Re: mod_perl and mod_cgi problems
Thanks! I've actually made some kind of progress on this case... I've found a workaround... I don't fully like it, so if anyone got a sugestion for aprovement, please tell me! This was the "problem area" in my old httpd.conf: (...) AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AddHandler perl-script .mpl PerlHandler Apache::Registry I've converted it into this: AddHandler perl-script .cgi PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun PerlSetVar PerlRunOnce On AddHandler perl-script .mpl PerlHandler Apache::Registry This works fine, but it will only work for perl-scripts and not for shell-scripts. Well, to bad! For the perl-script part it actually runs faster! Apache don't need to fork any new processes to compile the cgi... If I add the following line to my httpd.conf: AddHandler cgi-script .sh This will most likely (not tested) fail like .cgi did when I used cgi-script-handler in apache... So the problem aren't solved yet! Stas Bekman wrote: The latest "Linker patch" are installed on the server... In that case I hope that somebody else who's on Solaris could step in and help. I do hope that someone can explain to me why mod_cgi and mod_perl don't work well together. It worked just fine using apache 1.3.14 and mod_perl 1.X (another version I can't remember). But with apache 1.3.27 and mod_perl 1.27, it didn't.

MaxClients 150 is really high, and you should only set MaxRequestsPerChild to 0 if you're using Apache::SizeLimit or Apache::GTopLimit.

Well, it might be because you have more requests on your production server than on your dev box... Other than that, we can't do much without a little more information.

Start by making sure you really have mod_perl installed and your scripts
are running under it, and not mod_cgi. You can verify this using the
instructions in the guide. One quick way is to check the value of
$ENV{'MOD_PERL'}.
Also, which platform are you on and what are your settings for
MaxClients and MaxRequestsPerChild form httpd.conf?

mod_perl and mod_cgi
Hello! :) I'm webmaster for a small site about /3000 hits and 4 host daily/. I rewrote my cgi scripts for mod_perl/made all global variables local and etc/ following the instructions of mod_perl guide. On my development machine everything was ok, but when I move to productional server the mod_perl version works twice slower than mod_cgi. Please tell me where could be the problem/Apache configuration or my new scripts/ or a way to locate it. Thank you. __ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo! Music Experience http://launch.yahoo.com
