Thanks Tim and all,
my gathering is that the sample script on page 146 of the Eagle:
- needed a 'use Apache::Constants(:common);' line
- needed a 'return OK;' line at EOF
- had an 'unless' that should've been an 'if'.
for-the-record, I did check www.modperl.com looking for an
errata.
Doug? Lincoln? I mean, it's one of the *simple* scripts, I do LOVE the
book, but I guess I'll have to trust this list a hunderd times more than
the book.
And, unless it was all my mistake, for some unbeknownst reason,
a few
marks down for O'Reilly technical reviewers :p
