That's true, but to get the full debug functionality, one would have to compile perl, apache, and mod_perl with debugging enabled. And not everyone would want that by default, as it comes with speed and size penalties. Also, even with this, it's easier to debug things in this context with Visual Studio present, and if you have this, it'd be better to compile it yourself anyway. Perhaps, if there's enough of a demand, I could make up a package with debugging enabled; that might be worth it at this development stage to help track problems like the ones you've encountered. -- best regards, randy
