      Hi Arif,

      Line 27 is the first line where the server tries to load a module. Based on this several questions arise.

      1) can you start and use the Apache server without running AppWrap?

      2) Is the Apache server install as a DSO? Because the error comes when Apache first tries to load a DSO module, one might suspect a) server not installed as a DSO or b) modules not where server thinks they are.

      Here is a link to the Mod_Perl guide to confirm Apache installation as a DSO: <http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html#Build_mod_perl_as_a_DSO_inside_the_Apache_Source_Tree_via_APACI>

      Look in your Apache source tree to see what is the path to the modules. There should be a directory having all the modules listed in AppWrap.conf lines 27-59. If you find the modules you can either change the path name in your file system, or edit the path in AppWrap.conf.

      3) If 1 and 2 are OK, can you verify that the proper modules are loaded? Use the command "./httpd -l" and look for the erroring module. I suspect you will find the problem in 1 or 2 above.

      Good luck. Let me know what you find.

      Russell
