segmentation fault when using custom config module
Relevant info:
Apache: 1.3.12
mod_perl: 1.24
Perl: 5.00503
gcc 2.95.1 on Linus 2.2.18pre19
I created a module that contains custom configs with the following code:
package HTML::Mason::Dispatcher;
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
use Apache::ExtUtils;
use Apache::src;
my @directives = ( { name = 'MasonCompRoot',
errmsg = 'The directory that is the Mason component
root',
args_how = 'TAKE1',
req_override = 'RSRC_CONF',
},
{ name = 'MasonDataDir',
errmsg = 'The Mason data directory',
args_how = 'TAKE1',
req_override = 'RSRC_CONF',
},
{ name = 'MasonArgsMethod',
errmsg = 'The method used to process arguments (CGI.pm or
mod_perl)',
args_how = 'TAKE1',
req_override = 'RSRC_CONF',
},
);
local $^W;
Apache::ExtUtils::command_table(\@directives);
WriteMakefile( NAME= 'HTML::Mason::Dispatcher',
VERSION_FROM = 'Dispatcher.pm',
INC = Apache::src-new-inc,
);
The Dispatcher.pm files contains the following code:
package HTML::Mason::Dispatcher;
use strict;
use Apache::ModuleConfig ();
use DynaLoader ();
use HTML::Mason;
use vars qw($VERSION $AH @ISA);
$VERSION = '0.01';
@ISA = qw(DynaLoader);
use constant DEBUG = 1;
__PACKAGE__-bootstrap($VERSION) if $ENV{MOD_PERL};
sub MasonCompRoot ($$$)
{
my ($cfg, $params, $comp_root) = @_;
$cfg-{Mason}{comp_root} = $comp_root;
}
sub MasonDataDir ($$$)
{
my ($cfg, $params, $data_dir) = @_;
$cfg-{Mason}{data_dir} = $data_dir;
}
sub MasonArgsMethod ($$$)
{
my ($cfg, $params, $method) = @_;
unless ( $method eq 'CGI' || $method eq 'mod_perl' )
{
die "Invalid MasonArgsMethod param: $method\n";
}
eval "use HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler ( args_method = '$method' )";
die $@ if $@;
}
sub handler
{
eval "use HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler;" unless $HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler::VERSION;
my $r = shift;
unless ($AH)
{
my $cfg = Apache::ModuleConfig-get($r);
my $interp = HTML::Mason::Interp-new( parser = HTML::Mason::Parser-new,
comp_root = $cfg-{Mason}{comp_root},
data_dir = $cfg-{Mason}{data_dir} );
$AH = HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler( interp = $interp );
}
return $AH-handle_request($r);
}
--
My config file contains the following:
Perl
use lib '/home/autarch/mason-CVS/mason/dist/lib';
/Perl
PerlModule HTML::Mason::Dispatcher
MasonCompRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs
MasonDataDir /usr/local/apache_mp/mason
MasonArgsMethod mod_perl
FilesMatch "\.mhtml$"
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler HTML::Mason::Dispatcher
/FilesMatch
---
Anyway, the configuration directives piece works fine. I added warn
statements in the relevant functions and it confirmed that were indeed
being called with the correct values.
However, when I make a request to a URL that would call the handler
method, I get a segmentation fault.
I recompiled mod_perl with tracing and set MOD_PERL_TRACE=all. The trace
was pretty uninteresting. Here's what I got when starting the server:

Interesting idea. Hadn't though of it. Can't say I'd be able to commit much, more of a lurker. But you have my moral support! One thing though. last time I used the DAV module it was deathly slow.

Another thought, is if you add in file support, that you could heed User and Group directives when writing files (mod_dav does, and will not). -Original Message- From: Joao Pedro Goncalves [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2000 11:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: WebDAV support in mod_perl Hi, is there any current project going on for using the WebDAV protocol in mod_perl, something like Apache::WebDAV?

