Hey Jim --
Also, Randal Schwartz wrote about cvs is a slightly more general
setting:

Got a phone call yesterday from a user who was complaining that every few
times a link was clicked on they were getting an Internal Server Error.
They could click back, try again, and be successful. Further investigation

I'd like to write some status messages to the error_log during server
startup. So, I tried
Apache-server-log_error( ... )
but it doesn't work. This works fine in the child processes. Is the log

not work either.
I've been successfully using Apache::Reload for a few weeks now. However, I

I'm experiencing a really strange problem with Apache::AuthCookie and
Internet Explorer. Every now and then when I try and access a protected
URL, I never see the login page.
If I close the window, and open a new one, it works just fine. This is the
case even if there are other windows open.
I had this same problem with installing some precompiled packages from
sunfreeware, such as libdb. My only recommendation is to scrap the
installed packages for anything related to perl, including perl itself.
And note that even though it says that Perl was compiled with GCC, the

Ok, so continuing down the path of a single sign-on system, I've completed a
rough framework, and it works fine. However, I thought it might be nice to
segregate the various bits of information into different cookies.
Unfortunately, setting multiple cookies doesn't seem to be working. Here

Yup, just confirmed it. 1.3.20 works fine, but .24 is busted.
I'll try the latest CVS version.

A note: since cookie is involved, why not to implement
all the access/authentication/authurization functions at
the access control phase using cookie ?
I've got them split out to match the phase in which they'd be invoked.
That, and the fact that the access handler will be invoked

override this behaviour?
What's the best way to do this? I can always stuff some code into my main

Thanks.

Thanks for the point at Class::Singleton. I would have eventually written
my own, but with CPAN, what's the point?

get_instance() would create the backing object the first time, then
returned the cached object on subsequent calls.
Thoughts?
