Hi all,

I am still trying to recover problems caused by the iconv stuff, but I only seem to be making things worse. At the moment, I can't reinstall www/apache22. I've run portsnap fetch extract to make sure the ports tree is up to date. I reset the Apache configuration file to the default. I run make config. it wants to install a dependency, databases/db42, but I keep seeing this:
Code:

Stop in /usr/ports/databases/db42.

Any ideas about what is going on here? How can I get apache22 up and running again?

Thanks.
 
Blch.... thank you @wblock. I'd forgotten that that's what I'd actually done, though it was with apache24. (BTW, you forgot to close your ports tag--as one who always does that, it's nice to see I'm not the only one.) Are you referring to the entry from 20131217?
At any rate, when I ran into this, what I did was just stop, install databases/db5, then try again to install www/apache24. This fixed it for me--at the time, I was in a hurry so never even checked on why it happened, just assumed that I'd overlooked something in /usr/ports/UPDATING.

Following the instructions given here, I added the following line to /etc/make.conf
Code: 
WITH_BDB_VER=5

SInce I kept getting the strip error message while trying to compile db5 and db6, I ended up manually downloaded this package from ftp.freebsd.org: db5-5.3.21.0.tbz and installing it with pkg_add. This allowed me to rebuild and reinstall www/apache22.

Ugly, but it worked. :)
