php5 dyld: error

[Marco Battistella]

Hi everybody,
go easy at me as i'm am at my first attempt on using darwin ports. ;-)

i'm trying to install php5 using darwinports and keeping the regular  
apache installation that comes with os x 10.3 server.
I'm doing this installation in a fresh installation of 10.3 server  
(all updates) and a fresh installation of darwin ports.
In order to use the regular apache i'm partly using some suggestion i  
found at this address:
"http://www.netmusician.org/wiki/index.php/ 
Build_server_with_DarwinPorts"
this is the process i go through:
sudo -s
# port -v install php5 +apache

When the installation process is finished i (sort of) follow the  
advice to enable php in apache
the difference is that i use the apxs that comes with the os x apache  
installation

# cd /opt/local/libexec/apache/
# apxs -a -e -n "php5" libphp5.so

then i create a symbolic link to libphp5.so

# ln -s /opt/local/libexec/apache/libphp5.so /usr/libexec/httpd/ 
libphp5.so

When i ran a configtest this is what i get:

# apachectl configtest
Processing config directory: /etc/httpd/sites/*.conf
Processing config file: /etc/httpd/sites/virtual_host_global.conf
Syntax OK
dyld: /usr/sbin/httpd Undefined symbols:
_checkpw
/usr/sbin/apachectl: line 193: 18723 Trace/BPT trap          $HTTPD -t

I have attempted a few options but the result was identical:
installing apache 1.3.x with darwin ports before installing php5
non installing apache 1.3.x (or as the case was uninstalling it)  
before installing php5
I have also attempted to make a few modification to the Portfile  
which was very instructive to the working of portfiles but didn't  
help solve my problem

does anybody have suggestions (or even better solutions ;-)?
Maybe i'm missing something very basic...
anyway.
thank you.
Marco
