Re: Custom Log files Under MP2
Specifically, I'd like to log certain image file requests (all files with .jpg, .gif, and .png extensions) to a custom log, image_log, logging IP, file, time, status, bytes, referer, cookies, etc. I care about speed here. Would you suggest a native logging http://www.modperlcookbook.org/chapters/ch16.pdf or take this route http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlLogHandler If the former, would you have any sample config code to illustrate?

self_url MP2 w/o CGI
Hi folks -- I'm using MP2, and I am trying to avoid loading CGI for 2 reasons: (1) To save memory. (2) When I do load CGI, it fails at the require Apache (line 161), and I'd prefer not to edit CGI on my server. Uck. Given I'm not loading CGI, how can I determine self_url() in MP2? I tried something like this code my $self_uri = APR::URI-parse($r-pool, $r-uri)-unparse; $r-headers_out-set(Location = $self_uri . r2=1); return Apache::REDIRECT; /code but this gives me a partial URL, not the full expansion.

Custom Log files Under MP2
I would like to append a small line of log information to a file on certain apache2 requests. For this application, I am very concerned about speed, so i'm looking for fast simple solutions. I could stuff the information in the error log as per http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache/Log.html, and parse it out later off-line, but I'd prefer to reserve the error log for errors. I could stuff the information in the access log, and likewise pull out the data later off-line: how might I get data to the access_log? The most natural place to append the information would be a dedicated file. I've never written to a file from mod_perl, and don't know the correct idiom (flock? etc?) to do so. I'd appreciate any pointers to recipes, modules, etc. to show me the correct (fast, reliable) way to append to a file under MP2. Thanks! :) __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Ah, success.
Hi folks. It is Saturday evening, 2 Aug 03, 9pm local time, and I just got my modperl 2 and apache 2 running on my dev box, built from source, and just ran my first handler successfully. Hurrah!! I started on this wild adventure last Wednesday evening, so it took me around 3.5 days, working on and off. Thanks to the good folks on this list for helping me out, especially ged perrin for their patience and insightful posts. I wanted to summarize what I learned, in case it helps someone else trying to do the same thing. CAUTION: I am a linux and apache and mod-perl NEWBIE; please dont take the following as gospel, I could be (and likely am) wrong. But hopefully my points below will at least raise helpful issues. At times I had trouble as my knowledge was so rudimentary I couldn't read between the lines in the docs and in the posts. (For example, why do the docs casually say make make test make install, when in fact you have to su over to root before the install step? g) So here are my notes on this process: * START CLEAN. Before starting, get rid of any and all old perls and apaches on the system. I had several instances of both due my installation fumblings -- I opted to reinstall Red Hat 9 to start fresh. If you do this, make sure you ask RH to install all the programming tools on my first reinstall, I opted for the server configuration, which didnt give me all the compiling tools needed, and so had to reinstall it again. Useful tools are updatedb and locate, and rpm e. Took me a while to realize I could use wget to pull down .tar.gz sources via http; not knowing about wget, I was trying to get everything through ftp and that was a drag. * SEARCH IS YOUR FRIEND. I really liked the interface and search function at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/archive/mod_perl_C1/. Amazing resource. And searching for key terms or error messages on Google (main) and Google groups gives a good a sense of what might be going on. * MOD_PERL 2 IS STILL YOUNG. I didnt realize going into this that at this point (2 Aug 03) Mod Perl 2 is still pre-release. Ack! My ISP runs Apache 2 so decided to install mod-perl 2, so I wanted AP2 and MP2 on my dev machine to match my ISP setup. (Funny he got MP2 running in a few hours, vs. my 3.5 days but then again, this was also my introduction to linux, apache, etc.) * DONT DO EVERYTHING AS ROOT. Build and test all packages as non-root, then su to root to make install. Dont make and make test as root. I did and ran into troubles and had to start again. * IF PERL DOESNT PASS 100% OF ITS TESTS, STOP. Build