libapache-mod-perl install missing httpd.conf

2002-05-19 Thread Lars D. Noodén
libapache-mod-perl seems to forget to add the following important line to /etc/apache/httpd.conf: LoadModule perl_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_perl.so To double check, I just now did "apt-get remove libapache-mod-perl" and "apt-get install libapache-mod-perl". This did not add it or pr

Great. But if gcc, cpp, and binutils were already in the base install, why not also libc6-dev? I'm still learning my way around apt-get and debian, so these are all good tips. -Lars On 19 May 2002, Bastien Nocera wrote: > On Sun, 2002-05-19 at 17:43, Lars D. Noodén wrote: &g

Thanks, Jeroen, It turns out that I was missing libc6-devel. I checked config.log and then searched packages.debian.org for the missing file. -Lars On Sun, 19 May 2002, jtv wrote: > On Sun, May 19, 2002 at 03:37:57PM +0200, Lars D. Noodén wrote: > > What should I look for to re

Should the command apropos work 'out of the box'? I've recently done a fresh install of woody and get no hits when searching with apropos, even though the relevant man pages exist: # apropos ls ls: nothing appropriate. # apropos apt-get apt-get: nothing appropria

Thanks. Replacing 'stable' with 'testing' in sources.list allows me to install Apache. -Lars On Tue, 14 May 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > On Tue, May 14, 2002 at 09:15:22AM +0200, Lars D. Noodén wrote: > > Yes, apt-get is trying to install potato.

Re: Apache?

Yes, apt-get is trying to install potato. The man page for sources.list implies that I could just swap stable with woody. However, I've tried that without success. Should I point to different ftp mirrors? How did you get yours to work? -Lars 1) error message: # apt-get install apache

Hi, I used apt-get to install Apache and Apache::DBI, but get errors when I try to use it. For example, perl -e 'use Apache::DBI;' gives: Can't locate object method "module" via package "Apache" (perhaps you forgot to load "Apache"?) at /usr/share/perl5/Apache/DBI.pm li

This is a good trick but does not always work. It's a good argument for having full mirrors. I realize we can't impose too heavy requirements, but it would be very useful to be able to identify sites which are incomplete and sites which carry the full mirror of that particular release. -Lars

Sure, a link from the install notes to the CD FAQ would be good. A short paragraph with the highlights plus a link would be even better. Keep in mind that (at least 3 years ago) your average web page has 20 links. So the likelihood that a new person will 'click their way forth' to the right pag

Floppyless installs should have more focus in the install guide. Many (most?) new macintoshes do not have a floppy drive. At my site we have about 50 macintoshes (G3/G4) but I've only seen two where a 3.5" drive has been added. A few have zip disks. -Lars On Sat, 20 Apr 2002, Chris Tillm
