Description rearnsha 2015-09-03 11:15:20 UTC 
The apache configuration system is pretty modular and management of upgrades is considerably eased if most of the configuration is (semi-)automatic.

In particular, the mod_php* packages could be installed without requiring any edits to httpd.conf if the packages came with .conf files for the modules and the Includes directories; administrators simply create symlinks to these files and the server is now configured.  Example contents would be:

etc/apache24/modules.d/<nnn>-mod_php.conf:
LoadModule php5_module        libexec/apache24/libphp5.so

etc/apache24/Includes/mod_php.conf:
IfModule php5_module>
  AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
  AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfModule>

Alternatively the files could be installed directly into the apache configuration directories then all that is needed is a simple restart.

As for me, Apache web server is perfect tool for serving HTTP traffic. However, a lot of problems with this web server which happen quite often. For example, I one time I had debugging script execution problems. Didn't know how to solve them for quite a long time until I addressed experts at http://www.writemyessay24h.net/write-my-thesis.php.
 As it a appeared, the reason problem was minor

Maintainer feedback?
Comment 5 Walter Schwarzenfeld freebsd_triage 2019-08-08 12:56:25 UTC 
it is rather a discussion for https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/ .
This is not bug. I close here, after two years with no action.
If you think, it is somethings left, reopen.
