Re: mod-perl as DSO (solaris)
More testing but still problems... First I downloaded GCC and make from sunfreeware.com just in case Sun's versions are messed up (this is the ones distributed with Solaris 8). I built apache clean first with the following criteria: CFLAGS="-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -fno-strict-aliasing" \ ./configure \ "--with-layout=Apache" \ "--prefix=/usr/local/apache2" \ "--enable-shared=max" \ "--enable-module=most" \ "--enable-rule=SHARED_CORE" \ "$@" Then, I built perl clean with -Ubincompat5005. I did build a shared perl though. Then I built mod perl via APXS as a DSO with: $ perl Makefile.PL \ USE_APXS=1 \ WITH_APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs \ EVERYTHING=1 \ [...] $ make $ make test $ make install Note that make test does not work with APXS (docs should be updated !). But I got the followin errors: First, with the default http.conf 'apachectl configtest' fails with: Syntax error on line 212 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/libexec/mod_negotiation.so into server: ld.so.1: /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/apache2/libexec/mod_negotiation.so: symbol __floatdisf: referenced symbol not found Disabling mod_negotiation: Syntax error on line 231 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/libexec/libproxy.so into server: ld.so.1: /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/apache2/libexec/libproxy.so: symbol __floatdisf: referenced symbol not found And finally, disabling mod_proxy: Syntax error on line 238 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/libexec/libperl.so into server: ld.so.1: /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/apache2/libexec/libperl.so: symbol Perl_free_tmps: referenced symbol not found So what now ???

Re: mod-perl as DSO (solaris)
Might have figured out the problem, and it might be an apache issue dealing with largefiles: I compiled apache cleanly as: ./configure \ "--with-layout=Apache" \ "--prefix=/usr/local/apache2" \ "--enable-module=most" \ "--enable-shared=max" \ This worked. 'apachectl configtest' did not complain. Then I compiled mod_perl as: $ perl Makefile.PL \ USE_APXS=1 \ WITH_APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs \ EVERYTHING=1 \ And I got the following error message: Your Perl is uselargefiles enabled, but Apache is not, suggestions: *) Rebuild Apache with CFLAGS="-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" *) Rebuild Perl with Configure -Uuselargefiles *) Let mod_perl build Apache (USE_DSO=1 instead of USE_APXS=1) So I cleand and compiled apache again, but enabling these CFLAGS. Apache chocked on mod_negotiation. Any ideas now ???
