no need to replace the preloading of
Apache::RegistryLoader with Apache::Registry - you can (and probably should)
preload them both.
the discussion on this issue started a few months ago -
just check the archives at
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/epigone/modperl
- I'm not sure of the title of the various threads, but there have been a
few. I don't believe that RegistryLoader was ever explicitly
discussed...
at any rate, it was a rather complecated issue that I
don't fully understand - just trust that the current cvs fixes the problem
:)

Subject: RE: Apache::RegistryLoader side effectI preload Apache::Registry, replacing RegistryLoader, and it works indentically. Interesting. Can you point me to where in the archives this is doc'ed? I searched using Apache::RegistryLoader, but didn't find this specifically. I'd like to learn what I can about it.And I'll check out the current version. Thanks for the tip!E-----Original Message-----

Subject: RE: Apache::RegistryLoader side effectthis problem with Apache::Registry is well documented in the archives - I really didn't test it to see if it affected RegistryLoader as well, but it sounds the same...try using the current cvs version - it should have the problem licked. If you don't want to use a development version, try preloading Apache::Registry along with RegistryLoader and see if the problem disappears...HTH--Geoff-----Original Message-----

Subject: Apache::RegistryLoader side effectI have a plain-old CGI script configured to be loaded with Apache::Registry<Location /cgi-bin/myscript.pl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options ExecCGI
PerlSendHeader On
</Location>In this configuration, I see the BEGIN block of my script get executed twice per child process. If I add the line "PerlModule Apache::RegistryLoader" to the httpd.conf file, this gets cut down to once per child process (which is what I want!) Is this behavior documented anywhere? I have been scouring Doub's book and other online resources for 2 days, and don't understand this behavior.(An aside: All the docs talk about using "Apache::RegistryLoader->new->handler(...)", and that works to make BEGIN execute only once (I even tried it myself to be sure). But nothing about using RegistryLoader the way I am. Am I doing something horribly wrong?)Thanks.E
