Re: All tests fail with Apache/2.0.43 (Unix) mod_perl/1.99_07-dev

Hi.
I have resolved my problems, but I am not sure if this highlights a possible error in the make scripts.

I realised I was root, but installing from the directory "/home/richard"
If I did the following as root (in /home/richard):
tar -xzf mod_perlxxxx.tar.gz
cd mod_perl...
perl ./Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache2 MP_INST_APACHE2=1
make
make test

all tests fail.
By removing the mod_perlxxx directoy, and redoing all as a normal user (richard), this worked fine.

Hi -

I went through test failures (but not all) recently.

With Stas's help, here's what I did:

Downloaded the CVS source - Stas made a chage that

  ficed my problems. See the 2.0 docs for how-to.

If you did this under root, chown -R user:group mod_perl-2.0

  where user:group is a normal user (does not have to be
  the httpd.conf User/Group) and mod_perl-2.0 is the directory
  in which lies the CVS source.

login as that user.

run your perl Makefile.PL ..., make and make test.

if all is well (I hope), and you are installing a system-wide

  mod_perl, login back in as root _before_ you make install.

Good luck.

Aloha => Beau.

Hi.
  I have just installed and compiled perl 5.6.1, compiled Apache
2.0.43     (with ssl support), and tried to get mod_perl 1.99_07-dev to
work.

mod_perl compiles, but when I run "make test" all tests fail.

Below is the first bit of output from the t/logs/error_log

I have looked on the newsgroups and google for answers but I am now lost.

Can anybody help to shed some more light on this ?
More info can be made available if people need it.

More than likely permissions problems on your mod_perl directory --
particularly if you're building mod_perl as root (since Apache runs as
nobody
in that case).
