Ok, in the libapreq module I did the configure ./configure --with-apache-includes=/usr/includes/apache make make install Everything compiled just fine.

It's hard to generalize because in some cases the shared object file may actually not be installed. However, there should probably be something in the documentation that tells the user to make sure that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and/or the /etc/ld.so.conf file include the usual default installation paths for required packages. -DeAngelo -Original Message- From: Perrin Harkins [mailto:perrin;elem.com] Sent: Friday, November 08, 2002 1:10 PM To: DeAngelo Lampkin Cc: mod_perl Mailing List Subject: Re: Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (via Mason)...SOLVED DeAngelo Lampkin wrote: And of course the other reason is that if the solution to the problem was so obvious from the error message, somebody would have posted a solution before I figured it out (with help from you guys).

RE: Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (via Mason)...SOLVED
Huh? It tells you EXACTLY what is wrong. No, not really. One reason is that it's not immediately clear (to me) which file can't be loaded. Is it Request.so or libapreq.so.1 that can't be loaded? This ambiguity is further blurred when you know both files are installed. And of course the other reason is that if the solution to the problem was so obvious from the error message, somebody would have posted a solution before I figured it out (with help from you guys). Searching the mailing list archives indicates that method name resolution is not exacly a new problem with mod_perl. Just ask this guy = http://lists.fsck.com/pipermail/rt-users/2002-September.txt. It's the exact same problem with the exact same error message, only in different clothing (he's having trouble with the Apache::Cookie object rather than the Apache::Request object). In the interest of full disclosure, other possible solutions include resetting /etc/ld.so.conf or the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to include more places to look for shared object files (only recently figured this out). But again, unless you're somewhat experienced or have encountered this class of bug before, this won't necessarily be the obvious place to look at first. Anyway enough of my babbling. Now that the answer is out there, hopefully it'll help out the poor souls who run into this issue in the future.

My suggestion did come about because it appeared that Apache::Request wasn't being loaded at all. I'm not exacly sure how that happened as Mason's ApacheRequest attempts to require() Apache::Request a couple of places. But just the same, my suggestion to pre-load Apache::Request, as well as any other lib you normally use, stands.

You need to set Mason up better - probably. I'm an avid Mason user, and I've seen this a fair few times. If you want help, you're most likely to get it on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list. However if you want to tell me the version of mason you're using it might help. You could use a mason-handler.pl with Mason 1.12 ( or 1.15) and the new Lexer / Compiller components.

RE: Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (via Mason)...
What version of perl ?
Post 1.12 Mason has problems with perl 5.6.0 I believe ( or maybe .1 as
well )
You're quite right about the problem not necessarily being a mason one.
However as a mason user - you're likely to get help there all the same on
things that are border line mason ( the new Request object is created IN
ApacheHanler.pm )
Try this:
Change your httpd.conf to use a mason-handler.
Create a mason-handler.pl in either your @INC or your apache root.
I put mine in the later ( /etc/httpd/ on my system ).
Make sure the ownership / permissions of the mason-handler allow execution
( chmod +x if you must )
httpd.conf
-
PerlRequire mason-handler.pl
Directory /var/virtual/www.mason-site.com
FilesMatch \.(html|js|css)$
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler HTML::Mason
/FilesMatch
/Directory
mason-handler.pl
-
package HTML::Mason;
use HTML::Mason;
use HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler();
use strict;
my $ah = new HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler (
comp_root='/var/virtual/www.mason-site.com/'
data_dir='/var/virtual/HTML-Mason/data'
);
chown ( 99, 99, $ah-interp-files_written );
{
package HTML::Mason::Commands;
use HTML::Entities;
use vars qw($global1 $global2 $global3);
$_escape = sub { my $text = join '', @_;
HTML::Mason::Escapes::basic_html_escape(\$text); return $text }
}
1;
sub handler
{
my ($r) = @_;
return -1 if $r-content_type $r-content_type =~ m|^image/|i;
$ah-handle_request($r);
}
==
That's akin to what we use.
Obviously change the /var/virtual to whatever you use as your root - and
HTML-Mason is just where I wanted to keep our data for cache and stuff.
The $globals are just examples.
Once you've done this - let me know if you still get the same problem.
Remember to keep copies of all files you change.
I'd advice RCS/CVS ( i use the former ) for things like httpd.conf if you
want to keep it tidy.

