Hello list,
i'm trying to run a subrequest from within
a mod_perl content handler. The subrequest
is build from the request's 'lookup_file()'
method. Unfortunately, when i invoke the
'run()' method of the subrequest, no HTTP
headers are sent (even so the documentation
from 'Writing Apache Modules' claims that 'run()'
"... will do
everything a response handler is supposed to,
including sending the HTTP headers and the
document body."
"... you must not send the HTTP header and
document body yourself ..."
Here's a short test case:
sub handler {
my $req = shift;
my $filename = "/tmp/sample.html";
my $sub = $req->lookup_file($filename);
$status = $sub->status;
if($status == 200)
{
$ret = $sub->run;
}
return ret;
}
Furthermore, if the filename given to 'lookup_uri()'
points to a directory, $sub->status will return '200'
but '$sub->run()' will return '301' (which is o.k. since
the filename should end with a '/' ...).
Any ideas?
