I don't know whether this will help you, but don't just focus on this handler. I encountered problems using lookup_uri myself, because I did not bear in mind that ->lookup_uri goes through a request cycle itself, thus calling a far lot of the handlers defined for that uri. However it is not a complete request, so things like ->pnotes etc. can fail. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=105118150200822&w=2 for my 'diary'. --Frank
