To give you some confidence in ActivePerl+mod_perl
on Win32, I have 2 years back implemented a mini ERP system ENTIRELY on this
same platform, with a call centre, reception, billing and invoicing, and
other administrative components. It sits on a 2 simple servers: 1 for the
application, and the other for the database. It is still working
today.

Subject: Re: mod_perl 2.0.0 + Apache
2.0.55 on Cygwin Win2k3
Let me make this CLEAR please.
Activestate perl, or any
other perl/mod_perl/Apache that I found for windows fails under any load with
zero error messages in any of the log files. I need to do some sort of
trace or something to get any real info for you developers, this I know. But
in the mean time I'm looking for a quick solution. The problem with
native perl/apache/mod_perl is that randomly something will hang and just eat
up memory and about 30% cpu. We did benchmark load testing and just are
loading up the splash page over and over and over. Even at the rate of 4
requests per second, it will hand, it will take time, but it will hand... the
exact same config on Solaris is perfect.
I'm sure it's something in
Apache::ASP and the Apache2:proting / Apache2:compat modules that hosing
things up.

A word of caution from personal
experience here.
First, I love ActiveState' s
stuff - I bought (out of my pocket) personal and pro licenses for Komodo 3.2
and 3.5. I run ActivePerl 5.8 and ActivePython 2.4 on my Winblows and
Linux boxes at home. So what's the prob?
At the office, installing
ActivePerl just annoyed the sysadmins because it didn't really break
anything but I found myself in the position of begin able to take advantage
of some pretty cool modules (like IO::ALL, e.g.) that have been upgraded or
designed for 5.8 when the infrastructure remains at 5.6. I didn't
think of this (doh!) until I tried deploying a little app I wrote and found
it wouldn't work. Make sure your infrastructure will support your
upgrade!
Second, and though way more
serious for me but perhaps not for you, I did the same with ActivePython and
it broke all the system utilities on my Red Hat Enterprise 4
workstation. This really pissed off the sysadmins and raised flags
with the Security folks.
Third, one of the linux support
folks here told me they were not supporting ActiveState products because the
company was in the process of dissolving or being bought or something that
made service and support continuity questionable. Can anybody confirm
this?
