocalSettings.php should do the trick.
$wgUseImageMagick = true;
$wgImageMagickConvertCommand = /opt/local/bin/convert;

Note: presumes MacPorts default prefix.

 3- The port listed in the portfiles web-page was version 1.17.0  last updated 
 7 months ago
 The current version of MediaWiki (just released  7/30) is either 1.23.2 or 
 1.22.9  -- apparently the intervening releases were security releases.

Look at MacPorts Trac Reports [3] for an Update ticket and if none exist open 
a new Update ticket [4] following the Trac Ticket guide [5].

 Anybody else working with MediaWiki on OSX Server?

Not specifically OS X Server but I have installed MediaWiki many times over

 a) I'm a regular reader and contributor to r-help and typically use Markmail

Is MacPorts List Archives [1] what you are after?

 b) I'm trying to adhere to the conventions that the official Mac port of R is

 because R modules (if that is the right word) are statically linked and they 
 do not feel that the choice of where packages get put by these installation 
 services end up in the canonical directory. So I am trying to update my curl

You might want to rebuild your ports to ensure they did not link against

This probably works for this purpose:
sudo mv /usr/local{,-moved-for-macports}

port echo requested and active  port-requested-active.txt

 Based on some bad internet advice I appear to have installed homebrew 
 without realizing it is not compatible (so to speak) with macports, and so 
 I installed ghostscript via homebrew, without realizing that I had already 
 installed it via macports, and that it appears to have been already 
 installed natively...
 
 What I mean is:
 
 If I port installed I can see
 ghostscript @9.10_0
 ghostscript @9.10_2+x11 (active)
 
 If I brew list installed I see
 ghostscript: stable 9.07, HEAD
 but actually it is not linked, and I get a message
 Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/ghostscript/9.07/bin/wftopfa
 Target /usr/local/bin/wftopfa already exists. You may need to delete it.
 
 but if I just run gs straight from the terminal, I have
 GPL Ghostscript 9.05 (2012-02-08)
 
 I don't know how I created this mess...but am not sure what to do.
 
 Should I delete ghostscript from homebrew? If I do will I destroy it from 
 macports? Will I destroy the 9.05 version?
 I know that I am using ghostscript with LyX and some other TeX programs...I 
 will have to figure out how to make sure they will still function but I 
 think they all look for gs in usr/local/bin...ack!

You probably need to add this line somewhere near the bottom of

Include conf/extra/mod_php55.conf


 apache2 was started as follows 
  sudo port load apache2
 
 I see the following processes
  /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
  /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
 
 Modifications to httpd.conf included changes to
 User, Group, ServerAdmin, ScriptAlias, DocumentRoot consistent with
 the prior configuration for the Apple apache2.
 DocumentRoot and ScriptAlias settings seemed to be interpolated

You might want to make fewer change at a time and verify results as you go.

 It will be easier to avoid the pitfalls after the next MacPorts release
 (or now, when running trunk) by using trace mode (port -t ...) for
 everything. It does add a little performance overhead, but it
 effectively ensures a build doesn't see any files installed in
 /usr/local or any other non-standard location.
 
 I've been running this configuration for weeks for every installation
 and update I've attempted and it works pretty well for me.

 Ideally, if a port has one, the maintainer has installed it in

 changelogs; not all ports whose software includes changelogs install them 
 there, or at all; and the name of the file can vary.


Use port contents to look for a changelog:

The man pages can be helpful:
man port macports.conf portfile portgroup portstyle porthier

 2) Do I edit patches  the portfile in place on my /opt filesystem, or can I 
 build a port from within my own source tree?

Either will work. If you work in /opt consider switching from rsync to svn to 
preserve your work:
http://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.subversion
See item 3 in above link.
https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/SyncingWithSVN

 3) If you found that a particular port didn't build, what would you do first?

# Start clean for complete log
port clean port name
port build port name
port log port name

 4) If you found that the port didn't build because of some (possibly obscure) 
 autoconf problem, what would you do?

Develop a patch of the Portfile and/or sources, open a trac ticket and attach 
the patch.

 Perhaps the first place I could start would be to write up a wiki page 
 describing how to fix broken ports.  Would that be of use?

Yes, or if one exists possibly improve it.

 (Don't know why I modified the target, but it didn't have any visible

 MacPorts automatically sets MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to the correct value 
 for all ports.
 
 I thought so, but it was explicitly called out in the port file. 
 
 Ah, I see, the portfile explicitly changes MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.4 
 on 10.5:
 
 platform darwin 9 {
macosx_deployment_target 10.4
 }
 
 This was added in r35712 (on 2008-04-03) but without explanation why. It 
 looks like it was just copied from a similar darwin 8 block that had already 
 been in the portfile since r22077 (on 2007-02-17) again without explanation.
 