perl 5.8.x first, and make sure it passes every test. Do not continue, do not pass go, do not collect $200 until all the tests run. I had to use EXPORT LANG=en_us to get around the UTF bug in Perl 5.8.0. * CPAN IS YOUR FRIEND. After building a successful perl 5.8.0, I used CPAN to install (in this order) CGI, LWP, Bundle::LWP, HTML::Parser. Now, I didnt get 100% clean installs on the last two, and (in violation of the previous rule above) continued on with my fingers crossed. * DONT MIX APACHE 1 AND APACHE 2 DOCS. Without realizing it, I was bouncing between the docs at the mod_perl site for 1.0 and 2.0. I didnt realize how different the two packages are. Stay in one world or the other. The apache install went easily, following the instructions online and in Stas excellent book, practical mod_perl. * ONE ERROR. The mod_perl install went smoothly too, following the instructions online. I did get one error i: filter/in_bbs_msg..server side has failed (response code: 404),see t/logs/error_log for more details but again I foolishly forged on ignoring it. Will this come back to haunt me? I hope not. Anyone want to tell me what this means? * DONT MIX MODPERL1 AND MODPERL2 DOCS. I read Stas book, Practical mod_perl, and really found it useful and well-written. But I thought the whole book was about mod-perl technically it isnt. Most of the book is about MP1, and Chaps 24 and 25 are about MP2. My handlers were wrong, my httpd.conf was wrong I was trying to run MP1 stuff on MP2. I made the same mistake reading ModPerl Developers Cookbook. The fault was mine MP 1 and MP 2 are quite different. I just didnt know this going into this process. * READ PRACTICAL MODPERL CHAP 23 GETTING HELP AND ONLINE RESOURCES FIRST. I noticed this chapter late in the game. Read it first. Those are my tidbits of advice. Good luck to you if you are a newcomer, and thanks to the veterans for providing all this great information, advice, and encouragement -- A __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

handler help
Hi.
I need some help with handlers.
I'm a linux newbie. I freshly installed RH 9.
I built perl 5.8.0 from source.
As non-root, I downloaded source for
Apache 1.3.28 and mod_perl 1.28
and built them, using the instructions here
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html#A_Summary_of_a_Basic_mod_perl_Installation
I've also been using Stas' book, Practical Mod Perl,
and the mod_perl developer's cookbook.
The only change I made to the
A_Summary_of_a_Basic_mod_perl_Installation
was using SU to root for the make install for
mod_perl.
The resulting Apache runs fine.
The resuling mod_perl runs cgi-scripts fine.
At times I'm running two servers on the same box, one
listening
to port 80 and one listening to port 8080.
I turned off the ssl piece of both servers, as they
were colliding
on port (I think) 443. I'm not sure if this 2 server
issue
or the turning ssl is relevant to my problem.
Now I'm trying to write my first mod_perl handler:
PerlModule Apache::HandlerTest
Location /handlertest
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::HandlerTest
/Location
package Apache::HandlerTest;
# File is called Apache/HandlerTest.pm
# Path:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Apache/HandlerTest.pm
sub handler {
my $r = shift; # Apache session object
$r-content_type('text/html');
$r-send_http_header;
$r-print( Hello, world. );
}
It dies with an
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete your
request
Here's the end of the log
[Thu Jul 31 18:34:08 2003] [error] [client
192.168.1.2] Can't locate object method content_type
via package Apache::RequestRec at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Apache/HandlerTest.pm
line 6.!
[Thu Jul 31 18:34:08 2003] [error] [client
192.168.1.2] File does not exist: /var/www/error
As the problem seesm related to finding things, I
tried making
the handler simpler by using no functions
sub handler {
print HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n;
print Content-Type: text/html\n\n;
print htmlbodyHello/body/html;
return 200;
}
This didn't work either --
[Thu Jul 31 18:42:57 2003] [error] [client
192.168.1.2] Can't locate object method PRINT via
package Apache::RequestRec at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Apache/HandlerTest.pm
line 13.!
[Thu Jul 31 18:42:57 2003] [error] [client
192.168.1.2] File does not exist: /var/www/error
I guess the print is really a call to $r-print()
(Practical Mod_perl p 238).
This newcoming to mod-perl seeks any help on next
steps.

