IMHO it's usually more trouble than it's worth. I always build static if I can. Also I like a file 'makepl_arg.mod_perl' in the mod_perl source directory to supply the configuration. Sample attached. Then you just have to say perl Makefile.PL in the mod_perl directory and everything is set up for you. Then you can repeat it whenever you like: just remove the source directories, extract the sources fresh, copy the makepl_args.mod_perl file, and issue the perl Makefile.PL command again. > How does root user affect things? People have had problems with permissions getting a little screwy, and it's safest to do builds as non-root in case there's an accident. > I need Apache::request and DBD::mysql rsn Get Apache and mod_perl running first.
