Location, filename, path_info
Hey ho I have a simple configuration: PerlModule Test::FH SetHandler perl-script PerlResponseHandler Test::FH Now I go to the URL http://www.myhost.com/xyz/abc/qqq/123 Inside my code I want to get "/ggg/123" so I try print "Request: " . $r->path_info . "\n"; This returns "/abc/ggg/123" Now it always drops the top level "/xyz" - assumably because it is effectively a file in the root directory. One way to fix it is to create all the directories, but not too many. Now what I really want is anything after what ever the location that the handler is set in. I can achieve this with a variable that sets the location, but that seemed a little redundant. Effectively I am creating a "virtual" location. Is there a way I can configure or get the Location ?

Are you saying that /xyz does exist in your document root? I've found that Apache won't work if you mix a virtual directory, real directory and path_info. This is because PATH_INFO is what ever is left over after url => file name mapping. If there's no real file, then apache removes the value, else it removes the part that is a real file/directory. If you want a virtual directory, make sure that there are no real directories of the same name. -- Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP

How to detect if a module is loaded from the master apache
Hi, I want to distinguish between the 2 cases if a module is loaded from the master apache or at runtime from a child apache. Ideads for both mp1.x and mp2.x are welcome. I tried to call ModPerl::Util::current_callback with mp2.0.2 just after compilation and a segfault. Thanks, Torsten pgpmwG67dKTo4.pgp Description: PGP signature
Transforming request to HTTP/1.1
Hello,
I'm trying to transform a not-really-HTTP request (first line containing
method differs) to HTTP using PerlTransHandler, like this:
sub Trans::handler {
my ($r) = @_;
my $method = $r->method;
if ($r->method eq 'FOO') {
$r->server->method_register($method);
$r->method('POST');
$r->filename(1);
$r->uri('/');
return Apache2::Const::OK;
}
return Apache2::Const::DECLINED;
}
So, if client sends "FOO blah whatever", I would like it to be changed
to "POST / HTTP/1.1".
But... this doesn't quite work. $r->protocol for these requests
contains "HTTP/0.9". The difference is: HTTP headers are neither
printed nor generated ($r->headers_out is empty).
Can I force HTTP/1.1 in PerlTransHandler somehow?
If not, can I force headers to be generated (without doing that manually)?
I've tried Apache2::SubRequest, but succeeded only with segfaults (after
$subreq->run).
My response handler:
sub Resp::handler {
my ($r) = @_;
warn $r->protocol;
$r->content_type("text/plain");
$r->status(200);
$r->print("foo\nbar\n");
return Apache2::Const::OK;
}
Configuration:
SetHandler modperl
PerlTransHandlerTrans
PerlResponseHandler Resp
I know I could get it done using filters, but writing them is a pain...

how to use mod_perl sections with mod_jk?
So I'm trying to make a great deal of my httpd.conf dynamic based primarily on hostname etc. I have most of it working but I've found that at least in my case I cannot use mod_jk directives in a perl section. Q. Should I be able to use mod_jk directives in a perl section? push @JkWorkerProperty, [qw(worker.myWorker.port $workerPort)]; also I often want to do Apache->module() but how would I do say an Include where the value was set in a perl stanza but the Include will be outside the perl stanza. Failing that can I "Include" static httpd.conf snippests in a perl section with say Apache->include()? Point is the path varies so I want to include where my variable has scope.

When I go for the first time to http://localhost/debitor/ or http://localhost/debitor/documents I see Authentication Handler too.

Mostly you can think of sections as Authentication, Authorization, and Handler (there are others of course, especially filters, fixup handlers and more - but the first three are the most common). So if you have: Auth... Handler Debitor::Documents Handler Debitor Then the Auth handler will not be effected by the other entries because they are not changing that slot - the Auth Slot.

So if you did it in the order you had in your original mail - the Debitor::Document handler would never get run. Hope that kind of makes sense.

Personally I use a more flexible approach - I don't want to have to put
the whole website structure inside httpd.conf, because every change
requires a re-start. Also, you will probably have common startup and
exit code in each handler.
So you could try something like this:
PerlResponseHandler My::Module
then
sub handler {
# common startup code - check database connection is up, check
config has been read, etc
# check URI
if uri is for static files
return DECLINED
else
call the code for that URI
# common exit code - clean up etc
}
You could even do something really clever and make it map URI onto
module - eg. so /debitor/contract/create calls
Debitor::Contract->create(), but that wouldn't be very secure!
