mod_perl 2.x/perl 5.6.x ?

I'm more of a perl end user and plead ignorance in actually understanding what goes on behind the scenes. In the process of considering upgrading to perl 5.6 and according to a recent message I see its going to be required for mod_perl 2.x anyways so I guess its a good time to start migrating in t

Re: modperl interfering with php

D'oh! ...so PerlHandler is the only hook that requires an apache SetHandler directive (in which case you run into the no-stacked-handlers problem), and all the others only need the appropriate Perl*Handler directive? maybe I didn't RTFM as well as I thought... thanks! darius On 4/20/00 at

Deep recursion on subroutine "Apache::Constants::AUTOLOAD"

Anyone understand why perl -we 'use Apache::Constants; Apache::Constants::OK();' causes this problem?

if you can find the problem, LET ME KNOW. i'm on the verge of a breakdown. at the end of my http.conf i've got: PerlRequire "startup.pl" the entire listing for startup.pl is: package Apache::ReadConfig; Apache->httpd_conf("Clavis"); Apache->httpd_conf("");

Hey, I like the mod_proxy module in reverse httpd accel mode, but am interested in having some nicer failure capabilities. I have hacked in this kind of stuff before but was wondering if anyone had any official patch for this kind of stuff. The nicety under consideration is having the mod_

DSN/ASP problems on Appache/RH 61

Hi Everyone, How do you set up a system DSN (Data Source Name) on a linux box so that ASP (active server pages) will "talk" to it? I have followed all of the Apache::ASP instructions as closely as possible. I can get most http pages with .asp to work, but several which involve DB generation and

I've written a handler to do some auth work. It's implimented in a .htaccess with PerlAuthHandler. In the package, I set a couple of ENV keys for use by any pages/scripts in the request. Well, I have 3 different page types that can load under this auth system, CGI, mod_perl, and an internal thing

I'm writing a handler wherein the REMOTE_USER string needs to be changed (after authentication) to another string so the CGI can continue on its merry way. In order to do this, I used $r->subprocess_env to set the variable. Unfortunately, this doesn't work. Something is rewriting the REMOTE
