Building mod_perl 2.0.5
Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade some 64-bit Linux servers and though I'd upgrade Perl as
well. I've built the latest Apache (2.0.21), Perl (5.14.2) and mod_perl
(2.0.5), but mod_perl fails three tests:
api/request_rec
filter/out_str_reverse
err_headers_out
When I went ahead and installed this on a test server, some stuff worked but
some custom authentication handlers failed.
The last time I built everything from source I used Perl 5.10.1 and mod_perl
2.0.4, I believe. Is there a recommended version of Perl to use when
building mod_perl?
Thanks,
Dan

In that case, you could run 'make test TEST_VERBOSE=1', and then post the t/log/error_logs content here. Also the httpd configuration options. Last time I worked with 64-bit I had to compile Perl with the -fPIC option. mod_perl though should fail to build without Perl configured like that however.

I'm sorry, I meant to say I'm building Apache 2.2.21, mod_perl 2.0.5., perl
5.14.2 I wanted to upgrade Apache because of some of the recent security
holes found.

That version of Apache is the legacy 2.0.x branch. Any chance you can
upgrade to 2.2.x? Some of the authentication handling changed IIRC.
