I like Monkey Butter v1.0.. On a serious note, I work in a predominately MS shop - of 25 developers me and one other are the only Perl developers with 3 more doing some combination of Java,C++, and C. I would suggest that anyone looking to make a case for 'Perl in the Enterprise' should look at the P5EE project ( http://p5ee.perl.org). From that site - The mission of the P5EE initiative is to promote the development, deployment, and acceptance of Enterprise Systems written in Perl. It has been my experience that results count, unless you are dealing with pointy-headed bosses. If that is the case, you application should spit gold bricks out of the floppy drive and it wouldn't matter. If you're looking for a name to justify Perl in Enterprise then I think the P5EE project and name is as good as any.

Re: Apache::AuthCookie not set cookie really
variable path=/agenda was omitted. Explorer 6.0 doesn't set cookie without path attribute. I think, it's a good idea to make WhatEverPath required option in config. Hrm. I was not aware of that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I have changed AuthCookie in CVS so that Path will be set to / unless the path has been configured. This will allow people who have configurations that dont specify the path to still use the new version without updating the config. Feel free to grab the source from CVS and try it out at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ap-authcookie Mike
Problems changing the realm with auth_name
Hi,
I'm running Apache/1.3.20 (Win32) mod_perl/1.25_01-dev
and am having problem using auth_name to dynamically set the realm. The
call seems to be ignored, using the AuthName directive from http.conf.
Excuse me if I've done something obviously wrong, but I've only been
writing mod_perl for 4 days.
Looking around I saw a note from someone which implied they also had a
problem with this on NT (I'm running XP Professional) but that was some
time ago.
After looking through http://perl.apache.org/dist/mod_perl-1.26/Changes
it seems that the problem I am having may well be fixed in 1.26
Being a simple windows programmer, I'd appreciate it if someone could
point me to a win32 binary distribution of mod_perl for 1.26
My httpd.conf look like this
Location /private
SetHandler perl-script
PerlSendHeader on
AuthName temp
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
PerlAccessHandler Apache::AccessPrivate
/Location
and the access handler part of my AccessPrivate.pm file is here...
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
my $uri = $r-parsed_uri;
my @pi = split /\//,$uri-path_info();
shift @pi;
my $realm = shift @pi;
$r-auth_name($realm);
$r-set_handlers(PerlAuthenHandler = [\authenticate]);
$r-set_handlers(PerlHandler = [\content]);
return OK;
}
regards
john

[RFC] Apache::HEADRegistry
well, thanks to Jean-Michel Hiver, we seem to have a winner with the Apache::Registry HEAD request issue. http://www.modperlcookbook.org/~geoff/modules/Apache-HEADRegistry-0.01.tar.gz below is the README. bascially, Apache::HEADRegistry is just a subclass of Apache::Registry that is HEAD request aware - it lets you go about your business as usual, but stops writes to the client short of the actual content if the request is a HEAD request. You ought to be able to use it as a drop-in replacement for Apache::Registry, with the usual caveats that come with Apache::RegistryNG over Apache::Registry. It seems fairly reasonable, but some additional smoke testing is always much appreciated. The only problem encountered so far seems to be redirect scripts, such as use CGI; $cgi = new CGI; print $cgi-redirect (http://www.foo.com/;); what happens here is that Apache itself processes the redirect as a custom response and, due to some mod_perl shenanigans, doesn't respect the r-header_only request. so, what we seem to have here is a decent attempt at handling HEAD requests, without altering mod_perl core, that works for all but redirects (where the actual content is minimal). as I said, additonal tests are welcome - it's just a beginning effort. I am also open to other naming schemes, since I hate naming things. If folks like the idea, I may include an Apache::Test harness for the module, if I find some spare tuits. --Geoff NAME Apache::HEADRegistry - Apache::Registry drop-in for HEAD requests SYNOPSIS httpd.conf: PerlModule Apache::HEADRegsitry Location /perl-bin SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::HEADRegistry Options +ExecCGI PerlSendHeader On /Location DESCRIPTION Apache::HEADRegistry is a drop-in for Apache::Registry that properly handles HEAD requests. Currently, Apache::Registry has no handling of HEAD requests, so mod_cgi and Apache::Registry scripts do not behave exactly the same. This module attempts to bridge that gap by intercepting headers much in the way that mod_perl does, but then obeying the value of $r-header_only. NOTES Apache::HEADRegistry is a subclass of Apache::RegistryNG, which means that it doesn't behave _exactly_ the same as Apache::Registry. Namely, it uses the filename of the script to determine the unique package namespace, whereas Apache::Registry uses the URI. HEADRegistry also does not do any of the auto-dereferencing in its print() method - if you want that type of thing, then you are obviously relying on the mod_perl API yourself and can therefore check $r-header_only yourself. This module is meant for those who want mod_cgi emulation only. FEATURES/BUGS No known bugs or features at this time, but consider this module alphaware.

Hi, all, I just wanted to make a point of saying that I am available for work of a (mod)Perl-ish nature. I have a lot of expertise in mod_perl, Mason, databases, and Perl in general. I can add two and two. I can bake a cake. I can leap over _extremely_ tiny buildings in a single bound. Larger buildings may take more bounds. My resume is at http://www.urth.org/resume/. I'm interested in contract or full-time employment but I am not willing to relocate. I live in Minneapolis, where I'm currently enjoying the snow and below-freezing temperatures. Thanks, -dave /*== www.urth.org we await the New Sun ==*/
