Apache::Reload and INC path partialy working

[Bruce Tennant]

I'm trying to do some development work with mod_perl and find
restarting the server a pain.  So I setup Apache::Reload, but it
doesn't seem to want to see my local devel directory all the time.

Here's my settings
Apache/2.0.40
mod_perl-1.99_7
Linux 2.4.20-8 (RedHat9 I think)


Here's my perl.conf (sourced by httpd.conf)
----start----------------

LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB /home/bruce/public_html/ffball/myff
PerlSetVar INC /home/bruce/public_html/ffball/myff

PerlModule Apache2
PerlModule Apache::Reload
PerlInitHandler Apache::Reload

PerlSetVar ReloadDebug On
# PerlSetVar ReloadModules "FFMgr::*"


# This will allow execution of mod_perl to compile your scripts to
# subroutines which it will execute directly, avoiding the costly
# compile process for most requests.
#
Alias /perl /var/www/perl
<Directory /var/www/perl>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry::handler
    PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
    Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>
<Directory /home/bruce/public_html>
  <FilesMatch "\.(pl|pm|cgi)$">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry::handler
    PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
    Options +ExecCGI
  </FilesMatch>
</Directory>

----end-------------------

The PerlSetVar INC line was a futile test.


Here's the problem.  It seems that the reload module is finding the
local modules okay as it shows up in the error_log as checking the
mtime.  But when they do change, it dies when it tries to reload
them and says they aren't in the @INC path.

So it's like it is half working.

Has anyone else seen this problem and have a possible fix?

Thanks
