[rt-users] At apache start - Can't locate object method "boot" via package "mod_perl"...

[Greg.Hering at bench.com]

Somebody yesterday said mod_perl wasn't loaded.
I got the same error with the default Apache 2 web server in RedHat9.
Some of the CPAN scripts made tests for Apache 1.3 also, so it was just not worth it to me.  Do you really need Apache 2.0?

If you want it done right you have to compile it yourself!

I believe the path of least resistance is 

Apache 1.3.27    http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd
mod_perl 1.27	http://perl.apache.org/dist

according to instructions here: http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/getwet.html

This works!

Greg

Here's one for you folks.  I'm trying to get rt running on Gentoo.  I might be
needing a module.  I'm using apache 2 with perl 1.99 and mysql.  This error
message is delivered when trying to start apache.

 * Starting apache2...

**This is from apache2/error_log so you know a bit more about what's going on:
[notice] Apache/2.0.45 (Gentoo/Linux)mod_perl/1.99_08 Perl/v5.8.0 configured --
resuming normal opertions

I confirmed that all the files mentioned are where they claim to be.  I start
apache2 with the "-D PERL" option.  I'm not sure what else to tell you folks,
I've been working on this furiously for a few days now, but don't know much
about perl.

Thanks,
