Thank you for another combination which works.
What I am trying to figure out though, is what are the factors which make it so that this
combination (and the one I mentioned before) work, as opposed to others which don't ?
There are 3 parts, each with the following variables :
- the version of /that/ package (e.g. Apache httpd 2.2.x, or mod_perl 2.0.8)
- the architecture : 32-bit or 64-bit
- the compiler with which that package is compiled (VC 9, 10, 11 or gcc e.g.)
Which factors must match which, to have a chance of a working combination ?
I am quite sure that I tried together :
- an Apache 2.2.x from ApacheLounge (compiled with VC)
- Strawberry perl 5.18 32-bit
- mod_perl 2.0.8 32-bit no 64 strawberry from Steve Hay
and that I could never get this to work under Windows 2008 (64-bit).
That's why I switched to activeperl 5.18 and mod_perl 2.0.8 for ActivePerl, but
Strawberry-perl would have definitely been my preference, as it is what I usually
recommend nowadays to my customers, for various reasons.
There are just a bit too many factor combinations possible, to figure this out easily by
myself, so if someone has a clue as to what matters and what doesn't..
P.S. In my defense, I was trying to figure this out at a customer, under some time
pressure, by comparison between a working Linux Debian server (English), a working Windows
2003 Server 32-bit (German), and a non-working Windows 2008 Server 64-bit (Dutch), each
with its own variety of localised error messages, and each in a different geographical
location, so it may be that at some point I lost my usual calm and rational investigative
approach here..
Long live Linux Debian.
