I am trying to convert a simple session-based application under Mason
and mod_perl from Debian Sarge (Apache1.3) to Debian Etch (Apache
2.2.3). There is an <%INIT> section in my main autohandler that reads
and writes a simple session cookie containing only a session key, the
key is then used to track all session data on the server side. If I
comment out all the session code, then Mason operates as expected, so it
seems that the Mason setup is okay.
My biggest hurdle issue has been changes to the old Apache::Cookie
package, which now (in Apache2::Cookie) seems to require passing in
Mason's $r variable to access mod_perl's Apache request object. I
*seem* to be able to write cookies OK with the new Apache2::Cookie->new
and Apache2::Cookie->bake (at least I don't get errors and the page
appears as expected under Firefox) but when I try to read the cookies
with either Apache2::Cookie->fetch or APR::Request::Cookie->fetch, I get
no errors, but Firefox gets a blank page.
The page seems to load immediately (browser shows "done" at the bottom
of the page right away), but "View source" shows nothing at all-- not
even the <HTML></HTML> tags. It is as though the usual Mason error
debugging mechanism is being bypassed and the output cache is being
emptied and then transmitted somehow.
I have tried several other cookbook recipes I found on the net,
including "my $req = APR::Request::Apache2->handle( $r ); " which
produces exactly the same problem. I can't see anything in apache's
access.log from these requests, but error.log contains several of the
following entries (since they are not time-stamped I am assuming they
relate, but there are not as many error messages as there are aborted
requests):
/usr/sbin/apache2: symbol lookup error:
usr/lib/perl5/auto/APR/Request/Apache2/Apache2.so: undefined symbol:
apreq_handle_apache2
I am pretty new to Mason and would appreciate any pointers on what I am
doing wrong.
