Can't build Apache::Dispatch on Windows / Perl 5.8.0
Hi, I posted this problem the other day, deep inside a thread about something else, and didn't get any replies; maybe nobody spotted it? Does anybody have Apache::Dispatch working on Windows with Perl 5.8.0? Randy? I'm trying to build it on Windows XP (MSVC++ 6) with Perl 5.8.0 / Apache 1.3.27 / mod_perl 1.28, but I get these errors: [...] link -out:blib\arch\auto\Apache\Dispatch\Dispatch.dll -dll -nologo -node faultlib -release -libpath:C:\perl5\lib\CORE -machine:x86 Dispatch.obj C:\ perl5\lib\CORE\perl58.lib libeay32.lib oldnames.lib kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi 32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.li b netapi32.lib uuid.lib wsock32.lib mpr.lib winmm.lib version.lib odbc32.lib o dbccp32.lib msvcrt.lib -def:Dispatch.def Creating library blib\arch\auto\Apache\Dispatch\Dispatch.lib and object blib\ arch\auto\Apache\Dispatch\Dispatch.exp Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _perl_perl_merge_dir_co nfig Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _perl_cmd_perl_TAKE1 Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__ap_register_clea [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _perl_perl_cmd_cleanup Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__ap_null_cleanup Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _perl_clear_symtab Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__ap_remove_module @4 Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__ap_find_linked_m [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _perl_get_startup_pool Dispatch.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol [EMAIL PROTECTED] blib\arch\auto\Apache\Dispatch\Dispatch.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 11 unresolved externals NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x460' Stop.

Randy?
Randy posted this some time ago:
I just made one up, which you can install as
C:\ ppm install
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/Apache-Dispatch.ppd
Maybe this works for you?

I guess (and Geoffrey (who BTW transfered maintainership of Apache::Dispatch
to me..) suggested something) the problem lies within the custom configuration
directives used by Apache::Dispatch.
I'm planning to make these optional in the next release of Apache::Dispatch,
so you could either use
DispatchPrefix Bar
(which needs compiling)
or
PerlSetVar DispatchPrefix Bar
(which doesn't need compiling and should thus make installation easier)
BTW, do other people have it working under Perl 5.8.0 on other
platforms? I'm not sure if this problem is Windows-related or
5.8.0-related.
There is one FAIL reported on:
http://testers.cpan.org/show/Apache-Dispatch.html
I complied it without problem on Linux Perl 5.8.0 and 5.6.1.

I think the conditional logging recipe is pretty descriptive. see also the CustomLog directive description in the apache documentation http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/directives.html FilesMatch might also help. --Geoff Thanks! -TO --- Geoffrey Young [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tofu Optimist wrote: I would like to append a small line of log information to a file on certain apache2 requests.

$| doesn't work after upgrade
Hey everyone,
First off, thanks a lot for your help on this, and all of your work to the
open source community. And thanks in advance for the help.
The problem I'm having is that I was on RH8 with a manually built Apache 1.3
and mod_perl. I have upgraded to RH9 with Apache 2.0 and now $| no longer
seems to work properly. It buffers up some; however, it only seems to spit
out information every 3-5 minutes instead.
And example program that is failing is: (Both IE 5.50 and Mozilla 1.4 and
lynx will
act as if it's still waiting on the server until the program is complete
instead of displaying each line on time)
#!/usr/bin/perl
$|= 1;
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header,
start_html;
foreach (0 .. 4) {
print The current time is ,scalar(localtime),BR\n;
sleep 1;
}
Here's the logistical info:
perl -MCGI -e 'print $CGI::VERSION' -- 2.89
perl -v -- This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

new in Apache::Test: t/SMOKE -bug_mode
It all started when I have noticed a few core files after running t/SMOKE on modperl-2.0's top-level test suite. I couldn't figure out which test caused them. So I have decided to rewrite the smoker to provide me that information. In the future we might autoextract the backtrace as well. While working on it, I said, we also have a problem of mapping error_log errors to the tests that caused them. So I've added logic to extract only the relevant (added since the last successful test) part of error_log and access_log and print it out, in addition to the output of the client. This mode also turns the tracing level to -trace=debug, so if the test fails and there were any debug printings in the handlers they will be run as well. This should make bug reports much more useful. However it comes at a price of running much slower than the normal 'make test' would do, until Test::Harness::Straps won't provide the callbacks to be run after each test, eventually we might fold it back to 'make test'. but for now if your 'make test' fails, run 't/SMOKE -bug_report'. Of course the normal t/SMOKE run now reports core files as well, as soon as they happen. You will need to update the current modperl-2.0 cvs to get this functionality. Please report any problems that you may have noticed. So here is how the new log will look: /home/stas/apache.org/portland3 t/SMOKE -bug_mode running t/TEST in the bug report mode apache/add_configok apache/cgihandlerok apache/conftree..ok apache/constants.ok apache/cookieFAILED *** run log *** *** setting ulimit to allow core files ulimit -c unlimited; ./TEST -verbose -run 'apache/cookie.t' apache/cookie1..2 # Running under perl version 5.008001 for linux # Current time local: Thu Sep 11 18:45:28 2003 # Current time GMT: Fri Sep 12 01:45:28 2003 # Using Test.pm version 1.24 request has failed (the response code was: 500) see t/logs/error_log for more details dubious Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) DIED.

ah, right. thanks randy.
examples of this can be found in Apache::WinBitHack, for
example, the format of which should probably go in
Apache::Dispatch (as well as just about all Apache::

Here's a patch against the Apache-Dispatch Makefile.PL to
allow it to build on Win32 - I've also put up a ppm package
at http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/ (for ActivePerl
6xx).
