OK, I've installed perl & apache 2 fine. Then I try to configure mod_perl 1.99_08, using the command: # perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache2 & it seems to work fine except for this warning:
Reading Makefile.PL args from @ARGV MP_AP_PREFIX = /usr/local/apache2 ************* WARNING *************
mod_perl is unlikely to link with your libperl, suggestions: *) Rebuild Perl with Configure -Accflags=+Z ...
I suppose, it's because in some cases it works so Doug made it a warning, rather than an assertion. Or may be so mod_perl build can be tested without fixing perl ;)
************* WARNING ************* Configuring Apache/2.0.43 mod_perl/1.99_08 Perl/v5.8.0
But it doesn't stop, it just keeps going & acts all happy. Then when I run make i get:
/usr/bin/ld: DP relative code in file /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/PA-RISC1.1/auto/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.a (DynaLoader.o) - shared library must be position independent. Use +z or +Z to recompile. *** Error exit code 1
Stop. *** Error exit code 1
Stop. #
I've tried recompiling perl numerous times, but i'm basically a total newb. I'm a college student with no experience on HPUX & very little unix experience to begin with, but somehow I ended up responsible for this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
well, since your problem now is compiling perl with -Accflags=+Z enabled, it's no longer a mod_perl question and should be taken elsewhere.
However, this may help:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/install/install.html#Configuring_and_Installing_Prerequisites
just add the -Accflags=+Z, to the ./Configure command as described in that document.
If you still have problems you should try one of the resources listed here: http://perl.apache.org/docs/offsite/other.html#Perl
