Installworld errors with mtree

2004-06-21 Thread Timms, Simon
Hi, I was just helping a friend through an install world and, as seems to be the way with his computer, we ran into problems. We were updating an early 5 series (possibly 5.0 release) to 5.2_1. We went through all the steps as outlined in UPDATING and everything seemed to be working fine right

Hi, I'm taking a class right now on system administration. Being a lover of FreeBSD my server box in the lab runs FreeBSD 5.1 release; alone amongst a sea of linux and Solaris. I need to setup apache, postresql and mod_php4 on the box. This is simple enough usually, however the lab does not

RE: frustrating *dumb* problem getting php to work under apache

2003-08-14 Thread Timms, Simon
humm, that does sound frustrating and you seem to be doing everything right. Did you install php or mod_php? Are you restarting apache after you change your httpd.conf? Are your php pages .php or .php3 or .php4? -Original Message- From: tb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday,

RE: Well, we're getting closer. Still having issues installing BitTorrent.

well it isn't really a bittorrent problem but rather a python one. I am getting it too on 5.1 with a fresh ports tree. As a temp fix you can define WITHOUT_GUI and do a make install on bittorrent. That seems to work but you won't get the stylish GUI. -OR- Try editing the Makefile in

Well this should really be on -questions, I'll forward it there. This is a huge config file but iff I am reading it correctly then what the problem probably is; is SSL. Mod_php4 only gets loaded if you define SSL. It may be that ssl is not defined. So try it by moving the LoadModule

Hi, I have been trying to install the mod_jk or mod_jk2 tomcat connectors from /usr/ports/www/mod_jk(2). Unfortunately I get an error during the build of either one. I have an up to date ports collection. Has anybody else got this to work? Iff so then how? /bin/sh

sounds like you are doing pretty good. If you are getting the gray screen and black X then your video card is supported and you have started X. What you are missing is a window manager. I don't know what window manager you want but give fluxbox a try, it is in the ports collection. If you want
