Mailing List Archive: Embperl Install error...

Dear.

I have installed mod_perl 1.21 with Apache 1.3.9
and HTML::Embperl 1.2.1 with source compile.

but, my embperl package doesn't work proerly.
Everytime accessing to my embperl script with web browser.
Apache got 'internal server error' and cannot handle my
Embperl script.

The error message in httpd_error.log is like this...

[Mon Apr 3 14:13:23 2000] [error] Can't load
'/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd/auto/HTML/Embperl/Embperl.so'
for module HTML::Embperl:

Undefined symbol "PL_sv_undef" at /usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/DynaLoader.pm
line 169.

--> I can't understand this message. what does mean PL_sv ??

PL_sv_undef is a part of the internal Perl C-API. That means that your
programm loader cannot load Embperl.so, because if can not resolve all
symbols inside.

Mostly this is because your Perl/Apache/mod_perl/Embperl does not fit
together.

I would try to recompile mod_perl and Embperl from newly extracted directory
and make sure that no other versions are installed on your system.
