Hey just as an FYI... I've got mod_perl and apache 1.3.14 and PHP 4.04 (I
think or maybe 4.03pl1) installed with no problems on my redhat 7 box. Now,
it's my devel box so I don't know if there are any "major" problems with it.
:) It does double duty as my devel box and my personal router (got my cable
modem hooked up on it and then route my internal boxes through it. :)). For
Apache/mod_perl/PHP, I downloaded the source and installed those directly
along with Mysql...

Subject: Re: Looking for a new distro
heya all:
im really waiting for the next bunch of releases here,
im hoping that they all start doing a lil more Q&A before release!!
ive tried a lot of different dists and nothing has me going
"oh yeah!!"
mandrake 7.2 is my current
"lesser of Nth evils"
last summer i went to town downloading everything from
debian to suse and back to slack and redhat
at the time i started using mandrake its mod_perl was sett up nice
its not bad on 7.2 but it splits up so there is an httpd and an httpd-perl
i dont like having to configure
both so i un-rpmd then and rolled my own, DSO style
install in less than thirty mins
drop my config in and zoom!!
again some of this has to do with how a dist sets up apache
i like it all in /home/ww
but most put the conf 's under /etc etc etc.
some of these compatiblility & file management issues drive me nuts!!
and i usually uninstall and recomp my own
well that my take on it anyhow
