RE: Trying to find correct format for PerlSetVar's -- or get Apache::AuthNetLDAP working.

[Steve Haslam]

Hi,

(btw threading broken because I'm replying from a digest)

I do multiple "PerlSetVar"s from inside a Location (itself inside a
VirtualHost) like this:

  PerlSetVar => [['User', $user],
 ['Locale', $locale],
 ...
]

I've also had some wierdness happen with mod_perl not reporting syntax
errors and other problems in  sections that I'm now unable to
reproduce :|

.Spare a thought for me because I see the things that you don't see.

oh, I see - setting multiple values within a %Location.  there's no example
of that.  sorry :)

Tie::DxHash out to help.  If you can't get that to work, if your config
allows for it, you could always move the PerlSetVar stuff outside of the
%Location section...

ah, but the answer you seek can be found within... p417

You have to use $r->dir_config('Var') to get the values from the configuration file.
Example:
my $BindDN = $r->dir_config('BindDN');
