File upload of binary format not working
I have tested other formats and they all work fine. For some reason I can't upload binary files anymore. There has been no change to the code for the pages that do the upload. The upload just hangs and never finishes. Apache 1.3.14 mod_perl 1.24_01 Apache::ASP 2.07 RH 6.1 Has anyone else had this problem?

i think it's possible that the fix for this is in 1.24_01-dev:
switch usage of hard_timeout() to soft_timeout(), so if SIGALRM
happens during Apache::{print,read}, the script will continue run,
allowing proper cleanup (e.g. DESTROY)
do you see anything in the error_log related to timeouts?

If you truly need to get them to work together, you'll have to do a LWP request and get the document produced by mod_include, then do Perl processing on the result. Not pretty. I'd suggest subclassing Apache::SSI with the same changes they've made to mod_include. If that's not possible, then I guess you can chalk up the ugliness to proprietary software woes.

mixing perl and c module on handler stack
In looking at the mod_perl_2.0 features I noticed this:
> The AddFilter directive takes any number of filters, for example,
> this configuration will first send the output to mod_include, which
> will in turn pass its output down to Apache::ReverseFilter:

Is there any way to pipe output from my own handler into mod_include
and thence into GzipChain like the above?
or is the inability to do this the reason Apache::SSI exists?
I've been reading Apache::OutputChain and Apache::Filter trying
to figure all this out.
If you want to know why I just don't use Apache::SSI it is because
I am dealing with a OpenAdStream from realmedia which has a modifed
mod_include.so which makes calls to a 'proprietary' library.
So it seems a lot easier to just be able to send the output from my
handler into their mod_include.

depends on your os and perl -V:usemymalloc
e.g. linux will "give it back to the os", but i think that depends on the

will only "give it back to Perl".

you mean to not cache? that idea has/is-being considered for 2.0, a
thread that combs interpreters not in use for things like this.

considering you can do this:
package My::Module;
$Apache::ReadConfig::Location{'/'}->{PerlCleanupHandler}
= join '::', __PACKAGE__, 'cleanup';
sub cleanup {
my $r = shift;
warn "cleanup in $$\n";
}
cleanup() will be called without touching httpd.conf.
a small module to cut down the noise should do the trick for you.
checking all packages by default would be far too expensive to be a
standard feature.

thanks for your contribution, however, Apache::Registry is not accepting
any new features. have a look at Apache::{PerlRun,RegistryNG,RegistryBB}
new features should fit in here or be in its own subclass. i don't think

the distribution test suite has a ChildInitHandler that does this:
$s->warn("[notice] child_init for process $$, report any problems to $sa\n");
% make start_httpd_fork
% grep 'child_init for process' t/logs/error_log | wc -l
5
% echo > t/logs/error_log
% kill -HUP `cat t/logs/httpd.pid `
% grep 'child_init for process' t/logs/error_log | wc -l

% echo > t/logs/error_log
% kill -USR1 `cat t/logs/httpd.pid `
% grep 'child_init for process' t/logs/error_log | wc -l
5
% make kill_httpd
looks like it works fine. also using 5.6.0, linux, apache
1.3.15-dev, mod_perl-1.24_02-dev. if you could try the above and/or
provide a small test case that breaks, i'll have a look.
Apache::AuthCookie transfer of ownership
Hi all, For a long while, it's become clearer and clearer to me that I need to hand off ownership of the Apache::AuthCookie module to someone else. I haven't been able to keep up with the many development requests, even when they've been perfectly reasonable and probably fairly simple to execute. Therefore, I've decided to cede ownership to Michael Schout (the author of Apache::AuthTicket, a subclass of Apache::AuthCookie), who has graciously accepted the offer. He's asked me to provide him an email archive of past feature requests, bug reports, and the like. I'll do that, and if you're still actively hoping to affect some particular change in the module, you might drop him a line directly ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I'm quite pleased that this neglected module will find a new owner who can take it in new and better directions. ------ Ken Williams Last Bastion of Euclidity [EMAIL PROTECTED]The Math Forum

Running a few less processes than you could is better than risking swapping, because your service is basically gone when you hit swap. (Note that this is different from your ISP example, because the ISP could still provide some service, albeit with reduced bandwidth, after maxing out it's T1.) The numbers I put in here were random, but in a real system you would adjust this according to your expected process size. Even a carefully coded system will leak over time, and I think killing off children after 1MB of growth would probably be too quick on the draw. Child processes have a significant startup cost and there's a sweet spot between how big you let the processes get and how many you run which you have to find by testing with a load tool. It's different for different applications. It would be nice if Apache could dynamically decide how many processes to run at any given moment based on available memory and how busy the server is, but in practice the best thing I've found is to tune it for the worst case scenario. If you can survive that, the rest is cake. Then you can get on to really hard things, like scaling your database. - Perrin

I think that the problem here is that we've asked for more info and he hasn't supplied it. He's given us generics and as a result has gotten generic answers. 1) What are the average hits per second that you are projecting this box to handle? 2) What is the peak hits per second that you are project this box to handle? 3) We know you have a gig of ram, but give us info on the rest of the platform? 4) What's your OS like? Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, Linux, FreeBSD, etc. & which version and/or flavor 5) What other processes are you running? 6) Do you have a Database? Which one? A gig of ram is nothing to Oracle 6a) Will be running queries constantly or will you be caching a lot? 7) What other modules are you running? PhP? SpeedyCGI? Axkit? Cocoon? In short what is the server DOING at any given moment. Until folks have a feel for this no one is going to be able to offer you any insight beyond what you already have.

