Hi,

I think I've committed all my patches [1] to httpd24 branch. It builds OK for me and I think it's now time for more people to build it and report your problems with this branch.

To compile it, I just checkout the httpd24 and run:

/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/bin/apxs MP_APR_CONFIG=/usr/bin/apr-1-config

make

If you want to run tests, you have to at first create ./t/run directory (to create this automatically, I would have to patch Apache-Test which I can't since it's separate component and lives outside my httpd24 branch if I'm right)

Then you can just run 'make test'.

The only failing test is t/directive/perlloadmodule3.t. I don't know perl enough to parse that code which merges configurations in this test yet.

If the build ends up with error message that it can't link against -laprutil-1, we will have to fix workaroud (and little hack) I've done in commit 1448043 [2].

Hi,

I've been granted commit access to mod_perl (Thanks to Torsten), so I
want to inform you about my intentions with httpd24 branch.

1. Merge changes from trunk to httpd24 branch.
2. Review my patches from http://jkaluza.fedorapeople.org/mod_perl/ and
commit them to httpd24 branch.
3. Run make source_scan on my machine and commit the results to httpd24
branch.

Those three steps should allow people to just ./configure and make
mod_perl with httpd24 sources. They will also make httpd24 branch
*httpd24 only* and personally I think this is the way to go, because of
following reasons:

1. Build system (make source_scan) is not good enough to run properly on
all systems and I'm not going to rewrite it.
2. httpd 2.4 auth API changed in a way where it works very differently
than the one in 2.2. I will still try to put 2.4 code to proper #ifdefs,
but it would be really great to just have separate version for 2.4.

When all this is done, I will commit my second patchset which adds
httpd-2.4 features to mod_perl (mainly new auth API) and fixes lot of
mod_perl tests.

Please feel free to monitor my work in httpd24 branch and comment it on
list if you find some problem there. It's my first experience with
mod_perl and I really don't know everything about it.

Regards,
Jan Kaluza
