in reply to mod_perl or ActiveState perl for win32?

mod_perl and ActiveState Perl are two different beasts. mod_perl is a way of rolling a perl interpreter into Apache; this allows Perl to stub into the various low-level nooks and crannies of the web server. ActiveState Perl, on the other hand, is a distribution of perl. The two are not mutually exclusive; indeed they are wholly independant entities.

See http://perl.apache.org/ for more on mod_perl.

    I was just reading the documentation from Oracle and I think most of my problems stem from the fact that I don't have MSVC and nmake.
    Thanks,

      The Perl and mod_perl enabled Apache supplied with 9i are old versions. Best advice (from the guide) is to use the latest versions.
