This is my problem. I couldn't get custom subroutines to load from global.asa using GlobalPackage. When I go to _use_ it the compiler per the documentation complains that it isn't there.

The only reason I am using this method is because in our previous implemetation this is how they, the developers of our app, did it. And it worked. It just alarmed me that when I upgraded things broke. I made sure everything including the non-mod_perl specific modules tested out without error. My intension is ensure the most stable system as possible of course. Then I began to worry if it was my or Apache::ASP wasn't stable. Bottom line is I have been looking for the reason this no longer works as it did in the previous version of Apache::ASP (2.19) we where using. I looked through the release notes and nothing caught my eye, though. Maybe I will just take your suggestion and create the TYPHOON.pm and load that. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ----- End forwarded message ----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
