Re: Make test with mod_perl 1.26

Then I decided (or was asked, actually) to upgrade to Apache 1.3.20/ mod_perl 1.26. The Apache install by itself ran fine, but when I try to 'make test' with mod_perl, I get the following error: ../apache_1.3.20/src/httpd -f `pwd`/t/conf/httpd.conf -X -d `pwd`/t httpd listening on port 8529 will write error_log to: t/logs/error_log letting apache warm up...\c done /usr/bin/perl t/TEST 0 modules/actions.ok modules/cgi.FAILED test 4 Failed 1/5 tests, 80.00% okay No other errors but this one, but this one is enough to stop the install from working. Any ideas? I have tried reinstalling, redownloading... What CGI.pm version are you using? perl -MCGI -le 'print $CGI::VERSION' i think I've seen the same problem with v 3.02 which unfortunately gets installed by CPAN shell. In any case, when you have a problem with some test you should post the output of the verbose run. In your case it's: make start_httpd perl ./t/TEST -v modules/cgi make kill_httpd The only thing I have NOT done is installed Perl 5.6.1, which both Bundle::CPAN and Bundle::Apache tried to install. Is this necessary for this to work? Perl 5.00503 is on the box already. I was not planning to upgrade Perl at this time. I looked through the mailing list for similar errors, but no one seems to be having this exact problem. you can always do: cpan force install mod_perl to ignore the results of tests. Of course it's a good thing to report a bug and solve it. _ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://apachetoday.com http://eXtropia.com/ http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/

Is there a way to go back to an earlier version, if that will take care of this problem? It was installed by either Bundle::CPAN or Bundle::Apache - I have installed both of these recently. Not with CPAN.pm. Grab it manually from CPAN or just copy CGI.pm if you still have it around (use 'locate') i think I've seen the same problem with v 3.02 which unfortunately gets installed by CPAN shell. In any case, when you have a problem with some test you should post the output of the verbose run. In your case it's: make start_httpd perl ./t/TEST -v modules/cgi make kill_httpd Here is the output from that: /usr/local/src/mod_perl-1.26 # make start_httpd ../apache_1.3.20/src/httpd -f `pwd`/t/conf/httpd.conf -X -d `pwd`/t httpd listening on port 8529 will write error_log to: t/logs/error_log letting apache warm up...\c done /usr/local/src/mod_perl-1.26 # perl ./t/TEST -v modules/cgi modules/cgi.module CGI is installed 1..5 ok 1 ok 2 ok 3 ok 5 FAILED test 4 Failed 1/5 tests, 80.00% okay Failed Test Status Wstat Total Fail Failed List of failed --- modules/cgi.t 51 20.00% 4 Failed 1/1 test scripts, 0.00% okay. 1/5 subtests failed, 80.00% okay. /usr/local/src/mod_perl-1.26 # make kill_httpd kill `cat t/logs/httpd.pid` rm -f t/logs/httpd.pid rm -f t/logs/error_log yeah, that's what I saw. The only thing I have NOT done is installed Perl 5.6.1, which both Bundle::CPAN and Bundle::Apache tried to install. Is this necessary for this to work? Perl 5.00503 is on the box already. I was not planning to upgrade Perl at this time. Is there any way to avoid starting to install Perl 5.6.1 when you install Bundle::Apache or Bundle::CPAN? Yes and no. Newer CPAN.pm doesn't fetch 5.6.1 in most cases. I think it only does that if you ask for Data::Dumper and even then it asks whether you want to do that. May be that's not the case with Bundle:: you can always do: cpan force install mod_perl to ignore the results of tests. Of course it's a good thing to report a bug and solve it. What would the side effects be to doing this, if there is a problem with CGI.pm? No problems. CGI v3.x is in alpha stage. Get the 2.x version and you will be fine (and all the tests will pass too). IN any case, thanks for the help and direction.
