Re: HTTP and MPM support
Hi William! Count on us, my firm can sponsor work as I stated before, and also contribute setting up test cases and perhaps also do some coding if we have the knowledge to do whats needed. My coders are not used to be part of any open source project, so we can not take any leading roll though. How could a sponsor model work? I have followed crypto world for some time now, and they sometimes set up price for someone thats achieve a goal. Something we can do here? /Sive
Re: HTTP and MPM support
Hi! Perhaps in the same boat? Our company can sponsor between $1000 - $1 to a project developing modPerl 3 (Perl 6 + stabil mpm-worker/event) If some more in the boat can tribute also it would be awasame ... /Sive

Re: mod_perl: How pass variables (objects) from page to page?

I don't want to re-instantiate my objects on every page request, and I don't want the overhead of serializing my objects to a persistent store from page to page (I use A LOT of objects). I've done extensive reseach and I've not found any application space to store objects indefinitly. I can't believe Perl doesn't support keeping objects in RAM. This would de-qualify Perl for half of the projects I need to develop. Peter Alvin Hi! Have looked around like you for a solution to this, without finding one and after discussing it internally, we thought that the optimal can be to write a custom reversed modproxy server that talks directly to the perl code ... perhaps as a open software project Perhaps there are such project already? but folks at this list should know :) ...

Is there a bug in Apache 2, ModPerl 2 or APR for data larger than 64k?
Hi! Have used mod_perl 2.0 and newer for a while and it have worked very well on Mac OS X and Free BSD servers. Now on a Xserve with Mac Os 10.4 the following happens. Requesting a web page with little contents works okey but an bigger contents the loading always stops in the middle with the following error message in error_log. (35)Resource temporarily unavailable: core_output_filter: writing data to the network The error is coming in different places in the code but always about half the page so searching the web I found some stuff. x-tad-smaller/x-tad-smallerx-tad-smallerThere is a bug in APR 0.9.6 that is present when it is running on Tiger, and shows up when you attempt to check out a file larger than 64K./x-tad-smallerx-tad-smaller /x-tad-smallerhttp://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#tiger-apr-0.9.6' x-tad-bigger /x-tad-biggerIf this the cause of our problem I sought that by installing the latest versions of mod_perl and apache2 (SERVER_SOFTWARE = Apache/2.1.6 (Unix) mod_perl/2.0.2-dev Perl/v5.8.6) could fix this. but no I also tried setting a environment variable before configuring Apache and modPerl2 suggested as fix above. Currently, the best solution is to rebuild Apache from their respective sources, setting the following environment variable before running configure for Apache in Bourne shell syntax, like this: x-tad-smallerac_cv_func_poll=no; export ac_cv_func_poll/x-tad-smaller Now I have no more ideas about what to do any suggestions? What APR version is there in latest mod_perl? Can the bug above still be there or ... Thanks in forehand! Sive
Re: Is there a bug in Apache 2, ModPerl 2 or APR for data larger than 64k?
Hi! As it seem that the bug is in libapr you should make sure to use the latest. It's possible that you are still using the old library.