I think you're making this much harder than it needs to be. It's this simple: MaxClients 30 PerlFixupHandler Apache::SizeLimit use Apache::SizeLimit; # sizes are in KB $Apache::SizeLimit::MAX_PROCESS_SIZE = 3; $Apache::SizeLimit::CHECK_EVERY_N_REQUESTS = 5; If you're paranoid, you can throw BSD::Resource in the mix to catch things like infinite loops in your code.

Need Some Help
I have just downloaded 2 Modules from cpan.org. They appear to be compiling and installing fine but I am having problems. I was hoping someone could give me some direction to look in DBI mod_perl When I start Apache I receive an error "Rebuild with -DPERL_STACKED_HANDLERS to $r->push_handlers at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Apache/DBI.pm line 30." Apache is installed in /opt/Apache version 1.3 I have enabled "PERL_CHILD_INIT" and "PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS" when compiling mod_perl and it showed as enabled but when compiling everything (Apache/Mod_Perl) the compilers commands show "-DNO_PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS" and "-DNO_PERL_CHILD_INIT". So I did a make clean did the configuration over again but before I did a make I went though ever Makefile and changed "-DNO_PERL" to "-DPERL_" but made no change in the out come of my problem. Any suggestions or direction would be most appreciated. Edward Perry

Confusion between script in mod_perl

2:SedNove::oper,

the number of open connections to mysql may be limited
by the database, but it is not limited by DBI or Apache::DBI.
Memory might help if your machine is swapping. But low on
memory can not be the reason for any re-connect.

Hi Rob. Here's how you design an e-commerce site: Figure out how many users you want to service. Figure out how much juice it takes to service each user. Multiply. Add 50%. Build. You simply cannot come forward and say, "look, I've got this big-assed linux box, why is my site sucking?" We don't know, and it's neither our job nor our business to know. I saw many very, very good explanations on the 'edge of chaos' thread, a couple of which actually led me to make some tweaks on my own site. I'll try to recap it: You should never be anywhere near any fine line - the risk is just too great. Swap kills web sites. Queueing kills web sites. People looking for 'graceful degradation' in a production web architecture are looking for the wrong answer. Unix is not designed to degrade gracefully - Linux even less so. They are both designed to go balls-out as long as they have CPU and RAM space to do so, and that's what they do. The very, very best minds in production architecture out there will pine over how much accessing data from RAM sucks - they want all cache, all the time. There is not a linear falloff in performance from cache -> RAM -> disk, and you should not expect one from the applications which rely on those things. The httpd.conf file is extremely well documented. There is a program in $APACHE/bin called 'ab,' and will give you a decent baseline from which to provision for your site, and etc. If you have a specific problem, and ask a specific question, you will get, usually, an outstanding answer, with as much technicial depth as you care to probe for. If your question is "I'm really, really smart, why should I have to learn all of this stuff," well, I don't think this is the list for ya.

Well, yes and no... the HW is PLENTY powerful enuff, and I *know* I'm not budgeting resources properly. First of all, I'm a true geek... I can melt *any* machine. :-) Second of all, with the literally thousands of pages of docs necessary to understand in order to be really mod_perl proficient, I'm not at all surprised or embarrassed that there are things about tuning a high-powered server environment that I don't know. Thirdly, I don't have significant load, for the most part. I have designed everything I've written to have as little impact on each specific phase of the transaction process as possible. On my most important server, a dual PIII/600 w/ 2GB of RAM, part of my problem is that I put in the second GB when I'm *CONVINCED* that all I needed to do was find the fine line of resource limitation that would prevent meltdown... I mean, 1GB is a lot of ram. And finally, I was hoping to prod somebody into posting snippets of CODE and httpd.conf that describe SPECIFIC steps/checks/modules/configs designed to put a reasonable cap on resources so that we can serve millions of hits w/o needing a restart. I know I'm not dumb... in fact, I know I'm exceptionally good. But with the ridiculous number of things I have to keep track of (being head geek is always a busy job), I still haven't been able to wrap my mind around the correct usage(s) of the various resource limiting modules. A working example (even for a completely different machine) would make my job 10 times easier. L8r, Rob

There are other things, like auto href, form elements etc. that are very helpful.
Perhaps it is the

I think to help people coming from CGI or EmbPerl that are used to having all params
in the same
place that having $Form be automatic is a must have. You can have it be an option in
the globals if
there is any potential performance hit for doing it I suppose ( could it even be on if
the passed
information was huge since it is referenced or does it have dereference then build a
new reference?
). One less thing to add to "remember/keep track" of. Remember I am a Lazy Perl
programmer :^). I
want things under mod_perl to be as simple as possible for new comers, I think have
POST and GET in
separate variables is only relevant to people coming from MS ASP platform, which is
good, but not at
the expense of proficient CGI programmers.

( used Apache::ASP 2.03 and it worked correctly, 2.07 on a different machine and it
didn't )
This gets me undefined subroutine as the error message. If I comment out 'use strict'
it runs fine.
I am getting different messages on more complex pages, but this was working correctly
before, but I
am not sure when it broke. ( post 2.03 maybe )

Why does it matter? You won't be able to test most of the Apache:: modules
from the command line, since the environment is wrong.
>From ch9 in the eagle book:
=item module()
If you need to find out if a Perl module has already been loaded, the
I method will tell you. Pass it the package name of the
module you're interested in. It will return a true value if the
module is loaded.
Example:
do { #something } if Apache->module('My::Module');
This method can also be used to test if a C module is loaded. In this
case, pass it the filename of the module, just as you would use with the
I directive. It will return a true value if the
module is loaded.
Example:
do { #something } if Apache->module('mod_proxy.c');
