I've run into problems adding virtual hosts to a machine where I've already got mod_perl working, but I'm having some trouble pinning it down, because apache just seems to die silently without giving me any hints in the error_log. It definitely does have something to do with an interaction with mod_perl though, because if I comment out "AddModule mod_perl.c" I can at least get apache to restart (though I guess whether the vhosts are working is another question). Does anyone out there have some sucessful examples of httpd.conf files for mod_perl+vhost sites that they can point me at? (Sorry if the answer to this one is out there somewhere, but I've been looking and having found it.) Here's my entire httpd.conf file, if anyone wants see it (I'm running a RedHat 6.1 linux system, using perl 5.05, mod_perl 1.21, and apache 1.3.9): ServerType standalone ServerRoot "/etc/httpd" LockFile /var/lock/httpd.lock PidFile /var/run/httpd.pid ScoreBoardFile /var/run/httpd.scoreboard Timeout 300 KeepAlive On MaxKeepAliveRequests 100 KeepAliveTimeout 15 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 20 StartServers 8 MaxClients 150 MaxRequestsPerChild 100 LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so LoadModule env_module modules/mod_env.so LoadModule config_log_module modules/mod_log_config.so LoadModule agent_log_module modules/mod_log_agent.so LoadModule referer_log_module modules/mod_log_referer.so LoadModule mime_module modules/mod_mime.so LoadModule negotiation_module modules/mod_negotiation.so LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so LoadModule info_module modules/mod_info.so LoadModule includes_module modules/mod_include.so LoadModule autoindex_module modules/mod_autoindex.so LoadModule dir_module modules/mod_dir.so LoadModule cgi_module modules/mod_cgi.so LoadModule asis_module modules/mod_asis.so LoadModule imap_module modules/mod_imap.so LoadModule action_module modules/mod_actions.so LoadModule userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.so LoadModule alias_module modules/mod_alias.so LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so LoadModule access_module modules/mod_access.so LoadModule auth_module modules/mod_auth.so LoadModule anon_auth_module modules/mod_auth_anon.so LoadModule db_auth_module modules/mod_auth_db.so LoadModule digest_module modules/mod_digest.so LoadModule proxy_module modules/libproxy.so LoadModule expires_module modules/mod_expires.so LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so LoadModule usertrack_module modules/mod_usertrack.so LoadModule setenvif_module modules/mod_setenvif.so LoadModule perl_module modules/libperl.so ClearModuleList AddModule mod_vhost_alias.c AddModule mod_env.c AddModule mod_log_config.c AddModule mod_log_agent.c AddModule mod_log_referer.c AddModule mod_mime.c AddModule mod_negotiation.c AddModule mod_status.c AddModule mod_info.c AddModule mod_include.c AddModule mod_autoindex.c AddModule mod_dir.c AddModule mod_cgi.c AddModule mod_asis.c AddModule mod_imap.c AddModule mod_actions.c AddModule mod_userdir.c AddModule mod_alias.c AddModule mod_rewrite.c AddModule mod_access.c AddModule mod_auth.c AddModule mod_auth_anon.c AddModule mod_auth_db.c AddModule mod_digest.c AddModule mod_proxy.c AddModule mod_expires.c AddModule mod_headers.c AddModule mod_usertrack.c AddModule mod_so.c AddModule mod_setenvif.c AddModule mod_perl.c Port 80 User nobody Group nobody # ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] ServerName www.polymuse.com DocumentRoot "/home/httpd/html" <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory "/home/httpd/html"> Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> UserDir public_html DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi AccessFileName .htaccess <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Order allow,deny Deny from all </Files> UseCanonicalName On TypesConfig /etc/mime.types DefaultType text/plain <IfModule mod_mime_magic.c> MIMEMagicFile share/magic </IfModule> HostnameLookups Off ### Now also below inside the polymuse vhost... not good? ### Doesn't matter?
