I am using RH 5.9.7 mod_perl should include PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS, because Apache::DBI uses it and that is a common combination. The change is something like this: %build perl Makefile.PL \ USE_APXS=1 \ WITH_APXS=/usr/sbin/apxs \ PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS \ EVERYTHING = 1
while building my own rpm I found that PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS is disabled by redhat in the mod_perl-1.16-rh.patch Changelog says: * Thu Sep 03 1998 Preston Brown <pbrown> - disabled stacked_handlers. They still seem busted! is this still true ?
This was off for a long time because STACKED_HANDLERS had problems when mod_perl was run as a DSO. These problems seem to have been corrected, so STACKED_HANDLERS will be enabled in mod_perl for the next release.
