[rt-users] mod_perl compiled statically: how?

[Rehan van der Merwe]

The installation of static mod_perl as set out below works great, but how
would I go about installing mod_perl statically, but keeping DSO support for
other modules that I would wish to install later?

I looked Apache-Toolbox over briefly.  I tried it the hard way instead.
Life story.  I will give it a try next time.  I did learn a lot though.

I finally stummbled upon this good web site:
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/guide/install/index.html

Which gives very great detail on installing mod_perl with this one final
jewel:


% tar xzvf apache_x.x.x.tar.gz
  % tar xzvf mod_perl-x.xx.tar.gz
  % cd mod_perl-x.xx
  % perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=../apache_x.x.x/src \
    DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1
  % make && make test && make install
  % cd ../apache_x.x.x
  % make install

This builds Apache statically with mod_perl, installs Apache under the
default /usr/local/apache tree and mod_perl into the site_perl hierarchy
of your existing Perl installation. All in one step.


This really worked.  I'm done .  Good night.
