I usually do "perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=C:/apache2" to tell it which Apache 2 to use.
The missing ssleay32.dll problem sounds like something trying to load mod_ssl and not finding an OpenSSL library that it was dynamically linked against. (ssleay32.lib is the Win32 name of libssl.a) When I build Apache 2, I drop an OpenSSL source tree into srclib/ and build it as DLL's. When Apache 2 builds, it sees that OpenSSL and builds mod_ssl against the DLL that I built. My Apache 2 installation then ends up with ssleay32.dll in C:\apache2\bin. If my httpd.conf loads mod_ssl and ssleay32.dll is missing then I'll get the error you have, so "nmake test" would probably do that. Don't know why Makefile.PL would, though. - Steve ------------------------------------------------ Radan Computational Ltd.
