Re: Like-named perl modules in separate directories

* Tim Gerla [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2002-06-26 11:33]:
 I've got a problem with a perl module (.pm) problem on my server. I've
 got two slightly different versions of a file: Conf.pm, in two
 separate places on my server. (Let's call them /home/www/docs/web/cgi/
 and /home/www/docs/minos/cgi/) Mod_perl apparently keeps caching one
 or the other, causing interesting problems if I hit a 'web' script,
 and then a 'minos' script a few minutes later. 
 
 What's the best way to get around this?

Use different namespaces for the two modules.

RTFM :)

You should read the whole mod_perl guide. You'll be out of questions 
afterwards :)
