By "during start-up" you mean Apache before-forking startup, I assume, so you don't have a request object yet, which is why $m->current_comp returns nothing.
Apache itself doesn't know where the file is until it is actually requested, so you would probably have to dig through the filesystem somehow to find a file that looks like yours. I'm not sure why you would need to do this during server startup, but you could try: 1. Just call $m->current_comp->path when the component is requested. It's very low-overhead. 2. The comp_root might be helpful as a starting place for digging: $m->interp->comp_root or $ah->interp->comp_root 3. Tell us more about where and when this code is being executed so we can give you more suggestions. ~ John Williams On Tue, 29 Aug 2006, mama wrote: > Hello, > > I try to determine the path of my autohandler during start-up.
