Many are having the same problem. Here is my problem, I went and
downloaded the Apache2 version of PHP5, installed the package fine, but
when I did, the webserver wouldn't load. Others are getting the same
problem as I noticed in the entropy's forums. Nobody has helped with
them either. One person mentioned getting it working by comparing the
two versions of the php.ini files. But he didn't mentioned his steps or
the lines. For me to get my system working again, I had to comment out
the PHP5 lines in the httpd.conf file.
With installing from fink, you will need to recompile PHP/Apache.
Apple's developer site has specific info on including GD, but is a long
pain in the ass. Honestly, I have no clue why Apple can't get their
heads out of their asses and include the GD module. It is one of the
most requested pieces for the webserver and no simple solution. Sorry
for the griping, but I am at my wits end on this myself. I have posted
in Apple's forums (and searched), entropy's site, and everything. It
should just work (that is how Apple has everything (mostly)).
When my new Dell server comes in, I will be working on that and seeing
if I have any problems configuring Linux with user authentication with
LDAP users for email. If not, I will drop the Xserve config for the
webserver as I want one box to do both.
