Re: Re(4)^2: Apache and HTML::Mason::CGIHandler, Not being called?

Apologies: the file is called mod_perl.so. If it's not in your <apache>/modules directory (where it should be:) you'll have to manually extract it from the ppm archive (at an address something like: http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/x86/mod_perl.tar.gz) and place it in the <apache>/modules directory. There are other mod_perl binaries in that location, so you may have to pick the apache version relevent to your installation (e.g. mod_perl-1.26_1.3.20.tar.gz or whatever).

Ok, once I've moved mod_perl.so into position, what do I need to do to enable it? I see no settings commented out in the settings file for mod_perl (just about every other mod_ you can imagine, but not mod_perl) Thanks for all this help, youre a life-saver (take that however you choose, if you wish to be candy, so be it) My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.

In the httpd.conf file there will be a whole bunch of commented-out lines that start: `#LoadModule foo_module modules/mod_foo.so` [download] where `foo` is something like proxy, digest, usertrack etc. At the end of this list add the line: `LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so` [download] In the section after that you'll see something like: `ClearModuleList ... AddModule mod_foo.c ...` [download] add the following line to the end of the list: `AddModule mod_perl.c` [download] Note: the capitalisation is important. You should have a working mod_perl installation after this. When your Apache server starts you should see somthing like: `Apache/1.3.26 (Win32) mod_perl/1.27_01-dev running...` [download] I'll update my original instructions appropriately so that the next monk who wanders along with a mod_perl/win32 install problem doesn't have to go through all of your frustrations.

`Apache/1.3.27 (Win32) mod_perl/1.27_01-dev running...` Sweet!!! Thanks! IT FINALLY WORKS! ok... thats enough... (/me calms down) Now I can finally continue that project. *rdfield++; # For all your patience My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.
