Greetings all,
This is an extremely broad question, but I was wondering if any of you
knew, off the top of your head, of any circumstances in which the
generation of custom response codes would be ignored. Say...
A subroutine is called in the case of an error that logs the warning to the
log file, kicks off an e'mail to the site admin, and then generates a
custom response page. Very basically, it looks like this:
sub error_out {
my($self,$error) = @_;
warn "ERROR: $error\n\n";
# using Net::SMTP to send e'mail, which is does just fine
my($r) = Apache->request();
$r->err_headers_out->{'error_title'} = $error_title;
$r->err_headers_out->{'error'} = $error;
# /Error is a custom handler defined in apache conf file
$r->custom_response(SERVER_ERROR, "/Error");
return SERVER_ERROR;
}
It logs to the database, then sends out the e'mail, but just... skips...
the custom error page. What's odd, is that in some cases, it works like a
champ.
THIS WORKS:
my($error) = q{Doh!};
sub method {
do something or return undef;
}
my($text) = method() or $self->error_out($error);
THIS DOESN'T WORK:
sub method {
my($error) = q{Doh!};
do something or $self->error_out($error);
}
I realize this is NOT enough info, but not knowing what IS enough, I'm
hoping, more than anything, for ideas, and questions that lead me in the
right direction.
FWIW: I'm looking to understand what's going on, and through that find a
fix, rather than find a quick fix and move on.
