That's your problem. Red Hat shipped with an old development version of mod_perl2 and never updated to the release version (I assume they have by now, but you have an older version of RH that wasn't updated). The development version won't work with anything written for mod_perl1 or a release version of mod_perl2 (ie. pretty much anything not provided by that release of RH). Amongst other things, there was a major change in the mod_perl2 module names in the midst of the development, which is the reason you're having problems with "can't locate..." for the mod_perl modules. > I can't believe I'm the only one trying to install Mason under > RedHat 4 Update 4. There's probably something in the list archives about this question. There certainly is in the mod_perl list archives. Generally people have removed the RH provided package and installed from source. > Can anyone offer any advice?

You need to either: - downgrade to apache1/mod_perl1 - upgrade to a newer RH release that supports a real mod_perl2 release. - remove the mod_perl1.99 package and install mod_perl2 from source. - find another provider of a mod_perl2 package for RH4 and upgrade to that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
