I'm not sure what the best way to go about this is, but maybe the following might help in deciding ... I think the problem arises when Apache-Test either doesn't find the right httpd.conf corresponding to the found httpd (as might happen, for example, when httpd is a symlink to the real one), or it finds and parses a bogus one (this happened to me a couple of times when the installed httpd.conf wasn't edited to include the minimal LoadModule directives, and I forgot to check). So it's not necessarily a problem with using an incorrect httpd (although that may still happen), but rather incorrect or missing information from httpd.conf is being used. If the above is on the right track, one possibility is to do the following (in cases where possible LoadModule directives are needed by Apache-Test): - die if an httpd.conf isn't found in a directory conf/ in an expected relative location to httpd (or perhaps add an option allowing a user to specify where httpd.conf is, if it's in a different relative to httpd). - test the configuration, and if an "Invalid Command ..." error is generated, suggest to the user to either supply the right httpd.conf, or check the validity of the existing one. -- best regards, randy

Every time you test 'is_Prefork' you miss the logic you are testing relative to other MPM's which share the same or similar characteristics. Avoiding threads? That's one query test. Fork or created process? That's another. Although Apache may only distribute 2-8 different MPMs, third parties are already out there creating their own custom MPMs. If we can find some sane way of collecting and advertising the associated features, that would be much more robust than looking for an MPM name.

We already have this functionality in Apache::Build in modperl-2.0. Perhaps it needs to be abstracted so it can be used from Apache::Test without having mod_perl enabled.
