Handler without handler()
I have a handler that I want to contain all of my methods for access control, authentication and authorization. I have created the file with 3 different methods named access($$), authentication($$) and authorization($$). I have these methods set up thusly in the httpd.conf file: Directory /usr/local/cgi-bin PerlHandler Apache::Registry AuthType Me::MyHandler AuthName Me PerlAccessHandler Me::MyHandler-access PerlAuthenHandler Me::MyHandler-authenticate PerlAuthzHandler Me::MyHandler-authorize PerlInitHandler Apache::StatINC PerlSetVar StatINCDebug On require valid-user /Directory Unfortunately, every time I try and access a cgi in that directory, I get the following errors: Can't locate object method "access" via package "Me::MyHandler" access.pm: Can't locate access.pm in @INC So I have a couple of questions: 1) Can I write a handler that doesn't have a method named 'handler'? 2) If so, what do I have to put in the httpd.conf file to allow Apache to properly access the handler methods? Thanks, Gene Dascher

Yes, you can write a handler that doesn't have a sub named 'handler'. 2) If so, what do I have to put in the httpd.conf file to allow Apache to properly access the handler methods? I believe you need to specify the subroutine. Otherwise the handler sub is assumed. Thanks, Gene Dascher ~Sean
Re: Handler without handler()
I believe that you need to load your module first, either in a startup file or with PerlModule Me::MyHandler Gene Dascher wrote: I have a handler that I want to contain all of my methods for access control, authentication and authorization.
