Thanks for the suggestions. Not running FreeBSD may lead to deeper issues for us because of the type of work that we do. Downgrading could be an option but there is already so much done, and services running like email, etc. I'd rather try to find the problem as is.
I ran ktrace twice. Once with Apache loading mod_perl, and once without loading it. The kdump output files are identical for all practical purposes. They also have exactly the same size. Apache runs without mod_perl, but I also find this in both files: 69375 ktrace CALL execve(0x7fffffffe550,0x7fffffffeae0,0x7fffffffeb00) 69375 ktrace NAMI "/usr/bin/apachectl" 69375 ktrace RET execve -1 errno 13 Permission denied -----Original Message----- From: Jie Gao [mailto:j....@sydney.edu.au] Sent: Saturday, May 09, 2015 12:31 AM To: i...@3dnetproductions.com; 'mod_perl list' Subject: RE: mod_perl and apache 2.4 I can see the full name of functions in mod_perl.so with a "wide format" now, so they do exist. But they are in the relocation section. Run "strace -f apachectl restart" to see where it erred by what function / calling what file. There might be some restriction to what lib files you are allowed to load. I'd change OS to save time. -Jie ________________________________________ From: Jie Gao [j....@sydney.edu.au] Sent: Saturday, May 09, 2015 11:59 AM To: i...@3dnetproductions.com; 'mod_perl list' Subject: RE: mod_perl and apache 2.4 mod_perl.so indeed does not have "modperl_io_perlio_restore_stdout", nor "modperl_io_perlio_restore_stdin"; it does have "modperl_io_perlio_restore", which does not seem to be defined anywhere in the source.

Thank you, -----Original Message----- From: GLG [mailto:i...@3dnetproductions.com] Sent: Friday, May 01, 2015 7:12 PM To: 'mod_perl list' Subject: RE: mod_perl and apache 2.4 Thanks André. Your info was useful. I can't say that I solved this yet, but I did find something strange. But first, I no longer think there's an issue with libtool. It looks like there's a fix running. Secondly, I had to 'pkg install p5-BSD-Resource' dependency manually, because the automatic installation by mod_perl2 didn't work. And third, Can't really do 'make test' either because it has to run as a priviledged user, and then Apache wants a non-priviledged user for the test suite. Can't have both. So no dice. But see below for where the real problem seems to be: Short version: Notice how gmake is installing mod_perl in ../ ../mach/5.18/ <--- correct but later tries to read from ../ ../5.18/mach/ <--- incorrect Something is backward??? What is the right way to resolve this? I have been at it way too long.
