Installing mod_perl when other things are required, too.
I couldn't find a faq on this one. I need to also install apache with php and mod_ssl. Those two require a simple ./configure --switch to enable them. I didn't see anything for mod_perl in the INSTALL, and it seemed there were a lot of manual things to be done, which made me think I wasn't reading it correctly. What's the magic incantation? TIA

I need to also install apache with php and mod_ssl. Those two require a simple ./configure --switch to enable them. I didn't see anything for mod_perl in the INSTALL, and it seemed there were a lot of manual things to be done, which made me think I wasn't reading it correctly. What's the magic incantation? There isn't a magic incantation, and there is a lot of stuff that has to be done manually. Stas' mod_perl Guide is your friend: http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html#Installation_Scenarios_for_mod_p You won't find something describing your exaction situation here, but this should give you a leg up. mod_php should have an option that allows it to be created as a (guess what) module to be added to the web server (rather than an integrated build procedure, like what mod_perl does with DO_HTTPD = 1). I expect that you could then treat that module similarly with how you take care of the modules as described with the URL above. However, you might find that throwing all 3 of those modules into Apache will create for you a bloated beast of a server. If conserving memory is at all important to you, then you should take a look at the recent thread that went on on this list, "[RFC] Do Not Run Everything on One mod_perl Server": http://forum.swarthmore.edu/epigone/modperl/floivonmel The concepts discussed here could help you manage your memory more effectively (though you'll have to come up with the implementation yourself).

Re: Installing mod_perl when other things are required, too.
If you get the CVS version of mod_perl it has a INSTALL.simple.ssl file. If you pick up mod_ssl from Engelschall's site it comes with the same INSTALL.ssl file. Both files (which are identical) have build instructions for what you need near the bottom. However, just as a note, they aren't as clear if you want to do it DSO. It seems though, that all one need do is add USE_DSO=1 to the mod_perl stage and drop the APACI and APXS references. Then, when you get to making Apache, in addition to defining SSL_BASE and the vars for EAPI_MM and RSA_BASE, add the configure option for --enable-shared=all.

I have a similar config over here. Thanks, Shane.
