Hello, guys, I'm facing rather unpleasant thing in <Perl> sections. This all happens on Win32, I'm using 0.7 distribution from theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca by Randy Kobes (thanks Randy!)
So, here, what happens when apache starts? 1. It passes the conf file once (starting) 2. passes it for the 2nd time (testing that restart works) 3. forks a child (the only one on Win32) - child passes the conf-file 4. Apache passes the config file again when it stops (dunno what for) So, when I put print to file into my <Perl> section and used a variable filename with $$."-".time() suffix - I got 3 files (two with the same pid-part, as expected). And the 4th - for stop. Now, I'd like to know what phase I'm on and most of all I'd like to limit some part of my <Perl> section to the phase#1 and avoid it at phases#2-4 - for not to execute it in each child. I tried to print $Apache::Server::Starting and $Apache::Server::ReStarting to that files and got 1,0 in all 4 files. Then I used $Apache::ServerStarting and $Apache::ServerReStarting (they are not documented anywhere in my files but are used in Apache::DBI) - and got the same results. So, these vars give no ability to detect the phase. Well, I developed some hack with Win32::Process to detect - am I in the parent process or child or stoping process. But Starting and ReStaring phases are still indistinguishable. Any ideas? Thanks in advance -- ================================== Mike Blazer [EMAIL PROTECTED] ==================================
