Greetings. This is relative to several problems on Win32/NTSP6/AP build 630. Short executive report: nothing seems to work :-)
-------------8<---------- Start Bug Report ------------8<---------- 1. Problem Description: I have tried these with both the released mod_perl *AND* the latest CVS snapshot (no difference in either). The report was generated with the snapshot, but symptoms are identical for the released version. While building: if MP_DEBUG is set to 1: Complaints of Filter.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _MP_debug_level ..\..\..\blib\arch/Apache2\auto\Apache\Filter\Filter.dll : \ fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals If MP_DEBUG is defined on Win32. While Testing: D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -Iblib\arch/Apache2 -Iblib\lib/Apache2 t/TEST -clean D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -Iblib\arch/Apache2 -Iblib\lib/Apache2 t/TEST D:\Apache2/bin/Apache.exe -d D:/builds/modperl-2.0/t \ -f D:/builds/modperl-2.0/t/conf/httpd.conf -DAPACHE2 -DPERL_USEITHREADS using Apache/2.0.35 (winnt MPM) waiting for server to start: ok (waited 1 secs) server localhost:8529 started server localhost:8530 listening (TestDirective::perlmodule) server localhost:8531 listening (TestDirective::perlrequire) server localhost:8532 listening (TestProtocol::echo) server localhost:8533 listening (TestProtocol::echo_filter) server localhost:8534 listening (TestProtocol::eliza) server localhost:8535 listening (TestFilter::input_msg) *** : cannot build c-modules without apxs the server is down, giving up after 61 secs !!! : failed to start server! (please examine D:t\logs\error_log) NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe' : return code '0x1' Stop. (apache keeps running afterwards) Trying to actually use mod_perl in compatibility mode nothing appears to work (see detailed configuration below). I tested scripts/application that run fine under Apache 1, mod_perl 1.26, Apache::Registry or straight CGI. Scripts using CGI.pm return either: o) an empty body (Apache::Registry) o) a perl error - [Fri Apr 12 14:05:33 2002] [error] PerlRun: `Can't call method "args" on an undefined value at D:/Perl/lib/CGI.pm line 433.' (Apache::PerlRun) The offending line contains a reference to Apache->request->args. o) a stack overflow that crashes apache (complex app, under either registry or perlrun) (but since I cannot compile a debug version - see above - I can only see what appears to be a deep recursion somewhere in mod_perl.) Not using CGI I can only get an empty body viz.: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></HEAD> <BODY><XMP></XMP></BODY></HTML> This happens on elementary, "Hello world" type of scripts under either PerRun or Registry.
