Therefore you may find several +CPAN directories containing Apache-Test releases. The best way to find +the latest release is to use http://search.cpan.org/. + +If you have a question or you want to submit a bug report or make a +contribution, please do not email individual authors, but send an +email to the test-dev <at> httpd.apache.org mailing list. This list is +moderated, so unless you are subscribed to it, your message will have +to be approved first by a moderator. Therefore please allow some time +(up to a few days) for your post to propagate to the list. + +If 'make test' fails to start, with an error message: + + !!! no test server configured, please specify an httpd or apxs or put + either in your PATH. For example: t/TEST -httpd /path/to/bin/httpd + +or similar, please don't submit a bug report, since this is a user +error, not a bug in Apache-Test. Instead, do what the error message +suggests; Apache-Test needs to know where it can find Apache and other +components. If you have apxs installed you can run the test suite via: + + % t/TEST -apxs /path/to/bin/apxs + +or if you set the APXS environment variable, via make: + + % APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs make test + +If you don't have 'apxs', tell Apache-Test where your httpd can be +found: + + % t/TEST -httpd /path/to/bin/httpd + +or via the APACHE environment variable: + + % APACHE=/path/to/bin/httpd make test + +*** CPAN Testers *** + +CPAN Testers using CPANPLUS and running under 'root' are required to +update their perl installation to have IPC::Run 0.78 or higher. Please +do not post failure reports unless you have this prerequisite +satisfied. It has nothing to do with Apache-Test itself, and needed +for CPANPLUS to flush the STDERR and STDOUT streams at the right time, +allowing you to skip the test suite if the conditions aren't suitable +for its execution. + +*** Apache C modules bug reports *** + +It's now possible to easily create tarballs with self-contained bug +reports for Apache modules in C. Geoff developed and maintains the +skeleton: + + http://perl.apache.org/~geoff/bug-reporting-skeleton-apache.tar.gz + +So next time you want to send a reproducable bug report for some C module, +grab that tarball, put your code in and submit it to the relevant list. |
