Which Unix? I've heard about the troubles with sockets on AIX (w/ mod_perl
1)
Solaris 8.
Have you read:
Yes. However, unless I'm confused, that is a bit different in that it is an example of using APR to work with the socket established by Apache to communicate with the client. I need to establish my own UDP conversation with a "third-party" service from where I'll retrieve data which I'll use to compose my response to the client. If I can use APR to do that, great, but I couldn't find docs/samples/tests that create/open/close APR sockets.
Ah, then yes, you should be able to use Perl sockets. I doubt that the problem has to do anything with mod_perl, though. YOu said that recv fails, but you dind't specify what was the error message.
Also I remember Philippe was working on mod_udp or something like that, so he certainly will know if there are any special Apache issues to deal with. Philippe?
