ModPerl make test and make install Issues

Hi, 

I am trying to install mod-perl on a linux box. I do not have root
permissions. The make test failed on various test which I think could be
ignore. 

However make install fails as obviously my user-id on the system does
not have proper permission for all the directories. Here is the error
that I am getting. 
Is there anyway I can change the path for this step. 

 

****************** ERROR test from make install step **************** 

Warning: You do not have permissions to install into
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 114.

 

mkdir
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/APR:
Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 176

make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255

 

****************** **************** 

Thanks

S

Try 'sudo make install'

You need to tell it to install a private perl lib then.  Check the
install instructions for the details of how to tell it where to
install the perl modules.  I think what you want is LIB and maybe
PREFIX as well.
