I think in general the problem
"mod_perl.c" is not compatible with this version of Apache.
means that mod_perl was compiled against a different set of
Apache sources than that used to build the server trying to
load the mod_perl module (assuming that the same compiler
is being used in building Perl, Apache, and mod_perl).
Just to clarify what came from where ....
- are you using a modperl-2.0 cvs snapshot from
http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/modperl-2.0/?
- are you running Apache 2.0.43, compiled from the sources
httpd-2.0.43.tar.gz from
http://httpd.apache.org/dist/httpd/?
If so, does modperl-2.0 compile against these apache 2.0 sources
successfully?
