Apache2::AuthCookie - semantics of WhatEverPath parameter?
Every example for Apache2::AuthCookie shows ... WhatEverPath / ... but I can find nothing that explains what the value "/" represents. Is it a URI? Later in the sample configs we see URIs to which protection applies are defined by or tags, How does the value of this parameter affect the behavior of AuthCookie, and under what circumstances would its value not be "/"?

To get the VirtualHost level variables you must use the RequestRec. Makes sense, I guess.

My handler script (Album.pm) retrieves the variables with
my $s = Apache2::ServerUtil->server;
my $app_dir = $s->dir_config('app_dir');
my $template_dir = $app_dir . $s->dir_config('template_dir');
However it's getting empty strings for the values. This was working
when the PerlSetVar directives were outside the VirtualHost block.
According to the documentation
https://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#mod_perl_Directives_Argument_Types_and_Allowed_Location
PerlSetVar is scoped "DIR" meaning it can appear in Directory,
Location or Files blocks. What am I doing wrong?

Apache2::Reload not included, cannot build?
I wanted to use Apache2::Reload but find that it's not included with the base mod_perl distribution (at least on Centos 6.6). No problem, I'll just fire up cpan and build it: cpan[1]> install Apache2::Reload CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.20) Reading '/root/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Thu, 09 Jul 2015 19:54:32 GMT Running install for module 'Apache2::Reload' CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok (v5.833) CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.9721) Fetching with LWP: http://www.perl.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SH/SHAY/Apache-Reload-0.13.tar.gz CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.70) CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.47) Fetching with LWP: http://www.perl.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SH/SHAY/CHECKSUMS Checksum for /root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/S/SH/SHAY/Apache-Reload-0.13.tar.gz ok Scanning cache /root/.cpan/build for sizes DONE CPAN: Archive::Tar loaded ok (v1.58) Apache-Reload-0.13/ Apache-Reload-0.13/Changes Apache-Reload-0.13/lib/ Apache-Reload-0.13/lib/Apache/ Apache-Reload-0.13/lib/Apache/Reload.pm Apache-Reload-0.13/lib/Apache2/ Apache-Reload-0.13/lib/Apache2/Reload.pm Apache-Reload-0.13/LICENSE Apache-Reload-0.13/Makefile.PL Apache-Reload-0.13/MANIFEST Apache-Reload-0.13/META.json Apache-Reload-0.13/META.yml Apache-Reload-0.13/README Apache-Reload-0.13/RELEASE Apache-Reload-0.13/t/ Apache-Reload-0.13/t/all.t Apache-Reload-0.13/t/conf/ Apache-Reload-0.13/t/conf/extra.last.conf.in Apache-Reload-0.13/t/lib/ Apache-Reload-0.13/t/lib/Apache/ Apache-Reload-0.13/t/lib/Apache/TestReload.pm Apache-Reload-0.13/t/lib/Apache2/ Apache-Reload-0.13/t/lib/Apache2/TestReload.pm Apache-Reload-0.13/t/reload.t CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.22) CPAN: CPAN::Meta::Requirements loaded ok (v2.133) CPAN: Parse::CPAN::Meta loaded ok (v1.40) CPAN: Module::CoreList loaded ok (v2.18) Configuring S/SH/SHAY/Apache-Reload-0.13.tar.gz with Makefile.PL Undefined subroutine &Symbol::gensym called at Makefile.PL line 91.
