ok just to let you know I have tried my above experiment (taking mod_perl
authentication out of the equation) and everything works as one would
expect. So this means it is related to mod_perl's behavior or how I am using
it.
I have had problems before when mod_perl seems to override various behavior
in Apache. For example when using a PerlAuthenHandler it seemed to wipe out
the standard DirectoryIndex directive which the main webserver had set to
index.htm etc. This caused a problem when visiting the root directory as it
would not serve up the default index page. To fix this I had to add a
PerlFixUpHandler which restored some default settings.
Is this a similar problem/issue?
