Re: Unthreaded Perl and Apache mod_perl
Does anyone have a good step by step how to source for recompiling a debian package? Take a look at "apt-src" and "apt-build" packages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Unthreaded Perl and Apache mod_perl
Debian user: I am running Debian GNU/Linux i386 31r0a "Stable" (Sarge) and am using it for Linux/ Apache/ MySQL/ Perl development. The following Apt packages are installed: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686 apache-perl (Apache 1.3.33/mod_perl 1.29) mysql-server (MySQL 4.0) perl (5.8.4-8) I have read that for Perl/CGI and mod_perl scripts, it is best to run Perl/mod_perl non-threaded, for both performance and compatibility reasons (not all packages are thread-safe?). For testing, I sometimes run Perl/CGI scripts from the command line. It looks like my system Perl does have threading enabled: $ /usr/bin/perl -V ... usethreads=define use5005threads=undef useithreads=define usemultiplicity=define Is there a way to disable threading or to start Perl single-threaded? perldoc perlrun doesn't reveal any clues. I do not know how to determine if the Perl inside apache-perl is compiled with or without multi-threading. Is there a way to determine this? Is there any way to control it?
