Getting mod_perl to work under Win2k

2002-05-21 Thread Michael Lawrie 

Hello,
I've spent several days working on this problem, reading various FAQ and
whatnot and finally decided to try this email list, hoping that I might find
an answer here.

I'm running Win2KPro and Apache 1.3.23
I downloaded mod_perl2.ppd, and installed the *.so file in the default modules
directory for my web server.

I edited the httpd.conf file to include the following line:
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

When I attempt to start httpd I get this message:
Syntax Error on line 193 of c:/apache/apache/conf/httpd.conf
Can not load c:/apache/apache/modules/mod_perl.so into server: (126) The
specified module could not be found.

Is there something I've missed?

Thanks!
Michael

Looks like your PATH env variable needs to be modified to include
your Perl executable.  Make sure you are getting the correct the
with a perl -V from the command prompt.

mod_perl 2 doesn't work with Apache 1.x.x
Apache 2.x doesn't work with mod_perl 1.xx

You'll need to get the mod_perl.ppd, like:
  ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/mod_perl.ppd

It should run an auto-install script at the end which puts mod_perl.so in 
the right location.

To use mod_perl-2, you'll need to get Apache2 (which is now
at 2.0.36) - in general you can't mix Apache-1 and Apache-2
modules. See http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/win32_apache2.html
for a discussion on how to get mod_perl-2 set up and initially
configured on Win32.
