 I think he's trying to say
 
 perldoc Apache::Request

Hmm, I was hoping I was way beyond that!

Perhaps I'm not being clear -- I'm use'ing a module and calling a
documented method and then perl is claiming the module isn't loaded. I
showed a command line that demonstrated this ( that the module is
installed) and then said it also happened when under mod_perl. To go
into even more detail, here is how I'm calling it under mod_perl. I'm
new to this so quite possibly the mistake's somewhere here...

httpd.conf:

Files /perl-bin/*.cgi
   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlHandler Apache::Registry
   Options +ExecCGI
   PerlSendHeader On
/Files


apr.cgi:

#!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use strict;

use Apache::Request;

my $r = shift;
my $apr = Apache::Request-new($r);
my @params = $apr-param;

print HTML;
Content-type: text/plain

@params;
HTML


And sho' nuff ...error.log contains,

Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (perhaps you forgot to 
load Apache::Request?) at /home/wwwrp/perl-bin/apr.cgi line 7.

Yup, this is it. Grrr, seems like my Files /perl-bin/*.cgi was
the problem.

Directory /home/wwwrp/perl-bin
Files *.cgi
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options +ExecCGI
PerlSendHeader On
/Files
/Directory

Thanks Matt  all!

D'oh,

Re: Can't call Apache::Request-new()

[Paul Makepeace]

So no replies to this -- could someone even confirm they have a working
Apache::Request v0.33 on perl 5.6.1? That would be a big help in at
least determining whether it's perhaps something amiss here. Else I'll
file it as a bug.

Cheers,
Paul
