Getting mod_perl-1.27 Apache-2.0.39
I've tried every which way and still can't get mod_perl to compile. I'm running Perl v5.6.1 built for i586-linux. I downloaded Apache 2.0.39 and extracted it into /usr/local where it created httpd-2.0.39. I have Apache 2.0.39 built with SSL and DSO, and it's in /usr/local/Apache-2.0.39. It's working. I'm willing to recompile it again but it seems to be a lost cause :-)) In one piece of documentation it says that the Makefile.PL is looking for the *.h files in the Apache source tree. Trying to get mod_perl in I type: perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=/usr/local/httpd-2.0.39/include DO_HTTPD=1 \ USE_APACI=1 PREP_HTTPD=1 EVERYTHING=1 I'm asked ...where I can find you apache src I type in /usr/local/httpd-2.0.39/include and get: Apache Version 1.3.0 required, aborting.. I've also tried: perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=/usr/local/httpd-2.0.39 DO_HTTPD=1 \ USE_APACI=1 PREP_HTTPD=1 EVERYTHING=1 and got the same error message. Ok, so lets try building mod_perl as a DSO outside the Apache Source Tree via APXS just as the documentation says. perl Makefile.PL USE_APXS=1 WITH APXS=/usr/local/Apache-2.0.39/bin \ EVERYTHING=1 Nope. Get: mod_perl.c:1735: request for member `val' in something not a structure or union mod_perl.c:1735: request for member `key' in something not a structure or union mod_perl.c:1735: request for member `key' in something not a structure or union mod_perl.c:1735: request for member `key' in something not a structure or union make[1]: *** [mod_perl.lo] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/mod_perl-1.27/apaci' make: *** [apxs_libperl] Error 2 linux:/usr/local/mod_perl-1.27 # I've also tried: perl Makefile.PL USE_APXS=1 WITH APXS=/usr/local/Apache-2.0.39/bin \ EVERYTHING=1 SSL_BASE=/usr/local/ssl Same error message. I'm not sure what else to do anymore. Anyone have any ideas? I have to head to the Bosnia AO tommorrow and won't be back until Friday, 19 July. If anyone has any ideas could you please post here and to my email. Thanks! Eric

Randy, Thank you. When I saw 'in development' next to mod_perl-1.99_04 I thought it was just an update to 1.27. I'm too much of a newbie to be getting into develepmental stuff :-)) Thanks again. Worked like a charm! On Sunday 14 July 2002 18:46, Randy Kobes wrote: On Sun, 14 Jul 2002, eric wrote: I've tried every which way and still can't get mod_perl to compile.

Typically that will be something like ... mod_info.o, mod_rewrite.o, mod_so.o libproxy.a now go to the mod perl directory modperl-1.26 or 1.27 Run: perl Makefile.PL \ APACHE_SRC=/usr/src/apache/src \ DO_HTTPD=1 \ USE_APACI=1 \ PREP_HTTPD=1 \ EVERYTHING=1 \ make make test # broken make install This will build modperl and copy the appropriate modules to the apache src directories. Answer YES to the questions asked by script go back to apache directory and run ./configure --with-layout=Apache \ --activate-module=src/modules/perl/libperl.a make make install all done :-) Michael
