Re: Can't create custom configuration directives

2000-06-04 Thread Matt Sergeant

I've snipped the lengthy explanation. Here's a few things you can check:

There's no old version of your module in the ordinary perl lib directory,
rather than the i386-foo/ directory.

That you use DynaLoader.

That you define $VERSION before the bootstrap line.

RE: non-DSO mod_perl, Embperl, and AIX not working

2000-06-04 Thread Gerald Richter

Embperl 1.3b3 and mod_perl 1.24 should work on AIX, but I don't have any
knowledge about AIX. I send a copy to Jens Uwe, who has made the patches for
Embperl to work on AIX, maybe he can help

Gerald



 I am using IBM's C complier (cc) under AIX 4.3.3 with Apache 1.3.12,
 mod_perl 1.24 (statically linked, not DSO), perl 5.00503, and Embperl
 1.3b3.

 The "offline", "execute function", and "cgi mode" Embperl tests are
 all successful. In the "mod_perl" mode, even the simple "ascii" test
 fails.  It fails with a seg. fault and a dbx stack trace that looks
 like this:

 To get Embperl.so to successfully build I added "-b erok" to
 LDDLFLAGS.  I also tried '-G' with similar results. Without the
 modification to LDDLFLAGS I got several "unresolved symbol" errors.

 I also get similar results with Embperl 1.2b9, Apache 1.3.9, and
 mod_perl 1.23.

Re: mod_perl, mod_rewrite, package namespace

2000-06-04 Thread Ime Smits

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that (once again) re-RTFM the manual *twice*
solved my muliple compilation problem. The solution is adding [PT] to the
RewriteRule.

RewriteRule ^/query/(.*) /query.pl?$1 [PT]

--
http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html:

'passthrough|PT' (pass through to next handler)
This flag forces the rewriting engine to set the uri field of the internal
request_rec structure to the value of the filename field. This flag is just
a hack to be able to post-process the output of RewriteRule directives by
Alias, ScriptAlias, Redirect, etc. directives from other URI-to-filename
translators. A trivial example to show the semantics: If you want to rewrite
/abc to /def via the rewriting engine of mod_rewrite and then /def to /ghi
with mod_alias:
RewriteRule ^/abc(.*)  /def$1 [PT]
Alias   /def   /ghi

If you omit the PT flag then mod_rewrite will do its job fine, i.e., it
rewrites uri=/abc/... to filename=/def/... as a full API-compliant
URI-to-filename translator should do. Then mod_alias comes and tries to do a
URI-to-filename transition which will not work.
Note: You have to use this flag if you want to intermix directives of
different modules which contain URL-to-filename translators. The typical
example is the use of mod_alias and mod_rewrite..

 2. requrire'ing a file that defines some functions sometimes gives me
an error that the functions in that file are _not_ defined...


I append you a mail I write last month that should explain what happens...

 3. I have a hard time understanding when to use [- -] and when to use
[! !] or [* *]. Most of what I've done so far uses [- -] and
[$ $] (which I so far have no trouble with). The scoping and
execution time issues are not that clear to me.


Don't use [*  *] (only if you need recursions), because it is still
experminetal in the current version and has some problems. Use  [!  !] to
define Perl-subroutines, in all other cases use [- -].

For scoping read:

http://perl.apache.org/embperl/Embperl.pod.5.html#Variable_scope_and_cleanup


 Last but not least I'd like some kind of pretty printer since my
 Emacs won't help me here. I tried the two things mentioned on the
 web, but to no avail (one requiring Xemacs instead of Emacs, too).


I don't use Emacs, so I can't help you on this issuse, but I am happy to put
anything up on the web, if available.

 Subject: RE: use module in Embperl (was: problem solved, but still
 weird!)


 
  Standard workaround here is now "apachectl restart" after the change of
  modules :-/ weird but it really works!
 

 Nothing weird here. Everything is well defined. Just let us try to
 understand how Perl, mod_perl and Embperl works together:

 "perldoc -f use" tells us:

   Imports some semantics into the current package from the named module,
   generally by aliasing certain subroutine or variable names into your
   package.  It is exactly equivalent to

  BEGIN { require Module; import Module LIST; }

   except that Module must be a bareword.

 So what's important here for us is, that use executes a require
 and this is
 always done before any other code is executed.

 "perldoc -f require" says (among other things):

   ..., demands that a library file be included if it hasn't already
   been included.

 and

   Note that the file will not be included twice under the same specified
   name.

 So now we know (or should know) that mod_perl starts the Perl interpreter
 once when Apache is started and the Perl interpreter is only
 terminated when
 Apache is terminated. Out of these two things follows, that a
 module that is
 loaded via use or require is only loaded once and will never be reloaded,
 regardless if the source changes or not.

 So far this is just standard Perl. Things get's a little bit more
 difficult
 when running under mod_perl (only Unix), because Apache forks a
 set of child
 processes as neccessary and from the moment they are forked, they run on
 their own and don't know of each other. So if a module is loaded at server
 startup time (before the fork), it is loaded in all childs (this
 can be used
 to save memory, because the code will actually only reside once
 in memory),
 but when the modul is loaded inside the child and the source changes, it
 could be happen, that one child has loaded an ealier version and another
 child has loaded a later version of that module, depending on the time the
 module is actualy loaded by the child.

