This page (http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html) says this:
----------------------------
PREP_HTTPD=1 just means default 'n' to the latter prompt, meaning: Do not build (make) httpd in the Apache source tree. But it will still ask you about Apache's source location even if you have used the APACHE_SRC parameter. Providing the APACHE_SRC parameter will just eliminate the need for perl Makefile.PL to make a guess.
To avoid the two prompts: <------ This is what I am trying to do.
Configure mod_perl with ../apache_1.3.xx/src ? Shall I build httpd in ../apache_1.3.xx/src for you?
and avoid building httpd, use:
NO_HTTPD=1 ----------------------------
Here is a short transcript showing the options I am using to configure mod_perl:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ls ../apache_1.3.29/src
Apache.dep ApacheCore.mak Configure* buildmark.c os/
Apache.dsp ApacheCoreOS2.def INSTALL helpers/ regex/
Apache.dsw ApacheNW.mcp.gz InstallBin.dsp include/ support/
Apache.mak BUILD.NOTES Makefile.tmpl lib/
ApacheCore.def CHANGES PORTING main/
ApacheCore.dep Configuration README makefile.win
ApacheCore.dsp Configuration.tmpl ap/ modules/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.29/src NO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 PREP_HTTPD=1 EVERYTHING=1
Will configure via APACI
Configure mod_perl with ../apache_1.3.29/src ? [y]
My question is: "Why am I being asked about configuring with the source?" As you can see, my apache source directory is specified properly. I have also used the "NO_HTTPD=1" option as the instructions say.
I have a long script that builds apache with a number of other modules. I want to be able to run this script without having to wait for this prompt halfway through. What am I doing wrong? -- Wes Barris E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
