Below is a solution to this problem:
* fork the long running process from mod_perl
* and be able to restart the server
o without killing this process
o without this process keeping the socket busy
and thus preventing the server restart
Thanks to Doug for the hint. You
Has anyone found this module yet?

Stas,
I am sorry I didn't see the 'it has not been released yet'
bit of your message. I read Doug's note, which says:
it's in our cvs tree here at CP, not on CPAN. it shouldn't
be a problem to release this one to CPAN, I'll check.
but I didn't realise that CP wasn't public domain, I just
I read in the guide about Apache::LogSTDERR, but I don't seem
to be able to find it on CPAN. Can anyone tell where I can
find this?

Stas,
I had the following in my code:
my($nOrgPID) = fork;
exit if $nOrgPID;
die "Could not fork: $!" unless defined $nOrgPID;
close STDIN;
close STDOUT;
close STDERR;
setsid() or die "Could not start new session: $!";
but that didn't work, however
On our intranet server I have a page that allows the user to
start a long running process. In order not to hang a httpd
child I fork off the process and detach it from the calling
process. This works fine most of the time.
However in the unusual situation where apache needs to be
restarted
Can someone please confirm if this issue is being looked at.
The modperl digest list is often very helpful and I would
like to keep using it.
For at a few weeks now the digest list has been looking like
this (no topics are listed):

I have managed to get Apache::PerlVINC to work on the

Dave,
you say you have revamped the directives, is that the only
change you have made or are there functional changes as well?
If not what is the advantage of using this new version over
the old one (as I have managed to get that working).

PS. sorry for the late reply, I have been on
The command i use is:

Are sure that cserver fails? I have come across several unix programs that
return 0 on success. You can
Stas,
I just logged on to CPAN to download the latest version of
the guide, and even though CPAN thinks version 1.24 is there
(search for mod_perl_guide) the actual file is not there in
your directory (this was at 11:20 BST (08/06/2000)).
Kees
Stas,
I was searched at search.cpan.org and then followed the link
from there, as far as I know that is a link to www.perl.com.

Stas,
just did another search and now (13:15 BST) it is there.

I have two questions about perl sections:
1) Has setting an entry in the %ENV hash in a perl section
the same effect as using a SetEnv (or PerlSetEnv)
directive (What btw is the difference between SetEnv and
PerlSetEnv, both seem to effect %ENV in the same way.)
2) If the order of

QUESTION: But how should I transform the script, if the

Very simple little example:

Does anyone know of an easy way to get a WindowsNT explorer

I know this is off topic, but have a look at
http://www.alchemy-computing.co.uk/joust/
which is a (free) javascript implementation that gives you
more or less what you want
However, if I'd like to do so, I'd have to split up my httpd.conf
into a part with mod_perl-using-vhosts and a part with the remaining
vhosts and setup 2 startup scripts for 2 separate apache instances,
both listening on port 80 (or 443 for https).
