Thanks a million, Stas. So it looks that this is either a problem on my config parameters, or maybe that the problem occurs only when running on *Windows* (I'm running Apache2 and modperl2 on WinXP)...
Any hint about what could break in this specific situation ? Or known issues with Apache2+modperl2 on this platform which is not documented in the current FAQ and troubleshooting docs of modperl? Thanks again, Pascal.
