Hi, I wrote a web application for case management (legal, insurance) with mod_perl. The app is visible at :
http://marica.fr/ I recently purchased a 'dedibox' (http://www.online.net/serveur-dedie/offre-dedibox-v3.xhtml) intended to host it, and configured it with Debian. My setup is as follow : Two instances of Apache2 sit on the server, one with mod_ssl enabled, the other without. The former serves registered users on port 443, the latter serves only the demo account which is visible on the home page. After an initial connection to a common session database (using Apache::Session and cookies for session management), each server connects to a different PostgreSQL database for the data. This system has been running fine for several months on various 32bit systems. Problem description : When I use this new machine (it is currently disabled), my registered users on occasion will retrieve the data from the demo account instead of their own, as if the children spawned by the two apache2 processes got mixed up. This never happened before, so I'm guessing it is related to the fact that this is a 64bit processor, which I never used before. Could someone let me know from looking at the information below what I might have done wrong in my installation? Thank you. Below are the commands used to compile Perl and the 2 instances (without/with mod_ssl) of Apache2/mod_perl/libapreq. Then follows the output of `cat /proc/cpuinfo` and `Perl -V` # uname -a Linux sd-21096 2.6.32-bpo.4-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Apr 8 10:20:24 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux #Apache2/mod_perl version Apache/2.2.16 (Unix) mod_apreq2-20090110/2.7.1 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.12.1 # #Perl # wget -c http://www.cpan.org/src/perl-5.12.1.tar.gz tar -xzf perl-5.12.1.tar.gz #./Configure -des -Dcc=gcc -Dprefix=/home/perl/5.12.1 -Dextras="Compress::Zlib Bundle::LWP ExtUtils::XSBuilder CGI::Cookie URI::Escape" #configure for 64bit platform CFLAGS='-m64 -mtune=nocona' ./Configure -des -A ccflags=-fPIC -Dcc=gcc -Dprefix=/home/perl/5.12.1 -Dextras="Compress::Zlib Bundle::LWP ExtUtils::XSBuilder CGI::Cookie URI::Escape" # #Apache2 # #source wget -c http://apache.cict.fr/httpd/httpd-2.2.16.tar.gz tar -xzf httpd-2.2.16.tar.gz mkdir -p /home/httpd/2.2.16 cd /home/user1/src/httpd-2.2.16 ./buildconf ./configure --prefix=/home/httpd/2.2.16 --enable-rewrite make && make install # #mod_perl # wget -c http://perl.apache.org/dist/mod_perl-2.0-current.tar.gz /home/perl/5.12.1/bin/perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=/home/httpd/2.2.16 make && make test && make install Test Summary Report ------------------- t/hooks/authen_basic.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 4 Failed: 1) Failed test: 4 t/hooks/authz.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 4 Failed: 1) Failed test: 4 t/modules/apache_status.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 15 Failed: 2) Failed tests: 14-15 Files=238, Tests=2404, 163 wallclock secs ( 2.98 usr 1.48 sys + 122.83 cusr 15.66 csys = 142.95 CPU) Result: FAIL Failed 3/238 test programs. 4/2404 subtests failed.
