Hi, I am trying to get some things to work with the apache that came with mandrake5.3 I have installed the DBI I needed and other programes but here is my problem. This is what I am putting in my html page at the top my $r = #!/usr/bin/perl Apache->request; print "HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Apache/1.3b3 mod_perl/1.15 "; this is the start up and error log in the apache. [Fri Mar 12 16:59:40 1999] [notice] Apache/1.3.3 (Unix) (Red Hat/Linux)mod_perl/1.15 configured -- resuming normal operation Can't locate object method "request" via package "Apache" at /home/httpd/html/public_html/search.pl line 2.
