Hi all, I'm new to this list but was hoping someone could help me. I recently installed MacPorts 1.4 RC2 and compiled from source. Once installed, I did a port file update, etc before installing apache2 + php5 + mysql5. Everything went pretty smoothly (except for some app named conftest that crashed - see crash report below - I'm not sure it matters.) So then I followed instructions to copy over a default httpd.conf file, along with a default php.ini file and then created the launchd startup item by copying the plist and loading it in. When I restarted, apache2 starts as expected and I can access my webserver. So far so good. The problem is that after a while - maybe about an hour of use, every application in OS X starts to die - I get the spinning rainbow of death. Force quitting works, but other apps keep dying, even apps I restart. Even the Finder dies. So I force a reboot and it works for about 2 minutes, and then does the same thing again. To fix this problem, I boot into single user mode and delete the 'org.macports.apache2.plist' file and reboot. Everything then goes back to normal. I then test to make sure it was that plist file by installing the port again, and same problem shows up again. Any ideas? I'm running on a MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo). Thanks for any help!
