Unable to build Apache::Scoreboard 0.10 with 5.6.0/1.3.19/1.25/RH 6.2

2001-05-08 Thread Tommy Davis

I'm having problems compiling Apache::Scoreboard on a RH 6.2 system with 
the following packages all compiled from source:

Kernel 2.2.19
Apache 1.3.19
Perl 5.6.0
mod_perl 1.25
libgtop1.0.7
glib1.2.8
Apache::Scoreboard 0.10

I've searched the archive, and have seen mention of the same problem 
twice, but no solutions. The error is shown below.

I've compiled Apache::Scoreboard many times on very similar systems. The 
most recent one with the same setup, apart from:
Kernel 2.2.18
Apache 1.3.12
mod_perl 1.24_01


I'm wondering if I should recompile Apache, Perl or mod_perl after 
installing kernel 2.2.19.

Any suggestions as to why Apache::Scoreboard fails to compile?

Syntax errors across multiple virtual hosts with separate codebase

2001-05-02 Thread Tommy Davis

We use a server-setup with a mod_perl enabled backend server. The server 
only runs mod_perl and mySQL for about 5 virtual hosts.

Our problem is that a syntax-error in a program used on only one virutal 
host, causes an internal server error across all virtual hosts.
I suspect it's not possible to avoid this, but I would like to be sure. 
Can anyone confirm this?

Another problem is that the solutions uses diffferent databases. That 
means we end up with 5 ttimes as many open db handles as we have 
mod_perl processes.
We have worked around this by merging all databases into a single one, 
prefixing the table_names with the former db-names and using a simple 
abstraction layer to access the database.

I would be very interested to hear how others have solved this problem ( 
without buying more servers ;-).

Nope.  I suspect your code isn't as separate as you think it is.

I'm quite sure the they are separate, but I'll try some simple test-scenarios tonight to double-check.

I'm not sure how you create your database handles (in a centrallocation then passed around, or in each handler as you need it), butin MySQL (as with other databases) you can execute a 'use dbname' tostart using a different database.So your definition can be the same for all virtual hosts but you candefine a variable via PerlSetVar or in a configuration file that hasthe database name. When you ask for a database handle you can thencreate it using a common database name (e.g, 'mysql') and thenexecute the 'use dbname' statement:

Thanks a bunch - I never thought about using "use dbname" in a mod_perl/DBI context. It's obvious when you know it ;-).
