From any command line, try: perl -MModPerl::RegistryLoader
At least in 2.0.1, that causes this error: Bareword "Apache2::ServerUtil::server_root" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/ModPerl/RegistryLoader.pm line 74. However, the script properly uses Apache2::ServerUtil, which does indeed have a subroutine called server_root. This is not a problem when Apache uses the module, only when you try to compile a command-line script that uses ModPerl::RegistryLoader. Why would I want to do that, you ask? Well, we have a test suite that makes sure all our scripts compile. One of those scripts is our mod_perl startup script, which uses ModPerl::RegistryLoader. So, it would be nice if it would compile from the command line. There's no reason for it *not* to compile--I can't figure out why it's failing. -Max -- http://www.everythingsolved.com/ Everything Solved: Competent, Friendly Bugzilla and Linux Services