 MacPorts base didn't start setting MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET globally until 
 r34541 (on 2008-02-27) which was not released to the public until MacPorts 
 1.7.0 (on 2008-12-13). So the manual setting of MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET in 
 the ldns portfile is an anachronism that should be removed.

ldns 1.6.16 builds on ppc 10.5.8 with these Portfile changes:

$ svn diff $(port dir ldns) | grep -E ^(-|\+)
--- 
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports/net/ldns/Portfile 
(revision 109906)

-configure.args  --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --with-ssl=${prefix}
+configure.args  --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --with-ssl=${prefix} 
--disable-ecdsa
-platform darwin 9 {
-macosx_deployment_target 10.4

Unbound fails for me on ppc 10.5.8.

The mysql51, mysql55, mysql56, mariadb and percona ports do not conflict so

I would like MacPorts to have an [un]official default mysql port that ports can

 To some degree, you can answer that already, by checking if there is a 
 recent package on the packages server.
 
 
 
 True but a non-trivial fraction of ports not able to be distributed as 
 binaries.
 
 I was about to say the same. To my mind, this question is much 
 better/simply answered by just checking to see if the build bots 
 successfully built the port question. I don't see what you gain by getting 
 user stats as well.
 
 Just because the buildbots could build the port when it was last updated 
 doesn't mean that anybody can still build it today. For example, one of its 
 dependencies could have been updated in a way that is incompatible.
 
 Am I missing something; how does one look up whether/when the buildbots 
 built a specific port?
 
 I'm not aware of a way to look it up. If there's a package on the packages 
 server, then it was built by the buildbots. But the absence of a package on 
 the packages server does not necessarily indicate a buildbot failure; as you 
 say, many ports are not distributable.
 
 We should think about incorporating information about whether a port was 
 successfully built into the main web site.

Re: error message in Macports

 Hi all,
 
 Newbie to Macports so excuse if this is a dumb question….
 
 We cannot use rsync so am updating using svn.  Anyway, I type port sync, and 
 it comes back with this error:
 
 Synchronization of the local ports tree failed doing an svn update
 Port sync failed: synchronization of 1 source(s) failed
 
 
 WHAT does this mean and how do I find out which source failed?

I'm not sure.

Make port more verbose and see if you get any clues.

$ sudo port -d sync

 A further question:
 
 Does the virtualbox-guest-additions port install the additions on the

This might answer your question:

 I decided to install Virtualbox via MacPorts as opposed to installing the 
 binary from Oracle. What has happended, though, is that MacPorts has started 
 recompiling dependencies with +Universal (currently on glib2).
 
 What I don't understand is why this is necessary, particularly since 
 Virtualbox will never run on anything other than an Intel-based system?
 
 Virtualbox installs a kernel extension. So it needs to build for the same 
 architecture as your kernel.
 
 Your Mac is presumably one of the early Intel Macs that uses a 32-bit kernel, 
 therefore Virtualbox builds itself 32-bit. In order to do that, MacPorts must 
 first rebuild all of its dependencies universal (32-bit and 64-bit).

buildbot +universal would be nice

Pausing would make building a large dependency chain a real hassle and not work 
well for the buildbots unless overridden.

Perhaps we could simply make port notes more prominent in the online 
documentation and suggest users read the notes before install/upgrade.

$ port notes outdated
$ sudo port upgrade outdated

 The modification IMHO belongs to port(1) itself:
 remember what was installed in this run, then
 print out all the messages (as opposed to printing

 have to watch for it or scan the output.

Re-posting all the notes at the end of an install/upgrade run may not give all 
the details you are looking for. What if all the dependencies were already 
installed and the current version?

What is wrong with this current functionality for getting at the notes:
$ port notes depof:kdenlive

or more complete:
$ port notes rdepof:kdenlive

and less noisy:
$ port notes rdepof:kdenlive | grep -v has no notes.

Re: NTFS-3G fuse4x dependency

[Bradley Giesbrecht]

On Feb 26, 2013, at 11:02 AM, Chris Murphy wrote:

 NTFS-3G on Macports lists fuse4x as a dependency. Does that mean when 
 building  NTFS-3G as an installer package, that it will install fuse4x?
 
 Since fuse4x has been merged into OSXFUSE, when can Macports depending on 
 fuse4x be expected to depend on OSXFUSE instead? And in the meantime, is it 
 recommended to install/re-install OSXFUSE anytime a fuse4x dependent port is 
 installed, to make sure OSXFUSE is used instead of fuse4x?

Fuse ports would need a osxfuse port to depend on and MacPorts does not 
currently provide one.

I don't see where anyone has opened a trac ticket requesting a osxfuse port:
https://trac.macports.org/search?q=osxfuse

Please open a new trac ticket request for osxfuse. If you can supply a osxfuse 
Portfile that would be a plus.
