You guys Rock!! take 2
I really didn't want to try and "force" any of the packages if I could
help it. The install guide listed here definitely helped out a LOT!
I started over fresh with it. I did have some bugs, but it was related
to something (some process or script) modifying my hostname from what it
is supposed to be, to "-s" sometime during the processing of
apache+mod_perl, -and- when running cpan stuff. Bizarre, and I've not
figured out yet -what- was doing it. In short, I opened another
terminal and kept monitoring the hostname and changed it back just
before any script needed it to be correct.
The rest of this install guide was very good and much easier to read,
more detailed, etc. Thank you for pointing it out. My book arrived
today too, but I've not had to crack it, . . .
. . . and I -now- have a functioning slash site.
Thank you again.
