GlobalRequest

2003-08-01 Thread Jean-Sebastien Guay 



Hello,

I'm fairly new at mod_perl, and trying to get a 
large number of existing Perl CGI scripts to run on it. I have started by trying 
to start the server with a minimal startup.pl file that just loads one of my 
custom modules (in addition to the ones that were suggested in the mod_perl 
configuration docs). I get this error:

[Fri Aug 01 13:49:05 2003] [error] Global 
$r object is not available. Set: 
PerlOptions +GlobalRequestin httpd.conf at D:/Perl/lib/CGI.pm line 
269.Compilation failed in require at D:/htdocs/startup.pl line 32.BEGIN 
failed--compilation aborted at D:/htdocs/startup.pl line 32.Compilation 
failed in require at (eval 1) line 1.

[Fri Aug 01 13:49:05 2003] [error] Can't 
load Perl file: D:/htdocs/startup.pl forserver bob.bob.com:80, 
exiting...

(of course, startup.pl line 32 is the line where I 
use() my own module) 
Now, from reading the docs (http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#toc_C_GlobalRequest_), 
I saw : 

This setting is enabled by default for sections configured as:
  Location ...
  SetHandler perl-script
  ...
  /Location
Which is my case. And even if I 
add+GlobalRequest to the PerlOptions line in my mod_perl Location section, 
I get the same error. Is there anything else I need to do?


Thanks in advance,

J-S

Make sure you have the very latest CGI.pm.  There were some changes
related to mod_perl 2 recently.
