I've tried to resolve this with other general perl lists and perl monks.
So as a last resort I am trying you guys (due to it being off topic -
not because of your skills or anything).
If anyone here can tell me why this is not working I would be
grateful...
Yes, its a session module, and no I dont want to use Apache::Session -
It has to run on a plain old apache server (no mod perl)
Thanks much

Subject: Object Madness - Problem starting an object sometimes...
If someone can help me with this I would be indebted.
I am having a strange strange strange problem with my bunch of objects.
I have TestScript that creates a SessionManager object. The
SessionManager object, upon request creates a Session object. Keeps
track of it and returns a sessionID upon success.
When I tell the SessionManager object to create the new session I make a
call like so:
$retval = $sessionmanager->StartSession();
Inside the StartSession, if I do not pass a session ID, it creates a new
session object. If I do a call to the Session package to make a new
session object here like so:
my $session = new Session();
It works fine, my new routine in Session gets called.
If I change this so instead of making it here, it does a call like:
$sessid = $self->MakeNewSession();
and move the exact same call to create the new session down into here it
stops working. the "my $session = new Session();" does not give an error
(warnings are on). But any calls to functions of that object such as:
my $id = $session->SessionID();
Give me an error that says: Can't locate object method "SessionID" via
package "main" at library/sessionmanager.pm line 155.
If I call $session->{'objectneedssave'} I can use it as a hash.
I also noticed that when I have warnings on, all of my bless statements
give a warning that indicates my call to construct the object is not
passing the class. It then defaults back to the sessionmamaher
Here is the code - the session.pm and sessionmanager.pm and
testsession.pl (Tests the session object) go into a sub dir called
library:
Run testsessionmanager.pl to see the problem
In Sessionmanager.pm on line 75 it works fine
When I try the same thing from line 161 it does not work
