Hello,

I want to iinstall a DSO installation of mod_perl using apxs

I do the following after untar the right mod_perl distribution (mod_perl 1.27).

$ gunzip <mod_perl-1.X.tar.gz | tar xvf -
$ cd mod_perl-1.X
$ perl Makefile.PL \
USE_APXS=1 \
WITH_APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs \
EVERYTHING=1 \
[..]
$ make
$ make test
$ make install

This seems to work probably, but i get the following error at the end of the installation proces (make install):

apxs:Error: Activation failed for custom
/usr/local/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file.
apxs:Error: At least one `LoadModule' directive already has to exist.
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/files/mod_perl-1.27/apaci'
make: *** [apxs_install] Error 2


Any idea what this error is & how to solve this problem

system variables are:

perl 5.6.1

Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) PHP/4.2.1 FrontPage/4.0.4.3 mod_ssl/2.8.9 OpenSSL/0.9.6d



thanks,
