I've update configure-apache.pl to match. See:

http://savage.net.au/index.html

First timers:
configure-apache.pl simply patches a few Perl and Apache config files
when you install these packages on a drive other than C:. The entire
installation process is documented, including the environment, some
security issues, installing and starting Apache as a service, and
some MS Windows-specific DNS issues.

 I cannot get this to start properly under WinNT.

 Symptoms:
 1)
 shellApache.exe -n Apache -k install
 2 lines of output appear:

 Installing the Apache service
 The Apache service has been installed successfully.

 and then a Windows error box, containing:
 The instruction at 0x... referenced memory at 0x The memory
 could not be 'read'.
 Nevertheless, Apache is installed, and can be uninstalled.
[ ... ]

Does it start OK, and give the server signature, if you just do
   C:\Apache Apache.exe
I think the problem might be in Embperl - try commenting out the
Embperl directives towards the bottom of httpd.conf and see if
that helps in starting the service. Neverthless, as you say,
things seem to work OK even with these errors on start-up.

Yes, the problem is Embperl. Commenting it out (lines 1084 to 1096 of
httpd.conf) fixed things. Phew.

Thanx for your help.

httpd.conf) fixed things. Phew.

I have also seen this problem with Embperl when installing Apache service.
It's not special to this binary version.

Since Apache gets always installed correctly, I never had taken the time to
track it down.

I cannot get this to start properly under WinNT.

I've tried installing in C:\ and D:\.

I've updated (but not uploaded) my configure-apache.pl to patch these
3 files:
D:\perl\lib\Config.pm
D:\perl\lib\CPAN\Config.pm
D:\apache\conf\httpd.conf
so the install on D:\ should be correct.

Symptoms:
1)
shellApache.exe -n Apache -k install
2 lines of output appear:

Installing the Apache service
The Apache service has been installed successfully.

and then a Windows error box, containing:
The instruction at 0x... referenced memory at 0x The memory
could not be 'read'.
Nevertheless, Apache is installed, and can be uninstalled.
2)
If I try
shellapache -k start
without the install, and try a -k stop in another DOS window, I get
the same error box (in the -k stop window) with _exactly_ the same 2
memory addresses.
Nevertheless, Apache stops.
3) If I try
shellapache -n Apache -k install
and ignore the error, and then try:
shellapache -n Apache -k start
I get 2 lines of output:

The Apache service is starting.
The Apache service has started.

with about 6 seconds between the msgs, then straight after the 2nd
msg, the error box with _exactly_ the same 2 memory addresses.
Nevertheless, Apache can be stopped, and it does serve pages.
4) access.log contains the expected.
error.log contains nothing.
ssl_engine_log contains this per start:

Re: [win32] new perl/apache/mod_perl binary

2002-07-07 Thread Gerald Richter

Hi Randy,

I've placed an updated perl-5.6.1/Apache-1.3.26/mod_perl-1.27
 Win32 binary package, perl-win32-bin-0.8.exe (a self-extracting
 archive), in ftp://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/pub/other/.

Is this package binary compatible with ActiveState, i.e. can I do a ppm
install to get additional packages?

Gerald

Hi Gerald,
   Yes, it's based on the sources of build 633 of ActiveState.
I've also included the ppm utility for adding packages; some
adjustments in Perl/site/lib/ppm.xml may be needed if Perl is
installed to other than C:/Perl/.
   Competely off-topic, but I would like to be able to make up
an msi package of this, so different components could be
installed to desired locations, and a script then run to adjust
accordingly the various config files. I got an add-on to Visual
Studio to make msi packages, but as near as I can tell, you have
to add files one at a time, which is a bit tedious ... Obviously
there's a better way - if anyone's familiar with this, could you
drop me a mine, privately? Thanks.

best regards,
randy
