RE: ActivePerl mod_perl ppd available
This is great news. I suppose ActivePerl's mod_perl ppd is compatible with its build 522? regards, Ji-Haw, Foo Network Engineer (AP) -Original Message- From: Randy Kobes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2000 11:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ActivePerl mod_perl ppd available Hi, A ppd for mod_perl, suitable for use with ActivePerls based on Perl-5.6.0, is now available. Installation is as ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/mod_perl.ppd or in ftp://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/pub/ppmpackages/. A post-install script will subsequently be run which will download and install the required ApacheModulePerl.dll; this should be placed in your Apache modules directory. If for some reason the script fails, this dll can be obtained from http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/. Also available in this directory is a sample Apache httpd.conf suitable to test mod_perl on Win32. This build, using VC++ 6, is based on the current cvs mod_perl version and on apache_1.3.12. If you want to compile mod_perl on your own with ActivePerl, the cvs version is known to build cleanly and pass all the tests. Also available at the above location are ppds for a few Apache-* packages; more will be added, as wants arise. Embperl is not included yet, as there's some issues that need to be sorted out first. As soon as this occurs a ppd will be made available. Although mod_perl is reasonably well tested on Win32 in general, this specific ppm version has not undergone extensive testing, and so should be considered experimental. Please report any mod_perl related bugs to the list. If you have any specific problems with installing these ppds, or would like to suggest other ppds to include, please let me know. best regards, randy kobes
ActivePerl 617 and GD.ppd
I tried to install gd (http://www.activestate.com/packages) on build 617, but it keeps telling me: Error installing package 'GD.ppd': Could not locate a PPM binary of 'GD.ppd' for this platform. This same package works well for build 522 (which is why I am still using build 522). I would like to try upgrade to 617, but this problem is bugging me. Any suggestions? Btw, I had to download the gd.ppd as well as the corresponding zips/ and x86/ files into my own machine because of firewall issues. regards, Ji-Haw, Foo Network Engineer (AP) -Original Message- From: Gerald Richter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2000 2:35 PM To: Foo, Ji Haw; 'Randy Kobes'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: ActivePerl mod_perl ppd available This is great news.

Did exactly that. Which is why I was surprised that build 522 works well but not 617.

Say you put the ppd file in C:/temp, then you will need to put the corresponding .tar.gz file in C:/temp/x86 for ppm to work right.

The specific locations that the precompiled binary is there to help the novice users like me get the the server up and running quickly.

I know you can install the XML::DOM into Activestate through PPM - not sure about GD -Original Message- From: jihawfoo [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 11, 2000 10:30 PM To: modperl Cc: jihawfoo Subject:Anyone tried mod_perl in Windows? Hi all, I'm one of the newbies into Perl who's still entrenched in Windows (NT). As part of my new job portfolio, I am required to write Perl scripts to support our system. I have to set up a web interface with Perl scripts to dynamically generate web pages. I know of a binary distribution for Windows Apache with mod_perl, but I am hesitant to do the installation because I read that ActiveWare's Perl is not supported (which Perl compiler is used instead?) and I need the following modules: -GD (with JPEG support) -XML::DOM Can any gurus out there please advise me if the binary dist. of windows apache + mod_perl will enable me to install these modules? And if so, can it be installed without using a VC++ compiler (I do not have one)?
