Hello, Your mason pages run inside the HTML::Mason::Commands package, so that is where the stuff needs to be exported to. When you use the modules in your MyApp::LoadMods module, they get imported into the MyApp::LoadMods package.
So instead, you can switch to the HTML::Mason::Commands package before you use the modules that export stuff. This will cause it to get exported into the HTML::Mason::Commands package and your mason pages will be able to use the exported things. Example MyApp/LoadMods.pm: package HTML::Mason::Commands; use this; use that; 1; More information: http://www.masonhq.com/docs/manual/Admin.html#external_modules http://www.masonhq.com/?FAQ:Components#h-can_i_use_globals_in_components_ Hope that helps.
