I've got a FreeBSD 5.3 machine that I run e-mail and Web servers on. The Web server is Apache 2.0. I've installed php 5.0.3 from the ports collection. I've been trying to install a php-based Webmail program but get error messages when I try to use it. From the mailing list for that application, I've been told that my php setup is apparently not compiled with PCRE support. The specific error message I'm getting, after installing the latest version of the Webmail, is: *Fatal error*: Call to undefined function preg_match() in */usr/local/www/data/9-5usa/IlohaMail/include/write_sinc.common.inc* on line *30. *The line in the file in question reads: preg_match($pattern, $ua, $matches); I suppose there would be other lines which would "offend" but haven't come up yet.
*
*Can anyone give me help either on how to install PCRE support into php after it's installed or let me know how to do it from the port. I suppose this would also be an issue with php-5.0.4 (?).
Thanks for any help. You may e-mail me direct if you wish.

There is probably a php-pcre port then if they didn't compile that in by default. I'd email the port maintainer and ask him to build that in by default though. Doesn't make any sense not to.
