You must have taken this subroutine out of context. There are a certain
number of things which must appear for an Apache handler to work:
package Apache::Whatever;
You need to have that line to uniquely identify your module. If you use the
name Apache::Whatever, your handler must be named Whatever.pm and be placed
in your @INC search path under Apache/
This is probably the reason for your number 2 problem: you must have used
the same package name twice. Or not used a package name at all.
use Apache::Constants;
This imports the constants like OK, DECLINED, etc... You can also specify
them explicitly:
use Apache::Constants qw(OK DECLINED);
I hope this helps you out.
