Hi,
First some basic info:
-Apache 2.0.44 -Solaris 9 sparc -perl 5.8.0 -mod_perl-1.99_08 (from mod_perl-2.0-current.tar.gz) -complete newbie to mod_perl
I had some problems to compile mod_perl: make test would fail, after reading the mailing list archives, I found a few things related to my problem, so I added a few lines to:
t/hooks/TestHooks/init.pm and t/hooks/TestHooks/trans.pm
(I can post a diff if it's of interest)
Certainly. But please follow the bug reporting guidelines: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/help/help.html#Reporting_Problems
This fixed some problems, but not all of them. I decided to ignore further failures of make test, and did a make install, it failed (?), however I did get a mod_perl.so under $apacheroot/modules, so I added the LoadModule line to apache, and restarted it. It seems to work, however I can't load my module (using PerlHandler mymodule), because it can't find Apache::Constants (which I use in my module).
I have tried to install this (Apache::Constants) by using the shell of
CPAN, but it refuses to install for apache2, I saw some references to
Apache2 somewhere in the archives, but couldn't find it either (using CPAN shell).
Does "make install" add some more stuff besides mod_perl.so? My perl is in a read only path, so this might be the problem, but I'm not sure...
Which are the specific dependencies for mod_perl 2?
It's all very well documented. Please spend some time at: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/index.html
in particular: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/compat/compat.html
How stable is mod_perl 2?
Getting better every day. There are still problems here and there, but they get resolved when reported. See the todo directory and the STATUS file in the mod_perl source for things that are still missing.
