Here's a bit more information:
Given two directives:
$VirtualHost{$host}->{Alias} = [ '/perl/', "$vhostdir/$dir/perl/" ];
$VirtualHost{$host}->{Alias} = $vhost{config}->{Alias};
The first works. The second does not. According to
Apache::PerlSections->dump, %VirtualHost is *exactly* the same when
using both directives - yet it seems the server ignores the Alias
directive when it's assigned from $vhost{config} (either that, mod_perl
fails to pass it to the server).
Also, if I set a variable within httpd.conf to mimic $vhost{config} and
then assign that to $VirtualHost{$host}, it works without a problem.
The issuse is definitely with the variable being read in from an
external file.
Strange, no?
