First off, if you could cc responses to me, that would be great. On to the problem. I compiled apache 1.3.20 from sources, w/ the following compiled statically:mm 1.1.3, mod_layout 3.0, mod_perl 1.25, mod_ssl 2.8.4, and php 4.0.6. I am running perl 5.6.1, originally installed from RPM and then upgraded via cpan.
Whenever I try to run apache I get the following errors. If I run apachectl start or startssl, I get "Apache.pm failed to load!" in my error_log, and "apachectl start: httpd could not be started" printed to my console. If I run httpd -f httpd.conf.p4a (my configuration file, working on a different machine that is to be migrated to this one) I get: Can't locate object method "module" via package "Apache" (perhaps you forgot to load "Apache"?) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Apache/DBI.pm line 202. Compilation failed in require at /www/conf/httpd.conf.p4a line 287. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /www/conf/httpd.conf.p4a line 287. The block of code that encompasses line 287 is: <snip> <IfModule mod_perl.c> PerlFreshRestart On PerlModule Apache # I don't think that this line does anything, but #I get the same errors w/ and w/out it PerlModule Apache::Status PerlModule Apache::Registry PerlModule Apache::ASP PerlModule Apache::DBI </IfModule> </snip> and line 202 in DBI.pm is: <snip> Apache::Status->menu_item( 'DBI' => 'DBI connections', sub { my($r, $q) = @_; my(@s) = qw(<TABLE><TR><TD>Datasource</TD><TD>Username</TD></TR>); for (keys %Connected) { push @s, '<TR><TD>', join('</TD><TD>', (split($;, $_))[0,1]), "</TD></TR>\n"; } push @s, '</TABLE>'; return \@s; } ) if ($INC{'Apache.pm'} && Apache->module('Apache::Status')); 1; </snip> httpd -l lists mod_perl as being loaded. I compile all of apache w/out any errors, and all of my perl/cpan installs have went smoothly. Apache::DBI is installed and is at version number 1.20. To verify that it is not just my apache install, I try to run perl /www/conf/startup/pl and get the same DBI error. my startup.pl file is as follows: <snip> use strict; die "no mod_perl :(" unless $ENV{MOD_PERL}; $ENV{'GATEWAY_INTERFACE'} =~ /^CGI-Perl/ or die "GATEWAY_INTERFACE not Perl!"; use Apache::Registry; use Apache::DBI; use LWP::UserAgent(); 1; </snip> Any possible hints/clues will be greatly appreciated!
