Perl version

Hi,

I upgraded Perl v5.8.0 to 5.8.3 hoping that this would sort out the
corrupt attachments problem but it hasn’t. When I go to test
dependencies it says that I am still using v5.8.0 but it is definitely
the later version. I have tried re-configuring rt-3-0-9 without
success. I am still getting corrupt attachments. Can someone help with
this please? Do I have to recompile all the Perl modules?

Regards,
Kevin

I did the exact same thing! You need to recomply mod_perl and apache. This
should take care of the problem! I’m still having a slight problem with
attachments, but they do attach correctly now.

You only need to re-insall mod_perl, not apache. You don’t even
need the Apache source to re-compile mod_perl if you have apxs
support.

Hmmm…I did try to just recomply mod_perl, but it didn’t seem to fix the
problem, but when I did a make install on apache, it fixed it! Oh well such
is life!

Hello.
Full answer on topic “What should I do with Apache and mod_perl if I
upgraded perl?”:

You should rebuild mod_perl

If MP is DSO then you don’t need rebuild Apache.

NOTE WARNING SPECIAL FOR APACHE 1.x USERS DON’T SKIP THIS

If you use Apache1.x+mod_perl1.x you want mod_perl compiled static with
Apache. If you still have question “Why?” then you must read:

http://masonhq.com/resources/todo/view.html?id=200
http://www.bricolage.cc/docs/api/1.6/Bric/FAQ.html#Installation
http://www.apache-asp.org/faq.html#Error%3A%20no%20reb1d13fcf
Do you still have questions about DSO in Apache 1.x?

You don’t know how to do it. It’s not a big deal:

NOTE WARNING SPECIAL FOR APACHE 1.x USERS DON’T SKIP THIS

Now, MP2 can be compiled only as DSO and it’s fine, so you shouldn’t
recompile Apache2 only mod_perl.

			Best regards. Ruslan.
