Hi,
you should have said that you are running as CGI. Here the modification using PerlRequire doesn't have any effects because you are starting a new perl-interpreter for every request. You should make a Apache::Registry-Script out of it, else you'll have to stick with
use lib qw() in your .cgi.

Tom et al,
OK. Permissions on startup.pl are:
-rwx------ 1 darnold darnold 146 Jul 22 23:07 startup.pl
But I am running Apache with user=darnold and group darnold.
I put a print statement in startup.pl, which was a good idea by the way.
# File: startup.pl
use lib qw(/home/darnold/modperl/); use lib qw(/usr/local/apache/modules/); print "Starting up David's startup.pl file\n"; 1;
Then I stopped and started Apache:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] apache]# bin/apachectl stop bin/apachectl stop: httpd stopped [EMAIL PROTECTED] apache]# bin/apachectl start Starting up David's startup.pl file bin/apachectl start: httpd started
And there's my print statement, so I'm excited. But, ....
I have a little module in /home/darnold/modperl called WebDB.pm.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] modperl]$ ll WebDB.pm -rw------- 1 darnold darnold 716 Jul 18 14:21 WebDB.pm
It's the usual, with:
package WebDB; # File: WebDB.pm
use strict; use DBI; . . . 1;
Now, I have a file in /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/ that "uses" this module.
#! /usr/local/bin/perl -w # File: Quiz1Solns.pl
use strict; use WebDB; . . .
But calling it from my browser causes:
Can't locate WebDB.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.2/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.2/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Quiz1Solns.pl line 9.
See, those two extra locations in my startup are not included in INC. If I do this,
#! /usr/local/bin/perl -w # File: Quiz1Solns.pl
use lib qw(/home/darnold/modperl/); use strict; use WebDB; . . .
Then all is well.
Hmmm.... Any suggestions?

Hi,
Is Apache allowed to change into this directory/read the file, try to move it to e.g. /tmp and see if it works. You could also insert a print-Statement and you should see the output on the console when apache is started (stop/start not restart). I'm not sure but I think a restart will not reload PerlRequire things. Maybe someone could correct me if I'm wrong.
You could also test it using "apachectl configtest" and you should see the output.

All,
I have this in conf/httpd.conf:
# Startup File: PerlRequire /home/darnold/modperl/startup.pl
And:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] apache]# cat /home/darnold/modperl/startup.pl # File: startup.pl
use lib qw(/home/darnold/modperl/); 1;
However, I am getting this in my error log:
Can't locate OnlineTestingDB.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .)
Shouldn't @INC contain /home/darnold/modperl?
