Hello all,
I posted this just before everyone got all excited about the ORA conference
and I think it may have been overlooked. I'd really appreciate hearing from
anyone who can give me some clues regarding the back trace.
Cheers,
Greg.
I have recompiled mod_perl/apache with PERL_DEBUG=1
running
gdb httpd
followed by
run httpd -X
produces the following output:
startup.pl is attempting to modify the include path...
startup.pl is attempting to modify the include path...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, segmentation fault
0x807ca20 in perl_handler_ismethod()
(It is interesting that the "...modification..." line appears twice. I added
it (once only!) to the beginning of my startup.pl so that I could see if it
was being found.
It somehow seems to be being found more than I expected! [Ged has pointed
me at something in the guide that has a partial explanation for this...])
bt produces:

#1 0x807d2c4 in perl_call_handler()
#2 0x807ce36 in perl_run_stacked_handler()

rtld_fini=0x4000a610 <_dl_fini>, stack_end=0xbffffcdc) at
../sysdeps/generic/libc-start.c:90
If this makes sense to anybody please drop me a line, I've read all the way
through chapters 1-6 and I'm itching to try out some code... just can't get
the setup straight.
Thanks,
Greg
PS. Here is the config again, just to be sure:
Perl 5.6.0
Apache 1.3.12
mod_perl-1.24
ServerRoot is /usr/local/apache
underneath which I have created the lib/perl/Apache tree for holding
mod_perl modules,
and dutifully entered the required code in a file called Hello.pm in this
directory.
DocumentRoot is /usr/local/apache/htdocs
in httpd.conf I have added the following:
------------------------------
<IfModule mod_perl.c>
Include conf/perl.conf
</IfModule>
------------------------------
conf/perl.conf looks like this:
------------------------------
PerlRequire conf/startup.pl
PerlFreshRestart On
<Location /hello/world>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Hello
</Location>
-------------------------------
and startup.pl looks like this:
-------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
print "\n\tstartup.pl is attempting to modify the include path...\n\n";
BEGIN {
use Apache();
use lib Apache->server_root_relative('lib/perl');
}
use Apache::Registry
use Apache::Constants
use CGI qw(-compile :all);
use CGI::Carp;
1;
------------------------------
