Hello, I use MacPorts recently and I installed a Web Server with this command : sudo port install php5 +apache2 +mysql5 The server turns perfectly but I would like to know if it is possible to install Ruby in the same way as php5 to see what is more both turn at the same time?! Thanks -- Maire Alban.

Fetching nspr failed due to wrong master_sites
by js 01 Jan '07

01 Jan '07

Hi list, I tried to install spidermonkey and discovered that URL specified in the master_sites of nspr is wrong. (nspr is a port that spidermonkey depends on) After applying the following patch, the installation worked. 12c12 < master_sites ftp://ftp.mozilla.com/pub/mozilla.org/nspr/releases/${version}/src/ --- > master_sites ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/nspr/releases/v${version}/src/ According to the Portfile of nspr, there's no maintainer of nsrp. Is there anyone who can take care of this? Thanks.

Hello, I am trying to create a Portfile for gmtl and am getting an error on the archive step. DEBUG: Skipping completed com.apple.destroot (gmtl) ---> Packaging tgz archive for gmtl 0.4.12_0 DEBUG: Executing com.apple.archive (gmtl) Error: Target com.apple.archive returned: error copying "/opt/local/ var/db/dports/build/_Volumes_data_dports-dev_devel_gmtl/ work/.darwinports.gmtl.state" to "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/ _Volumes_data_dports-dev_devel_gmtl/work/destroot/+STATE": no such file or directory Warning: the following items did not execute (for gmtl): com.apple.activate com.apple.archive com.apple.install Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. From above the destroot dir is not present in the work dir. I have followed the tutorial instructions and looked at some examples but can not seem to make it work. Any suggestions on how to make the file work is appreciated. Thanks. Doug
