Using the 2.4.6 debug build which I just made (and currently working with a 5.18.1 debug perl build) I now have a working system! The KeepAliveTimeout problem has gone away, and so has my earlier problem of the api/add_config.t test crashing httpd.exe. Your build notes look fine. The crash you have sounds like the same as the call stack posted by Jan Kaluza (on Linux), but I'm not seeing that myself right now. The function your crash is in was new in the httpd24 branch, and it's one of things that I had to sort out when merging the threading branch into it. The threading branch changes the way that perl interpreters are managed in mod_perl, and I've tried to apply those changes to the functions since added in the httpd24 branch, but I've quite possibly not got it all right. What happens if you try the httpd24 branch? That worked (bar a few test failures) for Jan on Linux, but for me on Windows it crashed httpd.exe in api/add_config.t, with an error relating to interpreters and memory pools -- which is why I went down the road of merging the threading branch with the httpd24 branch, in the hope that it would fix my problem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@perl.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@perl.apache.org