Gareth

RE: Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (via Mason)...SOLVED
Thanks to Tim, Gareth, and Phillippe: OK, I'll start with the solution to the problem and then drag on a bit for how I found it. The problem was the location of a shared object file for the Apache Request object. A file called libapreq.so.1 was located in /usr/local/lib (should have been in /usr/lib), which was ok for the test script that Phillippe gave me and the one-liner that Gareth gave me, but was apparently NOT ok for Mason in the context of mod_perl. I didn't figure this out until I tried Tim's suggestion of preloading the Apache::Request module inside of httpd.conf. I ended up getting this thing: Syntax error on line 362 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf: Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Apache/Request/Request.so' for module Apache::Request: libapreq.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/mod_perl.pm line 14 Compilation failed in require at (eval 4) line 3. This isn't the most helpful error message in the world. However, I knew Request.so and libapreq.so.1 were installed, but I didn't know if they were in places that the server process expected them to be. So did a search for all the shared object files and noticed libapreq.so.1 file was sitting all by itself in /usr/local/lib, while about a billion other shared object files were inside of /usr/lib. I moved libapreq.so.1 to the place where all the other cool shared object files hung out, crossed my fingers, and booya! It worked. Apprently something about the way I configured the installation for libapreq was not very Mason friendly. Anyway, thanks again for the help.

As a quick follow-up, the PerlModule Apache::Request line is NOT needed in the httpd.conf file for Mason to work. However, it was a very valuable debugging tool. That wasn't really the purpose, though. The purpose was to pre-load the module in the parent apache process for efficiency. My suggestion did come about because it appeared that Apache::Request wasn't being loaded at all. I'm not exacly sure how that happened as Mason's ApacheRequest attempts to require() Apache::Request a couple of places. But just the same, my suggestion to pre-load Apache::Request, as well as any other lib you normally use, stands.

Re: Can't locate object method new via package Apache::Request (via Mason)...
Seems somewhat similar to a bug I've reported 10 months ago.
You might want to try to run the minimal testcase enclosed in the
forwarded mail.
Phil.
---BeginMessage---
I've found that mod_perl can get confused when dealing with method
calls during a redirect_internal phase:
1. page /1 uses method calls, and works when accessed as /1
2. an other page /R uses internal_redirect to go to /1, and mod_perl
fails with an undefined subroutine error.
This has been seen on:
apache 1.3.9-14, perl 5.004.05-1.1, and mod_perl 1.25-3 (Debian potato)
and on:
apache 1.3.22-2.1, perl 5.6.1-6, and mod_perl 1.26-1 (Debian woody/testing)
How to reproduce:
Use this startup.pl file:
==
# Common
package Common;
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
sub handler($$)
{
my $self = shift;
my $req = shift;
$req-content_type('text/plain');
$req-send_http_header();
$req-print($self-doit());
return OK;
}
sub doit
{
return COMMON;
}
# Common::Impl1
package Common::Impl1;
ISA=qw(Common);
sub doit
{
return IMPL1\n;
}
# Common::Impl2;
package Common::Impl2;
ISA=qw(Common);
sub doit
{
return IMPL2\n;
}
# Redir
package Redir;
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
sub handler
{
my $req = shift;
$req-internal_redirect(/1);
return OK;
}
1;
==
PerlRequire the above, and use the following apache configuration:
==
Location /0
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Common
/Location
Location /1
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Common::Impl1
/Location
Location /2
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Common::Impl2
/Location
Location /R
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Redir
/Location
PerlRequire startup.pl
==
Then, directing a web browser to /0 prints COMMON, to /1 prints IMPL1,
to /2 prints IMPL2, as expectected.
Similarly, when pointing to /R (which redirects internally to /1),
IMPL1 should appear.
However, I get a 500 Internal server error and this in the logs:
[error] Undefined subroutine Common::Impl1::handler called at
startup.pl line 49.
I've tried to debug the problem, and the problem lies inside
perl_handler_ismethod() in src/modules/perl/mod_perl.c: it returns
different values when called from inside the internal_redirect than
called without internal_redirect.
Inside perl_handler_ismethod():
if(!sub) return 0;
sv = newSVpv(sub,0);
if(!(cv = sv_2cv(sv, stash, gv, FALSE))) {
GV *gvp = gv_fetchmethod(pclass, sub);
if (gvp) cv = GvCV(gvp);
sv_2cv() returns different values when called from inside an
internal_redirect than called without
internal_redirect. Unfortunately, I could not grok sv_2cv(). It's not
even documented in the perl docs.
Phil.

