I just did this and didn't have a problem at all. First, download and expand the Apache source tree. Then:
# perl -MCPAN -e shell
Then enter install Bundle::CPAN. This should take care of the perl upgrade for you.
As to mod_perl, install Bundle::Apache will take care of this (along with several other packages). At some point, it'll ask you for the location of your Apache source tree and whether you want it to build httpd for you. Answer appropriately, and you should be good to go.
If things get any worse, I'll have to ask you to stop helping me. |
