[Templates] Apache::Template and TT2ServiceModule directive doesn't work insidea Location block
Am I doomed to use one and only one service module? It would be nice to have something like this in my httpd.conf with the service module varying by Location block: Include conf/physemp.affiliate.tt2.conf Location /affiliate/report/basic_stats Options ExecCGI SetHandler perl-script TT2ServiceModule Physemp::Template::Report::UserAccount PerlHandler Apache::Template /Location Is there another way of doing the same thing? Or should I start writing plugins instead?

I do have Perl and DBI installed, though probably not the versions required by Template-Toolkit. OK, here is what I would probably do. I've been using a piece of Apache software called FOP which takes a particular XML format - XSL:FO and converts it to PDF (or other print formats) Now you could use TemplateToolkit to help generate the XSL:FO files. There is nothing in TemplateToolkit that means it has to generate html - it can generate XML too. Now your main problem is that XSL:FO is complicated, and that FOP is a java program. You could potentially kick off a new FOP java instance whenever you had a PDF to generate, or create some kind of server which processed XSL:FO files whenever they were available. The template needs to be XSL:FO rather than PDF - and there is no generic way of converting PDF to XSL:FO. PS I don't see why TemplateToolkit shouldn't work with old versions of perl and DBI.

Here's what I do all the time:
Genereate the html :
my $html = makehtml();
my $pdf = makepdf($html);
Then I runt that through htmldoc via qx() and print an application/pdf header it
actually looks more like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header('application/pdf');
print makepdf(makehtml());
sub makehtml { do database/TT thing here and returnt the results }
sub makepdf { run it through htmldoc like their wite describes and voila! }

[Templates] Apache::Template perl directory configuration
I wish to reuse various templates in toto between different URLs but have different means of providing the information I fill the template with depending on the uri. So far, I've tried using TT2PluginBase and TT2ServiceModule directives inside Location blocks inside my apache configuration file. For example, with TT2PluginBase I'm getting this error: Syntax error on line 27 of /home/ceverett/apache/conf/physemp.affiliate.loc.conf: TT2PluginBase not allowed here using this conf snippet: TT2Params all TT2Headers size TT2Trim On Location /affiliate/report/ Options ExecCGI SetHandler perl-script AuthType Physemp::Auth AuthName Affiliate TT2PluginBase Physemp::Template::Plugin::User # == line 27 here PerlHandler Apache::Template /Location Location /account_exec/report/ Options ExecCGI SetHandler perl-script AuthType Physemp::Auth AuthName Affiliate TT2PluginBase Physemp::Template::Plugin::Admin # == line 27 here PerlHandler Apache::Template /Location I get the same type error using the TT2ServiceModule directive inside a Location block. I'm using TT 2.10, Apache::Template 0.06, Apache 1.3.27 and mod_perl 1.28. Is there a relatively straightforward way of modifying Apache::Template behavior per directory/location block? Also, the Apache::Template docs don't say where specific configuration directives are allowed/forbidden. Ought I assume that _all_ TT2* directives are forbidden inside Directory/Location blocks?
