[rt-users] Issues with LWP

I also ran into the same problem installing Apache
1.3.31 with mod_perl on Slackware 10.  Here's how I
resolved the issue.

Basically, an array (of eight websites) is used in the
live/apache-listing.t script to test the LWP
installation.  The fifth site:
"http://gump.covalent.net/jars/?C=N&O=D"
is unreachable so the test fails.

To fix things, you'll have to remove this line from
the array in the live/apache-listing.t script and
manually build LWP (libwww-perl).  You can find
apache-listing.t in your CPAN build directory (usually
in ~/.cpan/build or /tmp/.cpan/build).  Once you are
in .cpan/build, cd into the libwww-perl-5.XX/t/live
directory and you'll see the file.

After you make the changes, cd back into the
libwww-perl-5.XX directory and run:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

That should do it!

(p.s. Don't try to install LWP using CPAN.  It will
download a new copy of the module and you will lose
the changes.)
