Apache, Mod_Perl Upgrade
After much work, I have installed perl 5.8.7 with all the modules I
need. I had to upgrade to Apache 2.0.54 from 2.0.40 to be able to
install mod_perl2. The new server seems to be working. I still have not
gotten anything running. I'm stuck with a problem with mod_php and the
server just not starting. However, my plesk control server is still
working. Not sure how...
[root@bwmvdedicated modules]# /etc/init.d/httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 1 of
/usr/local/apache2/conf.d/php.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so into server:
/usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp4.so: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory
File is deffinitly not there. Any help or direction would be great.

This is completely the wrong perl as you can see from your
"/usr/local/lib/perl5/....".

Have you tried to install mp2 using this directory before then I would
suggest that you remove it and unzip mp2.tar.gz once again maybe there's
something left from your last installation try?

I am currently using these install notes. I have run into another

No. Your performance will be increased using a so called proxy-setup:
- - Make your frontend server as light weight as possible (don't load php
and mod-perl)
- - Use mod-rewrite to forward requests to dynamic pages to your mod-perl
enabled server in the back running on port 81 or even you want to on
another IP-adress
- From the client-side it looks like you are only running one apache.
There's enough information in the docs and mail-archives else get one of
the great mod-perl books.

Thanks so much for everyones help. I think I will run the apache 2.0.40
for all of the main site and everything. Would it be a performance issue
to run both at the same time? Also, I will need to share variables (or
at least a cookie or something for authorized users) between the two
servers/scripts. Is this possible? I will need to auth a user from one
server (using PHP/Mambo)... and only allow those authed users to use
this second server. I am very open to suggestions. I have both Perl
5.8.0 and 5.8.7 installed. Both seems to still be working fine. The main
system (when just using perl from the $PATH) is now using 5.8.7. Perl
5.8.0 seems to still be working and installed. I wouldn't need mod_php
on the second server... at least night right away... so that is not an
issue. Is it best to install into /opt? I didn't do this for Perl.. nor
the new apache, however I removed all apache2 files I could find with
'locate'. I prefer to use RPMs... however the main httpd server is an
RPM... 2.0.40. Also, I can have many IPs... so I would maybe not run on
port 81... just run it on 80 on a different IP. Thanks in advance.

To prevent this, when you install httpd, use the --with-perl option to
./configure i.e.
./configure --prefix=/opt/httpd --with-perl=/opt/perl/bin/perl ....

Phil,
I had installed perl to /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7 in a previous
exercise. The main system perl is supposed to be 5.8.0. This issues
seems to be lingering around from that install? I only removed the
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7 and all related files I could find for perl
5.8.7 with locate. I will try your advice with changing the apxs file.
Any other notes? Thanks for your message.

Apparently apxs is using the wrong perl.
You might change the #! line at the top of it,
update your path to have /opt/perl/bin before /usr/local/bin,
or rename your system perl temporarily.

Because of the Apache API changes. 2.0.40 wasn't of a release quality (I
think it was still beta or something)

Actually from the README,
*** Prerequisites ***
Apache:
Dynamic mod_perl (DSO): Apache 2.0.47 - 2.0.54.
Static mod_perl: Apache 2.0.51 - 2.0.54.
Newer Apache versions may work with this version of mod_perl. If
not, the svn version likely will, which can be obtained from:
http://perl.apache.org/download/source.html#Development_mod_perl_2_0_Source_Distribution
2.0.40 IS TOO OLD
though it might work if you are lucky, I forget exactly why we upped the
minium httpd version for dynamic.

I not sure if there have been API changes since 2.0.40 and 2.0.54 but
compiling mod-perl-2.x with apache 2.0.54 and use it with 2.0.40 this
will certainly lead to very strange situations you.
As in the message before there's nothing wrong when running 2.0.40 if
your plesk system needs it and install your own apache-2.0.54 and run it
on a different port (e.g. 81).
As already said before als compiling Apache-2.0.x is straight forward
and nothing you could not manage without reading the bundled
INSTALL-File(s).
Default-Install-Procedure:
- ------------------8<------------------
tar xzvf stable.tar.gz
cd perl-5.8.7/
sh ./Configure -de -Dprefix=/opt/myperl
make
make test
su
make install
exit
cd ..
tar xjvf httpd-2.0.54.tar.bz2
cd httpd-2.0.54
./configure --prefix=/opt/myapache
make
make install
vi /opt/myapache/conf/httpd.conf # search for Listen and set it to 81
cd ..
cd mod_perl-2.0.1/
/opt/myperl/bin/perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/opt/myapache/bin/apxs
make
make test
make install
vi /opt/myapache/conf/httpd.conf # Add LoadModule perl_module
modules/mod_perl.so
/opt/myapache/bin/apachectl start
- ------------------8<------------------
I've timed it and it took my now exactly 20 Minutes to get a setup with:
- - perl 5.8.7
- - httpd-2.0.54
- - mod-perl 2.0.1
When it comes to php I have no idea but I think its also that straight
forward. As I've always said I'm not a friend of those rpm's and it
really does take that long to get a running system. At least less time
than it took you:
- - find what's going wrong with your installation
- - work with ancient software like apache-2.0.40 causing you headache
because you are runing it long standing fixed bugs

I went back to my 2.0.40 install of Apache. The 2.0.54 was not playing
nice with plesk. How do I update the @INC path and/or mod_perl for the
new perl 5.8.7? I try using CPAN with install Bundle::Apache and no go.
Any ideas?
