Apologies for the very long delay in responding to this. I hope to
release 2.0.13 soon, and have finally spotted this PR in Github. (As
Ed already commented on the PR, the Github repository is just a
readonly mirror of our SVN repository. Issues should ideally be raised
via rt.cpan.org, as per https://metacpan.org/dist/mod_perl/contribute)
I'm happy to include the simple install instructions, but like Ed I
also question the prerequisites.
On Windows the only prerequisite is Win32::Process. Extra tests are
run if CGI and/or LWP are also installed, but they're not required.
Compress::Zlib is not required either, and its absence doesn't even
seem to prevent to tests from being run.
Prerequisites are already documented in the README file. Currently,
only Apache and Perl are listed. If anything else is required then
that would be the place to add that part.

This works on Debian Linux 11.2, although with a number of warnings,
but the end result is a successful compilation with a functioning
Apache2 module.
I submitted a pull request for the INSTALL file to include specific
"simple instructions" for Debian Linux 11.2:
Added instructions for Debian Linux 11.2 #4
https://www,github.com/apache/mod_perl/pull/4
Thanks so very much for all the excellent and important work you're
doing in maintaining and updating mod_perl2. (The same goes for
everyone else who's been contributing to this Apache2 module.)

With the exception of t/filter/in_bbs_inject_header.t, all tests pass
with perl-5.34.0 under OmniOS/illumos.
On FreeBSD, there's this additional failure:

Still waiting to see the necessary votes from other committers before
I can release this.
FWIW it's all good here (Windows 10) with httpd 2.4.51 / perl 5.34.0.

I expect that mod_perl2 will be around for a long time. I use it
for a lot of web projects, but most of them are for internal systems.
With Perl 7 on the horizon, there could very well also be at least a
slight increase in interest.

I would like to second that.
mod_perl has a lot of value to offer in terms of power and flexibility.
I certainly hope the hype on some other programming languages will
falter and developers will look at mod_perl as a strong API backend for
example.
I would like to take this occasion to wish you all a great end of year
festivities and express my gratitude to Steve Hay and all others
contributing. This is an awesome piece of software!
Kind regards,
Jacques Deguest

I would say hello to modperl too.
I once used modperl for an auth handler which worked nice.
That's to say, someone wants to download a static file from Apache, he/she
must pass a string for authentication.
And this auth can be made easy in modperl's auth stage (IIRC).
Thanks & Happy new year.

Absolutely not dead!
I tinkered a little bit with some non-mod_perl.
(just some new stuff, never stopped what was running.)
I simply decided, why the hell am I doing this?
Ditched all that waste of time and running all mod_perl again.
So if it's good enough to return to after experimenting a little away
from it and not happy with that, I would say that that is should have
many years of life ahead!
Thanks for all the work of keeping things going.
Just because there isn't a ton of activity on the mailing list doesn't
really signify perhaps much more than it's easy to pick up. :-}

Hi.
"> I was thinking this project has died."
I would sincerely hope not.
At least for my company, mod_perl is still a vital and effective piece of our software
development and infrastructure.
Many thanks to Steve Hay (and many others) for keeping perl and mod_perl alive and well.
Judging by the perl dev list, there also seems to be this past year a definite regain of
enthousiasm about perl itself, which I hope in time will communicate to mod_perl (*).
And many wishes to the same people for keeping themselves safe, alive and well in the New
Year too.

I am surprised to see mod_perl is still in active development.
