Thanks. Regards, Ed Loehr have you tried disabling expat compiltation into apache? as detailed here: http://axkit.org/faq.xml under I install AxKit and Apache segfaults when it starts.

Thanks. Just to ensure that Apache was compiled without expat, does grep -i xml /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd match? Also, are all required modules, especially XS-based ones like libapreq, compiled against the same mod_perl/apache sources as AxKit was? best regards, randy kobes

AxKit configuration question
Hi All,
I'm attempting to install AxKit 1.4 (and 10 or so other pre-requisite
modules) on my modperl/modssl server, and I'm trying to get the
ultra-basic AxKit manpage example to work ('perldoc AxKit').
The first sign of trouble has arisen: httpd silently exits immediately
after startup once I add the specified AxKit configuration to my Apache
config files, and I have not been able to find any logging whatsoever
yet. I can see it is successfully loading AxKit.pm, and producing
seemingly all of the normal Apache log startup messages I usually see.
It's just that when I go to the ps table, it is not there. Does anyone
have a clue to offer before I recompile with debugging on?
My server's status line is
Apache/1.3.20 (Unix) mod_perl/1.25 mod_ssl/2.8.4 OpenSSL/0.9.6b
(it once had AxKit 1.4 in it, but I haven't been able to reproduce
that...)
Here's my httpd.conf file:
##
IfModule mod_perl.c
Include conf/perl.conf
/IfModule
##
Here's part of conf/perl.conf:
###
PerlModule AxKit
Location /ax
# Install AxKit main parts
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler AxKit
# Setup style type mappings
AxAddStyleMap text/xsl Apache::AxKit::Language::Sablot
AxAddStyleMap application/x-xpathscript \
Apache::AxKit::Language::XPathScript
# Optionally set a hard coded cache directory
# make sure this is writable by nobody
AxCacheDir /opt/axkit/cachedir
# turn on debugging (1 - 10)
AxDebugLevel 10
AxStackTrace On
AxLogDeclines On
/Location
##
If I delete this section of perl.conf, the server starts and runs fine,
albeit without the desired AxKit effect!!
The only thing I have not investigated are a bunch of log messages re
Apache::Status as follows ...
Subroutine menu_item redefined at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/Apache/Status.pm line 46.
and a bunch for mod_perl.pm ...
Subroutine Apache::Table::TIEHASH redefined at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/mod_perl.pm line 65535.
Thanks in advance for any clues/pointers.
