I installed and downloaded the latest version of Apache, Apache 2.0.52, on my Windows XP SP 1 machine. I tested the Apache server by loading my test Web page on my browser and running my test CGI scripts. Apache worked fine.
I also downloaded and installed the latest version of mod_perl using ActiveState's PPM. Then I edited httpd.conf and added the following line: LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so I restarted Apache and tested it again. It still worked fine. Then I downloaded and installed Embperl via PPM again, using the following command: ppm http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Embperl-1.ppd (The name "Embperl-1" stands for "Embperl 2 for mod_perl 1.x.") Then I restarted Apache and tested it again, just to be sure. Still worked fine. Next, I edited httpd.conf again and added the following lines: <IfModule mod_perl.c> PerlModule Embperl AddType text/html .epl <Files *.epl> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Embperl Options ExecCGI </Files> </IfModule> When I tried to restart Apache, it refused to start and popped up an error dialog box with the following message: "The requested operation has failed!" Next, I commented out all the lines inside <IfModule mod_perl.c>...</IfModule>, except for the PerlModule line. The entire <IfModule mod_perl.c>...</IfModule> lines now looked like this: <IfModule mod_perl.c> PerlModule Embperl # AddType text/html .epl # <Files *.epl> # SetHandler perl-script # PerlHandler Embperl # Options ExecCGI # </Files> </IfModule> When I tried to restart Apache, it failed again with the same error message. Lastly, when I commented out the "PerlModule Embperl" line, the Apache server restarted *successfully*. It seems that the line that caused the error is the "PerlModule Embperl" line. I looked at the error.log file, and I saw this entry: [Sun Oct 24 00:40:57 2004] [error] Can't load Perl module Embperl for server jojo.mydomain.com.ph:80, exiting... Next, I created a test Perl script called "tester.pl", with the following code: ------- #!/usr/bin/perl use XML::LibXML; use Embperl; use strict; use warnings; my $xml = '<root><name>Perry</name></root>'; my $parser = XML::LibXML->new; my $tree = $parser->parse_string($xml); my $root = $tree->documentElement; my $name = $root->findvalue('name'); print "My name is $name\n"; ------ I ran tester.pl on the command line. Unfortunately, it resulted into an error dialog box with the following message: ------ perl.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll. [ OK ] ------ I clicked on the OK button on the error dialog box. After that, more error messages displayed on my command-line Console: ------ Can't load 'C:/usr/site/lib/auto/Embperl/Embperl.NoApache.dll' for module Embperl: load_file:The specified procedure could not be found at C:/usr/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at tester.pl line 4 Compilation failed in require at tester.pl line 4. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at tester.pl line 4. ------ Next, I edited tester.pl and commented out the "use Embperl" line, so the entire script code looked like this: ------- #!/usr/bin/perl use XML::LibXML; # use Embperl; use strict; use warnings; my $xml = '<root><name>Perry</name></root>'; my $parser = XML::LibXML->new; my $tree = $parser->parse_string($xml); my $root = $tree->documentElement; my $name = $root->findvalue('name'); print "My name is $name\n"; ------ I ran tester.pl again, and it ran *successfully*. The output on the command line is, "My name is Perry". This indicated that there's really nothing wrong with my XML::LibXML module. Did I miss something? What seems to be the problem? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
