Nope. mod_perl has dependencies which are unsatisfied by the default installation of perl-5.8.0 > Checking for LWP::UserAgent......failed > Can't locate LWP/UserAgent.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ./lib > /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0 > /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux > /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) > at Makefile.PL line 1144. This is the problem I mentioned. Maybe LWP isn't included in Perl by default. Tried perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP' but although it guessed the config for CPAN apparently OK, it falls flat on its face trying to install stuff because it can't get files using Lynx, FTP, or wget (goddess knows why not, all three are installed and working just fine). I tried to fix it by editing /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/CPAN/Config.pm to say 'wget' => q[/usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp], to run through my firewall, and this seems to be working, although for every retrieval it has to run and fail FTP and Lynx before it tries wget: it doesn't seem to have been written to find the optimal method first and then apply it to all retrievals. Once LWP is in, maybe mod_perl will compile...:-) ///Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
