Arsh, I found the prob with APACI parameter, it was actually USE_APACI -- so it was my mistake, i replaced it with USE_APACI=1 and then make file was built with no problems, however, make is failing with 1 errror, can't figure whats that...
let me know if you know a fix to this Asim On 4/20/07, Asim Zfafir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Arsh, Thanks for the detailed email. I have familiarity with Perl and have coded in perl before, its just that I am trying to get hands on it again. Basically, i have my apache web server running fine, i was able to read some basic mod-perl script too, but it appeared as if i didn't had mod-perl properly configured. first i was confused, if apachetcl is reading mod-perl config parameters from /etc/httpd/75_modperl.conf (i just recalled this path, pardon if thats not correct) or i need to define the mod_perl module in httpd.conf itself. I was trying to use Apache::Vmonitor feature as I mentioned in my previous email. anyways, I figured now that i didn;t had the source for apache 2.2.x but anyways, i went and download the src for apache.1.3.x (just so that i can compile mod_perl) and then I got mod_perl src from apache's website. i put untar'd & unziped the files in /home/stas/src - and then i ran the following command... perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=/home/stas/src/apache_1.3.37/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 when i did that i got a warning... and this was it.. ---> ************* WARNING ************* Your Perl is configured to link against libgdbm, but libgdbm.so was not found.
