This is exactly what mine looks like. I don't have the: > APACI_ARGS=--enable-module=rewrite > APACI_ARGS=--enable-module=so
since I doun't want to run modperl as DSO. Most literature I'm reading points against it...so for now I'm just trying to have modperl run static.
enabling mod_so doesn't necessarily build mod_perl via DSO - the arguments (or lackthereof) to mod_perl's build determine that. whether you want DSO or not for other things is up to you.
I didn't relaize that do_httpd=1 was building apache...
yes.
Invalid command '=pod', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
=pod is a mod_perl directive - the error means that mod_perl isn't enabled properly. do httpd -l on the (uninstalled) binary in your apache build directory and see what shows up.
given your troubles, I'd rm -rf both mod_perl and apache, re-untar, and start from scratch, this time letting mod_perl build apache for you. be sure to check the output of make, making sure it completes successfully before trying to test the installation.
