apache2 not available. listed as dependence by other extensions.

Can't find Apache2 no available in the tcz repository
However php5.tcz extension lists apache2.tcz in its dependencies.

It looks like apache2.tcz isn't in the repo...there is an apache2.tce. I must have missed this somehow  :-\
you can also use php5-cgi and lighttpd. Its a lighter setup then apache, and I'm not sure if the apache extension can use SSL or not.

There will be a php update when 5.3.1 comes out.

Hi robc. Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately I cannot use lighttpd because I'm building a dev environment for a system which uses apache in production. For now, I will then use apache2.tce and see if that works together with the other tcz extensions. If apache becomes available as tcz (for example when there's only one repository), I would switch then.

What is about tce2tcz?

For production use, the XAMPP project (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html) installs into /opt directory. So using a persistent /opt provides a complete web environment.

Xampp is a great solution combined with tc. Note that the latest version of Xampp includes php 5.3.0 which breaks many php applications as a result of deprecating several functions.
