Thanks for that, Stas. I'll see if I can get my hands on 5.6.1 since the
current release has too many dependencies to resolve with RH7.1 without the
possibility of something getting Broken :)

Doug says that we want 2.0 to compile under perl 5.6.0, even though you won't get all the features (e.g. perlio, on which other features depend) and you should remember that perl version is very buggy.

In any case, if you try the current cvs you should be able to compile 2.0 with 5.6.0 again.

Hi all,

Trying to compile mod_perl 2.0 for my RH7.1/Apache 2.0.39 server and it
falls over with this error:

apr_perlio.c: In function `apr_perlio_apr_file_to_glob':
apr_perlio.c:573: `IoTYPE_WRONLY' undeclared (first use in this

function)

apr_perlio.c:573: for each function it appears in.)

When I ran 'perl Makefile.PL' etc with the correct location for

my apache

setup the only thing it complained about was the fact I was

using Perl 5.6.0

and it recommended 5.6.1 or above. Before I trawl the dependencies tree
trying to install a later version has anyone seen that problem

before and do

I really need to upgrade my perl installation?

As somebody else has pointed out you won't have a problem if you run
Perl 5.6.1 or higher. Let me check with other developers if 2.0 will
eventually require 5.6.1 which is much better thatn 5.6.0. Or whether we
should backport things to 5.6.0 as well. The reason is that macros
IoTYPE_WRONLY and IoTYPE_RDONLY were introduced in 5.6.1.