 That explains, why sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, simply
 because different childs has loaded different versions of the same module
 and when you reload your page you hit different childs of Apache!

 Now there is one point that is special to Embperl to add. Since Embperl
 compiles every page in a different namespace, a module that
 doesn't contains
 a "package foo" statement is compiled in the namespace of the
 page where it
 is first loaded. Because Perl will not load the module a second
 time, every
 other page will not see subs and vars that are defined in the
 loaded module.
 This could be simply avoided by giving every module that should be loaded
 via use/require an explicit namespace via the package statement.

 So what can we do?
 - If a module change, simply restart Apache. That's works always.
 - use Apache::StatInc. This will do a stat on every loaded module and
 compare the modification time. If the source has changed the module is
 reloaded. This works most times (but not all modules can be cleanly
 reloaded) and as the number of loaded modules increase, your
 sever will slow
 down, because of the stat it has to do for every module.
 - Use "do" instead of "require". do will execute your file everytime it is
 used. This also adds overhead, but this may be accpetable for
 small files or
 in a debugging environement. (NOTE: Be sure to check $@ after a
 do, because
 do works like eval)

 I hope now it's seem a little bit less weird..

Matt,

Thanks for your suggestions.

I got my hopes up, changed it to '0.9' but no go :-(  Even tried '1.0'
in case doesn't like number below one.  Same thing.  :-(

Shucks and golly!  Is it possible that there is some apache or mod_perl
compile time parameter that needed to be set and wasn't, and if so, what
might that be?  Since the process of adding these directives is pretty
much automated there's not much I can do to mess it up, and then I would
expect it to be glaring -- i.e., apache fails to start with an exit code
other than '0', but that's not the case. And I know that apache invokes
the callback routine because I stuck a print statement in could see it. 
What's left?

I ran the example ASP script but had such errors.  Which expert can
explain it?  Thanks.

Re: Wierd user agent strings

2000-06-04 Thread Renzo Toma


Good question, we have a database for browser usage analysis. It currently
holds roughly 55.000 unique tags. A good 4000 of em are bogus strings like
posted below. So I love to hear some theories too!

Oh fyi, May's score was 80% MSIE, 18% NS..

Cheers,

-Renzo

 Does anyone know what User-Agent strings like these may mean:
 
   (r\177xx\303\203x0\226H
   (r\177xx\303\203xT\365G
   (r\177xx\303\203xt]D
   (r\210xP\223G
   (r\210x\354\250D
   (r\210xx\303\214xH?E
   (r\210xx\303\214xP+E
   (r\210xx\303\214xXCE
   (r\210xx\303\214x\$EE
   (r\210xx\303\214x\204VF
   (r\210xx\303\214x\204yG
   (r\210xx\303\214x\20\256E
 
 (where \210 etc are octal character values).

Subroutine redefined?

2000-06-04 Thread Schuyler D. Erle

Greetings. I'm running Apache/1.3.12 with mod_perl/1.24 and mod_ssl/2.6.4 on a Debian 
system.
(I know mod_ssl and mod_perl on the same server is begging for trouble, but that's the 
way the
site was designed, well before I got there...) We recently recompiled the server with
mod_perl's EVERYTHING=1 to support some code I'm working on which uses stacked 
handlers.

We use Apache::DBI (via PerlModule) to cache connections to a MySQL database. For some 
reason,
when a PerlHandler runs that accesses the database (or perhaps on ChildInit), we get 
several
dozen warnings of the following type dumped to the log:

Subroutine dump_results redefined at /usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBI.pm 
line 1100,
FILE chunk 13.

The warnings all seem to be coming from DBI.pm. It was also doing this with CGI.pm on 
server
load, but that's Gone Away, for reasons unclear. We get this errors with 
PerlFreshRestart
either On or Off. Obviously turning PerlWarn Off makes them stop, but it also makes 
code
testing difficult. Everything seems to run fine in spite of the warnings, but they 
make the
logs unreadable. 

Currently, the best solution I have is the following, shamelessly borrowed from slash:

Perl
$SIG{__WARN__} = sub { warn @_ unless $_[0] =~ /Subroutine [\w:]+ 
redefined/io };
/Perl

However, that's a band-aid, not a fix. I checked for multiple installations of DBI 
just in case
-- no luck. I have RTFM, twice. I searched through the list archives and have not 
found discussion of this particular problem. What I'd like to know is what's causing 
these warnings and how to make them stop (not just how to keep them from being dummped 
to the log). 

Information on our perl and apache installations follows. Any suggestions would be 
appreciated. Thanks.

 I've not done much of either this last year, however, I'm hoping to get
 a new beta DBI release out this week. Maybe...

Tim I hope you plan to integrate Doug's patch which makes it possible to use
DBI with Perl 5.6 -Dusethreads. Thanks!
