Hi All,
I believe many of you do not remember the paths of the software installations in FreeBSD right?
I myself can forget and thus have to manully search them under the directory view.
So to help me and also you guys, I will start off this post to take note on all important paths of the software installation that is needed.
Here are the list below:
Apache22
/usr/ports/www/apache22
Cronolog for Apache
/usr/ports/sysutils/cronolog
Sudo
/usr/ports/security/sudo
PHP v5.2
/usr/ports/lang/php52/
PHP Extensions
/usr/ports/lang/php52-extentions
Suhosin for PHP
/usr/ports/security/php-suhosin/
Memcache module
/usr/ports/databases/pecl-memcache
Rsync
/usr/ports/sysutils/rsyncmanager/
That’s all for now, you can submit more info to me.
Thanks
I believe many of you have been installing ports collections via the internet. However there may be a problem like:
1. internet is slow thus longer download time.
2. ports collection got updated and hence different version with other servers when install 6 months ago vs install today.
If you experience the above, it is best you find for an alternatives, that is to install via CD 1 of the installation disk.
How to do it? See the steps by steps below:
1. Put in your FBSD CD 1
2. Login as root in the console and type : sysinstall
3. A menu will appear, choose Configure
4. Next Choose Distributions
5. Then scroll down to Ports and press space button to select and then choose ok button.
6. Choose your installation media to be CD/DVD Rom.
Done that’s all! simple and easy.
