Re^2: What do people think of the YaBB forum script?

If by mod_perl version you mean Apache::Registry friendly scripts, then both ikonBoard and UBB v6.x already offer that. If however YaBB2 implements real Apache request handlers, that would be a novelty indeed.

ikonBoard really doesn't play nice with mod_perl. There's an attempt to support it, but it's not there yet. I just pulled down v3.11 this week to evaluate it, and I still haven't gotten it to run properly under mod_perl. It runs great as a cgi app though. If anyone wants to try to hack it to make it run better under mod_perl, I'd suggest installing it asa cgi app first. If you don't, the installer doesn't support mod_perl at all. You'll have to touch installer.(cgi\|pl) after each step so it recompiles and runs properly. Code appears to be written well... great functionality as a cgi, but mod_perl support just isn't there yet.	[reply]

Yes, real request handlers. No easy configuration yet but I figure anyone wanting to use mod_perl will know what they're doing.	[reply]
