Good day or whatever it is at your location,
1. Problem description
couple of days ago I have compiled and (to the extent of my competency)
tested Apache httpd 2.0.49 on powerpc-aix-5.1.0.0 platform (IBM RS6000
7009 C10 model). Now trying to compile mod_perl 1.99_14. Everything
seems to compile and build fine, but when I'm doing 'gmake test', seems
httpd won't start properly:
following is the screen log:
$ t/TEST -verbose compat/apache_util.t modperl/pnotes.t
[warning] setting ulimit to allow core files
ulimit -c unlimited; /usr/local/bin/perl /home/bozy/src/mod_perl-1.99_14/t/TEST -verbose 'compat/apache_util.t' 'modperl/pnotes.t'

using Apache/2.0.49 (prefork MPM)

waiting 120 seconds for server to start: not ok
[ error] giving up after 121 secs. If you think that your system
is slow or overloaded try again with a longer timeout value.
by setting the environment variable APACHE_TEST_STARTUP_TIMEOUT
to a high value (e.g. 420) and repeat the last command.
[ error] server failed to start! (please examine t/logs/error_log)

I am sure there is enough time to start httpd, I tried with 400 and 600
seconds delay wait. httpd seems to exit silently. there is enough ulimit
to produce core file. No core file being produced.
t/logs/error_log shows no signs of any serious errors:

!!!NOTICE!!!: Apache has PHP 5.0 as a DSO module - maybe this could give
a clue (but NOT loading PHP does not help). PHP and MySQL interface runs
just fine with Apache - tested on several rather simple applications.

I am not a programmer myself, so I did not investigate further, just
tried to find similar cases on the Net, but did not find a close match
yet.
