ok - ldd /opt/ora9/product/9.2/Apache/Apache/bin/httpd shows: ~~~ libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x40034000) libdb.so.2 => /usr/lib/libdb.so.2 (0x40041000) libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40050000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x40065000) libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x40087000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x400b4000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x42000000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) ~~~ I'm completely at loss. How does this tell if the Parser module is compatible with version of Perl in Apache ?
Well you didn't tell us what is your mod_perl build. Apparently it's not static but DSO. Find your libperl.so mod_perl module (check your httpd.conf for the location) and run ldd on it (in mod_perl 1.0 the modperl shared library is confusing called the same way as the perl shared library)
For one, how do I know correct version of Perl in Apache ? Under Apache, there are directories ./perl/lib/5.00503 and ./perl/lib/perl5/5.8.0. So what's the version of Perl here - 5.00503 or 5.8.0 ??
The module which is being used here -HTML-Parser-, its README mentions version of Perl required as 5.005 or higher. So I guess the Apache is compatible .
Yes, but different perl versions are not binary compatible.
I even downloaded older versions of the perl module, but they did not even contain the 'Parser.so' , so I guess I'm using the correct version.
That's the problem with downloding different versions of binary builds. When you build things by yourself you know which perl you have used and you don't encounter.
You should be able to figure out which is the right perl by following my suggestion above.