Re: Can't locate object method cleanup_for_exec via package Apache
You might be able to do what you want without forking, and without tying up your apache process while the database sync takes place. Just write a server process using something like IO::Socket or POE (see http://poe.perl.org). Have the mod_perl handler send a message to the separate server process to start the long-running job. You might even be able to query the server process from mod_perl to check on the status of said job, to report the status to the web browser.I started work on this sort of solution last spring, and it looked feasible, but I got pulled to a different project before I could fully implement it. I'm curious to see what others think of this approach. HTH, Wes Sheldahl Mike P. Mikhailov [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 10/08/2001 10:46:41 AM Please respond to Mike P.

Can you pelase tell me the possible cause of this error.
Apache::DBI is up to date as perl CPAN.
this is fine. You are not running in mod_perl environment. A possible
remedy is to:
if ($ENV{MOD_PERL}){
# put all the staff that requires mod_perl in here
# e.g. Apache::DBI
}
This is not a fix, this just makes sure that you don't attempt to run
mod_perl modules if you haven't configured mod_perl.
This checking is placed into startup.pl. That's the file that you
PerlRequire from httpd.conf.
Another simpler approach is to put the following at the top of the
startup.pl file:
die no mod_perl :( unless $ENV{MOD_PERL};
You problem is that you probably haven't configured Apache to run
mod_perl or you may even not installed the mod_perl at all. The mod_perl
guide features a section with 1001 ways to check that mod_perl is
running. See the ttp://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html chapter
Hope this clear this issue.

RE: Can't locate object method No via package such
Shoulda thought about your answer first, Doug. :-)
I see this type of message ("error at /dev/null") when my mod_perl scripts
give warnings -w style instead of $r-warn. For example, HTML::Embperl, or
Apache::Registry both do this.
The nature of the error message sez to me there is a mishandled error
somewhere, like possibly an eval that is turning into a method call:
eval { # read file here
# file doesn't exist
# error is
No such file or directory
# which is parsed by perl to something like:
# such-No (file or directory)
};
Which further tends to suggest that a necessary environment variable for SSL
is either not defined or pointing to the wrong place??
I would suggest *never* disregarding configtest errors... one poorly
indicative error message can be the final gasp of a long string of errors
caused by a simple typo or whatever several layers deep.
Good luck!

looks to me like /dev/null is broken. if you run:
% cat /dev/null
Good try, but /dev/null is not broken on my machine.
I finally gave up and eliminated the DSO version by compiling two
versions of httpd. Both include mod_ssl but the Engine is only turned
on with the light server.
I did find a slight problem when running `configtest' but I doubt that
that could have been the problem.

The compile had no warnings or errors except a `assignment discards `const' from pointer target type' warning. I've grepped the source for all (including openssl) and find nothing that might emit this error. Can I get a recommendation of where to look next? This is pretty funny. Somehow an error message "No such something-or-other" is being interpreted as Perl code. I don't know why it thinks the file is /dev/null, but I'd grep for "No such" in your code and see where that error message might be issued/misinterpreted. ------ Ken Williams Last Bastion of Euclidity [EMAIL PROTECTED]The Math Forum

the mod_perl cvs snapshot defines a BINMODE stub (5.6.0 added this tied
filehandle method). you don't need that to cure, remove the call to
binmode or add this code to a startup file:
sub Apache::BINMODE {}
