Hi Chong, the +server variant has been obsolete after the post published. to solve this problem you need to install the mysql5-server instead of mysql5

When I typed in the “sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist” command, I got an error:

launchctl: Couldn’t stat(“/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist”): No such file or directory

Please help? Thanks!

ur default snow leopard seems not stopped yet.
try to turn off the auto start for default apache.
then start your manual install apache2 manually.

I just turned off the default Snow Leopard Apache in the system preferences. Then tried to use:

sudo /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper start

Then I got this (48)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
