MySQL first
=======================================================
# Shut down MySQL:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
cd mysql-5.0.27
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql \
            --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data \
            --enable-assembler \
            --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static CFLAGS="-O3" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 \
            -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti"

# Change to root
su

# I like to run the process in the background (&),
# redirect the output to a log file,
# and tail -f the log file.

# Make it:
make > ~/mysql_make.log &
# Watch the make:
tail -f ~/mysql_make.log

# Install it:
make install > ~/mysql_install.log &
# Watch the install:
tail -f ~/mysql_install.log

PHP as a CGI:
=====================================================================
cd /usr/local/src/php-5.2.0

# Make sure curl is where we think it is
locate curl | grep include

# Configure it
./configure --with-xml --with-zlib --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
            --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config \
            --with-curl=/usr/local/include \
            --enable-cgi --enable-fastcgi \
            --enable-force-redirect \
            > ~/phpconfig.log &
tail -f ~/phpconfig.log

# Edit the Makefile to eliminate duplicates in the EXTRA_LIBS line
pico Makefile
# New: EXTRA_LIBS = -lcrypt -lmysqlclient -liconv -lcurl -lz -lm -lxml2 -lssl -lcrypto

# Make it
make > ~/php_make.log &
tail -f ~/php_make.log

# Install it
make install > ~/php_install.log &
tail -f ~/php_install.log

LightTPD:
=================================================================
# Check requirements
locate libpcre
locate libz

# If those aren't there, find them in ports and install

cd /usr/local/src/lighttpd-1.4.11
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-pcre=/usr/local

# Make it
make > ~/lighttpd_make.log &
tail -f ~/lighttpd_make.log

# Install it
make install > ~/lighttpd_install.log &
tail -f ~/lighttpd_install.log
