I tried to install mod_perl2 on this to get the Apache::Mp3 to work, but apparently mod_perl2 is not ready for prime time yet.
As I understand it, the issue is that Apache::MP3 does not have support for mod_perl 2 yet.
There was no bloody way I was going to change my entire webserver from httpd 2.048 to the older Apache 1.3x just to get mod_perl to run.
Sounds easier than installing a whole new server to me, unless you have a lot of apache 2-specific programs that you are committed to. You could also simply build apache 1.x/mod_perl 1.x in a different location on the same server and start it on port 8080 or something.
So I installed a new server with RH9, Apache 1.329, PHP4.34, MySQL 4.01 Then I tried to compile and get mod_perl 1.29 to run.
What instructions did you follow? There is a lot of information on installation here:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html
Also, although this is not mod_perl-specific, you should fix the locale problems with Red Hat 9's Perl:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/troubleshooting.html#RH_8_and_9_Locale_Issues
I need my Apache to compile with --enable-modules=most and enable-module=mod_so
Many people here use DSO builds, and there are full instructions at the link above.
(I always heard that qmail was really easy to install.)
