mod_perl installation problem

[N L <op...@yahoo.fr>]

Hello ,
I am working on Mac Osx Tiger, I installed automaticly
 a package including apache2 , php5, MySQL4, and
phpMyAdmin it is really clean and it is working fine
but now I want to install with this the mod_perl
module I saw one is able to install dynamic mod_perl
if apache is already installed. So I download
mod_perl2 toinstalle it properly manually:
As it is explained in the installation  documentation
I write on Xterm the command: perl Makefile.PL
MP_AP_PREFIX="path to apache2 directory" (because all
file are in the same directory). It was fine ; After I
wanted to do a "make test" and I get this error
message :
waiting 120 seconds for server to start: .Syntax error
on line 172 of
/Users/lineneildelbosc/.cpan/build/mod_perl-2.0.2/t/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into
server: Library not loaded:

[  error] giving up after 121 secs. If you think that
your system
is slow or overloaded try again with a longer timeout
value.
by setting the environment variable
APACHE_TEST_STARTUP_TIMEOUT
to a high value (e.g. 420) and repeat the last
command.

[  error] server failed to start! (t/logs/error_log
wasn't created, start the server in the debug mode)

Is there somebody understanding what is happening and
what it means?

Thanks in advance

what directory did your multi-item package install things into?

did you type in:
	MP_AP_PREFIX="path to apache2 directory"
it should be something like
	MP_AP_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache2/

the message is saying that modperl/apache is looking for libphp in  / 
usr/local/apache2/ -- ie: that is the root of the apache install, but  
its not finding it.  thats probably because your system installed it  
elsewhere - you need to pass that line in.  its also looking for  
libxml2.2.dylib in /usr/local/lib/, where it wasn't intstalled as well.

i'm kind of perplexed that you were able to make this , and it failed  
on the test.  it seems like you compiled it against apache right, but  
set an odd basedir?

i think libapreq has bug where it uses the wrong apache  root for  
make test on osx - maybe this is a variant of that?
