Re: Re: Apache and mod_perl resources

Hi, thanks for the reply :)

I already have a fairly solid background in Perl, albeit a bit rusty. I do plan to use Apache 1.3.x (1.3.28 specifically right now), mostly due to unfounded, paranoid stability/security concerns.

I've been looking at a few other books since I posted this (funny how that works ;), and I think these might do the trick:

The mod_perl cookbook
Apache Administrator's Handbook (-- for being from Sam's publishing, but ++ for nice content layout)

Any recommendations for or against these or any other resource would be appreciated :)

Well, mod_perl Cookbook, Practical mod_perl, and Writing Apache Modules in Perl and C (the Eagle Book) are the only books about general mod_perl stuff. If you don't know much about apache then other books might help, but really I think that these three books plus the stuff on the site are really the primary resources. You should also join the mailing list if you haven't already.	[reply]