2 servers based on .htaccess authentication
We are finally planning to "do the right thing" and have a light weight and heavy weight server. Our problem is that our (immediate) users set up the protections for each directory with .htaccess files - and they use PerlAuthzHandler and PerlAuthenHandlers - so to decide if a file can be delivered requires modperl. So the solution I have come up with is to proxyPass any request requiring authentication to the modperl server. Any existing solution is welcome! The approach I am trying though is: - write an authentication module (in C) to add to the light weight server. All it does is bunce the request to the heavy server. This is figuring if apache invokes this module authentication is being attemtped. Problem: something is still seeing and complaining about the PerlAuthenHandler stuff. I have pulled (I believe) all the other authentation and authorization modules - why and which apache aspect might be doing this??? A concern: in my module I do a REDIRECT to the heavy weight. Doesn't this go back to the browser? How do I do a proxyPass in C like the rewrite setup does so well??

Apache Session and Lock files
Hi everyone, After tying a hash variable to a session, and writing to it, I would like to undef my hash variable just to make sure that the session lock file is deleted. However, when I do this, then any changes I make to the session hash don't get saved. If I don't undef the session hash, then the session data remains but I end up eventually with lots of lock files in my tmp directory. Has anyone run across this and come up with a solution. I set Commit = 1 on my Tie command, and I commit changes to my database, but the data still disappears if I undefine the hash. Thanks in advance... - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: 2 servers based on .htaccess authentication
If you are using shared repositories for the front-end and heavy server you can modify the filename used for .htaccess in the apache config file. (See the AccessFileName entry) So, you could put the config for the heavy server in .htaccess_heavy and the front-end config in .htaccess.

This is so cool.
I've written mod_perl handlers for a few different phases, but I've never really worried about speed increases for plain content. I recently migrated from a cgi script in my cgi-bin that handles content to a Apache::Registry script that does the same thing. On my puny 150MHz Pentium, 96MBytes RAM machine, I was getting about 4.5 requests answered per second with a normal cgi script. After moving it to Apache::Registry and moving into the /perl/ directory, I can easily get 13-18 requests answered per second. That isn't too bad. Once I get this translated into a complete mod_perl handler, I will probably see an enormous increase. Thanks for listening. Jon -- J. J. Horner [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The people who vote decide nothing.

Since Perl can be embedded (i.e. apps can call into it to exec code), then you could implement a mod_dav backend in Perl. That would save you a bunch of time over trying to do all the protocol work. The mod_dav in Apache 2.0 has a better dynamic-load plugin/backend story, but mod_dav 1.0 (which is built for Apache 1.3) still has all the same features/functionality for backends. Issues: what will be required to implement DeltaV (I need concurrent checkouts and versioning) as well? All of this is being developed within the mod_dav as part of Apache 2.0. Through the plugin mechanism, we'll be using Subversion (SVN) (http://subversion.tigris.org/) as the backend. SVN will be using DeltaV as the network protocol, and Apache 2.0 as the network server. There is also some DeltaV work going on in the CVS version of mod_dav, with much of the same backend interfaces and code. I wouldn't call any of the mod_dav DeltaV work "cooked" though. I'm going to be testing the Apache 2.0 this week and next, for Milestone 2 of Subversion which occurs at the end of next week. M2 will be a very limited DeltaV server... but that does include checkout and versioning :-) What's up with the expat-lite in Apache conflicting with XML::Parser's expat? The intent is to find time to upgrade Apache to use Expat 1.95.0 and axe the expat-lite stuff. It should work fine (and part of the Expat 1.95 release was specifically to fix the Apache/mod_perl Expat conflict), but time/priority just hasn't happened yet. It should over the next couple weeks, as we're trying to nail down an Apache 2.0 beta and we want to resolve that problem.

Re: 2 servers based on .htaccess authentication
So, you could put the config for the heavy server in .htaccess_heavy and the front-end config in .htaccess. Sorry - didn't make myself clear. The protection on the files are the same - just too complex for the front-end to understand (since use modperl). So if there is any authentication needed I want the front-end to give up and let the heavy server handle it. So even in the model you describe all I want the front-end .htaccess to do is to cause a proxyPass - can that be done is my question / problem. thanks, Bob Waldstein [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Or if you want to share some directives but not others, you can use IfModule mod_perl.c or IfDefined SomeSymbol sections to block one server from reading those portions of the config files. [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Paul Lindner) wrote: If you are using shared repositories for the front-end and heavy server you can modify the filename used for .htaccess in the apache config file.