Re: Skipped Tests (was: handler help)
I'm not TRYING to be difficult; I am clueless. :) Exactly HOW do I change the locale? And after I do that, I do my make make install again, yes? Many thanks! :) A __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com
Re: Skipped Tests (was: handler help)
I am still here, trying to build mod_perl 2. Many thanks to everyone who offered help. To recap: I freshly installed RedHat 9 on a box, then used RPM to remove modules involving httpd. (See notes below). Then I built perl 5.8.0 from source, first doing a export LANG=C to address the UTF bug. The perl build worked. I did everything as non-root until the make install, which I did as root. I then built Apache 2.0.47 from source. Seemed to go OK (there was no make test step...) I did everything as non-root until the make install, which I did as root. Then as root I used CPAN to install Bundle::WWW, LWP, and HTML::Parser. Had some troubles, used the force option, and plowed ahead. (Maybe I should have stopped here at the first sign of trouble) As non-root, did cd mod_perl-1.99_09/ perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=$HOME/httpd/prefork MP_INST_APACHE2=1 make which went fine. make tests did not work -- below is the bottom of the output. Argh! Suggestions? - A PS Below the make test output below, I included a note file where I've been pasting commands I've run... in some places, it contains notes, rather than exact linux commands. == = BOTTOM OF FAILED make test == snip /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/arch/Apache2 -Iblib/lib/Apache2 \ t/TEST -clean *** setting ulimit to allow core files ulimit -c unlimited; t/TEST -clean APACHE_USER= APACHE_GROUP= APACHE_PORT= APACHE= APXS= \ /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/arch/Apache2 -Iblib/lib/Apache2 \ t/TEST -verbose=0 *** setting ulimit to allow core files ulimit -c unlimited; t/TEST -verbose=0 /home/aprk/httpd/prefork/bin/httpd -d /home/aprk/src/mod_perl-1.99_09/t -f /home/aprk/src/mod_perl-1.99_09/t/conf/httpd.conf -DAPACHE2 using Apache/2.0.47 (prefork MPM) waiting for server to start: ..[Fri Aug 01 22:34:36 2003] [info] 19 Apache:: modules loaded [Fri Aug 01 22:34:36 2003] [info] 3 APR:: modules loaded [Fri Aug 01 22:34:36 2003] [info] base server + 8 vhosts ready to run tests .. waiting for server to start: ok (waited 2 secs) server SAM:8529 started server SAM:8530 listening (TestProtocol::echo_filter) server SAM:8531 listening (TestProtocol::echo) server SAM:8532 listening (TestPreConnection::note) server SAM:8533 listening (TestFilter::in_str_msg) server SAM:8534 listening (TestFilter__both_str_con_add) server SAM:8535 listening (TestFilter::in_bbs_msg) server SAM:8536 listening (TestDirective::perlmodule) server SAM:8537 listening (TestDirective::perlrequire) server SAM:8538 listening (TestDirective::perlloadmodule4) server SAM:8539 listening (TestDirective::perlloadmodule5) server SAM:8540 listening (TestDirective::perlloadmodule3) server SAM:8541 listening (TestDirective::perlloadmodule6) apache/add_config..ok apache/cgihandler..ok apache/conftreeok apache/constants...ok apache/postok apache/readok apache/scanhdrsok apache/scanhdrs2...ok apache/send_cgi_header.ok apache/subprocess..ok apache/write...ok api/access.ok api/aplog..ok api/conn_rec...ok api/lookup_uri.ok api/lookup_uri2ok api/module.ok api/r_subclass.ok api/request_recok api/response...ok api/rutil..ok api/sendfile...ok api/server_rec.ok api/server_utilok api/uriok apr/base64.ok apr/constants..ok apr/date...ok apr/netlib.ok apr/os.ok apr/pool...ok apr/socket.ok apr/string.ok apr/table..ok apr/threadmutexskipped all skipped: Perl was not built with 'ithreads' enabled apr/util...ok apr/uuid...ok compat/apache..ok compat/apache_file.ok compat/apache_tableok compat/apache_uri..ok compat/apache_util.ok compat/conn_authen.ok compat/request.ok compat/request_bodyok compat/send_fd.ok directive/env..ok directive/perl.ok directive/perldo...ok directive/perlloadmodule...ok directive/perlloadmodule2..ok directive/perlloadmodule3..ok directive/perlloadmodule4..ok directive/perlloadmodule5..ok directive/perlloadmodule6..ok directive/perlmodule...ok directive/perlrequire..ok directive/pod..ok directive/setupenv.ok error/api..ok error/runtime..ok error/syntax...ok filter/both_str_con_addok filter/both_str_req_addok
