Dear all,
firts of all, I have already looked up this error on the net and I
have found some, quite obvious, hints ⁽¹⁾ but they unfortunately don't
help.
The problem is Apache::AuthDBI uses method is_initial_req from the
Apache2::RequestUtil package but this method is not recognized as a
method of the Apache2::RequestUtil package.
Actually, Apache::AuthDBI does *require* Apache2::RequestUtil, at
least for mod_perl2, which is what I am using.
The offendine line is n. 217 in AuthDBI.pm:
216 return MP2 ? Apache2::Const::OK() : Apache::Constants::OK()
217 unless $r->is_initial_req; # only the first internal request
When I use DBI for authentication my Apache yelds:
Can't locate object method "is_initial_req" via package "Apache::AuthDBI"
at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache/AuthDBI.pm line 217
So I tried to call the method explicitly, adding to AuthDBI.pm:
use Apache2::RequestUtil qw(is_initial_req);
and/or:
unless $r->Apache2::RequestUtil::is_initial_req;
but in this case Apache said:
Can't locate object method "is_initial_req" via package
"Apache2::RequestUtil" at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache/AuthDBI.pm line 217
Last note: I have been using my same code and DBI authentication for
years with mod_perl1 and everything was OK.
Other information:
- I'm running on Debian
- Apache 2.2.22
- mod_perl2 2.0.7
- DBI 1.11
Have you any idea?
Thank you very much in advance!
Andrea
