(please examine t/logs/error_log) at t/TEST line but he already gave all the info we need above. steve, the httpd being used to run the tests does not have mod_perl configured. which means there's a flaw in the steps you took to configure/build. try INSTALL.simple or the appropriate section of the guide.

Steve, Assuming your problem and the one I posted several weeks ago are the same, the cause and solution are self-evident -- but only after the fact (perhaps we should call it post-self-evident, "pse" for short :-) In my case, I had a fresh Apache and I built mod_perl without building Apache. That would be a fairly normal thing to do if you want to add modules besides mod_perl, and it's a correct procedure according to the documentation. There is a fundamental flaw, however, in both the documentation and the procedure: If you haven't build Apavhe, there is no httpd executable in the Apache source tree. Everything tested as advertised only when I first built mod_perl and installed it in the Apache source tree, then built Apache with the mod_perl libraries, and then went back and did the test for mod_perl. All tests passed without a hitch. I installed Apache, and using the example in the O'Reilly book (can't remember which critter is on the cover), wrote the obligatory "Hello World", and was on my way. -- Rob _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ /\_\_\_\_\/\_\ /\_\_\_\_\_\ /\/_/_/_/_/ /\/_/ \/_/_/_/_/_/ QUIDQUID LATINE DICTUM SIT, /\/_/__\/_/ __/\/_//\/_/ PROFUNDUM VIDITUR /\/_/_/_/_/ /\_\ /\/_//\/_/ /\/_/ \/_/ /\/_/_/\/_//\/_/ (Whatever is said in Latin \/_/ \/_/ \/_/_/_/_/ \/_/ appears profound) Rob Tanner McMinnville, Oregon [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: "make test" fails, httpd fails to start
The file t/logs/error_log is never created. httpd fails because /t/conf/httpd.conf looks more like a pod file than a httpd.conf. How is the correct httpd.conf file supposed to be created? What can I do to determine why the creation is not happening??
