Installing mod_perl question

[Chris H]

Hi,

We really need mod_perl on one of our cPanel servers for a legacy website that unfortunately uses it. I know this was originally in EA3, but was removed in EA4?

What is the situation with EA4? If I just yum install mod_perl will I live to tell the tale? (the only site on this server will be this one site - so not bothered about mod_perl causing shared user security issues)

Thanks!

Hi Chris,

There's currently no support for Mod_Perl in EasyApache 4. It wasn't included with EasyApache 4 because up until recently it was not supported with Apache version 2.4. You'd need to build it as a custom package using the instructions on the following page:

ea4.ninja

Or, consider opening a feature request for it's inclusion with EA4 at:

Thank you.
