Are you using the old php5 / php5-mongo ports or the new php53 / php53-mongo ports? Either should work, but it's good to know which we should look at.


$ php53 -i | grep -C 1 mongo 
/opt/local/var/db/php53/ming.ini,
/opt/local/var/db/php53/mongo.ini,
/opt/local/var/db/php53/mssql.ini,

mongo

$ php53 -r 'echo (int)class_exists("Mongo")."\n";'

Using drupal installed by MacPorts, or manually? If by MacPorts, which one—drupal5, drupal6, or drupal7? If drupal5, it depends on php52; non-bundled extensions like mongodb were never made available in MacPorts for php52.

MacPorts does that for you automatically when you install or activate any PHP extension; you don't need to, and should not, add that manually.
