Actually, I had downloded the RPMS for Red Hat 7.1, I had even tried using up2date. the thing is Red hadt's certificate that's used by up2date to connect to Rh site expired somewhere in august.; so i was facing the same probel truying to upgrade up2date for Rh 7.1 :) , It gave some python-xmlrpc, which inturn asked for mkinitrd 3.2 which inturn.....
So I decided to compile from source I downloded apache_1.3.28 source, and mod_perl first I compiled apache with the folowing options configured apache with the folowing options ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=most--enable-shared=m ax --with-layout=RedHat make make install then i compiled mod=perl withthe following options perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.28/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 It works now... BTW: how do I check for all the modules that are installed with apache? mani ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandip Bhattacharya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "The Linux-Delhi mailing list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 12:14 PM Subject: Re: [ilugd] Apache 1.3x on pCQ 7.1 > Mithun Bhattacharya wrote: > > I would not recommend that.
