Upload Meter with Apache::Request

[Michael Dwyer]

Hi, I'm sorry if this has been covered, but i've scoured the net and can't
find any documentation on exactly how to use the upload hook of
Apache::Request to create a meter, as it states in the Apache::Request
documentation.  Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction
to look for information on this.  Thanks in advance.

RE: About Apache::DBI

[Brendan W. McAdams]

Once you use Apache::DBI; all calls to DBI should transparently use it.
You should not have to change any of your other code (connect
statements, etc)

Hi

Okay, so I read up on Apache::DBI, but I still have a question or two.

Specifically, am I supposed to keep my "use DBI", "DBI->connect()", and
everything DBI related and not change a single thing in my source after
I've added "Apache::DBI->connect_on_init()" in startup.pl?

Right, I guess that's all. Thanks in advance,

RE: Simple configuration question

[Kirk Rogers]

Following the example to the "T" in
http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html#mod_perl_and_apache_ssl_openss, if
I add "APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache_ssl" it shouldn't even touch anything
I have in my original installation at "/usr/local/apache".  Is this correct?

Then I can slowly migrate my configuration file over to the new installation
directories?

Thanks,
Kirk

Go ahead and rebuild with the latest sources in a new directory.  None
of your existing files will be touched until you do '#make install'
and your existing configuration files in .../apache/conf won't be
overwritten at all.  Of course you have backups anyway, don't you?

Unlikely, as I specifically developed it for Apache::ASP.

Please post all Apache::ASP specific questions to its mailing list,
which you can get on at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You could always develop your own method/sub for this which 
calls $Response->Debug under mod_perl & does something else
under IIS.  Also, if there is some IIS/PerlScript method missing
in Apache::ASP that you would like to use, please post your
API request to the asp list.

Since your questions is about Microsoft ASP, you might want to ask it on 
a Microsoft ASP list.  You already know that Apache::ASP supports it.

Simple configuration question

[Kirk Rogers]

Hello,
I've installed an Apache/mod_perl distribution some months ago and used the
standard installation guidelines.  However, now I'd like to add SSL
capabilities and dont want to clobber my existing system
How can I add SSL to my existing distribution without overwriting any of my
current configuration and files?  If there's documentation on this
particular request, please forgive as I haven't found it yet.

Thanks for the help,
Kirk

Response->Debug and IIS

[Mike Martinet]

Can anyone tell me if $Response->Debug from Apache::ASP is implemented 
in ActiveState Perl under IIS?

We are trying to develop one set of PerlScript pages to run under both 
Apache and IIS and it would be really great if we could settle on this 
for debugging.


Thanks,

Re: where is libperl.so.1?

[J S]

I found the cause of this error. Somehow I'd managed to install an apache 
build I did, where I was running mod_perl dynamically not static. I copied 
over my latest build where I run mod_perl statically and it was fine.

Apache::Status override keys in menu_item() sub

[Enrico Sorcinelli]

Hi all,
I've seen that there is a conflict situation in Apache::Status module 
(v 2.02, mod_perl 1.26) in handling plug-in items.
In effect when I install an Apache::Status menu item plug-in, there isn't 
control over pre-installed items.
For example I can add following item in my module:

# prepare menu item for Apache::Status
Apache::Status->menu_item(
   'inc' => 'Overriding Apache::Status menu item',
   sub {
  my($r, $q) = @_;
  my(@s) = "My dump...";
  return \@s;
   }
) if ( $INC{'Apache.pm'} && Apache->module('Apache::Status') );  

In this way, I will override the %status hash entry corresponding to 
'Loaded Modules'.
Any chances to patch this by checking existent items before typeglobbing?

This is a _very simple_ proposal patch:

Newbie help - My cookies won't bake?

Revered Chefs,

Please forgive a mere mod_perl kitchen-hand, undergoing early cookie 
training... I have the following cookie code, but no cookies come 
back when I refresh, and I don't see any $HTTP_COOKIE in %ENV. 
$cookies ends up as a hash ref pointing to an empty hash.

I have the following in my httpd.conf:
  PerlWarn On
  PerlTaintCheck On
  PerlFreshRestart On
  PerlInitHandler Apache::Reload
  PerlSetVar ReloadAll On
  
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
PerlSendHeader Off
Options +ExecCGI
  


Help?? TIA

Re: Site Host Providers that Support mod_perl?

[Sergey Maretskiy]

Hello.

Sorry my bad English.
There is ISP Zenon http://zenon.net
I think Zenon is the best of those providing professional hosting services
and they rank first
by number of clients hosted in Russia.
They offer personal httpd with mod_perl (running as backend), shell, gcc,
personal MySQL and PostgreSQL DBs etc. for $45/month.
They also pay a lot of attention to security (for example, personal httpd is
actually given to each client even on smaller plans where you don't have
access to httpd.conf, so users cannot walk by each other account data etc.)
Unfortunatly English part of their site is very poor and I don't know if
they provide same good international services as local. But may be you will
have success with them!

Sergey.
