Sorry, false alarm... I had subclassed Apache2::AuthCookieDBI 2.12 and
had to do things like this:
*Apache2::AuthCookieDBI::_dbi_connect = sub {
since Apache2::AuthCookieDBI wasn't very subclassable, and with the
upgrade to a very nice Apache2::AuthCookieDBI 2.14 my whatever I did up
there broke things.
I guess I owe my admin a beer.

Maybe you are using the wrong sethandler value for your application, check
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#C_GlobalRequest_
If you are using a global $r variable you should specify
SetHandler perl-script
and not
SetHandler modperl
Using the latter you get the $r variable as an argument to your handler-sub.

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.
Do you see now why I would prefer to work with a PaaS instead of admins,
I don't want to have to deal with this, I just want to write apps.
Thanks!
