Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Right. Except there is no 2.2.5; 2.2.5 is not released on the Apache web site. Those who want this version can get it at ApacheLounge. Of course 2.2.4 essentially worked, while 2.2.7 will give the modperl'ers on Windows something they have BEGGED for forever, the chance to see parsing errors at startup from their httpd.conf file(!!!) Yes! It's been egging me for the longest blistering time!

Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Regarding the best Apache for Windows, I have a problem running Apache under windows and I think this thread might help me. I tried Apache 2.2.4 with and without SSL support, and Apache 2.2.6 from apachelounge, but they still don't work. I read that Apache 2.2.6 from apachelounge should work with mod_perl. Isn't this true? They all install correctly, and I can even start the server with the default httpd.conf. It gave an error just a single time with the default httpd.conf. If I install mod_perl, the percentage of the times when Apache doesn't want to start and give errors is much bigger, but still most of the times it starts and works. If I install Catalyst and use a certain Catalyst app (that doesn't have errors), Apache can start very rarely. When I try to start the server, it appears an error message "Visual Studio just in time debugger" that doesn't give any helpful information. Most of the times in the error log is not printed absolutely anything, and sometimes it prints that the main thread couldn't start the child thread and that the thread was closed, or sometimes it prints that the main thread received a kill signal and that it closes. I had VS6 and VS.net 2005 installed, but I've uninstalled them both. I have no program that starts with "Microsoft" in the Add-Remove programs list, but that Visual Studio just in time debugger appears. Do you have any idea what could have happened? I think it should be a problem of Apache for Windows, or a Windows issue, or a hardware issue, but I don't know how to test it. Thank you for any idea.

The one-off build at AL of 2.2.6 isn't 2.2.6; 2.2.5 represents an aborted attempted at a release, none of the above represents what will be in 2.2.7 for you to move forward. In light of this; You are best off, needing this today, to see the earlier posts on this list of which combinations of binaries for 2.2.4 were known to work. Bill

Use the standard-issue one from theoryx5. Install libapreq2 from theoryx5 also. Apache 2.2.6 is not recommended for Win32 iirc. Don't touch it. Of course, your problems may be compounded (but I'm not sure) by the other components you are using (Catalyst)? For me, I'm just living off HTML::Template, DBI, and some other libraries. You may want to be more explicit on the errors you're encountering, and at which points did the install break.

Header info
Hey, I've written a basic authentication,authorization handler based on ldap groups. Now the problem is that I need the found ldap groups in my PHP applications. I've try'd adding the groups to the header but it failed. Here is what goes wrong. I Created the following .htaccess AuthName "Besite LDAP Authentication" AuthType Basic require valid-user PerlSetVar application ilsa PerlAuthenHandler Apache::Ldap::ldap_auth PerlAuthzHandler Apache::Ldap::ldap_authz SetHandler modperl PerlResponseHandler Apache::Ldap::ldap_response I try'd to sent some basic message using headers in the responseHandler. But I constantly see a blank page. Here is my responseHandler. package Apache::Ldap::ldap_response; use strict; use warnings; use Apache2::URI(); use Apache2::Access; use Apache2::RequestRec(); use Apache2::RequestUtil; use Apache2::Log; use Apache2::RequestIO; use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(OK); sub handler { my $r = shift; $r->log_error("Begin Response Handler"); $r->content_type('text/html'); $r->headers_out->set(usergroup => "ADMIN"); $r->rflush; $r->log_error("Headers sent"); return Apache2::Const::OK; } 1; But the only things I see is a blank page. and not my PHP page with the header info. but when I don't use the handler I can see the page with the header info but without the extra usergoup field. Can somebody help? Is there another way to get this info in my PHP application?

Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Here it is what it happened: I've installed: Apache/2.2.4 (Win32), Server built: Jan 9 2007 23:17:20 perl, v5.8.8 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread built 822 latest mod_perl from TheoryX After installing them, I started the web server and it worked fine and I could access the success page. I have tried stopping and starting it for more times with success. Then I've created a default Catalyst app named "Testing", using: catalyst Testing I was able to access the "Testing" application using its internal web server, so it is working. Then I've created a virtual host for calling that Catalyst application. Here is the content of that virtualhost: ServerName www.brk.ro ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] DocumentRoot e:/web/Testare/root ErrorLog e:/web/Testare/logs/error.txt CustomLog e:/web/Testare/logs/access.txt common PerlRequire "e:/web/Testare/script/preload.pl" Options Indexes Order allow,deny Allow from all SetHandler perl-script PerlResponseHandler Testare Of course, I created the directory "logs" under the "Testing" app directory, and I also created the program preload.pl that just "use" the "Testing" module. And I tried starting the server, but it appeared an error window "Visual Studio just in time debugger" and it also printed the following errors in the command prompt: net start apache2 The Apache2 service is starting. The Apache2 service could not be started. A system error has occurred. System error 1067 has occurred. The process terminated unexpectedly. In the error log it appeared the following errors: ...

Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Ok, but the strange thing is that the error appears even though I've uninstalled both VS6 and VS.net 2005. A few days ago I had VS6 and VS.net installed, and that error provided some debug information (that I couldn't understand). So I went in VS.net and I set it to not show the debug info because I thought that that window might not appear anymore. After that moment, the "Just in time debugger" error window use to appear but with a different message, telling that: """ Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger An unhandled win32 exception occurred in httpd.exe [2996]. Just-In-Time debugging this exception failed with the following error: No installed debugger has Just-In-Time debugging enabled.

Apache 2.2.6 and mod_perl 2.0.3
Hi, I believe that mod_perl 2.0.3 is not compatible with Apache 2.2.6.

Any one able to get mod_perl.so to work with Apache 2.2.6 Thanks, Tracy
Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Because you used theoryx5's perl/modperl/libapreq2 built for VC8, along with the AL build of 2.2.4 ALSO built for VC8, everything is dandy. Equally if you used ActiveState perl (built VC6) + a VC6 build of modperl and libapreq2 with the ASF distribution of httpd 2.2.4, everything is dandy. Is there a VC6 build of modperl + libapreq2? I've been following the links on the ASF site, so it's always been theoryx5. To date I've been using ActivePerl all the way, so it's still a combo of VC6 Perl + VC8 modperl. But so far so good... Mix and match at your own risk.
Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
I haven't looked into this, but the fact that AL's mod_perl (compiled, presumably, with VC8) doesn't work with, again presumably, ActivePerl (compiled with VC6) may be another example of the dangers of mixing components compiled with VC6 and VC8. Point taken.
Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Sorry man, I'm not too familiar with Catalyst, so I can't pinpoint the problem. But if your tests are good with a clean install of Apache2 + mp2, you may want to check compiler used to build Catalyst (see Randy's email on the VC used for ActivePerl, Apache, and modperl). I suppose Catalyst is not a pure-perl implementation?

Re: Best version of Apache for Win32 deployment
Catalyst uses very many CPAN modules, and I am sure that not all of them are pure perl. I've compiled Catalyst using VS6, so if ActivePerl is compiled with the same compiler, and Apache and mod_perl the same, I don't think it should be a problem. I have also tried using an older ppm binary of Catalyst but with the same results. But I think I might have a problem with the hardware, because sometimes right after booting the system the computer doesn't start, but just keeps restarting and nothing appears on the display, and I need to power it off, wait a little then power it up again in order to make it boot. That problem might be the same that causes Apache not work and I think the issue might be the motherboard. So I will try to change it, because it is under the warranty, and I hope after that Apache will also work.
