Re: MP1 - libapreq1.2 broke apache / mod_perl installation
The latest version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker tickles a bug in libapreq's c/Makefile.PL. There has been quite a bit of discussion of this issue in the last week on apreq-dev, p5p, and on this list as well. aha! I'd noticed some threads about compiling libapreq - should have read them in detail. I always assume when i encounter a problem that it is my mistake/bug rather than the module's. Now and then it turns out it is the module. I should also get out of the habit of upgrading modules without discrimination... if i'd known of the conflict I'd have left MakeMaker unchanged as libapreq is of more use to me Michael Schwern [hope I spelled it right :] posted two patches to the apreq-dev list designed to fix these problems. As soon as enough folks decide which of his patches is best, we'll roll a 1.3 release that fixes the problem. I guess I'll just sit tight and wait, then. My mod_perl knowledge is not good enough to help here - and besides I am in a fight of my own with Apache::Session::Postgresql :( -- Iphigenie, [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 04/08/2003
Re: MP1 - libapreq1.2 broke apache / mod_perl installation
I installed libapreq1.2 on a server the normal way (perl Makefile.PL, make, make test, make install) and now my server refuses to run Apache::Cookie or Apache::Request. It complains of [Sun Aug 3 18:09:29 2003] [error] Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386- linux/auto/Apache/Cookie/Cookie.so' for module Apache::Cookie: libapreq.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 206. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/mod_perl.pm line 14 What puzzles me is that it this worked perfectly on another near identical machine. Why does it want .so files? I thought that happened only if you installed it using the ./configure method, which I didnt. I looked and I had files all over the place in my perl library tree, in Apache, libapreq, Apache/Cookie, Apache/Request, Apache/libapreq etc etc I reckon I had several versions in parallel and Dynaloader mixed and matched as it pleased. So I deleted all those Cookie.pm, Cookie.so, Request.pm, Request.so etc. etc. and reinstalled libapreq 1.0 My server works again so the panic is gone. The question remains: what did i naively do wrong the first time? Thanks

Probably nothing- this is a bug in libapreq. -- Joe Schaefer
