Failed badly to install for me. First of all it won't install via the
CPAN shell as root because the test harness tries to deliver files
from what becomes a root-owned directory, and it won't do that.

The test suite was lifted directly from mod_perl. Are you able to able to test/install mod_perl using the same approach?

Joe, I thought you've reverted to use the old test suite?

Matt, Apache::Test may not work when run under root, because Apache won't let you start the server as 'User root' so it tries to use 'nobody' or something else as the username the server runs under, which of course has no perms to access files created by root and hence the problem.

I suppose the solution is to chown all the autogenerated files to that chosen user and then the issue will be resolved. Meanwhile please try to run the test suite as non-root.
