Re: Problem compiling mod_perl on AIX

Hello,
No problem at all.

Sorry, this is indeed a typo.

I can test the new release when you are done preparing it.

The AIX system perl is 5.28 (AIX 7.1 and 7.2). You can get a more recent version from the AIX Toolbox, but I preferred the system installed version.

Bye

I suggest to add a note in the INSTALL to:

perl Makefile.PL ....

  LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

Simple install on AIX:

 You will need GNU make to compile mod_perl. The AIX make does not work.
 If you have installed GNU make from the AIX Toolbox:

 % export MAKE="/opt/freeware/bin/gmake"
 % perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs
  % gake && gake test
  % gake install

Simple config:

  LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
  #PerlModule Apache::compat
  # your config comes here
-----[./INSTALL]--------

Thanks for the patch, and apologies for the slow response. I want to include this patch in the next release, which I intend to start making in the next few days, however, is there a typo above?: Should this:

gake && gake test
gake install

be this:

gmake && gmake test
gmake install

?
