I am a nee hand at this, and when I failed to get anywhere googling
(but rather, found indications that upgrading Apache by hand ran the
risk of leaving users without useable mod_perl due to unpublished Apple
customizations), I worried I might be chasing my tail until available
source changes.
So: Does mod_perl compile on MacOS X/Darwin? (either 10.1.x or
10.2.x? I would like both!)
When I told cpan to 'install mod_perl' it began nicely:
install mod_perl
Running install for module mod_perl
Running make for D/DO/DOUGM/mod_perl-1.27.tar.gz
Checksum for
/Volumes/Storage/cpan/sources/authors/id/D/DO/DOUGM/mod_perl-
1.27.tar.gz ok
mod_perl-1.27[...]
but quickly produced an error message:
Please tell me where I can find your apache src
[] /Users/chris/Documents/Downloads/Source/apache_1.3.26/src

I then got:

Running make install

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm interested in getting
mod_perl compiling with the options I like without having to pray to
Software Update for an update that doesn't hoze the things I've
installed for my current project. Help?
Thanks,
Chris
