I've recently installed mod_perl on my machine:

Code:

emerge dev-perl/mod_perl
emerge sys-devel/libperl

I also ran the ebuild command:

Code:

ebuild var/db/pkg/dev-perl/mod_perl-1.27-r2/mod_perl-1.27-r2.ebuild config

Amongst other things this gave me:

Code:

<IfDefine PERL>
LoadModule perl_module extramodules/libperl.so
</IfDefine>

and

Code:

<IfDefine PERL>
AddModule mod_perl.c
</IfDefine>

So I went off to find /etc/conf.d/apache and now have:

Code:

APACHE_OPTS="-D PERL"

However, when I stop/start the server (with /usr/sbin/apachectl) I can't access http://localhost/perl-status.

When I remove the IfDefines from the conf file, it loads the mod_perl module as I would expect.

From this I assume that /etc/conf.d/apache is being ignored by apachectl. I can't see anything in apachectl that refers to /etc/conf.d/apache either.

Have I missed something out, or done something wrong?

Oh, I'm such a spoon. That explains why it 'mysteriously' started working the next time I rebooted my laptop. *blush*
