Thanks people. It turned out to be an Expat problem. As advised, we compiled Apache without EXPAT - and hunky dory - it works.

It's hard to tell given the provided information, but this *may* be a modperl problem. See http://axkit.org/faq.xml, entry "I install AxKit and Apache segfaults when it starts" (even if you don't have AxKit) to check whether that is the cause of the problem or not. Failing that, you have the perl-xml list which you can subscribe to at ActiveState's site. -- Robin Berjon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- for hire: http://robin.berjon.com/ I don't suffer from insanity.
