I didn't see the arguments you used to compile apache in here. But would suggest using --with-included-apr as a build option. A couple other questions: 1) Do you specifically need threads? If not, it is generally advised to compile Perl without them. 2) Do you need mod_perl2 statically compiled? Most users choose to compile it as a shared object, which is widely tested. > and mod_perl > (2.0.5) from .tar.gz files download from respective repositories) but am at > a frustrating dead end.
