OK,

This is the same thing I asked about before, but I didn't get much response... 
so let's try this from a more abstract perspective,

If I have a perl module that test rock solid from the command line at accessing 
and returning its data, but fails when running through Apache/mod_perl/mason... 
how do I go about debugging this?

So far I'm using Data Dumper on the PM and CGI sides and using various print 
statements in the PM and I haven't made any headway. I think that something may 
have been caching even though I restart apache each time I make a change to the 
PM, because I was getting out of date data when I dumped the object. I do an 
opendir as the basis to getting the data and put an "or die 'dead'" on the end. 
It didn't fire on failure at first, but once I got past the caching thing, it 
started showing up when the system failed.

Any ideas or methods would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm pretty thourogh about testing the perl modules with test scripts, 
testing for results over many iterations, but it is apparent that I need 
similar testing of the pm/cgi/apache/mod_perl/mason components working as a 
whole. Can anyone point me at some documents discussing best or even good 
practices for this?

Thanks,

Jimbus
