So I'm following your advice and going the easy route of apt-get
everything.
My original server had this config:
Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0 Server
And two years later we're at:
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.1 Server
Is that really the state of two years of progress in apt-get packages,
or did I choose the wrong repository?
And so after copying over configs and startups I'm getting this error:
Can't call method "auth_name" on an undefined value at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/Apache2/AuthCookieDBI.pm line 284.
Which is: my $auth_name = $r->auth_name;
So the fact that $r is undefined tells me that whatever is running is
NOT running under mod_perl, is this a valid assessment?
Because right now I will have to get into a fight with my sys-admin who
will say it's not working because I didn't configure something
correctly, but my position is if he apt-gets everything and then copies
over the config/startup from the old (working) install then everything
*should* work so he's probably left out something.
This does sounds like something in the config didn't get copied over. I
believe your stuff runs as registry/perlrun scripts, so that would be
the configuration that's missing.
