Hi there,

I am having problems loading Apple's supplied mod_perl in Panther with
the Apple supplied httpd. When running httpd, I get the "Cannot load
/usr/libexec/httpd/libperl.so into server: (reason unknown)" error
message. So I thought I would try and build my own mod_perl, however I
cannot manage to make apache 1.3.28. Anybody had any success installing
his/her own mod_perl on Panther? Any help much appreciated,

Antoine

I had no problems with a self compiled Perl 5.8.1, Apache 1.3.28 and
mod_perl 1.29.

For the build process of Apache+mod_perl I always use the attached
script based on a receipe by Randal Schwartz. Read the comments in the
script for further information.

HTH,
Florian

Thanks for the script, it helped me at least completing the
installation. However, running httpd is still an issue. Running
"apachectl start" gives me:

dyld: /opt/apache/1.3.29/sbin/httpd Undefined symbols:
_log_config_module
/opt/apache/1.3.29/sbin/apachectl: line 171: 19514 Trace/BPT trap
$HTTPD
/opt/apache/1.3.29/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

Setup is apache 1.3.29, mod_perl 1.29, perl 5.8.2, OS X 10.3.1. Thanks
for any help,

Antoine
