Title: RE: mod perl issues/ cpan won't make properly
First off...thanks for addressing my issues
Here's how I installed mod_perl/apache:
cd apache_1.3.28
./configure --enable-module=so
cd mod_perl_1.28
I don't like the look of that. Please send *exactly* what you did.
Have you got the mod_perl directory inside the apache directory?
Your directories should be somethign like this:
/dloads/apache_mod_perl/apache_1.3.28/
/dloads/apache_mod_perl/mod_perl-1.28/
perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC= /dloads/apache_mod_perl/apache_1.3.28/src
DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/httpd_perl
make make test make install
My directories look exactly like that. First I went to the apache directory and ran the configure to enable DSO. Then I went to the modperl directory and compiled mod perl with the apache with options outlined above
What is the user that's running this? Don't do the first three steps
as root, only do the 'make install' as root:
Ok. I'll recompile them as another user. How does root user affect things? (appears to be a perl issue still see below)
% perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC= /dloads/apache_mod_perl/apache_1.3.28/src \
DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/httpd_perl
% make
% make test
% su
Password:
# make install
# exit
%
That backslash on the first line is important. If you've done
everything as root and if you have the mod_perl directory inside the
apache one, then it's best to remove the directories and start again.
So using Cpan I tried to install the Bundle::Apache...which bombs out
Don't worry about it for now, you don't need it for your mod_perl Apache.
I need Apache::request and DBD::mysql rsn, but I guess that is another issue all together...allthough I though it might be a sign that something else is fowl if they won't make.
ALSO here is perl -V

Looks like you compiled this Perl yourself using gcc 2.95.3 a couple
of days ago, is that right? Did the Perl tests all pass OK?
yes...seeing as I wasn't sure whether it passed everything...and the make all test wouldn't run again; then I repeated my build/install steps
interesting. its failing a test; output: (I'm fairly sure this wasn't the result the other day):
Failed 1 test script out of 667, 99.85% okay.
### Since not all tests were successful, you may want
to run some of
### them individually and examine any diagnostic
messages they produce.
### See the INSTALL document's section on make test.
### You have a good chance to get more information by
running
### ./perl harness
### in the 't' directory since most (=80%) of the
tests succeeded.
### You may have to set your dynamic library search
path,
### LD_LIBRARY_PATH, to point to the build directory:
### setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH `pwd`; cd t; ./perl
harness
### LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH;
cd t; ./perl harness
### export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; cd t; ./perl
harness
### for csh-style shells, like tcsh; or for
traditional/modern
### Bourne-style shells, like bash, ksh, and zsh,
respectively.
