in reply to Multi-threaded perl, mod_perl and apache-1.3.x?

Just enabling threads should not be a problem for mod_perl 1.x. Indeed Red Hat's perl is shipped with threads enabled, and many people use it (although they suffer a performance penalty for doing so). Can you explain a bit more about what you're trying to do and how it fails?

    Interesting, if I have apache load the libperl.so produced by a multi-threaded perl, it cores. I don't need perl's threads at all, it's just that I need to use a particular build.

    Your comment about Red Hat is encouraging. I'm looking for a combination of usethreads, use5005threads, useithreads, and usemultiplicity settings that works, I'll check out theirs, maybe I get lucky.

      Did you build mod_perl yourself against this perl? If so, it should work. You might want to look at the build instructions on the mod_perl site and possibly post your issue to the mailing list.
