'ellow, I have been trying to compile mod_perl1.99_13 but have found what I believe to be a bug in the Makefile.PL.
I am using Debian woody with the Apache2 from backports.org. I am using the prefork (Apache1-style) MPM because I read in the mod_perl2 documentation that if you have Perl 5.6.1 this is the only MPM that can be used. I tried to compile mod_perl2 but despite my having removed the worker MPM package and installed the prefork one in its place, it still thinks I am using worker and therefore refuses to compile. To me this looks like a bug in the Makefile.PL. Here is the output I get: oblique:/usr/src/mod_perl2/mod_perl-1.99_13# perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/bin/apxs2 Reading Makefile.PL args from @ARGV MP_APXS = /usr/bin/apxs2 Configuring Apache/2.0.48 mod_perl/1.99_13 Perl/v5.6.1 [ error] Using Perl 5.6.1 w/o ithreads and 'worker' mpm httpd. [ error] Failed requirements: [ error] - Perl 5.8 or higher - Perl built with ithreads (build perl with -Dusethreads) But this dpkg listing shows clearly that I have the prefork MPM package installed: un apache2 <none> (no description available) ii apache2-common 2.0.48-6.backpor Next generation, scalable, extendable web server un apache2-dev <none> (no description available) un apache2-doc <none> (no description available) un apache2-modules <none> (no description available) un apache2-mpm-perc <none> (no description available) ii apache2-mpm-pref 2.0.48-6.backpor Traditional model for Apache2 un apache2-mpm-thre <none> (no description available) pn apache2-mpm-work <none> (no description available) ii apache2-prefork- 2.0.48-6.backpor Development headers for apache2 pn apache2-threaded <none> (no description available) (I have no apache[1] packages installed.) Any help/info would be greatly appreciated -- I am at a loss as to what I am doing wrong here... bye just now, -- Matthew T.
