[ome-users] Fedora Core 4 Mod_Perl installation (Response 2)

Thu Oct 20 14:38:31 BST 2005

I cut and pasted my script result. (I chosen all the default options).

I also attached all the conf files you requested. Please take a look. I appreciate all your reponses so far..

Do i have to upgrade mod_perl to solve the problem. or  did it work with 2.0.1?

Thank you

Apache Setup

(All verbose information logged in /var/tmp/OME/install/ApacheConfigTask.log)

OME Apache web server configuration is a critical part of your OME install.

OME's web interface, remote clients and image server all use this

infrastructure to communicate. If you are unsure of a particular question,

please choose the default as that will be more than adequate for most

people.

Configure Apache server? [y/n]: y

Use OME Apache-2.x configuration for developers? [y/n]: y

Install image server (omeis) ? [y/n]:

Apache cgi-bin directory : [/var/www/cgi-bin/]:

Install data server (omeds) ? [y/n]:

Install web server ? [y/n]:

Copy index.html to : [/var/www/html]:

Use HTML Templates configuration for developers ? [y/n]:

Look for HTML Templates in: [/OME/html/Templates]:

Apache configuration:

Configure Apache?: yes

Developer configuration: yes

Server restart?: yes

Install OME servers:

Images (omeis): yes

Data (omeds): yes

Web: yes

Apache directories:

httpd binary: /usr/sbin/httpd

apachectl binary: /usr/sbin/apachectl

DocumentRoot: /var/www/html

cgi-bin: /var/www/cgi-bin

Web-UI HTML Templates:

Developer configuration: no

HTML Templates directory: /OME/html/Templates

Are these values correct ? [y/n]:

Apache httpd.conf does not have an Include directive for "/OME/conf/httpd.ome.conf"

Apache's mod_perl seems to be turned off in httpd.conf.

fix "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" ? [y/n]:

What version did yum update to?

My version is:
[igg at nialglin1 ~]$ yum list mod_perl
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Installed Packages
mod_perl.i386 2.0.1-1.fc4 
installed

I've tried to upgrade this further, but no banana. Apparently 
there's a 2.0.2, but my yum at least doesn't upgrade that far.

To make sure that mod_perl is running, the installer puts a file 
called mod_perl_test.pl in the same directory as serve.pl (the OME 
entry point), then tries to retrieve it using a URL.
If you answered 'n' to the "Use Apache2 configuration for developers" 
question (or used the default), then serve.pl and mod_perl_test.pl 
should be in /OME/perl2. Otherwise they will be in src/perl2/ 
relative to the folder containing the install.pl you ran.

If you go to this URL: http://localhost/perl2/mod_perl_test.pl using 
your browser, presumably you get a 404.
Do you get any error messages when you do:
sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl restart
How about when right after that you say:
sudo tail /var/log/httpd/error_log
and
sudo tail /var/log/httpd/access_log

Probably we would need all of your httpd conf files (/etc/httpd/conf/ 
httpd.conf and /OME/conf/httpd2*) to diagnose this.

As a brief rant, I'd like to point out that the mod_perl project has 
graciously provided us with an abundance of ways to activate, 
configure, and use mod_perl. At last count, this was three mutually 
incompatible mechanisms. The code changes necessary for OME to 
support FC 4 included this third "new and improved" way to accomplish 
the exact same thing. It could very well be that a fourth "new an
improved" mechanism has been dreamed up despite the so-called 
"stable" 2.0 release. Or it could simply be due to a mis- 
configuration in one or more of the configuration files.
