Re: Can't create custom configuration directives
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. -- Matt/ Fastnet Software Ltd.

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

Re: mod_perl, mod_rewrite, package namespace
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$1 [PT] Alias /def /ghi If you omit the PT flag then mod_rewrite will do its job fine, i.e., it rewrites uri=/abc/... to filename=/def/... as a full API-compliant URI-to-filename translator should do. Then mod_alias comes and tries to do a URI-to-filename transition which will not work. Note: You have to use this flag if you want to intermix directives of different modules which contain URL-to-filename translators. The typical example is the use of mod_alias and mod_rewrite..
RE: Embperl struggles
2. requrire'ing a file that defines some functions sometimes gives me an error that the functions in that file are _not_ defined... I append you a mail I write last month that should explain what happens... 3. I have a hard time understanding when to use [- -] and when to use [! !] or [* *]. Most of what I've done so far uses [- -] and [$ $] (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. Gerald P.S. Support for Embperl is now on the Embperl Mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Gerald Richter Sent: Friday, April 21, 2000 9:10 PM To: Ulrike Schepp; Steven D. Arnold Cc: Embperl Mailingliste 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.. Gerald

Re: Wierd user agent strings
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?
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.
