Thanks all! I added apache_enable="YES" to the file and all is well. I was expecting rc.conf to be in /usr/local/etc instead.

Hello aaron,

Monday, November 1, 2004, 9:15:25 PM, you wrote:

Using FreeBSD 4.10 release and confused about what to do with the
startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh when installing the
port.  The package on another machine works fine b/c it just has
options to start and stop in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh.

The port however has a totally different file asking to:

  # Define these apache_* variables in one of these files:
  # /etc/rc.conf
  # /etc/rc.conf.local
  # /etc/rc.conf.d/apache
  #
  # DO NOT CHANGE THESE DEFAULT VALUES HERE

  apache_enable=${apache_enable-"NO"}
  apache_flags=$(apache_flags-""}
  apache_pidfile=${apache_pidfile-"/var/run/httpd.pid"}

I do not have rc.conf.  What's the preferred way of starting
apache on boot.  Why not just do it the same way as the package?


I really think, that you /etc/rc.conf have.

just type: echo "apache_eneble="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
and then /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh start

this should works.
