building mod_perl on Windows

[Hong Ye <ho...@cornell.edu>]

Hi,

I’m trying to build mod_perl on Windows 2008 R2 and stuck with the nmake error.  Thanks in advance for any advice. The version of mod_perl is 2.0.5. I’ve installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 ,active perl 5.12, Apache 2.2.22 on the server.  After perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=\Path\to\Apache2, I did nmake, then here is the error I got

c:\src\mod_perl-2.0.5>nmake
