Question: when will mod_perl be available for Apache 24? Is anybody using it (see below), and what problems (if any) were there? The method outlined below may or may not work - I haven't tried it. Any comments or suggestions? Background: I wanted to update to Apache 24/FreeBSD 9.2. Everything went fine until I hit mod_perl. The current Port Makefile as of Fri 01 Aug 2014 is marked as: .if ${APACHE_VERSION} > 22 BROKEN= Does not build with apache24 .endif Apparently mod_perl is currently not compatible with Apache24. The perl-modperl mailing list has a posting: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/perl-modperl/201402.mbox/%3CCADED=K4p2HFc6K1San3MPmm8vZ+gwT5rsiJ5sAMVLRV7z5z-gA@mail.gmail.com%3E This has the following information: Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2014 15:36:18 GMT > The Debian project is shipping mod_perl with httpd24 support > based on http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/perl/modperl/branches/httpd24/. An update on the state of things regarding httpd-2.4 support in mod_perl: We are working hard to get this done and are 99% of the way there. Both volunteers and volunteers' time is limited, though, so progress has been slow. A lot of work has taken place in the httpd24 branch, and as Dominic says, some Linux distros are already shipping that. There is also a posting on how to abuse the mod_perl2 port, download the source from the SVN repository and force mod_perl2 to compile it: https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=46523
