You should definately be using Auth::Cookie for this. I would give the docs
another read. It took me a couple of tries to get it working successfully,
but I have implemented it in about 4 or 5 applications, and it works
flawlessly.
With Auth::Cookie it will handle the cookies for you, it will do the
redirection to your login page for you, and it can handle logouts as well (by
expiring the cookie).
As for Apache::Session, it is really just a keyed data store with expiry
times. You give it some data, and it gives you a key. If you come back
later and give it the same key, it gives you back your data.
A lot of people use Auth::Cookie and Apache::Session together to build a
session management system, but I prefer just using a ticket based system with
Auth::Cookie alone (See the Eagle book on how to do ticket based
authentication). I have included a sample Auth::Cookie implementation that
might give you some ideas. It is not complete, but it might get you going (I
have stripped out some of the irrelevant code, so it probably won't work out
of the box). Also you will have to provide your own login.pl and logout.pl
scripts (I would use the examples that come with Auth::Cookie until you get a
working system, then you can look at building your own.

After Auth::Cookie has finished it's phase, it will set the REMOTE_USER
environment variable to the user that logged in. You could just as easily
set this to 'teacher' or whatever. Then your content handler can look at
this variable and decide what to do.

See the docs. What I am trying to do is to add a footer to the _html_ output by perl scripts running under perl_run. After delving into the camel book, I found I could try "stacked handler pipelining". I need to find out first what content type the script output is, and if it is html, the footer will be added. I'll give the idea a go now. Thanks for the replies. Regards, Jie

Silly Newbie Question: cookies and such
Unfortunatly, I find myself with a silly newbie question: I need to make an Apache module (not a Registry script) which will: 1. Check for a cookie, and if not there, pushhandler to a module for logging in (keeping the original request at hand for use after they succeed in logging in). 2. Extract data from the cookie (encrypted for security?) 3. Based on data from both the query string ($r->args?) and from data in the cookie, pushhandler to another module. I have looked at Apache::AuthCookie - it didn't seem to make much sense to me. Apache::Session looks promising, but the instructions don't say how to set up the mysql tables, etc. My worst problem is that I haven't had occasion to deal with cookies much (setting, checking,etc.) in the past and I know this is hampering my understanding. Can anyone give me a general overview (use this module, this way, etc.)? I'm not totally new to Apache Modules, but my experience is gleaned from writing modules already pushed into the handler stack by PerlTransHandlers written by someone else. I don't want to use PerlTransHandler, just PerlHandler, so I can use in perl.conf. In conclusion: I'm making a system/site where no .html files even exist. I need to handle security via a mysql db, and to push handlers based on a part of the url and a piece of the cookie which identifies the user as either a teacher, student, or parent (oops... I gave it away ;-) Jonathon Robison

asp perl problem
Hi I am new to perl and would like to make a asp page with a script that will find all files in a given directory and create links to different files in another directory. The two sets of files are images (thumbnails and big pics) so I would also like to show the thumbnails on the page and have the links to the bigger pics. I already have all the images and do not need a thumbnail generator. I just want it so that when I add new images thats it. I am not asking for a complete answer only a pointer towards which functions would best do this job etc. Any help you can give would be great. Ju. This e-mail, and any attachment, is confidential. If you have received it in error, please delete it from your system, do not use or disclose the information in any way, and notify me immediately.

Peter, in the future posts please consider the following:
1. in perl we don't have pointers, but references. I think you'll be more
understood if you talk using the Perl terminology, rather than C.
2. it helps to diagnose a problem when a *short* (a few lines) code
example is shown, rather than just describing the symptoms.
This should give you directions to understanding your problem and
solving it:
1. forked children share the same datastructure with a parent until they
get modified. When this happens a copy on write occurs and the child
process doesn't share the datastructure anymore. See:
http://perl.apache.org/guide/performance.html#Know_Your_Operating_System
2. apparently you have the same problem as 'too many connections'
problem, and therefore want to look at Apache::DBI for understanding the
problem and coming up with a similar solution for your problem.

I have a virtual private server account from Verio too. What you could do, is compile your own Apache and run it on a high port, then setup ProxyPass or RewriteRule [P] so that the Apache on port 80 (that you can't recompile) just proxies to the one on the high port. That's probably better from a performance point of view too - if you serve static content (e.g. JPG files) on your website, it costs less resources to have a non-mod_perl frontend to serve the graphics for you.

xml parsing under mod_perl segfaults
Hello mod_perl gurus, I am trying to do some xml parsing under mod_perl. My script basically looks like this: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use CGI qw(:standard); use XML::Parser; use XML::SimpleObject; my $file="test.xml"; my $parser = XML::Parser->new(ErrorContext => 2, Style => "Tree"); my $xml = XML::SimpleObject->new($parser->parsefile($file)); # mod_perl killer print header(); ... When executed at command line and under handler cgi-script the script works fine. However, when run under mod_perl the Apache child segfaults with: [notice] child pid 16608 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) The problem occurs at line marked as the mod_perl killer when parser tries to parse $file. I have observed identical behavior under the following setups: [freeBSD] Apache/1.3.12 mod_perl/1.21 Perl 5.005_03 built for i386-freebsd [linux] Apache/1.3.19 mod_perl/1.24_01 Perl v5.6.0 built for i386-linux Searching through various mailing lists revealed there maybe conflicts w/ Apache's expat, with a solution being to recompile without it. Postings with this same problem date back to almost one year ago. Since my freeBSD setup is a "virtual private server" from verio I cannot easily recompile+reinstall apache. Please reply if you are aware of a fix for this problem or a workaround for parsing XML under mod_perl. (a fix that does not require apache recompilation would be ideal) Thanks, //Artem
