Last year we decided to add another server, and seeing how FreeBSD 7's ip stack is a fair bit quicker than the previous versions, and the fact that we'd be using it for quite a while we decided to use FreeBSD 7(.0).
It's been nothing but worries and troubles and endless nights of trying to put right that which had gone wrong. We've started over some 6 times now and still no joy.
First we went with the HOWTO: DA Installing on FreeBSD 7.0 64-bit AMD64 which didn't work at all. When we finally got rid of php problems suphp didn't work as it should, and neither did MySQL. After 4 times trying and reinstalling we just quit and decided to just use custombuild, no extras.
2 server reinstalls later we still didn't have a server of production-worthy status. When we thought all was well Installatron didn't quite agree, or there were other problems.
This past weekend we decided to still use custombuild but revert to apache 1.3. Now apache doesn't want to cooperate. After a clean install it just quits at start on
I'm at my wits end. Does anybody have any suggestions? Not just about the lastest problem but about the whole story. I'm sure there must be someone who succeeded in getting a server up & running much like we were planning. It's just that 2 months of this is really getting on my nerves.
