Hi,

I was trying to build Apache 1.3.27 + mod_perl 1.27 from
the mod_perl tree. Dir structure as follows:

/usr/local/apache2-19
/use/local/apache2-19/build
/use/local/apache2-19/build/apache_1.3.27
/use/local/apache2-19/build/mod_perl-1.27

So, following the suggestion from

http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html#APACI_ARGS

that one can pass *any* arguments to the Apache ./configure through the
APACI_ARGS directive, I placed the following lines into

And it's correct. I'm using --enable-module inside APACI_ARGS all the time at the *command* line, as the section suggests.

/use/local/apache2-19/build/makepl_args.mod_perl

APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.27/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 \
APACI_ARGS='--prefix=/usr/local/apache2-19, --enable-module=dir'

This generated some errors during the configure process

cd /use/local/apache2-19/build/mod_perl-1.27/
make clean
perl Makefile.pl

...
'--ENABLE-MODULE' is not a known MakeMaker parameter name.
...

I then discovered ADD_MODULE parameter and used that instead of using the Apache's --enable-module parameter.

Correct me I am wrong, but I think the guide's section on using the
APACI_ARGS parameter should say something about not being able to
use '--enable-module' there, and have a pointer to the ADD_MODULE parameter.

However there must be a glitch in the way a special makepl_args.mod_perl is processed. If someone can try to resolve a problem and post a patch, that would be very helpful.
