Installing Apache v2

The good news about version 2 is, that SSL is included. But be aware that SSL is configured in a seperate file.

cd /usr/ports/www/apache20
make install clean distclean

If gettext has not yet been installed, you will be prompted for the options.:

[X] EXAMPLES install example files
[ ] HTMLMAN install man pages in HTML format

Start apache:

/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start

Browse into your domain ... Apache works as expected if you see the default page. You can of course host multiple domains, and this is shown at the configuration page along with information on how to use SSL enabled name-based virtual hosts.
