How to install a webserver on FreeBSD



===== Information =====

to install:

  - perl (installed by portupgrade)
  - ruby (installed by portupgrade)
  - mysql50 (didn't seem to listen to my WITH_OPENSSL=yes statement in ''/etc/make.conf'')
  - apache22

===== Proceedure =====




==== make.conf and pkgtools.conf ====

you must define things in ''[[make.conf]]'' and ''[[pkgtools.conf]]'' in order for things to go right - ''[[make.conf]]'' is invoked when directly installing a port, and ''[[pkgtools.conf]]'' is used when upgrading or installing dependencies

==== Perl ====

Installed as a dependency of portupgrade

==== Ruby ====

Installed as a dependency of portupgrade

==== MySQL ====

The following isn't needed if apache_enable="YES" in ''make.conf'':

<code>
# kldload accf_http
</code>
