I actually have a question along these lines
I'm new to mod_perl myself, and I've just installed a new setup with
Apache2
and the mod_perl2 beta.
That's all working well and my old cgi-bin type stuff works under
mod_perl
great.
Now I'm trying to get more into the mod_perl specific stuff and when
I: use
Apache::DBI I'm getting a can't find Apache.pm
To use Apache::DBI do I need the old mod_perl 1 also installed running
some
kind of dual mode? Or is that not even an option since I'm running
Apache2. I'm learning quick so if this is covered someplace just give
me a
quick pointer.
As Apache::DBI hasn't been tested with mod_perl 2.0 yet, you will need to:
1) make sure you are using the prefork MPM for Apache (as Stas said,
Apache::DBI can only work with that one)
2) You will probably need to run mod_perl 2.0 in compat mode: put
PerlModule Apache::compat
but first you need:
PerlModule Apache2
or 'use Apache2' in startup.pl. see:
http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#Accessing_the_mod_perl_2_0_Modules
in your httpd.conf, before loading other modules (like Apache::DBI).
You will probably also want to see the 2.0 docs at
http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/
start here:
http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/2.0/user/intro/start_fast.html
but since it seems that you've it installed already, proceed here:
http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#Enabling_mod_perl
though I haven't tried, you should be able to use Apache::DBI with the
compat layer and preforked mpm/
