Subject: Re: Compiling mod_perl as a DSO?
Is it possible to compile/install mod_perl as a DSO, on an existing
pre-compiled copy of apache (with mod_so enabled), yet? If so,
how? I couldnt find it in the docs... and I'm tired of having to
statically compile the module in... so any help would be appreciated.
I read on the list at one time that the DSO verson has a memory leak.
Don't know if this is still true or not. The static version apparently
did not have that problem. If someone knows the answer to this I'd like
to know myself as the DSO version is considerably easier to put together
with other modules.
Plus my studies this weekend indicate that other
conflicting issues come up...
Better to go hybrid - static mod_perl, and
DSO whatever you are able to DSO...

Re: Compiling mod_perl as a DSO?
I'm not sure why people are struggling with this so much this week. Here's
what to do in a nutshell:
download and untar apache
download and untar modperl - at the same directory level.
cd modperl
perl Makefile.PL \
EVERYTHING=1 \
APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/apache \
ADD_MODULE=log_referer,rewrite,proxy,so,vhost_alias,mime_magic,expires \
DYNAMIC=1 USE_APACI=1
make
su
make install
To build DSO libraries just make sure you now use apxs from /usr/apache/bin.

Re: Compiling mod_perl as a DSO?
Thanks for responding :)
Question:
ADD_MODULE=log_referer,rewrite,proxy,so,vhost_alias,mime_magic,expires
Is this required? Why can't I just use APACI_ARGS to get 'all' ?

While I don't build apache very often, I don't see what configure option
that corresponds to. You'd have to have:
APACI_ARGS='--enable-module="log_referer" --enable-module="rewrite"
--enable-module="proxy" ...'
for each and every module. There's no configure option "all" that I can
see. Am I missing something?
Yes. :) Not to worry, it's hidden in the section just before
List of Available Modules in the INSTALL file.
Re -
Use the --enable-module=NAME and --disable-module=NAME options
to enable or disable a particular already distributed module from
the Apache src/Configuration.tmpl file. The correct module names
(no `mod_' prefix!) and defaults (yes=enabled, no=disabled) can be
seen when running `./configure --help'. There are two special
NAME variants: `all' for enabling or disabling all modules and
`most' for enabling or disabling only these modules which are
useable on all platforms (currently this is `all' minus the
modules `auth_db', `log_agent', `log_referer', `example',
`so' and `mmap_static'). For a compact overview of available
modules see the following list (remove the `mod_' prefix
to get the NAME).

Exactly - right now, there's no easy way to compile a static apache + mod_perl + php3. Heck, I cant even get apache + mod_perl to work (I need to do --enable-module=so during apache configuration, but the modperl setup/build re-configures apache and leaves it out). I'd be happy with being able to do apache + static mod_perl + DSO'ed PHP3, if anybody can point out how to do apache + static mod_perl + "--enable-module=so". Thanks.
