Mailing List Archive: problem with paths?

Hoping someone can point out the error. I can't even get going with
ApacheDBI-0.87
Why are ApacheDBI modules installed into
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Apache/ when mod_perl is installed to
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/Apache/ ?
I am using stock (RPM) of perl, rest I'm building by hand.
Running the eg/startup.pl gives the same output as my own startup.pl...

- debug output,
[root@orion eg]# cd /usr/local/src/ApacheDBI-0.87/eg/
[root@orion eg]# perl startup.pl
Can't locate object method "module" via package "Apache" at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/Apache/DBI.pm line 202.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at startup.pl line 11.

- output of perl -v,
This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for i386-linux

- output of perl -V,

I think you misunderstand Apache::DBI and the role of a startup.pl script...

you can't successfully run startup.pl by itself - is has to be called by
Apache using the
PerlRequire /path/to/startup.pl
which is even stated at the top of the script :)

I think if you try adding the directive to httpd.conf you will find all is
well...
