> mod_so.c since you already have mod_so in your httpd, why not just compile mod_perl as a DSO? the main reasons why DSO was not the method of choice for 1.3 are pretty much gone now. in fact, things are quite the opposite - mod_perl 2.0 was developed using DSO from the start, leaving static compilation as a much later add-on. personally, I've never even tried to compile mp2 statically, but there are those that have and say that it works.
so, with an existing httpd with mod_so compiled in compiling mod_perl is pretty simple: $ perl Makefile.PL MP_USE_DSO=1 MP_APXS=/path/to/httpd/bin/apxs $ make && make test $ sudo make install then add the LoadModule directive to your httpd.conf, as shown after the Makefile.PL stage. HTH --Geoff
