Problem with re-installing ports

Hello,

I am fairly new at FreeBSD. I tried searching existing topics for a similar problem, but I found none Smilie

I have a problem reinstalling apache22 which I had to remove in my troubleshooting with mysql. Since I've got MySQL working now (joy unbounded!) I now have the task of reinstalling apache.

Before all this, I installed it from /usr/ports/apache22 (make install) and everything worked great after a tiny bit of editing in the httpd.conf.

During my MySQL troubleshooting, I performed a "pkg_delete apache22". Now, I try to do a "make install" again from /usr/ports/apache22 but now it doesn't do anything. I tried a "make", but same story. It just goes like this:

cigva# pwd
/usr/ports/www/apache22
cigva# make install
cigva#

I would have liked to see a myriad of action going on here instead of the above Smilie

Therefore, my question is - if you already have used make install on a port one time, how do you reinstall this port in the future if you uninstall it as I did? I tried pkg_add apache22 but it just says that it cannot stat the package file apache22.

Can anyone help me with this, probably simple, question?

Thanks in advance,

/Klaus
