Using the POST2GET snippet was interferring. I thought I had turned it off
when trying Lergon's suggestion. I must not have.
As for the actual code. . .I copied it exactly as Lergon's and it works. I
know what was different, but I swear that what I had was taken verbatim from
mod_perl documentation.
Just for academic purposes.
I had something like
sub handler{
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
my $r = Apache->request(shift);
&main($r);
return OK;
}
sub main{
my $r = shift;
my $q = Apache::Request->new(shift, DISABLE_UPLOADS => 0, POST_MAX
=> 204800);
blah blah blah
}
Per Lergon's code I just simplified it to
sub handler{
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
my $q = Apache::Request->new(shift, DISABLE_UPLOADS => 0, POST_MAX
=> 204800);
&main($q);
return OK;
}
sub main{
my $q = shift;
blah blah blah
}
To boot, I was using the POST2GET module found at
<http://perl.apache.org/guide/snippets.html#Reusing_Data_from_POST_request>
Once I got rid of POST2GET and simplified the script ala Lergon's code
things started to work. Sigh.
However, I followed code snippets from
<http://perl.apache.org/guide/porting.html#Converting_into_Perl_Content_Han>
I guess I either did not read things carefully, or I am missing something.
:( I would imagine I had about 3 solutions going at once -- that is to say
that if any one of them were implemented alone things might have worked. In
conjunction with each other they fumbled each other up.
Oh well.
I do appreciate everyone's time. Hopefully the above information might
prove useful to other people in similar situation.
Cheers,
Ward

: Hi Ward,
:
: assumed, you have seen the example from
:
: http://perl.apache.org/guide/snippets.html#Reusing_Data_fr
: om_POST_request
:
: and you have written your own POST2GET.pm, more questions
: are arising:
:
: Is POST2GET.pm loaded anywhere - in a startup.pl or via
: httpd.conf?
:
: Some more hints:
:
: Add 'use warnings;' to your code and look at your error_log.
: CGI.pm should be loaded AND compiled very early.
: Be careful with global vars under mod_perl.
: Look in CPAN to avoid reinventing the wheel:
