[...]i tested MP 1.99_13 with Perl 5.8.3 and got the same result - none of the tests succeeded / no access to httpd (still empty t/logs/access_log).
OK, let's try the debug-by-proxy technique ;)
once you have build mod_perl 1.99_13 and ready to run 'make test' please run:
killall httpd t/TEST -start
[...]waiting 120 seconds for server to start: ok (waited 2 secs) server localhost:8529 started
server localhost:8549 listening (TestDirective::perlloadmodule6) [warning] root mode: restoring the original files ownership
most likely unrelated, but i need to check this one - it shouldn't restore the ownership that early.
[warning] setting ulimit to allow core files ulimit -c unlimited; /usr/bin/perl /tmp/install/apache/mod_perl-1.99_13/t/TEST -ping [warning] server localhost:8529 running (pid=4258, version=Apache/2.0.48)
Right, the ping doesn't really ping, just checks whether the process is alive and kicking.
now run:
t/STOP
did you mean t/TEST -stop ? (because i found no "STOP")
yes, sorry.
now run:
APACHE_TEST_DEBUG_LWP=1 t/TEST -v t/modules/cgi.t
#lwp request: #GET http://localhost:8529/index.html HTTP/1.0 #User-Agent: libwww-perl/5.76 # #server response: #500 (Internal Server Error) Can't connect to localhost:8529 (connect: Connection refused) #Content-Length: 66 #Content-Type: text/plain #Client-Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2004 09:03:48 GMT #Client-Warning: Internal response #X-Content-Length-Note: added by Apache::TestRequest
So we know that you run as root and that Apache refuses connections. Actually it seems like your system refuses them, since you get nothing logged in access_log, is that right? It seems that LWP comes up with its own 500, and it doesn't really come from the server.
I dont't know if this helps:
When i start the httpd manually by "/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -f /tmp/install/apache/mod_perl-1.99_13/t/conf/httpd.conf"
and test, whether i can connect to one of the listen-ports (e.g. "netcat localhost 8529 -vv") => conection refused
I replaced all "localhost:<port>" directives in http.conf by 127.0.0.1:<port> => at least i get a connection to the ports now.
You mean it does work ('make test' passes) if you s/localhost/127.0.0.1/g?
Do you have the entry:
127.0.0.1 localhost
in your /etc/hosts? If not please add one and try again.
If it still doesn't work, do you have any different results if you unpack/build/test under your own user and not root?
