Problem installing asp.. mldbm-sync and more...
Okay ive been having some problems with the install process..
I have windows XP as the server im running active perl, apache, mysql and
soon php
So anyway i load up ppm and set the repository to one i found on a site. I
installed all the packages i needed to be able todo the apache asp install.
"install apache::asp"
So anyway i get to the last package i need mldbm::sync
it says it finds a copy on the repository and so i goto install it and i
get..
Error installing package 'mldbm-sync': Could not locate a PPD file for
package mldbm-sync
So i went and downloaded the actual tar file untared it and now i ahve the
files inside what do i do with them? also the repository im usuing says it
has apache-asp too same problem so i downloaded the tar from the site too.
Unzipped it tryied todo the to run the make file from c:\asp where i untared
it also to. It runs but says i need mldbm. So if you could tell me a
repository of where i can find it that it works to use ppm from i would
appreciate it. I'm new to all the perl stuff. And i dont know how to use
cpan i couldn't get it to start for me. Else i was under the impression that
it works like ppm and will download and instll the software you need. If
anyone can help me i would appreciate it either a repository or just what i
do next with the mldbm-sync files.
Thanks in advance,
Tyler

Did specifying the full path to the module help as Ruggero suggested?
On NT, I did not have to do this, since the path was set correctly relative
to the apache server root.
I remember when I installed it that I had to pay special attention to
the PATH environment variable being set so that perl & openssl libraries
got picked up correctly, did you do this? XP kernel is based on NT, so I
imagine this would not be done in the config.ini, but in the system control panel
if XP has it still. I would think it odd that the error would be
"cannot be found", if really a shared library could not be loaded,
but this might be it.
Failing further progress on this to help you, you might contact
the package maintainer directly, Randy. He might know of issues
specific to XP.
Finally, whatever the solution is, be sure you post it here for
the benefit of all!

thanks for responding. I tried that distribution before thats why i set off
to get it working from scratch that distro has everything i need except when
i tried to start apache from it it said that it could not load the ssl or
perl
So i tried again now but i still get the same error. It is
"Syntax error on line 203 of c:/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /apache/modules/mod_ssl.so into server (126) The Specified
module cannot be found:
Not the errors or messages above and press esc to exit."
Thats exactly how ti looks i have the following dirs from teh binary distro
c:\apache
c:\openssl
c:\perl
The module open_ssl is in
C:\Apache\modules\mod_ssl.so
So i dunno why it can't find it.
I think remmed (er #'ed) out that line in the httpd.conf file.
Then i get an error on the next line ssame error just for the
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
Do i have to add add statements first to the config to get them to work? If
so which ones any help would be appreciative.
Thanks,
Tyler

I have never worked with Apache::ASP/mod_perl/apache as a ppm install.
I have however worked with the binary distribution as referenced here:
http://www.apache-asp.org/install.html#Win32%20%2F%20Wind0f0e8ac6

If you would like to continue on your track, and install modules like
Apache::ASP & MLDBM::Sync by hand, then you need to copy the modules
to the right locations from the install tar to the place in the perl
lib tree that they belong... ASP.pm would go in $perllib/Apache/ASP.pm,
MLDBM::Sync Sync.pm would go in $perllib/MLDBM/Sync.pm ... but I would
not recommend doing it this way if you can avoid it.
You can also ask ActiveState support to build ppm versions of these
modules for you.
If I were in your position, I would use the ftp distribution linked
to above. It should be fairly complete & easy to get going.
