This is normal, because the mod_perl binary distribution for PPM is linked against ActivePerl. Of course, you need Perl and Apache installed for mod_perl to work. Another solution you might want to try is the self-extracting Perl-Apache-mod_perl archive. See "Win32 mod_perl-1.xx" at http://perl.apache.org/preview/modperl-docs/dst_html/download/binaries.html , then look at the documentation in the "readmes" directory that you get when you run the "perl-win32-bin-x.x.exe" self-extracing archive. This installation will provide you with precompiled Apache, Perl and mod_perl, which only need to be moved around slightly to work. -- Per Einar Ellefsen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
