Hi!
Question: when will mod_perl be available for Apache 24?
There's a PR where people are discussing this:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191471
This PR needs more testers etc.
I've updated the PR with a patch against the latest mod_perl trunk
revision (r1602105).
The patch against the port can be grabbed from here or from our bugzilla
http://people.freebsd.org/~ohauer/diffs/apache/mod_perl2-2.0.8_apache24.diff
Please test *at own risk*, and report issues to upstream and here so we
can integrate fresh upstream fixes and update the port.
The first proposed patch will allows the port to build but I have to many
concerns for integrating this simple fix into the tree.
I don't believe the first patch on the PR will work right else it would
take the upstream dev. work and time for mod_perl2 at absurdI -um ...
I have taken a slightly different approach, using the mod_perl2 SVN
..../httpd24 branch as the starting point.
The httpd24 branch is obselete. It was used for the initial
development of httpd-2.4 support, but was superseded by
httpd24threading, and since then everything from both branches has
been merged back to trunk.
The current trunk is largely ready for a 2.0.9 release supporting
httpd-2.4, pending some more testing and fixes as necessary.
I tried using the trunk a couple of days ago and it did not compile. Just to
make sure
that I am using the right SVN respository and branch, what is the URL of the
trunk SVN repository?
I am more than happy to try testing mod_perl.
Hm, with the following patch applied to www/mod_perl2 it builds fine for me on
FreeBSD 8.4 / 10.0 (amd64) an apache-2.4.10
http://people.freebsd.org/~ohauer/diffs/apache/mod_perl2-2.0.8_apache24.diff
The patch does some adjustments in the port / pkg-plist and fetches a complete
archive containing all patches so the sources are the same as the upstream
(r1602105) trunk/httpd24threade branch.
After applying the patch and using the command `make patch' it is easy to
compare the sources against upstream sources (check out before)
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/perl/modperl/branches/httpd24threading
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/perl/modperl/trunk
Easiest way to apply the patch against the unmodified port:
$ cd www/mod_perl2
$ fetch
http://people.freebsd.org/~ohauer/diffs/apache/mod_perl2-2.0.8_apache24.diff
$ patch -p1 < mod_perl2-2.0.8_apache24.diff
PS:
I've updated the patch because it needs some additional handling for pkg-plist
if build against apache-2.2.x (Provider.pm/Provider.so)
I tried your procedure (see above). The patch applied, I was able to
compile the mod_perl,
and 'make test' ran and it passed all of the critical tests.
I then ran some more of my tests for the functionality it used. These
passed.
I would say that unless somebody else comes up with a problem that I
would use this as a baseline
for distribution/installation.
That is, I would put up the modified Makefile, with a warning, but
would allow people
to make/install it by specifying an option such as "make IGNORE_WARNING=yes"
Of course, the FreeBSD Ports team may have different views on this...
but until the upstream mod_perl team puts out mod_perl-2.0.9 officially
I think that this is the best we can do. Also, some more testers will
be able to try it out and report any problems....
