Hi, Thanks a lot it worked !!! In the process i needed some tweaks, maybe they can help a little more to others. The perlbrew install command was failing signaling download error, it was the inexistente folder, so i creted it: mkdir -p ~/perl5/perlbrew/dists/ Then it worked fine: perlbrew install -Accflags=-fPIC -v --noman --notest -j9 --as perl-5.10.1-apache-1.3 5.10.1 perlbrew use perl-5.10.1-apache-1.3
sudo apt install cpanminus cpanm -q --notest LWP::UserAgent I left all in a folder called src, and make some test runs, so i automate deleting perl and apache folders and uncompress again. cd src/ rm -rf mod_perl-1.31 apache_1.3.42 tar xzvf apache_1.3.42.tar.gz tar xzvf mod_perl-1.31.tar.gz Patch aplying automation too: cd mod_perl-1.31/ patch -p1 < ../mod_perl-1.32.patch cd .. cd apache_1.3.42/ patch -p1 < ../apache-getline.patch patch -p1 < ../gcc-inline-fix.patch Finally, in the environment created i used "cpan" clasic command. "cpanm" was not installing modules in the right path. Dependencies: For avoid question on follow dependencies before invoking cpan invoke from shell: export PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 Then, newer module versions where failing the tests all the time, so i installed them with force, i.e. for DBI module: force install DBI Thanks again, Hans On feb. 24 2019, at 8:07 pm, Michael Schout <msch...@gkg.net> wrote: > On 2/22/19 10:54 AM, Matthias Schmitt wrote: > > I doubt that you will be able to compile mod_perl 1.x with newer compilers > > and operating systems. > > > Hold my beer :). > $ cat /etc/lsb-release > DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu > DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04 > DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic > DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS" > > $ which httpd > /home/mschout/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.10.1-apache-1.3/bin/httpd > > $ httpd -v > Server version: Apache/1.3.41 (Unix) > Server built: Feb 24 2019 16:43:18 > > And, it passes the Apache::AuthCookie test suite (provided you install > Apache::Test and Test::More@0.94).
