To inform you.
We at http://www.apachelounge.com made a binary available which works
with mod-perl and mod-perl etc.
How did the perl-framework regression tests look; and which patch did you
happen to use? Or is this the cobbled-together 2.2.6 + smattering of 2.2.5
sources?
re: "which patch" - There are a few notes and a pointer to the patches
at: http://www.apachelounge.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8903#8903
It is 2.2.6/APR 1.2.11 with changes. Nothing from 2.2.5 or APR 1.2.9.
I didn't run the perl-framework regression tests (I'm not familiar with
them).
I'd personally encourage anyone who didn't need piped logs to hold back at
2.2.4 till there's a 2.2.7 ready to fly.
Definitely! While this set of patches works, and therefore may yield
some clues about the mod_perl problem - it remains unexplained *why* it
works, so it cannot be considered trustworthy IMHO.
The FastCGI part is well understood (needs INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE).
The mod_perl part (mpm_winnt) is still a bit mysterious.
A guess - mod_perl failed because of some interaction between
stdin/stdout and the Windows console devices CONIN$/CONOUT$.
