mod perl fails

[unixmad <un...@blueyonder.co.uk>]

Hi, I have apache2 php5 and mysql all working, however I then want to 
have mod_perl compiled and installed with apache so i did perl 
Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs 
MP_APR_CONFIG=/usr/local/apache/bin/apr-config

after doing make it errors near the end with
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/apache/lib/libapr-0.a(apr_snprintf.o): 
relocation R_X86_64_32S can not be used when making a shared object; 
recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/apache/lib/libapr-0.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

How would I go about fixing this?

Also I compiled apache2 with

CFLAGS='-DEAPI' \
SSL_BASE=../openssl-0.9.7d \
./configure \
--with-mpm=worker \
--prefix=/usr/local/apache \
--enable-module=ssl \
--enable-shared=ssl \
--enable-module=rewrite \
--enable-shared=max \
--enable-module=so

here are the versions I used

httpd-2.0.50
mod_perl-1.99_16
mysql-4.0.20
openssl-0.9.7d
PHP-5.0.1

Im am new and have limited understanding of this but I have followed the 
docs to the best of my ability and still keep getting this problem any 
help would be greatly appreciated

Im new so if you require any more information , could you let me no what 
steps to take & I will glady do so. As I have nearly got everything 
installed that I need but perl has been the most hassle.
Regards
David

I'd guess that this is an issue with your perl.  my perl -V shows

  Dynamic Linking:
    dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=undef, ccdlflags='-Wl,-E'
    cccdlflags='-fpic', lddlflags='-shared -L/usr/local/lib'

which is where the -fpic compile option is taken from.  so, please post your
perl -V, in addition to reading over

  http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/help/help.html#Reporting_Problems

specifically the part on compilers and generating a proper bug report.

just for general knowledge, I have no problem getting mod_perl and php to
coexist in the same apache using DSO, but I've only tried 5.0.0.
