Hi Guys, I did search the board but there are so many config ways to do it, so I just want to ask simpliest way to get a webserver to run the phpbb boardforum.

--------------------
emerge apache2
emerge mod_php
emerge mysql
--------------------
Should it be working? if I do emerge like that? Any tips or suggestions would be helpful. thank in advance.
ciao

Make sure to add the approiate use flags to your make.conf :
Code:

USE="mysql apache2"

Also make sure that you have php emerged.

After that , then the fun part, the setup!

I'd install mysql first so that php can pick it up and use the shared libs.

As strange as it may sound, this is discussed in the "Desktop Configuration Guide". Most ppl forget to issue the "ebuild ... config" commands that are required by mod_php and, if applicable, mod_ssl.

Dunno if it really is necessary, but hey, better be safe than without webserver :)
