This 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. -- Cheers Ron Savage, [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 10/07/2002 http://savage.net.au/index.html

>Yes, the problem is Embperl. Commenting it out (lines 1084 to 1096 of >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.

This Randy 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) shell>Apache.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 shell>apache -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 shell>apache -n Apache -k install and ignore the error, and then try: shell>apache -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: -><8- [07/Jul/2002 22:47:15 04016] [info] Server: Apache/1.3.26, Interface: mod_ssl/2.8.10, Library: OpenSSL/0.9.6d [07/Jul/2002 22:47:15 04016] [warn] You are using mod_ssl under Win32.

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

[win32] new perl/apache/mod_perl binary
Hi, 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/. This includes, amongst other things, Embperl, Apache::ASP, and HTML::Mason, with some simple examples configured in Apache. It also includes mod_ssl/openssl. Unfortunately, these packages aren't getting any smaller in size ... I've removed from the site past versions of these packages, due to the security issues with earlier versions of Apache contained in them. Please get in touch with me if you need an earlier version for some reason. This will most likely be the last binary package based on perl-5.6/apache-1.3 - the next one, after perl-5.8 is official, will be based on perl-5.8 and apache-2/mod_perl-2 (note that these involve binary incompatablities with lower versions). If you want a preview of this, grab perl-5.8-win32-bin.tar.gz from the above ftp directory - I'll be updating this later this week from cvs. Please let me know if you have any problems with installation of either of these. best regards, randy kobes
