Hello all. I'm using version 3.2 for learning purposes. It is installed without problems. I just run on a problem when I tried this: (from another message I read this:) ----------------------------- -Hello -you can use gunzip to extract apache or you can install apache using the ports collection. -download the 9mb ports.tar.gz file from www.freebsd.org/ports/ - Issue the following command as root user zcat ports.tar.gz | tar xvf - -C /usr/ - This will create /usr/ports/ - Now, type in /usr/ports/www/apache/ - Then type in make install ----------------------- So I did it and worked fine. But when I wanted to do "make" on any port I received a message telling me my system was too old and that I need to upgrade and referred me to the http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ page. I read there that I need to update the structure of my ports so I first installed : 3.2 to 3-stable upgrade kit For users of 3.2-release or 3.2-stable after 3.2-release but after that most of the ports don't install (exception was BIND9) and I receive the following message: tron# cd /usr/ports/mail tron# cd majordomo tron# make Error: your port uses an old layout. Please update it to match this bsd.port.mk . *** Error code 1 On this point I don't know what path to follow. I sure could start from zero again but I really would like to know what was my mistake. Thanks in advance for all your help. JB To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
