James Moore claimed to have gotten it right: http://groups.google.ch/groups?q=emacs+mod_perl&hl=en&lr=lang_en|lang_de&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=1051404465.5094 +85%40yasure&rnum=1
It partially works for me.

Now for some answers: > Doesn't Emacs just use the running perl debugger and redisplay it's output? Yes, with a normal perl script this works, but I have to run a binary (apache), and this spawns the perl5db.pl script. > Does it do it by pid? No, it parses the output of Apache::DB. > Do you get some kind of error message from Emacs? Emacs has a command M-x perldb, which only accepts a perl script as argument. I can't pass a perl script, because it's a binary. So I could not even ask emacs to do anything, hence no error message. In the mean time I used a fifo (with mkfifo) and got the apache output into emacs, using |fifo. Somehow gud refused to deal with this (I guess as the pipe is only one-directional). Another idea is to copy some of Devel::ptkdb and make a Devel::emacs (name?) and use emacsclient. cu -- Pieter -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
