Copying Apache/Mod_perl/perl installation

[Ganesan M <ga...@unixlover.com>]

Hi all,

  This is  kinda installation question. I have installed perl, Apache,
Mod_perl with
some modules (GD, Apache FileManager, DBD-Chart etc.,) in my development
machine.
Is there anyway to copy the installation to a similar OS/architecture
without going through all the installtion proceedures.  In another words,
can I copy the installed software/packages to another machine which is of
same OS/architecture?

Any help/url/RTFMs... 'd be appreciated.

TIA,
G-Man.

try using the make targets tar_Apache and offsite-tar - they may be 
able to help, but they aren't mentioned all that often so they may not 
be up to date wrt the latest perl installation directories.  you can 
find some more information on them in recipe 1.13 in the cookbook:

good luck.
