Re: Can't locate Plack/Handler/Apache2.pm

Hi Kevin,
Just build a new Centos5.
Followed the install process and came to a problem using perl 5.8.8
component HTML::TextWrapper has to be manually intalled on cpan because of two dependancies.
component Text::Wrapper fails because of perl version

here it is maybe to update requirements or documentation...

cpan> install Text::Wrapper

Actually on centos5 perl 5.8.8 is installed using yum. But there is
a cpan library with is not working with versions older than 5.10 so
i had to download and compile 5.14.

RT should install just fine against 5.8.8, but obviously a newer perl
is nicer to have an easier to maintain.

So after the cpan and dependancies nightmare not sure if any package
is still pointing to the old perl...

mod_perl is compiled into apache and judging from your error messages
is clearly pointing to 5.8.8

The system is going to have just 30 requests a month or so. So I do
not think using cgi would be a problem.

fastcgi, not cgi.
You can read about the two fastcgi solutions (mod_fastcgi and
mod_fcgid) in docs/web_deployment.pod

The point is that I installed perl version 5.14 and compiled rt eith
that also installed the modules under that version. But I do not
know why seems that apache or whatever has the old path.
Tried to modify (even copy) the path contents to old locations but
more errors rise..

Did you compile apache/mod_perl with 5.14 or are you using vendor
packages that still point to the 5.8 install?

If you want to use your own perl build, fastcgi will be easier.
