hmm, maybe it isn't documented there, then. I know I wrote about it in an article I did for perl.com http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2003/07/08/mod_perl.html?page=3 but I didn't realize it wasn't documented anywhere on perl.apache.org :) and apparently stuff has changed since that article was written anyway - I'm 99% sure that putting PerlLoadModule in extra.conf.in didn't keep httpd from starting back then. but who can remember that far back... really, I hardly know what's documented and where anymore on the perl.apache.org site and docs, as the docs have grown substantially over the past few years and, for the most part, stas has done all the work. so, if you're inclined enough to produce a patch, feel free to insert extra.last.conf.in notes wherever it makes sense to you. --Geoff
