Hi David -
MOD_PERL=mod_perl/1.99_07-dev
[cut]
It runs fine when accessed with http://hostname/cgi-bin/graffiti.pl. However, when accessed with http://hostname/cgi-perl/graffiti.pl, I get:
Server error! The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Error message: Failed opening session state file ./STATES/259344: No such file or directory at /var/www/cgi-perl/graffiti.pl line 104.
That's a really old version of mod_perl 2. I think for that version,
ModPerl::Registry did not chdir to the script directory before running the
script (because of some thread-related problems).
And it still doesn't do that. It can't do that, since under threads it'll wreak havoc - as chdir affects all threads:

The most recent version of FindBin should work for mod_perl. So instead of requiring a file relatively use FindBin to find where the script's dir is.
