I am trying to compile mod_perl-2.0.2 with httpd-2.0.55. These are the
compilation options I used for mod_perl:
# perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs
When finished compiling and installing, this is the error message I get
when attempting to start httpd:
Syntax error on line 235 of /path/to/etc/apache/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /path/to/modules/mod_perl.so into server:
/path/to/modules/mod_perl.so: undefined symbol: perl_get_cv
Of course, line 235 of httpd.conf loads the mod_perl module:
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
When I run ldd on mod_perl.so, I get the following dynamic libraries:
# ldd /path/to/modules/mod_perl.so
libperl.so =>
/path/to/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux/CORE/libperl.so (0x002e8000)
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x00e89000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00413000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0x00888000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x00654000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00f68000)
libutil.so.1 => /lib/libutil.so.1 (0x00111000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00a1e000)
And then, when I run nm on libperl.so, I get the following symbol:
# nm /path/to/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux/CORE/libperl.so \
| grep -i perl_get_cv
0001cbe4 T Perl_get_cv
So, there seems to be a discrepancy between the expected case in the
perl library. I noticed other people have encountered the same problem
on this mailing list and the proposed solution was to add the
EVERYTHING=1 argument when configuring mod_perl. I have tried adding
this argument but to no avail. Can anyone propose another solution?
