 with 2.0.36 there is a segfault and with 2.0.37-dev (last cvs) a transferlog
 directive not understood by the server (which prevents to start)

I was having troubles too on Win32 with mod_perl-2 and perl-5.6.1

ok to try with perl 5.8.0 but i have many modules installed with ppm from
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages

and those of activestate perl.

 I am able to install ppm package to a perl 5.8.0 i compile myself , without
activestate ppm ?

for instance modules that rely on a binary library like XML::LibXML or
XML::Parser, and that don't install on win32 with usual perl makefile.pl
etc


thanks
pascal

I have been trying 5.8RC1 and I tried to compile/install several modules
that I have
on 5.6.1 - CPAN, not PPM.
At least the following do not build and/or test right (not exhaustive, as I
got tired after a while):

TK   # C error 
Archive::Tar # in getting file handles from zlib
PPM  # depends on the above
MLDBM# de/serilized structures do not compare on
tests
Devel::TraceLoad # ??
Module::Info # Serious?
Win32::API   # Serious? C diagnostic
libxml-perl  # Fails test
XML-RSS  # contains XML::RSS.3 in man, unpack fails -
builds otherwise.

Other related modules build e.g.:

XML:Parse builds/test
Compress::Zlib builds/test (after some pain...)

Posted in the hope it may help somebody...

Cheers,

as mentioned in the 580 announce, every module based on xs have to recompile
the xs . so it is hopeless to install a 561 module based on xs in 580 (for
example win32::API)


running nmake test with 580 (to test modperl-1.99_02) asks for
win32::process in INC this is in libperlwin32 and it requires win32::API.

then I don't see how to test 1.99_02 with perl 580 ...

cheers

Can you please send a detailed report to the perl5porters list?
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and the module authors? Please include the version numbers
and all error messages.

I know that Nick Ing-Simmons has tested 5.8.0RC1 with Tk, but maybe
you used a lower rev version than his. I have tried Tk myself
with a patchlevel a few days before RC1 happened, and it was OK.
On Linux, not Windows.

Thanks a lot,
Lupe Christoph