Our problem is that our (immediate) users set up the protections for each directory with .htaccess files - and they use PerlAuthzHandler and PerlAuthenHandlers - so to decide if a file can be delivered requires modperl. So the solution I have come up with is to proxyPass any request requiring authentication to the modperl server. Any existing solution is welcome! The approach I am trying though is: - write an authentication module (in C) to add to the light weight server. All it does is bunce the request to the heavy server. This is figuring if apache invokes this module authentication is being attemtped. Problem: something is still seeing and complaining about the PerlAuthenHandler stuff. I have pulled (I believe) all the other authentation and authorization modules - why and which apache aspect might be doing this??? A concern: in my module I do a REDIRECT to the heavy weight. Doesn't this go back to the browser? How do I do a proxyPass in C like the rewrite setup does so well??

It will save what you had, but you'll have to go and open it again if you want to use it. You shouldn't need to do this anyway, since I think Apache::Session does an immediate save when you create a new session. Whay are you worried about the lock files?

Changing a file's UID from within an Apache module?
I am creating a mod_perl Apache module. The last functionality that I need to implement is the ability to set the UID of the files and directories which are created and modified by the Apache module to something other than Apache's child UID. For example, if when I built Apache 1.3.14 on Linux 2.2.17, I used: APACI_ARGS=--server-uid=300,--server-gid=300 Later, my module creates a file "myfile.html". I want to change the file's UID from 300 to 3000, from within the Apache module. I was going to set the file permissions to 750 and keep the Apache GID. The directory permissions could be set to 770 in order to let the Apache module create, modify, and delete files within the directories. In this way each file would provide exclusive (modify and create) access rights in a shared user environment. Any ideas about the best way to change the permissions and UID? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi People I have this mysterious problem of my mod_perl scripts giving errors like no such file or directory when I know for a fact that files and directory are there. The files are berkeley db file. The problems first show up in the midst of doing multiple recompiling and reinstallation of mod_perl and apache. They mysteriously disappeared after repeatedly invoking the scripts. However today I attempted changed one of my supposedly obselete dbmopen functions to tie functions and they came right back. So I immediately reinstall the old version. The problems is still there All I did was change dbmopen %A,'file',0644 to use DB_File; tie %A,'file.db' They work fine on the command line. I have mod_perl 1.24_01 apache 1.3.14 linux 2.2.17.

Re: 2 servers based on .htaccess authentication
As long as you can garantee that the URI of the resource is not accessible multiple ways you could use a Location/ directive on the relative path. Trouble with this is my problem arises out of a (deliberate) lack of central control. That is, I have thousands of directories, and the web administrators are allowed to protect them as they please, using .htaccess files. So I cannot maintain any centralized list (as in a apache config file). Actually as I continue to think on it my solution seems reasonable - just haven't figured out yet which part of the light-weight server is complaining about incomprehensible commands in the .htaccess - thought apache would let my module see it before complaining. Hm - maybe I have to go earlier in the cycle so I can say: if (.htaccess control) proxyPass time to get back out the eagle book... bob [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

cgi script vs mod_perl script
I have a script that uses some hash magic to set some variables. It works well in
normal mode, but
when I put it in my /perl directory, it stops working well.
The full script is included. In the script, I set up a hash of variables-subroutines
so that when someone sets a variable, it calles a specific subroutine using
$hash{$value}-()
It doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?

RFC: Apache::Carp - Error Handling under mod_perl
I've done a lot of programming under mod_perl and I got tired of examining the error logs for errors. So I wrote a module that displays to the broswer the error (with a complete call stack) for any fatals or warnings that occur on a development server (similar to using CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);), or emails the site administrator for errors on a production server. This has been released on CPAN as Apache::PageKit::Error, but since it doesn't depend on Apache::PageKit at all, I'm thinking of releasing it as a seperate module. Do you think this is worth doing? What should it be called? Is Apache::Carp a good name?
