You should make sure your login.pl file is unprotected, or you'll get stuck in
a loop. That has bitten a few people, though I think it's probably not your
problem, and I don't know why it should *ever* be a problem since I do "return
OK unless $r->is_initial_req;" in the authenticate() and authorize() methods.
You could also try adding some debug statements to AuthCookieHandler.pm to make
sure authen_ses_key is getting the proper data. Looks like it's not, check out
the line of code that produces the "ses_key_cookie" message.
You can also try adding the following line (will be in the next release) near
the end of the authenticate() subroutine. Might give you another clue.
$r->log_error("Redirecting to $authen_script") if $debug >= 2;
