Hi:

I have successfully created a module that declares some configuration parameters which should be available to the handler: dbDriver, dbHost, dbName, dbUser and dbPassword. Or so I think, I followed this guide:

  http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/custom.html
This section of it doesn't answer that for you ?
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/custom.html#toc_Directive_Callback_Subroutine

The simple answer is try it :)

The yet simpler ? :) Well, what confuses me is the merging example in the end of the text. Anyway, the text you refer to tells how I can get global/serverwide parameters, but I don't see any mention of whether or not parameters defined for a different virtual host is possible. I prefer not for security.
I believe you can get to anything:

If a request is made to a resource inside a virtual host, $srv_cfg will contain 
the object of the virtual host's server.
  my $srv_cfg = Apache2::Module::get_config('MyApache2::MyParameters', $s);

To reach the main server's configuration object use:
  use Apache2::Module ();
  use Apache2::ServerRec ();
  use Apache2::ServerUtil ();
  ...
  if ($s->is_virtual) {
      my $base_srv_cfg = Apache2::Module::get_config('MyApache2::MyParameters',
                                                    
Apache2::ServerUtil->server);
      print $base_srv_cfg->{name};
  }

However, I think you can still get to anything you want:

  my $tree = Apache2::Directive::conftree();

by traversing this far enough down.  (see t/response/TestApache/conftree.pm)
