RE: Re: Apache/Mod_Perl in Production Env-- NOT Recommended inWindows?

Thanks Per. But should the stoic silence for this poser of mine, be construed as there are NO takers out there who have their Web Sites in Production, running out of Apache 1.XX and Mod-Perl 1.XX on Windows NT/2000?

Primarily we are a Microsoft shop, and I would like to answer this question to my bosses (if possible). 

Thanks,
Rex

Well, I wouldn't say it's undoable. You could try it out and see if it 
works for you. But I wouldn't take my word for it, because it depends on 
many factors (especially the number of concurrent connections).

What I can suggest is that you take a look at PerlEx from ActiveState. For 
Windows, it might be a better choice, although it costs a little money.

>From private correspondence I know that there's some sites
running production servers using Apache-1/mod_perl-1, but there
are Win32-specific issues with doing so - see the Win32 docs
at http://perl.apache.org/#docs for a discussion. Much of this
will be addressed in Apache-2/mod_perl-2.
