You g-billboards.com people need to stop asking the same question over
and over.  If you're looking for Win32 binaries, they are on
http://perl.apache.org/.  If that's not what you're looking for,
please try to ask more clearly.

Re: Using perl source code filter in mod_perl2

 in scripts that are run via ModPerl::Registry?

I don't think that can work because of the way Registry modifies your
code.  Try using handlers instead of Registry scripts, or make your
own subclass of Registry that runs the source filter manually on the
code before turning it into a sub.

Re: Correct way to upload a file

2007-08-11 Thread Mag Gam
I noticed I have to use Apache::Request and Apache::Cookie.
In, http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/RequestRec.html, there is a
$r which is request object. How do I create that? Is there an example
anywhere I can follow?

 CGI is a close second



Re: SV: [mp2+Win32] Frustration over Apache 2.0/ 2.2 restart failure

Hello Perrin, William

Unfortunately I'm packaging a product based on modperl, so I can't 
really take any shortcuts on this one.


William, my installation process is (what I hope to be) straight out of 
the book. To elaborate:

1. Install ActiveState Perl MSI 5.8.8 (build 822)
2. Install Apache2.2.4 MSI
3. Install modperl as per documentation on httpd.apache.org. Ie: perl 
install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/mod_perl.ppd

4. Install libapreq from theoryx5

In my http.conf, I only added the following:
LoadFile c:/Perl/bin/perl58.dll
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

LoadFile bin/libapreq2.dll
LoadModule apreq_module modules/mod_apreq2.so

Apache/ modperl starts up fine, but if I try to restart the service, it 
will not survive.


Please share with me any tips to improve the situation. I'm open to any 
ideas.


Thanks.

The sad truth is that my clients are more comfortable with Windows OS



Is it possible that if they have a small enough site to run
comfortably on Windows, they can run it through CGI?  I suspect that
whatever issue you're having with mod_perl could be fixed, but it
seems pointless to fight with it if the site has low traffic and can
run as CGI.

Foo, you missed my point all together.

Something in YOUR PERL APP is opening resources that are locked and will
prevent another process from obtaining them for approx 60 seconds.

What, why and how are your puzzles, I'm afraid.  There's nothing in the
generic apache/perl/modperl that did this to you.

More debugging logs, finer debugging details might help you pin it down.
