I'm not sure this is the best place to ask about this problem, and this is my first posting to this mailing list. I have already asked the freebsd-questions mailing list about this, but have received no replies as of this writing. I'm running FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #0: Thu Jun 9 09:25:05 EDT 2011 on i386 and I rebuilt all my ports from source shortly after the upgrade. I got a weird error when I tried to start apache2 (using "% apachectl -t" first): [Mon Jun 13 10:16:15 2011] [error] syntax error at (eval 21) line 1, near "require Apache2::Const -"\n [Mon Jun 13 10:16:15 2011] [error] Can't load Perl module Apache2::Const -compile => ':common' for server localhost:80, exiting... The Perl module in question is present here: freebsd% ls -l /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.0/mach/Apache2/Const.pm -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 25924 Jun 10 17:08 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.0/mach/Apache2/Const.pm The httpd.conf file is unchanged and was working since from before the upgrade. In the /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf file are these lines among several hundred other lines: LoadModule perl_module libexec/apache22/mod_perl.so Include etc/apache22/Includes/*.conf The only reference to the Apache2::Const module is in an Apache config include file: PerlModule "Apache2::Const -compile => ':common'" I have these FreeBSD ports installed among several hundred others: perl-5.14.0 apache-2.2.19 ap22-mod_perl2-2.0.5,3 Neither of these two commands gave any output at all: freebsd% perl -e 'use Apache2::Const qw( :common ); freebsd% perl -M'Apache2::Const -compile => qw(:common)' -e 1; This command gave one line of output: freebsd% perl -MApache2::Const -e 'print $Apache2::Const::VERSION, "\n"'; 2.000005 The above problem did not occur before the upgrade when I was running: perl-5.12.3 apache-2.2.17_1 ap22-mod_perl2-2.0.4_2,3 I don't know how to debug this problem. No log files in /var/log were changed by running the apachectl(8) command and there have been no new lines added to /var/log/httpd-error.log since I rebooted and shut down apache2 on June 9th as part of the upgrade. Any and all ideas welcome.
