-------------8<---------- Start Bug Report ------------8<---------- 1. Problem Description: I am trying to get mod_perl 2 working by following the instructions in "Getting your feet wet with mod perl." I can configure, make, make test and make install without any problems and then add LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so to http.conf and start Apache 2 successfully. However, I encounter a problem when I try to add PerlModule Apache2. If I do this, Apache quits unexpectedly and in the error log I see: ---- snip ---- [Mon Nov 29 20:47:04 2004] [error] Can't locate Apache2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/share/perl /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 . /usr/local/apache/ /usr/local/apache/lib/perl) at (eval 2) line 3.\n [Mon Nov 29 20:47:04 2004] [error] Can't load Perl module Apache2 for server 192.168.1.3:0, exiting... ---- snip ---- Since /usr/local/apache/lib/perl is in @INC and the modules needed seem to be in blib/lib, I tried cp -r blib/lib/* /usr/local/apache/lib/perl and restarted Apache. This gets me past "PerlModule Apache2" and Apache is up and serving pages. However, when I move onto the next step and add registry scripts with Alias /perl/ /usr/local/apache/lib/perl <Location /perl/> SetHandler perl-script PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry PerlOptions +ParseHeaders Options +ExecCGI </Location> Apache reports an internal server error when I try to load the test page, and the error log shows: ---- snip ---- [Mon Nov 29 21:06:18 2004] [error] [client 192.168.1.2] failed to resolve handler `ModPerl::Registry': Can't locate loadable object for module Apache::Response in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/share/perl /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 . /usr/local/apache/ /usr/local/apache/lib/perl) at /usr/local/apache/lib/perl/Apache/XSLoader.pm line 30\nCompilation failed in require at /usr/local/apache/lib/perl/ModPerl/RegistryCooker.pm line 29.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/apache/lib/perl/ModPerl/RegistryCooker.pm line 29.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 4) line 3.\n\t...propagated at /usr/share/perl/5.6.1/base.pm line 62.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/apache/lib/perl/ModPerl/Registry.pm line 25.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 3) line 3.\n ---- snip ---- There actually is a file named /usr/local/apache/lib/perl/Apache/Response.pm, so I am not sure what this error message means. Any hints or suggestions? I installed mod_perl 2.0 with the following commands: perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs make make test make install Any ideas about where I might have gone wrong? 2.
