I found a minor installation bug in both modperl v1.99-5. (The same bug also seems to be in the latest modperl-2.0 CVS tree.)
The bug occurs when you try to install modperl 2 with the latest version of Apache (2.0.42). For whatever reason, the Apache folks changed the format of the macros in include/ap_release.h between 2.0.40 and 2.0.42. AP_SERVER_BASEREVISION is now: #define AP_SERVER_BASEREVISION AP_SERVER_MINORREVISION "." AP_SERVER_PATCHLEVEL instead of simply: #define AP_SERVER_BASEREVISION "2.0.42" This breaks the httpd_version method in Apache/Build.pm. I got around it by simply changing the AP_SERVER_BASEREVISION in include/ap_release.h to the latter format. The "correct" solution depends on how stable the macro format will be for future versions of Apache. If it's going to stay the way it is, httpd_version needs to be modified to search for other macros as an alternative method for computing the version. -Eugene -- +=== Eugene Eric Kim ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===== http://www.eekim.com/ ===+ | "Writer's block is a fancy term made up by whiners so they | +===== can have an excuse to drink alcohol." --Steve Martin ===========+
