I am running Apache 1.3 in a FreeBSD jail which works as expected. Next I added in mod_perl 1.0 by installing, adding the entry to the httpd.conf file to load dynamically and copy across the libraries to the jail. I also copied the usr/bin/perl file and the directories under perl5 to the jail, however apache will no longer start as it is displaying an error as follows: Can't open perl script "/dev/null": Operation not supported I have tried removing and recreating the /dev/null device in the jail, (as it was already there and working for the standard Apache install) but to no avail. Any ideas as to what to try next?
