When I blow away /usr/local/etc/apache24 (really, rename it to something else) and do "pkg upgrade -f apache24", I get the following messages: [1/1] Reinstalling apache24-2.4.33... ===> Creating groups. Using existing group 'www'. ===> Creating users Using existing user 'www'. [1/1] Extracting apache24-2.4.33: 100% You may need to manually remove /usr/local/etc/apache24/extra/httpd-autoindex.conf if it is no longer needed.

Why does it say this? It makes no sense. This is during the *install* phase, remember. The install creates an httpd.conf which is identical to http.conf.sample, of which I had a copy. Anyway, still hosed. Virtualhosts is totally broken, but apache will serve ONE web site. Bill Dudley This email is free of malware because I run Linux.
