Sadly, I started from scratch the first time. >Thousands of people have simply followed the instructions at: >http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/getwet.html#Installing_mod_perl_in_Three_Steps Those are the same steps I have been following. I reiterate: Following the instructions in INSTALL-apaci (essentially identical to the web page you supplied above) I ran perl Makefile.PL APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache \ APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.26/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 make make test "The latter did many things" (meaning "printed many bytes of make output, cc stuff, and cp commands to the screen...") and eventually complained Syntax error on line 3 of /ad4/ENV/common/src/WWW/mod_perl-1.27/t/conf/httpd.conf: Invalid command '=pod', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration So, obviously, I needed to do a make clean in the apache tree... OK. I did that. In fact, I downloaded a newer version of Apache. I also added the configure options I used to build Apache last time. Then I tried again: perl Makefile.PL APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache \ APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.27/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 \ APACI_ARGS='--server-uid=www \ --server-gid=www \ --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl \ --with-layout=Apache \ --enable-module=most \ --enable-shared=max \ --enable-module=auth_db \ --enable-module=mmap_static \ --activate-module=src/modules/perl/libperl.a \ --enable-shared=perl \ --disable-module=auth_dbm \ --disable-rule=EXPAT \ ' Now I get (at the end of the make test) ../apache_1.3.27/src/httpd: not found This would seem to indicate that the "1 2 3" step process doesn't build Apache (as it claims: "If your goal is just to build and install Apache 1.3 with mod_perl out of their source trees and have no special interests in further adjusting or enhancing Apache... the following... builds Apache statically with mod_perl, installs Apache under </path/to/install/of/apache/> and mod_perl into the <site_lib> hierarchy of your existing Perl installation. All in one step.") Ideas appreciated... In the meantime, I will add a "4th step" and configure Apache "by hand". -- - Vicki Vicki Brown ZZZ Journeyman Sourceror: P.O.
