mod_perl2 build error - ‘conn_rec’ has no member named ‘remote

nitin1704 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm trying to install mod_perl2 on my Ubuntu VM. Perl 5.14.2 and Apache 2.4.2 have already been installed. When I run the make command, it ends with an error. Please advise.

Oh okay then. I searched (boattloads of magic.. :P) about this issue online before posting it here. But none of the links gave a definite answer or any way to resolve the issue.	[reply]

Right, it can be tricky interpreting those postings. What illuminated/definitized it for me was the mention that 2.4 is to 2.2 like 1.x is to 2.x, in other words, many significant API changes , meaning much work for mod_perl developers to do, not simple typos I can fix I'm boattloads of magic, I search	[reply]

Isn't it easier to `apt-get install libapache2-mod-perl2`? Sorry if my advice was wrong.	[reply] [d/l]

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/modperl/modperl/104081 suggests that the bottom-line is that this loaf of bread hasn’t really been taken out of the oven yet. That the best thing to do for now is to gracefully withdraw from the bleeding-edge until the two modules have been made compatible with one another. That work appears to be in progress.

That command will just install apache 2.2.22 and mod_perl 2.0.5 (assuming the system running is Ubuntu 12.04). Is Apache 2.4 really necessary? Sorry if my advice was wrong.	[reply]
