win32 won't take apache.exe path under Module::Build
After I started a big crapstorm on perl-qa about META.yml and
Module::Build, I now have to take my lumps and start using it. :-)
Following the TestMB pod, I have a working Build.PL that also calls:
$build->generate_script('t/TEST');
$build->generate_script('t/SMOKE');
'perl Build.PL' runs without errors. When I run 'perl Build test', I get
the endless loop of A::T looking for the Apache binary
[see attached: output.txt]
Of course, I didn't have this problem under Makefile.PL, and my
TestConfigData.pm looks like this:
> $Apache::TestConfigData::vars = {
> 'httpd' => 'C:\Development\Apache584\Apache.exe',
> 'port' => '8529',
>
> };
This is under Apache::Test 1.21 on 5.8.4.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
-=Chris

Yeah, duh. Great idea.
It should just be a matter of adding a Build.PL to the skeleton right?
I may have to manually add both the t/TEST.PL and th t/SMOKE.PL to get
it to run the wrong thing; hopefully.

I figured you'd have removed it to prevent the looping when you go to
build your module. At any rate, let us know what you find out.
Thanks,

Actually no, I haven't removed SMOKE.PL. Why would I want to?
Once I'm done with another round of code changes, I hope to get back to
figuring this out.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the extensive testing and reports. It will help me debug the
next time I run into this situation. Unfortunately I'm not familiar
enough with the innards of A::T to be of any further help. If you want
to continue tracking, perhaps you could try running your Build.PL
through the debugger to find where it's looping. Otherwise, I'm sure
you've already taken the measure to remove the SMOKE.PL from your
build script.
Regards,
William

Ok, here's what I've got. I downloaded the MP1 skeleton and extracted:
perl Makefile.PL
nmake
nmake test
Passes all tests pass and it uses my apache.exe from TestConfigData.
--------
Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Now, I add a simple Build.PL file (See attached: Build.PL.basic)
perl Build.PL
perl Build
perl Build test
Passes all tests pass and it uses my apache.exe from TestConfigData.
--------
Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Now, I add s simple Build.PL with a call to generate_script('t/SMOKE')
(See attached: Build.PL.smoke) and I add SMOKE.PL to t/
perl Build.PL
perl Build
perl Build test
Endless loop asking for location of Apache.exe.

--------
Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Repeat with Build.PL with generate_script for t/TEST and t/SMOKE, adding
TEST.PL and SMOKE.PL in t/.
Same results. Endless loop.
---------
Now, I know that in the MB version, you don't need to generate t/TEST,
it's done automatically. But since the old MakeMaker way had both, I
left them both in my conversion to M::B
Hopefully this helps.
This is under win32 (XP Pro), perl 5.8.4, A::T 1.21, and M::B 0.2609

Chris,
I've seen this happen before. Please post your entire Build.PL script.
Even better, take Ken's bug-reporting skeleton[1] and create a
reproducible example that we can try.

Even stranger.
If I run:
perl Build.PL -httpd C:\Development\Apache584\Apache.exe
perl Build test
it starts running SMOKE instead of TEST...
