Apache2 on RedHat 9

[mlpoulter <m....@bris.ac.uk>]

Hi,
 I've upgraded my RedHat server to version 9 with Apache 2. Reading
previous messages I see there have been issues with ASP on Apache 2,
so just to clarify: are the RPMs useless?
For what it's worth, I've installed Apache2 and Mod_Perl2 from RPM and
got a functioning web server. I've commented out the httpd.conf lines
referring to the worker MPM. Installing the latest Apache::ASP from
CPAN and putting a basic config in perl.conf causes an error with
every hit, beginning "Can't locate object method "dir_config" via
package "Apache::RequestRec" "
Also, Apache does not seem to like "PerlModule" directives in either
httpd.conf or perl.conf.
Is there an up-to-date series of steps to get ASP working on this
platform? I'm not averse to compiling source, but if something can be
done with RPMs, then obviously that's a bit easier to keep track of.

Respect and admiration to Josh as always!

If you have an RPM with mod_perl 1.99_07, that seems like it would
work pretty well.  Make sure you have upgraded to the latest 2.53 Apache::ASP
from CPAN, which should work fine with MP2 / Apache 2.

Make sure to "PerlModule Apache::ASP" in your httpd.conf.  If your
httpd.conf does not support PerlModule, make sure you are using the
latest mod_perl 2 release which should support that.

Regards,

Josh

Further to the previous message, I should clarify that the latest
versions I've found available as Red Hat RPMs are Apache 2.0.40 and
mod_perl 1.99.07.
