Re: Apache::ASP Mod_perl

2015-07-19 Thread Tsirkin Evgeny
I have created a branch of apache::asp to work on Plack/PSGI
It worked nicely and is in repository .
I just didn't have a time to document it but i will be back to it once i do.
And i an actually looking for testers .

And ASP have it pluses ,like page based navigation (and not MVC) if that's
what you want.

Anyway it seems like Cris is trying to run VB using this module and it will
not work,

Cris,
this is a module for running perl in ASP like fashion .VB will not work

 I’ve never seen that one.  It means Apache::ASP couldn’t compile an *.asp
 or *.inc file, but I couldn’t say why.

 What I can tell you is that Apache::ASP really hasn’t been updated
 significantly since the days when mod_perl was the standard way to deploy
 Perl web apps, which hasn’t been true for quite some time now.  The Perl
 world has moved on to Plack/PSGI and FastCGI instead, and mod_perl has been
 left to bit-rot.  It’s gotten to the point that RHEL 7 and its derivatives
 no longer even include mod_perl.

 While all of this can be worked around, I can’t recommend going to the
 trouble if you don’t have a legacy code base to get working again, and not
 even then in most cases.

 We ported our web app to Dancer.  It was quite a bit of work, but we’re
 very happy with the new framework.

 I wrote a longish review of Dancer as compared to Apache::ASP here on this
 list about a year back: http://goo.gl/kDQB5b
