I'm using apache 1.3.9 , mod_fastcgi 2.2.2 and mod_perl 1.21 Originally my build of these three together worked, however when i went to rebuild a few months later i recieved a lot of "unrecognized format specifier" errors. A search of the internet showed that i wasn't the only one but i couldn't find a solution mentioned. Puzzled i tried to track down the problem. Using clean source i could build apache/mod_perl/mod_fastcgi on my RedHat 5.2 workstation but never on my RedHat 5.2 server. The only tinkering i'd done with the server was to use SFIO to rebuild perl and get mod_fastcgi working the first time i used fastcgi. By removing the SFIO .h files, the apache/mod_perl compile would get further and the 'unrecognized format specifier' errors disappeared, but naturally other pieces of code refused to compile complaining about the missing sfio files. A quick check of the mod_fast site noted that it no longer needed SFIO, so i removed it and replaced my rebuilt sfio-perl binaries with clean ones (from a redhat RPM) and was able to rebuild apache with mod_perl + mod_fastcgi ( + php) All of my mod_perl stuff works and so too does my fastcgi. Hope that helps some one. I wasn't able to find any answers to the problem while searching the net. regards,
