Production Web Server Question

[Alejandro Galue <ag...@sync.com.ve>]

 
Hello All,

I need help with mod_perl

My production servers has RedHat 8.0 and 9.0 using Perl, Apache and mod_perl
RedHat rpms.

What is your suggestion for a production server ?

In others emails I read that perl 5.8.1 with Apache 1.3.28 and mod_perl 1.28
is the best stable solution for a production server. Is that true ????

If yes ?, please anyone can help me with the manual compilation procedures,
I mean, parameters for ./configure for apache and perl, and Makefile.PL for
mod_perl, becase this packages has no RPM distribution for this redhat
versions ????

Thanks,
Alejandro Galue.

Actually the answer could be no as well. Most likely you want to use mp 1.29 
if you go with 5.8.1 as it fixes a potential security vulnerability if rand is 
used, posted earlier along with the 1.29 announcement:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=106606815710227&w=2

Also Apache 1.3.29 should be announced any moment now, and you probably want 
to use that one as well.

Depending on your needs, yes.
