How to install Apache on OmniOS

I am attempting to install Apache on OmniOS. I followed the instructions here: option 2 https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/3.+Installing+software+and+package+management

Ran the command:

  • echo $PATH results in /opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
  • curl https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/packages/SmartOS/bootstrap/bootstrap-2016Q4-x86_64.tar.gz | gtar -zxpf - -C /
  • pkgin -y update
  • pkgin -y install apache-2.4.6 resulted in the messages Calculating dependencies...done and then nothing to do

I can not find the apache service or configuration directory as they are described here: https://docs.joyent.com/public-cloud/instances/infrastructure/images/smartos/apache

  • /opt/local/etc/httpd The configuration directory for Apache
  • svcs pkgsrc/apache Checking service for Apache

Server Info:

  • uname -v results in omnios-r151026-d9b45886bd
  • Running x86
  • Also running SunONE webserver

Though incomplete, my commands did make a change. My Perl scripts can no longer find DBI.

Why does the Apache install say there is nothing to do? What am I missing?

UPDATE

  • Ran which apache2 resulted in no apache2
  • Ran pkgin list to list all installed packages. Only apache reference is apache-maven-3.5.4
  • Ran find . -name '*apache*' in the following directories:
    • \etc nothing
    • \opt found:
      • vim, el, and elc files in SUNWspro
      • org-apache-tools-ant-module files and folder in netbeans/3.5V11/modules/patches
      • apache folder in SUNWwbsvr/plugins/java/samples/webapps/jstl/src/org which contains java files
      • vim, tag, el and elc files in sfw --- also an apache folder in sfw which contains readme/bash type files for apache/php and one so file
      • apache-maven-3.5.4 files/folders in local
      • org-apache-xml-resolver* files in sunstudio12.1
    • '\usr' found:
      • 2 vims in share/vim/vim80/syntax
      • apache-fcgi.conf in lib/python2.7/vendor-packages/cherrypy/scaffold
    • '\var' nothing

As far as I can tell, the binaries have not been installed

Solution

  • I tried running pkgin -y install apache-2 and it worked. It installed apache-2.4.3. Perhaps apache-2.4.6 does not exist in the repository.
