[warning] result:The above paragraph clearly explains the issue. You are trying
[ error] You are running the test suite under user 'root'.
Apache cannot spawn child processes as 'root', therefore
we attempt to run the test suite with user 'nobody' (99:99).
The problem is that the path (including all parent directories):
/root/mod_perl- 2.0.3/t
must be 'rwx' by user 'nobody', so Apache can read and write under that
path.
There are several ways to resolve this issue. One is to move and
rebuild the distribution to '/tmp/' and repeat the 'make test'
phase. The other is not to run 'make test' as root (i.e. building
under your /home/user directory).
You can test whether some directory is suitable for 'make test' under
'root', by running a simple test. For example to test a directory
'/root/mod_perl-2.0.3/t', run:
% "/usr/bin/perl" -Mlib=/root/mod_perl-2.0.3/Apache-Test/lib
-MApache::TestRun -e 'eval { Apache::TestRun::run_root_fs_test(99, 99,
q[/root/mod_perl-2.0.3/t]) }';
