What is lastest stable version of mod_perl? newbie question.
What's the latest stable version of mod_perl?
I believe the latest stable version of Apache is 1.3.19, which is what I am
running.
I am at mod_perl version 1.25.
As I understand it, I need to recompile mod_perl with Apache 1.3.19 and perl
5.8 on sun box in order to get perl 5.8 (hitting an Oracle 9.0.1 database)
working with the mod_perl scripts.

You need 5.8 only to work with threaded mpm (Apache 2.0) and mod_perl 1.99_08.

No, the latest stable Apache version is 2.0.44. However, you should
probably get the stable 1.x version, 1.3.27, since mod_perl 2.x is not
really stable yet. See http://httpd.apache.org

PLEASE spend some time at http://perl.apache.org perusing the VERY
comprehensive and clear documentation. I am not aware that you _need_ perl
5.8 to compile the latest apache and mod_perl, but you might as well get
it now since you are upgrading those packages too. perl 5.6.1 eould also
be fine; perl 5.6.0 has problems.
