MasonX::ApacheHandler::WithCallbacks 0.98 perl 5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi, on Debian ---- CPAN.pm: Going to build D/DW/DWHEELER/MasonX-ApacheHandler-WithCallbacks-0.98.tar.gz Can't locate Apache/TestMM.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8.0 /usr/share/perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at Makefile.PL line 5. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 5. Obviously I don't have Apache::TestMM, but for some reason CPAN doesn't fetch it automatically. I note that Apache::TestMM did not install initially on Debian because httpd isn't in $PATH (in fact they call the apache binary 'apache' instead of 'httpd', which I'll agree is moronic). After installing Apache::TestMM, *** root mode: changing the fs ownership to 'nobody' (65534:65534) /usr/sbin/httpd -X -d /root/.cpan/build/MasonX-ApacheHandler-WithCallbacks-0.98/t -f /root/.cpan/build/MasonX-ApacheHandler-WithCallbacks-0.98/t/conf/httpd.conf -DAPACHE1 -DPERL_USEITHREADS Syntax error on line 13 of /root/.cpan/build/MasonX-ApacheHandler-WithCallbacks-0.98/t/conf/extra.conf: using Apache/1.3.27 waiting for server to start: .Invalid command 'PerlSetVar', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration !!! Oh, it needs the mod_perl-based httpd (apache-perl on Debian). And so changing the symlink, it finally installs. :)

I'll bet that CPAN does fetch it automatically, but I should probably test for it in Makefile.PL and exit if it isn't installed. If it can't find your apache binary, that's something you should probably report for the Apache::Test module distribution (which includes Apache::TestMM). Show quoted text

Again, that sounds like an Apache::Test issue. I suggest you report it to them. Regards, David -- David Wheeler AIM: dwTheory david@kineticode.com ICQ: 15726394 http://kineticode.com/ Yahoo!: dew7e Jabber: Theory@jabber.org Kineticode. Setting knowledge in motion.[sm]

I've fixed this in CVS. When I release 0.99 (probably in a week or so), it will be much smarter about handling situations where Apache::Test is not installed. CPAN.pm and CPANPLUS will install Apache::Test for you and then MasonX::ApacheHandler::WithCallbacks will successfully install, too. BTW, to get Apache::Test to use the right Apache binary, you should set either the APXS or the APACHE environment variable before your run the CPAN shell: % export APACHE=/usr/sbin/apache-perl % sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell This will force Apache::Test to use your Apache binary. Thanks for the report! David
